Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

"Ahhh, don't come any closer!"

The wildly growing tree roots surged out from beneath the ground and swept towards Shen Jiaojiao and the other two.

A crimson figure flashed past.

Wu Zhao pulled Wu Xingyun and Zhao Feng aside and slipped a talisman to Wu Xingyun.

"Stand here and don't move!"

"No matter what happens later, you must not leave!"

The somewhat out-of-control Peach Fairy used tree roots to tightly bind the three of them. Wu Zhao didn't have time to say much and could only give a few simple instructions.

She leaped swiftly to Tao Xian's side.

Her delicate face was now covered in blood and tears, the whites of her eyes had turned completely black, and her blood-red pupils turned towards her with a cold glint in their eyes.

"Calm down, do you want to become an evil spirit?" Wu Zhao remained unmoved, his left hand, adorned with a ring, gripping Tao Xian's wrist tightly.

Blood and tears streamed down Tao Xian's face, the cold blood dripping onto Wu Zhao's hands.

"Help, help me..." Luo Jing struggled in terror, "I, I don't want to die!"

When Shen Jiaojiao's yin energy was bound by the tree roots, it began to frantically absorb the yin energy from the tree roots. Although she appeared to be bound by the tree roots, she was not actually in any danger to her life.

The yin energy on her body is protecting her!

Wu Zhao then looked at Shen Zhuo, who was completely enveloped by tree roots. He seemed to be lacking oxygen and had fallen into a coma.

"Die! Die! I'll make you all die!"

Even when stopped, Tao Xian's expression remained ferocious.

She stared intently at Wu Zhao, "My benefactor is dead, I must avenge him..."

These three people all carried the blood of her benefactor; she was going to kill them!

"Ahhh, no—" Luo Jing felt the air getting thinner and thinner, and her face turned red as she felt suffocated.

Shen Jiaojiao bit her lip, and a small black portrait was faintly visible in the hand behind her back.

An eerie aura instantly enveloped her.

Wu Zhao raised his hand: "Heaven and earth are boundless, the universe commands, bind!"

A golden ray of light enveloped Tao Xian, and the yin energy surrounding her began to dissipate.

"Do you know how long you've been trapped here?" Wu Zhao asked abruptly. "Peach Fairy, your benefactor is a human."

Humanity……?

Tao Xian was stunned.

The slowly tightening tree roots also stopped.

Seeing that she seemed to have regained some of her senses, Wu Zhao continued, "Time stands still in the mountains, and spirits live long lives. Your benefactor... is long gone from this world."

My benefactor...is long gone?

As if she had lost all her strength, Tao Xian's head drooped down.

Wu Zhao released her hand and patted the massive tree root.

The tree roots shook, releasing the three people who were entangled in them.

Although Shen Zhuo was half-dead, he was still breathing. As soon as Luo Jing landed on the ground, he took several steps back in fear.

He watched Tao Xian warily.

Shen Jiaojiao, however, looked at Wu Zhao with a pale face: "Sister, sister... how could you be with this harmful thing, and... how could you make her listen to you?"

"What does it have to do with you? Anyway, I don't really want to save you." If it weren't for not wanting Tao Xian to be tainted by blood, she wouldn't care about the life or death of Shen Jiaojiao and the others.

Tao Xian raised her head and looked at the unconscious Shen Zhuo: "He carries the blood of his benefactor..."

Wu Zhao gave Shen Zhuo a disgusted look. "He deserved it, but you can't make a mistake because of that."

Once she is tainted with blood, she will no longer be able to maintain this paradise.

They might even be punished by Heaven for harming humans...

After all, that bastard is always exceptionally tolerant of humans!

Thinking of something, Wu Zhao gritted his teeth.

“The descendant of your benefactor that he harmed is no longer your benefactor,” Wu Zhao explained. “Your benefactor got married and had children, but died of illness not long afterward.”

"She's a very kind girl, and she hasn't forgotten you. But she can no longer come to see you, do you understand?"

She was just about to tell Tao Xian about her benefactor when Shen Jiaojiao and the other two barged in without her knowledge.

"Do you want to see her again?" Wu Zhao asked.

Tao Xian's face still had traces of blood that hadn't dried. She stared blankly at Wu Zhao: "Can I?"

Wu Zhao raised her hand and wiped the blood off Tao Xian's face, then she walked to Shen Zhuo's side, who was already unconscious.

A faint wisp of yin energy emanated from Shen Zhuo's body, and Wu Zhao raised his hand to grasp it.

Then she bit her lip until it bled, and with her bloodied lips, she gently kissed the ruby ​​on her ring.

"Heaven's will is above, with my blood, I borrow the power of Heaven's will, and manifest!"

The scorching light grew increasingly blinding, slowly enveloping them.

Then, Wu Zhao and Tao Xian both disappeared from the spot.

Shen Jiaojiao's gaze sharpened, and she put away the small portrait on her back.

"Brother Luo, could you please help me get my brother up? Let's go meet up with Mr. Wu and the others, shall we?"

Luo Jing was still shocked by Wu Zhao's sudden disappearance, but she felt slightly relieved when she saw that Wu Zhao had taken Tao Xian away.

He hoisted the unconscious Shen Zhuo onto his shoulder and said, "Let's get out of here quickly while that monster is away."

As Wu Xingyun watched Wu Zhao disappear, his heart tightened.

But then she remembered her words of advice and held down the somewhat panicked Zhao Feng: "Don't worry, she must have her own reasons."

"Then, then we...?" Zhao Feng couldn't help but ask as he saw Shen Jiaojiao and the others approaching, "Should we stay away from them?"

I quite agree with what he said; the black aura emanating from these three people could be seen from a great distance.

Wu Xingyun nodded repeatedly: "We should stay away from it, it's very unlucky."

Shen Jiaojiao and Luo Jing, who had already walked close enough to clearly hear their conversation, were speechless.

……

Wu Zhao, Wu Xingyun, and their photographer Zhao Feng have been missing for three days.

Over the past three days, Mo Dahai has gone from being anxious and uneasy at the beginning to being desperate and dazed now. He has already decided where he wants to be buried.

Because the day after Wu Zhao and the others disappeared, Shen Jiaojiao and her siblings, as well as Luo Jing, also disappeared.

Gu Chen's aura grew increasingly oppressive, but he simply waited quietly outside the tent each day. Only after Zi Yao's repeated pleas would he enter the tent to rest for a while.

It rained today, a rare occurrence in the mountains, and Gu Chen sat silently in his wheelchair.

The cold raindrops pelted his face and body, but he showed no intention of seeking shelter.

"Patriarch..." Zi Yao paced anxiously behind him like an ant on a hot pan, because he knew that his patriarch had not slept for three whole days!

His physical condition simply doesn't allow him to get soaked in the rain like this!

They contacted the Huo and Gu families, but Huo Tingchen was held up and Gu Jiaxi was on a secret mission.

No one could persuade Gu Chen!

His long, pale fingers tapped lightly on the armrests of the wheelchair, his gaze deep and filled with a barely perceptible sadness.

Suddenly, as if sensing something.

Gu Chen suddenly felt his blood boil, and a golden light flashed in his eyes for a moment.

Although it was very faint, he felt Wu Zhao's call!

"Zi Yao!"

He called out softly, his hoarse voice sounding especially cold in the rain.

"Push me into the mountains!"

I will never let you out of my sight again.

Wait for me, Zhao Zhao!
