Their true feelings revealed: the beastly husbands are working themselves to the bone every night.

Chapter 183 Cutting the Lifeline
In those intertwined paths, Su Mo discovered the threads of fate connecting her and Mo Xiao and the others.

This is the main reason why Jiang Wu was able to control them through her.

Su Mo lowered her gaze slightly, her heart sinking.

Jiang Wu said smugly, "Your fates are all in my hands! Whether you surrender or perish with Su Mo is entirely up to you!"

Jin Tong's dark eyes were fixed on the compass in Jiang Wu's hand, and a sense of vigilance arose involuntarily in his heart.

He clearly saw the endings of the first nine cycles, each one repeating itself. But this final one, the ultimate ending, had not yet appeared.

In other words, although Jiang Wu has the ability to restart fate, she cannot change herself or their ending.

At this moment, Jin Tong finally understood what Su Mo had said that day: all causes and effects are determined by the heart.

Everyone's final fate is determined by their own choices. What may seem like destiny is actually the result of countless decisions made along the way!

Whether it's his or Jiang Wu's ending, it's always been the inevitable cause and effect of their own choices.

Jin Tong looked at Su Mo with a serious expression.

Su Mo was pondering how to destroy the compass in Jiang Wu's hand.

Jiang Wu's cheat ability should be similar to her system; the vitality of these things is bound to the original body.

Most of them live and die together.

However, if Jiang Wu dies before being unbound, then her connection with the destiny chart will not disappear, and the influence the destiny chart brings because of her will not dissipate.

Therefore, before killing Jiang Wu, we must first sever her connection with the destiny chart!
Xiao Jiu said in her mind, "Host, perhaps we could try crippling Jiang Wu's martial arts skills first. Her kind of cheat ability usually requires internal energy to operate!"

"understood."

Su Mo looked up at Jiang Wu and said, "Lord Jiang, you have the chance to defy fate, yet you repeatedly trap yourself and repeat the same mistakes! You are so stubborn and unwilling to reflect on your own actions, how can you not lose! Even if you were given a thousand more chances, you would never win!"

Jiang Wu's eyes burned with rage as she stared intently at her: "I have never lost! I have the ability to be reborn from the ashes, how could I lose! The ones who lost are you, and these ants! You are all just pawns on the chessboard, at my mercy!"

"An outsider like you is destined to die by my hand time and time again!" Jiang Wu stared at Su Mo with a sinister gaze: "Su Mo, I will make sure you are reduced to ashes and completely annihilated beyond the six realms of reincarnation!"

With a flick of her wrist, she put away the compass in her hand and said coldly, "Take this!"

Su Mo frowned, gritted her teeth, pulled out the arrow that had pierced her shoulder, and leaped into the air.

Jin Tong waited for his chance and headed straight for Jiang Wu.

Aci reacted quickly, gathered her forces, and fought against Jintong and Moxiao who had surrounded her.

Behind them, Xuanwei and the Northern Wing Clan Chief were leading their men in a fierce battle against Jiang Wu's soldiers. Jin Tong quickly understood from Su Mo's techniques.

She wanted to destroy Jiang Wu's internal energy!

To destroy someone's inner strength, you must either break their bones and tendons or destroy their wisdom!

It's not easy to break the bones of a level 10 orc, but with Jiang Wu's wisdom, Jin Tong understood it after a little thought!
That was her reverse feather!

That reverse feather was both Jiang Wu's weakness and her source of wisdom!

To get what's in their favor, they have to force Jiang Wu to reveal her true form.

Both Jin Tong and Jiang Wu have reincarnated nine times, and they know each other very well.

He has no advantage in directly confronting Jiang Wu, but he can assist Su Mo!

With Jin Tong's assistance, Su Mo gained the upper hand. The whip tail in her hand swept across Jiang Wu's hand, and the totem on her wrist heated up again.

After being stained with blood, the power of the whip in his hand increased significantly.

Jiang Wu gradually found herself struggling to keep up with Su Mo and Jin Tong.

