These high-ranking officials were extremely anxious and hurriedly prepared to activate the arena's barrier. This barrier was extremely special; apart from the Grand Elder, no one else could activate it.

At this moment, the Grand Elder's hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat. Clearly, activating the barrier required considerable effort and time. The other members of the Bai family were also frantically trying to activate it, anxiously waiting on the sidelines, fearing that if the barrier was activated too late, Bai Ying would die.

However, to everyone's surprise, just as everyone was on edge, Bai Ying, wielding her longsword, lightly touched the ground with her feet and charged towards Kui Lang like a white lightning bolt. Before anyone could react, Bai Ying's sword had already pierced Kui Lang's head with pinpoint accuracy.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze. The previously frenzied Kui Lang suddenly seemed to have all its strength drained away, its body stiffening abruptly. It slowly turned its head, its murderous eyes fixed intently on Hua Mujian.

Hua Mujian's face instantly turned ashen. He stared at Kui Lang in horror, his legs trembling, almost unable to stand. He couldn't understand how, at the moment Bai Ying pierced Kui Lang's head, he had completely lost control of Kui Lang!

Could it be that Bai Ying knows how to free these demonic beasts from her control and restore their freedom?

The thought struck Hua Mujian like a thunderbolt. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he instinctively looked at Bai Ying, trying to reassure himself that it was just a coincidence and that no one could possibly do something like that so easily.

However, in that instant, Hua Mujian caught a fleeting glimpse of mockery in Bai Ying's eyes. Bai Ying smiled at him, a wicked smile curving her lips.

Hua Mujian couldn't help but shiver, a chill he had never felt before shooting straight from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
