WHOOOOOOSH!
Four fifty-foot Soul-Severing Frost Guillotines dropped through the sub-zero air of the Abyssal Frost Core from the North, South, East, and West simultaneously.
The four Rank 7 Peak Frost-Pillar Executioners were Warden Tianfa’s personal inner-vault guards. For ten years, they had stood disguised. Meanwhile, Ice statues around the Ten-Thousand-Year Frost Pillar, programmed with a single ruthless command.
The moment any unauthorized hand came within ten feet of Empress Luo Qingxue’s chains, they would lock space into a [Four-Direction Slaying Cage] and bisect both the rescuer and the surrounding floor in a single instant!
Even worse, as thirteen-year-old Ye Xiao saw on the warning page of [Dad’s Plot-Spoiler Notebook], the four guillotines were rigged with a sonic shockwave array!
“Dad, watch out!” Ye Xiao whispered urgently, holding back his [Homework-First Bamboo Ruler Sword] so its sword-hum wouldn’t echo.
“If those four guillotines clash against any metal weapon or create a shockwave above eighty decibels, the vibration will trigger the emergency Core-Detonation Reflex inside Mom’s sealed consciousness! She’ll think Warden Tianfa has come to turn her into a puppet and detonate her own Rank 8 Ice-Sword Core in her sleep!”
Behind the [Trojan Nine-Grid Hotpot Cart], twelve-year-old Gu Nian, ten-year-old Su Nuannuan, nine-year-old Jiang Tuntun, and toddler Little Fifth all held their breath.
