Gao Qingxuan was the Vine Sovereign's direct disciple. She had been accepted by the Vine Sovereign since young.
Although Daoist Cloud Conquest wasn't the Vine Sovereign's direct disciple, he had received pointers from the Vine Sovereign when his cultivation was still low.
In fact, it wasn't just Daoist Cloud Conquest. Most of the active experts in the Roving Jade Heavens, even if they weren't from the Vine Sovereign's lineage, had received pointers from the Vine Sovereign.
As such, the Prime Clear descendants of the Roving Jade Heavens, regardless of whether they were from the Vine Sovereign's lineage or not, they all addressed her as "Old Ancestor".
Seeing the Vine Sovereign being trapped by the Nine Underworlds, Yan Di, Long Xingquan, and even Ling Qing's hearts sank.
"I only regret not being able to kill myself after being humiliated like this. Why would I regret dying?" The Vine Sovereign said calmly, "Just take revenge for me in the future."
Although her expression was calm, her tone was resolute, leaving no room for negotiation.
Just by looking at the old woman's calm gaze, one could tell how calm her state of mind was.
Anyone could tell that the Vine Sovereign was truly determined to die. She wasn't willing to compromise or get lucky at all.
"That's why I said that like master, like disciple." The Great Demon chuckled strangely. "But even if you can fulfill your reputation of being unyielding and kill me to avenge you, I'm afraid your disciple will regret it. How can you bear to do that?"
"Isn't it great that this matter can be resolved perfectly and everyone will be happy?"
The Vine Sovereign said coldly, "If I take a step back, I'll take a step back. If you have the chance to hold my disciple hostage and do whatever you want, I'd rather give up my life. I only hope that Qingxuan and the others can kill you and bring me down with them!"
The Devil Monarch wasn't angered by the crimson starlight. He chuckled, "Why would I? I've said it before. I don't expect you to be used by the Nine Underworlds. As long as you don't obstruct us from welcoming the Water and Earth Majesties, it'll be fine. "
"The Prime Clear lineage has many sword cultivators who are proud and unyielding. I've always admired them, and I don't expect to gain much from them."
The Vine Sovereign, who was trapped within the crimson star, snorted, "Do you think the Nine Underworlds' Evil Devils are trustworthy?"
"At the very least, I'm trustworthy." The Great Demon said to Gao Qingxuan and Daoist Cloud Conquest, "Why don't the two of you reconsider? After all, Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili aren't of the same lineage as you two. Is it worth it to sacrifice the life of this Practitioner Ziteng for them? "
As the great demon was speaking, the Vine Sovereign suddenly shouted angrily, "Don't talk nonsense. I'll give you my life. How can I be threatened by you …"
Before he could finish, his voice suddenly stopped.
Although the Vine Sovereign's figure could still be seen, her voice was blocked by the scarlet starlight.
The Great Demon chuckled strangely. "Her courage is commendable, and she is unyielding. However, her life and death is not up to her now. You guys will decide."
"Let's not talk about whether you have the ability to kill me and avenge her. Even if you can do it, is it worth it?"
"The dead can't come back to life. It's useless to kill me. It's not like you don't have a chance to save her. Why are you hesitating?"
The Devil Monarch spoke eloquently, attempting to sway Gao Qingxuan and Daoist Cloud Conquest's decision.
At the same time, the other Great Devils' attacks on the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation and the Domain of Thousand Scales never ceased.
The Nine Underworlds Devils colluded with one another. When attacking, they intentionally pressured Ling Qing, Yan Di, and Long Xingquan, allowing Gao Qingxuan and Daoist Cloud Conquest to relax.
However, they were also constantly paying attention to Gao Qingxuan and Long Xingquan's situation.
Once the two's mental state wavered, causing their performance to falter, the Great Devils wouldn't mind taking advantage of the situation.
As for the Devil Monarch in the form of a blood-red star, he was also observing Yan Zhaoge while paying attention to the five within the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation.
