Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss

Three days earlier.

Just when Sima You Yue and Di Wu jumped off the city walls, they were in the heart of the forbidden area. A group of them were in the huge plaza.

This plaza was different from other plazas. There were eighty-one one-metre-tall black stone pillars surrounding them. Four pillars towered in the four corners of the plaza. Each one was inscribed with a variety of ancient spirit beasts. In the centre of the plaza stood not a strong stone, but a giant pond.

At this time, the liquid that was similar to water was moving restlessly. On the surface of the pond rippled in a semicircular shape. The liquid surrounded the pond, not allowing it to spill over.

Everyone in the plaza focused on the activity in the pond, worry written on all of their faces.

"Why isn't Wu Man here yet?" A senior grumbled lowly to the two beside him.

This senior was appointed as one of the clan leaders in the Zhang Clan. He was the one and only Zhang Hao, first of the current four great decision makers in Ghost City.

To his side were two others. One was the decision maker of East City, Luo Qi, and Meng Sha. Luo Qi, who was more than two metres tall, was a lot taller than the average. Adding his moustache to that look, he looked like a complete barbarian.

The other one, Meng Sha, looked a lot more gentle. It was just that his eyes were too icy, and it felt like he could freeze you to death with a single glance.

"Zhang Hao, Wu Man is coming from the North and will need a bit more time." Luo Qi said.

"Is her heart still with managing Ghost City at all?" Meng Sha said icily, "I'm afraid that she no longer cares about whether this city lives or dies. She probably thinks males and females are all the same."

"Meng Sha, I think it's best that you never open your mouth at any time." An enchanting girl appeared from the void and glanced at him coldly.

Dressed in a fiery red skirt that slit all the way up her thigh, a red fan was in her hand. Even her eyelashes were red.

She glanced at everyone, enchanting them.

"I'm very sorry. This mouth of mine just loves to speak the truth." Meng Sha said, "We were all here and you were the only one left. It's hard for everyone not to think that way."

"There will be a day where I poison you and turn you mute." Wu Man said.

"Alright, what time is it now. You're still standing around bickering." Zhang Hao stopped the two of them from continuing.

If this were any usual time, he would just let them continue bickering. However, the situation now was different. This was no time to let them war with words.

Wu Man came to the side of the pond and watched as it continued to attack the barrier nonstop. A bit of it had even managed to break past the barrier and turned into a bout of black smoke and wanted to rush outside only to be fanned away into nothingness by a wave of Wu Man's fan.

"Why would it suddenly turn so agitated? It's even grown so much more powerful." She casually fanned her fan, every movement extremely alluring. Even her doubtful state was enticing.

"We suspect that it might be due to sunset mountain." Zhang Hao said. Ever since that thing happened, the activity here has been increasing in frequency."

The hand Wu Man held the fan with, hesitated for a moment. She quickly regained her composure and said, "There is a strong link between this place and sunset mountain. It is normal that it affects each other."

"It seems that this seal is going to be broken soon. I'm afraid that it will not be able to hold on for much longer." Luo Qi said.

"Have we notified the city lord?"

"We cannot contact the city lord. No one else can enter that place." Meng Sha said.

"If the city lord does not return, I'm afraid that this seal will no longer be able to hold it back." Zhang Hao said.

"Its strength has been growing all the while. The people who keep watch here have said that its strength has recently been amplified by something, and it has grown much stronger very quickly." Luo Qi recounted what he heard.

"Since we cannot contact City Lord, we can only suppress it for the time being. Then, we can look for City Lord and redo the seal." Wu Man suggested.

"We can only do that for now."

"Is everyone here?"

"All the guards from the forbidden area have arrived." Zhao Hao said, "Right now, we were only waiting for you."

"Then let's begin."

"Everyone, get ready!" Zhang Hao waved his hand and all the guards stood in a circle around the pond. Eighty one people flew onto the pillars while Wu Man and the other three flew to the four poles in the specific four directions.

"Seal!"

With the single command, everyone poured their spirit energy into the pond. The spirit energy fortified the seal on the barrier. The initially tottering barrier was returning to normal right in front of their eyes.

"Roar-"

The power in the pond could sense that the seal was getting strengthened and started to toss about with increased intensity. It seemed to be giving it a final push. The initially recovering barrier once again weakened considerably.

"Again! We definitely have to seal it!" Zhang Hao said to everyone.

"Agreed!"

Everyone activated their spirit energy again, pouring even more energy into the seal than before. The power started to equal with the one inside.

"This won't do, this will not be able to suppress the power inside!" Luo Wi said.

"Wu Man!" Zhang Hao cried out.

"Bullying this lady?" Wu Man cursed as she tossed the fan in her hand. The fan grew huge in the sky, only stopping when it was as big as the pond.

The power of the pond seemed a little afraid of that red fan. When that fan was in midair, it seemed to weaken the resistance quite a lot.

"Now!" Meng Sha cried out and everyone increased the power they poured in. a portion was inserted into the seal while a portion attacked the inside directly.

"Angg-"

A wretched and disgruntled cry rang out from the inside, and it slowly died down. The chaotic energy also slowly returned to normal.

"Disperse!"

On Zhang Hao's command, everyone slowly stopped releasing their spirit energy. Only in this way would nobody get hurt.

However, every single one of them was exhausted. Although they did not have to hold on for a long time, only about an hour to so, everyone one of them felt like their spirit energy had been drained dry.

"Everyone, eat some pills to replenish some energy." Zhao Hao said.

All the guards had energy replenishing pulls. They ate the pills before sitting down and resting to recover their spirit energy.

Wu Man waved her hand and her fan returned to its original small size before flying back into her hand.

Although they managed to successfully suppress the energy this time, their expressions did not appear completely relaxed.

"Although we suppressed them for the time being, we don't really know if it has really quieted down." Luo Qi said.

"I could sense that it has not completely given up. Although it is hibernating for now. If it attacks again, I'm afraid that we will face even greater resistance." Wu Man said worriedly.

"I could sense it too." Meng Sha said, "That is why we cannot yet leave this place for another two days. Just to prevent it from attacking suddenly."

"This is all we can do for now. If the power suddenly bursts out of the seal, we would likely be powerless to resist. The entire city and its people would be swallowed."

"Then should we notify them before that or not, to let them try to avoid this?" Luo Qi suggested.

"How will we tell them? The moment they find out, it will cause chaos." Zhao Hao said icily.

"I agree. We will continue to observe. If it is really dangerous, it will not be too late to tell them then." Meng Sha said.

However, none of them could have thought that the situation would turn so quickly and that there would be no time to react.
