"It's nothing, just a little painful." As he spoke, a streak of bright red flowed down Xiandu Muyouma's forehead.

But even so, there was still a smile on her face, she was free!

"Nice to meet you, Fourth True Ancestor."

Following a gentle and intellectual voice, a graceful figure dressed in a gorgeous twelve-piece kimono landed lightly on the top of the prison barrier wall, looking down at Akatsuki Kojou and the other two.

"Mother, Mother..."

There was no fight as in the plot, and Sentoki Yuuma was in good condition. She raised her head a little nervously and saw her creator for the first time.

"Are you Yuuma's mother?"

Akatsuki Kojou's face darkened slightly as he looked up at Sentomu Aya. The other person's appearance... Himeragi Setsuna beside him also echoed Akatsuki Kojou's thoughts, saying, "She looks exactly like Yuuma."

"Of course. That girl is just a copy of me. She is just my shadow, created to break the seal of the prison barrier."

As he spoke, Xiandu Mu Aye slowly raised his hand, and pointed his slender white index finger at Youma...

"Ahhhh——!"

A miserable scream.

Xiandu Mu Yuma curled up her body, and a blue shadow appeared behind her. The blue armor was stained with black magic patterns - this was the power that Aye gave to her, and of course it could also be taken back.

"Yuuma!"

Akatsuki Kojou didn't understand anything. At this moment, he could only hug Yuma tightly but didn't know what to do. He suddenly felt very powerless.

"Hey, Aye~"

At this moment, Xiandu Mu Aye recalled some scenes, although most of them were false memories: a figure gently called her name, with a warm smile on his face...

Sentomu Aya's progress in stripping Yuma's guardian, Aoi, came to a halt. Recalling those false yet heartwarming images, she felt momentarily bored and withdrew her index finger.

349. Change of Person

"Yuuma, how are you?"

Akatsuki Kojou held onto Sendoki Yuuma's arm tightly, his heart filled with worry.

Fortunately, Yuma recovered soon after, thanks to Sentomu Aya's cancellation of the technique. She raised a trembling hand and placed it on Akatsuki Kojou's large hand, shaking her head weakly.

It seems that everything is fine... Seeing this, Akatsuki Kojou was relieved. He stood up and looked at Sentomu Aya - Yuma was his friend, he had to ask for an explanation for her.

"Hey, what do you mean?"

As he spoke, golden lightning exploded on Xiao Gucheng's body, with a faint threat.

"It has nothing to do with you."

In response, Xiandu Mu Aye didn't want to pay much attention. He turned his head and looked at the distant Genshin Island. "If you have the time, why don't you take the girl away first before I change my mind."

"You guy...!"

Akatsuki Kojou was about to say something when he suddenly felt someone pulling his trouser leg - it was Yuuma. She was helped up by Himerahira Setsuna and looked at the so-called "mother" with some sadness.

"Mother, you, you really don't have anything to say to me?"

There was still a last glimmer of hope in Xiandumu Yuma's eyes, but unfortunately... it was meaningless.

"Do you want me to remind you? Cang's power comes from me. Allowing you to keep this power is already the limit."

Perhaps influenced by that vision, Ah Ye showed a rare touch of humanity and explained a few more words. She glanced at Xiandumu Yuma again and said, "...That's it~ You're free."

There was silence.

At the very end, Xiandumu Yuma looked at his "mother" again, bowed deeply to her, and then pulled Akatsuki Kojou's sleeve, "Go back, Kojou, I'm a little tired."

"Is that it?"

To be honest, Akatsuki Kojou was unwilling to accept this, but considering Yuma's relationship with the other party... he didn't know what to do.

"Xendumu Aya, the secretary's witch."

At this moment, a gentle voice rang out. Behind Ah Ye, figures appeared one after another—the prisoners who had been imprisoned in the prison barrier.

"Oh, are you just a few?" Aye glanced over and found that only six people came out.

"if not?"

The yellow-haired guy sitting on the far left was shouting loudly, showing the bracelet on his left hand to Xiandumu Aye, and suddenly attacked a gentleman dressed next to him.

The invisible blade tore through the gentleman's chest, rendering him powerless with just one blow, and then...

With the sound of chains, the chain of discipline extended from the gentleman's bracelet and tied him up in an instant.

A dark purple space spell unfolded, dragging the man back to the prison... Now there are only five left.

"You see, once their magic or physical strength weakens, they will be quickly dragged back into the barrier. As for the remaining group? They are too weak to even leave the barrier!"

The yellow-haired man was still cursing and didn't care at all about the guy who was beaten back into the barrier by him.

"I see, the anti-jailbreak technique is still there~"

Xiandu Mu Aye was very calm. After all, no matter what, she would always have to face Nangong Nayue.

In the original Dark Oath Book incident, the Dark Oath Book was eventually burned by Nangong Nayue. In order to achieve her goal, she must search for the Dark Oath Book's technique from Nayue's memory.

Of course, nothing is known about these other people, but that doesn't stop them from having the same goal.

"That's it. Perhaps only when the Witch of the Void dies can we truly be free?"

Among the five people, a female vampire spoke up to summarize, and was unanimously agreed by the others, but... that one was the Witch of the Gap, and was not so easy to deal with.

"Don't even think about it!"

A discordant voice rang out. Akatsuki Kojou stood up. Tsk tsk, what a fool. But he does have the ability. Even a half-baked one is still a True Ancestor~

However, before Akatsuki Kojou could really make his move, a slender and powerful hand reached out through space and grabbed the back of his collar.

!!!

By the time Akatsuki Kojou could react, the hand had already pulled him back. He only had time to grab Himeragi Setsuna and Yuuma before being swallowed up by the space.

