Chapter 528: Waving a Hand, Without Taking a Single Cloud

This voice was not loud, yet it rang out clearly in the ears of everyone present.

Moreover, no one could figure out where the speaker was; it was as if the voice had sounded from all directions at once.

Student Zhuge Ni's delicate body trembled uncontrollably, and she lifted her head to look at the sky in a daze.

This voice... she was very familiar with it.

Is it that person?

Just as the crowd was wondering who the speaker could be, a man and a woman appeared silently above Qingcheng.

Even though they had appeared suddenly, their presence did not feel abrupt in the slightest.

It was as if wherever they were, that place was the center of the world.

The man had a kind face, yet that smile, full of goodwill, somehow revealed a hint of wickedness, and his deep black eyes were like bottomless pools.

He stepped through the void with ease, as if the Thunder Demon Emperor before him did not exist at all.

A strange aura swirled around the man, and the sunlight filtering through the clouds seemed to distort as it fell upon him.

The woman beside him was tall with proud curves; a breeze stirred her skirt, creating ripples along her long legs, and her snow-white skin was the only light in Qingcheng.

And looking higher, the woman's eyes made one completely ignore her figure and appearance.

They were a pair of double-pupils like crystalline gemstones!

It was as if the brilliant stars from above the nine heavens had been plucked, refined, and embedded into her eyes.

Those with weaker strength would be unable to stop themselves from sinking in after just one glance, never to wake again.

"Are you... Ye Lin?" Huang Huang Litian, an investigator in the crowd, recognized the man who had suddenly appeared.

However, he was still a bit hesitant to be certain.

"Yo? Isn't this Investigator Huang? Long time no see! Do you have a partner yet? If you do, I'll come visit your house tonight."

Ye Lin also recognized an old acquaintance; this old rascal had been very diligent in tracking him down back then.

"No need, you are too kind."

The corners of Huang Huang Litian's mouth twitched slightly, and he felt a myriad of emotions in his heart.

It had only been a few years, yet the child who had once matched wits with him had now grown into a titan whose back he could only look up to.

"You all treat this Emperor as air, is that it?"

Seeing that Ye Lin had appeared and started chatting with the people of Qingcheng, ignoring his existence, a surge of anger rose in the Thunder Demon Emperor's heart.

But he also dared not act rashly.

Although the Ye Lin before him looked full of openings, he always felt that if he dared to make a move, he would surely die.

This feeling came inexplicably, and the Thunder Demon Emperor did not know why.

When the Thunder Demon Emperor spoke, the people of Qingcheng finally realized that there was still a Demon Emperor eyeing them like a tiger, and their faces turned pale again in an instant.

"Oh, almost forgot about you. Look at my memory."

Ye Lin patted his forehead, his expression somewhat helpless.

"You play with lightning, right? I'll give you a bit of lightning to play with."

Ye Lin waved his hand lightly, and a lightning ball the size of a fingernail flew toward the Thunder Demon Emperor.

This comical scene left everyone dumbfounded.

Seriously, buddy?

"Just this?"

The Thunder Demon Emperor's hanging heart finally settled; looking at the fingernail-sized lightning ball, he couldn't help but smile.

"Putting on an act for so long, I really thought you were someone of importance; turns out you're just a clown playing to the gallery."

"Let this Emperor show you what true lightning power is!"

As he spoke, the Thunder Demon Emperor prepared to unleash his full strength, but at that moment, the fingernail-sized lightning ball suddenly exploded.

Boom!

The fingernail-sized lightning ball expanded in an instant, turning into a terrifying thunderstorm that illuminated everything around in silver-white.

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the terrifying lightning energy surged toward the Thunder Demon Emperor and the demon army behind him.

Wherever the silver-white lightning passed, nothing could survive, and even the intangible space was torn apart.

The Thunder Demon Emperor didn't even have time to let out a scream before he was reduced to ashes.

The moment the lightning faded, both the Thunder Demon Emperor and the five Demon Kings had vanished.

Along with them, the dense demon army evaporated into thin air, leaving behind only a massive, barren crater.

Shock.

Stunned.

Confusion.

Disbelief.

All sorts of emotions surfaced on the faces of the people of Qingcheng.

The Demon Emperor... died?

Five Demon Kings, along with so many demon troops, also died?

Just... with a wave of a hand?

This scene of such extreme ups and downs made many suspect they were dreaming and hadn't woken up yet.

Such a powerful Demon Emperor, swatted to death just like swatting a fly with a wave of a hand.

Then, how terrifying must that man's strength be?

With a wave of his hand, he took no clouds with him, but he took the lives of all the demons.

Student Zhuge Ni looked at Ye Lin, her expression extremely complex.

Watching the Thunder Demon Emperor, who had driven her to a dead end, fail to withstand even a casual move from Ye Lin.

For the first time, a sense of inferiority rose in her heart.

She might... never be able to catch up to that figure in her entire life.

And when she saw Student Zhuge Yi beside Ye Lin, the sense of humiliation in Student Zhuge Ni's heart became even more intense.

Even her figure and appearance, which she took pride in, lost their advantage at this moment.

She still remembered telling Ye Lin once that she and Ye Lin were no longer people of the same world.

The bullet fired years ago was now striking her right between the brows.

Student Zhuge Yi was also looking at Student Zhuge Ni.

Regarding this cousin she had never met, she couldn't describe what she was feeling.

But one thing she was certain of was that she did not like Student Zhuge Ni.

Although Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing leaving her at the Student Zhuge family and taking Student Zhuge Ni away was not something to blame on Student Zhuge Ni.

But Student Zhuge Ni was a true beneficiary.

If not for Student Zhuge Ni, she would not have spent such a long, agonizing time in the Student Zhuge family, with her memories even being repeatedly wiped and sealed.

Student Zhuge Yi really couldn't bring herself to let it go.

"Let's go." Student Zhuge Yi urged Ye Lin.

She didn't want to see Student Zhuge Ni again; it would remind her of those unhappy days.

"Wait! I need to take care of something!"

Ye Lin came to Student Zhuge Ni with enthusiasm and helped the disheveled woman up.

Student Zhuge Ni stared blankly at Ye Lin, a glimmer of hope appearing in her beautiful eyes; could it be... that there is still a place for me in his heart?
