The cheat system is useless, but I have the strongest living dad.

"Hehehehe..." The Blood Demon's face was turned towards Shen Yao, and blood tears flowed from its eyes again.

It sobbed, sounding extremely aggrieved and vicious, "Master, I'm right here. Come and kill me, hehehehehe..."

Shen Yao knew she couldn't kill it; even her father couldn't kill it. What could she do?

Shen Yao stared at its blood tears, watching the bloodworms crawl downwards.

The Blood Demon knelt, trying to crawl forward, but the iron chains bound it tightly, preventing it from moving an inch: "What? Master, are you reluctant to let me go?"

Shen Yao clenched her fists and shouted with all her might, "Slay the God!"

'call out.'

The God-Slaying Blade was swiftly drawn this time.

When the Blood Demon saw the Godslayer, even more tears of blood flowed.

The guardian spirit transformed into a sheath spirit and asked Shen Yao, "Think carefully. You are not yet a god. If you slay a god and draw blood, you will have to pay the price."

Shen Yao pointed at the Blood Demon: "Slay the God, kill!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh!" In the blink of an eye, Zhan Shen had already made a round trip and returned the sword sheath to his storage ring.

The Blood Demon turned into a pool of blood, from which blood worms continuously gushed forth.

Huo Die then set off another divine fire, burning the bloodworms in the iron cage to ashes.

Shen Yao felt a throbbing pain in her entire spiritual root, and a metallic sweetness welled up in her throat.

Feng Yuqi's seal signaled a warning, and a needle-like pain shot through his collarbone: "Yanzhou, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, let's go." She squeezed out a few words through her teeth, turned around and walked towards the steps of the fifth room.

With each step she took, she felt her spiritual root break an inch. When she reached the passage, she couldn't hold back any longer, covered her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Her vision went black, and she fainted.

“Yan… Yanzhou…” Feng Yu grabbed her and saw the bloodstains all over her body and the blood constantly flowing from the corner of her lips. He was so frightened that he didn’t know what to do: “Father! What happened to her? What happened to her!”

Huo Die was already checking: "Don't panic, I'm watching."

Huo Die's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, forming a "川" (river) shape.

Hu Yawu was also observing with his spiritual sense activated. Before Huo Die could say anything, Hu Yawu subconsciously said, "It's over."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yu forced herself to calm down and released her spiritual sense to examine the situation carefully.

Upon seeing this, his heart broke. All six spiritual roots within Shen Yao's body had been broken into pieces and were slowly crumbling bit by bit.

With all her spiritual roots destroyed, it meant her cultivation was completely ruined and her days were numbered.

Watching his spiritual root crumble, he wished he could take its place.

He used a healing spell on her, and the wood elemental energy entered her body, but like air leaking out, it escaped from the back of her neck.

Huo Die pressed his hand down: "It's no use, let's go out first."

Feng Yu wanted to try again, but Huo Die snatched his daughter from his arms and carried her away.

Hu Yawu patted his shoulder: "Let's go, listen to your father-in-law."

Huo walked very fast, and by the time they caught up, they had already reached the entrance of the second room.

Feng Yu caught up with Huo Die, took Shen Yao from his arms, held her in her arms, and wiped the blood off her face.

But blood kept flowing from the corner of her slightly open mouth.

Feng Yu felt like her soul was about to fly away: "Father, why is she bleeding so much?"

Huo Die's expression was also very unpleasant: "Let's talk outside."

The hidden door at the entrance to the passage from room one to room two had been opened, and the Xuanlan Piercing Peak Beast was waiting at the door.

Lan Jia's deep voice rang out: "Congratulations, you have successfully stormed the palace."

Hu Yawu: "The Blood Demon is dead, so why is there even more black energy in your eyes?"

Lan Jia gave an irrelevant answer: "The secret realm is about to collapse."

It looked at the unconscious Shen Yao, its beastly face expressionless: "I can only help you this once."

