The surrounding world had changed without her noticing; the air seemed incredibly thick, and all light sources had vanished. Ruji stood frozen in place, afraid to move, as if a thousand mountains were pressing down on her.
Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Lu Xuening was already kneeling on the ground, blood gushing from her mouth. A sense of oppression, an indescribable sense of oppression, pressed heavily on her body. She felt as if she would be crushed into mincemeat and turn into a pool of blood in the next second.
In the boundless darkness ahead, something slowly approached; it seemed to be a colossal creature.
Ruji raised her head, and in her beautiful eyes was reflected an enormous figure. The figure was shrouded in black mist, with only four narrow eyes showing. The pupils of those eyes were extremely long and thin, and looking through them, it seemed as if the entire body was pierced by fine needles.
Ruji suddenly knelt down and said respectfully, "This junior greets the Night King."
The Night King, the ninth ruler of Hell.
"I've heard you're very good at calculations." A voice, ethereal and indistinct, said, its gender unclear.
In fact, no one really knows whether the Night King is male or female. Everyone only knows that the Night King is the king of the Night Demons and later became the lord of Hell. However, the Night King is very low-key and rarely gets involved in the conflicts between the Night Demons and other races. He also rarely takes action and almost never leaves Hell.
Hearing the Night King's words, Ruji had probably already guessed the purpose of his visit. She lowered her head, extremely humble.
"I dare not say I am an expert, but I have some experience. If there is anything I can do to serve Lord Night King, I will do my utmost without hesitation."
"I wish to know where the original spider lily is?" said the Night King.
Upon hearing this, Ruji thought to herself: As expected, he came for the Primordial Spider Lily.
Legend has it that the primordial spider lily originally belonged to the first Lord of Hell. Only by possessing the primordial spider lily could one truly control the entire Hell and even the Underworld, as the primordial spider lily represents the laws of the Underworld.
"Yes, ma'am!" Ruji replied.
Ruji slowly got up, while Lu Xuening had already vomited blood and fainted. It wasn't that the Night King was more powerful than Mie Xinluo or Lou Munan, but rather that the Night King didn't restrain his power at all. That little bit of Immortal Emperor-level power that leaked out was enough to severely injure a True Demon and render him unconscious.

Inside the cave, A Yao was still staring at Mie Xin Luo. She reached out to touch Mie Xin Luo's face, which was exactly the same as Xu Feng Zhi's. Suddenly, he stood up and turned into a red light, disappearing into the white jade coffin.
Ayao: "..."
Although he hasn't said a single word to her yet, Ayao feels that his whole being is saying: "Don't touch me, you're so annoying."
Ayao gritted her teeth in anger as she looked at the man inside the white jade coffin.
What's going on here?
Xu Fengzhi's clone actually finds her annoying?
hateful!
Since the other party was so unwilling to pay attention to her, she had no choice but to accept the white jade coffin and sit there meditating. She calmed herself down to consider what she should do. Should she still go to the Crimson Fire Mountains to find her master as originally planned?
After spending two days in the cave, Ayao put on the cloak that could conceal her presence and left.
The crimson moon remained in the sky as A Yao transformed into a purple rainbow, soaring across the night sky beneath it, hurtling towards the Crimson Fire Mountains. Feng Chu had been taken away by Xie Chen, undoubtedly back to the Sword God Palace. When they met again, Feng Chu would surely be even stronger. With a Celestial Emperor as his backer, no one would dare to covet his physical body. Even if the Foolish Bone Elder returned, he wouldn't dare provoke Xie Chen.
Feng Chu has nothing to worry about now; the one to worry about is his master.
With the Mirror of Cause and Effect in Master's hands, even if Master has enemies he can't defeat, he can definitely escape.
As she thought about it, Ayao suddenly realized that she should be the one most worried about right now.
If that idiot Weng were alive, he wouldn't dare go after Feng Chu; he would definitely seek revenge on her. All the hatred is focused on her. Feng Qing's lover, Mo Xuan, had also seen her before. If the Phoenix Clan can't find their master, and they keep failing to find him, they'll come to capture her.
Right now, she's just a minor True Immortal. If the entire Phoenix Clan were to come after her, what would she have to do to resist? If Feng Qing really captured her and used her to threaten her master into showing himself, she would have no choice but to die.
Thinking of this, Ayao sighed.
Time Talisman...
If she had the Time-Traveling Talisman, she wouldn't be in such a sorry state.
Thinking of this, she felt resentment towards Luo Bai. It was all his fault for pursuing her, causing her to waste three Time Talismans. However, she also thought of Luo Bai's kindness to her and couldn't help but feel guilty. A Yao was lost in thought when suddenly she felt a chill run down her spine.
Her entire body seemed frozen, unable to move.
Her shadow, her shadow was bound.
Above the sky, a huge hole was torn open in the heavens.
A towering figure, hundreds of feet tall, emerged from the enormous opening. The moment it appeared, all the light in the world was sucked away, plunging everything into darkness, leaving only four narrow, blood-red eyes reflected in the sky. The hundred-foot-tall, pitch-black figure merged seamlessly with the boundless darkness.
The Night King!!
Ayao's heart skipped a beat.
In fact, she had never met the Ninth Lord of Hell—the Night King—in her previous life, but she had heard rumors about him, so now she guessed who the terrifying being appearing before her was: the supreme ruler of the Night Demon Clan, one of the four great demon gods of the Demon Realm, the Ninth Lord of Hell, the Night King.
Why is this guy targeting her?
Could it be...?
Ayao remembered the original spider lily.
"You took what belongs to me, hand it over."
A faint voice echoed from all directions. It was impossible to tell whether the voice was male or female. The instant the voice rang out, Ayao felt countless things approaching her. They were ghostly hands formed from dark shadows. Just as the ghostly hands were about to touch Ayao's body and tear her apart, a red mark appeared on Ayao's forehead.
A mark like the red spider lily.
Suddenly, the entire sky and earth were swallowed up by red light. Countless red spider lilies bloomed throughout the void. These red spider lilies, emitting red light, devoured a large part of the Night King's own realm. Hundreds of millions of petals fluttered and gathered together, turning into a human figure. That was Xu Fengzhi's divided soul, Extinction Heart Luo.
The expressionless man exuded an extremely powerful aura of suppression, causing the space to tremble violently. He stood in front of A Yao, pointed at the Night King, and countless dazzling runes rained down from the sky.
The red light transformed into chains of order, which filled the heavens and earth, instantly spreading throughout the void and enveloping the Night King's enormous body, attempting to lock him in place.
