Chapter 721

The Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun nodded; with a mere thought, the King of Shadow Demons·Nemos dissolved into a wisp of black mist.

Its soul force likewise scattered.

King of Shadow Demons·Nemos:???

I'm a super big boss, the target of the quest—just showed up and vanished?

Director, weren't we agreed there'd be plenty of camera shots?

Let me be clear: my pay must not be reduced by a single coin!

…

Luo Chenyu watched the dissolving King of Shadow Demons·Nemos, silently sighing inside.

Even at death, the fellow wore a look of utter confusion.

He had no idea what had happened.

Better this way—he suffered less on his journey.

At the very moment the King of Shadow Demons·Nemos died, Luo Chenyu stirred slightly and opened his quest panel—sure enough, one task now showed as completed.

At this moment…

As long as he solved the teleportation array problem, the World Origin quest would be finished.

Teleportation array?

Luo Chenyu remained unmoved by this.

He intended to complete a higher-difficulty quest: to permanently resolve the Shadow Realm's issue by either destroying it or removing it entirely.

Now, the Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun had become his temporary subordinate.

Then…

Asking it to move house shouldn't be a problem!

Luo Chenyu turned his gaze toward the Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun…

"What further orders, my lord?"

The Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun knew well that the wise adapt to circumstances; seeing the man's gaze shift, he hurriedly asked.

"I need you to do a few things now, but rest assured—I won't ask you to die."

Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun: "…"

No need to say more—the rest would only deepen his dread.

"My lord, speak!"

"First, and most important: take the Shadow Realm away from here, travel to other parts of the Eternal Ten Thousand Worlds, and gather intelligence for me—specifically about the Eternal Arena."

Luo Chenyu suddenly recalled something and added: "You know the Eternal Arena, right?"

"Only by reputation—we of our race cannot enter!"

The Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun fell silent for a moment, then said: "But my lord, rest assured—gathering intelligence is my specialty!"

Luo Chenyu nodded.

Satisfied.

"Second task: even simpler—collect rare treasures and marvels for me. Can you manage?"

Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun: "…"

Sure enough, this guy still has the greedy-for-money attribute... 0

The decision to survive earlier was the wisest path.

Collecting treasures? He could do that too!!

At this moment,

The Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun had only one thought: get this terrifying man and his demonic "subordinate" out as soon as possible, then flee far away with the Shadow Realm.

"My lord, what's the third task?"

"None—only these two!"

Luo Chenyu smiled and continued: "Hand me the treasures you mentioned earlier. After you send me out, destroy the teleportation array linking to Blue Star—the Lost Land."

"Then you may leave."

Hearing this, the Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun was overjoyed.

Immediately,

With a mere wave of his hand, boundless treasures appeared in the hall.

Luo Chenyu was ecstatic.

No wonder the Shadow Realm held so many treasures.

Auto-collect!

Countless notification messages flashed before his eyes.

In mere moments, everything in the hall vanished, absorbed into Luo Chenyu's backpack.

He had no time to examine them in detail—he tucked away the girl in red.

"Send me out!"

"My lord, safe travels!"

The Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun eagerly summoned a spatial gate, watching Luo Chenyu depart.

"Phew… Though temporarily without freedom, at least I'm alive."

"Humans are truly terrifying… No wonder they're the most promising race in the Eternal Ten Thousand Worlds!"

After his sigh,

The Lord of the Shadow Realm·Peldun linked to the Shadow Realm's core source and utterly destroyed the teleportation array.

Then, start moving!

This damned place, it doesn't want to stay a moment longer.
