"Don't even think about it!"

"The ancient Ji family cannot be humiliated!"

Shouts and curses came from the Ji family members around them, their fierce eyes like those of hungry wolves, wishing they could tear Lu Xian to pieces on the spot.

"Then I'll cut off one of her legs first!"

Lu Xian sneered, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently moved his fingers, causing the silver-winged flying knives surrounding Ji Ziyue to instantly become agitated.

They danced around Ji Ziyue, creating a chilling gust of wind, as if forming an impenetrable vortex of death.

One of the silver-winged throwing knives stood out from the chaotic array of blades, shooting towards Ji Ziyue's calf like a silver lightning bolt.

The blade of the throwing knife gleamed with a chilling light. With a soft "hiss," the knife precisely grazed Ji Ziyue's fair and delicate calf, instantly leaving a shallow cut.

Crimson blood gushed from the wound. Ji Ziyue felt a sharp pain in her calf and couldn't help but cry out softly. She bit her red lips and almost cried out in fright. Just now, she almost really thought that she was going to have her leg cut off.

As the Little Moon of the Ji family, she possesses numerous protective treasures. Any one of these treasures can exert astonishing power in ordinary times, enough to turn danger into safety in critical moments.

However, at this moment, under the suppression of the mysterious power of the Suppressing God Tower, all the treasures in her Sea of ​​Bitterness were silenced and suppressed, unable to be activated at all, and she herself could not even move.

"No! Don't be impulsive! We'll do as you say!"

Witnessing his sister's injury, Ji Haoyue felt a surge of heat rush to his head. His eyes twitched uncontrollably, and he shouted almost without thinking, his voice tinged with panic.

For Ji Haoyue, the physical pain from the fist-sized bloody hole on his buttocks was nothing compared to the emotional shock he felt when his younger sister had a shallow cut on her calf.

A brother-obsessed maniac, terrifying indeed.

"Scatter! All of you, scatter!"

Ji Haoyue's face was ashen, his eyes bloodshot with rage. He gritted his teeth and roared with all his might, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority.

"Everyone do as he says!"

He then added, his tone becoming even more menacing.

The Ji family cultivators were filled with resentment and anger. They clenched their fists so tightly that their knuckles turned white from the force.

The ancient Ji family has always been high and mighty. When have they ever been threatened like this? Moreover, the one threatening them is just an ant in the Sea of ​​Wheels realm. What's worse, they have no choice but to comply.

One by one, the figures reluctantly retreated to both sides, each step feeling as if they were made of lead, slowly making way for a passage, and Lu Xian stood in the very center of this passage.

Yan Ruyu was incredibly intelligent. Even without Lu Xian's telepathic signal, she understood immediately upon seeing the situation. She commanded the demon army to seize the opportunity and quickly pass through the passage cleared by the Ji family cultivators, flanking Lu Xian on both sides.

"Your Highness is mighty!" A playful little fox demon ran past Lu Xian on a rainbow, squealing excitedly. Her voice was clear and melodious, echoing in the air like silver bells.

"My lord, I want to have your babies..." A little rabbit demon also shouted loudly, her red eyes full of admiration and worship, making no attempt to hide her love for Lu Xian.

Compared to the grim faces of the Ji family members, who looked as if their mothers had died, the scene on the demon side was completely joyful and lively.

Almost every little fairy couldn't help but utter a few flirtatious words as Yu Hong glided past Lu Xian, their words filled with praise and admiration for him.

Then, she didn't forget to throw in a seductive wink, her eyes brimming with charm that seemed to melt anyone's heart.

He single-handedly broke into the Ji family's encirclement, and amidst a multitude of experts, he managed to capture the Ji family's beloved Little Moon, thus opening a path to survival for the demon race.

The extraordinary strength and courage that Lu Xian displayed completely captivated these young ladies, causing them to become completely aroused.

At this moment, they wished they could immediately give themselves away and bear a bunch of fat sons for the prince consort.

Led by Qin Yao, the little demons of the demon race acted swiftly and broke through the encirclement in the blink of an eye.

They moved with graceful movements, riding on rainbow light, their laughter echoing. Freed from the pressure of the Ji family, each little fairy seemed like a spirit freed from its shackles, frequently turning back to cast eager glances at Lu Xian.

Yan Ruyu, with her equally graceful figure, deliberately lagged behind the rest of the group.

Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, her gaze fixed on the figure still surrounded, a hint of worry in her eyes.

Seeing that all the little fairies had broken out of the Ji family's encirclement and stopped on the distant horizon.

