Due to Dongfang Hao's speed, everyone was caught off guard as he had already dismembered Tang Shiyin before they could react. It wasn't until he stopped that they finally realized what had happened.
Tang Hongxuan, witnessing his daughter’s tragic death before his eyes, immediately charged at Dongfang Hao, attacking while shouting, "You ungrateful wretch! My Shiyin saved your life, and not only do you fail to show gratitude, but you also killed her..."
As Dongfang Hao dodged his attacks, he coldly replied, "Killing her is the lightest punishment. If it weren't for the kindness your Tang Clan has shown me during this time, just based on her words earlier, I could have taken the lives of thousands from your clan."
"Bah! You ungrateful scoundrel! You killed my daughter and expect me to be grateful?" Tang Hongxuan shouted as he launched an even fiercer attack against Dongfang Hao.
Seeing Tang Hongxuan relentlessly pursuing Dongfang Hao, Miyazawa quickly stepped in front of him to block the attacks. It was only after Miyazawa joined that Tang Hongxuan remembered he had subordinates.
He immediately commanded the members of the Tang Clan to kill Dongfang Hao and avenge his daughter.
However, many in the Tang Clan were already terrified and treated his orders as if they were mere background noise, pretending not to hear. Some even attempted to show off in front of Tang Hongxuan and rushed to attack Dongfang Hao.
Noticing some people were quietly retreating, Tang Hongxuan issued a stern order: "Anyone who dares to retreat will be poisoned by me!"
Upon hearing this, those individuals dared not step back. However, they merely pretended to surround Miyazawa and the others without launching a real attack.
Seeing that they no longer retreated, Tang Hongxuan assumed they were genuinely afraid of him. He then demanded that all members of the Poison Gate Alliance attack Dongfang Hao.
Yet, the members of the Poison Gate Alliance were cunning and self-serving individuals who specialized in poison. Therefore, they did not heed Tang Hongxuan's command to attack Dongfang Hao; after all, they had not forgotten that a very powerful Little One was present.
When Tang Hongxuan saw that they were ignoring his orders, he became furious and intended to demand compliance from them just as he had with the Tang Clan members.
But before he could speak, Luo Bingbing calmly said, "It seems some people are eager to report to Yama King's Hall! Then I will reluctantly do a good deed and send them all down to hell."
After saying this, Luo Bingbing gestured to Shadowless and An Ruo Ran beside her, signaling them to take action.
Shadowless and An Ruo Ran had long been eager to take action, but without orders from their master, they dared not act recklessly. Upon seeing Luo Bingbing's signal, they immediately joined the fray.
Due to the disparity in numbers, Miyazawa and his group had previously only managed to hold their ground against the Tang Clan. However, with the addition of Shadowless and An Ruo Ran, the tide of battle quickly shifted.
In no time at all, everyone from the Tang Clan was dealt with, including their leader, Tang Hongxuan.
Although his poison techniques were formidable, allowing him to unleash toxins with a mere wave of his hand, Shadowless and Miyazawa had already built up immunity to the pills created by Luo Bingbing using the Six Treasure Tree. Therefore, Tang Hongxuan's poisons were utterly ineffective against them.
Seeing that the Tang Clan had been eliminated, Luo Bingbing slowly addressed everyone: "I came here today solely to take my family away, with no ill intentions. However, I was obstructed by the Tang Clan, leaving me no choice but to eradicate them. As for you all, carry on with your business! You need not concern yourselves with us."
Thanks to Luo Bingbing infusing her words with inner strength, everyone from the Poison Gate Alliance heard her clearly.
After dispatching the Tang Clan members, Dongfang Hao quickly approached Luo Bingbing, his eyes shining as he asked, "Wife, has your memory fully returned?"
"Yes. Is there a problem?"
Upon hearing her response, Dongfang Hao immediately shook his head. "No, no problem at all."
As soon as he finished speaking, he lifted Luo Bingbing into his arms and turned to Miyazawa, instructing him, "Send someone immediately to wipe out the Tang Clan."
"Yes, Master. I will handle it right away."
