"Roar!" Seeing a wolf's head lunging at her, Ling Yao instinctively wanted to summon the Netherworld Fire to burn it to ashes. However, when she saw another head on the other side of the body that had lost its mind, she immediately abandoned the idea and jumped to the other side.

Before he could land, a bear paw slapped him down, forcing her to use the momentum to jump again, leaping into the air.

Then another gust of air came from above. Looking up, she saw a creature with the lower body of an eagle trying to attack her.

Before she could think, Hong Yulian was instantly summoned to block the attack. The moment the opponent's eagle claw touched Hong Yulian, it seemed to be burned, roared, and then flew away quickly.

When Ling Yao finally landed, she was met with countless orcs.

"What's wrong? Peak Master Ling, aren't you going to fight back? Oh, right, I forgot that your sect's motto is not to kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Loka's eyes revealed deep disgust: "Ha, utterly hypocritical."

"That's still more aboveboard than you, a guy who's wearing someone else's skin."

Even in her predicament, Ling Yao remained sharp-tongued.

"What? Luo Jia, could it be that my Nine Netherworld Fire burned you too badly back then, damaging your face, so you don't dare to show your true face now?"

"Ling Yao, you're courting death."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jia's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

Everyone knows that while Luo Jia from Demon Realm has a very strange aesthetic sense when it comes to monsters, she is absolutely concerned about her own face.

Some even say that the reason they were willing to serve the Demon Lord back then was because of his appearance. Of course, those who dared to say this in public are all dead now.

However, during the battle with the immortal sects back then, Luo Jia's face was burned by Ling Yao's Nine Netherworld Fire, and no amount of spiritual medicine could save him. So now he can only walk in the world wearing someone else's skin.

This was a stain on Luo Jia's life, his minefield; anyone who touched it met a terrible end. But Ling Yao was determined to touch it, not just to vent her anger, but also to disrupt the other's mind.

Luo Jia is a man who relies on his brains. If we only consider strength, he is definitely the weakest of the Four Guardians. But if we consider true strength, there must be a reason why he is the leader of the Four Guardians.

At this time, Loka not only possessed powerful beast-taming skills, enabling him to command countless magical beasts, but his wisdom was also terrifying.

For example, in this case, Zhou Yue was used as a pretext, and then Wumian appeared as the mastermind. Ask yourself, after defeating a mastermind, would you still suspect that there was someone else pulling the strings behind the scenes?

Even if you're extremely suspicious and suspect there's someone else behind it all, you might let your guard down and never imagine that this unethical sixth brother is actually lurking right next to you.

Moreover, Luo Jia understands the immortal sects and Ling Yao. If she were to be given a mother who sacrificed herself to save everyone, coupled with a helpless identity, Ling Yao would definitely extend an olive branch to her.

Yes, the whole "sacrifice" and "sealing demons" thing was a lie. From the very beginning, the Zhou family was part of Luo Jia's conspiracy. Or rather, the entire Snow Rain City was a massive conspiracy.

The plan was perfect, if not for Yu Xianxian's minor flaw.

Yu Xianxian looked up at Luo Jia, who had walked up to her, and her lips twitched. No wonder no orcs came looking for her. So, he was planning to deal with her personally?

"Miss Xianxian, you not only killed my men, but you also ruined my entire plan. Shouldn't I thank you properly?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xianxian gave an awkward smile. If her back was already pressed firmly against the wall, she guaranteed that even if her buttocks were on fire, she could immediately slide fifty meters across the ground.

"Haha, no need, helping others is a joy, and we don't expect anything in return."

"Loga, she's just a little girl, don't make things difficult for her. If you have any problems, come at me."

Upon hearing Ling Yao's words, Luo Jia turned around and gave a mocking smile.

"Do you really think I'd fall for your provocation? Don't forget, Ling Yao, to me, you're just a little girl hiding behind Wu Chan."

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes, revealing an expression of anticipation for a good show.

"Heh, you want to save her, don't you? But I think you can't get rid of so many orcs in a short time. If you want to save her, you'll have to kill those poor humans. Will you do that, Ling Yao? That would be a betrayal of Wu Chan's teachings to you."

His eyes gleamed with a wicked light, as if he eagerly anticipated seeing Ling Yao unleash her killing spree. Ling Yao, frantically dodging attacks and searching for an opening, showed a struggle on her face upon hearing this, but ultimately only managed to dodge the orc's attack once more.

Seeing this, Luo Jia understood her choice. His eyes darkened, and after muttering "boring," he turned his head back to look...

Hmm, where's Yu Xianxian?

Yes, Yu Xianxian took advantage of the brief silence between those few words to hide behind some bushes.

Well, she was only five meters away from Luo Jia, and she would probably be spotted by him in the next second, but it was the best hiding spot she could find.

Yu Xianxian hadn't expected to escape anyway; she came here purely to buy herself some time to read the script.

Without wasting a single second, Yu Xianxian quickly pulled the script from her pocket and frantically flipped to the last page to find a solution.

Come on, damn script! Whether you can stop the banquet from starting depends on you.

Luo Jia had already discovered Yu Xianxian's hiding place, but he didn't rush to drag her out. Instead, he slowly walked towards the bushes with a nonchalant smile on his face.

"Fairy Fairy, why bother? Since your fate is already sealed, why resist so stubbornly? Your human desire to fight to survive is both laughable and pathetic."

"Ah, right, right, right. You demons are so noble. If you don't want to live, then die right now and show me. If you dare to die, then I'll truly admire you."

Loka: ...

No wonder he hangs out with Ling Yao, the way he talks is really something...

How annoying!

Of course, in reality, it was Yu Xianxian who was leading Ling Yao astray.

However, in a world where everyone cultivates immortality and Yu Xianxian is considered a good-for-nothing, her only strengths besides her scripts are her sharp tongue.

If Luo Jia were to casually strike Yu Xianxian right now, Yu Xianxian would have to say goodbye to her excellent eloquence.

Keluojia, however, thought that no cat would resist having a good time playing with a mouse when it was cornered, which gave Yu Xianxian more time to find a solution in the script.

After ignoring the long description of Ling Yao's situation with the orc, Yu Xianxian finally found a useful sentence: "Sigh, Comrade Ling Yao is being held back, and Yu Xianxian is completely useless. It seems this can only be a dead end."

A dead end?!

Yu Xianxian didn't believe it, but when she looked again, there was nothing left. Only two glaring words remained: "Dead End".

With a "thud," the script fell to the ground, flipping to the page with the mask. Yu Xianxian stared blankly at the golden mask, muttering, "A dead end?"
