In the Mortal Hex Emperor Purple Palaceʼs topmost floorʼs entrance stood three women wearing purple, red, and golden robes. Behind them, many women had also gathered, but their faces had one thing in common: anxiety.

”These Vacuous Beasts…” Evelynn moved her lips, her purple eyes looking into the distance where all the savage beasts were being led to by Davis, ”… their powers are all at Level One Immortal Beast Stage...”

”Logic says that he would be fine, and I believe so as well, but there are just… too many...”

”How can there be so many of these Vacuous Beasts…?”

Isabella and Shirley voiced out with a tone sounding full of worry. They couldnʼt believe that hundreds of immortals were in their view, chasing their husband with a bloodthirsty aura.

*Roarr!!!~*

Abruptly, a few Vacuous Beasts that had been stranded or failed to notice Davisʼs undulations descended on the Alstreim Family, their wide mouth roaring at the powerhouses of the Alstreim Family.

”Evelynn, take care of everyone.”

”Protect Eterna and Celestia.”

”Will do.”

Isabella and Shirley flew into the skies as Evelynn answered without missing a beat. The dragon and the phoenix shot towards the distance, their undulations blazing with intensity to attract the Vacuous Beasts.

They were still several thousand kilometers away but were appearing from three different directions.

Isabella shot towards a grayish dragon that was heading towards the Grand Alstreim City while Shirley did the same, targeting a grayish phoenix. All four of their undulations blared with contention, attracting the otherʼs attention.

*Fiiiii!~*

The air whistled as Isabella shot through the skies. She clenched her fists and unleashed her draconic might at the grayish dragon before their encounter, causing it to violently tumble back from the immense air pressure.

However, a long tail came crashing towards her, intending to smash her to death.

Earth Dragonʼs undulations appeared around Isabella as her skin became covered in brownish-golden scales. Her cultivation reached the Peak-Level Martial Overlord Stage, brimming with immense earth-shuddering might. Once she unleashed her fist, she didnʼt stop her momentum but flipped her body, using her long leg to stomp the incoming tail!

*Bang!!!~*

A large chunk of the grayish dragon exploded into pieces, severing into two at the end.

Isabella didnʼt stop advancing, heading towards its dragon head as her Supreme Immortal Crest imbued her Body Tempering Cultivation with overwhelming martial energy. The moment she neared it while the grayish dragon hadnʼt managed to regain its balance yet, she kicked its flailing large dragon head, causing it to explode into a sea of black blood!

In the distance, Shirley rose towards the descending phoenix, her figure becoming covered in blazing scarlet phoenix flames. Her Peak-Level Law Rune Stage undulations flared as it directly converged upon the descending grayish phoenix, trying to lock it down when Shirley waved her two hands.

*Shhh!~*

Waves of scarlet flames shot towards the grayish phoenix, engulfing its face and body while also igniting its three hundred-meter-long wings in an instant. Its entire body was set ablaze, especially its bird head. A furious breeze of scarlet flames erupted into the skies, completely burning the grayish phoenix in a few seconds as it ignited the air.

The black blood seemingly evaporated into thin air, leaving behind a putrid stench. However, Shirley didnʼt pay mind to it, storing the remains in her spatial ring, while Isabella did the same as she surrounded the black blood with her martial energy and made an earthly container out of it to preserve the blood.

Nonetheless, once Isabella and Shirley finished the two Vacuous Beasts at the same time, they turned to look towards a four-hundred-meter-tall grayish tiger heading towards the Grand Alstreim City. Moreover, it seemed to have its bloodthirsty eyes on the Mortal Hex Emperor Purple Palace!

Just as they shot back to the Mortal Hex Emperor Purple Palace with vague unease, Evelynn stepped out of the entrance, flying into the air as she turned to look at the savage grayish tiger that was drooling with its mouth agape and its giant and bloody fangs barred.

*Roar!!!~*

It detected Evelynnʼs surging undulations, its gaze falling on her as it let out a provocative roar but in the next moment, her forehead split, revealing a terrifying third eye that shone with a crimson hue.

*Bang!!!~*

The grayish tiger exploded into a mist of black blood!

Its entire body exploded in an instant despite its massive size, creating a momentous scene for the people below. Fortunately, the grayish tiger hadnʼt entered the Grand Alstreim City yet, so the lake of black blood fell on a mountain peak in the distance, constantly corroding that area.

The Alstreim Family peopleʼs gaze moved from that dead Vacuous Beast to the purple-robed woman who unleashed that terrifying move, not to mention the two others who took down the other two Vacuous Beasts. They recognized them as the Emperor of Deathʼs wives, the Hex Demoness, Earth Dragon Queen, and the Burning Phoenix Ridgeʼs Top Disciple. However, their eyes were wide as saucers, wondering how they were so strong.

