My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Inside the container, the priestess was weak, shocked, and bewildered.

Previously, watching Ji Yunshuang manipulate objects and feeling the aura emanating from her that made her instinctively tremble and yearn for madness.

This made her wonder if she was also a descendant of God.

They might even be luckier than her, having inherited divine power. Unlike her, who inherited nothing of divine power except for a tattered scroll.

This drove her crazy, insanely jealous.

Why her?

Why is she so lucky?

Wasn't it said that only the Wu tribe were the descendants of the ancient gods left behind in the human world? Why would a woman suddenly appear out of nowhere?

But when she saw the dark object Ji Yunshuang threw out explode, blasting her carefully nurtured sacred insect into pieces, she couldn't help but wonder if her guess was wrong.

At this moment, meeting Ji Yunshuang's gaze, she couldn't help but ask the question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time, "What are you?"

After being repeatedly tortured, she had long lost her former arrogance. Her voice was weak as she spoke.

Amidst the howling wind, the crackling of burning trees, and the rumbling of tumbling rocks, her weak voice was barely audible.

But Ji Yunshuang still heard it.

A cold smile curled at the corner of her lips. "That's what I should be asking you. What are you, you monster that's neither human nor insect?"

Ji Yunshuang's words reminded the witch of her current appearance, and a surge of intense hatred flashed in her eyes.

"You ruined my plans, I'm going to kill you!"

If it weren't for her, who repeatedly sabotaged her ancient secret technique before it was completed, causing the sacred insect to escape her control and thus backfire and control her instead.

How could she have turned into such a horrible sight?

She lunged fiercely at Ji Yunshuang.

Lu Yinheng's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively tried to shield Ji Yunshuang from its attack. However, as he moved, the witch crashed into the transparent, glass-like wall and then fell heavily back down.

He breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still felt that Ji Yunshuang was in too much danger, and said, "Let me do it!"

Ji Yunshuang handed him the container containing the witch and used her mind to search for any surviving insects nearby.

These insects are small in size, but extremely fast. The bombs from earlier probably wouldn't have been able to kill them all.

When Ji Yunshuang used her telekinetic powers to search, she found that there were indeed some that had escaped. After dealing with those insects, she and Lu Yinheng retreated down the mountain together.

After General Yao and Zhu Qi tore off their clothes to plug their ears, the witch's voice lessened their shock, and the two quickly headed down the mountain.

The two hadn't walked far when another extremely powerful explosion came from above, and the ground trembled as the explosion occurred.

Both of them stared in shock at the mountain.

They were quite far from where Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng were. They could no longer see Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng. All they could see was dust billowing into the sky from where they had been.

It's clear that the thing is extremely powerful.

Zhu Qi stared wide-eyed at the billowing dust and exclaimed in surprise, "General, what was that that made that noise? How could it be so powerful?"

General Yao had no idea.

Before he could answer, there were several more loud noises coming from the mountain.

This time, the two of them kept their eyes fixed on that direction.

Besides the billowing dust, the two also saw sparks different from those of a wildfire, as well as white smoke...

General Yao recalled the strange and inexplicable phenomena that occurred when he fought against the soldiers of the Zhou Kingdom.

At the beginning, they played very well.

They only began to suffer defeats when they reached Ningzhou and clashed with Prince Rui's army.

Looking back now, it seems that we were going against the Ji family back then!

The weapons used by Prince Rui's soldiers must have been invented by her!

Unexpectedly, she had an even more powerful weapon than those other weapons.

A strange feeling welled up inside him.

They both hoped that Ji Yunshuang would defeat those evil beings and restore peace to the world, and felt resentful that such a talent had not appeared in their Great Qi.

Now, Qi is invaded by evil spirits, while Zhou has the arrival of divine warriors like the Ji family. Qi, however, foolishly opposes Zhou; Qi's fate is sealed!

"Lord Ji must possess extremely powerful weapons. She should be able to successfully eliminate those evil creatures this time, and the people of our Great Qi will be saved. But..."

The Great Qi Dynasty may also be doomed.

However, General Yao did not say these words aloud. Although he did not say them, Zhu Qi understood what he meant.

He sighed unconsciously and asked, "What are General Yao's plans next?"

General Yao sighed, "With my body in such a state, I'm already a dying man. What plans can I possibly have?"

Thinking back to last year when he set off from Qi to attack Zhou, he was full of ambition, thinking about making great achievements and helping the king expand the territory...

Unexpectedly, he ended up suffering a crushing defeat.

Now, not only has he failed to achieve great things and become famous for all time, but he has also become a sinner for all time, and he is about to lose his life.

When he thought about it, he felt that life was unpredictable.

Everything is in vain.

Zhu Qi couldn't help but feel frustrated as he thought about the medicine they had taken before.

But he has no regrets.

She also felt grateful to Ji Yunshuang.

If she hadn't taken out those poisonous pills and made them eat them, they would have been eaten by those evil creatures long ago, just like Lord Shu, leaving not even bones behind.

Now that we've managed to survive, we can't waste this hard-won time.

He said, "Even if our time is short, we still have to think about our families!"

Thinking of his family, General Yao was also filled with worry.

It was thought that the plague had only spread to a few places in Shengcheng, but unexpectedly, even places like Yumushan could not escape it.

Does that mean that besides Shengcheng, many other places have fallen, but they just don't know it?

Is Naqiong still safe?

If Ji Yunshuang were to be asked to intervene and help save the people of Qi, she would inevitably have to take control of the area.

At that time, the State of Qi...

The accusation of him being a traitor who betrayed his country and turned against his country is probably impossible to clear.

If it can't be washed off, then let's just not wash it at all!

At that moment, General Yao made a major decision in his heart, but he did not show it.

Instead, he looked at Zhu Qi beside him, trying to discern his true thoughts from his expression.

Everyone knows that Zhu Qi is a confidant of King Qi Jing and the person he trusts most.

Was he testing me?

Meeting General Yao's gaze, Zhu Qi gave a wry smile and said, "General, we've been through life and death together, do you really doubt me?"

Before General Yao could answer, he added, "Moreover, the Ji family has saved my life."

General Yao, however, did not readily believe his words. He asked, "I wonder what Lord Zhu's plans are?"

Yao Guangji didn't easily trust himself, and Zhu Qi wasn't surprised. If they were in each other's shoes, he wouldn't have opened his heart to the other so easily either.

He said, "Given the current situation, going with the flow is the wise decision."

As for what constitutes the mainstream, there's no need to elaborate; everyone understands.

Even without any evil spirits causing trouble, it would be difficult for Ji Yunshuang to conquer their Qi Kingdom, given her abilities.

What's worse, the entire state of Qi is now being invaded by evil spirits.

To follow the trend and pledge allegiance to Ji Yunshuang, to do her work, to gain her trust, and to secure a place for oneself—that would be the wise decision to go with the flow.

However, while it may be a wise move, those who do this will inevitably be condemned by the people...

General Yao remained silent for a while before saying, "Then what do you think we should do next?"

Zhu Qi said, "Fan Hongmiao and the others are following Lord Ji's subordinates, so they should be able to descend the mountain smoothly. If they are not of one mind with us, I'm afraid they will cause trouble."

General Yao felt there was no need to worry about those people.

Those few were cowards who feared death and were extremely opportunistic.

Having witnessed the terror of the evil creatures and Ji Yunshuang's power firsthand, they would surrender to her without needing to say a word.