After Miyazawa left, Dongfang Hao carried Luo Bingbing out of the Poison Gate Alliance, intending to find Lo An Lord to understand the current situation of the battle.
However, after taking just a few steps, an elderly man in the crowd called out, "Young Master, please wait a moment."
Hearing this, Dongfang Hao did not stop; he continued walking toward the main gate while holding Luo Bingbing. The old man saw that he was being ignored but did not lose heart. He called out again, "Young Master, please stay! Old Man has urgent news to share."
Though he addressed him as "Young Master," what he truly wanted was to keep Luo Bingbing. The reason for this was that he had just witnessed how ineffective the Tang Clan's poisons were against Shadowless and his companions during their fight.
Therefore, he immediately guessed that Shadowless must also be experts in poison and detoxification, and since Luo Bingbing was their master, he felt that as the master, Luo Bingbing should be even more formidable than Shadowless.
Seeing that Dongfang Hao still showed no intention of acknowledging him, the old man quickly used Lightness Skill to block his path.
When Dongfang Hao saw an old man standing in front of him, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said, "Step aside."
"Young Master, I mean no harm. It's just that you have just neutralized the most potent poison of the Tang Sect, so the position of Poison Gate Leader should be taken by one of you two."
"Not interested. Move aside," Dongfang Hao directly refused.
"Please wait a moment. We all witnessed your skills in using and neutralizing poison just now. The Ice Toad has already appeared at Toxic Ridge, and our strength is not comparable to yours. Therefore, we hope you two can accept this leader position and lead us to see the Toxic Ridge."
After hearing his words, Luo Bingbing couldn't help but think to herself, "You old man really wants to drag us into being your pawns. You must be tired of living. Don't even mention the Ice Toad, even if it were a Tianshan Snow Lotus, I wouldn't necessarily care."
Dongfang Hao, being the current emperor of the Silver Moon Kingdom and secretly the master of the Demon Palace, had seen all kinds of treasures, so he didn't take the so-called Ice Toad seriously at all.
Both of them treated the old man's words as if they were merely background noise and continued walking towards the main gate with Shadowless.
The old man saw them moving forward and wanted to say something again, but before he could start speaking, he heard Luo Bingbing's cold voice beside him.
She calmly said, "I don't like overly noisy people."
After saying this, she lightly raised her fair hand and casually waved it at the old man, who was immediately frozen in place.
The old man suddenly realized that he couldn't open his mouth or move his hands and feet, feeling very surprised and confused about what had happened to him.
Suddenly, he recalled what Luo Bingbing had just said, and he immediately understood that he had been manipulated by that Little One.
However, what puzzled him was that the Little One hadn't approached him at all; she was still in the embrace of that young master. How could she control him so easily?
After pondering for a while, he found himself utterly perplexed. However, he became even more certain that the Little One was incredibly powerful.
This elder was also a senior figure within the Poison Gate Alliance, quite well-known, so most people in the Poison Gate Alliance held him in high regard.
As a result, no one dared to voice opposition to his proposal.
After Luo Bingbing and the others left the Poison Gate Alliance, they did not immediately depart from the small town. Instead, they went to a restaurant under the Tiger Legion to have a meal, as it was just the right time for lunch.
Naturally, they dined in Luo Bingbing's exclusive courtyard. After lunch, Luo Bingbing instructed Shadowless and the others to stay there and wait for their return.
She then used her Ability to take Dongfang Hao to find Lo An Lord to understand the current situation of the battle and the specific strategic plans.
Lo An Lord had heard about their circumstances before and was very worried. Seeing both of them standing unharmed before him brought him immense joy.
The Golden Sun Kingdom's Jincheng and palace had already been destroyed by Dongfang Hao, and not only did it contain Emperor Murong Shang, but also many civil and military officials of the Golden Sun Kingdom. With their deaths, the Golden Sun Kingdom's army naturally fell apart.
Thus, although Rui Xi Wang was stationed in the Golden Sun Kingdom now, it could not form any significant threat. Moreover, this time they faced a dual assault from both the Silver Moon Kingdom and Mohan Kingdom.
