Gui Ya chuckled again: "On that day, we will kill my current father, the Ghost Lord."
Yang Susu raised an eyebrow.
They knew very little about the ghost realm, so she could take this opportunity to learn more.
Yang Susu asked, "Why did you kill your father, the Ghost King?"
Gui Ya reached out and stroked a human head on the Ten Thousand Ghosts Chair, then poked two fingers into the ghost's eyes and stirred them a few times.
"Because by killing the Ghost King, I can control the entire Ghost Realm!"
"Anyway, the ghosts and gods have been gone from the ghost realm for a long time."
"Nobody knows where he went."
"I heard they went to the realm of the gods!"
Gui Ya grinned: "However, no matter where she went, the Ghost Realm is now under the control of the Ghost Lord."
"Kill him, and I can become the master of this ghost realm!"
Yang Susu asked curiously, "Can't you kill the Ghost King with your current power?"
Gui Ya: "This is rather troublesome!"
"He has twelve great demon kings by his side."
"But Mother is here!"
……
Although the tremors of the Eastern Zhou land had subsided, the air was still filled with the astringent smell of dust and blood.
A golden light, carrying several figures, pierced through the clouds and landed heavily in the center of the Demon Realm.
The once towering Demon Palace, piercing the clouds, is now half reduced to ruins.
Black magic stones were scattered all over the ground, like the shattered spine of a giant beast.
The sky over the Demon Realm was dark, but the oppressive aura of destruction that had been looming overhead had dissipated, replaced by a desolate sense of relief and relief after surviving a catastrophe.
"Quickly, clear away the rubble here!"
"There are still wounded over there, hurry up!"
Above the ruins, Little Mouse and Little Green, their faces covered in dust, were directing the demons to clean up the site.
They were also injured and their clothes were tattered, but their spirit and energy remained.
Everyone is doing their utmost to protect their homes.
"That is……"
The mouse's round, sharp eyes spotted the golden light descending from the sky at a glance.
"It's the Demon Lord, and also Yue Shu, Jin Long, and Lord A Yao!"
Xiaoqing was so excited that she threw away the half of the stone pillar she was holding and dusted off her hands.
"They're back! The young master is back!"
Their divine will has returned.
Not far away, a large black bird flapped its enormous wings and flew over.
On his back sat a girl dressed in a flowing sea-blue dress.
It was Wu Ying and Hai Lingling.
"Brother-in-law, Xiaoman!"
Before Hai Lingling even landed, she couldn't wait to jump off the eagle's back.
She landed lightly on the gravel-strewn square like a blue butterfly, her face full of worry.
"Brother-in-law..."
Before Hai Lingling could finish speaking, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She saw the girl being held tightly in Jun Yichen's arms.
Hu Xiaoman nestled in Jun Yichen's arms, revealing her small, palm-sized face.
That face was so white it was almost transparent, devoid of any color.
What was most chilling were her eyes—those eyes that once held the vastness of the stars and the sea, and always carried a sly smile, were now a lifeless gray, so empty that they reflected nothing.
"Xiao...Xiaoman?"
Hai Lingling's smile gradually froze, and finally shattered completely.
She subconsciously took a step forward and reached out to take Hu Xiaoman's hand.
"Xiaoman, it's me, Aunt Lingling! I brought you lots of delicious sea spirit fruits..."
"what!"
Hu Xiaoman shuddered violently, like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.
She buried her face in Jun Yichen's chest in terror, her little hands gripping his clothes tightly, her voice trembling with obvious sobs.
"I'm scared... scared..."
"Father, there's a bad person..."
Hai Lingling's hand froze in mid-air, as if struck by lightning.
Bad guy?
Although she and Wu Ying have been away from home for many years and rarely return to the Demon Realm, as a woman of good fortune, she wants to bring blessings to everyone, so she travels the world with Wu Ying.
It wasn't until the great calamity of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty that she and Wu Ying hurriedly returned.
She had seen Xiaoman before in her sister's Extreme Plate and knew what Xiaoman looked like.
She also knew that the collapse of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty must have been due to something bad happening during the Xiaoman solar term.
Although the two have never officially met, it's not fair to call her a bad person the moment they meet.
She was his real aunt.
Moreover, Xiaoman's eyes...
Black Eagle looked at Moon Tree Golden Dragon with a puzzled expression.
Moon Tree Golden Dragon shook his head and sighed.
"Young Master?" Xiaoshu and Xiaoqing also came over, and their expressions changed instantly when they looked at Hu Xiaoman.
Xiaoqing and the mouse instinctively hugged each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"What...what's going on?"
The mouse asked in a trembling voice, "My little master... her eyes...?"
Yan Kangshun, Hao Fengyu, and other powerful figures from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, dragging their wounded bodies, gathered from all directions.
They originally wanted to see Xiaoman, since the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was in such a state before, it must be because something happened during Xiaoman.
Even though I had prepared myself mentally, seeing Xiaoman like this still made my heart ache!
Is Xiaoman no longer visible?
Is that trembling, foolish girl who huddled in her father's arms and didn't recognize anyone she knew really the Heavenly Lord who could turn the world upside down and protect the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with his own power?
A deathly silence spread across the Demon Palace Square.
Hu Qingye slowly walked out from behind Jun Yichen.
Large, shocking patches of black blood still bloomed on his white shirt.
That was Xiaoman vomiting on him.
Hu Qingye's eyes were red as she glanced at everyone present.
His gaze lingered for a moment on Tianrun's exhausted face before turning to the demon citizens, covered in blood but still with burning eyes.
"Xiaoman..."
Fox Qingye's voice was hoarse, as if she had swallowed a handful of coarse sand, and every word was tinged with blood.
"In order to completely eradicate the soul seed, in order to prevent the collapse of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and in order for you... so that we can all live."
"She stripped away the origin of the Heavenly Dao and tore her own soul apart."
"She can't see now, and she doesn't remember anything."
These words struck like a heavy hammer blow to everyone's heart.
The whole place was dead silent.
The wind blew through the ruins, making a howling sound, as if heaven and earth were weeping softly.
"It's our incompetence...we've been a burden to the adults!"
They are not strong enough!
If they are powerful enough, they can also protect their own Heavenly Dao.
Hao Fengyu knelt down, followed by Hao Fengyu the Little Mouse, Xiao Qing, and Wu Ying...
One by one.
At this moment, tens of thousands of demons knelt down heavily before the foolish girl.
A series of suppressed sobs and dull thuds as people hit the ground.
This is their most sincere respect for the Way of Heaven, and also their deepest remorse for the girl who sacrificed everything.
