Mo Yu was initially shocked by the scene before him, but in a split second, he understood what he had to do. He teleported in front of the enemy and without hesitation, delivered a single strike, killing both of the Spiritualization Stage elders.

This scene filled Emperor Aoshuang with grief. He stared wide-eyed as he watched helplessly as his family's only two Spiritual Transformation-level experts vanished on the battlefield. His pride instantly vanished, replaced by immense grief and indignation. He gripped his sword tightly, the blade trembling with rage, and he could barely control the urge to rush forward and avenge them.

"Valley Master, calm down!" Saint Hanxue stopped the impulsive Emperor Aoshuang in time. Her voice was urgent and anxious. "We should... retreat first. This woman's strength is clearly beyond our ability to contend with." Saint Hanxue's face was pale, her eyes filled with worry and fear.

Lord Han Ling added solemnly, "Valley Master, the best strategy is to avoid their attack for the time being. We must not act rashly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Emperor Aoshuang gritted his teeth, his facial muscles twisted in extreme pain. Finally, he painfully gave the order to retreat: "Everyone in Aoshuang Valley, retreat!"

With this command, the army, once engaged in a fierce attack, instantly fell into chaos. Some disciples ignored the order and continued charging; others, as if awakened from a dream, began to retreat; and still others stood frozen, their eyes vacant, bewildered and at a loss as to what to do. The chaos intensified, leading to many disciples being trampled to death by their own people in the panic. A defeat is like a mountain collapsing. The nearly 200,000-man army was now like a headless fly, desperate only to escape this land of death.

Venerable Shadow witnessed all this and angrily questioned Emperor Aoshuang's actions. He also felt sorry for the precious sword. His voice was sharp and piercing: "Valley Master, how can you give up so easily?"

The Lord of Ao Shuang Valley roared angrily: "You idiot, both ancestors of our family have fallen. Who else here do you think can deal with her? If we don't retreat, Ao Shuang Valley will be completely destroyed today." His voice was full of despair and helplessness. He knew very well that the losses he had suffered were far greater than those of any other party. After all, losing two powerful people in the God Transformation Stage was an extremely heavy blow in the Northern Territory.

At the same time, Yuling Tianzun decisively ordered a retreat: "This mission has failed. If we don't leave now, our clan will truly be wiped out." With that, he mounted his unicorn and galloped away without looking back. The unicorn's snow-white mane fluttered in the wind, but it couldn't hide the panic and embarrassment of its hasty escape.

However, Su Nan stood in mid-air, overlooking everything below. She didn't rush to attack, but waited quietly until the enemy began to retreat before taking action, to avoid accidentally killing innocent people. Her eyes were clear and firm, as if everything was under her control.

As she raised her hands, circles of light suddenly appeared in the sky, mysterious and brilliant. Her eyes shone with a golden light, like brilliant stars: "The stars form a formation to spread the heavens—a net of heaven and earth!" As she chanted, circles of light appeared in the sky and rapidly expanded, forming a vast net-like barrier that enveloped all escaping enemies. The fastest, Yuling Tianzun, slammed headfirst into this invisible wall, was violently repelled, and fell heavily to the ground. The unicorn struggled for a few moments before finally collapsing to the ground, lifeless.

At this time, more and more disciples bumped into the transparent barrier, their heads bleeding, and another chaotic stampede broke out. After the situation was finally stabilized, people finally discovered this mysterious wall.

"Could it be that woman who did it?" The Shadow Demon pointed at Su Nan, his voice trembling, full of fear and confusion.

Everyone looked up at the sky, only to see Su Nan smiling and saying, "Want to leave? At least say hello! You're really not nice!" Her voice was clear and melodious, yet it struck fear into the hearts of those below. She slowly descended above the Heavenly Net, looking down at the enemies from above. Her figure resembled the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, sacred and inviolable.

As Su Nan declared, her figure loomed even more majestic in the air. The enemy troops below, faced with this sudden dragnet, momentarily fell into panic and despair. Many attempted to charge the invisible barrier, but each collision confirmed their insurmountable obstacle.

"No one can leave easily today." Although Su Nan's voice did not contain much emotional fluctuation, the power and determination contained in it made people shudder.

As the situation became clearer, some disciples began to realize that resistance was pointless and fell to their knees, crying out, "Senior, spare my life!" They understood that continued resistance would only bring more suffering. However, after Su Nan's soul returned to unity, her temperament became even more ruthless. Although she had never killed anyone herself, her fierce gaze was enough to strike fear into the hearts of her enemies.

Emperor Ao Shuang, Saintess Han Xue, and Lord Han Ling exchanged bewilderment, knowing the situation was completely out of their control. Emperor Ao Shuang felt a mixture of grief over his family's loss and helplessness at his current predicament. He knew that if he didn't find a way to break through this trap, the elite forces of Ao Shuang Valley would be annihilated.

Saint Hanxue and Lord Hanling began to think about countermeasures, trying to find a way to persuade Su Nan, or to find a way to break through this invisible cage. They understood that only through negotiation could they reduce unnecessary sacrifices.

However, the battle didn't end with these pleas for mercy. Su Nan hovered quietly in the air, her gaze cold and unwavering, as if examining the depths of each person's soul. She didn't immediately respond or offer any conditions, but simply observed quietly. Her silence was more intimidating than any words.

At this moment, Emperor Ao Shuang finally broke the silence: "Senior, please spare our innocent disciples. They are just following my orders." As soon as he finished speaking, the cries for mercy around him became more urgent, and everyone was looking forward to Su Nan's answer.

Su Nan's gaze swept across everyone's face, finally stopping at Emperor Aoshuang. She nodded slightly, indicating that she had heard his request, but her expression remained unchanged, still giving people an elusive feeling.

"You seem to care about your disciples, but I don't know if that's true or not," Su Nan's voice rang out again. "But it doesn't matter. Lying to me is a very stupid thing to do. Of course, I can also spare all of your lives."

"Sister... you can't let the tiger go back to the mountains..." Mo Yu was a little anxious when he heard Su Nan's words. He was afraid that they would be retaliated against after they left Black Feather Palace in the future.

Su Nan raised his hand to stop Mo Yu from continuing.

"What are the conditions, senior?" Venerable Shadow bowed and asked what everyone wanted to ask.

"It's very simple. The Black Feather Palace has not been in the Northern Territory for long, and its foundation is unstable. It needs some affiliated families or sects. I think your three factions can help find some?" After saying that, he examined the leaders of the three parties one by one.

This statement couldn't be more obvious, and no one was a fool, but these three were all established forces that had stood in the Northern Territory for many years. Although they were only second-rate forces, they still had a certain amount of arrogance.

Su Nan kept smiling, but secretly drew energy from the stars.

People from all three factions suddenly felt the pressure doubled, as if a mountain was pressing down on them, getting heavier with every second. Everyone knew that if they persisted any longer, these 200,000 people would be turned into meat paste.

Emperor Aoshuang thought to himself, "What kind of power is this? It's definitely beyond the Spiritualization Stage, or the early stages of Guiyi? Unlikely, it's at least the middle stage, or even the late stage. Oh my God, when did such a great god appear in the Northern Territory? Becoming her vassal wouldn't be bad!"

"I am willing to surrender on behalf of Aoshuang Valley!"
