“Zhou Ying, it’s Zhou Ying!” Someone shouted.
The summit of the Soaring Clouds Sect was filled with people.
Storm clouds rolled over the mountain, the layers of cloud pushed down low.
Harsh winds swept through the forest and through the crowds of people, picking up their shirt sleeves.
The Soaring Clouds Sect Leader, Elder, and Phoenix City’s Lord stood before the main hall on the peak. They look battered and exhausted from head to toe. Countless disciples chased after them with their weapons raised, surrounding the Demon King and his people on a patch of flat ground.
The ground was covered in corpses, most of them belonging to the cultivators with a couple members of the demon race scattered in between.
This time, the Elders of the Soaring Clouds Sect were almost completely wiped out.
Most of the Elders from other sects were also killed.
Both sides suffered heavy losses.
Nearby, all the remaining cultivators from the big sects gathered together fully armed, setting up traps all over the place.
Looking down from the sky, there were people everywhere.
And at that moment, those people all raised their heads to look at the Zhou Ying in midair.
Bai Yang followed Zhou Ying and floated down at the peak.
“Zhou Ying!” Zhao Qinger, who stood beside Sect Leader Zhao, snapped out of her shock and rushed over in surprise and happiness, “You’re back?”
A huge weight lifted off Zhou Ying’s heart after seeing her alive. Setting his hands on her shoulders, he smiled and nodded: “I’m back.”
Then he looked Zhou Ying up and down, asking: “Are you hurt anywhere?”
Zhao Qinger shook her head, “I’m fine.”
Her pretty face flushed from the nice surprise, adoration and shock apparent in her eyes, “Zhou Ying, your cultivation level is so high now, did you come to save me specifically?”
Zhou Ying nodded.
Zhao Qinger’s face went red immediately, her eyes lighting up.
“Zhou Ying.” The figure of a beautiful woman walked out from behind Phoenix City’s Lord, floating down like an immortal descending down to the mortal world. She came to Zhou Ying’s side, calling him softly.
This was Zhou Ying’s other woman, Feng Ming.
Zhou Ying spoke to Feng Ming with a smile: “You’re here too?”
Feng Ming lowered her head slightly, flushing a bit red.
Zhao Qinger looked at Zhou Ying, then at Fend Ming. Probably from how keen a woman’s sixth sense is, her complexion became odd.
Under numerous watchful eyes, Zhou Ying’s two women have met.
When everyone’s eyes were on Zhou Ying, only Bai Yang looked at the Demon King standing up ahead.
That person stood in the crowd, clothes intact. His black robe was dignified and imposing, and his eyes calm. Like he’d never taken the huge army seriously.
“Your Highness.” Bai Yang couldn’t help but speak, starting towards him.
Zhou Ying was talking to his women when he saw Bai Yang’s movement out of the corner of his eye. With no time to think about the women’s subtle feelings, he rushed to block Bai Yang, “What are you doing?”
Zhao Qinger’s expression changed. She was someone that knew Bai Yang’s real identity, and was worried that Zhou Ying would be caught in the fray if other people knew of Bai Yang’s identity.
This was Feng Ming’s first time seeing Bai Yang’s real appearance and she asked curiously, “Who is this?”
Zhou Ying ignored her, eyes never leaving Bai Yang, “What are you doing?”
The words, ‘Don’t act recklessly’ were clearly written in his eyes.
Bai Yang smiled slightly, continuing forward.
Zhou Ying blocked him.
“Move.”
Zhou Ying clenched his fists.
Everyone’s eyes finally landed on Bai Yang, and they started talking, “Who’s that?”
Zhao Qinger’s expression changed slightly.
Hearing everyone talking, Zhou Ying clenched his fists tighter, “Dad, don’t take another step.”
Bai Yang stopped, speaking to Zhou Ying in all seriousness: “I told you, I’m not your dad.”
Zhou Ying’s pupils trembled.
“We were never supposed to walk the same path, parting ways was inevitable.” Bai Yang said.
“Dad!” Zhou Ying realized what he was going to do, and he grabbed onto his arm, “Don’t go.”
Bai Yang looked at him, “If you don’t want me to go, then kill me.”
“Dad!” Zhou Ying looked extremely anxious, like a trapped beast.
Bai Yang shook off his hand, turning to walk towards the Demon King without looking back.
