Mu Yao slowly closed her eyes.
Right before she closed her eyes, she seemed to see a blurry figure walking toward her.<
“Xiaohuo, did you come to save me?”
When the general of the black shadow army saw that the man was daring enough to step on the wooden planks, he ordered. “Brothers, if we knock down the wooden planks, we can throw this man into the sea of lava!”
“You’re the best, General! This way, we won’t be afraid of not being able to complete our mission!” a soldier gladly said.
“Thank you for your advice, General. I really want to be reincarnated even if I become a pig. I want to go back and see my poor wife and children!” another piped up.
“Yes, thank you, General. Brothers, for the sake of reincarnation and not suffering the pain of the flames forever, let’s charge!” one of the black shadows encouraged his compatriots. “Charge!”
The large group of black shadows that had initially been rushing toward Mu Yao all left her and rushed in another direction.
The moment the man saw Mu Yao fall to the ground with her eyes closed, he could no longer suppress the rage in his heart. Then, his eyes turned even redder and the resistance force around him grew stronger!
He looked at the woman who had fallen to the ground. Her fair body was drenched in crimson-red blood and she clearly could not care about anything anymore!
Scenes of his first meeting with the woman appeared in his mind. Then, they were out on the prairie, where she pulled him to escape from the burning flames. In the cave, she broke the chains on his limbs. Then, he thought of the times when the woman fell into his arms, looking angry and at a loss.
“All of you! How dare you hurt one of my people? All of you deserve to die!”
He did not feel any fear when he stepped on the first wooden plank. Just as he was about to lose his balance, he raised his other foot and stepped on the next wooden plank in front of him.
At the same time, a large group of black shadows appeared in his line of sight.
However, to everyone’s surprise, the black shadows could not even get half a meter away from him!
The man’s body seemed to have formed an invisible protective shield around him, which was the so-called resistance. Following that, the flaming stars in the lava beneath his feet seemed to be sucked into this invisible shield, causing the entire shield to double in size!
At that moment, the large group of black figures began to panic as they were forced to retreat by the pressure! Now, they were even running around aimlessly! Whether it was an attack from the top or the bottom, they just couldn’t get close to the man.
“General! This man’s resistance has gotten even stronger!” a soldier cried out for help.
“What should we do? General, come up with an idea. If the Heavenly God finds out that we didn’t execute them, we’ll be the ones who will have to die!
Just what is the background of this man? He clearly doesn’t have any spiritual power to speak of, yet he actually has such a strong resistance. My soul feels so oppressed once I get close to him!”
“It’s over, it’s over. This man has reached the last wooden plank!
This is the first time I’ve seen someone who dares to walk across the wooden planks like this. I’ve been in this mystical realm for so long, but no one has dared to walk across this lava stream!” the commander lamented .
It seemed as though even the gods were on the man’s side, and he actually managed to walk steadily over the magma that was flowing higher and higher.
Seeing the situation, the commander of the shadows shouted, “Everyone, retreat!”
As soon as he said so, the entire group of black shadows panicked and retreated!
“We’re done for. Even the general said so. We’re going to be executed by the Heavenly God! I really don’t want to die! We’ve already died once in vain. For the sake of Tianlong, we gave up everything. Are we going to die again this time? Besides, this is such a dishonorable way to die! Once we die, we won’t be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation. We will all become food for that Heavenly God!” a soldier wailed out.
“That’s right! What should we do? The Heavenly God should be resting right now. If he wakes up and realizes that we’re not doing our job well, we will meet sure death! I really don’t want to die again. Did you see what was written on the tombstone? It said that we lost the war because of the Emperor’s daughter! However, I don’t believe him at all! I was a spy sent to Shuiguo and I heard that the general of Shuiguo had interacted with the sorcerer of Tianlong! Without any evidence, I suddenly died from poisoning the next day! Now that I’m dead, I’m no longer afraid of anything. This secret has been kept in my heart for a long time!”
The soldier continued, “I don’t care even if I were to be reduced to ashes again. I just have to reveal this secret! The sorcerer threw us here to be the Heavenly God’s lackeys. It’s obvious that the sorcerer is definitely not a good person! Think about it, everyone. We could have entered the cycle of reincarnation, but we were taken here by the sorcerer to serve the Heavenly God. How many of our brothers’ souls have already been sucked into the Heavenly God and can no longer enter the cycle of reincarnation? Tell me!”
“What?! I always thought that we were defeated because of the the Emperor’s daughter! I always thought that we died in glory! I didn’t think that we were killed on purpose!” Someone expressed their disbelief.
“What! That’s impossible! General, tell us if it’s true!” another demanded.
At the same time, a group of dead souls watched the devilish man walk to the opposite shore.
The man watched as the woman’s breathing gradually slowed down. He carefully picked her up and shouted, “All of you! All of you will die with her!”
As the man gently picked Mu Yao up, her pendant fell to the side of her waist due to her center of gravity being lowered. Amidst the flames, there was a faint green glow.
“General, this man’s resistance is increasing again! We’re doomed!”
“General!” The shadows jumped up and down uneasily and began to struggle, calling out to their leader.
However, the general could not hear any sound at all. The only thing that caught his eye was a shimmering pendant. Instantly, his entire soul trembled! Then, he shouted loudly, “The daughter of the Emperor! Your Highness!”
That shocked the shadows that were running around, and they immediately stopped moving. They then approached the general. “General, what did you say? The emperor’s daughter? The princess? Where is she?”
The large group of black shadows turned to look at the woman covered in blood.
Because they had been busy fighting earlier, no one had noticed the jade pendant on the woman’s waist. Now that the woman was being carried by the man and the jade pendant hung down from her waist, it was clear as day.
“Isn’t that the jade pendant that the Emperor used to wear every day?” someone asked.
“Yes, that’s absolutely right. Every time before the battle, the Emperor would always come to boost our morale. He would wear this jade pendant every time. Just before our last battle, the Emperor wore it to our camp to boost our morale too! I can’t be wrong. This is definitely the Emperor’s jade pendant! The Emperor’s jade pendant will only be passed down to his children, so this is really…”
“What? In other words, this is really Her Highness! Did we really hurt Her Highness so badly just now?!” a soldier cried out.
The general of the black shadow army immediately fell to the ground, shouting, “Your Highness, I’ve let you down! I didn’t recognize you at first glance and even hurt you!”
