"Go."
From these words, Ihui Ju Xu could not feel the slightest desire for survival from the other party.
"Sister, the breach at the Yellow Springs Gate is spreading this way. We need to hurry," Ihui Guangjiu urged as she watched the growing gap of the Yellow Springs swallowing everything in its path, tugging anxiously at Ihui Ju Xu’s sleeve.
Indeed, the breach at the Yellow Springs Gate was spreading, and with their current strength, if they didn’t leave now, they might lose the chance to escape the spiritual realm forever.
"I..." A struggle flickered in Ihui Ju Xu’s eyes.
Ihui Nailuo did indeed plan to raise them as living sacrifices.
But...
Ihui Ju Xu took a deep breath.
She picked up Ihui Nailuo’s half-broken body from the ground and said hurriedly, "I apologize for my rudeness, Lord Nailuo."
After speaking, she held Ihui Nailuo close and ran towards the outside of Izumi Shrine with Ihui Guangjiu.
Ihui Nailuo looked at Ihui Ju Xu, who was clutching her tightly and running forward with gritted teeth.
It took her a while to recover from the shock of the sudden attack.
"What are you trying to do, Ju Xu?" she struggled in Ihui Ju Xu’s embrace.
"I’m just doing what I want,"
Ihui Ju Xu answered briefly.
She ran down the sanctuary pathway with Ihui Guangjiu, racing towards the shrine gates.
The shrine behind them collapsed completely, its suction sweeping up the dust in the air as if to consu everything in the spiritual realm.
After several futile attempts to struggle, Ihui Nailuo shook her head in resignation, "Doing what you want... Even though I’ve always restricted you two since you were young, and in essence, stifled you... The best outco would have been for only to disappear into Izumi Shrine."
Ihui Ju Xu did not respond to this.
Her face was a patchwork of emotions as she bit her teeth, barely stopping herself from saying anything.
As Ihui Nailuo said, the siblings had never experienced what normal children should have from a young age.
All Ihui Nailuo taught them were the various intricate etiquettes and strict demands of the Ihui Main Family.
Under such circumstances, it was only natural that Ihui Ju Xu and Ihui Guangjiu would harbor resentnt towards her.
Ihui Nailuo had never shown the slightest affection towards them.
She had always forced her own thoughts on them.
Ihui Nailuo... In the end, she had used her only good spirit to save them.
So.
Did she really never feel any affection for them?
Ihui Ju Xu shook her head.
She didn’t want to think about it, but inevitably, her thoughts kept drifting that way.
The arms holding Ihui Nailuo tightened even more.
But then—
A piercing roar echoed from a corner!
Ihui Ju Xu stopped in her tracks, her limbs cold with fear.
Under her gaze, nurous Earth Spirits erged from the ground.
Their arms twisted and pale, their bodies grotesquely enlarged.
It was like an insurmountable wall, blocking Ihui Ju Xu’s way.
"Why do Earth Spirits still exist?"
Ihui Ju Xu shielded Ihui Guangjiu and took two steps back.
A terrifying suction ca from behind...
In this mont of crisis, Ihui Nailuo explained:
"Earth Spirits are not spiteful spirits or good spirits; they are simply wandering souls that have lost consciousness. The vibrant white light cannot possibly shatter ordinary wandering souls."
These explanations were useless now.
Ihui Ju Xu tried to tap into the last remnants of good spirit within her.
However, the tiny amount she possessed was not even enough to sprinkle water, let alone obliterate these Earth Spirits.
Seeing Ihui Ju Xu’s dilemma, Ihui Nailuo simply shook her head.
There was still one way to get them out.
She could detonate her Spiritual Body, using the explosion of good spirits to clear a path for the two of them.
Perhaps then they could finally leave this place.
Honestly, Ihui Nailuo had never expected Ihui Ju Xu to co to her aid.
But in reality, that had only prolonged her life until now.
This was as far as she could go.
Ihui Nailuo took a deep breath.
A barely perceptible pale golden flow circulated above her Spiritual Body.
Then...
Boom!!!
A huge hole exploded through the obstructing Earth Spirits.
Black liquid splattered everywhere.
Ihui Ju Xu froze.
Ihui Guangjiu also froze.
The originally self-destructive Ihui Nailuo halted her actions, her eyes wide as she stared at the figure standing in front of her.
It was Beichuan Si, who should have left long ago!
Beichuan Si, with a Death Aura Hamr at the ready, smashed the two Earth Spirits in front of him to bits; his face, sared with black liquid, lifted:
"Hurry."
At his words, they snapped back to reality.
Ihui Ju Xu charged through the gap created by Beichuan Si.
More Earth Spirits ford, but before they could even howl, Beichuan Si’s hamr crushed them to dust, silencing them.
With such a path-clearer, they escaped Izumi Shrine almost unimpeded.
The ground shook more violently.
Beichuan Si, saying nothing, summoned Nishijou Kurenai and Shenzhu Shihui to infuse the half-conscious body of Ihui Nailuo with several streams of robust good spirits.
With the infusion of good spirits, Ihui Nailuo regained the ability to float in the air.
She freed herself from Ihui Ju Xu’s arms and floated behind the group, her voice full of perplexity, "Beichuan, why are you here?"