In the open land at the peak sat a spell barrier created from the blood of the demon race. There were bodies and blood everywhere, the heavy smell floating through the air.
Only twenty or so people remained beside the Demon King, most of them injured. But none of them cried out in pain, standing there silently.
Hua Feihua seemed to have been heavily injured. He wasn’t standing, instead meditating on the ground.
Cultivators stood around the land like tigers watching their prey, but nobody dared to step forward.
Bai Yang slowly walked into the spell barrier made from blood.
The spell barrier suddenly lit up, that light could block all the cultivators.
A thick layer of magic power emerged from Bai Yang’s body, and the light faded.
Everyone saw it.
“He’s of the demon race!” Phoenix City’s Lord was the first to stand, pointing at Bai Yang and yelling, “He’s of the demon race!”
“Kill him!” Someone else yelled.
Bai Yang walked into the spell barrier, stirring up the people that stood around.
Zhou Ying stood there with an expressionless face, not moving a finger.
Zhao Qinger and Feng Ming stood beside Zhou Ying helplessly.
Bai Yang continued forward.
Xiao Ling’s voice suddenly sounded in his head, “Detecting Master Demon King, I will start to take the data.”
Bai Yang: “I’m leaving it to you, Xiao Ling.”
Xiao Ling: “Don’t worry Sir, I won’t let you down……”
She paused before saying: “Sir, I’m about to clear my database.”
Bai Yang stopped in his tracks.
Xiao Ling said: “Sir, when you’re back in the real world, remember to give me a five-star rating.”
Bai Yang’s mood was heavy, he promised: “Don’t worry, you’re the best system ever, I swear I’ll give you a five-star rating.”
Xiao Ling laughed happily, “Thank you sir~”
“I should be the one thanking you.” Bai Yang said.
Xiao Ling asked again: “Sir, will we see each other again?”
The corner of Bai Yang’s eyes burned, “We will, we definitely will. Even if you don’t remember anything, I’ll tell you all of our stories.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
“Ah, that’s great.” Xiao Ling said, “Sir, don’t be sad, since we’ll see each other again, you have to be happier.”

The ones by the Demon King immediately went up to block him, but the Demon King waved his hand and stopped them.
Bai Yang walked to his side, kneeling down on one knee, “Your Highness.”
“What did you come here for?” The Demon King lowered his head and asked.
Bai Yang stood up and smiled: “I wanted to be with you.”
The Demon King’s pupils shrunk slightly, then he turned his head, “Fool.”
Bai Yang looked around, discovering that the demon race suffered heavy losses and he couldn’t help but ask: “How did this happen?”
Hua Feihua stood up and said with gritted teeth: “Lou Jianfeng betrayed us! He leaked his Highness’ plans to the human cultivators and led us into a trap!”
So it was Lou Jianfeng!
Bai Yang was slightly shocked but not that surprised, because in the novel Lou Jianfeng was a double agent, and he betrayed the Demon King in the end. So when he found out that the Demon King’s plans were exposed, he guessed it was Lou Jianfeng. But in the novel, Lou Jianfeng didn’t ruin the Demon King’s plans, he only snuck up on them at a critical moment.
And now Lou Jianfeng actually leaked the Demon King’s plans, leading to them failing.
Looks like the plot is a complete mess now.
“Where’s Lou Jianfeng?” Bai Yang asked, he didn’t see him anywhere.
“He snuck up on the Demon King and ran away after being heavily injured.” Hua Feihua spat. His pretty face was stained with blood, making him look coquettish.
Snuck up on the Demon King?
Bai Yang startled, immediately moving closer to the Demon King: “Your Highness, are you injured?”
He tried to look him over but was stopped.
But Bai Yang still saw the wound on his back. It split through his clothes and his skin was a terrible sight. The Demon King’s ability to recover was very strong; from this, with his wound drenched in blood and unable to heal, one could tell how heavy Lou Jianfeng’s attack would have been.
Bai Yang sucked in a cold breath.
The Demon King’s face was a bit pale.
He must’ve been injured heavily, or else he wouldn’t be trapped here. Knowing his strength, he could’ve escaped even if he couldn’t destroy the Boundary Pillar. There was only one explanation for him being stuck here——It wasn’t that he didn’t want to leave, but he couldn’t leave.
“Your Highness……” Bai Yang’s voice trembled.
“Such a small injury like this is nothing.” The Demon King shook his head, “You shouldn’t have come here.”
