Some arrived by flying, others walked in.
Still others rode in on a donkey, their feet not quite touching the ground.
Only this person could traverse the Ten Thousand Layered Hell with a donkey.
"Ninth Imperial Uncle, I am your nephew Nangong Li. Do you still remember me? It's been many years since I last saw you, I even miss you. Come out quickly, let's meet."
Nangong Li was clad in a magnificent brocade robe, adorned with an expensive jade pendant.
In his hand, he held a folding fan with hidden mechanisms.
"Little Linzi, do you still remember how you pursued our Qianying during your days at my Yi Jing Pavilion? Little Linzi, don't continue to slumber, come out quickly, let us meet."
Meng Qinghua, dressed in a blue robe, was tall and imposing.
The appellation "Little Linzi" he used was known by everyone to refer to whom he was speaking.
"A'mo, we haven't seen each other for a long time either. Over the years, I've tried to find your whereabouts, to meet you, and to have a good drink together. Unfortunately, you've always been hiding from me. This time, I won't let you hide from me any longer."
Du Chun, dressed in a white robe, had white hair that flowed freely behind him.
On his shoulder, he carried the world's only medicinal chest, belonging uniquely to him.
After years of refinement, he seemed more composed than before.
The medicinal chest he carried also contained items he frequently kept in reserve over the years.
"Nangong Mo, you once promised our Gu family that you would never bully my Qianying in this life, nor make her worry, nor do things she disliked. Yet now your original body has been occupied by another. How can I, as her brother-in-law, feel at ease entrusting my Qianying to you? Will my little nephew, who is still playing in Yi Jing Pavilion, be sad?"
Gu Yefeng, clad in a purple robe, possessed a handsome appearance and held a long sword, exuding an elegant demeanor.
"Brother Gu, I am also a brother-in-law. My Qianying doesn't have just one brother, and my mischievous little nephew doesn't have just your uncle; I am also an uncle!"
Duan Xifeng, dressed in a black robe, dismounted from a donkey.
As he spoke, he took a few steps forward. From a distance, there was nothing particularly striking about him.
But as he approached slightly, everyone could see that his chest was bulging.
Before long, a small head emerged from his chest.
Its large eyes scanned the surroundings.
Duan Xifeng raised an eyebrow, grabbed the back collar of the little person in his arms, pulled him out from his loose robe, and held him in his embrace.
He even tapped the little person on the head: "You stinky brat, am I right about what uncle said?"
Little Yi Hao was dressed in a small green robe.
Held by Duan Xifeng, he paid no attention to what Duan Xifeng was saying.
He looked around and, upon spotting Gu Qianying not far away, he struggled free from Duan Xifeng and jumped down.
Turning around, he immediately ran towards Gu Qianying.
"Mother... Mother, I finally see you. Son misses you so much. Mother, son is here."
After running only a few steps, he was grabbed by a figure rushing up from behind.
His back collar was held, and he was tightly embraced, preventing him from moving recklessly.
"Dangerous, don't go over."
Little Yi Hao turned his head and saw clearly that the person holding him was Ouyang Qinglin.
At this moment, Meng Qinghua, Du Chun, and Nangong Li all looked at Duan Xifeng.
Their eyes conveyed a sense of blame.
Duan Xifeng glanced at them, scratched his head, and shrugged: "Don't blame me, it was this stinky brat who insisted on following me. I couldn't help it."
Meng Qinghua, Nangong Mo, and Du Chun remained silent, but their gaze towards Duan Xifeng did not change.
Duan Xifeng gritted his teeth and had to admit: "Alright, alright, it's my fault. I shouldn't have secretly brought this stinky brat down the mountain, but... you all left, you all came to see Qianying, and I wanted to come too. I am Qianying's brother, of course, I miss my sister."
Everyone believed this.
Nangong Li, Meng Qinghua, and Du Chun then turned their heads.
Suddenly seeing Duan Xifeng, Meng Qinghua, Du Chun, Nangong Mo, and Gu Qianying, these people.
Gu Qianying's eyes were slightly moist.
Why had all her close friends come?
Why had her two brothers also come?
How had they found their way here?
Too many questions in her heart lacked answers.
However, at this moment, Gu Qianying was more concerned about their safety.
Gripping the Scarlet Blood Saber, she looked at the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable, ready to fight him at any moment.
