The ability "Kitty Grants You Three Lives" had already been exhausted, so when the segment of the phalanx closed in, the "Undaunted Martyr Substitute" shielded Xu Huo. According to past experiences, when the dummy appears to substitute for the holder's death, it not only blocks a lethal attack but also reduces the prop's power, preventing further harm to the holder. But this phalanx was different; after penetrating the dummy, its effect remained undiminished as it struck toward Xu Huo!
The process wasn't long, which meant Xu Huo was still unable to free himself under Dou Shengnan's control. The Shadow Personality appeared in front of him, reaching to block the phalanx, but was restrained by Dou Shengnan's Materialized Item, which had been prepared beforehand. Her Materialized Item also patched from the back, sealing Xu Huo's escape, determined to kill him here!
