Chapter 280

As soon as Madam Luo saw Xiao Minghuang, she rushed over and grabbed her arms tightly, crying out excitedly, "Immortal Master, Xiao Rui! Xiao Rui is missing!"

"Don't rush!"

Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly, realizing the seriousness of the problem. She immediately unleashed her Primordial Spirit power, but could not detect Luo Qianrui's presence.

"What is going on?"

Xiao Minghuang asked.

"Here's what happened..."

Madam Luo briefly recounted what had happened.

She had originally planned to wake up Xiao Luo and her sister that morning so they could pack their bags, wait for her return, and then go out to cultivate.

But when she arrived at the sisters' room, she only saw Luo Qianhua and not Luo Qianrui.

She asked Luo Qianhua, but the little girl hesitated and couldn't give a clear answer.

"I suspect some villain broke in at night and kidnapped Xiao Rui, which is why Xiao Hua was so frightened! Immortal Master! I beg you!"

Madam Luo suddenly knelt down, her eyes filled with tears, and cried out, "Please, please, you must help me find Xiaorui!"

Xiao Minghuang reached out her delicate hand to support Madam Luo, and gently comforted her, "Don't worry, I will find Xiaorui!"

Then, she turned her gaze to Luo Qianhua, who was standing timidly to the side.

Luo Qianhua Luo Qianrui's disappearance.

As long as she speaks, all questions can be answered.

In fact, she didn't even need to tell the truth.

Xiao Minghuang lightly flicked her jade fingers, using her causal supernatural powers to quickly deduce everything that had happened last night.

"Clear Spring Mountain... Oh no!"

When she examined the cause and effect behind Luo Qianrui, a massive, purplish-black causal line suddenly appeared, like an insurmountable chasm, directly severing the connection between her and the entire Eastern Extreme Great World!

Without any hesitation or explanation, she immediately waved her sleeve and took Xiao Luo Qianhua into her cave to prevent any further complications. Then, she flashed and headed straight for Clear Spring Mountain.

Madam Luo looked blankly at the suddenly vanished immortal Immortal Master's daughter, and collapsed to the ground as if all the strength had left her body.

Seeing this, the servants quickly stepped forward to help them up and carried them back into the house.

On Clear Spring Mountain.

Xiao Minghuang arrived at the mountaintop. The morning mist and trees obscured the view, making it difficult to see clearly.

But for her, none of this was a problem.

Her gaze swept across the mountaintop, and her Primordial Spirit power spread out to find Luo Qianrui's whereabouts.

However, she did not detect any human presence.

They found a Glazed Bottle, about the size of a longan, delicate and slightly cool, hidden in a thicket.

The bottle contained about half a bottle of liquid, which was likely the dew collected by Luo Qianrui.

"This..."

Looking at the Glazed Bottle before her, Xiao Minghuang felt extremely bitter; she had arrived too late after all.

She clenched her fists tightly, her nails almost digging into her skin, and a low voice squeezed out from her throat. "I'm not reconciled!"

"Since that's the case..."

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Minghuang closed her eyes and called out that name.

"Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles!"

"Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles!"

"The Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles..."

After three sounds.

A fallen leaf hovered in front of her, and time and space seemed to stand still. The surrounding scenery quickly faded away, turned to ashes, and dissipated into the air.

In this world, only one person remained.

He wore a long robe of dark gold, a crown of stars on his head, and held a staff with coiled dragons in his hand. His aura was overwhelming, and his power permeated the heavens and earth, causing all living beings to tremble.

However, facing the boundless, majestic, and Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles, Xiao Minghuang showed no respect and asked sharply, "Your Majesty, since you knew, why didn't you tell me!"

"Every drink and every bite is preordained; cause and effect are clearly defined. How can you blame Heaven?"

The voice of the Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles was calm and indifferent, unlike the kind and gentle voice of the Fisherman. Each word seemed to carry an irresistible power, awe-inspiring and intimidating.

"I'm not reconciled! I'm going to take her back!"

Xiao Minghuang gritted her teeth and said, "I don't believe in cause and effect, I only believe in myself!"

I'm giving you a chance; whether you succeed or not is entirely up to you.

The Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles lightly tapped the Coiled Dragon Staff, and a dazzling light burst forth, instantly darkening the heavens and earth.

A curtain of light condensed and transformed into a golden gate, unfolding before her.

The moment the gate opened, countless streams of demonic energy overflowed, almost bursting forth and ravaging the world.

359. Intruding into the Sea of Boundaries

"The road to the Southern Wilderness has been opened. You have only a quarter of an hour to catch up with the Silver Gourd Demon King, defeat her, and you can reclaim Luo Qianrui."

The Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles said indifferently, "I will not offer you any assistance. Take care of yourself."

Before the words were even finished, the golden gate burst open with a thunderous roar.

Xiao Minghuang gave him a deep look before leaping into the golden gate.

The Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles gazed at the golden door with eyes as deep as the starry sky, and the voice that came from his mouth was like an ancient sacred word.

"Fish that drown in a pond have never seen the vastness of rivers..."

"Well..."

