And just as the dark green figure cut through the sky and soared into the air like a ghost in the dark night, Ying Qi, who was dressed in a dazzling red robe, suddenly seemed to have all his strength taken away by an invisible force.

His back, which had been as straight as a pine tree, bent unbelievably in front of everyone's astonished gazes, as if it was bearing all the weight of the world.

Seeing this, Fei Xiuwen's face suddenly changed, his eyes were full of worry and anxiety, and he rushed forward without hesitation.

He held up Ying Qi, who was about to fall, with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "Ying Qi, what happened to you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ying Qi forced himself to open his eyes, his eyes flashing with indescribable excitement and relief.

He weakly held Fei Xiuwen's hand, his voice was thin but full of affection: "Senior Brother Fei... I... I finally waited for you."

Before he finished speaking, Ying Qi's body could no longer support him and began to undergo an astonishing transformation.

His skin swelled rapidly in front of everyone's horrified gazes, his muscle texture became unusually rough, and then a thick layer of hair sprouted like mushrooms after rain to cover his entire body. Even his most fitted clothes were torn apart by this force, with fragments scattered everywhere.

What is even more shocking is that Ying Qi's face is also undergoing earth-shaking changes.

Those eyes that were once as gentle as water and bright as stars were now red as blood due to pain, having lost their former peace; the high nose bridge seemed to be flattened by an invisible hand, losing its original outline; the lips were abnormally protruding, and what was even more terrifying was that a pair of sharp and ferocious fangs slowly protruded from the corners of the mouth, flashing a cold light, which made people shudder.

This scene was like a nightmare come true, leaving everyone present dumbfounded and in disbelief.

The Ying Qi in front of them was no longer the gentle and elegant junior brother they were familiar with, but had transformed into the frightening "monster" they saw when they first entered the side courtyard.

This sudden change made the entire air freeze, leaving only Ying Qi's painful gasps and the shocked breathing of the crowd echoing in the silence.

Fei Xiuwen widened his eyes, his gaze filled with disbelief and despair.

He stared closely at the horrific changes happening to Ying Qi, his hands clenched into fists, his nails digging deeply into his palms, but he still couldn't stop it from happening.

He wanted to rush forward and use his own strength to fight against this unknown evil, but facing such a strange and powerful force, he found himself so powerless that he could only watch, his heart filled with pain and helplessness.

Zou Mubai, the usually calm and composed senior brother, has lost his usual calmness at this moment.

He walked quickly to Fei Xiuwen's side, and seeing Ying Qi suffering such inhuman torture, flames of anger surged in his eyes.

It is a strong dissatisfaction with the weak being bullied, and also a deep fear of unknown forces.

"Who? Who did it?!"

Zou Mubai's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with suppressed anger.

His words echoed in the air, as if questioning this unfair fate and challenging the enemies hiding in the dark.

At this moment, a crazy laugh suddenly sounded in the air. The sound was harsh and arrogant, full of pride and ridicule.

"Haha, how about it? Are you satisfied with my masterpiece?" The voice was like a demon from the underworld, making people shudder.

It seems to be enjoying all of this, regarding the suffering of others as its own pleasure, and its cruelty and evil are evident.

He Ronger and the others came back to their senses from their shock when they heard this, and suddenly looked up at the man in dark green clothes floating in the air.

At this moment, his face has completely changed, and he is completely different from the gentle and elegant man he was before.

Although the face was still handsome, it had become more cold and unruly. The slight upward curve of the corners of the eyes added a bit of inviolable sharpness, as if every glance carried a biting chill that struck people's hearts directly.

In the eyes of He Ronger and others, this new face was no longer simply beautiful, but turned into deep disgust and hatred. They could not forget that it was this seemingly charming appearance that hid the terrible conspiracy and means that made Ying Qi suffer such inhuman torture.

Xu Chong stood aside, looking anxiously at Ying Qi who was experiencing great pain.

His voice trembled slightly due to nervousness, and he asked Zou Mubai and others for help: "Brother Zou, what should we do? Ying Qi...he seems to be losing control!"

As he spoke, his eyes were filled with worry and helplessness.

Fei Xiuwen and Zou Mubai exchanged glances quickly. Without further words, they understood each other.

They knew very well that in such an urgent situation, any hesitation could lead to irreversible consequences.

So, the two of them acted almost at the same time. They waved their hands lightly, and suddenly two ropes condensed from spiritual power appeared in the air, flashing with a faint light, appearing both mysterious and powerful.

They moved in tacit understanding, one on the left and one on the right, and ran around Ying Qi at an astonishing speed.

The two spiritual ropes seemed to have life, moving flexibly with their steps, and finally interweaving into a dense net in mid-air, tightly wrapping Ying Qi inside.

Their movements were swift and precise, and every detail revealed their profound skills and tacit cooperation.

"Hold on, Ying Qi! We won't let you hurt anyone!" Fei Xiuwen shouted loudly while struggling to maintain the ropes, trying to give Ying Qi some comfort and strength with words.

Zou Mubai also did not stop. He stared at Ying Qi's changes and silently thought about his next strategy in his mind.

He knew that this was only a temporary relief. If he wanted to truly rescue Ying Qi, he needed to find the mastermind behind the scenes and remove the curse and restraints on him.

But at this moment, all they can do is to try their best to protect Ying Qi and prevent him from losing himself in this painful struggle.

"Haha, it's useless." The man in dark green clothes laughed wildly in the air. The mocking laughter was like a sharp blade, cutting the nerves of everyone present.

"With just the two of you, at the Nascent Soul stage, you are simply not able to contain the cursed power in his body. Once the transformation is complete, his cultivation will surge like a gusher, far beyond the limits you can imagine. All your struggles now are in vain."

He Ronger frowned when she heard that, and a hint of determination flashed in her clear eyes.

She looked up at the smug man, an unyielding rage rising in her heart.

She felt extremely disgusted and angry at this attitude of arrogance and contempt for others.
