6043. Chapter 6043: Book of Life and Death 18

However, as of now, the dead air has a lot of benefits. When she absorbed the dead air, the originally depleted true energy was immediately restored, and there was no need to worry about the exhaustion of true energy. At this time, a roar pulled Li Mengjie, who was in deep thought, back to reality. She turned her eyes and looked at the siege beasts rushing towards the city gate, and immediately spread her body to meet them. After a few rises and falls, she came to the top of one of the siege beasts. While the siege beast was aiming at the city gate, Li Mengjie flew down and landed directly on the siege beast. Then, she put her five fingers together, like a sharp blade, and pierced the skin of the siege beast fiercely. At the same time, a faint blood light followed her hand and rushed into the body of the siege beast frantically. With the blood light entering the body, the siege beast suddenly softened its limbs and fell directly to the ground, with painful wails from time to time. Not long after, the eyes of the siege beast were gradually replaced by a blood light. Then, it got up from the ground, moved its limbs again, and rushed to the city gate.

Soon, the siege beast returned to the team of its companions. At this time, the siege beasts were less than 30 meters away from the gate of Zhinan City. If no one stopped them, they would break through the gate at any time. Seeing this, several old men on the city wall said with gloomy faces: "Notify everyone to attack and make sure to stop those siege beasts." However, as soon as the old man's voice fell, a muffled "bang" sound was heard. Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, the siege beast in the middle actually changed its target and rushed to its companion next to it. Under the sharp conical horns, the siege beast's hard skin was like paper, and it was easily pierced, and blood flowed. After dealing with its companions, the siege beast changed its target again and launched an attack on another siege beast. At this moment, the siege beast had already reacted, and quickly abandoned the gate that was close at hand, and turned to face the companion who had defected. Looking at the two siege beasts killing each other, everyone looked at each other with shock in their eyes. After being stunned for a while, everyone locked their eyes on Li Mengjie who was not far away.

She was the only one who had contacted the siege beast just now, so such a change must have come from her. For a while, everyone cheered and guessed Li Mengjie's identity. Compared with the excitement of the true cultivators, the atmosphere in the Yaoyuan Palace was extremely depressing. No one expected that the siege beast they had cultivated with great difficulty would be damaged like this. In the center of the Yaoyuan Palace team, an old man with a stern face looked at a middle-aged man beside him and said in a cold voice: "What's going on? Why did that beast suddenly turn against us?" The middle-aged man quickly replied: "Elder, I just asked those beastmasters, and they said that the other party used some unknown method to cut off the connection between them and the siege beasts." Hearing this, the old man's eyes turned cold, looking at Li Mengjie standing in the air, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what method you use, catch her back for me. Keeping such a person is definitely a big threat to our Yaoyuan Palace." The middle-aged man replied: "Yes, Elder, I will send someone to do it immediately." The old man shook his head and said: "No, I don't feel at ease to hand it over to others, you go yourself."
