Chapter 1278: Chapter 338: Demon Power Restriction

Outside the room, Little Wuya stepped out, feeling anxious.

But she dared not oppose the boss’s orders, muttering to herself to stay calm and trust the boss’s words.

Over the years, following Ye Lingyue, not only had her skills improved, but her mindset had also been honed; she was no longer the reckless little girl she once was.

The boss had said to seize the chance when Situ Nan was not paying attention and rescue Miss Luo Yi and Qin Xiaochuan first.

But upon reaching the corner, she suddenly collided with several people.

Leading them was none other than Di Shen, who was supposed to be on a mission, followed by the captives Qin Xiaochuan, Huang Jun, and Senior Sister Wan Yun holding Little Evil Rabbit.

"It’s great to run into you!" Little Wuya, seeing Di Shen, knew she’d met a savior and forgot she was in the guise of the manager, grabbing Di Shen.

"It’s that dog manager, that lackey, see if I don’t kill you!" Qin Xiaochuan, seeing Little Wuya, was enraged, with the Power of Reincarnation Gold surging on his fist, ready to strike her.

"Wait, she’s Little Wuya, just like me, we’re both master’s Beast Pets," Little Evil Rabbit promptly said.

Little Wuya slapped her forehead, immediately releasing the illusion state.

The crowd was stunned when the lecherous-looking manager transformed into a lovely girl.

"Well, well, well... Sixth Brother, how many Beast Pets does Sixth Sister-in-law have, each one more remarkable than the last?"

Qin Xiaochuan was flabbergasted.

He’d known Sixth Sister-in-law for so long, she seemed like a black hole, hiding countless secrets.

"No more talking; the boss might be in trouble. She risked herself to save Miss Luo Yi and is trapped in the room by that Situ Nan."

With that, Little Wuya spoke, as a gust of wind whipped past, and Di Shen vanished.

Di Shen arrived in front of the courtyard, and as he approached, the Five Beasts Road revealed the souls of five Spiritual Beasts.

"Away!"

Anxious, Di Shen ignored the Spiritual Beasts, releasing a dark qi from his body. Once his demonic power emerged, the Spiritual Beasts were terrified and vanished in an instant.

With a swoosh, Di Shen rushed straight into the courtyard.

Upon entering, a spherical prohibition appeared ahead.

The prohibition was covered with numerous runes.

Due to the prohibition, a shroud of Death Qi enveloped the entire courtyard, and all the Spiritual Power around was slowly absorbed into the prohibition.

As Di Shen approached, the prohibition emitted a powerful rebound force, pushing him back several steps.

"This prohibition is peculiar."

Di Shen’s brow furrowed as he raised a hand and threw a punch.

The relentless fist wind vanished upon contact with the prohibition.

Instead of being weakened, the prohibition slightly expanded.

Witnessing this, Di Shen’s gaze became even deeper.

"Di Shen!"

Behind him, Qin Xiaochuan, Huang Jun, and others hurried up.

"This place..." Upon entering the courtyard, everyone, including Qin Xiaochuan, felt discomfort, as if something choked their throats, making breathing difficult, even Little Wuya.

Moreover, everyone noticed their Primordial Power seemed to vanish like sinking stones, making it hard to summon.

"What in the world is this ghostly prohibition," Qin Xiaochuan spat in frustration, glaring at the prohibition.

Among them, only Di Shen and Little Evil Rabbit fared slightly better.

Di Shen swiftly glanced at Little Evil Rabbit.

This prohibition seemed to affect them less because it was a Demon World prohibition.

Such a prohibition, once set, posed suppression to ordinary Human God’s Martial Artists.

Only demons with sufficient cultivation could resist the prohibition’s influence.

"Fourth Brother, Senior Sister Wan Yun, leave Ling Yue to me. You’ll be of no help here; this is a growth prohibition that feeds on surrounding Spiritual Power. Split into two teams and rescue Luo Yi and City Lord Yang. The other team should evacuate all Living Spirits from the City Lord’s Mansion."

Di Shen quickly made a plan.

"Sixth Brother, well, we’ll follow your lead. You and Sixth Sister-in-law, take care. I’ll lead the team out first. Little Evil Rabbit, come with us; we might need your help on the way."

Though unhappy to admit, Qin Xiaochuan understood their presence only hindered.

Gritting his teeth, he glanced at Di Shen and led the group to retreat.

Soon, only Di Shen remained in the courtyard.

With furrowed brows, Di Shen stared at the ever-expanding spherical prohibition.

Attacking was impossible, and forcing a breakthrough was futile. Just what kind of demon was Situ Nan, and how could he rescue his wife?

And at that moment, what predicament was Ye Lingyue facing inside the prohibition?

When Situ Nan thrust a needle towards Ye Lingyue’s skull, the inches-long needle made a "hiss," fully embedding into her skull.

Ye Lingyue’s originally clear eyes gradually shifted out of focus.

"The first needle, hehehe, five needles remaining," Situ Nan said, quickening his pace.

He swiftly inserted four more needles into Ye Lingyue’s solar, Taiyuan, Taibai, and Taixi acupoints.

With each needle, Ye Lingyue’s gaze grew more bewildered, and by the last needle, she seemed dazed, almost like a Puppet.

"Just one final needle, the last needle, and it’s done. Let’s see how this new Spirit Puppet compares to Luo Yi."

In excitement, Situ Nan couldn’t help but stick out his scarlet tongue and lick.

His final needle was about to pierce Ye Lingyue.

Seeing ghosts, persisting any longer would truly make me a Spirit Puppet.

Ye Lingyue, who had appeared "stupid," abruptly opened her eyes.

"Situ Nan, if you want to turn me into a puppet, try again in your next life."

With a sudden crash, the ropes binding Ye Lingyue snapped, and she fiercely slammed into Situ Nan, sending him flying.

"Cough, cough, how, how are you unaffected?"

Seeing Ye Lingyue standing there, Situ Nan was alarmed.

He’d clearly inserted the Soul Loss Needles into her vital acupoints.

"You think those lousy needles could control my soul? If not for seeking a solution to save Luo Yi, I wouldn’t have tolerated your needles."

Ye Lingyue finished and harnessed the Power of Heaven and Earth, emitting five cracking sounds as all five Soul Loss Needles flew out from her body.
