The entrance to the Dihe Secret Realm suddenly disappeared, and a golden light gate appeared. Wang Xu had already tried to enter, but he couldn't. It must be the exit.

Jiang Ming received the message immediately and rushed over with Jiang Qi.

Huo Die and the others couldn't persuade Xuan Lan, and knowing the risks involved, they had no choice but to give up and quickly leave the secret realm.

The portal led to a dark passage, which Huo Die burned with divine fire but could not illuminate.

With each step they took, a dripping sound could be heard in front of them.

Feng Yu carefully carried Shen Yao, listening to the sound of water, and followed Huo Die forward.

The dark passage was long, and everyone was in a heavy mood, remaining silent the entire way.

Jiang Ming, who was anxiously waiting at the exit of the light gate, saw Huo Die, who was leading the charge, as the first person he met.

Huo Die looked displeased. When Jiang Ming saw him, he took a few steps back. Jiang Qi, behind him, reached out and pressed her palm against his back: "What are you afraid of?"

With his sister's support, Jiang Ming became bolder: "Father-in-law, your son-in-law has been waiting here for a long time."

Huo Die's fists clenched so tightly they cracked: "Are you out of your mind?"

Feng Yu carried Shen Yao out of the portal. Blood was still seeping from the corner of Shen Yao's mouth, and blood flowed down her neck onto her clothes. Her clothes were stained with blood, and her collar was soaked through.

Seeing Shen Yao's condition in the sunlight, Feng Yu felt his heart stop beating. He hurriedly called out to Huo Die, "Father, why is she still bleeding? Why is she still bleeding!"

Huo Die hurriedly went to check, and Feng Yu, holding Shen Yao, knelt on the ground and took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her lips.

Jiang Ming subconsciously stepped forward, and what came into view was Shen Yao's pale face, her tightly closed eyes, and a glaring red.

His spiritual sense clearly saw that the spiritual root within her body was being shattered.

'How could this be...' His mind was blank for a moment.

How could this happen? He had imagined what it would be like to meet her again, that she might scold him, hit him, or even try to kill him, but he never imagined it would be like this.

Jiang Qi's gaze fell on Feng Yu; it turned out he was Shen Yao's husband.

With such short hair and a mask, he's not a celestial being, but an immortal ancestor.

It seems he had a fortuitous encounter in the Dihe Secret Realm, possessing eight pure and superior spiritual roots. Such a male immortal is qualified to be his younger brother's whetstone.

Let's look at Shen Yao's condition... Her spiritual roots are completely shattered, she's ruined.

She's Jiang Yu's mother, after all; she can't die now.

She's dead. What's the point of Jiang Ming fighting for anything? How can he become stronger?

Jiang Qi silently pondered how to prolong Shen Yao's life in this situation, and how to instigate conflict between them...

Jiang Qi probed Huo Die with her spiritual sense and hissed softly. Wasn't Shen Yao's father a Celestial Venerable? How come she couldn't see his spiritual root?

Could it be that Shen Yao's father, like Jiang Yu, is a Celestial Emperor?

Jiang Qi's mind raced, reassessing the pros and cons of every relationship...

Hu Yawu listened to the sound of dripping water and walked to the light gate. Looking out from the light gate, it was completely dark outside. Huo Die and Feng Yu were not in front of him, so they must have already gone out.

Hu Yawu poked around with the Golden Snake Sword, and finding no danger, he exited through the portal.

As soon as they stepped out of the light gate, they saw a circle of True God Sect disciples surrounding them.

He didn't know Jiang Ming, but he had fought Jiang Qi many times in the past.

Hu Yawu pointed his sword at Jiang Qi: "Why is it you guys? Where are A Yuan and Gou Yue?"

"Hey, Brother Wu." Jiang Qi sneered, "So that's why the Underworld Mountain Sect only has one Demon Ancestor. So you're here."

Hu Yawu: "Enough nonsense, where's Ning Yuan?"

Jiang Qi: "Ning Yuan, he and Gou Yue ran away."

If that's the case, then Chongcheng must have already been occupied by the True God Sect. Hu Yawu was filled with rage and flew towards Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi used her overwhelming power to intimidate Hu Yawu, who was kept ten steps away and unable to get close.

Seeing that the other party had become docile, Jiang Qi withdrew her oppressive aura: "Brother Wu, I have already become an Immortal Venerable. If you fight me now, you won't even have one life left."

