# Chapter 1270: Heaven-Sacrifice Spell Array
So Jiangnan quickly took Grandma Rexie and started giving everyone cupping therapy!
Pfft~ it's the Mermaid's Kiss!
Everyone who was kissed by Rexie gained the ability to breathe underwater!
But it grossed everyone out, feeling like they'd been kissed by a sunfish!
Soon it was Xiao Mila's turn, but she firmly refused!
Serious face: (๑•̀◠•́) "Mila can only be kissed by Jiangnan Gege! No one else gets to kiss!"
Grandma Rexie had a smile on her face!
(﹌╭͜ʖ╮﹌) "Just let me kiss you, otherwise you'll suffocate to death!"
Mila still shook her head: "No kiss, Mila won't die even if she suffocates, and kissing won't help!"
Even if she could breathe underwater, her constitution would immediately refresh back to the initial state!
Mila didn't care about the pain of suffocation at all!
Jiangnan's eyes were full of distress. Although Mila wouldn't die, hypoxia would still be very uncomfortable!
Qian Benying looked at Mila with shock. What kind of divine baby doll was this?
Rexie granted everyone present the ability to breathe underwater, and she herself became weak!
Jiangnan began to ask Grandma Rexie about the situation!
"How did you all get captured?"
Rexie sighed and slowly began to explain!
It turned out that most of the people currently imprisoned in Pawn Guard were Alice's loyal followers!
And those in the air prison were even members of the Lantis Elders Council!
Shark had disagreed with Alice and directly led a rebellion!
He locked up everyone who supported him. The reason he didn't kill them was that Shark's blue blood wasn't pure enough!
To activate the Origin Staff, one had to sacrifice people with pure bloodlines!
Many mermaids had already been drained by Shark!
As she spoke, Rexie began to cry!
(´༎ຶ╭ᯅ╮༎ຶ) "Sigh~ what a tragedy! We went to great lengths to help Alice escape, carrying hope!"
"Who would have thought it would come to this?"
Jiangnan looked thoughtful, his eyes darting around!
"Grandma, don't worry. We're Alice's friends. We've come to help Alice and stop Shark's conspiracy!"
"That Origin Stone at the center of the altar... isn't there a shield around it? How do we open that shield?"
Rexie wiped her tears: "That spell array can only be opened by someone with the purest bloodline activating the Origin Staff!"
"Otherwise, even a god couldn't touch the Origin Stone!"
Jiangnan's eyes flickered. The Origin Staff was the key to everything, wasn't it?
"Where is the Origin Staff? And what's the deal with that Heaven-Sacrifice Spell Array?"
Rexie: "The Origin Staff is the Atlas Scepter, a symbol of power. It's usually kept in the palace sanctuary, which is also heavily guarded!"
"That Heaven-Sacrifice Spell Array was created by King Atlas. It can maximize the power of the Origin Stone!"
"Legend has it that the Origin Stones have the characteristic of attracting each other. A thousand years ago, King Atlas raised the staff to sacrifice to heaven, but it triggered the wrath of heaven, destroying Lantis!"
"And that large Origin Stone descended during that heavenly wrath!"
Jiangnan was astonished. The Origin Stone fell with a meteor?
Then where did the one embedded in the Origin Staff come from?
A divine object capable of evolving an entire race just fell from outer space?
If Shark really used the Heaven-Sacrifice Spell Array to summon heavenly wrath—and enough to destroy the ancient kingdom of Lantis, sinking the continental shelf four kilometers deep into the seabed—
The Fish Kingdom would surely perish, countless casualties would occur, and the whole world would be affected!
Thinking of this, Jiangnan shuddered violently!
Was Shark playing this big?
He absolutely couldn't be allowed to succeed!
The more he learned, the more questions Jiangnan had. A sense of crisis enveloped him!
But the Origin Staff was the key to everything. He had to find a way to get his hands on it!
Once he had it, even Shark wouldn't dare act recklessly!
The Heaven-Sacrifice Spell Array naturally couldn't proceed smoothly!
As Jiangnan was thinking, Qian Benying felt like she was going crazy!
The three-day itch wasn't over, but her hands and feet were bound, and she couldn't move at all!
The unbearable itching made Qian Benying regret not having steeled herself to just cut it off and be done with it!
It was only a few ounces of flesh anyway!