If Gao Qingxuan and Daoist Cloud Conquest really retreated, the remaining three wouldn't be able to maintain the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation.
However, with Yan Zhaoge's reputation, despite his low cultivation, he might still be able to maintain the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation together with Yan Di, Long Xingquan, and Ling Qing.
With the formation's assistance, even if he was a True Immortal, the Devils wouldn't dare to belittle him.
"If the two Prime Clear sword cultivators really retreated, we have to immediately attack and tear the formation apart. We won't give Yan Zhaoge any chance to salvage the situation." The Great Devils quickly communicated.
However, at that moment, Yan Zhaoge, whom they were paying attention to, suddenly moved.
"Just as you said, Her Majesty the Vine Sovereign's safety is indeed up to us." Yan Zhaoge raised his head and looked at the colossal blood-red star within the dark void, "Your words don't count either."
His hand seals changed, and he was already prepared.
As Yan Zhaoge spoke, the Domain of Thousand Scales beneath his feet suddenly underwent a transformation!
Tens of thousands of light streams that were leaping up and down on the spot like fish leaping out of the water suddenly stopped for a moment.
The streams of lights stopped moving, as if the flowing water had instantly turned into ice.
The distant radiance river was now akin to an ice river, with radiance refracting from the ice surface.
Every stream of lights solidified into a rhombus-shaped mirror.
Then, from the center of every mirror, a ray of light flowed outwards, passing through the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation and instantly shone upon the blood-red star!
Like the myriad of streams returning to their origin, the myriad of light rays converged at a single point – the blood-red star.
The Great Devil in the form of a blood-red star was startled. The myriad of light rays had already converged upon him.
The Devil Monarch didn't need to guess to know that Yan Zhaoge's target was the Vine Sovereign.
However, the mirror lights converged upon the Vine Sovereign – Li Ying's figure. As the myriad of mirror lights shone, they actually penetrated the Great Devil's body and froze the blood-red starlight surrounding the Vine Sovereign's body.
The Devil Monarch circulated his Devilish Essence and felt obstructed, as if his entire body was paralyzed.
"The Domain of Thousand Scales counters us. However, before I even stepped foot within, this Yan Zhaoge actually guided the Domain of Thousand Scales' power outwards?!" The Great Devil wanted to retreat as the situation had exceeded his expectations.
The other Devils swarmed forward in an attempt to obstruct the myriad of mirror lights.
However, Yan Zhaoge extended one of his hands forward and retracted the other. He made a posture of drawing a bow and aimed at the blood-red star.
"This was originally prepared to prevent the Female Emperor – Senior Xie from falling into your hands. Although the changes in the hostage situation exceeded my expectations, I hope it can still be put to use."
Yan Zhaoge let out a soft yell, causing the Domain of Thousand Scales beneath him to undergo another transformation.
As radiances flickered, the myriad of mirror lights started moving again, transforming into leaping scales.
As for the myriad of light rays that converged upon the blood-red star, they transformed into surging streams of light, which penetrated into the blood-red star's interior!
Thousand Scales Mirror – Star Shooting Crossbow!
The streams of light were like arrows, which penetrated through the Devil Monarch's body. While rendering him immobile, they forcefully tore apart the Devilish Domain, creating a gigantic black hole within the void.
Being guided by the streams of light, the blood-red star was brought flying backward and disappeared within the black hole.
The black hole rapidly healed, causing the other Devils to be unable to catch up to it.
The Grand Heavenly Realm Devil Lord wanted to interfere. However, this time, it was Feng Yunsheng's turn to obstruct his path. He could only watch as the blood-red star disappeared.
"What's the point? That Prime Clear sword cultivator is still in my hands … "The Devil Monarch was dizzy from Yan Zhaoge's attacks. He finally managed to stabilize his figure within the void.
In front of him, he was already in another universe, far away from the Domain of Thousand Scales.
The Devil Monarch in the form of a blood-red star was attempting to ease the numbness and weakness of his entire body. Suddenly, he was shocked.
Several auras suddenly appeared, as if they had been waiting for a long time.
