Ning Yitao caught sight of the Spirit - Binding Bell beside her and gave Ji Wangqiu a look.
Ji Wangqiu nodded slightly, understanding Ning Yitao's intention.
In front of them, Yin Huan was extremely unstable emotionally. She kept talking to herself, trying to convince herself that she had done nothing wrong, while also trying to deceive herself. She just refused to admit her mistakes.
Yin Huan seemed possessed as she kept muttering,
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me..."
There was no need to indulge a disobedient child.
Ning Yitao took out the Spirit - Catching Net that Yin Huan had just broken free from.
A wisp of spiritual power emerged from her fingertips, mending the damaged net.
The repaired Spirit - Catching Net seemed to have a navigation system. It targeted Yin Huan, who was still stubbornly arguing, and rushed towards her.
As soon as Yin Huan noticed it, her first reaction was to run away. But how could an injured person escape?
The Spirit - Catching Net seemed to be full of resentment. It moved quickly and mercilessly.
The moment the net bound her, Ji Wangqiu controlled the Spirit - Binding Bell to trap Yin Huan.
Yin Huan struggled desperately. The Spirit - Catching Net deliberately tightened more and more, as if it wanted to strangle her.
Yin Huan roared angrily,
"Let me go!"
But how could Ning Yitao let her escape easily?
No one paid any attention to Yin Huan's cries.
Ning Yitao injected new power into the Spirit - Binding Bell. She wanted Yin Huan to feel even more pain than Liu Yun'er had just endured.
Compared to Liu Yun'er, Yin Huan could be considered a great demon.
Of course, there should be a different "way of hospitality" to "receive" a great demon.
Facing this sudden series of changes, Yin Huan was caught off guard.
She had never seen the Spirit - Binding Bell before, but a thought gradually formed in her mind.
Yin Huan recalled the howls of Liu Yun'er she had heard from Ning Yitao's pocket just now.
Even thinking about the misery in Liu Yun'er's voice now made her feel scared.
She kept rolling on the ground, using all her strength to break free from the control of the Spirit - Catching Net again.
But all her struggles were in vain.
She couldn't even break free from the Spirit - Catching Net, let alone escape from the Spirit - Binding Bell.
Then, a deafening, earth - shaking thunderclap resounded. Lightning flashed across the Spirit - Binding Bell.
Dark clouds gathered above Yin Huan's head, covering the entire bell. The dark clouds seemed to crush the city.
Lying flat on the ground, Yin Huan was directly confronted with all the changes inside the bell.
Rolling thunder rumbled across the dark sky. Suddenly, a blinding flash of lightning streaked across. Yin Huan couldn't help but close her eyes. She felt that the next second, the lightning would strike directly into her eyes.
The thunder roared in the low - lying clouds, making her ears buzz.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning pierced through the thick dark clouds, descending from the sky and striking directly at Yin Huan's face.
Then, a shrill scream echoed in everyone's ears.
"Ahhhhh!"
The scream was heart - rending.
Everyone just watched coldly, looking at her painful and helpless howls.
Eve felt pain just watching and silently averted her gaze.
This was the first time Ji Wangqiu had discovered that the magical instrument of his sect could exert such powerful force.
He understood Ning Yitao's intention.
For an evil being like Yin Huan, who had survived and practiced for a long time, an ordinary Spirit - Binding Bell would have no effect on her at all.
If she wasn't given a fatal blow, she would never learn her lesson.
Ning Yitao had used the formation in the Spirit - Binding Bell to its fullest potential. In fact, she had understood the principle of this formation at the first sight, even though it was the first time she had seen it.
Ji Wangqiu was once again amazed at Ning Yitao's terrifying understanding ability.
He looked at Ning Yitao in surprise and found the answer in his heart.
Even though he had come to this world earlier than Ning Yitao, so what?
In the places where he couldn't see, she always managed to grow in adversity.
Now, Ning Yitao didn't need his protection and could live well on her own.
This realization left a strange feeling in Ji Wangqiu's heart.
The advantage he once had was now gone.
Zhaocai just thought that the cries of the infant spirits and Yin Huan's shouts were too noisy when mixed together.
Ning Yitao watched as the dark clouds gradually covered Yin Huan's body, and Yin Huan's cries gradually faded.
"She seems to be unable to bear it anymore," Grandma Grace reminded.
The series of changes just now had filled Grandma Grace with fear of Ning Yitao.
For the first time, she felt the pressure released by this young girl when she got angry. Even an old person like her, who had practiced for a lifetime, couldn't bear it.
The power emitted by that bell in Ning Yitao's hand even made Grandma Grace feel scared.
The thunderclaps had penetrated the Spirit - Binding Bell and echoed throughout the room.
Each bolt of lightning made the already - lit room even brighter.
Grandma Grace had just voiced her thought.
Ning Yitao didn't answer.
She slightly hooked her hand and withdrew some of the spiritual power she had attached to the Spirit - Binding Bell, making sure that Yin Huan wouldn't faint.
Ning Yitao just wanted Yin Huan to be awake and accept the punishment.
She wanted Yin Huan to know.
What the price of running away was.
Just when everyone thought she had stopped.
Unexpectedly, she frowned, as if sensing something. She suddenly told Ji Wangqiu,
"Watch Yin Huan."
Then she suddenly turned her head, leaped, and jumped into the time rift that Liu Yun'er had torn open before.
No one knew what had happened.
She was so fast that even Ji Wangqiu didn't react in time. He instinctively reached out his hand in Ning Yitao's direction, but caught nothing.
Ji Wangqiu could only watch helplessly as Ning Yitao disappeared before his eyes.
**************
Ning Yitao had her own reasons for jumping into the time rift.
The moment she entered, she understood.
This rift belonged to Yin Huan's master.
The moment she got inside, the aura of Yin Huan's master became extremely strong.
"He's here," Ning Yitao thought, her face turning serious.
Ning Yitao had come to the rift because she sensed that Liu Qiaoz's aura was unstable.
When Ning Yitao and Liu Qiaoz separated, they accidentally formed a contract.
To form a contract, mutual trust between the two parties was required to trigger the contract - forming condition.
This was also one of the reasons why Liu Qiaoz was willing to let Ning Yitao go.
This also allowed them to sense each other's situation.
Ning Yitao chose to jump into the time rift because it was the closest way back to Liu Qiaoz's illusion.
However, the owner of this time rift also sensed Ning Yitao's presence immediately.
He actually set a trap and made Ning Yitao jump in without any defense.