"I have kept my promise!"

Ji Haoyue suppressed the raging anger within her and said in a deep voice, "Can you release them now?"

"That won't do." Lu Xian curled his lips. "If I release them and your Ji family immediately turns on me and starts hunting me down, I'll have a real headache."

His tone was light, but it only fueled Ji Haoyue's anger.

Ji Haoyue's eyes instantly turned cold, like two incredibly sharp ice blades shooting straight at Lu Xian, and she said in a low voice, "Then what else do you want!"

At this moment, his hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles turned white from the force, and his body was trembling slightly uncontrollably. He was clearly on the verge of exploding, having been thoroughly enraged by Lu Xian.

But he simply didn't dare to make a move; Lu Xian held his lifeline in his grasp.

In Ji Haoyue's eyes, everyone present combined was less valuable than a single hair on his sister's head.

"Once we enter the domain gate, we'll cross it and leave." Lu Xian replied calmly and in a flat tone. As soon as he finished speaking, the Suppressing God Tower emitted a burst of light, and a suction force emanated, directly drawing Ji Ziyue and the silver wings surrounding her into it, transforming them into a stream of light that flew into his Sea of ​​Bitterness.

Immediately afterwards, the Suppressing God Tower also transformed into a stream of light, quickly darting into Lu Xian's Sea of ​​Bitterness and disappearing from sight.

Just as Lu Xian was about to ride away on his rainbow, dozens of figures appeared like ghosts and quickly blocked his path.

"What, do you really want me to give you a leg?" Lu Xian's expression remained unchanged, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, and he sneered.

"Let him go!"

Ji Haoyue's face was ashen. With a wave of his hand, his voice was full of helplessness and anger. The dozens of people from the Ji family who had been blocking the way, though unwilling, stepped back one after another, making way for him.

Lu Xian remained calm and composed as he rode the rainbow through the air, leaving only a soft laugh echoing in the sky. This laugh sounded particularly grating to the ears of the many cultivators from the Ji family, as if it were a merciless mockery and humiliation.

Lu Xian rode the rainbow with incredible speed, quickly arriving beside Yan Ruyu who was waiting. He smiled faintly, raising his eyebrows, his eyes gleaming with pride, and said as if to claim credit, "How was it? Not only did I defeat the enemy in one move, but I also opened a path to survival for the little demons."

Yan Ruyu's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she smiled sweetly, captivatingly beautiful. She said softly, "Although I don't know how you did it, it's really amazing. Thank you."

"Saying thank you to me would be too formal between us." Lu Xian smiled and leaned close to her ear, speaking in a voice only the two of them could hear, with a hint of ambiguity: "Last night the rain was sparse and the wind was strong, the deep night did not dispel the lingering effects of the wine, with a beauty in my arms, I could not appreciate the fading beauty of the flowers..."

"If you really want to thank me, why don't you give your husband another chance tonight, Yu'er?"

The warm breath gently brushed against Yan Ruyu's ear, like a feather lightly touching her skin, instantly turning her cheeks a rosy red.

Yan Ruyu was both embarrassed and annoyed. She glared at Lu Xian, her watery eyes filled with a mixture of reproach and shyness, as if she were blaming Lu Xian for saying such frivolous words at this time.

However, there was a hint of unspeakable emotion hidden in those eyes, like a flower bud about to bloom in spring, carrying a touch of coquettishness, yet also containing a faint shyness.

Without pausing, she let out a soft shout, mounted the rainbow light, and rushed forward like a dazzling shooting star, catching up with the main force of the demon race in the blink of an eye.

With her graceful figure, she roamed at the front of the group, leading the little fairies in a grand procession towards the domain gate.

Lu Xian did not follow immediately, but deliberately lagged behind the demon army by some distance.

He remained calm, glancing back occasionally.

Behind him, Ji Haoyue, nearly a hundred meters away, had a face so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.

He led the many cultivators of the Ji family, following behind at a leisurely pace. His eyes were fixed on Lu Xian like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey. He would not give up until Lu Xian returned Ji Ziyue to him.

The Ji family members were all radiating a suppressed aura, remaining silent, like the calm before a storm.

Nothing happened along the way.

After leaving the territory of Wei, they arrived at a desolate mountain valley. The trees here were arranged strangely, and many mysterious Dao patterns could be faintly seen around them. Little demons came to meet them ahead, so this must be a stronghold of the demon race.

In the original story, the demon race was already in decline and inferior to the human race. Although the demon princess Yan Ruyu had a noble status, her prestige among the demon race was declining day by day, and she did not have a particularly powerful backer to rely on.

