A strange demonic power spread throughout the area. A gentle breeze blew, and the spider lily on Ling Xinghe's chest scattered in the wind, with countless dark petals flying all over the sky and merging into the void.
Then, an even more shocking scene unfolded: countless black dots appeared in the void, gradually expanding until they formed millions of pitch-black flower buds.
"What...what is this?!" Ling Ling exclaimed in horror, "This is divine power! The power of another god, different from Nuwa and Taotie!"
Snap! Snap!
With the sound of an egg breaking, millions of flower buds slowly bloomed, and the entire world seemed to turn into a sea of spider lilies. Whether in the sky, on the ground, or even in the void, spider lilies were everywhere you looked!
At this moment, Ling Ling suddenly remembered something, and her face turned ugly as she said, "Back then, you used the power of this deity to ambush Mother!"
"Hahaha... As expected of my daughter, she is indeed intelligent! That bitch controlled Nuwa's divine power, and even if I attacked her by surprise, I could not do anything to her. Fortunately, I was protected by the Mandate of Heaven and favored by the Flower Goddess. With the help of the Flower Goddess's power, I was able to successfully kill that bitch and seize Nuwa's divine power!"
Upon hearing the cause of her mother's death, Ling Ling's eyes instantly turned red, and she charged towards Ling Xinghe as if she had lost her mind. However, countless blooming spider lilies were already waiting for her in her path.
The blooming spider lilies swarmed towards her, frantically draining the divine power of Nuwa from her body.
Below, Fang Xiu frowned deeply. The Black Lotus of the Other Shore? This small Taotie Divine Kingdom has actually seen the power of three gods appear at the same time. What secrets does this place hold?
The surging red spider lilies forced Ling Ling to retreat steadily. The red spider lilies were not strong, but they were very peculiar. When they landed on Ling Ling, they would be crushed by Nuwa's divine power, but in doing so, they would also consume some of her divine power.
If you let them fall on your body, they will take root and sprout, firmly embedding themselves in your flesh and blood, frantically absorbing nutrients.
"Ling'er! We can't fight head-on, we should retreat!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Xiangqing quickly called out to Ling Ling above.
Ling Ling felt the dwindling power of Nuwa within her body, glared hatefully at Ling Xinghe, and decided to retreat.
She unleashed her final attack, whipping her snake tail to send a five-colored ribbon soaring through the air, intercepting all the drifting spider lilies.
Then, she instantly appeared beside Fang Yao: "Yao Yao, this place is dangerous, come with your sister quickly."
Facing her sister's anxious gaze, Fang Yao, in Fang Xiu's arms, expressionlessly stretched out her little hand to her sister. Just as Ling Ling was overjoyed and was about to take the hand, she saw Fang Yao flip her little hand, and a cold light appeared under her sleeve.
It was clearly a sharp dagger.
Pfft!
The dagger plunged into Ling Ling's heart.
Ling Ling's smile froze, and a look of pain flashed across her face. However, it wasn't from the physical injury, but rather from Fang Yao's actions.
Ling Ling smiled sadly: "Yao Yao, I know you still hold a grudge about what happened back then. I'm sorry, but you're too weak now. You're not strong enough to kill me. Come with me now and let's go to a safe place. If you ever try to kill me again, I will never fight back."
She possessed the bloodline of Nuwa, so it was impossible for her to die simply by having her heart pierced.
“Ling Yao, you can’t blame your sister for what happened back then. She had her own reasons. If you have to blame someone, blame me.” Bai Xiangqing recalled the past with a pained expression on his face.
Fang Yao looked at the miserable woman in front of her expressionlessly and said indifferently, "I won't go with you. Wherever he goes, I will go."
Ling Ling looked at Fang Xiu and said urgently, "My friend, you've seen the situation. We're no match for Ling Xinghe for now. The only thing we can do is escape first and then make further plans. Take Ling Yao with you and come with us."
In contrast to Ling Ling's anxiety, Fang Xiu remained calm. He glanced at Ling Ling and said indifferently, "There's no need for that. Also, her name isn't Ling Yao, but... Fang Yao."
Fang Yao, nestled in his arms, trembled slightly. She looked up at Fang Xiu, her empty eyes seemingly filled with some inexplicable emotion.
Upon hearing this, Ling Ling was stunned. Bai Xiangqing frowned, and the other members of the Holy Sect were even more furious, thinking that Fang Xiu was simply insane. If he didn't run away now, when would he?
“My friend, Ling Xinghe now possesses the power of two goddesses, Nuwa and the Flower Goddess, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. You should come with us and escape first,” Ling Ling urged anxiously.
She thought she couldn't persuade her sister, but at least she could persuade Fang Xiu. After all, her sister had always hated her, but Fang Xiu was a stranger. For any normal person, facing an invincible enemy, wouldn't it be easy to get the other person to run away with them?
It goes without saying that he would have run away with them.
But she was outmaneuvered.
"I said there's no need to run away." Fang Xiu's calm voice rang out again, and then he actually took a step forward, carrying Fang Yao in his arms, and walked towards Ling Xinghe.
This action nearly scared Ling Ling and the others to death.
"What are you doing?! You're going to your death!"
"Madman! You think you can defeat an enemy that even our Holy Maiden couldn't beat?"
"Quickly put down the saintess's sister! If you want to commit suicide, no one will stop you!" The group from the Holy Church were anxious and shouted all at once.
Ling Ling and Bai Xiangqing exchanged a glance, already planning to knock Fang Xiu unconscious and forcibly take the group away.
However, someone was one step ahead of him, namely Xu Ruohai.
Xu Ruohai was, after all, a demigod. Even though he had lost all his power, his eyesight remained. He immediately saw through Ling Ling and Bai Xiangqing's plan and flashed in front of them to block their way.
He smiled slightly: "Please, both of you, do not obstruct His Excellency the True God's decision."
"What 'True God'? He's going to his death!"
“You should be Yao Yao’s benefactors, but now I have no choice but to offend you,” Ling Ling said in a deep voice.
Xu Ruohai shook his head: "Don't be impatient. I don't blame you for not understanding God, but please don't question God's decision. What you think is impossible is nothing more than commonplace in God's eyes."
The situation was urgent, and Ling Ling couldn't listen to Xu Ruohai's "nonsense." She quickly bypassed him and went to stop Fang Xiu.
However, it was too late.
"Hahaha... None of you will escape!" Ling Xinghe's severely injured body had recovered most of its strength. He got up from the ground and manipulated the billions of spider lilies that filled the sky and earth, which surged towards Fang Xiu and Fang Yao like a black torrent.
"No!!" Ling Ling's eyes were bloodshot as she tried to rush forward, but Bai Xiangqing held her back tightly.
"Now is not the time to act rashly. If we don't leave now, everyone will die! We now know Ling Xinghe's trump card. If we go back and plan carefully, we will definitely find a way to get revenge!" Bai Xiangqing advised.
Ling Ling's beautiful eyes were red and tears streamed down her face: "But... Yao Yao, she..."
