Yaohua pretended to step forward in front of him.
"Brother, you have to protect me!"
The moment Yaohua paced over, the sword in her hand was like a swimming dragon. In the blink of an eye, it was hovering at the opponent's neck.
"It seems that my sister-in-law doesn't need my protection."
Zhaojun laughed. As soon as he moved, Yaohua pressed the sword hard against his neck. "If you move again, I'll cut off your head!"
No matter if he was an undead or an undead with an indestructible body, the neck was always his weak point. As long as his head was cut off, no matter how powerful Zhaojun was, he wouldn't be able to stir up any trouble!
She grabbed Zhaojun's two arms and walked towards her two companions.
Zhaojun smiled. "You're using me to threaten them?"
His eyes swept over the sinful immortals surrounding them, and he bared his teeth.
"They bow to me only because I'm stronger than them. They're just waiting for you to kill me."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
As soon as Yaohua finished speaking, a sinful immortal tentatively stepped forward.
But as soon as he took a step forward, Muyang suddenly waved his sleeve. There was a hint of annoyance in his tone. "I didn't want to make a move, but now these things can't be hidden."
As his voice fell, a calf suddenly flew out.
Yaohua let out a soft cry of surprise and only then saw clearly what he had waved out.
A shiny little curved knife, which had now returned to his hand.
Yaohua felt relieved, and she pressed the sword in her hand even tighter.
These sinful immortals didn't rush forward directly. Instead, they were testing their actions. When they saw how ruthless Immortal Muyang was, they all froze in place. This made Yaohua even more certain of Zhaojun's control over them.
"Sister-in-law, be careful. Swords have no eyes. If you really cut my neck, Zhaowu will be heartbroken."
Yaohua pretended to loosen the sword a little. "Brother is right. But my friends are very vulnerable. If I let you go and it causes harm to my two friends, I'll be heartbroken. Then Zhaowu will be even more heartbroken. Brother has a deep brotherly bond with Zhaowu. I'm sure you won't feel good either."
"Exactly." Zhaojun sighed softly. "Zhaowu is my only younger brother. How could I bear to make him sad?"
She was just waiting for this sentence!
"Then I'll trouble elder brother to escort us for a while."
Yaohua's eyes scanned around, passing over those sinful immortals who were eyeing them covetously. "I'll trouble elder brother to ask them to make way a bit. Don't hurt my friends."
Zhaojun's eyes flashed. Although those sinful immortals were reluctant, they still took a small step back, only leaving a narrow path.
Bailu walked in the front, taking the lead with Immortal Muyang. They looked back at Yaohua.
Soon they disappeared into the world.
"Sister-in-law, it seems your companions have left you behind."
Yaohua smiled. "I'm really heartbroken. But they're not even worth a finger of elder brother."
A glint of light flashed across Zhaojun's eyes. "Sister-in-law, aren't you afraid Zhaowu will be jealous when you say this?"
"Brother and Zhaowu have a deep brotherly bond. If I get closer to brother, Zhaowu will be happy."
Yaohua didn't walk in the direction where Bailu and Immortal Muyang had left. When she saw a sinful immortal eager to go after them, Yaohua tightened the sword again.
"Brother?"
"Good sister-in-law, don't worry. Brother always keeps his word. Since I've let your friends go, I definitely won't make things difficult for them."
After Zhaojun finished speaking, the sinful immortal who had wanted to go after them immediately stood back obediently.
Yaohua said nice words, calling him "brother" smoothly, but her actions were not so gentle.
When they passed a place with steps, she directly put the sword on his neck and dragged Zhaojun up the mountain.
On the other side of the ore was a cliff. Yaohua looked down and silently summoned the system.
As soon as the system was woken up by her, it felt her body falling rapidly.
Without time to think, it directly made a branch grow beside the cliff, barely blocking Yaohua's falling figure.
"Host, what crazy thing did you do while I was sleeping?"
Rarely seeing the system so angry, Yaohua softened her attitude since she had just received its favor.
"I didn't pay attention just now and slipped. Fortunately, you were here, System Brother. Otherwise, I would have definitely fallen to my death!" Yaohua patted her chest with lingering fear and glanced at the bottomless glacier.
"Really?" The system's voice was full of suspicion.
"Of course. To thank you, when we get out safely, I'll definitely kill a big demon to nourish you."
The system was too lazy to argue with her. It snorted and went back to sleep.
It was much easier to deceive the system here than outside. Yaohua let out a sigh of relief.
Let's rewind the time to half an hour ago.
Zhaoying smiled as he looked at the bottomless cliff. "Sister-in-law, you don't want to push me down, do you?"
"Brother, you're overthinking." Yaohua denied it verbally, but the sword was slowly moving on his neck. "How could I bear to push brother down like this?"
"Then why don't you take the sword away?" Zhaojun glanced at the sinful immortals who had followed.
Those sinful immortals followed his lead. Sensing his intention, they immediately surrounded them.
"There's a cliff below. If you cut off my head, even if you don't die up here, you'll die if you fall down."
Zhaojun implied something.
Yaohua nodded as if she was really considering what he said, and the sword in her hand loosened a bit.
Zhaojun smiled. Just as he was about to speak, the next moment, his throat was suddenly cut open, and the wind and snow rushed in.
The blood of the undead had already dried up. Even though Yaohua cut his neck, there was only yellowish - white pus, not a single drop of blood.
This disgusting liquid got on Yaohua's body. As soon as Yaohua cut off Zhaojun's head, she couldn't wait to throw it off the cliff.
With his head separated from his body, the torso left on top soon turned into a skeleton.
As soon as Zhaojun died, those sinful immortals immediately rushed forward. Their eyes were as fierce as wolves', and they wished they could tear Yaohua to pieces.
Yaohua smiled and directly jumped off the cliff.
Are you kidding me? How could she give these people the chance to humiliate her?
Recalling what had just happened, Yaohua suddenly felt a bit strange.
Although the demons couldn't use their spiritual power on this ice field, Zhaojun was really too weak. Did he have some other tricks waiting for her?
The words Zhaojun had used to threaten her gradually came to mind. Yaohua was quite sure that he was really worried that she would cut off his neck.
Forget it. Don't think about it for now.
Now she had to figure out a way to get out of this wretched place.
As she thought, Yaohua took out her sword.
This sword seemed quite tough.
Yaohua tentatively used the sword to get stuck on the cliff and climbed up bit by bit.
She was very careful in her movements, making sure that each step was on the protruding branch to prevent herself from slipping again and falling to her death. This method was quite feasible.
Although it was a bit strenuous, it wasn't useless.
Just as she was about to reach the top, her sore and weak hand suddenly trembled, and she almost fell again.
Fortunately, the sword buffered her speed, so she didn't end up wasting all her efforts.
She held the sword with one hand and grabbed the protruding rock with the other, letting out a sigh of exhaustion.