Therefore, in order to evacuate smoothly in times of crisis, the demon race set up many similar secret strongholds in various places.

Recalling the original story, Yan Ruyu's great battle with the Ji family in the Wei Kingdom was extremely fierce, almost wiping out her closest and most loyal supporters. Very few of her demon clan members survived, and she almost became a commander without any troops.

This time, thanks to Lu Xian's help, her subordinates did not suffer too much loss. Compared with the original story, her situation is undoubtedly much better now.

In the center of the valley, a magnificent platform stands tall.

The platform was entirely constructed from pieces of warm, lustrous black jade, each piece radiating a soft yet magnificent light. These lights intertwined, forming a radiant beam that shot into the sky. Yan Ruyu had already opened a dazzling domain gate, and more than ten old demon women, along with many little demons, stepped into it, traversing the void. Ye Fan and Xiao Yan followed them in.

Before long, only Yan Ruyu remained outside the domain gate.

She stood quietly on the high platform, a gentle breeze ruffling her cascading hair, her gaze fixed on Lu Xian, who was slowly walking towards the platform.

"You should go first and wait for me in the Northern Region," Lu Xian said.

Yan Ruyu did not respond. She turned her head slightly, her beautiful eyes flashing like lightning as she glanced at the Ji family cultivators who were gradually approaching. She frowned slightly. Crossing the void was not uninterrupted. Unless they had already crossed a certain distance in the void and were beyond their reach, they were likely to be interrupted by a powerful figure, resulting in the destruction of the void passage and the failure of the crossing.

Among the cultivators from the Ji family, many were capable of doing this, and she feared that Lu Xian would not be able to leave safely after handing over the hostages.

"Don't worry, I have a way to escape. You take the little fairies and go first, don't hold me back." Lu Xian noticed Yan Ruyu's worry and said to her through telepathy.

Yan Ruyu gave him a deep look, her eyes filled with complex emotions—worry, trust, and a hint of reluctance.

"Remember your words," she said softly, then turned and stepped into the domain gate without further hesitation.

The light engulfed her figure, the domain gate slowly closed, and only Lu Xian's figure remained on the Xuan Yu Platform.

At this moment, the Tower of Suppression roared out of the Sea of ​​Bitterness. As soon as the tower appeared, it grew larger in the wind and instantly became like a majestic small mountain, steadily floating above Lu Xian's head.

"They've all left, now you can finally hand them over!" Ji Haoyue said, suppressing her anger as she stood below the Xuan Yu Platform.

"Not yet, wait a little longer..."

Lu Xian remained calm and composed, a faint smile on his face. The Ancient Ji family had a profound foundation in the Dao of Void and were all experts in manipulating the void. To be on the safe side, he had to wait until Yan Ruyu and the others had crossed a greater distance before he could proceed.

Time slipped away quietly in this tense standoff, and the wait lasted for nearly ten minutes.

Every second seemed to stretch out, the air thick with a suffocating sense of oppression. The Ji family members stared intently at Lu Xian, their eyes icy, while Lu Xian remained calm and composed.

Finally, Lu Xian made a move. The Suppressing God Tower above his head was glowing. Ji Haoyue was overjoyed when she saw this, thinking that Lu Xian was finally going to release her younger sister.

He made up his mind that as long as his sister could return to his side safely, he would immediately order the Ji family to swarm Lu Xian and beat him to death to avenge this humiliation.

To his disappointment, Lu Xian did not release Ji Ziyue as he wished, and instead took the entire Xuan Yu platform into the Zhen Shen Tower, leaving only a large pit in its place.

"What do you mean by this?" Ji Haoyue frowned and said coldly. Could it be that this kid knew he wouldn't let him go, so he was going to throw caution to the wind?

Ji Haoyue didn't quite understand this move that directly cut off his own escape route.

"It doesn't mean anything..."

Lu Xian smiled faintly: "By the way, Xiao Ji, do you usually focus more on the process or the result?"

Ji Haoyue frowned even more deeply. "I only care about the result. The result I want right now is for you to hand over my sister immediately. Don't try any tricks!"

Lu Xian ignored him and continued, "Focusing on results, huh? The result is that I can't hand over a single thing right now! After all, I'm someone who values ​​the process. For example, how about exchanging a million catties of Origin, or your Ji family's ancient scriptures and sacred techniques? What do you say?"

"If we don't switch, don't worry. I won't do anything too outrageous to your sister. At most, I'll make her go back to the Ji family with a big belly..."