Lo An Lord followed the strategies outlined in The Art of War that Luo Bingbing had given him to attack those cities of the Golden Sun Kingdom, maintaining an upper hand throughout.
However, many members of the Tiger Legion were also assisting in the battles.
Although the Silver Moon Kingdom's army consistently held an advantage, Dongfang Hao aimed to minimize casualties. He asked Lo An Lord to bring out a map so that the three of them could meticulously study and arrange each upcoming battle.
As for Murong Shang, they all believed he was dead; little did they know he was alive and well—just in a different world.
Indeed, after Murong Shang let out a loud cry at that moment, his soul left his body. However, it immediately transitioned into the Twenty-First Century and fortuitously attached itself to a young man named Murong Shang.
After Dongfang Hao and Luo Bingbing discussed several upcoming battles, Lo An Lord suggested calling all the generals together for a meeting.
Dongfang Hao immediately agreed after listening, and then they held a meeting together. However, Luo Bingbing did not attend.
She felt that they could handle those matters, so she took the newly awakened Snow Spirit Fox outside for a stroll and planned to roast some meat as a reward for it.
Just as they were about to look for wild game, Luo Bingbing suddenly heard Xuan Ye's call in her heart. Therefore, she quickly brought Snow Spirit Fox back to Spirit Mountain.
Since Snow Spirit Fox had shed too much blood earlier to help Luo Bingbing regain her memory, once they arrived at Spirit Mountain, Luo Bingbing immediately sent Snow Spirit Fox to the Bottom of the Cliff in the forbidden area to find some Spiritual Herbs and Spiritual Fruits to nourish itself.
As for herself, she went directly to find Xuan Ye. Upon seeing her, Xuan Ye calmly said, "Your great calamity has already passed, and the world must also undergo its final tribulation."
At first, she felt there was nothing significant about this statement, but after pondering it for a moment, Luo Bingbing realized that Xuan Ye had known about everything that had happened to her during this time.
Thus, she immediately said to Xuan Ye, "Master, isn't it a bit unkind of you to do this? Knowing I was in trouble but not giving me a heads-up? Aren't you afraid it might cost me my life?"
"Hehe, my dear disciple, the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. Besides, I knew you wouldn't be in any danger!"
"Alright, alright. Quickly tell me where the fifth Spirit Orb is located."
"You really can't be kept in the dark about anything!" Xuan Ye said with a smile.
Hearing this, Luo Bingbing rolled her eyes at him and said, "Did you ever come looking for me when you were free? So it's obvious what the answer is."
"Then why didn't you ask your Second Master?" Suddenly, the voice of Snow Spirit Elder came from outside.
Without turning her head, Luo Bingbing replied directly, "With your carefree life wandering around every day, do you still need me to worry about you?"
Upon hearing this, Snow Spirit Elder was displeased and immediately ran in front of Luo Bingbing, saying, "Child, aren't you being too unkind as a disciple? You should know that I'm getting old now."
"Second Master, do I need to remind you of our Spirit Mountain's rules? I remember there are several regarding how to respect the sect leader."
Snow Spirit Elder immediately responded after hearing her words, "No need, no need, I'll leave right away." As soon as he finished speaking, Snow Spirit Elder left the room.
Then, Xuan Ye quickly informed Luo Bingbing that the fifth Spirit Orb was located in the center of Toxic Ridge.
Upon hearing this, Luo Bingbing furrowed her brows and said, "How could it be in Toxic Ridge? That place is full of toxins! Master, you must be mistaken."
"With something this significant, how could I be wrong?" Xuan Ye retorted immediately.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Bingbing agreed and left the room to find Snow Spirit Fox at the Bottom of the Cliff in the forbidden area.
After locating Snow Spirit Fox, she gathered some Spiritual Herbs and Spiritual Fruits that could nourish the body before leaving.
Using her Ability, Luo Bingbing brought Snow Spirit Fox back to the military camp. When they arrived, Dongfang Hao and others were still in a meeting, so she took Snow Spirit Fox to find some game to roast.
Since it was a military camp with many people around, nearby animals had fled. After searching for a while, Luo Bingbing finally found a Marmot in a cave.