She was already using the power of the star chart to suppress the urge to transform into her true form. With this operation, her internal energy was greatly reduced, the effects of the medicine were enhanced, and the urge in her heart became even stronger!

Jiang Wu quickly adjusted her tactics. She subtly flicked her fingertips to summon a wisp of Jin Tong's soul and exerted her power.

As expected, Jin Tong was restrained and his internal energy was limited. In a moment of distraction, he was hit by a poisoned arrow from A Ci, which almost struck his heart.

Su Mo quickly tossed him a packet of medicine: "Take this to suppress the poison!"

Jiang Wu's hateful gaze swept over Jin Tong. If she could kill him right now, she would have liked to finish him off immediately!
Soon, Jiang Wu used the same trick again, aiming the dagger in her hand at Ye Yuan, who was standing next to Su Mo.

This time, Su Mo keenly sensed her intention and frowned, calling out, "Ye Yuan, be careful!"

Jiang Wu sneered, then flicked her finger and sent the dagger flying towards Su Mo.

"Wife master!"

The moment Mo Xiao lunged forward, his dagger grazed Su Mo's arm, leaving a glaring bloodstain.

The wound wasn't fatal, but the medicine on the dagger was very potent and fermented rapidly after it came into contact with blood.

Almost at the same time that the bloodstain appeared on Su Mo's body, Mo Xiao noticed that his internal energy was being restricted.

The others weren't much better off; the moment they lost their strength, the enemy took advantage of their vulnerability!

"Miss Su!"

Although Xuanqing and Longyan were not restricted, their minds were affected. At this time, if they were not careful, they would give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of them.

Su Mo frowned, composed herself, and lashed out with the long whip again.

She said to Mo Xiao, "Hold Jiang Wu's beast husband back, and leave her to me!" She could sense that Jiang Wu's breathing was becoming unstable, and she had to force Jiang Wu's true form out as soon as possible! Otherwise, with her current strength, she probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

Jiang Wu naturally sensed Su Mo's intention, a violent glint appeared in her eyes, and a strong aura of killing intent emanated from her body.

She didn't want to waste any more time with Su Mo; she had to deal with the people in front of her as soon as possible!

With a wave of his hand, ten thousand feathers appeared out of thin air, instantly transforming into sharp blades that hurtled towards Su Mo.

Ye Yuan, who was at the front, subconsciously stood up and rushed towards Su Mo behind him.

At the critical moment, Su Mo summoned the Heart-Protecting Scale given to her by Ye Yuan, used the power of the totem to catalyze energy, and flung it at the feather blade.

The thousands of sharp blades that Jiang Wu transformed into collided with the light shield formed by the heart-protecting scale, bursting out with dazzling light.

With a loud bang, all the feather blades in the sky shattered, and the heart-protecting scale turned into a white light, instantly piercing into Ye Yuan's heart!

Just as Su Mo was about to flick her whip again, Jiang Wu flicked her fingertips, and instantly a thick red mist rose around her!

Su Mo frowned: "Hold your breath, it's poisonous!"

But it was too late. The poisonous gas entered through the pores and flowed into the heart through the blood!
Su Mo staggered uncontrollably. Jiang Wu's poison gas seemed to have escalated again, not only making people unable to exert their strength, but also causing them to hallucinate!
A mechanical voice appeared in Su Mo's mind: "Host's current danger level has exceeded the limit. Automatic protection mechanism activated!"

Soon, a layer of white light enveloped Su Mo.

Xiao Jiu urged, "Quickly take the antidote pill!"

Su Mo quickly pulled out a purse from her waist and tossed it to Fei Yan and Mo Xiao beside her...

After she swallowed the antidote pill from her fingertip, she saw the layer of poisonous mist above her head instantly condense into countless red swords! They seemed ready to pierce through the totem's protective shield and shoot towards them at any moment!

As Su Mo gathered her totem's internal energy, Mo Xiao and the others also instantly gathered their internal energy to resist that force.

A piercing cry from Jiang Wu rang in their ears, a cry that seemed to weep blood, like the King of Hell coming to claim their lives, leaving them nowhere to hide, stabbing straight into the depths of their souls. Some of the lower-level orcs could not resist her inner force, instantly bleeding from their seven orifices, howling incessantly; others had already lost their minds and were killing each other.

