At the moment of dawn, the illusion began to collapse.
Xiao Tangqiu watched reluctantly as everything in front of him began to disappear. Finally, he turned around, took a deep look at Meng Xinghe’s gravestone, and closed his eyes.
…
When Xiao Tangqiu opened his eyes again, he saw that he had returned to the labyrinth. Opposite him was Lily Marlene, beside him was Shen Yuan… and he was holding the Light God’s Sword tightly in his hand.
He actually pulled out the Light God’s Sword!
He actually pulled out the Light God’s Sword in the illusion!
Xiao Tangqiu was excited for a moment but quickly got a hold of himself. It was likely that the illusion was the Light God’s Sword’s test. He passed the test so he successfully pulled out the Light God’s Sword!
At this moment, he was shocked. So why did Shen Yuan fail the test of the Light God’s Sword?
If the Light God’s Sword’s test was only at the level of the test he just passed, there was no way someone with a firm heart like Shen Yuan couldn’t pass!
Before he could think about this question in detail, Lily Marlene suddenly laughed, “I didn’t expect you to draw the Light God’s Sword, I really admired you.”
Xiao Tangqiu looked at Lily Marlene vigilantly. Although he pulled out the Light God’s Sword, he still didn’t feel the great power this ancient stone sword was supposed to give him… If this was just an ordinary stone sword, it would be too much of a joke!
The corners of Lily Marlene’s lips raised and she beckoned to Xiao Tangqiu, “Give me the Light God’s Sword and I’ll let you go.”
Xiao Tangqiu sneered, “Who are you kidding? You killed my friend and still want me to give you the sword?” Tang Mianmian’s body was still lying nearby, not even cold yet!
Lily Marlene laughed, “Oh? So do you want to be buried with your friend?”
Although Xiao Tangqiu also had doubts about the Light God’s Sword, he was not willing to compromise with Lily Marlene at all. He also laughed, “This Light God’s Sword can kill even the Abyss Demon, not to mention you? Are you not afraid?”
“Afraid?” Lily Marlene raised the corners of her lips and showed a sarcastic smile, “Afraid of a mere human?”
She scoffed and said, “Since you don’t want to take the initiative to hand over the sword, then I’ll have to get it myself.”
Was Lily Marlene coming to snatch it?
Xiao Tangqiu’s heart tensed and he was fully alert. He clenched the Light God’s Sword in his hand, but he still felt that the sword was just an ordinary stone sword, it did not give him any power at all.
Lily Marlene walked slowly towards Xiao Tangqiu, her movements were unhurried. She obviously looked down on Xiao Tangqiu. Xiao Tangqiu clenched the Light God’s Sword in one hand, then quickly took out a crossbow and shot it towards Lily Marlene.
Hit!
However, before Xiao Tangqiu could breathe a sigh of relief, he was shocked to see the bolt had disappeared the moment it penetrated Lily Marlene and seemed to melt and be absorbed by Lily Marlene’s body.

Xiao Tangqiu gritted his teeth and said, “Never!”
Lily Marlene faintly said, “You can’t even defeat me, let alone that lord.”
As soon as she raised her hand, Xiao Tangqiu was knocked back.
Xiao Tangqiu flew a few meters away and fell heavily to the ground, but he still held on to the stone sword in his hand tightly and was unwilling to let go.
At this moment, Shen Yuan suddenly called to Xiao Tangqiu, “Throw the Light God’s Sword to me and I will defeat Lily Marlene!”
Xiao Tangqiu had always trusted Shen Yuan unconditionally. He subconsciously raised his hand to throw the stone sword over, but suddenly he put his hand down.
Shen Yuan looked puzzled, “What’s wrong? Throw the sword to me!”
Xiao Tangqiu pursed his lips and gave Shen Yuan a deep look.
Shen Yuan is a little anxious, “Hurry up and throw the sword to me!”
Xiao Tangqiu gritted his teeth, suddenly got up from the ground, then turned and ran in the opposite direction.
But in a flash, he was blocked by Lily Marlene who suddenly appeared in front of him.
The witch moved in front of Xiao Tangqiu in an instant, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him up. She squinted and smiled, “Where else can you escape? Give me the sword obediently.”
Xiao Tangqiu gritted his teeth and said, “You. Are. Dreaming!”
Xiao Tangqiu was strangled by the witch until he couldn’t breathe anymore. As the air in his lungs became less and less, he was on the verge of suffocation, and patches of blackness appeared before his eyes…
Was he dying? He was probably dying…
But he was not reconciled, he had clearly found the Light God’s Sword!
Not reconciled… He was not reconciled!
At this moment, Xiao Tangqiu suddenly felt the Light God’s Sword in his hand getting hot, so hot that he couldn’t hold it, and his consciousness also regained sobriety.
He gritted his teeth and raised the sword with the last of his will and slashed!
Because his consciousness was struggling between being awake and blurry, he had absolutely no idea what happened at this moment, and when he came back to his senses, everything was over—
Xiao Tangqiu opened his eyes and found that the sword in his hand was stuck in Lily Marlene’s heart. Lily Marlene looked at him in disbelief, never expecting all of this to happen.
