The battle erupted in an instant.
It wasn't just the True Monarch of Contained Light and Floating Heaven who realized the tables had turned. Sooner or later, everyone present discovered their own situations had been completely reversed.
"HAHAHA!"
High in the heavens, World Purger Fei Xue laughed boisterously. On the other side, Ang Xiao's face darkened, yet he didn't seem overly disappointed.
'It's far too early for that. You think you've already broken free?'
A cold glint shone from his narrow eyes, hidden beneath layers of haze. 'This game, set for the attainment of the Fruit of Celestial Fire, wasn't laid by me alone. Do you really think you can escape?'
He had escaped once before, finding freedom from his cage by fleeing into the Netherworld.
And what of this nameless beast before him?
Could he do the same?
At this thought, a spark of anticipation joined the profound coldness in Ang Xiao's eyes. 'If he really can pull it off, it might not be such a bad thing!'
