After descending the mountain, my aloof fiancée became completely devoted to me.

She remained uneasy, knowing full well the strangeness and domineering nature of this ancient evil spirit; if it could not be eradicated, they would still be in a dead end three days later.

Lin Ping looked down at her, the coldness in his eyes completely gone, replaced by a gentler look, yet still carrying an air of absolute control.

"If others can't do it, I can."

These six simple words, without any exaggeration or embellishment, exude an overwhelming confidence.

From returning to the city to suppress various forces to sweeping away enemies in the southern border, he never made any boastful claims.

Looking at Lin Ping's resolute expression, Zhu Xiaohan's cool eyes flashed with a relieved smile: "I believe you, sir."

Aru nodded vigorously, her eyes crinkling with admiration: "I believe in you too, sir! No matter what evil spirits or demons they may be, you can vanquish them all with a single sword strike!"

Looking at the tall and steady figure of the young man in front of her, Shen Aoxue felt all her fear and anxiety subside.

As long as he's there, even the most perilous deadlock seems to have a way out.

Lin Ping reached out and gently brushed his hand across Shen Aoxue's brow.

A wisp of warm spiritual energy quietly seeped in, silently enveloping the deeply hidden ancient evil essence. It did not stimulate or detonate it, but simply imprisoned it firmly, completely sealing it in place and preventing it from secretly accumulating power and quietly growing stronger.

After doing all this, he slowly spoke and solemnly instructed, "For the next three days, the three of you will stay at Wutong Manor and not leave the premises."

"I have set up multiple restrictions inside and outside the manor, preventing any remaining earth vein yin energy or dark remnants from getting even half a step closer."

Zhu Xiaohan immediately replied, "Understood. I will guard the manor's formation, stabilize the surrounding barrier, and prevent any external forces from disturbing it."

Aru nodded: "I will stay by Aoxue's side and keep an eye on the unusual activity of the evil root within her!"

Shen Aoxue looked at Lin Ping and asked softly, "And what about you?"

Lin Ping gazed out the window at the dark night sky, looking towards the depths of the Southern Frontier's ley lines, his voice cold: "I'll go clean up the mess."

"Mo Qi manipulated the evil spirits of the earth's veins to wreak havoc, aiding and abetting the tyrant, yet he still managed to survive."

"The person behind the scenes is lying in wait, gathering strength and harboring murderous intent."

"Within three days, I will wipe out all the remaining enemies in the southern border region and cut off all their backup plans."

"On the night of the full moon, I will leave him with no formations to use and no evil spirits to borrow, and personally break his fateful deadlock."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ping's aura shifted slightly.

His ordinary clothes fluttered without wind, and a terrifying aura that had been hidden for a long time was faintly awakened on his tall and straight body. However, he perfectly concealed it in an instant, and still looked calm and composed.

He pretends to be weak while secretly being strong, concealing his true strength and never revealing his full trump card until the final battle.

But no one knew that Lin Ping had already completely taken control of the battle three days from now.

Shen Aoxue watched his resolute back, her heart stirred slightly, and she whispered, "You... be careful in everything you do."

Her tone was soft, but it concealed a deep sense of concern and worry.

Zhu Xiaohan's gaze was calm as she added, "The remaining evil energy in the Southern Border's ley lines is complex and chaotic. The enemy has definitely left an ambush, so do not underestimate them. If there are any unusual movements, send a message immediately, and we will provide support right away."

Aru quickly added, "Sir, please be careful! We'll wait for you to come back!"

Lin Ping nodded slightly, said no more, and turned to leave.

Just then, a streak of dark light suddenly streaked across the night sky!

call out!

A piercing sound rang out!

A dark shadow, imbued with a strong, malevolent aura from the earth's veins, suddenly swooped down from the night sky, heading straight for the bedroom window!

The aura was cold and domineering; it was none other than Mo Qi, who had suffered a crushing defeat and fled earlier!

