Protector Nuan had thought that the "Profound Gold"–constructed entrance to the Great Abyss would be countered by the Mother Water.
But now, it seemed she had been too optimistic.
"My Lord..."
Protector Nuan's right hand was placed against the entrance to the Great Abyss.
This was the closest distance she had been to Xiahou Yuan.
"I'm useless..."
Protector Nuan's eyes began to redden slightly.
"Time's almost up, wait a little longer, and that Jiang swordsmaster should arrive."
The man beside her suddenly spoke.
"Jiang swordsmaster..."
Protector Nuan took a deep breath.
"Moyang Demon Lord..."
If Moyang Demon Lord were here, he could have deterred the Jiang swordsmaster and bought her more time.
"My Lord..."
"Hold on a little longer."
"I will return soon."
After saying this, Protector Nuan led her followers away quickly.
As time passed, the truly loyal minions to Xiahou Yuan became fewer and fewer.
