A thick scent of burning reached them as the long tentacles fell to the ground. As the flames dispersed, nothing but charred remains were visible, unclear what their original form might have been.
The tributors of the Xu Family began to clap their hands in celebration. Wanshan and others also breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were not clear on what the creature was, they were relieved to have destroyed it.
"Not good, it's not dead!" Just as Ye Tian was about to step forward, he suddenly felt a surge of True Qi wave beneath his feet and immediately alerted everyone.
But he was still a step too late. Several tentacles broke through the ice from the ground, their already gaping maws landing on the heads of several Xu Family tributors, sucking them away from the ground.
Blood suddenly splattered down, as those tentacles drained the blood from the bodies of the Xu Family tributors.
