After maxing out my affinity, my signature weapon kept evolving.

Ren Qiuyue has always used her spirit weapon-level weapon, the Ice Heart Sword, as her main weapon, because she has never encountered an enemy that forced her to defend herself.

But this was her first time encountering a void creature in its physical form, and the transition from theory to practice was quite difficult. Ren Qiuyue knew she could no longer hide her abilities.

After blocking another attack from the void creatures, Ren Qiuyue took out a scroll from her storage bracelet and threw it into the air.

The scroll unfurled on its own, revealing a formation drawn on it. Upon seeing the formation, the void monster, as if reacting to a jolt, began to exhale.

"Aaaaaaah! I'm going to kill you!"

The violent roar shook everyone present, and some of the seriously injured even began to bleed from their seven orifices and lost consciousness.

"Xie Wenyuan, you continue absorbing the void power within them. City Lord and Doctor Sun, move them to a safe place. I'll deal with this monster!"

The formation took shape in the air, and countless golden chains shot out from it, piercing the earth and firmly locking the enormous body of the void monster, which continued to shrink.

Xie Wenyuan increased his speed, continuously absorbing the void power of the corrupted people, but he was already at his limit, relying solely on his willpower to sustain himself.

"Ta-da!"

Suddenly, beautiful piano music rang out, sweeping away Xie Wenyuan's physical fatigue, and his consciousness gradually returned to clarity.

"This is... Yue'er!"

Xie Wenyuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zhao Yue and Sun Miaoran appear in the forest. Judging from Sun Miaoran's panting, she must have rushed over as fast as she could.

"What are you doing here? Go back! It's dangerous here!"

Xie Wenyuan had never been so anxious before; he truly hadn't expected these two girls to come over on their own.

Sun Huazeng, who was rushing to save people, was furious when he saw the two women, but he couldn't waste time saying anything more in the current situation. Saving people was his priority.

Zhao Yue remained unmoved, continuing to pluck the strings. Not only Xie Wenyuan, but everyone present felt a surge of energy, and even their consciousness, which had been eroded by the void, was gradually being pulled back.

Everyone looked at the veiled woman. Was she a goddess descended to earth to save humanity?

At the same time, Sun Miaoran also raised her bronze ruler, and a green halo enveloped everyone present, causing the wounds inflicted by the void monster to begin to heal slowly.

Ren Qiuyue glanced at the scene on the ground, then looked at the two women, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes.

Compared to Xie Wenyuan, whose future is uncertain, these two girls are the ones with a truly promising future. Both of their abilities are considered strategic-level in the void battlefield.

The melodious zither music not only affected Renqiu City, but also the void monsters composed of the Ren family members.

"Aaaaaah, stop!"

Ren Xudong could clearly sense that the body he was in control of was beginning to slip out of his control, and the innocent people he had forcibly absorbed were awakening their own consciousness and beginning to resist.

However, among these thoughts, there was an outlier, or rather, an oddball, who actually developed greed after seeing Zhao Yue, who was like a fairy descended from heaven.

"Father, I want her! I want to make her wish she were dead! I want Xie Wenyuan to watch me torture her! Hahahaha!"

At this moment, Ren Xingyuan was even more frenzied than Ren Xudong, and for a moment he even showed a tendency to replace Ren Xudong and take control of the body.

"You brat, we're gods now! Why should we care about those mortals! As long as we kill them all today and absorb them, we can have any woman we want!"

Xie Wenyuan looked at the monster, who seemed to be fighting between its left and right brains and even had unrealistic ideas about Yue'er, and really wanted to kill it with a single blow.

As the void monsters began to struggle, the golden chains began to sway, and some even started to crack.

Ren Qiuyue knew she couldn't delay any longer, so she held a sword in her left hand and a shield in her right, unleashing her full aura like a Valkyrie from mythology.

Sword and shield clashed, and a huge phantom of Xuanwu appeared in the air, roaring at the void monster in front of it.

Immediately afterwards, the Xuanwu rushed towards the void monster, piercing it and creating a huge hole.

But after this attack, Ren Qiuyue lost consciousness, her head lolled to the side, and she fell from the sky.

As luck would have it, she landed right where Xie Wenyuan was. He had just finished absorbing the void power for others and was trying to recover when she hit him unexpectedly.

"No, who exactly is your target?"

With a sigh, Xie Wenyuan put her aside and called Sun Miaoran to treat her injuries.

After suffering this fatal blow, the void monster did not stop its movements. Instead, it struggled even more violently, and some of the chains were even torn off.

"Still not dead? Looks like we'll have to owe the Holy Church another favor. Please ask the two protectors to help."

Wang Changqing had also reached his limit. He sat on the ground to adjust his state. Seeing the powerful vitality of the void monster, he felt a sense of despair for a moment.

However, once a person has a way out, he doesn't want to take any more risks, so he thinks of calling upon the left and right protectors of the Holy Church.

Sun Huazeng had already escorted everyone to a safe area and was now wielding his long staff to finish off the void monsters.

With a wave of her hand, Zhao Yue's zither music suddenly turned chilling. After being attacked by the sound waves, the void monster began its final counterattack.

The tentacles broke free of the out-of-control golden chains and then swept towards the group; although the gaping maw in its abdomen was frozen, this time the void monster's head began to gather power, and purple light began to bloom, as if it was about to use the same trick again to release a beam of light.

But Xie Wenyuan wouldn't let it succeed. He hurled his longsword, which even broke the sound barrier and pierced the head of the void monster before the beam of light was emitted.

The charge was interrupted, and the beam of light that was about to be released exploded in the monster's mouth, even affecting the Spirit Rhinoceros Blade and blasting it away.

Xie Wenyuan, on the other hand, suffered a backlash from the destruction of his spiritual weapon, spitting out a mouthful of blood and experiencing excruciating pain in his dantian.

Fortunately, the Spirit Rhinoceros Blade was not so fragile. Under Xie Wenyuan's will, it flew back into Xie Wenyuan's hand.

"Brother Xie, are you alright? Let me heal your wounds!"

Sun Miaoran asked worriedly, then adjusted the aura to cover Xie Wenyuan only.

After severing the onrushing tentacles one by one, Sun Huazeng noticed the monster starting to explode and anxiously shouted:

"Run! It's about to self-destruct!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, the enormous body of the void monster exploded with a deafening roar, and countless fragments tore through the air and flew in all directions.

At this moment, Ren Qiuyue, who had the strongest defense, was unconscious, and everyone could only watch helplessly as the shockwave from the explosion swept towards them.

However, just as the explosion was about to reach them, time seemed to freeze, the explosion suddenly stopped, and then gradually dissipated.

"Wang Changqing, do you know you've made a grave mistake? If Xie Wenyuan dies, you won't survive either."