"Nangong Mo, we are all here, do you still remember us? Wake up, these are your close friends, I am your wife, and your son, we are all here."
Having fought with the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable for a while, her body was already quite weak.
Now, she was even more exhausted.
The Scarlet Blood Saber in her hand almost slipped, and her body swayed precariously.
This state of hers was noticed by Duan Xifeng, Meng Qinghua, Nangong Mo, Du Chun, and Ouyang Qinglin.
"Sister!"
"Qianying!"
"Qianying!"
"Little Sister!"
"A'ying!"
"Ninth Imperial Aunt!"
The six voices resounded in unison within the great hall.
Gu Yefeng and Nangong Li were relatively far from Gu Qianying.
Ouyang Qinglin, holding Little Yi Hao in his arms, wanted to use his lightness skill to fly towards Gu Qianying, but it was already too late.
It was Du Chun and Duan Xifeng who rushed over with great speed.
The two arrived in front of Gu Qianying and simultaneously supported her, each holding one of her arms.
"Sister, are you alright?"
"Qianying, what's wrong?"
Duan Xifeng and Du Chun were extremely worried about Gu Qianying.
Gu Qianying looked up at the two, her eyes slightly closed, her body softened, and she collapsed into Du Chun's arms.
Du Chun and Duan Xifeng were both startled.
Nangong Li, Gu Yefeng, Meng Qinghua, Ouyang Qinglin, and the others were also surprised.
At this moment, as everyone suddenly appeared in the hall, the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable burst into laughter.
"Hmph, a bunch of human realm trash from where did you come? You dare to be presumptuous before this Venerable? Truly seeking death! Guards, kill all these death-seeking trash, leave none alive!"
With a command.
Many more specters appeared within the hall.
All of them were intangible, yet they emitted green eyes, and some were complete skeletons.
Living skeletons.
Nangong Li and Gu Yefeng, who had been staying in Yi Jing Pavilion and Dong Sheng Kingdom, had never seen such abnormal beings.
Even the spiritual pearls they swallowed when they followed them in were given to them by Ouyang Qinglin before they came.
Otherwise, none of them would have been able to enter the Ten Thousand Layered Hell.
"My goodness, what kind of creatures are these!"
Nangong Li wielded the folding fan with hidden mechanisms expertly.
However, his folding fan weapon seemed to have no destructive power against these abnormal beings.
After several exchanges, he was in distress and almost got injured.
Gu Yefeng was also the same. The long sword in his hand pierced through empty space, yet he could see these abnormal beings he had never encountered before.
And at this moment, Meng Qinghua, Du Chun, Duan Xifeng, and the others were also in the same situation.
They couldn't kill the abnormal beings before them.
However, Ouyang Qinglin was among these people who had cultivated demonic power and possessed profound spiritual energy.
Therefore, he could kill one specter with a single palm strike, and they could not revive.
Little Yi Hao was tightly protected in his arms.
As for the abnormal phenomena surrounding them, Little Yi Hao went from fear to finding them novel.
Gu Qianying, having fainted into Du Chun's arms, had not yet woken up.
Gu Qianying, Nangong Li, Du Chun, Duan Xifeng, and the others were no match for the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable.
Even if these people attacked him together, they could not defeat the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable.
A moment later.
Nangong Li, Duan Xifeng, Du Chun, Meng Qinghua, and Gu Yefeng were all injured by a flick of the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable's sleeve.
All five were sent flying and fell to the ground.
Ouyang Qinglin placed Little Yi Hao beside Gu Qianying, telling him to guard his mother.
Following that, Ouyang Qinglin turned and joined the decisive battle.
Ouyang Qinglin fought with the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable for a while.
But he was still no match for the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable.
After a few moves, he too was struck down by the Demon Luo Ghost Venerable's sleeve.
On the scene, the disciples of the Jue Sha Sect were either injured or dead.
Many of the specters also disappeared, but some of them, seeing their master had already taken action, vanished into thin air and hid.
The Demon Luo Ghost Venerable stood on the steps, looking at the injured people below.
A disdainful smile appeared on his lips: "You trash, coming to this Venerable's place is all for seeking death. This Venerable is too lazy to kill you, but... you have dirtied this Venerable's domain. Today, this Venerable will make all of you turn to ashes!"
