As they passed through the interdimensional gate of the underworld, a wave of dizziness washed over them.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Ge and her group lost consciousness of traversing the underworld.

When Yu Ge woke up, she found that only Xiao Wangchen, Nalan Liyue and a few others were by her side.

Only a few members of the Heavenly God Academy's demon-slaying team.

Shen Liang, Xu Qingyao, and the demon-slaying teams from the four major immortal sects had long since disappeared without a trace.

Furthermore, the group was currently bound hand and foot to wooden frames.

Several people were tied to a high wooden frame, below which was a platform resembling an ancient altar, and a lot of firewood had been piled up under the frame.

A group of men, women, and children dressed in Miao ethnic costumes held torches and lit the firewood below.

The strange group of people were still muttering to themselves.

It sounds like they're chanting some kind of spell.

Before waking up, Yu Ge dreamed of roast suckling pig.

Smells good~

As soon as I opened my eyes, I realized I was about to become a roast suckling pig.

Yu Ge: ...

Yu Ge was tied to the frame and couldn't help but look around.

Around her were Xiao Wangchen and Nalan Liyue, who were also bound and still asleep.

On the other side of Xiao Wangchen and Nalan Liyue were Wu Jinli, Yu Yundu, and Pei Ji.

now.

Pei Ji and Yu Ge were the first to wake up.

Yu Ge looked at Pei Ji, who had his eyes open, and couldn't help but ask, "When did you wake up?"

Pei Ji was dressed in white, untouched by wind and snow, his cool face revealing an unwavering calm.

Despite having his hands and feet bound and being engulfed in blazing flames, the Six Realms Emperor, who had lived for a thousand years, remained calm and composed.

Pei Ji glanced at Yu Ge and replied, "I haven't slept at all."

Yu Ge forced a smile. "I wasn't planning on sleeping either..."

She fell asleep unintentionally, who would have thought... she would become roasted milk... uh, roasted person.

Yu Ge glanced at the golden rope binding her, a smirk playing on her lips. "I'm a Nascent Soul cultivator, after all. Breaking this rope should be a piece of cake for me."

Then, Yu Ge suddenly realized that when she was bound by ropes, the vast spiritual energy within her body, which was like an ocean, was completely unusable.

Yu Ge... is now no different from an ordinary person, and is even weaker than an ordinary person.

Yu Ge's face darkened, and she couldn't help but purse her lips, "What's going on?"

Upon seeing this, Pei Ji calmly replied, "It's the Immortal Binding Lock."

"A sixth-grade spiritual artifact, if the timing is right, can even trap a Void Refinement cultivator, let alone a Lesser Nascent Soul cultivator like you."

Pei Ji's lukewarm words immediately fueled Yu Ge's anger.

Yu Ge suddenly looked in Pei Ji's direction, a hint of expectation flashing in her eyes, "By the way, sir, you must be able to escape, right?"

Pei Ji shook his head calmly. "No, otherwise I would have gone down long ago."

Yu Ge: ...

She suspected that Pei Ji had damaged his brain when he fell from the immortal realm, otherwise how could his brain circuits be like this?

The fire below was about to rise up, and they didn't even know who was burning them to death; they were about to die without knowing why.

Even at this point, Pei Ji remained completely calm.

Yu Ge couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"

Yu Ge looked in Pei Ji's direction and found that although Pei Ji's limbs were bound, his deep eyes were gazing into the distance.

A thought struck the girl. "Are you thinking of a way to escape?"

Pei Ji then turned back, gave a lukewarm smile, and said, "Look..."

Following Pei Ji's gaze, Yu Ge saw...

A dark mountain range and a few birds soaring in the gloomy sky.

Yu Ge was taken aback. "Is there more to this than meets the eye?"

Pei Ji shook his head. "Don't you think it looks good?"

Yu Ge's face darkened again: "...I thought it was sacred."

then.

One by one, the people on the wooden frame above the flames also woke up.

First was Wu Jinli.

Upon realizing he was bound by the Immortal Binding Lock, Wu Jinli immediately looked in one direction with a worried expression.