"Host, it's a Soul-Seizing Curse! This should be Jiang Wu's ultimate move! You have a totem with you, so the effect on you is not too bad."

Su Mo frowned and looked at the people around her. Judging from the expressions of Mo Xiao and the others, they had expended a lot of energy to resist Jiang Wu's Soul-Seizing Curse.

By now, everyone's stamina has reached its limit in this battle.

This can't go on any longer; it's time to end it!
Su Mo frowned and asked Xiao Jiu, "How could she use a deadly move without revealing her true form?"

"She must have had no other choice but to use this final, indiscriminate attack. A finishing move without revealing her true form is much less effective. However, given our current state, this attack is still quite difficult to deal with."

Su Mo frowned. Jiang Wu wanted to exhaust everyone's inner strength before killing them all!
Jiang Wu's other wave of soul-capturing spells soon arrived.

The surrounding wails grew even more intense, and amidst that agonizing scream, Jiang Wu revealed a satisfied smile.

"Su Mo, you are no match for me. Killing you would be as easy as turning my hand!"

Su Mo gripped the long whip tightly and chuckled softly: "Stop dreaming. You've even used your ultimate move. You have no more trump cards left! Jiang Wu, this will be your last reincarnation!"

With the help of the totem, she leaped at Jiang Wu again, and after several rounds of fighting, she sprinkled the medicinal powder in her hand onto the other side!

Although Jiang Wu had taken precautions, she still inhaled a small amount.

His body began to heat up, and the urge to transform into his true form grew stronger, forcing him to bring out the compass again to stabilize his breathing.

The instant the compass appeared in her palm, Su Mo seized the opportunity and flicked out a fingertip dagger, which was wrapped in totem power and went straight for the compass in Jiang Wu's hand.

Xiao Jiu once said that the dagger in the system space is incredibly sharp and can cut through anything. She wanted to know if it could sever the lifeline between her and the others on the life chart in Jiang Wu's hand!

By the time Jiang Wu realized what was happening, Su Mo's dagger had already pierced through the star chart.

A shattered golden light scattered, dazzling for a moment, and a crack was cut in the surface of the disc. The intricate fate trajectory on the disc was disordered for a moment, but it soon seemed to operate on its own, successfully repairing the crack!
As the golden light dissipated, Su Mo looked up again.

Jiang Wu also looked over subconsciously. How could this be! Once the life line in a birth chart is formed, it cannot be dispelled! How could it be cut off by Su Mo with a single stroke!

Xiao Jiu exclaimed excitedly, "Host, you've succeeded!"

Su Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With one less obstacle, her chances of winning would increase!

Mo Xiao and the others frowned slightly. Almost at the same time that Su Mo raised the animal skin bow in her hand, they leaped up and headed straight for Jiang Wu.

However, their physical strength is now limited by Jiang Wu's poison gas, and their moves are no longer as sharp as before. They are forcibly holding on to their last bit of strength to fight her!

The remaining lower-level orcs had already exhausted their inner strength in resisting Jiang Wu's two waves of soul-capturing spells, and now they had no energy left to fight.

Seeing that Jiang Wu was about to unleash her ultimate move, Xuan Qing, wielding a sharp blade, leaped forward.

Jiang Wu's eyes narrowed, and she was about to strike him back!

Su Mo's eyes darkened, and she swung her long whip to block Jiang Wu's palm strike.

At the same time, he called out, "Xuanqing!"

Xuan Qing turned his head and saw that the red crystal had been teleported to him by Su Mo using totem power and embedded into his body at the speed of light.

That energy was originally his own, and it quickly merged with other energies in his body, flowing into his meridians in an instant.

Xuan Qing frowned slightly, and with a spin, his clothes fluttering, his sword aura suddenly shifted, heading straight for Jiang Wu!

Jiang Wu was currently entangled with Su Mo and had no time to spare. When the sharp blade approached, there was no way to dodge.
