Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Gu Chen's clothes twitched, and soon a furry head popped out from his collar.

A bright red bird squeezed out and hopped onto his shoulder.

A hint of apprehension flickered in his beautiful golden eyes.

Phoenix nestled against Gu Chen's neck and shook its feathers.

"It's the aura of the Underworld Gate... Ahh, will Master summon the Underworld Gate into the mortal world? The seal here is so fragile, it could be broken with a single touch!"

The bird's chirping was so soft that the person standing next to Gu Chen didn't hear it.

Ye Linyan's eyes widened in surprise when he saw Phoenix.

"Why does it suddenly feel a bit cold? Is the sky getting darker? Is it going to rain?" Mo Dahai felt a chill hit his face. He rubbed his arms and looked at the sky.

He then asked Ye Linyan, "Mr. Ye, if it rains, it might delay the program."

Shen Jiaojiao walked up to Mo Dahai and suddenly said, "Director Mo, since that's the case, why don't we move the program indoors later? I see everyone has found quite a few clues, so why don't we put them together and present the story completely as soon as possible?"

She then looked at Yu Chen and Qi An, the couple: "I don't think anyone would refuse this request, would they?"

The final winner of this episode is eligible to participate in a script funded by the Ye family. This film and television city is so large, and she also found out that this script was specially created for this place.

It must be a very grand production.

She had no conflict of interest with the others present, and if she could curry favor with them, she might maximize her profits...

Thinking this, Shen Jiaojiao continued, "I and the Imperial Concubine found other things here, which we can share with everyone later."

"Then why didn't you take it out when His Majesty was here?" Yu Chen asked, somewhat puzzled. "As the chief eunuch, how could you conceal information from His Majesty?"

Shen Jiaojiao's lips twitched slightly.

"I was in such a rush just now, I didn't remember..."

A bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, followed by a series of deafening claps of thunder.

The rumble of thunder sounded like a warning, heavy and filled with a certain majesty.

"Oh my god, that thunder was terrifying." Shao Hanmei was startled and clutched her chest, her face turning pale.

Seeing this, Qi An immediately agreed to Shen Jiaojiao's suggestion, "Shall we go back inside first? Director Mo, could you have someone inform Wu Zhao?"

"This weather looks extremely dangerous!"

Mo Dahai also thought it made a lot of sense, so he called on the people around him to move the machine into the house.

The sound of thunder startled viewers watching the live stream.

[Oh my god, that thunder was terrifying! I've never heard anything so loud before, it was like it was right next to my ear!]

[Oh my god, I thought someone was deliberately recording the thunder with a microphone! That was terrifying.]

[Look over there, everyone!! Oh my god, lightning struck!!]

The screen was filled with exclamation marks, looking both horrified and incredulous.

Phoenix huddled close to Gu Chen, trembling, trying to hide himself in Gu Chen's hair.

"Ahhh, it's here, it's lightning punishment—"

The nightmarish voice from three thousand years ago echoed repeatedly in Phoenix's ears.

He really didn't want to be struck by lightning again. Couldn't those guys just stay in the Yellow Springs Underworld and get reformed?

Although the Heavenly Dao is currently nowhere to be found, its laws still exist! If this lightning strikes, even if the person doesn't die, they'll be crippled!

"Master, I'm going to find Miss Wu." Lan Yao walked over anxiously, carefully avoiding the cameras.

To everyone's surprise, Gu Chen shook his head: "Don't go near there."

A smile flashed across Ye Linyan's face. "If Mr. Gu trusts her so much, why don't you come inside with us and wait?"

Mo Dahai and the other staff members had already started busily moving the tools into the house, leaving only Gu Chen standing outside without moving.

Seeing that Gu Chen had no intention of leaving, Ye Linyan's smile became even more sarcastic: "I wonder if you're testing her or torturing yourself?"

"Gu Chen, you are so hypocritical."

A hint of coldness surfaced in Ye Linyan's eyes; his expression was indifferent and ruthless. His eyes were filled with a condescending scrutiny, devoid of any emotion.