Bai Yang said: “Wherever Your Highness is, I will be.”
“Didn’t you go with Zhou Ying? Have you accomplished what you wanted?” The Demon King asked softly.
Bai Yang took a deep breath and stared into his eyes: “Almost.”
The Demon King sighed and patted his head, “I’m sorry……”
Bai Yang was shocked, “Why are you apologizing?”
“Because, I can’t help you, and I don’t know what you’re trying to accomplish……”
Bai Yang didn’t expect that answer. He grabbed his hand and said: “It has nothing to do with you, you don’t need to apologize.”
“I hurt you.” Regret was written on the Demon King’s face, “But you still came over……”
Bai Yang immediately cut him off, “I came over because I wanted to!”
The two stared at each other.
“What do we do now?” Like a killjoy, Hua Feihua cut them off.
An inescapable trap, surrounded by countless cultivators. There was no hope no matter how you looked at it.
“Zhou Ying, who is that? He’s of the demon race!” Someone yelled at Zhou Ying.
The human cultivators became more and more agitated.
Zhou Ying’s cultivation had suddenly risen to an unimaginable level, just one step away from ascending, and he had a member of the demon race at his side.
Zhao Qinger tugged at Zhou Ying’s arm in warning. Zhou Ying opened his mouth and yelled like he didn’t notice it: “He’s my father!”
It caused an uproar in the people.
Sect Leader Zhao’s voice spread throughout the whole mountain, “A member of the demon race as your father? Zhou Ying, think about it carefully before you answer again.”
Zhao Qinger said impatiently: “Zhou Ying!”
But Zhou Ying said calmly: “That’s right. He’s my father. I’m mixed blood.”
His voice similarly spread through the whole mountain.
Zhao Qinger let go of him in shock.
The human cultivators discussed loudly amongst themselves.
Sect Leader Zhao asked again: “Then which side are you on? The human realm? Or the demon realm?”
Zhou Ying replied without hesitation, “The human realm!”
Zhao Qinger let out the breath she’d been holding and Feng Ming patted her chest.
Sect Leader Zhao continued: “Then you should’ve known that the demon race has committed an unforgivable crime by invading the human realm and starting a massacre at the Soaring Clouds Sect! Zhou Ying, with your cultivation level, you are responsible for protecting the human realm!”
He paused, and pointed at Bai Yang: “Kill them! In the name of justice!”
Zhou Ying’s expression immediately became ugly.
The surrounding people cheered, their voices sounding loudly, “Kill them! Kill them!”
Bai Yang looked over at the sound. He saw Zhou Ying standing alone, oh so far away from him. The two girls at his side were unsettled, trying to persuade Zhou Ying.
With that battle just now, both the demon and human race suffered heavily. The demon race sacrificed their blood and drew up a spell barrier that could allow them to rest temporarily.
Everyone knew, what comes next will be the decisive battle.
The Demon King’s cultivation was deep and incomprehensible, nobody present could defeat them. Even if they were to all gang up and kill him, they would suffer heavy casualties. Zhou Ying’s arrival became their hope, someone almighty of the River Crossing Stage, just one step away from ascending. Someone equal to the Demon King in power. As long as he is willing to do it, this battle will end.
And so, everyone present tried to force Zhou Ying to strike.
“Kill them, kill them!”
The voices came in waves, each one stronger than the last.
Zhao Qinger said to Zhou Ying: “Zhou Ying, they’re the demon race, they killed countless of our brothers and sisters, you have to think clearly……”
Feng Ming also said: “Zhou Ying, as long as you strike, everyone will see you as a hero, all your previous wrongdoings will be forgotten.”
Zhao Qinger said again: “Even if he’s your father, he never raised you. And he kidnapped us many times. I know you feel deeply, but this concerns the resentment between the human and demon realms. You can’t lose your head because of personal sentiments……”
Zhou Ying stood emotionlessly, like he couldn’t hear any of the voices from around him, still standing there motionlessly.
“He won’t strike!” Someone shouted, “He’s a traitor!”
The voices yelling “Kill them” quieted down.
Phoenix City’s Lord looked at Zhou Ying, his voice spreading far and wide, “Zhou Ying, are you willing to fight for the human realm?”
Numerous pairs of eyes fixed onto Zhou Ying.
Unseen to everyone, Zhou Ying clenched his fist.
