Deep within the main hall, "Jun Jing, if I'm not mistaken, this little girl has a profound connection to you, doesn't she?"

The monstrous demon king, a creature that resembled neither fish nor fowl, was trapped within the sealing barrier, a smug and arrogant smile on his face.

If Jun Liuyue were here now, she would definitely notice that this beast looks exactly like the beast deity enshrined in the temple.

Opposite the Demon King sat a middle-aged man, dressed in a brown robe, surrounded by a black aura.

His appearance bore a striking resemblance to Jun Liuyue, and he looked up at the scene in the sky.

"This Flame Chess is truly amazing!" The Demon King laughed heartily. "Jun Jing, can you really resist the urge to save your daughter? You human, you are truly cold-blooded!"

"Your daughter is about to die! Are you just going to watch her be devoured and torn apart by the demon beast?" The Demon King stared at Jun Jing in disbelief.

I can't believe Junjing would remain unmoved.

Bang! The scene in the sky suddenly changed, and the enormous demonic beast crashed heavily to the ground from mid-air.

The Heaven-Asking Sword pierced through the heart meridian of the demon beast.

That red figure stepped on the demon beast's chest, and with a swift movement, ripped out its still-beating black heart and crushed it!

The Demon King was dumbfounded by what he saw. How could there be such a cold-blooded woman! That was a demon beast of the Heavenly Rank.

She actually died from that fall?!

And most importantly, this brat figured out the key to completely killing the demon beast: digging out its heart! Once its heart is dug out, the demon beast will surely die! And the most crucial thing is—this brat even shattered it.

Without even blinking, it was bloody!

The Demon King suddenly looked at Jun Jing, only to see a slight smile playing on the other's lips.

"Ha, your daughter, Jun Jing, is a madwoman too!" The Demon King wished he could devour Jun Jing. "Why can't you see the truth? If you open the seal now, I can reunite you and your daughter! Is it worth sacrificing so much for some innocent civilians?!"

If it weren't for that bastard Jun Jing reinforcing the barrier seal, it would have left this wretched place long ago!

For the past ten years or so, every time the Demon King saw Jun Jing, he felt an urge to grind his teeth in hatred, but this bastard just happened to be right in front of him.

As soon as I open my eyes, I see Junjing's deadpan face.

The Demon King was devastated. If it could, it would have chewed that bastard to pieces without hesitation!

"Give up on that idea." Jun Jing slowly raised his head and scoffed, "Impossible."

"You are truly stubborn!" The Demon King spat. "For the sake of some insignificant commoners, you're willing to never see your wife and daughter again? Now, your daughter has been thrown in here too. Ha... Jun Jing, do you intend for your daughter to stay here until she dies of old age?"

Upon hearing this, Jun Jing's previously forced composure underwent a subtle change. Although he quickly returned to normal, for the Demon King who had been observing Jun Jing for over a decade, those boring years had long since allowed him to thoroughly understand these subtle changes in Jun Jing's expression.

It was certain that Jun Jing had panicked! Hahaha! The Demon King laughed loudly, "I thought you really had no emotions, tsk tsk tsk, it seems you're not entirely heartless after all. Jun Jing, if you release the seal now, I can promise you I'll release this little brat, how about it?"

"You're dreaming." Jun Jing glanced coldly at the Demon King and closed his eyes.

He stopped talking.

The Demon King let out a low roar and slammed into the barrier. It was going to devour this bastard, right now!

Jun Jing's hand tightened suddenly within his sleeve, and his thoughts sank slightly. This girl... she's grown so much.

When A-Li gave him her daughter, she was still an infant.

It was such a small clump, with veins clearly visible, that it looked like it would break at the slightest pressure.

Junjing opened his eyes; it was his daughter.

Moon.

His Liuyue.

Junjing was overjoyed to see his daughter, but if he could, he would rather never see this little girl again.

Meanwhile, in the dilapidated hall, more and more demonic beasts appeared. Liu Yue kicked one of the demons away, grabbed Mo Wei's arm, and flung her away.

Using spiritual power to transmit a message, "The Soul-Locking Jade is in the side hall in front of you. Find it."

With Mo Wei's strength, she was unable to hold back these demonic beasts, but she sensed that the Soul-Locking Jade was in the side hall.

Soul-Locking Jade? Mo Wei was startled and immediately reacted. As the demon beast pounced, she quickly pushed open the door, but was still almost thrown inside by the impact of the spiritual energy.

Fortunately, Jun Liuyue's spirit whip grabbed the demon beast's hind leg, and the red figure turned in mid-air, blocking the entrance to the side hall.

With hands forming a mudra, the side hall was firmly sealed off!

"noob!"

The girl suddenly raised her hand, and a contract totem appeared behind her, followed by...

A few small ones rushed out, but the number of these demons far exceeded Jun Liuyue's estimate.

Meanwhile, Mo Wei got up from the ground; she had almost been knocked unconscious.

Soul-Locking Jade...

She quickly rummaged through the pile of scrap metal.

Soon, a blue jade stone came into view—a Heavenly Rank magic artifact! This must be it.

Mo Wei tucked the Soul-Locking Jade into her bosom, but at that moment, a demon rushed out of the void and bit down hard on Mo Wei's arm—

At the critical moment, a flash of red appeared in Mo Wei's eyes, and then she was roughly lifted up.

"Walk!"

Although the hall was dilapidated, it was airtight, and there were demons and monsters behind it. There was no way to retreat; they could only move forward.

As they walked, two doors appeared before them.

"One gate to life, one gate to death."

The left door was littered with human bones, while the right door was spotless.

"Go to the right."

Mo Wei quickly replied.

"Left."

Liu Yue grabbed Mo Wei and rushed into the door on the left.

ah!

This woman is insane! With so many human bones, why is she rushing towards the left door?

It’s over!

The expected pain did not occur, and instead of a palace filled with broken copper and scrap iron, they found themselves in a place resembling a valley.

"Where exactly is this place?"

Mo Wei collapsed to the ground with a thud. "Can we... still get out?"

I don't think I'll have to stay in this place forever.
