I nodded heavily. Seeing Yun Qing charge toward everyone while not a single member of the female legion was willing to strike, I felt the oppression in my heart surge to its peak. Xue Qingcheng understood my thoughts as well and said, "No one is to attack. Just restrain her. There may still be a turning point! Anyone we encounter must not be harmed, no matter what they have become!"
"Yes!" The female legion's voices were steadfast and unyielding. Even though everyone had fallen into such a desperate situation, none of them had completely lost their will to fight.
But the protection I had given them all these years had actually harmed them as well. That was why I now did not dare give them even the slightest command. Xue Qingcheng understood the situation before us far better than I did.
The appearance of a blood-demonized Yun Qing meant there had to be others nearby. Seeing Yun Qing flash into view around us, Xue Qingcheng hurriedly said to me, "Yitian, what are you waiting for? Go! Hurry and persuade Big Wife to come back. She's dead set on obtaining the Blood Demon Dao Foundation and won't give up easily... Since Yun Qing is here, there may be others too..."
My heart turned cold. I immediately charged, without looking back, into the area more deeply affected by the Dao Extremity. Before long, a figure that seemed to be Liu Xiaomiao swept past me, even deliberately drawing close. I caught sight of her from the corner of my eye, and my heart clenched again. "Xiaomiao! Even you..."
Liu Xiaomiao wore a verdant green dress, and the sword in her hand had long since vanished. She let out a strange cry, her five fingers curved into claws, and then lunged straight at me!
