Chapter 300

It's around this time.

Suddenly, a dark void appeared on the distant horizon, rapidly encroaching towards the center.

Tianji Holy Son immediately shouted, "Oh no! The entire secret realm is about to collapse! We must leave immediately!"

The others nodded in agreement.

If they hadn't been waiting for Xiao Minghuang and the others, they probably would have left long ago.

However, Xiao Minghuang shook her head.

"You guys go first, I need to go find someone, then I'll leave."

"Then... take care, Princess!"

Tianji Holy Son cupped his hands in greeting, then flew into the exit of the ancient tomb.

The others, who had no connection with Xiao Minghuang, simply said "Take care" and quickly left.

The vast void caused by exploring the secret realm was enough to annihilate any King-level cultivator, so they dared not linger.

Lin Wanqiu, Xu Xiuer, and the others, however, did not leave so easily. They remained where they were, watching her with unwavering gazes.

Seeing this, Xiao Minghuang chuckled and said, "I'm just going to find someone, not to duel anyone, why are you all so nervous?"

"Whom does Your Highness wish to see?"

"I asked, "Xu Xiuer.

Xiao Minghuang opened her mouth, about to answer, when she heard a loud roar from outside, followed by two figures chasing each other.

The cultivator being chased was a man dressed in black robes, pale-faced, covered in blood, and with an extremely weak aura.

Meanwhile, the cultivator pursuing them was a woman. She wore a white dress, had a slender and exquisite figure, and snow-white, crystal-clear skin. She was cold and beautiful, and exuded a murderous aura.

What's even more surprising is that the woman was enveloped in an eerie pale pink mist, as if shrouded in a thin veil, obscuring her face.

The man being chased, looking utterly disheveled, barely dodged a pale pink beam of light. Seeing Xiao Minghuang and the others in the distance, he immediately shouted, "Fellow Daoist, save me! That woman is a demon, she's chasing me!"

He immediately grasped at a straw and sped towards them.

"Your Highness, the one being chased seems to be the same Wang Clan Divine Son who surrounded and attacked us at the Immortal Palace before."

Xu Xiuer recognized her and immediately reminded her.

Xiao Minghuang nodded, "He escaped from the Immortal Palace before, but I didn't expect to run into him again here."

"Your Highness, shall we make a move?"

Xu Xiuer inquired.

If the two people in front of me were both cultivators from the Eastern Pole, there would be no need for this question; I could simply settle my score.

But what they were seeing was clearly demons from the Southern Wilderness chasing after cultivators from the Eastern Pole.

Among the cultivators of Zhongtian Dongji, there is an unwritten rule.

In other words, no matter how many internal conflicts exist in the Eastern Pole, if the Southern Wilderness demons intervene, the demons must be eliminated first before resolving the internal conflicts.

It is precisely this unity that has enabled Zhongtian Dongji to maintain its advantage when facing the fearless demons of the Southern Wilderness.

After a moment's thought, Xiao Minghuang waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Although this person once surrounded and killed us, we cannot stand by and watch him die at the hands of evil!"

Even if it means death, they must first eliminate the evil spirits and personally avenge their grievances!

"Yes!"

Xu Xiuer was very eager and rushed out directly towards the Witch.

Seeing this, Xiao Minghuang was immediately surprised. Why was Xu Xiuer suddenly so enthusiastic about fighting?

"I remember she didn't seem to have fought much, did she?"

"Perhaps he has gained some insights, and therefore wants to put them into practice."

The Sacred Maiden of Yaochi did not leave, and speculated, "Before, after the princess left, Fellow Daoist Xu accumulated his strength but his cultivation did not improve much. He kept saying he wanted to find someone to practice with, so I suppose that's why."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Minghuang couldn't help but smile. It seems that no matter who it is, as long as they embark on the path of cultivation, they will eventually develop a fighting spirit.

Ye Ruoshui was like this, and so was Xu Xiuer.

To possess power and not use it is an impossible thing for anyone.

As they were talking.

Xu Xiuer rushed forward and began fighting the Witch.

Taking advantage of this lull, Wang Xuan escaped the Witch's pursuit and was about to come up to thank Xiao Minghuang and the others.

But when she saw Xiao Minghuang's face clearly, she was immediately shocked.

"Princess Xiao!"

Before he could finish speaking...

He turned and ran.

However, his reaction was far too slow.

I had only taken a few steps outside.

Xiao Minghuang gently raised her hand, made a grasping motion in the air, and several silver chains materialized out of thin air, binding her and pulling her closer.

"Princess Xiao..."

Wang Xuan was so frightened that his face turned deathly pale and his whole body trembled.

He hadn't expected Princess Xiao to be here.

Hunted by Witch and in a panic, he sought help from Princess Xiao, truly escaping one danger only to fall into another.

391. Capture

"Prince Wang, how have you been?"

The Sacred Maiden of Yaochi said with a smile.

You shouldn't have chased me down.

Xiao Minghuang said coldly.