"I'm here to pick up my sister-in-law; I don't want to fight with you."

After checking Shen Yao's pulse, Huo Die was injecting divine power into her to try to alleviate her vomiting of blood, but to no avail.

Huo Die sighed helplessly, "It can't be stopped. We can only wait until the spiritual root is completely shattered. Once it's shattered, the bleeding will stop."

Jiang Ming moved closer and closer, and when he was right in front of her, he knelt down, holding his breath, and whispered in a trembling voice, "Shen Yao, wake up, Shi Bao is still waiting for you."

Hearing the voice next to her, Feng Yu suddenly looked up at him and realized that Jiang Ming was also there!

Huo Die casually waved his hand, sending Jiang Ming flying aside. He then withdrew his divine power and angrily rebuked him, "What did you do to Shi Bao?"

Jiang Ming clutched his chest and stood up: "Father-in-law, don't worry, Shi Bao is my son, and I've treated him well."

Hu Yawu was stunned when he heard this. How could Shen Yao and Feng Yu's son be this immortal lord's?

Upon closer inspection of its appearance, Hu Yawu's heart skipped a beat: 'This is definitely a giant stone treasure!'

Feng Yu picked up Shen Yao, her eyes filled with anger: "Jiang Ming, my wife is innocent. Don't spread rumors and smear her reputation."

"Hmph, your wife?" Jiang Ming didn't back down, tearing open his collar to show him the contract mark: "I have already formed a contract with her."

Feng Yu handed Shen Yao to Huo Die, his body filled with a murderous aura. He walked to the front, summoned the Frost Sword, and charged towards Jiang Ming.

Good thing he came. If he hadn't come out, Jiang Ming wouldn't have had a chance to fight him. Jiang Ming summoned the Flaming Sun Blade and went to meet him head-on.

The two immortal ancestors were fighting fiercely. Jiang Qi looked at Huo Die with a smile and said, "Senior, I am Shi Bao's aunt. I should call you Uncle."

Huo Die glanced at her, what a smiling tiger: "You're mistaken, Shi Bao is not Jiang Ming's child."

Jiang Qi's expression didn't change; instead, she smiled even more enthusiastically: "I know that Shen Yao doesn't like my brother, and none of you want to acknowledge Jiang Ming, but no matter what happens in the future, I, Jiang Qi, will acknowledge Shen Yao as my sister-in-law."

Huo Die ignored her. The Jiang siblings were both quite shameless.

Feng Yu ascended to the Immortal Ancestor realm, making his sword techniques even more formidable. The Frost Sword combined with ice spiritual power, each strike exuding a bone-chilling cold.

In contrast, Jiang Ming primarily cultivates the fire elemental root. His Flaming Sun Blade blazes fiercely, with extreme heat and extreme cold clashing, making his blade intent even more intense.

Neither of them would give an inch, and they were both ruthless in their attacks.

Jiang Ming's spiritual power was domineering, and he gained the upper hand in one move, the tip of his knife slicing through Feng Yu's ear and collar.

Feng Yu's mask broke, and blood seeped from behind her ears.

He turned and launched a counterattack, unleashing several sword lights simultaneously. Jiang Ming gathered his spiritual energy to defend, and the Frost Sword slashed at his lower body. The Flaming Sun Blade instantly parried the attack. The swords clashed, and the spiritual energy rebounded. They both retreated a few steps, their hands numb from the shock.

Feng Yu's mask has been removed.

Jiang Ming saw the scars on his face and neck, and was secretly pleased. He raised an eyebrow and said gloatingly, "You're disfigured. You're really a useless piece of trash. You can't protect her, and you can't even protect yourself."

Feng Yu's killing intent intensified, and she focused all her spiritual power on speed, thrusting her swords toward Jiang Ming's face with each strike.

Jiang Ming's sword speed was not as fast as his, and he was forced to retreat repeatedly under his attack. Furious, he spoke out sarcastically through the gaps in his sword block: "A piece of trash is a piece of trash, even if you become an immortal ancestor."

"Besides your face, you're basically useless. Now that you've lost your face, what do you have to compete with me with?"

"Enough with the nonsense!" Feng Yu seized an opportunity and struck back with a full-force sword strike, then quickly ascended into the air, forming a sword array in mid-air: "Frost Sword Array, Immortal Slayer and Soul Shattering!"