He still didn’t speak.
Everyone was waiting for his answer. For a moment, the whole sect was very quiet.
At that moment, a loud voice sounded, “Come, come kill me!”
The people looked towards the sound, and saw that Bai Yang had walked to the middle of the spell barrier and raised his hands high, “Zhou Ying, now is the best time to take my life!”
That excited the surrounding cultivators, and they shouted, “Kill him! Kill him!”
Under everyone’s pressure, Zhou Ying finally exploded, “All of you shut up! Don’t try to pressure me with justice! I will walk my own path, and none of you can force me!”
“Xie Zetian is my father, and today I will protect him! If one can’t even protect their own family, then how can they speak about defending justice!”
“Even if he killed others, I will not allow anyone to touch a hair on my father’s body!”
His words were extremely imposing, adding onto the pressure of his spirituality. It awed the entire mountain.
Bai Yang was completely stunned. A moment later, his heart shook.
He never would have thought that Zhou Ying wouldn’t hesitate to set himself against the human realm, for him.
If it isn’t for the Dragon Proud Sky, how bold!
Zhou Ying’s words angered the people.
“Traitor!”
“He’s a traitor!”
Someone yelled loudly: “Seeing as he doesn’t want to help us, we’ll do it ourselves!”
Everyone had already become restless, and at that incitement, they all rushed towards the spell barrier.
The Demon King stood in silence since the beginning, face slightly pale. Seeing everyone rushing over, he immediately stepped forward, all of his spirituality erupting out.
A loud hum sounded.
The formless spirituality spasmed inside the spiral barrier, engulfing the entire mountain’s peak in an instant.
The people were blown back by the invisible strength.
“Attack!”
The City Lord was the first one unable to hold back. He jumped down from the tower like a big bird spreading its wings, and rushed to the spell barrier, striking it with both palms.
The barrier shook.
Spirituality and magic power collided, causing strong shockwaves.
The sounds of battle sounded from every direction, and a countless number of cultivators rushed up/
Bai Yang backed up to the Demon King’s side, “Your Highness.”
The Demon King’s attention was on the surroundings, and he hummed in acknowledgement at Bai Yang’s words.
“I’m afraid we might not be able to escape.” Bai Yang said.
The Demon King finally looked at him, and said seriously: “No, we can go. Zhou Ying is willing to protect you. When the barrier breaks, we should be able to send you away with our combined power.”
After that, he yelled: “Zhou Ying, don’t forget what you just said! I’m leaving Xie Zetian to you!”
Bai Yang grabbed his arm and said: “Your Highness, I only wish to die together with you.”
The Demon King patted his head, “I only wish for you to live.”
Bai Yang’s hand trembled. He squashed down his emotions and said: “Your Highness, have you found the Boundary Pillar yet?”
The Demon King shook his head.
Bai Yang took a deep breath, “Even if we’re going to die, we have to complete our mission.”
After he spoke, he backed up to the middle of the barrier, and gathered up all of his magic power to smack into the ground.
The magic power of a master wasn’t just for show, the entire mountain’s peak shook, and the ground began to crack open.
Sect Leader Zhao was shocked and he yelled: “Stop!”
And then he gathered up the surrounding people and ordered: “We go together, we have to make him stop!”
Bai Yang’s magic power sank down without pause. Soon after, his magic power met a wave of intense spirituality deep in the peak of the mountain.
Bai Yang spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Right then, a hand appeared to steady him, transferring magic power into him, alleviating the pressure on him.
He turned and saw the Demon King’s pale, handsome face.
Bai Yang grit his teeth and continued sending his magic power downwards.
Sect Leader Zhao looked like he’d gone insane as he led his men to attack the barrier.
The floor swayed, shaking everyone along with it. Soon after, a loud rumbling sounded from the ground, and a huge crack opened up on the peak of the mountain. A gray pillar emerged from the ground, and on top of it sat a stone table, shining like white jade.
“The Boundary Pillar!” Someone cried.
Sect Leader Zhao’s expression became ugly.
“Why would the Boundary Pillar be here?” Phoenix City’s Lord was also shocked.
Hearing that, everyone else was shocked as well, not knowing what to do.
Only the once listless members of the demon race perked up.
Hua Feihua laughed loudly, “Xie Zetian, look at you! Good, we have to break the Boundary Pillar even if it means we die here!”
