Watching the Jiao being tormented by the Purgatory Fire, the other two Primordial Demons approached it, infusing it with massive amounts of icy Spiritual Power to freeze the Purgatory Fire on its body.

With the infusion of two strong streams of Spiritual Power, the Jiao soon stopped rolling in the air, as the pain of the Purgatory Fire's burn had been greatly alleviated.

Seizing the moment while the three Primordial Demons were healing, the firebird that Ye Yuqiao had transformed into circled around them at high speed, its blood burning incessantly to release the Purgatory Fire.

In an instant, a huge crimson Fireball gradually formed, encompassing the three Primordial Demons of the Netherworld within it.

However, just as the Fireball took shape, Ye Yuqiao, due to extreme weakness, suddenly stopped circling. Her firebird form faced the night sky and fell towards the snow-covered forest below.

With consecutive "bang" sounds, the three Primordial Demons of the Netherworld burst out of the Fireball surrounding them. The moment they emerged, several spots on their bodies were ignited by the Purgatory Fire.

At this very moment, the firebird descending mid-air shed its fierce flames and radiance, shrinking back into Ye Yuqiao.

Her eyes were tightly closed, and she had already fainted.

Seeing this, the Primordial Demon named Yu glided toward Ye Yuqiao, enduring the pain of the Purgatory Fire burning on its body.

Just as Yu was nearing Ye Yuqiao, a pale blue Spiritual Power suddenly surged up from beneath her, racing towards Yu at high speed.

Yu let out a startled neigh, hastily dodging the Spiritual Power. Its gaze moved past Ye Yuqiao, and it saw a white giant beast approaching from below.

This white giant beast was none other than Xiao Bai.

Just now, when it saw Zhao Chong heavily injured and falling from the sky, it immediately rushed over from the mountains to the northwest. In the end, it caught Zhao Chong before he hit the ground and injected Spiritual Power into him for healing.

Then, upon seeing Ye Yuqiao faint and fall, with Yu launching an attack on her, it immediately leaped into the air to rescue her.

After a surge of Spiritual Power temporarily repelled Yu, Xiao Bai turned its head and caught the descending Ye Yuqiao into its left ear.

"Aow!" Xiao Bai let out an angry roar at Yu.

At this time, the other two Primordial Demons, Ao and Jiao, arrived at Yu's left and right. Like Yu, both these Primordial Demons had multiple spots burning from the Purgatory Fire.

Compared to the three Primordial Demons, Xiao Bai's body was many times smaller. Therefore, their gazes at Xiao Bai carried a hint of contempt.

However, what happened next took everyone by surprise: Xiao Bai's body gathered and swelled, expanding until it became comparable in size to Ao, the largest among the three Primordial Demons.

After growing larger, Xiao Bai's appearance was no longer cute and endearingly clumsy, but as fierce and terrifying as the ancient giant beast that Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao had encountered in the Polar Ice Land.

Correspondingly, the Spiritual Power within its body also surged tens of times stronger.

From a distance on the mountain to the west, Xie Xiaofeng exclaimed in amazement, "Xiao Bai actually has such a terrifying side."

"Mhm!" Tang Jing nodded with a frown, more worried about Ye Yuqiao's condition. Ye Yuqiao's body was already very weak, and now that it had burned its own blood, not only was it too much for her to endure, but even the child inside her could be affected.

"Aow!" Xiao Bai roared angrily at the three Netherworld Primordial Demons again, its eyes gleaming fiercely with sharp teeth bared.

In terms of sheer presence, it had improved significantly from just moments ago. Although it couldn't completely intimidate the three Primordial Demons, it also made them dare not belittle it any longer.

While Xiao Bai's roar was still echoing in the chilly wind, two massive figures suddenly appeared on both sides of it.

Two figures emerged, one like an ox-head, and the other resembling horse-face! Their bodies pierce into the belly of the night sky from below, perfectly encapsulating the idiom "towering like a giant."

Upon seeing Ox-head and Horse-face appear, all three Primordial Demons of the Underworld were taken aback. After a pause, they looked at each other, then flew towards the higher reaches of the night sky, eventually disappearing without a trace.

They fled not because they feared they could not defeat Xiao Bai and Ox-head and Horse-face, but because they were worried about the Purgatory Fire on their bodies and needed to find a way to extinguish it promptly.

Seeing that the three Primordial Demons of the Underworld had vanished, Xie Xiaofeng on a distant mountain revealed a joyful expression and said, "Did those three Primordial Demons of the Underworld leave?"

"How strange?" Lin Huashan at his side showed confusion, "Is there a secret path in the sky? How did those three Primordial Demons of the Underworld suddenly disappear?"

..

After a long time, having confirmed the Primordial Demons of the Underworld had indeed fled, Xiao Bai, whose body had swelled, suddenly started panting heavily, then abruptly shrunk back to its original size.

The terrifyingly large form that it had taken on earlier was actually a method of transformation taught by its kin to frighten enemies when in danger. In truth, it was all a bluff; luckily, the three Primordial Demons of the Underworld had already left, or its disguise would have surely been exposed.

"Roar!" Thinking of how it had saved Ye Yuqiao, Xiao Bai, now back to its smaller size, emitted a pleasant cry, appearing quite delighted and adorably charming.

Xiao Bai stood up in mid-air, parking its bottom in the emptiness behind it. Tilting its head to the left, Yuqiao began to slowly slide out from its ear, and Xiao Bai promptly extended its arms to catch Ye Yuqiao.

It cradled Ye Yuqiao in the palm of its hand, then began to pour Spiritual Power into her body.

After a while, Yuqiao slowly opened her eyes, looked at Xiao Bai's cute pink nose and innocent appearance, smiled, and said softly, "Xiao Bai, thank you for saving me just now."

"Roar!" Xiao Bai let out a cheerful cry.

Suddenly, a teardrop fell from Yuqiao's left eye. She bowed her head and said aggrievedly, "You're so much better than that jerk Chen Hao!"

"Nether King, are you alright?" Ox-head and Horse-face approached Xiao Bai to inquire. By this time, both had reverted to their smaller forms, with Horse-face carrying the severely injured Zhao Chong in his arms.

Ye Yuqiao shook her head and hurriedly asked, "How is Family Leader Zhao?"

"He should be alright. It's all thanks to this little giant beast for pouring Spiritual Power into Family Leader Zhao, hence saving his internal organs and soul."

"Xiao Bai, you're amazing!" Ye Yuqiao praised Xiao Bai. Nevertheless, Chen Hao still crossed her mind.

After all, one couldn't always count on sudden brilliance from Xiao Bai or others; to contend with those three Primordial Demons of the Underworld and Hua Shan's group, they would still need Chen Hao.

Subsequently, Xiao Bai took Ye Yuqiao back to a mountain in the northwest.

Given Zhao Chong's serious injuries, Ye Yuqiao decided to wait until he woke up before they would head to the Guwu town to meet with people from the four major families.

The group arrived at a cave, where Xiao Bai set up a Barrier at the entrance to block out the cold winds.

"We must find a way to locate Lin Xiaofan and force her to release Chen Hao," Yuqiao said.

Xie Xiaofeng nodded, "Then I'll return to the mortal world tomorrow and seek help from Ye Fei. Being the Campus Hero, he should be quite skilled in finding people."

"But Ye Fei's father-in-law just passed away not long ago; they haven't even held the seventh-day mourning ceremony."

"But apart from him, who else can we ask for help?"
