Xiaosuisui silently rolled her eyes at Ji Youzhi’s excitent.
If she were like her Seventh Uncle, who couldn’t read minds, she would probably believe this little fox’s nonsense and jump straight into that vortex.
"Of course, of course, trust ! Jump in, let that Celestial Thunder strike you a couple of tis, and you’ll ascend to the ranks of immortals, achieving eternal life."
Inside the Soul Nurturing Talisman, the little fox eagerly replied to Ji Youzhi, its voice laced with a beguiling charm.
This was sothing Ji Youzhi, who had only trained in martial arts, naturally couldn’t detect.
Xiaosuisui, however, had previously learned Illusion Technique with Ji Youyuan and had just experienced the little fox’s Illusion Array. So now, she could indeed discern the beguiling intent in the little fox’s words.
"Can we really achieve immortality? Then I’ll go in right now."
Ji Youzhi whispered, his eyes gleaming with excitent, urging Blackie, "Blackie, quick, into that vortex!"
Blackie, also ensnared by the little fox’s words, shared Ji Youzhi’s desire to jump into the vortex. Hearing Ji Youzhi’s command, it actually sped up and charged towards the vortex.
The mont they rushed into the vortex, Xiaosuisui’s anxious shout reached their ears, "Don’t listen to its bewitching words!"
However, it was too late. Blackie, Ji Youzhi, and Xiaobai had all entered the vortex.
Xiaosuisui turned pale with fright. Annoyed, she ignited a ball of fire around the periphery of the Soul Nurturing Talisman.
As the flas flared, the little fox shrieked and wailed, "OUCH, it hurts! It’s killing this old lady! You little brat, why are you burning again?"
Xiaosuisui didn’t utter a sound this ti, allowing the flas to continue scorching the little fox within the Soul Nurturing Talisman.
She then imdiately jumped into the vortex herself.
"Hey, hey, hey... What’s wrong with you, little brat? Didn’t you already know I was trying to bewitch you? Why are you jumping in yourself?"
The little fox wailed within the Soul Nurturing Talisman. It had never imagined that this young-looking little brat, who should have been ntally immature, could see through its bewitchnt and, in a reverse move, place it on a roasting rack.
Being roasted was one thing, but she actually jumped into the vortex herself!
"You little brat, jump if you want to jump, but why did you have to set on fire to roast? If you die in the Immortal-Trapping Array, then wouldn’t I be burned alive by this fire?"
At this very mont, the little fox, while screaming in pain, was also loudly praying to the heavens, begging them to ensure Xiaosuisui made it out alive!
Xiaosuisui, having entered the vortex, naturally couldn’t hear it. After jumping in, she saw Ji Youzhi’s face, contorted in utter terror.
Xiaosuisui reached out her hand to him, shouting, "Seventh Uncle! I’ll take you out!"
However, Ji Youzhi seed unable to hear her, his eyes wide with terror, staring at the space above their heads!
Xiaosuisui imdiately looked up, following his gaze towards the sky.
In the sky, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Amidst it, scenes unfolded one by one like a painted scroll, and within that scroll, a person appeared.
To be precise, it was a woman. This woman was clad in red, wore a Dragon Crown, and held an Emperor’s sword.
Surrounding her were more than ten people. Those encircling her were dressed in black, holding skulls, their faces emaciated beyond recognition.
Xiaosuisui murmured, "Why are these people so thin? Why are they all holding skulls?" even as she heard the figures in the painted scroll begin to speak.
The first to speak was the woman in red. She gripped the Emperor’s sword, pointed it towards the nine highest heavens, and shouted fiercely, "You Evil Cultivators, today you have besieged Us here. We shall follow Celestial Destiny and will surely execute all of you beneath Our Emperor’s sword!"
Xiaosuisui blinked, puzzled. "Who is this person?"
"Ancestor Zhou!" replied Ji Youzhi. His eyes were wide, an initial expression of terror quickly morphing into sheer astonishnt as he spoke.
"Seventh Uncle knows her?" Xiaosuisui was very surprised. Her Seventh Uncle actually knew this person!
"I’m fairly certain!"
"Huh?"
Xiaosuisui didn’t understand. If he knew her, he knew her; if not, then not. What did he an by ’fairly certain’?
"Legend says that three thousand years ago, the world teed with nurous Sorcerers, and various schools and factions erged endlessly. So used their Techniques to save the common folk, but others used their Techniques to bring ruin upon the populace. Thus, the Emperor of that era, Ancestor Zhou, decreed a world-wide hunt to exterminate Evil Sorcerers."