After roasting the Marmot, Luo Bingbing didn't eat any of it; she gave it all to Snow Spirit Fox.
It wasn't that she intentionally let Snow Spirit Fox eat; rather, she simply disliked eating rodent meat because she thought rodents carried many bacteria and were dirty, making it unappetizing for her.
Once Snow Spirit Fox finished eating, she immediately took it back to the military camp. Upon arrival, she saw Dongfang Hao waiting for her at the entrance.
Seeing that Luo Bingbing had returned, Dongfang Hao rushed over and asked directly, "Wife, where have you been?"
"I was just bored and took a walk. What's up?"
After hearing Luo Bingbing's words, Dongfang Hao replied, "It's nothing much; I was just worried since I didn't see you."
Nodding slightly, Luo Bingbing asked, "Have you finished your discussion?"
"Well, everything is set up."
"Then shall we go greet my father and head back?"
"Whatever you say, my wife!" After that, they went to see Lord Lo An. After chatting with him for a while, Luo Bingbing directly used her Ability to take Dongfang Hao back to the inn.
However, as soon as they returned, Shadowless reported to Luo Bingbing that members of the Poison Gate Alliance had found the inn and were insisting that she become their leader. They had sent people everywhere, and every inn on the street had someone watching.
"Ignore them..." Dongfang Hao began to speak but was interrupted by Luo Bingbing. "Wait a moment, I've decided to accept their offer to become the Poison Gate Leader."
Everyone was puzzled by her words. Dongfang Hao immediately asked, "Wife, you know their scheme; why would you agree to them?"
"Because I suspect things aren't that simple. Wherever Ice Toads appear, Fire Poison Insects and Charm Leeches are sure to follow. While Fire Poison Insects and Charm Leeches are treasures among poisons, they are also kings among medicines. So, I want to go to Toxic Ridge to look for Fire Poison Insects and Charm Leeches."
Upon hearing her words, everyone fell silent. Shadowless and the others naturally had no objections and would definitely follow Luo Bingbing.
Dongfang Hao, however, was deep in thought about what dangers they might encounter if Luo Bingbing insisted on going.
After everything that had happened recently, he had already decided in his heart that wherever Luo Bingbing went in the future, he would be by her side.
Therefore, after pondering for a moment, he directly told Luo Bingbing, "Wife, wherever you go, I will go too."
Upon hearing this, Luo Bingbing realized that Dongfang Hao intended to follow her. But she knew that what she had said earlier were just excuses!
She was fully aware that what she truly sought were Spirit Orbs, not the so-called Fire Poison Insects and Charm Leeches. Moreover, she knew how dangerous it was there; one misstep could cost her life.
Thus, she insisted that Dongfang Hao return to the palace to handle state affairs and ordered Mink to head back to Qi Wang Mansion in Mohan Kingdom immediately.
However, both of them already knew she planned to go to Toxic Ridge and refused to leave. They insisted on accompanying her and even declared that if Luo Bingbing tried to send them away forcefully, they would still head straight for Toxic Ridge.
Luo Bingbing indeed wanted to send them away directly, but after hearing their words, she feared that if she entered Toxic Ridge with them following, they might encounter danger. Therefore, she had no choice but to agree to bring them along.
Soon after, Luo Bingbing instructed Shadowless to summon the old man who had previously stopped them to the tavern and arranged for a regular private room to meet him.
Since Luo Bingbing had merely waved her hand casually and did not intend to target him specifically, the restrictions on the old man had already been lifted by that time.
After a while, Shadowless brought the old man into the private room of the tavern. When Luo Bingbing informed the old man that she was willing to become the leader of the Poison Gate Alliance, the old man was overjoyed.
He immediately gathered the members of the Poison Gate Alliance.
After informing everyone that Luo Bingbing was the leader of the Poison Gate Alliance, Luo Bingbing directly told them that her time was tight and those who wanted to go to Toxic Ridge with her needed to leave early the next morning.
That evening, Luo Bingbing specially prepared some antidotes and protective items for Dongfang Hao and the others to carry with them, ensuring everything would be foolproof.
