"Still arguing? Shut up, all of you. We'll be separated again when we go out. Who will keep A-Tong company from now on? Shouldn't we come up with a plan for each person to spend a day together?"
"Chen Yao is not allowed to get involved! He has to take responsibility for the trouble he caused!"
"We absolutely forbid Yin You. He's incredibly cunning; who knows what he might do to us if he gets the chance—"
Tong Su had no idea what kind of fierce argument was taking place in the mind of the young man who had closed his eyes as if resting. She looked at him with some unease, and seeing that he seemed to be alright, she was temporarily relieved and said, "I'm sorry to have worried Your Majesty."
"What's there to worry about? It's my troublesome son who's given you that's frightening. His temper... sigh, please bear with him."
Xihe shook her head: "When you joined forces to fight Jumang, you should have already known his secret, right?"
Tong Su raised her eyes and asked carefully, "Are you referring to the matter of the Ninth Prince and the others merging?"
"Yes, so I won't hide it from you anymore. Those ten are actually separate souls and spirits. Only when they are combined do they become the real him. However, unless there is an extreme crisis, they must never be allowed to combine!"
Xihe glossed over the complex reasons behind it, clearly not wanting Tongsu to come into contact with it so early.
"You've probably only really met Chen Yao, right? The others are a bit different from him. For example, Yin You is cunning, Qi Sha is even more ferocious, Po Jun and Tian Lang are warlike... Oh, and there's Lu Ya! He's the luckiest. If you had gone out with him this time, you would have turned danger into safety."
Tong Su nodded and listened with a smile as Xi He gave her detailed instructions. The two talked quietly for a while, and Di Jun and Tai Yi also discussed it and then said, "I called you here today to talk about the fact that Ju Mang is dead."
The hall fell silent instantly as everyone looked up to hear Di Jun's instructions.
"The Ancestral Witches must have learned that Jumang died at the hands of our demon race. They are the most vengeful and will never let it go easily. From now on, everyone should be more careful when traveling."
Taiyi said, "That's right. Although I altered the evidence at the scene, they won't know that Tonggong and Axi were responsible, but we should still be vigilant and make sure we don't get caught alone. Those lunatics are capable of anything!"
Tong Su said, "Your Majesty, killing Jumang this time is the responsibility of me and the Crown Prince. If this leads to a deterioration in the relationship between the sorcerers and demons—"
"You don't need to worry about that. This battle between liches was inevitable sooner or later, and you did a good job."
Di Jun's face showed approval:
"When the twelve Ancestral Witches gather, they can summon the power of Father God Pangu, which is close to the physical power of a Heavenly Dao Saint! Now that Jumang has died, they are unable to gather together. This will greatly help the demon race in the future great battle."
He reached out and summoned a ball of blazing white essence in the air, shimmering with a metallic luster. The luster was so subtle that one could see the immense power contained within it!
The spirit gradually revealed its true form, which turned out to be nine magnificent white arrows. As soon as the arrows were released, the air in the entire hall seemed to be suppressed, becoming heavy and oppressive. Only the sharp tips of the arrows could pierce through all defenses of time.
"You are the Crimson Bow, and in battle you condense your own light arrows, which inevitably makes it difficult to multitask. When I took human form on the Sun Star, I took nine pieces of the Sun Star's refined gold to help me shed my feathers and forge nine plain jade arrows, which I now bestow upon you."
"……arrow?"
Tong Su's entire mind was drawn to the nine arrows. She stared at them blankly, as if something in her blood was calling out to her, urging her to hurry up and retrieve them.
