In the Cloud Palace, a spacious and bright room, the silver-haired girl snuggled in her mother's arms, the mother and daughter relying on each other, quietly enjoying the warm time.

"Mother, I will be leaving the Cloud Palace tomorrow, and it may be a long time before I come back." The silver-haired girl suddenly opened her golden-red eyes, her tone filled with reluctance.

Her voice had a touch of charm, but it was still clear and crisp, like a warbler singing, pleasant to the ear.

"Mother doesn't want to let you go either, but there are some things that you must do." Ling Guang touched her daughter's soft silver hair, with a bit of reluctance in her voice.

"Mother, I left something at Auntie's place, I'll go get it and come back to accompany you later." The silver-haired girl stood up and walked towards the door.

After staying in the Cloud Palace for two and a half years, she had already grown into a graceful young woman, her height reaching 165 centimeters. Wearing a white long gown, she had delicate and beautiful features, especially those golden-red eyes, perhaps because of the influence of Asathos, her eyes were extremely deep, like a deep pool, irresistible to immersing oneself in.

She had long and fair legs, wearing a pair of white embroidered shoes, giving off an aura of arrogance, pure and holy like a lily.

The only thing lacking was her bust, which looked small and delicate, evoking a sense of pity.

Her appearance bore some resemblance to her mother, Ling Guang. After all, they both consumed food made from Ling Guang's blood every day, and combined with Bai Yan's influence, their appearance was quite similar.

Ling Guang watched her leave the room and went to the kitchen to prepare the last dinner for her daughter.

After a while, she arrived at the Eastern Palace and ran straight to the Small Black Room.

A complex and intricate odd-door formation was set up in front of the Small Black Room, but it was nothing for her. Five minutes later, she easily solved the odd-door formation set up by Auntie and stepped into the Small Black Room.

Two years ago, Auntie Meng Zhang had warned her that if she made a mistake again, she would lock her up in the Small Black Room. Since then, she hadn't made any mistakes, and naturally, Meng Zhang had no excuse to "care for" her great-niece.

This was her first time entering the Small Black Room, and it was not dark at all inside, even bright.

There were many small trinkets in the Small Black Room, and the walls were covered in a layer of thick dust, indicating that it hadn't been cleaned in a long time.

She took out an exquisite jewelry box from the drawer, with a green gemstone set on top.

She curiously inspected the box and murmured, "Is it a necklace?" However, the next moment, she was stunned by the contents of the box.

Inside the jewelry box was a red collar that looked like it was made of leather, except that there were mysterious pale pink runes engraved on the front of the collar. Without careful observation, one wouldn't be able to tell.

The string of runes shimmered with flickering brilliance, and there was a small golden lock behind the collar. It didn't seem appropriate to keep such a thing in a jewelry box.

There was also an instruction manual in the jewelry box, "This item is called the Weakness Collar. Once worn, it will absorb the opponent's strength, limiting their strength to a minimum, and they will be unable to use magic."

"Interesting, really interesting..." She laughed when she read the introduction, then put the collar back into the jewelry box and stored it in her storage space.

Next, she rummaged through the drawer and found many interesting things, such as tickling high-heeled shoes and pink oval-shaped balls that could vibrate, lively ropes, and arm restraints.

She stored these peculiar items in her storage space and then restored the odd-door formation. She then left in a swagger.

Auntie had been away from the Eastern Palace recently, going to the sea with Uncle Zhi Ming to seal a monster named Basatan. Fortunately, thanks to Basatan, she had the opportunity to sneak into the Small Black Room.

After leaving the Eastern Palace, she ran towards the Southern Palace. She didn't dare to go to the Western Palace, as there was a powerful and violent evil spirit inside. Ever since she started practicing the odd-door formation, Uncle Zhi Ming had started to keep the evil spirit, seemingly using it to trouble her.

Since hearing this news from Auntie Meng Zhang, she always had her mother or auntie by her side, and Uncle Zhi Ming never had the chance to release the evil spirit to "bully" her.

Coincidentally, just as Uncle Zhi Ming was on patrol, they bumped into each other.

He looked at her with a smile, "It's been a long time since my great-niece came to Uncle's Western Palace as a guest. Uncle really misses you."

"Mother is cooking at home, so I won't disturb her." She smiled awkwardly.

"No, Uncle needs to have a good chat with his niece." The guard said as he took a step closer and reached out to grab her shoulder. "Big niece, come, let's talk while we walk. Uncle has something to tell you."

"Uncle Guard, I..." She struggled, but unfortunately her strength was no match for the guard. She could only let him pull and drag her along.

The guard dragged her all the way towards the West Palace. They were moving at a fast pace and before long, they arrived at the West Palace.