He even looked somewhat similar to the expressionless Gu Chen.

"What's it to you? You seem to really want to hear a different answer from me."

Gu Chen spoke indifferently, not even glancing at Ye Linyan.

"Fine, let's see if what you think is the same as what she does!" Ye Linyan sneered and turned to leave.

Fine rain fell, quickly wetting Gu Chen's hair and clothes.

Noticing that Phoenix was trying to crawl inside his clothes, Gu Chen raised his hand, grabbed him, and handed him to Lan Yao.

"You go in, I'll wait for her here."

Lan Yao held Phoenix, whose body was burning hot, in his hands and remained silent.

A chilling aura hung over the distant high platform, with silver lightning flashing through it.

Wu Xingyun stared at Wu Zhao without daring to breathe, his intuition telling him that she was in great danger.

A sudden wave of anxiety washed over him, and Wu Xingyun said uneasily, "Grandma, are you... are you alright...?"

It was as if someone was whispering in his ear, repeating words he couldn't understand like a spell.

All that could be seen was that Wu Zhao's face grew increasingly grim, and the flashes of light and thunder overhead became more and more frequent.

The terrifying pressure and aura almost made Wu Xingyun lose his footing.

When Wu Zhao raised his eyes, those blood-red eyes had lost all their luster.

Wu Xingyun: !

Some kind of instinct compelled him to force his legs to move, "Damn legs, move them!!"

He gritted his teeth and let out a low growl, then stumbled forward and lunged.

He clung tightly to Wu Zhao's leg.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?! Wake up! I don't want to get struck by lightning!"

Wu Xingyun's voice trembled as she was about to cry.

Fear, worry, and terror made him hold onto Wu Zhao tightly, afraid to let go.

It was as if someone in the dark was telling him that he must capture Wu Zhao and never let him go.

Otherwise, he would definitely regret it for the rest of his life.

"Waaaah, venerable ancestor of the divine sorcerer—"

"I'm not married yet, I haven't held a girl's hand, and I haven't experienced the ups and downs of life—"

"May our ancestors bless us, I, your grandson, still long to see tomorrow's sun!"

……

Surrounded by darkness, Wu Zhao could only hear the familiar roars and malicious whispers from within the Yellow Springs Yin Gate.

The smell of blood and violence filled her mind.

The tempting voices that wanted to destroy everything kept ringing in my ears...

—Kill them all, humanity deserves to die!

—Open the door and let darkness descend; you will be the master of this dark world!

Open the door... Open the door...

Open the door...

Wu Zhao repeated to herself as she pressed her hand against the ring on her finger.

The intense heat caused a certain emotion to flash across her eyes.

Then she heard a familiar voice whispering, which sounded long-winded and... very intimate.

"Ugh, oh my god, I'm so hungry... Let's calm down and go eat..."

"I heard that Moon City has a lot of specialties... They're really delicious... Oh my god, I want to eat my fill until I die, waaaaah..."

very noisy.

Too noisy.

The noise kept her from thinking about anything else.

It is Wu Xingyun.

The bloodline of the Wu family.

It's my elder brother's blood!

want……

She had to protect it... It was left to her by her brother...

It was like a ray of light shining through the darkness into her cold world. She looked down and saw a face that looked very much like her brother's, pressed against her leg, on the verge of tears.

Wu Xingyun hadn't noticed anything yet, but he could feel that the cold air around him seemed to have subsided a little.

He opened his eyes nervously, squinting through a crack.

Then, Wu Zhao's somewhat disdainful voice was heard saying, "How old are you? You have no courage at all. It's shameful!"

"Aren't you getting up yet? I'm hungry too!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Wu Xingyun suddenly couldn't hold back her tears.

She's back. It's her.

Before falling into a coma, Wu Xingyun thought to himself with relief.

He lost consciousness and fell backward.

Wu Zhao's pupils suddenly contracted: "Xingyun!"
