"I have read in books and seen on TV that protagonists always use their blood to activate something," Shenlian Yingyue said enthusiastically, ignoring the pain on her forehead.
"Still, you could have cut your finger instead of banging your head like that," Shenlian Yinzhu said helplessly. He took out a handkerchief, intending to wipe the blood off, but she shook her head.
"Wait, brother. Don’t wipe it yet. Since it’s already bleeding, let it bleed," she insisted, beating her chest confidently. "Besides, don’t make that expression. I’m fine. My head is quite hard and strong, just like my physical body."
Shenlian Yinzhu turned his gaze toward the giant door, and at that moment, his lips twitched uncontrollably. He noticed that the supposedly indestructible door had cracked slightly.
Wait, no...
Before either of them could react, he grabbed her into his arms and flew backward, distancing them from the door, just as it suddenly collapsed.
Shenlian Yingyue: "....."
Shenlian Yinzhu: "....."
This couldn’t be real, could it? She didn’t think her skull was powerful enough to knock down a giant door made of rock and metal.
At that moment, a strong calling surged through her, urging her to step inside. Her expression lit up with eagerness. Was this the feeling her brother had been experiencing? She only felt it now that the door was broken, which meant either the door had sealed whatever was inside from her, or she had been too weak to sense its calling before.
She shook her head. Either way, now that the door was open, she wasn’t going to waste another second. But just as she prepared to step forward, they suddenly turned around.
"You ran out of the prison, sister. Why are you so naughty?" Run Jue’s voice carried amusement as he tilted his head. Despite their obvious hostility, he appeared relaxed. The terrifying presence from earlier had vanished, replaced by an innocent, sunny demeanor.
At this moment, he stood there with a helpless smile, as if Shenlian Yingyue were nothing more than a spoiled daughter who liked to run away from home.
Shenlian Yingyue didn’t want to waste time on him. He wanted to drag her back to the prison and wait for Run Chu to torment her. She wasn’t foolish enough to go back willingly. A black fan, carved with golden flowers and silver vines resembling snakes, appeared in her hand, Xuan.
"Yue’er, get inside first. I’ll deal with him," Shenlian Yinzhu instructed. In his hand, a silver-golden silk began to glow with mesmerizing light. The moment it appeared, the surroundings brightened.
The silk shimmered with a blend of silver and gold, glowing softly like captured moonlight. It floated weightlessly, drifting like a cloud, yet possessed unbreakable strength, stronger than steel, yet light as air. A fabric of pure magic, both ethereal and indestructible. It could split open mountains and seas.
She watched as the silver-golden silk floated around Shenlian Yinzhu as if it were alive.
This silver-golden silk was one of the Nine-Pointed Artifacts of Celestial Spirit, which he had obtained from the Abyssal Throne Ruins when they were separated. He had found his own opportunity.
She had seen him use this silk in battles against powerful demonic creatures before, and its power was absolutely astonishing.
Since he was using it now, it meant he wanted to end the battle quickly.
"Brother, be careful. I’ll wait for you inside," she said, then rushed forward.
Run Jue, who attempted to chase after her, was stopped by Shenlian Yinzhu.
"Your opponent is me," he stated firmly.
Run Jue didn’t react to Shenlian Yingyue calling Shenlian Yinzhu "brother." He simply assumed Shenlian Yinzhu was her contracted beast, summoned from her contracted space.
"You look strong, but do you really think you can stop me?" Run Jue’s expression was unreadable. He couldn’t see Shenlian Yinzhu’s true form, nor could he sense his cultivation level, but it didn’t matter.
The two stood silently, facing each other. In an instant, both rushed forward, unleashing their skills as they clashed in fierce combat.
The silver-golden silk moved with incredible speed, each strike cutting through the air like a blade. Every time it struck the walls or ceiling, a loud impact echoed, shaking the entire area.
