A sharp pain shot from her chest, and she instinctively clutched it, her gaze meeting the demonic queen's mad eyes… a terrifying demon crawling up from hell itself!
"Jin Bao'er, today is your death anniversary!"
Qing Yan and the burly man stood rooted, stunned, frozen for a moment!
At this moment, intense pain spread throughout her body. She quickly swallowed a Spirit Gathering Pill, covering her wound to prevent too much vital blood from being lost…
"Is that so? Heh! Then come and try!"
Her white robes were stained red with blood, blooming like scattered, beautiful flowers. Her pale face showed a touch of weakness, yet her lips curved upwards, mocking and defiant!
The demonic queen faltered, thinking she was bluffing! Provoked, she immediately flew into a rage…
Her sharp claws extended abruptly, and her body lunged straight at Jin Bao'er! The two beside her couldn't even hold her back!
"Die!"
With a roar filled with killing intent! The claws hurtled towards her!
"Enough!"
A giant tiger claw appeared out of nowhere, swatting her away. She crashed heavily against the wall and then fell to the ground! Her tattered clothes could barely cover her body, and bright red blood spurted out. The pain was so intense she couldn't even muster the strength to cry out!
The appearance of the White Tiger made the already small underground palace seem cramped! Its majestic, wild body inspired dread! Its enormous beastly eyes stared at the demonic queen on the ground, filled with disdain!
"What Nascent Soul stage? You clearly used some method to forcefully raise your cultivation! So weak!"
As it spoke, the beastly claw struck the demonic queen, pinning her to the ground and dragging her!
Qing Yan stood rigidly, afraid to move. Another Nascent Soul stage?
The burly man wanted to save her, but due to the undeniable pressure of the Nascent Soul stage, he could only stand still…
Jin Bao'er felt her embrace grow heavy. A pair of small hands gently covered her chest, and a warm, life-giving energy slowly flowed in, gradually alleviating the pain of her wound…
She lowered her gaze, meeting the worried eyes of the little girl!
"Don't be afraid, I won't die!"
The little girl heard this and became angry! She glared at Jin Bao'er fiercely, her voice childish and petulant.
"I saw it all! That old man was mean to you, and Sister didn't retort, she even helped him save his disciple! You big dummy! Sister is a big dummy!"
Scolded and chided in such a cute, childish tone, Jin Bao'er nodded slightly and sighed. She gently stroked the little girl's head with a rather gentle tone!
"Mhm… I am a big dummy!"
Hearing this, the little girl's eyes widened, her mouth pouted, and her cheeks puffed out as she looked at Jin Bao'er…
As if to say, "Don't think you can fool me!"
After her wounds had mostly healed, the demonic queen was also played with by Tian Shu until she was barely alive…
Jin Bao'er stood up and walked over, looking at the weakened woman on the ground. A killing intent flashed in her eyes, which were cold.
"I've always disliked leaving future trouble for myself! So… go down and accompany your son!"
As she finished speaking, she raised her right hand. Silvery-white light flickered in her palm. Sharp sword energy slashed across her collar, severing her head cleanly! Her movements were swift and decisive!
"Pfft!"
Blood sprayed out instantly. The fallen head bore a pair of eyes that had died with unfulfilled grievances!
Even after witnessing everything, Qing Yan and the other two no longer had any intention of begging for mercy! Who would show compassion to someone who wanted to kill them? That would be a proper saint, wouldn't it!
"Boom!"
Immediately after, the entire underground palace began to shake violently. The stone pillars at the top collapsed, as if unable to bear the strain. Large chunks of debris rained down from above!
Seeing this, Jin Bao'er frowned. She quickly recalled Bao Bao and Tian Shu, grabbed one in each hand, and turned to leave~
Before she had taken two steps, a powerful suction force surged from behind her, accompanied by a chilling aura, forcing her to retreat. Her body became extremely heavy, almost unable to move!
Fortunately, her reaction was swift. She stomped her right foot down firmly, just managing to anchor her rapidly retreating body!
She turned her head, a feat made incredibly difficult by this simple movement…
Above the blood pool she had destroyed, a strange grey vortex suddenly appeared! The chilling aura originated from it! A strange pressure emanated from the vortex, pinning her down, making her body almost immobile!
The falling stones in the entire underground palace were sucked into it. The demonic queen's corpse was the first to be devoured! Qing Yan and the other man reacted quickly, sticking to the wall and shielding themselves with demonic energy!
For some reason, the strong suction force seemed not to target demonic energy, but rather her spiritual energy, as if it had locked onto her and was sucking her in with all its might.
Immediately, Jin Bao'er shouted to the two of them! She threw Qian Futu and the other person to Qing Yan and the other man, then swiftly deployed a defensive array! However, even these simple two actions drained half her strength!
"I'm leaving them to you! If anything happens to them, I, Jin Bao'er, will slaughter all the beings in the demon realm!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the defensive array seemed to lose its support and instantly dissipated! Her face was pale as she tried to re-establish it, but it was still the same!
Jin Bao'er was alarmed! Her body continued to retreat, her feet digging into the ground, leaving deep marks, clearly unable to hold on for much longer.
She wanted to enter the immortal mansion to completely cut off this suction force, but the spiritual energy she had just circulated was instantly devoured by the vortex. Although it only took less than a second, she found it extremely difficult to accomplish!
As time passed, the suction force gradually increased. She furrowed her brows, striving to open her right hand and let out a cry!
"Soul Sever!"
The silver-white long sword suddenly appeared. Jin Bao'er quickly flipped her body, putting all her strength into driving Soul Sever deeply into the ground! Her black hair whipped wildly as she soared into the air, her hands gripping the sword hilt! Straining to hold on.
Her mind raced…
Since she couldn't use spiritual energy, she had to rely on her own strength! Her gaze swept rapidly around, but she saw no cover!
Damn it! What kind of cursed place is this! And what is that vortex behind her!
However, she couldn't afford to think too much now. She couldn't maintain this posture for long, and her palms began to sweat. The vortex might disappear at any moment, and she had to save herself before her strength ran out!
So, she could only painstakingly extend her foot, inch by inch. Every movement increased the pull from behind…
At this moment, the battle above the underground palace was nearing its end! The Bone Dragon was utterly crushed by the Black Dragon. Its massive skeletal frame was covered in scratches. As the Black Dragon roared from the sky, a terrifying force slammed down, shattering the dragon bones! The huge bones broke into pieces… and it was no longer able to fight back.
The Black Dragon quickly disappeared. A few seconds later, a man in black, radiating an imposing aura, descended from the sky. His arrogant purple eyes looked coldly and complexly at the scattered pile of dragon bones…