Right now, the only thing in the field that could move was Jiangnan's vine spirit weapon!
So... ask him to scratch for her?
Pfft! How could she possibly open her mouth to say that?
If she let Jiangnan help her, wouldn't that be letting him take advantage?
And there were so many people here, with no cover at all!
It would be a live broadcast!
No way! She would rather die than do that!
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1000!]
[Resentment from Qian Benying...]
If it weren't for Jiangnan, how could she be suffering like this?
Sure enough, whenever she ran into him, nothing good ever happened!
[Resentment from Qian Benying...]
At this moment, Qian Benying's resentment value was skyrocketing, and she was grinding her teeth!
Creaking sounds!
Jiangnan couldn't help but be surprised. She was working for him, and still had so much resentment?
Was she still uncomfortable?
He looked at Qian Benying, seeing her pained expression, and spoke:
"Hey, is it because Grandma Rexie's cupping therapy didn't take properly earlier, and you still can't breathe?"
"Do you want me to send Grandma over for another round?"
That shouldn't be it? Everyone else could breathe underwater. Why was Qian Benying still...
Qian Benying: ???
God damn cupping therapy! She looked down at Grandma Rexie and shuddered violently!
"No... no need!"
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1000!]
[Resentment from...]
Jiangnan was stunned. She was still sending resentment like this? It wasn't that he cared about Qian Benying, but he was worried that if she kept this up, she might betray him!
Just then, Jiangnan suddenly remembered something, and his gaze fell on Qian Benying's chest!
A look of realization: "You... you're not still itchy, are you?"
Qian Benying's eyes were red: "If you know, why ask? Dammit!"
[Resentment from Qian Benying...]
Jiangnan's vine spirit weapon extended behind him, and his expression turned serious!
"Do you want me to scratch it for you? You look like you're in a lot of pain. As a teammate, taking care of my members' feelings is what I, as the captain, should do!"
"How could I bear to watch my own employee suffer?"
Qian Benying's eyes went wide!
"No! Absolutely not! Try scratching me once and see!"
She couldn't bear it? It was all because of him that she was in this pain!
He was the culprit!
Jiangnan looked thoughtful: "The ancients said, 'A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.' Saying 'no' actually means 'yes.' 'Yes' means 'no.'"
"That's how it is! The ancients don't deceive me! I'll help you!"
Qian Benying panicked: "Which ancient said that? I think it was you! Don't scratch me! Go away!"
With so many people watching, didn't she have any face left?
But Jiangnan didn't care: "Don't want it? Got it, got it!"
Qian Benying was going crazy: "Fine! I want it, okay?"
Jiangnan grinned: "You said it yourself, don't blame me!"
[Resentment from Qian Benying +1001!]
You master of tricks!
I've fallen for your trap!
Just as Jiangnan was about to rescue Qian Benying from her suffering—
Clank!
The sound of a door bolt came again. Jiangnan's eyes widened!
He retracted the vine branches at lightning speed and put on a look of utter indignation!
Well... he was indeed indignant!
Of all times, now? Weren't they interrupting his help to a teammate?
The others also quickly put on pained expressions!
A Zhen walked in, dragging Damon!
She was rosy-cheeked and full of energy!
▀₍͠°‿͠°₎▀ง(꜂꜆›´ﾛ`‹꜂꜆)
Damon, on the other hand, looked weak, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes!
Ah Zhen looked around and sneered. The oxygen reduction effect was pretty good!
Everyone looked quite miserable, especially that pink-haired girl!
She was rolling her eyes, twitching and kicking her legs. She looked like she wouldn't live long. Just one glance made you feel her pain!
˚*̥✿(๐꒪ͦ﹃꒪ͦ๐)✿˚*̥
Qian Benying felt like she was dying of pain, and even regretted refusing Jiangnan's help!
Ah Zhen patted Damon's rear: "Go on, my handsome little treasure! I'll put in a good word for you with Lord Shark!"
"Just endure it for now. I'll definitely work things out and get you out of here!"
Damon stroked Ah Zhen's hammer face with deep affection!
(꜂꜆‾́3‾́꜂꜆) "My little hammer! It all depends on you! I guarantee that the next interrogation will be even more exciting than this one!"
Ah Zhen's eyes lit up: "I'm already looking forward to it! I'm off now!"
