Swish! Swish!
With two swift sword strikes, Chen Xuan sliced the two low-ranking demons in half, capturing their souls with the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
The demons, who were comparable to Profound Death Realm experts, fell so easily.
"Die!" Chen Xuan’s cold voice rang out, his killing intent spreading across the sky.
With the help of the Ancestral Stone, the two Ancestral Symbols emitted a terrifying light, transforming into an arrow that shot toward the Devil King of the Underworld.
“You insolent brat! Do you think you can kill me?” Di Ming sneered. Holding Lin Dong in one hand, his black wings released an overwhelming dark aura. He spat out golden blood, which mixed with his dark aura, forming a black shield.
"Underworld Shield!" He held the shield behind him, hoping to block the Ancestral Symbol’s attack while he made a quick escape toward the rift.
It wasn’t a bad plan, but the Ancestral Symbols naturally restrained demonic energy. In half a second, the arrow pierced through the shield and struck Di Ming, his expression full of horror as it tore through him.
“Damn it!” Di Ming was engulfed in dark energy, but his strength rapidly weakened as black smoke rose from his wound. With a vengeful look at Chen Xuan, he chose to self-destruct.
A massive explosion filled the area with waves of demonic energy, turning the entire Tianyan Mountains into a world of darkness.
In the chaos, he used the dark energy to shield his heart and Lin Dong as he vanished into the rift.
From a distance, Lin Dong’s voice, laced with hatred, could be faintly heard. "Just wait! The day I return will be the day you fall!"
Ding! Lin Dong’s hatred has reached its peak, emotional value +999
Chen Xuan watched as the sky returned to calm. He didn’t pursue them—there was no telling if that rift connected directly to the Devil Prison, which would be a trap if he followed.
Though he hadn’t been able to kill Lin Dong, the Devil King of the Underworld was severely wounded by the Ancestral Symbols, rendering him powerless.
From his encounter with these demons, Chen Xuan had gleaned some useful information that differed from the original story:
1. The relationship between Lin Dong and the demons: Why were the demons willing to risk exposure, sacrificing generals to rescue him?
2. The hint about Ling Qingzhu’s loss of innocence. Though the demon didn’t finish speaking, Chen Xuan suspected they were involved.
"Senior, are you alright?" Lin Fan, supporting Yun Yun, approached Chen Xuan with concern.
“I’m fine.” Chen Xuan bought a recovery pill from the system shop and began restoring his energy. Yun Yun looked at him worriedly but didn’t interrupt. After a while, he was fully recovered.
With a glance at the demon-infested Tianyan Mountains, Chen Xuan took out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and absorbed the remaining dark energy. He knew he couldn’t stay in the Great Yan Dynasty any longer—after injuring the Devil King and revealing his Ancestral Symbols and Stone, the Devil Prison would undoubtedly send assassins after him.
It was time to leave.
Before leaving, Chen Xuan decided he had one last thing to do: visit the Great Desolate Ancient Monumeny.
He vaguely recalled that it suppressed a powerful demon of the king rank.
Despite being confined for countless ages, there was a high chance that the demon race had communicated with this entity. Perhaps, he could get some valuable information from it.
Arriving in the capital, Mo Jingtian reported, “Sir, as per your orders, we’ve eliminated the Qin and Wang families.”
"Roar!" The Ancient Dragon Ape and the Heaven-Shaking Demon Ape nodded in agreement.
Chen Xuan was pleased. “Well done.”
Mo Jingtian then reported his actions at Eagle City, where he had liberated the Eagle Martial Dojo and stationed a Half-Nirvana Realm expert for its protection. Chen Xuan, satisfied, rewarded him with a Nirvana Divine Pill.
"Is this…?" Mo Jingtian accepted the pill, awestruck by the powerful energy it radiated, though unfamiliar with it.
“It’s a Nirvana Divine Pill,” Chen Xuan explained.
"What?!"
Mo Jingtian’s eyes widened in shock. He had only ever read about such a pill in ancient texts and never imagined he’d see one in person. Overcome with excitement, he trembled slightly.
Chen Xuan continued, “I have important matters to attend to. In my absence, you’ll be responsible for the Eagle Martial Dojo, the Ten Thousand Gold Chamber of Commerce, and the City Lord’s Mansion in Yan City.”
Though Yan City itself was gone, its people remained. Mo Jingtian quickly nodded. “I will give it my all!”
Satisfied, Chen Xuan nodded. Before leaving, he decided to say goodbye to a few close companions. At the luxurious courtyard Mo Jingtian had arranged, Shi Ziyue, Xuan Su, and Xia Zilan rose to greet him.
“Brother Xuan, is it true that you’re leaving the Great Yan Dynasty?” Xuan Su hesitated, then asked.
The three had spent little time with him, and initially, Chen Xuan had brought them into his life for revenge.
But over time, he had grown genuinely fond of them. Chen Xuan nodded. “Yes, I still have many things to accomplish and can’t stay here for long.”
"Before you leave, let us serve you one last time,” Xuan Su said softly, biting her lip as she looked at him with a hint of longing.
“Yes, who knows when you’ll return,” Shi Ziyue and Xia Zilan chimed in, giving him no chance to decline.
He didn’t hesitate, drawing them into his arms and leading them into the room. The three were no strangers to him, and together, they moved in harmony.
Then…
The next morning, while they still slept, Chen Xuan got dressed and quietly vanished from the room.
After he left, the three women awoke together, but seeing he was gone, they embraced each other and wept.
Chen Xuan, sensing their sadness, didn’t turn back. Instead, he made his way to the city walls of the capital.
There, Yun Yun sat in a light indigo dress, perched on the wall with her long, flawless legs spread confidently, hands resting on her knees.
Sensing his arrival, her graceful, noble expression showed a hint of displeasure from the wait.
"Are they as big? As long? Satisfying, hmm?"
Chen Xuan gave an awkward smile. “Sorry for keeping you waiting.”
“Had your fill of the comfort of the ladies’ arms?” she asked with a slightly jealous tone.
Chen Xuan fell silent.
“After all that effort yesterday, care to go back and enjoy some more?”
He chuckled. “Let’s go. I still need to visit Eagle City.”
