Jiang Xinyao clenched her fists and glared at them, saying, "You are shameless."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a purple figure rushed toward them, and in an instant, the people who had spoken earlier all fell to the ground.

Jiang Yuetong stepped on one of the men's heads, looked down at him casually, and said, "So, I forced you to come?"

The man who had fallen to the ground had bloodshot eyes. He saw a blood spider rushing towards them, and he opened his mouth to speak but could not make a sound.

"Or was it I who brought you here by kidnapping?"

Seeing that no one dared to respond, Jiang Yuetong curled her lips into a cold smile, released her foot, and kicked the man toward the charging Blood Demon Spider.

"ah--"

The man screamed in agony, and was quickly torn to pieces, lifeless.

The Blood Demon Spider, now possessing sentience, looked at Jiang Yuetong with puzzled eyes.

Why did you send it over again?

Upon seeing this, someone reacted and shouted angrily, "Jiang Yuetong, how dare you indiscriminately kill innocent people!"

“Anyone who dies by my hand is not innocent,” Jiang Yuetong said calmly.

Some people were dissatisfied, but dared not speak out.

Jiang Yuetong's gaze swept over them one by one, "You'd better shut your mouths. If you dare to spout nonsense again, I won't mind stretching my muscles a bit."

...

As time passed, Jiang Yuetong had circled the entrance to the underground palace several times, dealing with many Blood Demon Spiders along the way.

"This can't go on; we'll eventually die here."

As she spoke, Jiang Yuetong looked up at the stone wall above her.

Li Qingrong was exhausted. She said breathlessly, "But apart from the stone door to the underground palace, we can't open any other places here."

The only open stone door is where the Blood Spiders came in; the only way out is to kill them all.

That's easier said than done.

Jiang Yuetong was covered in blood. She gripped the long whip in her hand, raised her hand, and swung it fiercely at the Blood Demon Spider blocking her way.

"We all fell from up there, now we can only try to see if we can open it again."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Yuetong soared into the air and flew upwards.

After feeling around on the stone wall with both hands, they found no mechanisms or similar things.

"It seems we have no choice but to split it open." Jiang Yuetong said, putting away the long whip and taking out the Jade Bone Demon Fan from her spatial storage.

The Jade Bone Demon Fan was extremely powerful and should have been able to cleave through this place. However, after she gathered her spiritual power and struck it, she immediately spat out blood with a "poof".

I was careless!

Jiang Yuetong collapsed to the ground.

Lu Jingliang, who had been watching her, quickly got up but before he could rush out of the barrier, he saw someone suddenly appear and hug Jiang Yuetong.

Heart Devourer caught her and gently landed on the ground. He flashed back into the barrier and laid her lightly on the ground, asking anxiously, "Master, how are you feeling?"

Jiang Yuetong frowned. "We've been attacked by the formation's backlash."

The formation here is very strange; it can completely reflect back the attack power, something she had never seen in the book.

At this moment, Jiang Xinyao rushed over to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth and called out "Sister" with concern in her eyes.

Jiang Yuetong raised her hand and gently rubbed her head, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Jiang Xinyao sighed, her voice low and somber: "This place is so strange, there are formations everywhere."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuetong looked up.

"The underground palace is so magnificent, and it's protected by so many formations. There must be something here that it doesn't want to be discovered."

After saying that, Jiang Yuetong suddenly coughed.

A metallic, sweet taste rose in her throat, and she clenched her teeth to make herself appear normal.