Wang Xuan cried out in despair, his face filled with fear. "Princess Xiao, spare me! I didn't mean to offend you. I only went to the Immortal Palace with them; it was all the Holy Son Ziwei who forced me!"

He was still struggling in his death throes.

"Oh, is that so?"

A playful smile curved Xiao Minghuang's lips.

The next moment, the chains suddenly tightened, causing Wang Xuan to howl in pain.

After a moment, he pleaded in anguish, "Princess Xiao, please spare me..."

"Snort!"

After catching his breath, Xiao Minghuang released the chains, and Wang Xuan collapsed to the ground like a dead dog.

"Once we get out, I will hand you over to the Holy Academy for disposal!"

Xiao Minghuang said calmly.

"Thank you, Princess Xiao, for sparing my life!"

Wang Xuan quickly got up and thanked him profusely.

"Tsk tsk tsk, if only Prince Wang had known this would happen, why did he do it in the first place?"

The Sacred Maiden of Yaochi chuckled softly.

"Hehe... Thank you for your joke, Saintess..."

Wang Xuan said awkwardly.

At this moment, Xu Xiuer was locked in a fierce battle with the Witch.

The two spells collided, sparks flew, and immense power surged forth.

After Xu Xiuer broke through, her cultivation level reached the third level of the King Realm. Although her cultivation level was not high, her actual combat strength was not low at all.

He had just entered the King Realm and was able to join forces with Ye Ruoshui to kill Ji Changkong was at the twelfth level of the King Realm.

Now that his cultivation has improved, he has become more and more proficient in using Witch Destiny Divine Ability. He can always predict the Witch's actions a split second before she launches an attack, causing her attacks to miss.

Although she cannot defeat the Witch in a short time, once she understands the cause and effect of the opponent's past, she can launch a decisive attack in an instant!

Just like when he faced Ji Changkong.

As for the Witch, she was equally powerful, possessing exquisite and unparalleled magical skills. Her figure was graceful and alluring, and every move she made was like a dance.

The pale pink glow emanating from her body was dreamlike and enchanting, but it was fraught with danger; a single misstep could result in her being beheaded.

More importantly, Xu Xiuer could sense that the Witch's body seemed to be constantly emanating a strange aura, giving her the illusion that she wanted to back down and make peace.

Therefore, both sides are in a situation where neither can do anything about the other.

But to outsiders, the two were evenly matched.

Wang Xuan was dumbfounded by this scene.

What is Xu Xiuer's cultivation level?

It's unbelievable that someone at the early stage of the King Realm could contend with Witch to a draw.

You should know that the Witch had just killed him so badly that he had to flee in a sorry state. If he hadn't encountered Xiao Minghuang and her group, he would probably have been killed by her by now.

However, he seemed to have forgotten that the Witch's cultivation level was actually not very high, and was only about the same as Xu Xiuer's.

Watching the two locked in combat in the air, Xiao Minghuang's gaze sharpened slightly, and she said, "Wang Xuan, tell me how you encountered the Witch after you left the Immortal Palace."

"Yes!"

Wang Xuan quickly recounted what had happened.

Actually, things aren't that complicated.

After Wang Xuan took out the Immortal Palace, fearing that Xiao Minghuang would search for and kill him after escaping, he hid in one place until the exit of the ancient tomb was about to open before leaving.

But on the way to the exit, they suddenly ran into the Witch.

He had no intention of exorcising demons; he only wanted to leave the ancient tomb and return to the Northern Plains as soon as possible. But the Witch attacked him directly.

At first, he didn't take the Witch seriously, but after fighting her, he discovered that Witch was far stronger than him, so he began his escape.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Minghuang frowned.

"So, some of the demons that infiltrated the Eastern Pole have escaped?"

Previously, Ren Wuqing's subordinates were all burned to death by her, Ren Wuqing herself also died at the hands of Innate Osmanthus and Burial King Supreme Being.

Of all the people still remaining in the ancient tomb, only one Witch should remain.

Xiao Minghuang turned her gaze to the horizon.

At this moment, after hundreds of rounds of combat, Xu Xiuer had almost figured out the Witch's secrets.

Instantly, she leaped into the clouds, chanting the mantra of destiny, and with a sword-finger gesture, swung her hand sharply at the Witch.

I said, you will be bound!

An invisible ray of light, almost tangible, pierced through the Witch's body, but caused her no harm.

The Witch looked down and examined her entire body, but found no injuries, so she didn't pay them any mind. Then she leaped high into the air, her whole body radiating pink light, and she became like a sharp sword, stabbing straight at Xu Xiuer.

"Snort!"

Facing the powerful Witch's attack, Xu Xiuer smiled slightly, neither dodging nor flinching.

Just as the Witch was about to strike her, a sudden change occurred.

Splash!

Countless silver chains condensed in the void, densely packed and overwhelming, sweeping in from all directions, locking the body tightly and binding it completely.

"This is... the Void Chains?!"