They didnʼt exude immortal undulations like their immortal ancestor who had just left into the distance, so how could they, as mortals, defeat immortals? The young women in particular didnʼt dare believe what they were seeing, wondering how there could be so much of a gap between them.

Evelynn, Isabella, and Shirley returned to the entrance while the eyes of the other sisters shined as they noticed that Isabella and Shirley had entered the peak for their main cultivation systems while Evelynn had created a Supreme Immortal Rune for her Essence Gathering Cultivation!

They heard she received a manual called the Unshackled Vicious Poison Canon from the immortal inheritance she won, allowing her to create a Rune!

Suddenly, Isabella appeared hesitant.

”Just what exactly are these Vacuous Beasts? Theyʼre kinda… hollow…?”

Shirley nodded her head, ”Theyʼre pretty dumb too, not quickly attacking and not defending at all, but there are supposed to be dragons and phoenixes among them?”

Her tone had a hint of mocking, causing Evelynn to narrow her brows.

”I donʼt think so, although they might have retained the uniqueness of the species. We donʼt know much about Vacuous Beasts to remain unbothered in front of them, so be careful when you encounter one and donʼt ever underestimate them.”

”Understood, big sis~” Both Isabella and Shirley cooed while Evelynn smiled.

”At the moment, there seem to be no Vacuous Beasts in the distance as husband took them away but be careful. Two of us should go give him assistance.”

”Iʼll help.”

Lea strode forward, looking at the three of them.

Evelynn, Isabella, and Shirley turned their heads towards Lea, knowing that she could withstand the might of the Vacuous Beasts just as much as them. But still, only Isabella and Shirley were strong enough to deal with the other dangers.

”Shirley, you go assist Davis with Lea.” Isabella abruptly spoke up, ”Iʼll stay and help Evelynn defend.”

”Alright.” Shirley didnʼt reject the plan as she nodded, ”Fortunately, the defensive spirit formation Myria set up is still working. Even if these dumb beasts somehow make the two of you busy outside, they wonʼt be able to destroy the palace unless many swarmed here!”

”Thatʼs right.”

Evelynn assured them with a bright smile, causing Shirley and Lea to take off. Their figures leaped into the air as they rushed off into the distance like blazing stars.

”Lea, you canʼt be thinking of heading to the Burning Phoenix Ridge, right?”

”…!”

As they rushed, Shirley opened her mouth, causing Leaʼs eyes to tremble. Looking at that reaction, Shirley lightly sighed.

”Lea, I understand your emotions as Iʼm also a part of the Burning Phoenix Ridge, but the others like Tanya, Dalila, Bylai, and perhaps even Iesha also want to protect their powers for the time they lived in it. If all of you went out in order to protect your powers, which is good and admirable, how can husband keep you all safe? Heʼs already taking on so many beasts out there...”

”I... understand... but now I actually have the strength to-”

Lea tried to reason, but Shirley shook her head.

”Have you forgotten about the warning husband gave us to be wary of other immortals? Immortal Alstreim Windstorm just followed Davis, so who knows what heʼs doing or what the other immortals are planning in this time of crisis? Even if you take them out of place, how many Vacuous Beasts could you take on at the same time? The consumption of energy is heavy on us, taking an immense toll on our stamina. Iʼm more worried about him than our sect.”

”…”

”Sect Master, I know itʼs cruel, but Iʼve made my choice. It is up to you to make yours.”

”…” Lea pursed her lips, her heart becoming heavy.

Last time, they somehow managed to save the Burning Phoenix Ridge from the wicked path immortals, but this time, it seems that she must prepare for its demise. As its Sect Master, that very scenario made her body quiver like a pillar without foundation.

Even after becoming able to battle against immortals while still being a mortal, she still couldnʼt defend her sect?

”But no matter your choice, I wonʼt blame you until your actions place Davis in jeopardy, so letʼs join him first.”

Shirley grinned as she winked at Lea, causing the latterʼs lips to quiver.

”Shirley…”

Wasnʼt this like saying that she could go save the Burning Phoenix Ridge as long as they confirmed Davis could defend himself?

Just as she smiled brightly and wanted to thank her disciple for her support, she turned her head to the front and abruptly stopped as she saw the scene in front of her, her lips parting agape.

Shirleyʼs eyes were also wide, unable to believe the scene in front of her. She was at the edge of the Alstreim Family Territory, meaning that the Territory Fog would block them. However, there was nothing from the surface to five hundred meters above.

The Territory Fog was… disappearing, slowly but surely as though it was evaporating into the clouds.
