Hua Ruge had long since received the news of the following actions, and thus leisurely lived in his own prison.

Because of the decline in faith, Huo Xi had no choice but to expand the shrine even more. This also caused the number of experts in the core of the western territory to decrease, and the dispersion becoming more and more severe.

Huo Xi knew that this would be disadvantageous for her, but other than this, she didn't have a better way.

Facing the rapid development of Jun Tianxia and the others, she could not sit still and wait for death.

Now, what the two competed in was speed.

Whoever can be the first to have an overwhelming bargaining chip will become the final winner.

Hua Ruge didn't feel the slightest amount of pressure in his heart. He only spent his days in jail refining and training his own strength.

With the great battle approaching, she also properly increased the pace of her cultivation.

Another month passed, and the disciples that were recruited by the sect gradually forgot all about the Light God, thus the divine hall began to gather more and more faith energy, causing Huo Xi to be troubled.

But that was not the end of it. Previously, Jun Tianxia's western border had not been touched at all, but now, he had sealed off some of the disciples who worshipped the Divine Sect and escaped from the control of the Light God.

Huo Xi hoped that the newly built shrine would bring hope, but Young Master Wu Hen and Jun Tianxia had teamed up and caused small damage.

Either the Spirit Stones weren't in place to delay the construction of the shrine, or there were various problems with the materials during the construction. In short, the efficiency was not even one tenth of what it was before.

After all, the current situation was different from the past. The main force of the Light God Palace had been scattered to the point where it was unrecognizable.

This way, the amount of faith energy he had left was pitifully small. Huo Xi spent his time receiving reports from his subordinates, saying that it was Young Master Wu Hen and Jun Tianxia who had gone against his wishes.

Of course she knew this, but now that she was in their hands, she couldn't do anything to them.

Huo Yun and the other radical elders had repeatedly suggested using Hua Ruge as a threat. After all, this was the reason they caught Hua Ruge and brought him back.

Huo Xi thought again and again, but didn't agree. Instead, he instructed: "Strengthen the defense of the prison, don't let her escape."

"Your Highness, what do you mean by this?" Huo Yun didn't understand. He had a violent temper, and ever since Huo Yu's death, he became even more extreme.

"Now that the initiative is in their hands, even if we warn them once, they will only do it on the surface. It's useless." Huo Xi squinted: "But if the day of the war really comes, with Hua Ruge on our hands, we will be able to influence the entire battle."

Since this matter was related to Hua Ruge's life and death, she did not believe that those two people would not be moved at all.

Huo Yun thought for a moment before replying, "Holy Maiden is wise, it was this subordinate who did not think it through."

"Go down, I ask Elder Hua Ruge, who is watching over us, to take care of us." Huo Xi said, his voice did not have much of a ripple.

After the fire cloud left, Huo Xi sat down below the altar and started cultivating, absorbing a bit of the power of faith.

After they left, Huo Yun explained his plan to the other elders. Only then did these people understand the deep meaning behind his words.

Even so, Huo Yun was unable to swallow his anger. The Holy Maiden said that he could not use her as a threat. It would always make her suffer.

She was living too comfortably these days.

That day, Hua Ruge was drinking afternoon tea in an empty area outside the prison. There were also three female prisoners and three female prison guards who were with her.

She sat in the middle, looking like a big sister.

When Huo Yun walked in, he saw this scene. He had long heard that Hua Ruge was living a good life in prison, but after taking over from Huo Yu, he was extremely busy as well.

This glance almost made him spit blood. Was this a criminal? He was simply an ancestor, alright?

When the guard saw that Huo Yun had brought people over, he immediately knelt down. He had been caught red-handed and had nothing to say.2

The other prisoners felt the dense killing intent and knelt down as well.

Only Hua Ruge was still leaning on the chair, throwing half of the pastry in his hand into his mouth, and said unclearly: "Elder Huo Yun, long time no see, how have you been?"

"What do you think? You killed my brother. " The sharp gaze of the fire cloud landed on her body.

Hua Ruge ate some pastries and took a sip of tea before saying: "Speaking of which, I really do have a responsibility that I cannot shirk from."

"You still dare to say that?"

"I've always been a man who dares to take responsibility for his actions. I admit that I was a bit impulsive at the time." Hua Ruge continued: "But he was wrong before that, and touched my reverse scale."

"Just because he said something wrong?"

"It concerns my man. There's no small matter. If you don't believe me, just say it. I can impulsively show it to you right now." Hua Ruge raised her eyebrow, although she had a smile in her eyes, her tone was not polite.

Even now, she knew that she had acted on impulse, but if something like this were to happen again, her choice would not change.

Huo Yun said angrily, "Hua Ruge, you're too arrogant."

"I'm a very low-key person. If you don't provoke me, I'd rather eat and drink than be bothered by you." Hua Ruge said in disdain.

Hearing this, Huo Yun had already drawn his sword with a flip of his hand. His entire body was filled with hostility.

Hua Ruge squinted his eyes and asked: "You want to fight?"

"He deserves to be taught a lesson." The red sword released a sharp red Sword Qi, as if it wanted to hack Hua Ruge into two.

With Hua Ruge's strength, he naturally wouldn't be able to face a ranker of this level. Previously, he had to rely on the Young Master Wu Hen's Time Divine Ability in order to gain the upper hand.

But that didn't mean she couldn't.

The prison space was sealed, so she could not use the Space Divine Abilities. She could only quickly dodge, and then flip her hand to take out the Sky City.

"Boom!"

The entire courtyard was covered by the city. The artifact spirit attacked first, and by the time the fiery cloud managed to react, it was already in the great formation.

Hua Ruge stood on top of the city wall and looked down at the fiery clouds with leisure.

It wasn't that the Fire Cloud didn't think of using treasures, but thinking about the last time he was afraid of the Nether Emperor's pagoda, it seemed like he could only fight head on against it.

"Hua Ruge, if you have the ability, fight me." He tried to goad her.

Hua Ruge blinked, and pointed to himself. "Do you think I'm stupid? Let alone being unable to defeat him, even if he can, why would he use a magic tool to fight me? "

"You're despicable!" Huo Yun said angrily.

However, he didn't have a chance to say anything else. The great formation had already activated. The artifact spirit that had just absorbed Huo Yu's life essence became more and more solid, and its strength also became stronger.

When the fire cloud touched the array, it became uncertain. He had never thought that Hua Ruge would have such a trump card, he was never prepared for it at all.

There was even less of a need to talk about the people he brought with him. In the instant that the large formation enveloped the area, they were already strangled to death, becoming the nourishment of the Sky City.
