A dowry of one billion, and I'll marry him!

No wonder she was reborn immediately after her death at the most crucial moment of her life, allowing her to be reborn with her memories intact.

They guarded the time tunnel so desperately, just to turn back the clock by a single glance, to keep her alive.

“Okay.” Shi Yanxia’s voice became dry.

Hearing her response, Shi Yannan felt much more relaxed.

He looked up at the halo in mid-air, chuckled, and said, "Whether it's the Zhan family, the Shen family, the Shi family, or the Qin family, none of you have a chance to scheme against us."

After Shi Yannan finished speaking, he raised the sharp dagger and, without hesitation, slashed it towards his palm in mid-air.

His blood sprayed into the air, staining the halo that enveloped it red. Then Shi Yannan turned and ran into the pool. With a "plop," the sound of water could be faintly heard.

The once empty pool was now overflowing with water, and Shi Yannan jumped in.

A stream of bright red blood gushed out from the bottom of the water. Upon seeing this, Zhan Jinglin noticed the dagger lying to the side and quickly rushed forward to pick it up.

"Don't jump!" The old woman's face turned deathly pale.

She quickly scrambled over, only to find Zhan Jinglin heading to pick up the dagger. Suddenly, as if she had mutated, she charged towards Zhan Jinglin.

Just as Zhan Jinglin picked up the dagger, he sensed someone rushing towards him, so he raised the dagger and swung it back.

Shi Yanxia was faster than him. Without hesitation, she reached out, grabbed the old lady's hair, and slammed her down in mid-air.

With a "bang," the old lady was thrown to the ground, seemingly oblivious to the pain.

Her hand remained tightly gripping Zhan Jinglin's arm. A cold glint flashed in Zhan Jinglin's dark eyes as he swung the dagger in his hand toward her arm.

"Ah!" He swung his sword at the old woman's arm, severing half of her hand.

The old lady hadn't expected Zhan Jinglin to be so ruthless. She stared at her palm for a long time before she realized what was happening. She was in great pain from being thrown by Shi Yanxia, ​​and now she could barely lift her hand.

Zhan Jinglin gave her a cold glance, then quickly walked to the side of the pool with the dagger in his hand.

He stared at the hole in the pool and plunged the dagger into it.

Zhan Jinglin thought the dagger was accurately inserted into the hole, but to his surprise, the dagger did not move at all and could not be touched at all. He tried again with his other hand and found that he still could not stab it in.

"How could this happen?" Zhan Jinglin was sweating profusely.

According to the original plan, after Shi Yannan jumped in, he used the dagger stained with his blood to find the mechanism on the side of the pool and stab it down. The dagger and the mechanism would then become one, activating the mechanism at the bottom of the pool.

The dagger can no longer be used to pierce through, which means that Shi Yannan may die inside.

Zhan Jinglin gripped the dagger and tried repeatedly, but found that he couldn't reach the hole at all.

"Yan Yan." Zhan Jinglin quickly called out to Shi Yanxia.

Seeing this, Shi Yanxia ran forward quickly, but before she could get close to Zhan Jinglin, the old lady grabbed her leg with her other hand. She held onto Shi Yanxia's leg tightly and bit down hard on it.

But before his mouth could even touch Shi Yanxia's leg, Shi Yanxia kicked him away.

Her face was kicked hard by Shi Fangxia, and it seemed to be deformed.

"Are you sure this is where the dagger is inserted?" Shi Yanxia asked.

Zhan Jinglin nodded firmly and said, "Mr. Shi mentioned that he and Shen Guishi stabbed themselves with this dagger, and their blood remains in this wound."

"Therefore, tonight, on the night of the full moon, will be the time to restart this pool with his blood. But if it cannot be restarted within ten minutes, he may die inside," Zhan Jinglin said solemnly.

The old lady burst into a cruel laugh upon hearing this.

She lay on the ground, covered in wounds, and glanced at Zhan Jinglin and Shi Yanxia, ​​laughing wildly.

"You can't break this curse. Shi Yannan's life was destined to end long ago. Tonight, use his flesh and blood as a sacrifice to the heavens. After he dies inside, his blood will merge with Shen Guishi's hair."

"By then, the soul within this pool will be fully formed, and no matter how much you hurt or kill me, it will be useless."

"Everything in this pool is an array made from my flesh and blood. Once the soul within the pool is nurtured, I will be reborn, and this body will regain its youthful appearance."

"So even if you kill me now, I can still live, and then it will be your death day."

"It would have been better if you hadn't come, but unfortunately you did. You two will be the first bite of meat I take after my rebirth." The old lady laughed heartily.

As Zhan Jinglin listened to her words, he gripped the dagger and stabbed downwards again.

Unfortunately, the dagger couldn't reach the entrance, so Shi Yanxia pressed down on his hand.

She stared intently at the spigot for a long time, then murmured, "He told you that his and Shen Guishi's blood mingled in this spigot?"

"Yes, their blood was used to create the formation to prevent the formation from forming within this pool."

"Now he jumps into the pool, searching for a strand of hair from when Shen Gui returned. Once he finds it, he'll mix it with Shen Gui's blood, which will break the formation and protect the time tunnel."

"But if he dies inside, then the formation will be complete, and no one can destroy it anymore. This also means the spacetime tunnel will be destroyed, and all spacetime will be disordered."

“The realms of Yin and Yang will also be destroyed. Humans and ghosts will no longer need to be separated by these realms. Once spacetime is disrupted, everyone will probably die, and the world will be destroyed,” Zhan Jinglin said.

Shi Yanxia's heart sank as she listened.

“Shen Guishi and Shi Yannan’s blood,” she murmured.

Time passed second by second, and she and Zhan Jinglin looked at each other, able to see the anxiety and unease in each other's eyes.

"Why did Shen Guishi bring me back in order to revive me and give me another life?"

She stared at the dagger Zhan Jinglin was holding, and the two of them suddenly had a flash of inspiration, saying, "It's a bloodline ordained by heaven."

The two spoke almost simultaneously. Then Shi Yanxia reached out and grasped the upper end of the dagger, while Zhan Jinglin grasped the lower end. The two exerted force at the same time.

They gripped the sharp daggers tightly, which pierced their flesh, and blood seeped from their hands, almost staining the daggers red.

With a "plop," their blood mingled together and dripped into the pool.

The moment the blood dripped onto the incision, Zhan Jinglin and Shi Yanxia simultaneously released their grip, and the dagger fell to the ground.

With a clang, the dagger plunged straight into the entrance on the side of the pool, the entire dagger disappearing completely.

"Impossible, how could this be?" The old lady, who had been so confident and thought victory was in her grasp, was shocked to see this scene and almost jumped up from the ground.

But her injuries were so severe that she couldn't get up.

She stared intently at the dagger and said, "Shen Guishi is dead, how can this place still be broken?"
