The green light became increasingly stronger whereas the light around the artifact became so bright that it was slightly blinding. Even the Underworld that was initially a sea of darkness seemed to be painted and was swiftly returning to a green color. Mu Xiang’s appearance grew worse as she struggled with all her might like a madman, wanting to stop the artifact but she couldn’t reach it no matter what. Instead, she was covered with cuts and bruises from the impact of the green original source.

　　“Stop! Stop!” She gritted her teeth, activated all the black original source around her and charged forward without any care.

　　Chao Kun’s expression darkened, instantly taking the chance to manifest multiple spirit swords to attack her. But Mu Xiang ignored his attacks, stretching out her torn and bloody arm, she even sped up, fighting against the danger of being stabbed by the swords, about to touch the artifact.

　　Yet another hand reached out from the side and picked it up before her. A figure suddenly appeared in the middle, at the same time, the spirit swords that Chao Kun manifested seemed to have met some obstruction and vanished.

　　Shen Ying glanced at the green little ball in her hands, her eyes narrowed, closing her hand around it, that overwhelming green light instantly dimmed down, even the green original force that had been continuously changing below stopped, as if a pause button had been pushed.

　　“M… Madam?!” Chao Kun faltered, looking at Shen Ying who was midair in disbelief. “Why are you doing this?”

　　It was Mu Xiang who reacted first, without the suppression of the green light, the black Qi in her body surged, as if she was seeing red, she raised her sword and slashed it towards Shen Ying who was the closest to her without any hesitation. All these invaders deserved death!

　　“Master!” Yi Qing who was a step slower was shocked.

　　Just as he was about to act, he saw Shen Ying suddenly stretch out a finger, with a series of cracks, the sword in the other party’s hands broke inch by inch, before she reached her palm, the sword had already been reduced to ashes.

　　Mu Xiang could not rein herself in in time and could only watch as the finger went directly to her forehead. In moments, the energy surrounding her dissipated, unable to gather anymore, the black Qi dispersed too, revealing her original form.

　　Her heart sank, she lifted her arms wanting to continue her attacks, but she could not use any strength at all and could only throw empty punches in the air. Her figure was also shorter than Shen Ying and ended being completely blocked by her one finger. Her arms wasn’t long enough to hit her and her hands could only draw circles in the air.

　　The scene became amusing at once going from a high-end Challenger-ranked match between managers to a Bronze-ranked match of a fight between kids.

　　Yi Qing who rushed over: “…”

　　Lonemoon who was watching the show this whole time: “…”

　　Was Shen Ying giving her all in humiliating her because she finally found someone shorter than her! How disgraceful, why would a shortie make things difficult for a shortie?

　　“Let me go! Let me go!” Mu Xiang’s anger heightened, as she stared fixedly at Shen Ying. “All of you detestable invaders!”

　　“Oh.” Shen Ying paused for a moment and said with her head cocked to one side. “I’m not grabbing onto you.”

　　Mu Xiang frozen then seemed to realize then, she’d only been blocked from moving forward, she hadn’t been caught and wanted to shift back with a turn.

　　The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched as he followed closely behind, setting up an array with a wave of his hand, dense Sword Qi instantly trapped Mu Xiang who had just came back to her senses in the same spot. “Now you’re caught!”

　　-_-|||

　　Was it that every person who fought against Shen Ying would see a drop in their IQ?

　　Mu Xiang wanted to run, but it was already too late, she wanted to break out of the Sword Qi but realized it was completely futile, her body was empty, she could not activate a shred of her powers at all. She paled at once, and looked at Shen Ying in front of her in disbelief. “What have you done to me?!” She was still in the plane, why wasn’t she able to use her powers, on top of that, all her connections to the original source seemed to be cut off.

　　“Just making it convenient for us to have a good talk.” Shen Ying replied and habitually pulled out a fruit, taking a bite of it before saying, “Let us talk for one fruit’s time!”

　　“All of you deserve to die!” Her expression became even more insane, she’d no intention of communicating at all, only her gaze was fixed on the green ball artifact in Shen Ying’s other hand.

　　“You like it?” Shen Ying clutched the little ball and handed it over. “You can have it!”

　　“…” Mu Xiang faltered, even resentment on her face stiffened for a moment.

　　“Madam!” Chao Kun also rushed over from below, glancing at Mu Xiang who was trapped, a trace of joy flashed across his eyes as he hurriedly bowed to them with cupped fists. “Thank you all for your righteous help, this plane can finally be saved now.”

　　“Don’t be too quick to thank us.” Lonemoon turned his body to the side to dodge his bow and said with a smile, “Whether we’re helping you or not, it’s still uncertain?”

　　His expression froze for a moment before he immediately resumed a lost look, his gaze sweeping across the green ball in Shen Ying’s hands. “Sir Lonemoon’s words… what do you mean?”

　　“We just feel that it seems like there are some things you haven’t explained clearly to us, for example…” Lonemoon’s smile grew wider as he turned to look at the person in the sword array. “The matters regarding her.”

　　Chao Kun’s face paled for a second, a hint of panic flashed across, as if he didn’t know how to answer that.

　　Instead, Mu Xiang at the side suddenly snickered out loud. “Hahaha… turns out you didn’t tell them at all, about all those things you did. Chao Kun, you’re indeed still as despicable as you were in the past.”

　　“Shut up!” Chao Kun’s gaze sharpened, killing intent surfaced in his eyes instantly.

　　“Why? Have I said anything wrong?” Mu Xiang laughed even more impudent but a desolate emotion showed in her eyes. “Why didn’t you tell them, how you came to this plane and how you snatched this plane from my hands step by step!”

　　Snatched the plane?

　　All three of them were stunned and turned towards Chao Kun together.

　　If that’s the case, Mu Xiang was the original manager of this plane? No wonder she had the aura of a manager on her. They’d thought she was like the invader who invaded Chef’s plane, used to be the manager of another plane. They didn’t expect that she belonged to this plane?

　　But Chao Kun was indeed a manager too, how did two managers appear in one plane?

　　A trace of panic flashed through Chao Kun’s eyes as he immediately retorted. “This was all the choice of the plane’s consciousness, the one that this plane chose was me.”

　　“Bullsh*t!” The fury in Mu Xiang’s eyes rose as she kept her eyes fixed on him, as if she wished to swallow him whole. “You think I couldn’t tell, you came to get the powers of a manager right from the start but did not have the qualifications to earn the acknowledgment of the plane’s consciousness. That was why you wiped out all the living creatures in this world and forcefully changed the original source. If it wasn’t so, how was it possible for you to become the manager!”

　　Chao Kun’s expression darkened as the killing intent around him surged. He directly rebutted. “Don’t forget that the truth behind the annihilation and rebirth of the world, was you yourself.”

　　“Shut up!” Mu Xiang’s eyes went blood red at once, seeming like blood was about to drip out. “You still have the cheek to mention the world annihilation. It was you who opened the plane gate and allowed all those invaders from Big Dao Organization to enter and and destroyed everything as they pleased, leading me to think that the plane was close to collapse, that was why I rushed to retract the original source.” Living creatures of the world were all born from the original source, retracting it was equivalent to annihilating the world.