Just as they entered the gate of the West Palace, a roar of evil spirits came from afar: "Roar~~ Roar~~ Roar~~!" A strong sense of resentment came from a distance.

The guard pushed forward and used his own power to create an arena for the showdown with the evil spirits.

"In this arena, only one person can leave alive, either you or the evil spirits. Even Meng Zhang won't be able to open it." The guard said sternly, "Let Uncle see how much stronger you've become in the two and a half years in the Cloud Palace."

After speaking, the guard stood aside, with a look of anticipation.

Indeed, one person needed to die in order to open the arena. If she couldn't defeat the evil spirits, the guard could easily eliminate the evil spirits with a snap of his fingers. She didn't dare to put herself in danger, or else the other three guys would skin him alive.

He just wanted to see her strength. If she couldn't even defeat the evil spirits, the guard would never let her leave the Cloud Palace. Perhaps, this was the guard's way of protecting her.

Her face became serious. The evil spirits that had been trained by the guard for two years would naturally be powerful.

In front of the main hall of the West Palace, there was a thick black mist, and in the mist was an evil spirit constantly roaring.

The evil spirit had two small horns on its head and its limbs were as strong as pillars. Its whole body was pitch-black, emitting a foul smell of decay that made people nauseous.

Its eyes were crimson and emitted a fierce light. It had eight additional arms behind it, with palms of different lengths and widths, each finger covered in sharp spikes. Its mouth was terrifying, with sharp fangs and blood dripping from the corners.

Without a trace of fear in her eyes, she lightly stomped her right foot and a blue pattern instantly spread across the ground, forming a huge and intricate array.

"Oh, within two years, you've managed to set up such a huge array. It seems like my big niece's comprehension is quite impressive." The guard was slightly surprised. It was the first time he had seen the use of this array.

"Mountain and Gen! Yin and Ji!" A strong aura emanated from her body, and soon a majestic mountain and river appeared behind her, releasing wisps of green smoke.

In the green smoke, the mountain and river slowly condensed into a dragon head. The dragon head was pitch-black, exuding a faint cold light, and its eyes stared directly at the evil spirits, making it unable to move, let alone meet its gaze.

The mountain and river gradually transformed into the body of the dragon, and its claws and tail emerged from the mountain and river. With a roar, the dragon claws struck at the evil spirits.

With a loud explosion, pieces of debris flew and dust filled the air. The head of the evil spirit was smashed into pieces by the dragon, blood and brain matter mixed together, staining the ground red.

The guard looked astonished. This girl was able to display such powerful array magic, which was truly beyond his expectations.

"Uncle Guard, how was that?" she asked.

The guard snapped back to his senses and nodded. "You have improved a lot in strength, my big niece. It seems like you've spent a lot of time in cultivation these past two years."

"Yep." She nodded lightly. "I'm going back to have dinner now."

After saying that, she bid farewell to the guard and turned to leave.

The guard watched as she gradually disappeared from his sight, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. She was truly an outstanding child, his big niece.

"Mom, I'm back." She walked into the kitchen and shouted to her mother.

"Wash your hands, get ready for dinner." Her mother's voice came from the kitchen.

"Oh." She responded and obediently took out her chopsticks, waiting to eat.

Dinner was plentiful, with all her favorite dishes. The mother and daughter sat around the table, eating and chatting, creating a warm and beautiful atmosphere.

"Here, wear this ring." Ling Guang took out a dazzling golden ring from her pocket and handed it over. "It's a storage space. Inside, there are clothes and shoes for all four seasons that I made for you, as well as some Bella and your favorite snacks."

"Thank you, Mom." She smiled sweetly.

"What are you thanking me for? I'm your mother, it's my duty to take care of you." Ling Guang handed her the shining golden ring.

Took the ring and put it on her left finger, she looked up at Ling Guang and said, "Could you help me dye my hair black, Mother?"

Ling Guang was taken aback, not expecting the request to dye her hair. She asked in confusion, "Isn't white hair quite beautiful?"

"Just do it for me," she blinked her big watery eyes, "please, Mother."

Ling Guang was charmed by her cuteness and said, "Dyeing it completely black won't look good. How about adding some highlights?"

After saying that, Ling Guang made her sit in front of the mirror and began using magic to dye her hair.

After about a cup of tea's time, Ling Guang successfully added black highlights to her white hair.

The right side of her hair had more black highlights compared to the left, making her facial features stand out even more.

"Are you satisfied?" Ling Guang touched her head and asked.

She nodded repeatedly, indicating her satisfaction.

"If you're satisfied, let's go eat and then rest early."

"Mhm." She agreed and went to have her meal....
