Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up

"I have no interest in killing you. We have no personal vendetta, and you're merely doing your duty by confronting me. Now your Power of Laws is temporarily ineffective.

You have been defeated by me. I hope we can make peace. Can you tell me the way to leave this place, and we shall end it here?

If you agree, let's settle it. If not, we shall continue fighting. I can completely eradicate your soul; don't assume I lack the means to do so.

Zhao Yi stood in mid-air, coldly staring down at Shi Wangxian as if he were a Celestial God. Shi Wangxian nodded upon hearing this.

He could already feel the powerful killing intent from Zhao Yi, understanding that this guy wasn't joking. However, he just chuckled fearlessly.

"I know what you are saying, and I am aware that you can do it. Yet, to me, failing is no different than dying, so you can kill me,

but to get the Underworld's exit from me is absolutely impossible.

I can't kill you, but I can trap you here for a lifetime."

After saying these words, Shi Wangxian burst into a burst of wild laughter. Seeing this, Zhao Yi didn't prolong the talk. He immediately transformed the flowing water into a Water Dragon, passing directly through Shi Wangxian's body.

Shi Wangxian gradually disappeared, and the Underworld began to shake uncontrollably. The shaking grew more intense; some structures started to collapse, with cracks appearing even in the sky. The Nine Dragon Jade Seal exclaimed loudly at this sight.

"Look at the sky. I feel like we should be able to get back to the surface if we follow that crack."

Zhao Yi thought the same, so even before the Nine Dragon Jade Seal finished its words, Zhao Yi was already shooting towards the crack in the sky like a meteor.

As they rushed into the crack, the surroundings immediately turned dark. Zhao Yi and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal quickly adapted to the dim light, discovering they seemed to be in an endless abyss.

Feeling utterly helpless, the Nine Dragon Jade Seal was slightly terrified, thinking they might have fallen into a new trap and suggested that Zhao Yi retreat.

To find a new way out, but Zhao Yi was resolute that this path was correct. He ignored the Nine Dragon Jade Seal's reminders and disregarded the surrounding darkness.

He kept charging upwards with closed eyes. In his mind, no matter how boundless or unfathomable this place seemed.

It couldn't possibly be endless like the Cosmos. He continued this relentless ascent for nearly half an hour when Zhao Yi suddenly noticed a glimmer of light above. Thrilled, Zhao Yi knew he had bet correctly this time. He immediately accelerated, and within fifteen minutes, they were very close to the light source.

Zhao Yi unhesitatingly charged into the light source, accompanied by a flash of white light, and felt as if he had broken through some form of Binding. When he opened his eyes,

he realized they had indeed emerged from the Underworld, but the surroundings were completely different from what they had seen before.

Before them lay a forest, with towering trees and occasional eerie cries echoing through.

"I didn't expect we'd end up here, but now we don't know how far this place is from the river we're searching for. How about we ascend to have a look?"

Zhao Yi thought the Nine Dragon Jade Seal's suggestion was good, so they ascended into mid-air to observe. The forest stretched endlessly as far as the eye could see.

This brought a hint of disappointment to Zhao Yi. Initially, he intended to fly above the forest to observe it and also see if they could find new land.

But as they reached above the forest, Zhao Yi's ability to fly suddenly vanished, causing him to plummet directly towards the ground. Only then did Zhao Yi realize this forest was cursed.

Fortunately, with his formidable strength, Zhao Yi managed to land stably after a few flips, looking at this unfathomable forest, he remarked.

"It seems we will have to walk through this forest on foot. This forest stretches endlessly, and who knows how many days it will take."

Zhao Yi sighed, but he didn't immediately rush into battles in the Underworld, which had already consumed much of his Spiritual Energy.

And now, his Spiritual Energy recovery was becoming increasingly slow. This made Zhao Yi realize that perhaps he was getting closer to that river.

After all, that river affects all laws, and as he got nearer, his connection with the New World would weaken as well.

After sharing his thoughts, Zhao Yi received acknowledgment from the Nine Dragon Jade Seal, who also agreed with this perspective. Yet neither was afraid.

At this point, there was no possibility of retreat. After resting on the spot for nearly half an hour,

the two of them began to enter the forest.

After nearly an hour, a scene in front of them stunned Zhao Yi and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal. What appeared before them were many wooden figures.

These figures looked almost like living humans, with delicate features and bright, piercing eyes. The Nine Dragon Jade Seal commented.

"Do you think these might have been living humans turned into this state by some formidable force?

If that's true, we need to be extra cautious. To reach this far, I feel they must be strong, potentially no weaker than you, Master."

"While your words might slightly underrate your master, they make sense. We should indeed be vigilant."

As Zhao Yi spoke, he carefully watched his surroundings but did not find anything unusual, which set his mind slightly at ease.

Zhao Yi originally planned to bypass the wooden figures through another path, but even after nearly fifteen minutes, the wooden figures kept appearing. Zhao Yi finally gave up.

Deciding to weave through the wooden figures, they walked for nearly half a tea's time and reached the center of the wooden figures.

At this moment, some wooden figures' eyes began to move, and their bodies gradually came to life, but Zhao Yi and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal remained oblivious.

The two were still cautiously moving forward when suddenly, Zhao Yi felt a gust of wind pass behind him, and he turned to look.

But saw nothing amiss, and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal spoke at this moment.

"Master, perhaps you should watch the front while I discreetly keep an eye on the rear, so if something abnormal occurs, we can alert each other immediately."

"That's a good idea, let's do that. Why didn't I think of it earlier? I suspect these wooden figures won't just sit idly here.

From my understanding of the origins, these guys might very well attack us, so you need to be extra cautious."

As Zhao Yi reminded the Nine Dragon Jade Seal, he quickened his pace. Just as Zhao Yi passed between two wooden figures, they suddenly launched an attack, with both hands striking directly at Zhao Yi's ribs on either side.

Their hands moved swiftly and were extremely sharp. Zhao Yi evaded, and when their hands clashed together, it generated a massive shockwave.
