"break!"

With Qin Yuan's loud shout, the Yang Soul shattered.

Qin Zhiruo, however, was exhausted and her face was flushed. The intense battle she had just fought, though exhilarating, had also greatly depleted her spiritual energy.

"Zhiruo, I didn't expect you to become so amazing in just a few days!"

Qin Yuan sincerely praised Qin Zhiruo, saying that the strength she had just displayed was in no way inferior to that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal at the peak of his cultivation.

Qin Zhiruo didn't speak, but instead gasped for breath, thinking with a touch of pride:

"Hmph, you big idiot, we can defeat Yang Hun even before you come in!"

Even now, Qin Zhiruo still harbors resentment towards Chen Tianwen.

Qin Yuan was in a great mood. He had been trapped here for several days. Although Yang Hun's combat power was not very high, its recovery ability was very fast. At the beginning, Qin Yuan was able to gain the upper hand.

However, as time went on, Qin Yuan's energy consumption was also enormous. The elixirs he carried to restore his immortal spiritual energy were also exhausted, which is why he has been struggling to hold on until now.

If Qin Zhiruo hadn't arrived in time, Qin Yuan estimated that he would have been worn down to death by this yang spirit.

Qin Yuan suddenly thought of something and said to Qin Zhiruo:

"Zhiruo, when you sent a message to gather the sect elders, was there some trouble you encountered?"

Qin Zhiruo waved her hand, unwilling to bring up the matter, because as soon as she did, Chen Tianwen's annoying face would appear before her eyes.

Qin Yuan didn't know why Qin Zhiruo, who was usually carefree and talkative, was so quiet today.

However, although the Yang Soul has been destroyed, the key is how to leave this formation.

If it weren't for the formation, Qin Yuan would have given up fighting the Yang Soul and left long ago!

Thinking of this, Qin Yuan had no choice but to place his hopes on Qin Zhiruo and continued:

"Zhiruo, I accidentally stepped on a trap and ended up here, but I can't get out. How did you get in?"

Qin Zhiruo had recovered somewhat, and hearing her cousin's endless questions, she spoke up somewhat impatiently:

"Of course I mastered the formation and walked in!"

"You? You've mastered formations?"

Qin Yuan shook his head. He knew whether Qin Zhiruo understood formations or not. Apart from using brute force to break formations, Qin Zhiruo knew almost nothing about formations.

Qin Yuan had personally tested the strength of the formation, so he simply couldn't believe that Qin Zhiruo could have controlled the formation to enter.

Qin Zhiruo sat cross-legged on the ground, beginning to regulate her breathing, and didn't forget to say to Qin Yuan:

"Oh, cousin, don't worry about it. In two more hours, the formation will be broken. Let's just wait."

Seeing that Qin Zhiruo had begun to regulate her breathing, Qin Yuan had no way to disturb her and could only shake his head helplessly, searching for an exit within the light membrane.

Although the Immortal Mist Sect had sent many elders this time, none of them were proficient in formations, so Qin Yuan naturally couldn't place his hopes on external forces.

Moreover, Qin Zhiruo's words were clearly unreliable. Qin Yuan had no choice but to try to find out if there were any loopholes in the formation himself.

After Qin Zhiruo finished regulating her breathing, she saw Qin Yuan wandering around inside the light membrane and couldn't help but find it amusing. She then spoke:

"Cousin, don't you believe me?"

Qin Yuan shook his head, continuing to search for gaps in the formation, and said without turning his head:

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that instead of saying you can control this formation, you might as well just tell me that you've already reached the Immortal Lord realm. That would be much easier for me to accept!"

Qin Zhiruo hadn't expected her cousin to be so pessimistic about her, and said somewhat defiantly:

"How about we make a bet? We'll bet on whether this formation will activate in an hour. If I win, cousin, you'll grant me one request, okay?"

Upon hearing Qin Zhiruo's words, Qin Yuan stopped searching and looked at Qin Zhiruo with doting affection. As the only girl in the Qin family of this generation, Qin Zhiruo had been pampered by her brothers since childhood.

Let alone losing a bet, Qin Yuan would agree to any request Qin Zhiruo made without hesitation.

So Qin Yuan smiled and said:

"Okay, but what if the formation doesn't activate?"

Qin Zhiruo stamped her foot and said:

"impossible!"

When Qin Zhiruo entered, Chen Tianwen told her that he could fully control the formation within three hours. Two hours had already passed, which is why Qin Zhiruo was so confident that the formation would definitely be activated in another hour.

Could Chen Tianwen possibly be lying?

The thought crossed Qin Zhiruo's mind, and her face flushed with embarrassment.

Qin Yuan smiled and nodded, agreeing to the plan. He also gave up the search and sat down next to Qin Zhiruo to wait.

Outside the light membrane, Chen Tianwen was concentrating on refining the formation. After his strength advanced, Chen Tianwen's comprehension had also improved significantly, and his speed of understanding the formation had become extremely fast.

The immortal array that originally required three hours to refine was mastered by Chen Tianwen in just over two hours.

So almost the instant Qin Yuan sat down, Chen Tianwen stretched out his finger, gently touched the light membrane, and softly whispered:

"break!"

The light membrane that had rendered even Qin Yuan, a Great Luo Golden Immortal at the peak of his cultivation, helpless shattered instantly.

Qin Zhiruo and Qin Yuan naturally saw the light membrane shatter. Qin Yuan looked at Qin Zhiruo in surprise, thinking that his cousin had really mastered the formation, which was why he had broken the immortal formation as soon as he agreed.

Qin Zhiruo, however, was overjoyed and couldn't help but praise Chen Tianwen in her heart for being so amazing, managing to master the immortal array so quickly.

Chen Tianwen then appeared before Qin Zhiruo and Qin Yuan.

“Young Master Qin, I am Chen Tianwen, the city lord of Bu Huo City.”

Chen Tianwen bowed slightly to Qin Yuan, who then realized that Chen Tianwen must have broken the formation, and quickly returned the bow, saying:

"Qin Yuan thanks Brother Chen for helping me out of this predicament!"

Qin Zhiruo then ran to Chen Tianwen's side, took his arm, and said:

"Tianwen, you lied to me! You said it would take three hours, but you broke the formation in just two. Why are you being so humble in front of me?"

Qin Zhiruo linked arms with Chen Tianwen, appearing very excited, unaware that her soft spot was pressed against Chen Tianwen's arm, causing him to feel a surge of desire.

Qin Zhiruo's actions surprised Qin Yuan so much that his mouth dropped open, but then his gaze toward Chen Tianwen turned somewhat unfriendly.

After all, every girl's brother would feel uncomfortable seeing his sister so intimate with other men.

Chen Tianwen also noticed the change in Qin Yuan's eyes and gently nudged Qin Zhiruo.
