Hearing that nothing inside had escaped and that there wouldn't be widespread destruction, Wan Jiao breathed a slight sigh of relief. She softly hummed in agreement, then said, "I'll go there once the Feng family's matter is resolved."
Li Wen and the others were here for two reasons: first, to help Wan Jiao deal with the Feng family's affairs, and second, to discuss the Xuan Domain seal.
Tonight, Jiao directly gave Li Wen the answer he wanted. Li Wen bowed again and said respectfully, "On behalf of all beings in the Three Realms, Li Wen thanks the King of the Underworld for his great kindness..."
Wan Jiao knew exactly what Li Wen was going to say.
Before he could finish speaking, Wan Jiao interrupted him seriously, "For us cultivators, protecting all living beings is our duty, and we do not need your thanks."
After pausing for a moment, Wan Jiao asked again, "Has the Feng family been monitored by people from the Underworld?"
Li Wen nodded. "Someone's been watching us. What's wrong?"
"In your opinion, what are our chances of winning this time?" Wan Jiao's tone was quite meaningful.
Li Wen paused for a few seconds, then thought seriously for a moment before answering in a low voice, "The evil forces that have long disappeared from the world have reappeared, led by Nüba Baiying. The person behind them who covets the Seven Absolute Spirit Body must have made ample preparations, I'm afraid..."
Li Wen hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
How clever Wan Jiao was!
She nodded slightly, then formed a mudra with her hands.
"I'm going to the Xuan Domain first to reinforce the seal. You try to stall them until I get back."
As soon as Wan Jiao finished speaking, she instantly teleported and disappeared from Li Wen's sight.
He understood what she meant.
The only concern was that the situation here was too complicated, and there wouldn't be a chance to reinforce the seal of the Xuan Domain.
I have to say, Wan Jiao's vision is truly remarkable!
Even if it means giving up the last bit of strength, I hope to leave a glimmer of hope for the common people.
In this respect, she is remarkably similar to the former Hades Runling!
While pondering, Li Wen moved and appeared in Feng Yan's room.
The black energy that was about to devour everything retreated automatically because of Li Wen's appearance, barely making way for him.
Clearly, the black aura feared Li Wen's 'aura' as the King of Hell in the underworld.
That makes things much easier.
He was very confident he could hold out until Wan Jiao returned!
…
…
Wan Jiao's appearance in the Xuan Domain immediately attracted the attention of the Black and White Impermanence and the six Yama Kings who were still guarding the area.
Seeing her and the Netherworld Bone Fan in her hand, what else could the six Yama Kings, who had been kept in the dark, not understand?
Everyone bowed respectfully, saying, "Welcome our lord."
Wan Jiao: "..."
These old devils are really shrewd.
She put the Netherworld Bone Fan into her canvas bag, cleared her throat, and said, "I will reinforce the seal. You may all step back."
No one said anything, and they all left.
In the end, only the Black and White Impermanence remained.
They huddled close to Wan Jiao's side. "My lord, why didn't Lord Li Wen come with you?"
"He's at the Feng family, dealing with the Seven Absolute Spirits." Wan Jiao said, as if she had thought of something, and then instructed Black and White Impermanence, "You two hurry to the Feng family. There will definitely be a fierce battle today, and we must ensure that innocent people are not implicated."
Black and White Impermanence said in unison, "Yes, sir..."
…
Wan Jiao gave a cursory inspection of the Xuan Domain barrier before beginning to set up the formation in an orderly manner.
Such a special existence as the Xuan Domain would be extremely difficult to reinforce, even for a god.
For Wan Jiao, a mere human sorcerer, this was theoretically impossible. However, because she was the reincarnation of the Underworld King Runling, was proficient in various ancient formations, and possessed a continuous source of spiritual power... it wasn't difficult for her; it just required a little time.
Upon seeing Wan Jiao's formation, the creatures within the Xuan Domain all attacked her.
However, they couldn't even get close to Wan Jiao, let alone harm her. Those who hadn't taken Wan Jiao seriously before suddenly became furious.
"Even if she is strong, she alone cannot withstand all the attacks from within the Xuan Domain."
"Yes, everyone, listen to my command, attack!"
"For freedom, to get out of this hellhole, let's charge!"
"Charge! Charge! Charge!"
"..."
Half an hour passes in the blink of an eye!
The attacks that came one after another towards Wan Jiao were all easily dealt with by her. The remaining ones all dared not move.
This woman, though a human being, is actually more terrifying than these demons and evil spirits.
They... were really scared.
"Staying in the Xuan Domain means we can still survive. But once we break through, there will be no more chances."
"I have met the love of my life, and we will soon have a child. Although the Xuan Domain is dull and not as vibrant as the outside world, at least we are alive."
"That's what I think too, so I won't join in the fun."
"Let's go, let's head back home..."
"..."
One by one, some left, some died, and some scattered.
Soon, no one was blocking or attacking Wan Jiao anymore, and she was finally able to focus on repairing the barrier.
When the Xuan Domain barrier was finally repaired, Wan Jiao let out a long sigh of relief and murmured softly, "I hope it's not too late!"
…
…
Two flowers bloom, each telling its own story!
On the Feng family's side, Bai Ying and her men had already taken over the entire Feng family compound. Those who came to reinforce them, whether from the underworld or as sorcerers, were either dead or wounded.
The scene was more than just tragic.
Li Wen was still struggling to hold on, but ultimately he was no match and was defeated.
Bai Ying looked down at Li Wen with an extremely arrogant air, and questioned him with a wild laugh, "Lord Li Wen, why did your Underworld get involved in this mess? My master has never intended to be an enemy of the Underworld."
