"presumptuous!"
Yingyue's face turned cold, and her icy eyes swept over the group: "Although our master has ascended to godhood, our mistress is still here. Do you even see her anymore?"
The old men were taken aback, their gazes falling on Ji Jiuying, and they frowned.
"Madam?"
"Lord Shadowmoon, are you joking? How is this any different from handing over the Nine Heavens Divine Palace to the Four Directions City? We strongly oppose it!"
They've been in this Nine Heavens Divine Palace for nearly a thousand years. Now, they're being asked to call this teenage girl, who's from the Four Directions City, their master. How could they possibly be willing to do that?
puff--
"Why don't you take a better look at your current situation?"
"Since you object... then I will become the master of this Nine Heavens Divine Palace."
Ji Jiuying couldn't help but laugh, her eyes filled with mockery as she looked at the group.
Upon hearing this, the faces of the others turned a deep shade of liver: "You!"
Ji Jiuying sized up these people. Although they were a bit old, their strength was still quite good.
"As for you... since you disagree, then be obedient puppets."
As she spoke, Ji Jiuying's pupils turned crimson. Several old men looked at her eyes in confusion, and suddenly their gazes became empty.
"Owner."
Several elderly men knelt down expressionlessly and said respectfully.
Ji Jiuying's eyes returned to their normal color, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
"Get up, all of you. From now on, you will guard the Nine Heavens Divine Palace. When I am not here, you shall obey Yingyue and Yin Han's orders. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Master."
——
After leaving the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, Ji Jiuying headed straight for the Wilderness City. Outside the Wilderness City, Ling Xiao transformed into a bracelet and wrapped around her wrist.
The collapse of the pyramids dispersed the onlookers, and in the desert, a figure stood quietly in front of the pyramids.
Li Mobai sighed softly. Was she really dead? Was his sister destined to live like this forever?
These past few days, he's been having the same dream. She wasn't lying to him; she really did bring his sister's soul back.
Just then, a gust of wind swept across the desert, carrying yellow sand that blurred his vision.
A series of footsteps approached, and Li Mobai opened his eyes with difficulty. A figure in red came into view through his blurry vision, and his heart skipped a beat.
"you······"
"You've come out of the pyramid."
Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow: "You're not going to wait for me here the whole time, are you?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Li Mobai's face. Thinking of his dream, he dared not speak of it, afraid that she would not believe him.
"Miss Ji, my sister..."
"We'll talk about it when we get back."
Seeing the expression on her face, Li Mobai was overjoyed and followed Ji Jiuying closely.
Upon arriving at Li Mobai's home, Ji Jiuying remained as disdainful as ever.
"Li Mobai, can't you find somewhere else to live?"
A glint flashed in Li Mobai's eyes, and he smiled bitterly: "The Desolate City is a place of constant killing. You know my sister's situation. Our cultivation is not high. Being able to stay here is already a great favor. How dare we ask for anything more?"
Ji Jiuying's eyes flickered slightly. It was indeed a miracle that their cultivation levels had remained unscathed in this desolate city. It seemed that there were some hidden stories she was unaware of.
Ji Jiuying didn't say anything more, but came to Li Moning's side. In a flash, Li Moning's soul appeared beside her.
"Go back!"
Seeing Ji Jiuying talking to thin air, Li Mobai was startled. He looked in front of her and his gaze met Li Moning's, but unfortunately he couldn't see her.
"Thank you."
After saying that, she lay down and returned to her body. Ji Jiuying gathered a wisp of soul power and struck Li Moning.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and sat up.
Li Mobai quickly stepped forward to help her up: "Little sister?"
"elder brother!"
Li Mobai's eyes lit up with joy as he looked incredulously at the person who called him "brother."
"Little sister, you're finally better. Do you know how worried your brother was about you?"
As he spoke, Li Mobai's voice began to choke up.
Li Moning's eyes were red: "I'm sorry, brother, I made you worry."
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back..."
"Sister, take out the white tiger egg from your spiritual sea."
Upon hearing Li Mobai's words, Li Moning took out the white tiger egg from her sea of consciousness without any hesitation.
"Brother, is this for Miss Ji?"
Li Mobai nodded: "If it weren't for Miss Ji, I would have died at the hands of those barbarians long ago. Moreover, she helped you find your soul, so this white tiger egg should rightfully belong to her."
Upon hearing this, Li Moning knelt down with a thud: "Miss Ji, thank you for saving my brother."
Ji Jiuying was startled by her actions and quickly stepped forward to help her up: "Miss Li, there's no need for this. Besides, I saved him because of the white tiger egg."
"No matter what, you are our savior."
Li Moning smiled.
Thinking about Li Moning's physique, Ji Jiuying checked the Heavenly Punishment Manual and found that the Xuan Yin Physique was not limited to living in this high-temperature desert.
On the contrary, if she cultivates a spiritual technique that is extremely cold, she can achieve a positive result from two negatives. In the future, she will not only not be afraid of the cold, but the colder it is, the more advantageous it will be for her.
Since they gave her a good impression, she decided to do her a favor and help them out. Ji Jiuying took out a book of the Extreme Cold Spiritual Technique from her spatial storage and handed it to Li Moning.
"With your cultivation level, living in this desolate city is not a long-term solution. This cultivation technique can be used to fight poison with poison. Once you can condense water into ice, you will be able to leave this place."
Upon hearing her words, the two men stared wide-eyed, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Tell me, if I cultivate this technique, I won't have to suppress my Profound Yin Body here anymore?"
Ji Jiuying nodded. Li Moning almost lost her balance. She could finally leave this place; she no longer had to live in constant fear...
"Thank you, Miss Ji. My brother and I will never forget your kindness today. If you ever need us in the future, I, Li, will do anything for you, even if it means facing mountains of knives and seas of fire!"
Li Mobai stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said excitedly.
"Focus on your cultivation and strive to leave this place as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he turned into a streak of light and disappeared from their sight.
Ji Jiuying returned to the space.
A group of people watched the basketball-sized white tiger egg.
"Why is this white tiger also an egg?" Ji Jiuying asked curiously.
Evil Fire flew forward and stopped on the white tiger egg: "You don't know this, do you? This divine beast white tiger is different from an ordinary tiger. A white tiger may take tens of thousands of years to produce such a divine beast egg. This thing is extremely rare."
"So, this one's going to hatch now...?"
Upon hearing this, Little Phoenix quickly took a few steps away, saying disdainfully, "Ugh, I don't want to!"
"······"
"We don't know if they're dead or alive inside," Ji Jiuying said, taking out the Netherworld Mirror.
At this moment, Hei Xiangling suddenly leaned closer and sniffed the white tiger egg, looking serious as she pondered.
