Even though Gao Lan Mei was not yet moving, the black and purple aura around her was enough for Fa Liwei to be cautioned to take action. Yes, he was wasting time but his instinct was forcing him to do so.The sparks of power around her grew darker and denser. The surrounding air swirled like sand storms or hurricanes. A very strong pressure that was not something he did not expect to see in the Mortal Domain.
Fa Liwei starred with curiosity at her. "So what is she planning to do now?"
Clink!
Clink!
The golden cage made another set of noises bringing Fa Liwei back to the goal that needed to be accomplished as soon as possible.
"Yes, the time is almost here. Before long we will release the master." Fa Liwei thought to himself. This was the reason for his existence and it would not sway him with other things.
Fa Liwei was eager to eliminate the threat that was in front of him right now. Or else everything might get ruined.
Not letting the Gao Lan Mei got a hold of him again, he leaped for an attack.
Just as he got close enough to Gao Lan Mei; it baffled him. Gao Lan Mei within a blink of an eye had caught the attacking arm of Fa Liwei!
The swift movement left him spellbound. With them this close, Fa Liwei could see closer the difference on Gao Lan Mei"s face.
The protruded veins coming from the side of her eyes were thicker than his own.
Fa Liwei could continue to be more curious but he could not let her get the upper hand.
The strength that Gao Lan Mei possesses right now was incomparable to anything Fa Liwei has ever faced before.
As Gao Lan Mei starred empty. Her eyes dark as abyss. Fa Liwei felt weak and unable to move well enough to counter an attack from Gao Lan Mei.
But she did not attack Fa Liwei, she only held his arm until Fa Liwei got weaker. Fa Liwei"s body got weaker and weaker while Gao Lan Mei"s aura was getting stronger.
"No! She is absorbing my powers?!" He thought with surprise while fighting to keep his consciousness.

On the other side of Mount Hua…
Zoom!
A zap of Ma w.a.n.g Shu"s poisonous beam of magic pa.s.sed Li Huan by earshot. It almost did hit her. But she was lucky enough to dodge it.
Gaining composure Li Huan spinning in a circle and concentrated his magical energy to send a ball of impurity towards Ma w.a.n.g Shu.
Bam!
It hit Ma w.a.n.g Shu, sending her plummeting to the ground far away from where they were.
"You are courting death!" The Justice Affairs captain yelled in anger. It was actually a wrong statement as she was dealing with someone that had already once experienced the death.
Li Huan laughed mockingly. "Death is my food!" She declared loudly before sending another blast of energy to the other woman.
"B*tch! If I severed your head and feed it to the demon beasts now, then I will marry!" Ma w.a.n.g Shu cursed loudly before she leaped towards the nearest tree and started pulling it out from its roots.
Ma w.a.n.g Shu declaration made little sense to those who would hear it. That includes her subordinates that were trying to create a poison perimeter around her.
"Captain… Do not curse using marriage. It is just wrong on all aspects!"
"What do I have to do with you getting married?!" Li Huan said in anger as she avoided the tree that was thrown at her way.
"You cannot get away from me!" Ma w.a.n.g Shu declared chasing after the woman. Her goals were to buy time and make sure that the enemy would be separated.
Ma w.a.n.g Shu s.h.i.+fted her gaze swiftly towards Gao Lan Mei and Fa Liwei that was on the opposite side.
"I am sorry. I cannot stop your Impure Madness, but I can only take advantage of it. You are far too gone. I am sorry for sacrificing you for this fight." She thought to herself.
It was the decision that Ma w.a.n.g Shu felt was the best. "I will not forget you." For her Gao Lan Mei might not be a member of Justice Affairs, but because of her sacrifice, Ma w.a.n.g Shu did not mind acknowledging her.
Ma w.a.n.g Shu then s.h.i.+fted, moved her gaze to one of her soldiers and gave a nod as a go signal.
With the signal, the soldiers started chanting their goal was to form a transparent s.h.i.+eld around the area of the fight.
What Ma w.a.n.g Shu was doing did not go unnoticed. However, he was too busy to get away from Gao Lan Mei. She was not only absorbing his strength but his life force.
How could this be?!
Cultivation allows meridians to absorb external Qi within the environment to get stronger. For him, even though Gao Lan Mei could use Devour, he did not expect her to be on this level.
The reason it baffled Fa Liwei since he only witnessed Gao Lan Mei causing havoc during the time when Wei Jiayi had lured her into the purification pentagram to save her recently from Impure Madness. So he failed to see how Gao Lan Mei turned the Miss of the Ming family into an old lady.
Since it distracted his thoughts, Fa Liwei could not avoid Gao Lan Mei"s surprise attack that closed behind him quickly throwing him off from his guard
Gao Lan Mei suddenly held his neck with both hands. She also circled her legs around his waist from behind. She was like a snake coiling around it"s victim.