It stretched its neck, and five golden runes flew out from its neck. The five runes merged in the air and combined into a brown bead, which flew into Shen Yao's right shoulder.

Lan Jia: "This spiritual seed will take root in her body and awaken her earth spiritual root, but her other spiritual roots are shattered. Whether she can survive depends on fate."

Feng Yu: "She is my wife, and I thank you on her behalf."

Another ring of golden patterns flew out from Lan Jia's neck, forming a golden light gate in the middle of the room: "You should leave quickly, the secret realm is about to collapse."

Hu Yawu took out the Golden Snake Sword: "We'll help you cut the chains first."

Lan Jia: "I can't leave. I have to use my blood and bones to purify this land. You can go, don't worry about me."

Lan Jia was already prepared to sacrifice itself, and no matter how they tried to persuade it, it wouldn't leave. They could only solemnly bid it farewell and enter the portal.

……

After Chongcheng was captured, the Demon Ancestor who guarded the Mingshan Sect was killed in battle. Ning Yuan and Gou Yue led the remaining disciples and fled to the Demon Clan.

Chongcheng quickly put the Square and Round Formation into use, and the Mingshan Sect was converted into a branch of the True God Sect.

Chongcheng is geographically very important, and Jiang Qi is now in charge of the branch clan, residing in Meitang.

She renamed the original Meitang to Leishentang.

She also renamed the Demon Ancestor's Hall of Death to the Hall of Wind Gods.

But Jiang Ming didn't stay at Fengshen Hall; he and Shi Bao moved into Fenghong Garden.

Returning to his old haunts, Shi Bao was overjoyed. The fair-skinned little boy dashed up the steps, shouting, "Daddy, hurry up! Maple Red Garden is just ahead!"

Shi Bao was so excited that as soon as he entered the courtyard, he grabbed Jiang Ming and shared his memories with him: "Daddy, look how red this tree is! Mother loves this tree the most."

Jiang Ming's eyes softened: "Yes, red."

Shi Bao: "Daddy, look at this swing. Mommy loves to hold me and swing on it the most."

Jiang Ming picked up Shi Bao and sat on the swing: "Daddy will hold you and swing for a while too."

After only a few swings, Shi Bao couldn't sit still anymore. He rolled off and ran into the yard: "Daddy, Mommy used to grill meat for me here. It's right here. She grilled it here with such a big iron rack."

After gesturing to the frame, Shi Bao pointed to the side hall: "Father, there is a fire spirit stone bed in the side hall. Mother likes that stone bed the most."

While saying he was talking about the side hall, he pulled Jiang Ming and ran to the room on the second floor: "Daddy, this is my children's room. Mommy made me a lot of toys."

Shi Bao rummaged through the cabinets in the room for a while, scattering toys all over the floor: "Daddy, look, these were all made for me by Mommy."

Jiang Ming looked through them and found that many of the small toys were oddly shaped pieces, just like the ones he had seen in Shen Yao's stone beads.

Shi Bao sat down on the ground, dejectedly propping his face up with his hand: "Oh, Daddy, I really miss Mommy so much. Now that we're back here, will Mommy be coming back soon?"

Jiang Ming stroked his head: "Don't worry, Shi Bao, your mother should be back soon."

Two months ago, golden light soared into the sky above the Dihe Secret Realm, accompanied by thunder and lightning, and strange birds and beasts flocked to the secret realm.

Such anomalies could mean either the opening of a secret realm or the birth of a divine treasure.

Currently, only Shen Yao and her group are in the Dihe Secret Realm. The strange phenomenon is occurring in the sky above the Dihe Secret Realm, not in Lishui Ridge. Jiang Ming guesses that they are likely to return from the entrance.

Originally intending to stay in Yongcheng for convenient travel between the two places, he decisively returned to the True God Sect and brought Shi Bao to Chongcheng.

He had arranged everything and was just waiting for Shen Yao to leave the secret realm.

Jiang Ming stood by the window, gazing in the direction of the Dihe Secret Realm: She should... be back soon...
