"The Netherworld Magnet is in the pool where the body of the Destroyer has dissolved. Who can retrieve it?" Xia Xiang asked, looking at the group.
Jiu Lai stroked his beard, frowning in thought. "Two candidates: the first is Xia Tian, and the second is Lanling Wang."
All eyes fell on Xia Tian's somewhat pale face, and they sighed inwardly.
"What's the reason for choosing Lanling Wang?" Xia Xiang asked, somewhat puzzled.
"He has the Seven Star Curse on him," Jiu Lai replied, frowning.
"What curse?!" Xia Xiang exclaimed in surprise.
"The Seven Star Curse," Jiu Lai repeated, "is the Seven! Star! Curse that the ancestors of the Yehenara family placed on the descendants of the Gulaier family!"
"At that time, there was a demon spirit among the ghost puppet army under the old leader of the Yehenara family who was specializing in casting spells. It was preparing to ambush your elder brother. Lanling Wang didn't have time to retaliate and blocked it with his body, but he was unharmed. The spell rebounded, and the demon spirit was instantly turned into dust."
"Your elder brother was afraid something might happen to Lanling Wang, so he took him to places like the Ancient Tomb Hospital, the 95 Academy of Sciences, and the Supernatural Abilities Testing Institute for a full-body examination, and then they discovered that he had the Seven Star Curse on him."
Oh no, oh no! Her brother is still by Lanling Wang's side. What if Lanling Wang, out of resentment towards the Yehenara family, points his sword at her brother?!
Xia Xiang teleported away, completely forgetting that his older brother now possessed superpowers. Given Gui Feng's ruthlessness, not killing Lanling Wang would be giving Xia Yu face.
—The Yehenara Family—
Gui Feng and Lanling Wang were engrossed in their fight and neither noticed Xia Xiang's sudden appearance.
"Voris - Ulabah - Coagulation"
Xia Xiang used a freezing spell to freeze two people.
"Brothers, can we stop fighting? This isn't the time for a life-or-death struggle," Xia Xiang said breathlessly. "Problems that can be solved aren't problems."
"You brat, which eye of yours saw us fighting to the death? It's just a friendly spar!" Gui Feng said vaguely. "But you, you better let me go right now, or I won't let you off the hook."
"Break free first, then we can talk about whether you'll let me go." Xia Xiang ignored him and let him struggle.
"Prince Lanling, I'm sorry, I only just learned about the Seven Star Curse," Xia Xiang said apologetically. "I will do my best to help you break the curse, can you trust me?"
“Miss Xia Xiang, you flatter me. You must be aware of the viciousness of the Seven Star Curse.” A trace of sorrow flashed in Lanling Wang’s eyes. “I don’t want to lift the curse because I can’t bear to lose any of my important things.”
"Now only my brother and I remain in the bloodline of the Gulaier family. We have already discussed it and will not leave any more Gulaier blood."
"Please rest assured, Miss Xia Xiang. The sect leader is the sect leader, and Yehenara Xiong Ba is Yehenara Xiong Ba. Lanling Wang can tell the difference. He is also grateful for the kindness shown to the young master and Miss Xia Xiang in the past and will not do anything to harm the sect leader."
Hearing Lanling Wang's words, Xia Xiang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
She had really worried too much before. How could such a loyal and righteous warrior be born into the Yehenara family? There was a sense of helplessness in not being able to slap fate in the face.
"Thank you, but please believe me, there might be other ways to break the curse," Xia Xiang said in a comforting tone.
"Hey, you brat, untie your brother!" Gui Feng struggled but couldn't break free, feeling both ashamed and angry.
"You stinky old man, break free yourself!" Xia Xiang glared at him, somewhat annoyed, when he called himself "brother."
"Oh, right, Lanling King," Xia Xiang suddenly remembered the Netherworld Magnet, "Could you please go inside and retrieve the Netherworld Magnet?"
"Your subordinate obeys," Lanling King said calmly.
"Stop being a subordinate, stop being a subordinate." Xia Xiang sighed helplessly. Her ancestors had committed too many sins, and being a descendant was really troublesome.
"From now on, I'm your eldest brother. You're my second brother, and I'll take care of you," Xia Xiang said with great pride.
"Call me 'Big Brother' and let me hear it."
Lanling King: ......
Gui Feng/Xia Yu:......
"I was just kidding, wasn't it funny?" Xia Xiang gave an awkward laugh.
The two: We're frozen in place by a freezing spell, how are you going to laugh?