Early the next morning, outside the tavern where Luo Bingbing and her group were staying stood hundreds of people. They were all members of the Poison Gate Alliance, some from major sects and others were greedy nameless individuals.
However, their purpose was the same: to follow Luo Bingbing to Toxic Ridge in search of the Ice Toad.
When Dongfang Hao and Luo Bingbing emerged and saw so many people, they couldn't help but frown. But in an instant, Luo Bingbing's expression relaxed.
Indeed, she thought of a way to discreetly shake off these people.
Luo Bingbing slightly curled her lips into a mischievous smile and calmly said to everyone, "The leader's time is very tight, so if you want to go, you must hurry up. Whether you can keep up depends on yourselves."
After saying this, she turned to Dongfang Hao and said, "Honey, let's hurry up!"
Upon hearing her words, Dongfang Hao nodded slightly. Then Luo Bingbing snapped her fingers, and at the sound, Shadowless and An Ruo Ran immediately followed suit.
With so many people around, it was easy for poisonous attacks and group assaults to occur. Therefore, for safety's sake, Luo Bingbing and Dongfang Hao quickly ran forward with An Ruo Ran and the others.
The people within the Poison Gate Alliance naturally could not match the power of those few, so they were quickly left behind.
However, there were a few elders who managed to stay within a few hundred meters behind them.
Without needing to think, Luo Bingbing knew that those elders were the most skilled fighters in the Poison Gate Alliance, and her intention was to lead them into Toxic Ridge.
Therefore, Luo Bingbing deliberately slowed down their speed.
When they reached the entrance at the outer edge of Toxic Ridge, they stopped to rest and fill their stomachs. After they had eaten, the few elders from the Poison Gate Alliance arrived before them.
Thus, they immediately got up and headed straight for the entrance of Toxic Ridge.
Not long after entering, they saw countless centipedes crawling all over the ground, densely packed and seemingly poisonous. Fortunately, there were no centipedes on the nearby trees.
So, they quickly used their Lightness Skill to fly up onto the branches and passed through that area filled with centipedes.
However, the last tree in the centipede area was a dead tree with no leaves at all. For experts like Luo Bingbing and her companions who excelled in Lightness Skill, stepping over that dead tree posed no problem.
But for the slightly weaker elders, it was a bit challenging.
Just then, the few elders closely following Shadowless were very cautious as they crossed that dead tree. However, when the last elder attempted to cross, the branch he stepped on suddenly snapped with a loud "crack."
He fell down in panic, forgetting to gather his energy and only shouting for help.
At his cry, the centipedes below began to stir. Even on the dead tree they had just crossed, many centipedes appeared, crawling out from where the branch had broken off.
Hearing his shout, everyone turned to look and saw him about to fall into a pile of centipedes. The elders couldn't help but show expressions of regret, but none of them made a move to save him.
Just when everyone thought he was doomed, Luo Bingbing used her Ability to pull him back, saving his life.
The elderly man, who had just walked on the edge of death, immediately knelt before Luo Bingbing and said sincerely, "I thank the Alliance Leader for saving my life. If you have any commands in the future, I will face any danger, even if it means climbing a mountain of knives or walking through a sea of fire, and I will definitely accomplish it."
With just one glance, Luo Bingbing knew that she had not "saved" the wrong person; she could entrust the management of the Poison Gate Alliance to him in the future.
Hehe, the branch had not suddenly broken; it was deliberately snapped by Luo Bingbing. The reason was that she wanted to test the people within the Poison Gate Alliance.
At this moment, the dead tree was already crawling with centipedes. Upon hearing Luo Bingbing and the others talking, they quickly descended from the tree and made their way toward their location.
Dongfang Hao saw those centipedes crawling towards them and immediately turned to Luo Bingbing, saying, "Wife, this place is not safe. We should leave quickly!"
Thus, they swiftly departed from there and moved forward.
An hour later, they arrived at the foot of a large mountain. Just as they were about to ascend, a series of "creaking" sounds suddenly echoed around them.
Hearing this sound, everyone felt their scalps tingle and goosebumps rise all over their bodies.
