Song Wen deliberately mentioned the 'Soul-Severing Talisman' and the 'Law Power Shield' in order to gain Shan Yue's trust.

The Soul-Severing Talisman and the Law Power Shield are Xing Xinxin and Xing Chang's trump cards for survival, and they certainly won't easily reveal them to outsiders.

Song Wen's mention of these two treasures confirms that he had seen them with his own eyes.

"Then why is my son's Message Jade Slip in your hands?"

After careful consideration, Shan Yue pointed out the flaw in Song Wen's words.

Song Wen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although this Shan Yue is arrogant, they are not entirely without brains.

"Young Master Xing threw it to me at the last moment before he was trapped by the formation."

Shan Yue's red lips were slightly pursed, her delicate brows were slightly furrowed, and her expression was somewhat solemn.

According to Wei Ding, this matter must not be told to the rest of the Xing Family.

There's another thing that's been bothering Shan Yue quite a bit.

Xing Xinxin is not dead!

If she returns to the Xing Family alive, this matter will surely be exposed. At that time, Xing Chang will also be subject to family discipline.

"That little bitch must die!"

Shan Yue's eyes were filled with ruthlessness.

"Take me to the place where Chang'er is trapped," Shan Yue commanded without room for argument.

She seemed completely unconcerned that Song Wen would do anything to harm her.

Although Song Wen's cultivation level was two minor realms higher than hers, her life-saving trump cards were far superior to those of Xing Chang and Xing Xinxin.

There was absolutely no way a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage could threaten her safety.

Song Wen narrowed his eyes. "Madam Xing, it seems you've forgotten something?"

Shan Yue said unhappily, "What do you mean by this?"

"We had an agreement, one hundred Superior Spirit Stones."

Shan Yue angrily retorted, "You dare to demand Spirit Stone before even seeing Chang'er!"

A cold smile appeared on Song Wen's lips.

"You can't blame me for that. I saved Xing Chang's life twice, yet you and your son only rewarded me with ten thousand low-grade Spirit Stone. If I hadn't secured some deserved benefits beforehand, I'm afraid you and your son would have dismissed me with a pittance."

Song Wen perfectly portrayed the character's greedy nature.

Shan Yue gritted her teeth, her phoenix eyes blazing with fury.

"Fine, here's the Spirit Stone. If you dare to deceive me, you'll have nowhere to hide in the entire Sea of Disorder."

A hundred Superior Spirit Stones is an astronomical figure for an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, but it is nothing in the context of Shan Yue.

Shan Yue was usually stingy with her money, but since it concerned Xing Chang's life, she gave the Spirit Stone to Song Wen without hesitation.

With barely concealed greed and excitement in his eyes, Song Wen counted the Spirit Stone several times before storing them in his storage ring.

He acted this way to make Shan Yue believe that he was driven by self-interest to tip her off, thus lowering Shan Yue's Jie Xin.

"Can you take me to see Chang'er now?" Shan Yue urged.

Song Wen gestured eastward, "Madam Xing, please!"

That night, at the hour of Chou (1-3 AM).

Song Wen arrived at the Rift Valley in Shan Yue.

"Madam Xing, Young Master Xing is trapped in this Cave. There are many poisonous insects inside, so please be careful."

What Song Wen said at this moment was almost exactly the same as what he had said to Xing Chang several hours earlier.

The Cave was deep and dark, resembling the gaping maw of Demon Beast.

Having never experienced any danger in my life during this Shan Yue, my heart began to race, and a strange tension and unease welled up deep within me.

She instinctively took two steps back.

"Wei Ding, you go first."

Song Wen had no objection and stepped into the Cave.

Shan Yue watched as Song Wen's figure gradually disappeared into the dark Cave.

She composed herself, a Law Power shield emanating from her body, before stepping into the Cave.

The Law Power shield around her was far stronger than Xing Chang's; it was left behind by Nascent Soul Cultivator had expended his cultivation.

Soon, the two arrived at the depths of the Cave.

When Shan Yue saw that Xing Chang and Xing Xinxin were both trapped in the formation and had already fainted, Shan Yue became extremely anxious.

"Chang'er!"

Shan Yue exclaimed in surprise and quickly flew towards the formation.

"Bang!"

As Shan Yue crashed into the array barrier, the immense recoil sent her flying back.

However, she was protected by a Law Power shield and was not injured.

"Tsk tsk, Madam Xing, you'd better be careful. This formation is a third-tier formation. You have Law Power shield protecting you, so naturally you can't be harmed, but Young Master Xing inside the formation doesn't have a shield. If he rashly charges into the formation and causes it to activate, Young Master Xing will be in grave danger!"

Upon hearing this, Shan Yue gradually calmed down.

Xing Chang, who is currently safe within the formation, should indeed take a long-term approach and find a way to break the formation.

Then, she suddenly realized that the tone of Wei Ding's voice just now seemed to have ill intentions.

Shan Yue turned to look at Song Wen and questioned him sharply.

"Wei Ding, you're the one who orchestrated all of this?"

Song Wen wore a gentle smile.

"I have a matter I wish to ask Madam Xing for help with, and I have no choice but to resort to this drastic measure."

Anger blazed in Shan Yue's phoenix eyes.

"How dare you lay a hand on the children of the Xing Family's patriarch!"

Song Wen's smile remained unchanged.

"Madam, shouldn't you first consider the safety of the Xing Chang and yourself?"

"You..."

The anger in Shan Yue's eyes intensified, and her ample bosom heaved rapidly.

"Wei Ding, although I don't know what methods you used to severely injure Chang'er and Xing Xinxin, your idea of keeping me here is utterly delusional. Once I return to the Xing Family, it will be your death day."

"It seems Madam Xing doesn't want to save Young Master Xing?"

The smile on Song Wen's face gradually turned into an indescribable sinister one.

Shan Yue said sternly, "Do you really dare to kill them?"

Xing Chang and Xing Xinxin have soul imprints on them. If you kill them, the imprints will be transferred to Song Wen.

This is also why Shan Yue are so emboldened.

A strange smile appeared on Song Wen's lips.

"Madam Xing, you can give it a try."

As he spoke, a Formation Plate appeared in Song Wen's hand.

Song Wen made two hand Method Formula, and a fierce wind immediately howled within the <Four Symbols Reversal Formation>.

Xing Chang and Xing Xinxin were unconscious and offered no resistance, their skin torn and bleeding from the strong wind.

"Stop!"

He roared loudly in the Shan Yue.

However, Song Wen remained unmoved.

The gale-force winds within the formation continued unabated.

"Stop! Stop it now..."

Shan Yue looked at Xing Chang, whose body was a bloody mess within the formation, two lines of clear tears streamed down her beautiful face.

"Please, I'm begging you, stop..."

She pleaded almost hysterically in Shan Yue.

"Oh? Madam Xing is actually asking me for help. Then I'll grant her that request."

Before the words were finished, the gale within the formation abruptly stopped.

Looking at the battered and bruised Xing Chang, Shan Yue's eyes welled up with tears.

"Wei Ding, how cruel you are."

Song Wen said, "Madam Xing, your attitude doesn't seem like you're asking for a favor."

Shan Yue said, "What do you want? Do you want me to kneel down and beg you?"

"Remove your Law Power shield," Song Wen said coldly.

"That's impossible!" Shan Yue refused outright.

Song Wen raised the Formation Plate in his hand.

"Madam, you wouldn't want your young master to die here at such a young age, would you?"
