Looking at the Blazing Demon Pill lying in the man's palm, Xi Xi pursed her lips, finding the thing glaringly conspicuous for the first time.

Using one's talent to defeat an enemy and exhaust them to death can still be considered self-defense. But digging out the Blazing Demon Core of a magical beast is almost like dismembering a person into eight pieces; it's either venting anger or seeking wealth!

Xi Xi then thought, no wonder Yun Qi was sure there was a treasure here. Could this treasure be the Blazing Demon Pill?

Unable to explain further, Xixi simply stopped trying and changed the subject, asking, "After escaping danger last night, how did you fall into their clutches again?"

Jiaojiao shook her head. "It was too dark at night. I was carrying this Blazing Demon Pill and fell asleep without realizing it. When I woke up again, it was now..."

After all, they are still children. It's perfectly normal for them to fall asleep from exhaustion after doing so much.

Looking at the man, since Jiao Jiao didn't know, then the one who had caught Jiao Jiao again must know everything!

Although she didn't know why, Xixi had a feeling that the other person would definitely tell her, and even if she didn't ask, he would be eager to tell her.

Sure enough, with just a glance, the man began to speak, "The Blazing Demon Pill has a strong aroma that is fatally alluring to magical beasts. It wasn't just me; others came too. I don't know what happened after that. I only know that when I found her, she was at the eye of a certain killing formation..."

After he finished speaking, he paused deliberately, his bright eyes looking at Xixi expectantly, as if waiting for something.

Puzzled, Xixi pressed for an answer: "And then?"

A flash of anger crossed the man's eyes, and even the corner of his eye twitched twice, but he did nothing, only shouting, "Then, I replaced her! And then, this is what happened!"

This was not the answer Xixi wanted. She always felt that beneath the other person's intense emotions, there seemed to be something hidden, something she should have known in her past life, but which she did not know... certain origins.

But one thing is certain: this person happened to arrive when they reached the killing formation. However, for some reason, he only changed the formation's core and did not show up at that time.

And not long has passed since then, yet he still had time to lay such a trap after replacing Jiao Jiao.

What exactly is he trying to achieve by setting up all this?

Puzzled, Xixi probed along with the other party's words, "According to you, not only did you not harm my daughter, but you are also our savior?"

The man raised his chin and revealed a smug smile; clearly, the words "savior" had touched her heart.

Seizing the opportunity, Xixi continued, "Can we leave now?"

A hint of surprise flashed in the man's eyes. "You're asking me? You used to come and go as you pleased. When did you become so polite?"

Xixi: "..." Was she this domineering in her past life?

Wait, what he means is that he didn't stop her from leaving; she could leave without any hindrance!

Thinking of this, she stopped arguing and turned to leave.

She remembered that she had just come in from this direction, so naturally she should go out from that direction as well.

But just as she took a step, she heard the man behind her ask in surprise, "What are you doing?"

She didn't turn her head back, and even quickened her pace.

Unfortunately, she had only taken two steps when she unexpectedly bumped into a wall, almost breaking her nose!

"Goddess? You..." He didn't even need to turn around to feel the deep doubt in his eyes.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Xixi covered her sore nose and said evasively, "I'm checking if the barrier is secure."

This time, the other party indeed did not suspect anything, but instead turned to a deep sarcasm, "Ha! How could the barrier you personally set up not be sturdy? If it weren't sturdy, it wouldn't have trapped me here for a thousand years!"

Xi Xi: "???" What the heck? This barrier was set up by her in her past life, with the purpose of trapping him here?

Wait a minute, he's been trapped here for a thousand years. Does that mean that even with his energy level, he still can't find a way out?

What about her? Her energy level is even lower than his; will she be able to get out?

In an instant, Xixi's heart turned ice-cold. She only thought about coming in to save Jiaojiao, but she never thought that she would spend the rest of her life in this prison!

Actually, there's nothing wrong with the whole family staying here together. The key is... the key is that there's also a monster that no one can beat.

She can fool them for a short time, but if it goes on for too long, won't people notice something amiss?

While she was exploring how to get out of Xixi, the formation within the canyon kept changing. Fortunately, the children came to her rescue in time, otherwise she might have really fallen into a trap!

And so, the man, while admiring her, clapped wildly, exclaiming, "As expected of the Goddess, my little tricks are truly no match for you!"

"Tsk... This is a Grand Luo Golden Immortal Formation that I set up for fifty years, and you broke it in no time!"

"Hey? Goddess, be careful! What you've just entered is the Nine-Nine Illusionary Array that I spent five hundred years setting up. It's a large array containing smaller arrays, totaling eighty-one arrays. Even I would be skinned alive if I went in. You must be careful!"

……

"Damn it... you son of a bitch!" Xixi was on the verge of tears. Through his words, she learned that in her past life, she was highly skilled in formations, so she used formations to trap this guy here. As for him, he observed the great formations in the canyon over the long years and became self-taught, freely creating large formations within small formations in the canyon.

Therefore, what she faces now is not only breaking the formation she set up a thousand years ago in her previous life, but also cracking this bunch of nonsense that this guy made up when he was bored!

The key point is that, according to this guy himself, his talent is really limited, so much so that he often messes things up halfway through.

The valley was filled with array formations, which repeatedly shrank his living space, so even he dared not venture in recklessly.

Therefore, this guy could neither produce a formation diagram nor provide any effective help; he could only stand by and cheer as a bystander.

And that's exactly what he did!

Xi Xi was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth. She thought to herself, why didn't she just kill this guy in her past life?

Leaving it in the world, isn't that just causing harm to people?

This guy, it seems, has been locked up for too long, so much so that he has an extremely strong desire to express himself, and he can talk on and on.

She later recounted how cruel she was back then, actually imprisoning him for over a thousand years.

He then spoke of his longing for her, saying that he had sent his men to look for her twice in order to see her, but fearing that she would not come, he thought of kidnapping her child.

He added that since he was trapped here, various factions in the Netherworld have been stirring up trouble, with constant conflicts of all sizes. Now, they have even colluded with the Immortal Realm, intending to invade the Immortal Realm and occupy the entire Beast World Continent.
