"YOU've forgotten? In order to exterminate Gu Wei forever, the black jade ring had to be destroyed. All of these artifact rings must be collected at the same time and destroyed at the same time as well." Hyou thought if Qing Mao forgot, so she told him again.
Qing Mao was still confused. It felt like there was something empty in his heart when the ring was removed. Even Gu Yihao and Han Baimo also took off their respective rings, giving them to Hyou.
While at this time, Chou controlled the sealing totem circle. His face was a little pale. Every second, the spiritual energy in his body was wasted. Making Han Baimo also not in a good state.
Chou finally entered the sealing totem circle and approached Gu Wei who was now entangled by spiritual ropes. He removed the black jade ring from Gu Wei's finger.
"No!! You can't take my ring! Chou! Give me back the ring!" Gu Wei roared, trying his hardest to break away. But every time he tried, his body would be in pain and hot.
The light coming down from the dark cloud vortex in the sky made it seem like it was being tormented thousands of times by various things.
Gu Wei saw that his black jade ring was in Chou's hand, his body started to fidget.
Chou exited the sealing totem circle and gave the ring to Hyou.
Now, the four jade artifact rings had been gathered together. All of them emitted a faint light corresponding to the color of their respective jade.
At this moment, Han Baimo took out another old scroll from the pocket in her brocade robe and gave it to Hyou.
"This time I trust you" he said to the man.
"Thank you." Hyou muttered to him.
The restless Gu Wei began to know what their purpose was. It turned out to want to destroy the black jade ring. However, if the black jade ring was destroyed, the other three rings would also be destroyed and lose function.
Thinking of their crazy plan, Gu Wei felt like he did not understand the human mind. Especially Chou and Hyou who live as guardian spirits, why so obey humans?
"Are you crazy? You want to destroy me? Hyou, Chou, you two are the same as me. Equally the guardian spirit entrusted the first master. Why are you so eager to protect humans who have greed and cruelty of their own kind??!" shouted Gu Wei.
He gritted his teeth, helpless. He admitted at this time he had been cornered and it was very difficult to turn the situation around.
"You're different from us. You are too dark and filled with hatred towards humans that master feels regret for creating the jade ring. Now, let me fulfill first master's wish for world peace in the future," Hyou explained.
The first master that he and Gu Wei meant was of course the maker of the artifact ring.
"It turns out, for the sake of humans, you would rather sacrifice yourself than kill them! Goody! Very nice! You are so, I want to give you the greatest gift. I want to bring you guys together sealed with me!" Gu Wei's voice was a little hoarse.
From Gu Wei's body, black spiritual energy exploded irregularly. This burst of spiritual energy did not destroy the sealing totem circle but intended to suck up everything living around it.
His goal was to suck on Gu Yihao, Qing Mao and also Han Baimo.
Gu Yihao hugged Qing Mao and held himself back from being pulled by the black spiritual energy that Gu Wei had attached. It was like Gu Wei had used the remnants of his strength to make the final move.
Han Baimo also tried to restrain himself from being sucked into the middle of the sealing totem circle.
But here, the one who was most shocked was Qing Mao. His ears are a little bit buzzing. What did Gu Wei mean? Hyou and Chou sacrificed themselves to destroy the black jade ring and seal Gu Wei?
Didn't Hyou say everything would be fine?
Then why is it like this?
"Hyou, tell me, you'll be fine right? You're not going to disappear, are you?" ask that man.
Hyou looked at Qing Mao with a friendly smile like the first time she met him. There was a look of regret on his face.
"Sorry, I've been lying to you all this time. Actually, in order to seal and destroy Gu Wei, we also had to sacrifice ourselves. After all, we were created together and will die together in the end."
The man unfolded the scroll Han Baimo had given him earlier and began to recite a special spell.
But Qing Mao shook her head. His eyes began to turn red and his tears dropped. He wanted to let go of Gu Yihao's embrace and prevent Hyou from doing everything.
"Mao'er, please, don't be like this," whispered Gu Yihao as well a little choking. He felt a little guilty for hiding this truth from the girl.
"No! Unhand me! I don't want Hyou to die! I don't want any of this. This is not what I want!" Qing Mao roared and thrashed in Gu Yihao's arms.
But the man's power is stronger. Whatever efforts Qing Mao made were all in vain.