Under everyone’s eyes, the pillar gradually rose.
Sect Leader Zhao shouted loudly: “Everyone together, we can’t let them destroy the Boundary Pillar!”
At that very moment, the human cultivators panicked as they originally had the upper hand. Hearing Sect Leader Zhao’s words, they immediately rushed over like lunatics, trying to protect the Boundary Pillar before the demon race could destroy it.
The hastily drawn barrier had already been worn down, and couldn’t stand much more attacking. As the pillar stopped rising, the barrier broke.
A countless number of people rushed over, the Demon King stood lowering in their way, sending Sect Leader Zhao and the City Lord flying back with a strike.
Bai Yang jumped onto the stone pillar, gathering up his magic power and yelling: “Take one more step forward and I’ll destroy the Boundary Pillar!”
He pressed a hand to the white stone tablet.
“Stop!” Sect Leader Zhao shouted, and the people behind him stopped.
Nobody else moved forward either.
Hua Feihua yelled: “Xie Zetian, what are you waiting for? Destroy it!”
The Demon King turned to look at Bai Yang, his thoughts clearly written in his eyes.
Bai Yang shook his head.
The Demon King frowned slightly.
Bai Yang yelled at Zhou Ying, who was standing far away: “Zhou Ying, it’s time to hold up your promise, or I’ll destroy the Boundary Pillar!”
As he spoke, he raised his hand. Black magic power gathered in his palm. With one strike, the table was sure to break into pieces.
In that instant.
A streak of light flashed forward from afar. It was Zhou Ying’s Dragon Blade. The Dragon Blade was headed directly for Bai Yang. If he really struck down on the Boundary Pillar, the Dragon Blade would pierce through his chest. If he wanted to live, he had no choice but to retreat.
From the Dragon Blade’s manner, Zhou Ying had no desire to kill him, he only wanted to force him down.
But how could Bai Yang let go of this opportunity?
He stood up straight, withdrawing his magic power. He smiled as he greeted the glowing Dragon Blade.
He thought: The mission is almost over.
Xiao Ling, Ji Yuan, and the Demon King, we will return to the real world together……
With that earnest dream, he came closer and closer to the sword with a smile on his face.
The Dragon Blade was extremely fast, it was just a split second away from Bai Yang.
Bai Yang closed his eyes, welcoming the last moment.
He was suddenly pushed aside by an enormous force. Bai Yang opened his eyes in shock and was met with the Demon King’s extremely pale face.
The Dragon Blade directly pierced through the Demon King’s shoulder, leaving behind a gaping hole.
“Your Highness!” Bai Yang cried out, voice trembling.
The two of them fell off the pillar, landing on the ground.
The Demon King spoke sternly ”Why didn’t you dodge? Did you want to die?”
Then he turned to Zhou Ying, who rushed over: “Didn’t you swear that you would protect Xie Zetian? You’re going back on your word so soon?”
Zhou Ying was shocked and scared, he didn’t think Bai Yang wouldn’t even try to dodge.
“You…… Are you okay?” Zhou Ying asked in between harsh pants, wanting to move closer.
The Demon King suddenly raised his hand and drew a line in the air, and an invisible barrier instantly blocked Zhou Ying’s way.
Bai Yang’s plan was ruined, he was in panic and didn’t know what to do, “Zhou Ying! I can’t escape this today, my only request is that I die at your hands, let me go with dignity!”
The Demon King turned his head and stared at Bai Yang in disbelief: “What did you say?”
Bai Yang blurted everything out in a moment of desperation. He trembled under the Demon King’s scary gaze but then mustered up the courage to say: “Your Highness, I don’t care if you believe me or not. The only way for us to leave is for me to die.”
The Demon King didn’t believe a word, “Even if every last one of us dies here, you will not.”
He turned to speak to Zhou Ying: “You said you would protect Xetian, then please take him away…… No.”
He paused, then lowered his head, the head that he always held high and proud, and said: “I’m begging you.”
Zhou Ying froze.
Bai Yang also froze, he couldn’t believe that someone as proud as the Demon King would lower his head to a puny human.
“Your Highness……” He tugged on the Demon King’s sleeve.
“Zhou Ying! As long as you can protect the Boundary Pillar, we’ll agree to let your father go!” Sect Leader Zhao yelled, rushing towards the pillar.
