The talismans and protective shields alone numbered more than ten layers.
However, the power of the heavenly lightning was too great, and they only managed to withstand it for a moment, reducing its power by less than one-tenth.
The bolt of lightning still struck Xinghe.
The golden boy and jade girl tried to help Xinghe, but Xinghe pushed them away.
Xinghe was also aroused a little anger, "There are more, right? Then bring them on."
She stared at the lightning overhead.
The heavenly lightning showed no mercy, striking down seven or eight bolts in succession.
Several Yama kings frowned, at a loss for what to do.
Now, no matter how strong Xinghe is, he will either die or be crippled.
If I had known better, I shouldn't have gotten involved in building the underworld's network with her in the first place. It's been running for so many years, there's no difference if it continues to run.
The underworld was illuminated for a few seconds. After the light faded, all the ghosts looked toward where Xinghe was standing.
"Is she alright?"
"How could that be?"
"The closest ones are the Kings of Hell," he blurted out.
Xinghe remained standing in the same spot, his cat-like eyes shining brightly against his dark face. "You dog, Tiandao, you're out of options now, aren't you?"
After the nine bolts of lightning struck, the dark clouds reluctantly dispersed.
Tiandao lowered his gaze towards the Milky Way for a moment, then looked away.
The Milky Way has disrupted the rules, and the rules cannot be violated. Heavenly lightning is the punishment. Nine bolts of heavenly lightning fell, and the matter was settled.
The Milky Way bounced around for a while, but the Heavenly Dao did not react.
She retracted the area she had expanded.
At the last moment, she remembered her own domain. Her domain was special; it could not only contain the souls of female ghosts, but it could contain anything.
It was a very strange characteristic; she had never seen it in anything else.
She gave it a try, and to her surprise, it actually worked.
Several bolts of lightning flashing with purplish-black light appeared in the sky above the area.
Xinghe sensed it and realized she could control those bolts of heavenly lightning.
It's been sent.
Heavenly lightning is a thing of the Heavenly Dao.
She stroked her chin, wondering what would happen if the Heavenly Dao were to reappear and she threw the heavenly lightning back at it.
Just thinking about it makes Xinghe excited.
"Sister!" The Golden Boy and Jade Girl quickly approached the Milky Way.
The little crybaby, Jin Tong, started shedding tears halfway there.
The King of Hell's messengers, along with other ghosts who were there to watch the spectacle, arrived one after another.
Xinghe: "I'm fine. What can a few bolts of heavenly lightning do to me?"
Pretending is necessary.
She can even use the heavenly lightning of the Heavenly Dao for her own purposes, so what's wrong with showing off a little?
The Kings of Hell had complex expressions in their eyes, a mixture of shock and fear.
Even the highest leader of the underworld, the Fengdu Emperor, would have to pay a heavy price when faced with heavenly lightning of this level.
The Emperor of Fengdu is the ruler of a realm.
In contrast, Xinghe escaped unscathed, except for the charred ends of his hair.
King Yama took out a bamboo tube from his robes. "Is Fairy Xinghe alright? I have some spiritual spring water here that can repair the damage from the heavenly lightning."
The remaining few Yama Kings were filled with shock.
Yama, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, is clearly not a good person; he's using this underhanded tactic to overtake them.
The origins of Xinghe must be far more powerful than they imagined, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to deal with the tribulation so easily.
They also want to latch onto Xinghe's coattails.
"Oh, thank you so much, I can't accept that."
Xinghe, adhering to the principle of "why not take something that's free?", accepted it.
The ghosts around them looked at the Milky Way with a newfound sense of fear, awe, and reverence.
Xinghe didn't notice that the colorful halo behind her had brightened a little more, and its range had expanded from the width of a thumb to the distance of two fingers.
The ghosts who witnessed the whole thing were about to become the most steadfast believers in the Milky Way, and they wanted nothing more than to praise the Milky Way from head to toe.
Xinghe felt dizzy and disoriented after hearing this.
That's why people love to hear nice things. These ghosts speak so sweetly, their praise is spot-on, and they never repeat themselves.
Xinghe happily returned to the mortal realm.
The moment Ye Ning saw Xinghe, she let out a scream.
"My goodness, little sister, where have you been?"
"Your hair."
"And the dust on your face, have you developed a hobby of coal mining?"
Ye Ning reached out and wiped the dust off Xinghe's face. After confirming that she was not injured, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Her eyes crinkled into a smile. "You walked around outside looking like this for two or three hours?"
Galaxy: ...
Her heart skipped a beat. Her hair was singed, but she should be alright, right?
With this appearance, she sang in front of tens of thousands of ghosts how she resisted the heavenly lightning.
She still remembers how confident and authoritative she was back then.
She looked up and saw her reflection in the mirror.
His charred hair curled up behind his head, his face was black and gray, two buttons were missing from his clothes, and his sleeves were charred.
They look more like beggars than beggars themselves.
Is this the image she projected, standing before countless ghosts and boasting?
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
Xinghe threw herself at Ye Ning, "Mom, I'm too ashamed to face the ghost."
Ye Ning laughed as she comforted Xinghe, "Hahaha...actually...actually quite cute...haha, really."
Xinghe now feels so bad that he wants to dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes whenever he thinks about what he just saw.
She doesn't want to go to the underworld anymore, she really means it.
Ye Ning gently wiped away the tears that had welled up in her eyes from laughing, and pulled the lifeless Xinghe to the washroom.
She used a towel to gently wipe the dust off Xinghe's face.
Xinghe's fair and delicate face was revealed.
"I'm not kidding you, she's really cute." Ye Ning wiped all the dust off Xinghe's body.
I'm a bit at a loss when it comes to dealing with that curly, burnt hair.
The washroom was large and fully equipped. Ye Ning pushed Xinghe to sit down on a chair.
"Let me show you your mother's skills. I knew a lot of things when I was young."
Ye Ning twirled the scissors in her hand. "Wait, the moment of witnessing a miracle is about to begin. I guarantee my sister will be even more beautiful than before."
Xinghe stared longingly at Ye Ning.
Like a beautiful ragdoll cat, Ye Ningxin melted into cream, dripping down her cheeks.
She lowered her head and kissed Xinghe, "Be a good girl and wait."
Xinghe nodded. "Mm."
Ye Ning wasn't joking; she might have actually practiced it when she was younger, and the scissors danced in her hands with incredible speed.
In just a few strokes, he cut off all the burnt hair and then cut it short to match Xinghe's face shape and hair.
The comic book-style cut, with short hair neatly falling down her back, further accentuates Xinghe's delicate facial features.
Sweet and cool, paired with Xinghe's big, round cat eyes, her cuteness level is off the charts.
Ye Ning put down his tools and hugged Xinghe, kissing her several times.
"I can't believe I gave birth to such an adorable daughter! Honestly, Nuwa should have let me sculpt her face."
"Little sister, you are the cutest baby ever."
"Let Mommy kiss you, you're so beautiful!"
