After a brief rest, the drums sounded again. The flesh-and-blood grinder began to turn once more, but this time, it was completely different. On Bai Lingmiao's side, everyone had become utterly frenzied, attempting to suffer fatal injuries and die under the Saintess's blessing.
Noticing that something was amiss, a group of chicken-footed men wearing drainage masks began to surround Bai Lingmiao. The White Lotus followers were not to be trifled with, and they quickly formed an array with Bai Lingmiao at its center.
And just then, on the other side, the ground of flesh and blood began to bulge, moving stealthily toward Bai Lingmiao. But before it could get close, a streak of red descended from the sky, slamming down on that rising bulge. With a squelch, foul-smelling blood quickly seeped out of the earth.
Li Huowang stomped down, crushing a head directly under his foot. Wiping the blood from his face, he stepped forward from the flesh-and-blood grinder. "I made it just in time!"