In the next second, Lily Marlene released her grip on Xiao Tangqiu’s neck. Her lips moved a few times as if she was saying something.
But before he could hear clearly, Lily Marlene disappeared in a burst of white light.
Xiao Tangqiu took a step back in disbelief… He actually killed Lily Marlene! He actually succeeded in killing this witch who had entangled them in multiple instances!
If the sword in his hand was not the legendary Light God’s Sword, he would even think that it was all a scam. Demons were the best at deceiving and playing with people’s hearts, after all.
But now, he successfully killed the witch Lily Marlene with the Light God’s Sword!
Xiao Tangqiu was excited for a moment but then became at a loss. At this moment, Shen Yuan, who was nearby, suddenly reached out to him, “Give me the sword and I will kill the Abyss Demon.”
Xiao Tangqiu stared at Shen Yuan for a moment before slowly asking, “Why? Why should I give you the sword?”
Shen Yuan said calmly, “Let me end all this. The people we know have all died one by one, you shouldn’t want to see anyone die again, right? Let me kill the Abyss Demon and end it all.”
Xiao Tangqiu looked back at Tang Mianmian’s body and fell into silence. The people he knew had died one by one. Su Manluo, Duan Hongzhen, Xue Junli, Yu Fuling, Sai Lulu, Tang Mianmian… These teammates and friends who once fought alongside him all died in this instance. If someone could kill the Abyss Demon, this would all end, right?
But was it really so?
Shen Yuan repeated it again, “Give me the sword and let me end this.”
Xiao Tangqiu turned his head and stared into Shen Yuan’s eyes, “If I give you the sword, will you really end it all?”
Shen Yuan said without hesitation, “Of course.”
Xiao Tangqiu, “Really?”
Shen Yuan said lightly, “Of course, like you, I am the one who most wants to end all this.”
Xiao Tangqiu raised the corner of his lips, “Really?”
Shen Yuan took a deep look at Xiao Tangqiu, “Of course, give me the sword.”
Xiao Tangqiu smiled, “Do you want this sword so much?”
Shen Yuan said lightly, “With this sword, I can defeat the Abyss Demon and end it all.”
Xiao Tangqiu spoke as if he was speaking to himself, “Do you want this sword so much? In order to get this sword, you did not hesitate to become Shen Yuan, telling us that there is an artifact that can defeat the Abyss Demon. Deceiving us to come here and use us to get this sword… Do you really want this sword that much? Or do you just want to destroy the only weapon that can defeat you?”
Shen Yuan took a deep look at Xiao Tangqiu, then smiled darkly, “…When did you find out?”
Xiao Tangqiu instantly felt chilled, “As I thought… You turned into his appearance a long time ago and you’ve been lying to us…”
“Since when? From the beginning of this instance? No, it should be from the last instance when you told us about the existence of the Light God’s Sword… I didn’t succeed in resurrecting Shen Yuan at all, right?”
Shen Yuan… No, it should be the Abyss Demon, smiled, changed his appearance, and returned to the appearance of the Abyss Demon.
Wearing a black trench coat, a black mask, and holding a black top hat in his black-gloved hands.
“You are very smart…”
Xiao Tangqiu stared blankly at the Abyss Demon before him and couldn’t help feeling like he had fallen into an ice cellar. It turned out that Shen Yuan had not successfully revived from the beginning to the end. It turned out that right from the start, the resurrected Shen Yuan was the Abyss Demon’s pretense!
“You turned into Shen Yuan, told us about the existence of the Light God’s Sword, and tricked us into the Light God’s Labyrinth just to get the Light God’s Sword that is said to be able to defeat you… and then destroy it, right?” He asked through gritted teeth.
The Abyss Demon did not deny it, “You are indeed a smart child.”
Xiao Tangqiu stared at the Abyss Demon, his mood extremely complicated. Shen Yuan died because of the Abyss Demon and Tang Mianmian and the others died only because the Abyss Demon wanted to get the Light God’s Sword… He was extremely upset but also powerless. After all, to a great demon like the Abyss Demon, what was the life of ordinary human beings?
The Abyss Demon smiled, “Although you are a smart child, I prefer a good child. Be good, come here, give me that sword.”
Xiao Tangqiu took a step back with the sword in hand.
The Abyss Demon repeated it unhurriedly, “Be good, give me the sword.”
Xiao Tangqiu sneered, “Scram!”
The Abyss Demon sighed helplessly, and then he said in a low voice, “A child who is not good will be punished…”
Xiao Tangqiu clenched the sword even tighter and took a few steps back.
The Abyss Demon unhurriedly took out a silver gun from the black top hat.
Xiao Tangqiu’s eyes widened. It was Shen Yuan’s magic weapon!
The Abyss Demon raised his gun and aimed at Xiao Tangqiu, “I’ll give you one last chance… Give me the sword.”
Xiao Tangqiu clenched his sword and without hesitation, turned and ran. And just as he turned around, the man behind him pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang!
The gunshot rang out and a bullet pierced through his heart!
Oh, no! Poor kitten, don’t lose heart, you need to fight!
