The spirit fox Xiaobai, moving like a flash of white lightning, stepped upon a trail of flowing light and descended from the sky, landing steadily on the ground. Right behind her closely followed Mo Xing, dressed in black robes.
"Brother!" Xiaobai cried out excitedly, then shook her little head and gave her nose a slight twitch. A faint aura of primal chaos immediately drifted into her senses. Her eyes instantly widened into round circles, and she stared at Hu Yuan with sheer disbelief, saying, "Did you guys really seal away the remnant soul of the Lord of the Demon Abyss? When I ran into Mo Xing earlier, I was worried you might end up at a disadvantage, so I rushed over here ahead of time!"
Mo Xing's gaze, meanwhile, fell upon the Hunyuan Creation Furnace to the side. The Taotie patterns carved across the cauldron's surface had already grown still, with only a faint golden radiance circulating over them, clearly indicating that the seal had stabilized. He reached out a finger, tapped lightly against the Jade Talisman at his waist, and then turned to look at Hu Yuan, saying, "I received news from a friend along the way. Those cultivators who had been bewitched by the Demon Lord's remnant soul are now scattering. It seems this furnace seal has truly severed the root of the trouble."