“Stupid old dog!” Disregarding his pain, Hua Feihua leaped towards the pillar, swearing to destroy the Boundary Pillar. His jet-black hair was a mess, and his clothes were stained bright red with blood. As he leaped, he was like a blooming rose.
But he was gravely injured, and the Sect Leader still had countless men behind him. As he leaped up, countless blades hurtled towards him like rain, piercing through him before he could touch the pillar.
Bai Yang’s pupils shrunk.
The Demon King pushed Bai Yang to Zhou Ying, yelling “Leave!” before going to catch Hua Feihua.
Bai Yang was held back by Zhou Ying, unable to struggle, “Let go of me! Zhou Ying!”
Zhou Ying grit his teeth and held onto him with all his strength.
Hua Feihua used his last breath to say to the Demon King: “Destroy…… The Boundary Pilar……”
And then he closed those charming eyes.
“I will.” The Demon King’s voice was steady. He spared a glance at Bai Yang before leaping onto the tall pillar.
Bai Yang saw his determination from that glance.
Strong magic power exploded, changing the skys. The cultivators near the pillar all melted into a rain of blood and splattered onto the ground, dead with nothing remaining.
Sect Leader Zhao and the City Lord both spat out blood and collapsed.
The lower-leveled cultivators couldn’t even go near the pillar under the pressure of the magic power.
They could only watch as the Demon King was about to destroy the Boundary Pillar.
“Zhou Ying!” Sect Leader Zhao screamed!
“Zhou Ying!”, Zhao Qinger and Feng Ming screamed as well.
With no more apprehensions, Zhou Ying released Bai Yang, dashing forward in a streak of light. Bai Yang followed suit as a streak of black.
The Dragon Blade in Zhou Ying’s hand sounded clearly, and stabbed towards the Demon King without hesitation.
Bai Yang turned into a streak of black and followed closely.
At that moment.
The immense spirituality from both sides resisted each other.
The table on top of the pillar cracked, before crumbling.
A loud buzz sounded from the sky and violent winds blew through, like something had cracked open.
“AHHHH! The barrier between the human and demon realms is gone! Sect Leader Zhao howled, beating at the ground with his fists, “It’s all my fault!!!”
A line of raging flames suddenly ignited on the horizon, burning across it, like it wanted to burn down everything. After that, the invisible barrier flickered, and disappeared.
A huge vortex appeared in the sky, red light flickering inside it.
The whole world was shaking.
Like it was the end of the world.
The cultivators all panicked in fear, causing chaos everywhere.
It was only extremely quiet around the pillar.
Zhou Ying stood there blankly, in his hand was the Dragon Blade.
The Demon King knelt at the bottom of the pillar, holding Bai Yang limp body in his arms and patting his face repeatedly, “Zetian…… Don’t fall asleep…… Don’t fall asleep……”
Something wet slid out from the corner of his eye.
Bai Yang struggled to open his eyes, trying his best to look at him. He wanted to tell him to not cry, we won’t die for real.
But he couldn’t speak.
There was a huge hole through his chest, and each painful breath brought him within an inch of his life.
But he couldn’t die yet. At the last moment, he used all his strength to maintain his spirit, using the last barrier of South Sea Mermaid’s Pearl to block off part of the force, slowing down his death.
Don’t cry……
He tried his best to say, we won’t die.
But darkness invaded him, he closed his eyes weakly, feigning death like he had planned.
The Demon King asked quietly: “Zetian? Are you gone?”
Bai Yang couldn’t reply.
A moment later, the Demon King’s voice sounded lightly, “Ah, you’re really gone.”
Bai Yang’s spirit curled up on itself.
The Demon King’s voice sounded again. It was light and soft, “Zetian, do you know what day it is today?”
Bai Yang struggled to maintain his already dissipating spirit, waiting for the last opportunity.
What day is it?
I don’t know……
It hurts……
The pain of a spirit slowly dissipating was unimaginable.
“Today is the fifth day, we were supposed to hold the ceremony today….. You promised me that you’ll become my Queen, you broke your promise……” The Demon King spoke softly.
Bai Yang froze.
So……
It’s already the fifth day?
“AHHHH——!”
Zhou Ying’s pained cry resonated throughout, undulating intensely.
Bai Yang was about to go unconscious, when suddenly a robotic voice sounded: “Mission Complete, preparing to leave! Three, two, one——!
It’s finally over.
Bai Yang sank into complete darkness.
