Seeing those people ignore his warning and rush to their deaths, Evan Yang could only sigh, but he still tried to help. At last, someone listened, thought it over, and left.
Dark Soulfiend frowned when he saw that person leave. Had his trap failed? He was disappointed and tried again, sending his artifact to brush past the man.
But the man glanced at it and left anyway, leaving Dark Soulfiend confused. At last, he revealed himself and blocked the man's path.
"Don't go," Dark Soulfiend said.
"Who are you? Why are you stopping me?" the man asked, staring at Dark Soulfiend.
"Who am I? I'm here to take your life." Dark Soulfiend's gourd flew out, releasing black light that enveloped the man.
Soon, the man was immobilized like the others.
But Dark Soulfiend didn't immediately devour him—instead, he asked, "Tell me, why did you suddenly leave?"
At that moment, the man couldn't move at all. Terrified, he stared at Dark Soulfiend and said, "So it was real after all."
"What was real?" Dark Soulfiend asked.
"Someone sent me a voice transmission just now, warning me there was danger and telling me not to approach your artifact," the man said, regretting he hadn't left sooner but had slowed down instead.
"Who? Who was it?" Dark Soulfiend was shocked. Had someone discovered his secret?
"I don't know," the man replied.
"You won't say? Then I'll kill you!" Dark Soulfiend raged.
The man cried out in fear, "Senior, save me!" At this point, he was completely relying on Evan Yang, hoping Evan would rescue him.
Evan Yang watched from the side, thought it over, and decided it was time to confront the other party and ask about the rumor. He flashed out, smashed the gourd aside, and freed the man.
The man was instantly able to move and rejoiced, "Thank you, Senior!"
"You should leave now," Evan Yang said.
The man hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly slipped away. Meanwhile, Dark Soulfiend was glaring furiously at Evan Yang.
"How dare you knock my artifact away!" Dark Soulfiend shouted angrily.