The Lord of the Central and Eastern Poles sighed deeply and closed his eyes.

As soon as Xiao Minghuang rushed into the golden gate, he felt everything go black and there was complete silence around him, as if he had been transported to a void where nothing tangible existed.

But in the next moment, it seemed as if some barrier had been broken, and she had entered a completely new world.

A terrifying aura of evil swept in, filling every inch of space she could sense.

She looked up and saw shadowy figures looming in the distance: terrifying and ugly monsters, ferocious and violent beasts, hideous and bloodthirsty ghosts, and bizarre and grotesque evil spirits. All sorts of evil thoughts converged and intertwined, creating a chilling scene.

Endless negative forces are brewing and multiplying within it.

What's most bizarre is that they aren't just illusions, but real entities, attacking frantically like living creatures.

Xiao Minghuang's gaze was icy. He raised his hand and waved it in the air. A Sword Qi formed from pure Sun Power swept across, instantly annihilating all negative forces and shredding all the evil spirits and monsters.

But in the next instant, those monsters returned in droves, once again filling this land.

But in that brief instant, Xiao Minghuang noticed a faint pink light in the far distance, getting further and further away from her.

"It's Xiaorui!"

She immediately realized what was happening and sped towards the faint light.

Between the Southern Wilderness and the Easternmost Point of the Central Heaven lies a chaotic place where the two realms intersect, a place cultivators call the Sea of Boundaries.

A pale pink figure darted swiftly through the horde of demonic monsters.

In this chaotic space where even the laws of the Great Dao are in disarray, even a sage cannot tear through the void to leap across.

Even so, the Silver Gourd Demon King's speed remained extremely fast.

"In another quarter of an hour, we'll enter the Southern Wilderness..."

A look of regret appeared on the Silver Gourd Demon King's face as he thought to himself, "If that little girl from the Ziwei Sacred Land hadn't suddenly returned, I could have taken both Heavenly Desire Sacred Body with me. What a pity!"

After all, she had asked the Devil Master for a talisman, yet she still hadn't managed to do things perfectly. She probably wouldn't receive any reward upon returning.

"However, that little girl from the Ziwei Sacred Land actually broke our agreement. I'll report this to the Devil Master when we get back and give those old fogies a good talking to!"

Silver Gourd Demon King thought bitterly.

However, just as she was preparing to quicken her pace—

A beam of extremely bright and scorching sword light suddenly slashed from behind her without any warning. She had no time to defend herself and only managed to shift her body slightly to the side, but she was still struck in the right arm.

Pfft!

Her right arm was severed at the shoulder, blood splattered, and the entire arm was instantly burned to nothingness!

"Damn it! Who dares to ambush me?!"

The Silver Gourd Demon King's expression changed drastically, and he turned around and roared angrily.

But when she saw who it was, she was immediately stunned.

She turned her head and was shocked to see a slender woman standing not far behind her. She was wearing a bright yellow dress and had an extremely beautiful face. Her whole body was burning with golden flames, which showed the raging anger in her heart.

"Silver Gourd Demon King, hand over that child!"

Xiao Minghuang's tone was icy cold, containing a devastating rage.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The Silver Gourd Demon King suddenly laughed, looking at her with a mocking expression.

"A mere little brat from the King Realm dares to speak so arrogantly? I think you're courting death!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

Rumble!

The pink mist rolling behind the Silver Gourd Demon King suddenly exploded.

Countless pink bubbles burst open, turning into a shower of flowers that drifted in all directions. Huge pink mushroom clouds rose up, covering the void in pink!

The pink smoke was so thick that it almost solidified, emitting a strange fragrance.

Seeing Xiao Minghuang enveloped in pink smoke, the Silver Gourd Demon King sneered and said, "The foundation of my Joyful Union Dao Sect has never been fighting and killing, but this bewitching and bewitching art. If you dare to take this move head-on, little girl, you can just wait to die!"

Anyone who falls under her spell will be deluded, intoxicated by their own illusions, and linger in worldly bliss, quickly losing all their life force and dying!

Even a Saint King or Quasi-Emperor would likely be unable to withstand this mind-bewitching divine power, let alone this young King Realm cultivator.

However, just when she thought victory was assured...

A blazing sword beam suddenly slashed out from the pink smoke, piercing through layers of pink mist, heading straight for the Silver Gourd Demon King.

The sword light flashed like a rainbow, its momentum unstoppable!

"How is that possible?"

The Silver Gourd Demon King was greatly surprised. She never expected that this young girl would possess such terrifying strength. This sword light was like the majestic imperial might that could pierce through two worlds.

After a muffled thud, the pink sword light cleaved through the pink smoke, its remaining force striking her chest hard.

Her Saint Dao Law collapsed instantly, half of her body was severed, and a burst of blood mist exploded out!

Damn it!

The Silver Gourd Demon King gritted his teeth, utterly terrified.

She never imagined that this young girl would possess such terrifying fighting power.

But she refused to give up. She activated the Saint Dao Law, and her bones cracked and popped, her wounds healed instantly, and even the bloodstains disappeared.
