Right, the Four Elements can seem to heal death energy, Ye Shikai suddenly realized. Back in the ruins of Atlantis, when Ji Qian was afflicted with death energy, everyone advised Ye Shikai to abandon her. It was precisely at that time that the Four Elements transmitted energy to Ji Qian, dissolving the death energy. If the death energy here is the same as in Atlantis and Bai Qi's relics, then the Four Elements can heal it too. Back then, the powerful energy contained in the rocks on the Holy Mountain triggered Ye Shikai's Demon Addiction. Although it was suppressed in time, to solve this issue once and for all, Ji Qian took the risk of seeking the Four Elements to help cure Ye Shikai's Demon Addiction. In the end, the greatest achievement of the Four Elements wasn't to suppress Demon Addiction but to heal Ji Qian who was deeply afflicted by death energy.

Ye Shikai looked up at the ghost soldiers. No, even if the Four Elements could heal death energy, a secluded place must be found for slow treatment. Now, the ghost soldiers are attacking on all fronts, everyone is retreating, how could there be any time for treatment?

"Chase." The leading sergeant shouted, charging forward with a bronze sword. Ye Shikai also held a metal sword, infused with Water Element and Fire Element, unafraid of death energy. The metal sword cut through iron like mud. Ye Shikai channeled his inner strength, swung with force, and broke the bronze sword in two. Taking the opportunity, he thrust the sword directly through the sergeant's abdomen, piercing him clean through.

Roar, roar, roar.

The stabbed ghost soldier sergeant suddenly shouted, his face turned black, quite intimidating.

"Damn, get off me." Ye Shikai kneed him, using his foot against the sergeant's abdomen, gripping his sword tightly, and kicked him away.

"Go quickly." Ye Shikai took out the Fire Element with one hand, channeled his inner strength, and a large flame instantly erupted, burning the ghost soldiers. The flames of the Fire Element were different from ordinary fire, capable of harming ghost soldiers.

Everyone rushed to retreat to the left, but the movements of the ghost soldiers' formation were faster, directly interspersing in the middle of the crowd. Shield Formation was set up, splitting the crowd into left and right, unable to take care of each other.

"Kai, hurry up." Chen Yuxin pulled Ye Shikai's arm, the Chunjun Sword unleashed a powerful Sword Qi, forcing several ghost soldiers back. Ye Shikai looked around, Ji Qian and Selena, with a small group, were blocked on the right by the ghost soldiers' Shield Formation. Most of the people from the three families had already retreated to the left, with mainly the Ji Family and Moon God Temple guards on the right.

"My Qian'er, hurry and rescue her." At this time, Ji Tao's shout came from behind Ye Shikai. What, how did these old men from the Ji Family get separated from her, even Chen Ligong and the White Mist Army were with Ji Tao.

"Brother, it's dangerous there, retreat quickly." Ji Feng quickly pulled Ji Tao "Elder Chen, protect the Family Head quickly."

"Xin, take the people and go first, I need to rescue Ji Qian." Ye Shikai looked anxious, Ji Qian was there with only thirty-something people, what would happen if they encountered danger.

"No, I won't let you do this." Chen Yuxin suddenly rushed to Ye Shikai's side, grabbing him tightly.

"Let go of me." Ye Shikai shouted, but Chen Yuxin held on tightly.

"Ruoya, take him and retreat quickly." Chen Yuxin turned and ordered, "Ghost, take the Hidden Guard to protect him, don't let him go over."

"This..." Ghost was quite troubled by Chen Yuxin's rebuke, Ye Shikai clearly wanted to rescue Ji Qian, but the ghost soldiers' Shield Formation was already formed and unbreakable. A forceful attack would only cost more lives, even putting Ye Shikai's life at risk.

"What are you hesitating for, Jeddon, take people and protect him." Chen Yuxin shouted anxiously, her temper flared instantly.

"Yes." Jeddon, with the hidden guards, immediately protected Ye Shikai from behind and retreated.

"Family Head, you should retreat too. With a few of us elders forming the array, there will be no issue holding them off." Several elders of the Chen family said, they were Chen Yuxin's trusted aides and the backbone of the Chen family. Each elder was at least at the Out-of-Body Stage and adept in Chen family's array, three to five people forming an array could hold off a dozen.

"Alright, keep them at bay."

....................................…

Bam.

Ye Shikai threw his sword on the ground.

"You bastards, why did you stop me." Ye Shikai yelled at the Netherworld Palace members. The group had run two to three kilometers along the left path, finally shaking off the ghost soldiers' chase, temporarily safe, but Ji Qian was lost, leaving Ye Shikai's heart half-shattered.

"The safety of the lord is the most crucial thing for the entire Netherworld Palace. To ensure the lord's safety, I made such a last resort." Jeddon kneeled on one knee, apologizing to Ye Shikai.

"You..."

"Kai, these were my orders." At this time, Chen Yuxin also came over. Though they had escaped danger, her mood was heavy. Ye Shikai's actions stirred her jealousy, though she didn't express it.

"Hmph." Ye Shikai snorted coldly, turned his head into deep thought, occasionally hitting the stone wall with force to vent.

"The situation was urgent earlier. If you rushed over, you wouldn't save anyone, you would have put yourself at risk. What would I do then?" Chen Yuxin rushed in front of Ye Shikai and slapped him fiercely.

"What about me and the child?" Chen Yuxin's voice choked, and Ye Shikai froze suddenly. Yes, Chen Yuxin was pregnant now. If something happened to him, wouldn't the child end up as an orphan?

"If you want to rescue Miss Ji, I will definitely help you, but not right now." Chen Yuxin said loudly.

"Sigh." Ye Shikai plopped down on the ground. In the ruins, there was no communication signal, no way to make a call, no idea if Ji Qian was safe.

"Mr. Ye." At this moment, a somewhat tired voice sounded behind everyone. Turning around, it was Ji Tao.

"Family Head Ji."

"Mr. Ye, I need your help, to rescue my daughter." Ji Tao said earnestly, "No matter how much it costs, I'm willing."

"Family Head Ji, I don't want money, but I am determined to save her." Ye Shikai said firmly.

"Brother, don't worry. The young lady is blessed and will surely be alright," Ji Feng advised from the side.

"Hmph, how touching." At this moment, a cold voice sounded, it was Li Yueying mocking from the side.

"Li Yueying, what do you want to do."

"If you're willing, I... might consider helping you." Li Yueying said indifferently.

"What, really?"

"We were attacked by ghost soldiers just now. Although there were losses, it was only a dozen or so, barely hurting the essence. So... we still have a chance, and the capability to save people."