He did not flee the southern border, but instead remained hidden on the outskirts of the manor, waiting for an opportunity to strike!

Just now, Lin Ping severely injured the mysterious man from a distance and destroyed the foundation of the earth's veins, causing a great commotion and completely exposing his own location.

Mo Qi seized the opportunity to arrive, his eyes filled with ferocious bloodshot veins, his body surging with evil aura, carrying a fierce determination to fight to the death!

"Lin Ping!!"

The moment Mo Qi landed, a loud shout rang out!

His meridians surged wildly, ignoring his injuries, and he forcefully detonated all the remaining evil energy from the earth veins within his body. His body swelled several times its original size, and dark evil energy swirled around him, surging wildly!

"You ruined my master's plan, destroyed my earth vein killing formation, and destroyed my foundational power!"

"You think the situation is stable?!"

"Even if it costs me my life, I will drag you down with me today!!"

Knowing that his master would have a final possession attack in three days, he came here now to desperately entangle Lin Ping, disrupt his rhythm, and buy time for his master to build up his strength!

An intense, malevolent aura instantly swept through the entire bedroom, a sudden gust of wind arose, and the curtains fluttered wildly!

Zhu Xiaohan's eyes turned cold, and she instantly stepped forward, circulating her spiritual energy, ready to stop him.

Aru also tensed up instantly, ready for battle.

"No need to move."

Lin Ping raised his hand to stop the two women, paused slightly, and slowly turned around.

He looked at Mo Qi, who was charging at him like a madman, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever, only extreme indifference and mockery.

"Even a defeated general dares to be arrogant."

Mo Qi's eyes were bloodshot as he roared madly, "Today I will burn all my evil power, my cultivation will increase several times over! Let's perish together and see how you resist!"

He formed a hand seal, and all the dark evil energy around him instantly condensed into a huge evil blade. The blade was pitch black and piercing, carrying all the remaining Yin energy of the Southern Frontier, and with a world-destroying power, it slashed fiercely at Lin Ping!

This is his last trump card, a deadly strike that burns his cultivation and even his life force!

Its power far surpasses any move from the previous battles!

The air in the bedroom exploded, the space trembled, and even before the evil blade arrived, the biting cold already made it hard to breathe!

Shen Aoxue's heart tightened, and she subconsciously wanted to speak up to remind him.

Zhu Xiaohan's expression was solemn. This move had already reached the peak of the half-step grandmaster level, and it was not something an ordinary person could withstand!

Available in the next second.

Faced with the unstoppable deadly evil blade, Lin Ping neither dodged nor avoided it, and did not even deliberately activate his spiritual power.

He simply raised his palm casually, using one hand to block in front of him.

The palm strike appeared to be light and effortless, lacking any power and utterly unremarkable.

Boom!!

The enormous, pitch-black evil blade crashed down into Lin Ping's palm!

The anticipated explosive impact and violent aftershocks did not occur.

The deadly blade, powerful enough to shatter buildings and tear apart formations, landed in Lin Ping's palm and vanished instantly, like a mud ox sinking into the sea!

It's impossible to make any progress!

Mo Qi's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of pinpoints, his face filled with disbelief!

"No...impossible!!"

His ultimate attack, which consumed all his cultivation, was actually easily blocked by the opponent's bare hands, having no effect whatsoever!

Lin Ping raised his eyes, a chilling glint flashing in them.

"I spared your life before so that you could witness another game of chess collapsing."

"They don't know how to cherish what they have, and instead choose to court their own demise."

As soon as he finished speaking, he slightly clenched his fist.

Click!

A crisp cracking sound suddenly rang out!

The enormous, pitch-black evil blade shattered and crumbled instantly!

The overwhelming Yin energy surged back like a tidal wave, completely backfiring on Mo Qi!

"ah--!!"

Mo Qi let out a heart-wrenching scream as his body was instantly pierced by the backlash of evil energy, his meridians severed and his bones shattered.