"Yu Ge?"

When Wu Jinli saw that Yu Ge was still alive, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then I saw Yu Ge flirting with Pei Ji...

Wu Jinli: ?

It wasn't actually flirting.

But if the Demon Lord is jealous of even a sword that hasn't been drawn, let alone a handsome man in life.

What's more, that handsome man even dyed his hair the same color as mine.

Wu Jinli: ...I feel uneasy.

Upon seeing that Wu Jinli had woken up, Yu Ge was overjoyed, "Jinli, you're awake?"

But when he heard Yu Ge's kind concern for him, Wu Jinli's lips curled up slightly: She cares about me.

Wu Jinli quickly concealed his joy and said, "He's awake."

Yu Ge's lips twitched slightly. "You...were your lips turned up just now?"

After Wu Jinli raised the corners of his mouth by three pixels, he shook his head.

Yu Ge: ...

Then it was Yu Yundu who awoke.

After realizing he was trapped by the golden rope, Yu Yundu immediately tried to break free.

But... it failed.

Yu Yundu immediately cried out to Yu Ge, "Brother, save me!"

Yu Ge: "...You stole my lyrics."

The last two to awaken were Long Aotian himself, Xiao Wangchen, and Nalan Liyue.

Xiao Wangchen found himself bound by the Immortal Binding Lock, tried to struggle, and then found that he could not break free.

Finally, Xiao Wangchen and Nalan Liyue both looked in the direction of Yu Ge.

"Senior brother, save me!"

Yu Ge: ...Why are you two stealing my lyrics too?

Begging for help or pleading for mercy are words I usually use.

Yu Ge sighed deeply.

Suddenly, Xiao Wangchen sniffed the smell nearby and said, "Hey, the smell of barbecue?"

Yu Ge: "Yeah, it's for grilling us."

Xiao Wangchen: ...

Only then did everyone realize the danger.

The group was bound by the Immortal Binding Lock, a sixth-grade spiritual artifact. Even a Void Refinement expert couldn't activate their spiritual energy while bound, let alone this group of young people.

Pei Ji, the most resilient old monster, was still admiring the scenery, and for a moment, Yu Ge felt a surge of bitterness in her heart.

I stared blankly at the world every day until someone suddenly told me that this was called being an idiot.

This is how Yu Ge feels right now.

Yu Ge: ...

The strange people dressed in Miao costumes below were still talking amongst themselves.

"Burn these outsiders to death! How dare they lay a hand on Lord Dragon Spirit!"

"That's right, we must not let these invaders get away..."

"Offer sacrifices to the spirits! Offer sacrifices to the spirits!"

"..."

Amidst the discussion of a group of people below.

Yu Ge and her group gradually came to understand some of the things.

The place where they were tied up was a place called Longling Village.

According to the explanation of the Xie family patriarch in Yunhai, there are living natives on the edge of the underworld.

The people of Longling Village are probably the original inhabitants who survived on the edge of the underworld.

Furthermore, the original inhabitants of Dragon Spirit Village mistook Yu Ge and her group for intruders, and even suspected that they had come to harm their Lord Dragon Spirit...

Although Yu Ge didn't know who Lord Long Ling was.

However, according to the villagers of Longling Village, this Lord Longling is of noble status and possesses great supernatural powers. He is the guardian deity of Longling Village, who can ensure that Longling Village enjoys good weather and peace.

The villagers of Longling Village continued to add fuel to the fire below the group.

Yu Ge and the others: ...

The group began to argue.

How can I save myself?

Wu Jinli accused Yu Yundu: "Yu Yundu, all that muscle is dead, you've trained for nothing..."

Yu Yundu accused Wu Jinli, "You're just envious and jealous, aren't you..."

Nalan Liyue shouted, "Stop arguing, if you've got the guts, let's fight!"

Pei Ji: Still admiring the scenery.

Yu Ge: ...I'm completely out of ideas.

Suddenly, she remembered something: she had high-level talismans in her storage pouch at her waist, which could be used to break the Immortal Binding Lock.

Yu Ge immediately looked at the group and whispered, "Kick my waist!"