"Lion's Gold!"

When Akatsuki Kojou came back to his senses, he immediately protected Himeragi Yukina and Yuma behind him and was about to summon his familiar, but...

. . .

There was silence.

Nothing happened. Xiao Gucheng raised his hand, and it felt like crows were flying across the sky... What, what was going on? Who was that person? He turned his head to look at the owner of the hand.

What I saw was Bai Ye's smiling face: "Xiao Gucheng, what did you want to do just now?"

"Well……"

With just these words, Akatsuki Kojou fell silent. Then, Himehira Setsuna's slightly reserved voice sounded beside him, "Are you... Her Majesty Jada Kukokan?"

"Don't be so nervous, Sword Wizard. I just came here to take a look and I won't do anything." This is what Jiada said. As for whether the other party believed it or not... it had nothing to do with her.

"Okay, Xiao Gucheng, there's nothing for you to do here. I'll take over from now on."

Bai Ye patted Xiao Gucheng's shoulder, indicating that they could go back.

"..., you already knew this?"

"Otherwise~"

There was nothing to hide. Bai Ye patted Xiao Kojou again and said, "Let me tell you this, everything is under control. The only difference is you. You are still too weak."

"boom--!"

At this moment, a familiar that was a combination of a mermaid and a demon bird suddenly appeared in the distance - it was "Demon Princess Cangbing", the familiar that belonged to Agurora and that Akatsuki Kojou failed to absorb.

"Oh wow, there's something exciting to watch."

The space was rippling. Bai Ye said goodbye to Xiao Gucheng and his group and led Jiada into it. "Okay, we've had enough fun. It's almost time to go back early, Ciao~"

"Senior, are we going back?"

After meeting Jiada, even the usually stubborn Himeragi Setsuna was no longer so insistent and asked Akatsuki Kojou for his opinion.

"... Let's go back first~"

Akatsuki Kojou wasn't in the mood either. They'd met time and time again, and each time he'd been dismissed as too weak, so... was he really that weak?

……

On the other side, the prison barrier was an artificial island that appeared out of thin air. And at the port connected to it, Wattola was smashed like a rag against the pile of containers.

The entire iron sheet of the container was dented, and Watola was embedded in it, covered in blood, looking quite disheveled.

"I was beaten by someone~"

Hearing the familiar voice, Wattola pulled his limbs out of the container and stumbled a few steps before looking in the direction of the voice. "How did you find time to come here..."

Wattola was only halfway through when he saw that person! The light green-haired figure walking beside Bai Ye—the "Chaos Princess" Jada Kukokan!

350. Caught in the act

After some "friendly" negotiations, Wattola was successfully removed from this round of events. This guy is a complete battle fanatic. Letting him in would definitely cause a big mess.

Meanwhile, Sentomu Aya has also taken action and headed straight for Saikai Academy...

"Naiyue, you are here indeed."

In the night sky, Xiandu Mu'aya's clothes fluttered as she landed gracefully beside Nangong Nayue - on the rooftop of Caihai Academy, which was the place where the two people had their final showdown in the Dark Oath incident ten years ago.

"You're here after all, Ah Ye."

Nangong Nayue's tone was indescribably complicated. If possible, she really didn't want to compete with the other party.

She tilted her head and gazed into the distance through the fence on the rooftop. "Aye, does it have to be like this? He told me he talked to you, but now it seems... you still haven't given up~"

Xiandu Mu Aye also understood who Na Yue was referring to as "him," and fell silent. After a long pause, she finally spoke slowly, "Yeah, it's not that easy to let go."

Then, Xiandu Mu Aye took a few steps and walked slowly to Nangong Nayue's side... She and Nayue looked at the entire island shoulder to shoulder, just like before.

……

"Hey, do you think that woman can defeat the Witch of the Gap?"

The yellow-haired man before asked the people around him without any courtesy, as if he didn't recognize his relatives. This was not in the plot. Nangong Nayue was weakened again and again, and they couldn't beat him!

"I don't think it's certain. How could we not know the level of the Witch of the Void? Which of us hasn't been captured by her?"

The female vampire among the prisoners, Kyliora Chiralti, was clearly not optimistic about this. "If you want to be captured again, go ahead. I won't accompany you anyway."

It wasn't just her, the old man behind her was the same. His name was Chiliga Kilika, an elf summoner with the Fire Spirit's spell implanted in his body, so he shouldn't be underestimated either.

But even so, he still didn't want to face Nangong Nayue - the witch of the gap!

While others were talking, he remained silent, but quietly stood up and prepared to leave.

At this time, Huangmao noticed Qilijia's movements and couldn't help but call out to him, "Hey, Qilijia! Are you scared?"

"Haha~ What else?"

Qilijia, wearing only an orange vest, looked thin and ascetic. He smiled at the group and said, "As long as I can see a glimmer of hope, I won't give up."

"besides!"

Then Kilika changed the subject, a few flames drifted around him, and his tone became stern. He had never been a kind person. "Xutra, you'd better watch your words, otherwise..."

"Huh? Old man, do you think I'm afraid?" Xutla suddenly burst out with momentum and confronted Chiliga.

"Hey, hey, now's not the time for internal strife, right?"

A man wearing a Tang suit and black-framed glasses, who looked very elegant, clapped his hands and intervened in the fight between the two.

"Huh, which one are you?"

Shutla glanced at the man, but couldn't recall anything for a moment. In his opinion, those weaklings weren't worth remembering.

Meanwhile, the flames on Qilijia's body gradually died down. "Xian Shen Ming Jia... Never mind. I'll just give you this favor."

"Anyway, don't mess with me!"
