After the seal barrier outside the palanquin was lifted, Xu Sheng once again lifted the curtain of the palanquin, with a teasing smile on his face he said, "I never expected such a beautiful woman to come here, truly a blessing from the heavens! From tonight, you are my queen!"

Having said that, Xu Sheng leaned forward, reaching out his hand towards Ye Yuqiao.

Ye Yuqiao snorted coldly and suddenly an burst of Nether King's Power erupted from within her, freezing Xu Sheng and the air around him in place.

However, in just a brief moment, that frozen air began to tremble slightly.

Ye Yuqiao was startled, realizing that Xu Sheng's strength was far beyond her imagination. Immediately, she transformed into a black shadow and dashed towards the door of the sleeping chamber.

A flash of gold! The sleeping chamber's seal barrier blocked her!

After another snort of anger, Ye Yuqiao concentrated half of the Nether King's Power in her left hand and struck at the seal barrier.

Then, she suddenly felt an intense Yang Energy reinforcing the barrier, making it stronger.

With a "boom!" the Nether King's Power collided and emitted a loud noise, and the entire hall trembled violently.

In the end, not only did Ye Yuqiao fail to break the seal barrier, but she also saw it becoming increasingly sturdy with each wave of Yang Energy that was poured into it.

"Useless!" Xu Sheng's voice came from behind. He had already used a spell to dissolve the Nether King's Power that had frozen him, "The palace is filled with endless, inexhaustible Yang Energy, so no matter what, you cannot escape this place. Better to listen obediently to me. As long as I am pleased, I assure you will be showered with love and adoration in the future."

Ye Yuqiao frowned slightly, musing, "You say this place has inexhaustible Yang Energy, could it be that all the Yang Energy that flows into this place gets absorbed into this palace?"

Xu Sheng chuckled and said, "At this time, instead of thinking about this, you might as well think about how to please me."

As soon as Xu Sheng's voice fell, Ye Yuqiao suddenly felt dizzy and could not help but kneel on the ground.

"Hahaha!" Xu Sheng let out a piercing laugh, "This place has been scented with a colorless and odorless intoxicating fragrance!"

Ye Yuqiao closed her eyes, relying on the faint consciousness in her mind to use the Nether King's Power inside her to calm the intoxicating fragrance in her bloodstream, thereby regaining clarity.

However, just as she started to feel better, Ye Yuqiao felt exhausted. This intoxicating fragrance was not ordinary; besides entering the bloodstream, it also dissolved with the Yang Energy inside the body. While being enveloped by the Yang Energy, the Nether King's Power or even the Spiritual Power would create conflict and could be fatal. Therefore, Ye Yuqiao couldn't remove the intoxicating fragrance mixed within the Yang Energy.

At this moment, Xu Sheng approached her.

"Hehe!" Xu Sheng let out two mischievous chuckles.

"Boyfriend, boyfriend!" Ye Yuqiao urgently called out Chen Hao's name, already feeling the effects of the intoxicating fragrance, leaving her weak and dazed.

However, ever since she entered the palace up until now, she hadn't sensed Chen Hao's Nether King's Power.

As Xu Sheng drew nearer, Ye Yuqiao's heart began to tremble violently. She clenched her teeth, biting her lip to keep from passing out.

She was in a panic, never feeling so helpless and frightened before.

"I won't let you touch me!" Ye Yuqiao said, her voice as weak as a whispering fly.

Xu Sheng approached closer, stopping in front of her.

"Don't be afraid, I will surely treat you well in the future!" Xu Sheng said. After speaking, he squatted down, attempting to lift the helpless Ye Yuqiao into his arms.

"Ying ying ying!" At that moment, a clear sound of a sword ringing arose.

The Evil-Banishing Moon Sword suddenly flew out from Ye Yuqiao's body.

"Ah!" Watching the sword light approaching, Xu Sheng was shocked, and immediately hunched over, stumbling a few steps backward.

Looking at the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword floating in front of her, Ye Yuqiao, whose eyes were originally blurred, instantly became somewhat clearer; a tear followed, trickling down from the corner of her eye.

"This is a Yin-Yang sword!" Xu Sheng snorted with a laugh, "I can seal this sword at any time."

Having said that, Xu Sheng closed his eyes, his lips moving nonstop, reciting an incantation.

Not a moment later.

"Ying ying ying!", the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword emitted a weak sword cry. Seeing this, Ye Yuqiao noticed the light on the sword was dimming.

After taking a deep breath, Ye Yuqiao raised her left hand toward the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword, then firmly grasped the sharp blade of the sword. Bright red blood flowed along the blade to the tip and then dripped onto the floor.

She used this method to make herself more alert so that later, before Xu Sheng could touch her, she could turn the little remaining Nether King's Power in her body into Nether King's Fire and self-immolate.

She would rather die than let Xu Sheng touch her.

"Ying ying ying!" The sword cries of the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword grew deeper and deeper, as it grieved for Ye Yuqiao.

As the cries of the sword ceased, the light on the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword completely faded, and then with a clang, it dropped to the ground.

"Hmph!" Ye Yuqiao glared at Xu Sheng with a defiant expression.

"Hehe, now there's nothing to stop me, right?" Xu Sheng sneered with satisfaction, advancing towards Ye Yuqiao once again.

Ye Yuqiao closed her eyes, infusing her blood with the Nether King's Power.

Just as she was about to turn the Nether King's Power into Nether King's Fire and self-immolate, suddenly, a familiar and anxious voice echoed in her heart: "Yuqiao, where are you?"

The voice belonged to Chen Hao.

Ye Yuqiao's eyes shone with brilliance, disbelieving and thinking it was just an illusion. She focused her mind and immediately sensed the Nether King's Heart, and the vision seen by Chen Hao's left eye appeared in her mind.

At that moment, Chen Hao was at the entrance of a palace, surrounded by soldiers possessed by Yin Souls and fierce ghosts.

In an instant, tears streamed down Ye Yuqiao's face, her emotions like that of a little girl lost in the streets suddenly finding her way home.

"This isn't an illusion! My Chen Hao has come to save me!" thought Ye Yuqiao. Immediately, she gathered the Nether King's Power infused in her bloodstream into her left palm, then tore a purple rift in the air in front of her, calling out to Chen Hao in her mind: "Boyfriend, I'm here, hurry and save me!"

Having said that, Ye Yuqiao fainted, her beautiful face calm, even the slightly upturned eyeliner conveying a hint of joy. She knew Chen Hao would save her in time!

At that very moment, in front of the main hall of the palace, where Chen Hao was surrounded by soldiers, a crack suddenly appeared over his left eye, followed by Ye Yuqiao's cry for help in his mind.

"Yuqiao!" Chen Hao was desperate, a surge of intense anger rising in his heart.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly, a mass of black purple Nether King's Fire shooting out from his left eye, sending the surrounding soldiers scurrying back.

When the flames had dissipated, the crack over Chen Hao's left eye expanded, tearing through his left cheek, his body, eventually pulling him in.
