Li Dan immediately choked on his own tears. “Thank you, Your Highness! If I’m lucky enough to enter the cycle of reincarnation, I will definitely work hard for you in my next life!”

“Your Highness! We’re so grateful!”

The general’s black shadow said, “So now, we have to save Her Highness first. Only when Her Highness’s injuries improve will there be a chance to turn things around! Do you have any objections?”

Li Dan spoke first, “No! I’m even willing to offer 90% of my soul power to Her Highness!”

Meanwhile, the souls of those black shadows who were still worried about their soul powers earlier had been stirred up too.

“General! We are willing! We are willing to offer our soul power as a form of respect! We beg you to let us do so!”

The millions of black shadows shouted in unison, “We beg you to let us do so!”

The roars of millions of black shadows could be heard throughout the valley!

Tears welled up in Mu Yao’s eyes.

Seeing this and hearing the black shadow army, the man finally understood the woman’s identity. He felt an inexplicable sense of love for the woman in his heart.

The waves of soldiers’ shouts shook the valley.

The man watched as the woman’s tears fell. He made a silent promise to her in his heart: ‘Don’t worry, I will definitely let you leave this cave safely. You’ll leave righteously!’

At the same time, the general’s semi-transparent shadow floated into the air. Then, with a flash of light, the general’s shadow slowly expanded. The black silhouette of the general shouted, “All of you, listen to my command. Get in formation!”

The thousands of black shadows then floated into the air in groups and formed a circle around the general. “We’re in formation! General, please give your orders!”

“Disperse your souls!”

The millions of black shadows shouted in unison, “Disperse your souls!”

As the boiling lava flew below, the voices of the patriotic and beloved soldiers could be heard over the entire cliff.

Each group of the black shadows was arranged in a circle, emitting a white light that converged toward the general. The shadow of the general then merged with the white light and grew larger and larger.

At that moment, the Blood Pupil, who had his eyes closed, was unaware of the situation. All of a sudden, the couple came to his mind, and he opened his eyes, wanting to see how they were doing.

As the black shadow of the general grew larger and larger, a cold and terrifying scream suddenly spread throughout the valley.

“Your Heavenly God has come to visit you.” Immediately after, the Blood Pupil opened his eyes.

Mu Yao and the man looked up toward the sound warily.

Mu Yao held her breath.

The Blood Pupil existed in this mystical realm too! It was exactly the same as the mystical realm behind the “Spring” door!

Instinctively, the man rose to his feet and stood in front of Mu Yao, shouting, “Who’s that?”

The scream scared the black shadows that were about to finish their work out of their wits.

“General! The Heavenly God is here. What should we do?” one of them cried out.

“General, stop! We’ll die if you don’t stop!”another wailed.

“General!”

Then, another soldier retorted them, “What are you talking about? Do you still want to be cowards?! Don’t forget that Her Highness is our only hope! Don’t forget our mission! Don’t forget our identities as Tianlong’s soldiers! The soldiers of Tianlong only die gloriously in battle! They should never retreat because they are afraid of death!”

The general declared loudly, “Well said! Don’t stop. Let’s go on! We’re almost done making the Soul Elixir.”

Just then, Mu Yao shouted, “Soldiers!”

Seeing this, the Blood Pupil was enraged, and the entire valley shook violently!

The lava in the center of the valley began to surge violently!

Following which, the Blood Pupil screamed, “How dare you bunch of stupid humans cause trouble right under my nose? You must be tired of living! Very well, I’ll deal with you properly then. How dare you act so rashly in my territory?”

Gathering the last of her strength, Mu Yao stood up and shouted at the terrifying Blood Pupil, “Are you the Heavenly God? Come at me then!”

The man had not expected the woman to say that. He quickly hid the woman behind him and scolded her angrily with a dark expression, “Woman! It’s not that easy for you to die. How are you going to save them in your half-dead state?! Why are you always so silly at such crucial moments?”

Of course, Mu Yao knew that, but she was going crazy. She had to do something!

At the same time, the Blood Pupil emitted a red light that swept across the black shadows.

With a mocking tone, he said, “Going for you. Do you think so highly of yourself? You bunch of souls don’t even know the difference between life and death, yet you still don’t know what’s good for you. I’ll shatter your souls right now!”

“No!” Seeing this, Mu Yao dashed toward the lava stream! She didn’t care about the danger.

The man pulled her back fiercely and ordered her, “Woman, do you want their efforts to go to waste? If you die, you’ll be wasting all their efforts.”

The thousands of black shadows were swept away by the Blood Pupil’s red light, instantly scaring countless black shadows out of their wits!

“Ah! General!”

“General, a large group of black shadows has already been struck down by the Heavenly God!”

The general sounded like he was on the verge of death, but he still shouted at the top of his lungs, “Hold on as long as you’re alive!”

The Blood Pupil guffawed. “What a touching scene. It’s a pity that you’re all going to die!”

Following that, a large wave of red light shot out from Blood Pupil’s eye.

The general shouted, “We only have five seconds left! Hold on!”

The red light was about to hit the general’s shadow.

Mu Yao screamed at the top of her lungs. “No! No! Let them go!”

Mu Yao was in agony. Yet, she could not do anything! There was absolutely nothing she could do!

She had clearly promised to clear their names, but she couldn’t even save them! She wasn’t worthy of their sacrifice.

The red light was about to attack the million soldiers who were in the midst of their refinement.

The entire valley was trembling and the temperature in the valley was slowly rising as the lava flowed crazily over the cliff..
