Additionally, Xu Qing also obtained some other information from the Ghost General.
The wooden ladle dropped by the old woman was heading towards the Netherworld portal guarded by the Ghost Law and Witch Qi, who took it upon themselves to bear most of the damage to prevent any issues with the portal.
Meanwhile, the Eight Banner Marshals and others, including the Yin-Depletion Dharma King, were forced to act with a mindset of shared glory and shared loss.
Their actions were understandable, as it was all for worldly struggles. If things sealed in the underworld were to invade the mortal world, both Dayong and Nan Cuo would face even greater crises.
Only the Ghost King of Multitude Woes retreated from the battle, choosing to abandon the Ghost Soldiers to preserve his own strength.
After all, losing the Ghost Soldiers was a minor issue, but injuring one's foundation was significant, akin to a vassal dying for his monarch.
