Chapter 283

Three days later.

Two people and one demon left the plain covered with lush grass and wild flowers.

Behind them, groups of men and women were still mechanically repeating the actions they were most familiar with before they died.

Just like in the past, day after day, year after year.

The Old Demon He Teyao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Zhang Xingyu panting: "Kid. This time, thanks to you. If it weren't for you waking me and that junior, we would have been left on that plain forever."

Beside him, Demon King Harry wiped his cherry-red little mouth and then took out a bright red fruit from his magic ring.

"This is for you. Also, consider that you are owed one by me." Demon King Harry said to Zhang Xingyu.

Zhang Xingyu took the fruit and then stretched his hand out in front of He Teyao.

"Alex, the grace of saving a life is as heavy as a mountain. This time, what are you going to thank me with?"

He Teyao's old face flushed red. He searched his magic ring for a long time but couldn't find a suitable gift of gratitude.

He couldn't bear to part with anything too valuable. Anything not valuable enough wouldn't be enough to repay Zhang Xingyu's life-saving grace.

After thinking for a long time, he looked up at Zhang Xingyu and said: "Kid. You saved me, and I saved you. We are even."

Zhang Xingyu glanced at him: "If you say so, does that mean I don't have to go get that holy fire?"

He Teyao's face turned purple: "You still have to get the holy fire. However, if you help me get the holy fire, I will give you another thick gift of gratitude!"

"Tch!"

Zhang Xingyu stopped paying attention to him and turned to look at the sky above the plain.

There once was a mysterious space there, Demon God Heaven-Shaking's consciousness space.

There, Zhang Xingyu experienced life-and-death moments.

There, a battle between justice and evil took place.

In the end, evil did not escape the punishment of justice.

The white big man died, and the evil remnant soul was extinguished.

At that moment, the black big man originally had hope of survival.

If he swallowed the remnant soul fragments left by the white big man, the black big man could have survived.

However, the black big man chose death.

He said that Demon God Heaven-Shaking was already dead.

In this world, there should no longer be Demon God Heaven-Shaking's consciousness space.

The black big man died. His soul body turned into streaks of white light, like beautiful butterflies, flying and dissipating between heaven and earth.

A crystal-clear tear slid quietly down Zhang Xingyu's cheek.

Zhang Xingyu turned around and shouted loudly to the two Demon Kings beside him: "Let's go, to the Alps Divine Mountain!"

Alps Divine Mountain, the largest mountain range in the Demon Domain Continent, stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles.

There are countless high peaks in the mountains, the most famous of which are Langri Peak, Mahong Peak, Dute Peak, Duomi Peak, and Love God Peak.

Langri Peak is located on the west side of the Alps Divine Mountain, 33,000 meters high; it is rumored that the War God Langri practiced on this peak.

Mahong Peak is located on the west side of the Alps Divine Mountain, 35,000 meters high; it is rumored that the Thunder God Mahong refined divine thunder on this peak.

Dute Peak is located on the north side of the Alps Divine Mountain, 36,000 meters high; it is rumored that the Wind God Dute was born under this peak.

Duomi Peak is located in the middle of the Alps Divine Mountain, 42,000 meters high; it is rumored that the Rain God Duomi ascended to the Immortal Realm from the peak.

Love God Peak is located in the east of the Alps Divine Mountain, 38,000 meters high; it is rumored that the Love God Alice left a divine temple on this peak.

Love God Peak was the destination of Zhang Xingyu's group.

Three days after leaving the Divine Demon Mausoleum, they arrived at the foot of the Alps Divine Mountain.

Looking from afar, surrounded by mountains, a snow peak appeared and disappeared in the sea of clouds.

At the foot of the mountain, an enthusiastic old man told them: "That snow peak is Love God Peak, the residence of the Goddess Alice. Love God Peak is covered by clouds and mist all year round, and anyone who can see Love God Peak will have good luck for a lifetime."

Good luck for a lifetime.

Bidding farewell to the enthusiastic old man, the two demons and one person began to climb the mountain.

The mountain road was rugged, the mountain was steep, the light was dim, and the ground was slippery.

If a mortal were to climb the mountain from here, they would likely be smashed to pieces.

However, for Zhang Xingyu and the two Demon Kings, these were not difficulties.

In less than half an hour, the two demons and one person had climbed more than a thousand meters.

Ahead, there was a flat snowy ground.

This was a sheltered place and an excellent place to rest.

On the snow, there was a low tent.

A lamp was lit in the tent, and the golden light shone through the cracks, bringing a trace of warmth to this world.

The two demons and one person stopped here.

The Old Demon He Teyao stuffed a piece of dried meat into his mouth, chewing it loudly.

"Damn place, damn dried meat."

He Teyao swallowed the dried meat in his mouth and shouted at Zhang Xingyu: "Kid, help me roast a few pieces of meat, your roasted meat is still the best."

Beside him, Demon King Harry took out a mirror and carefully applied blush to himself.

Zhang Xingyu glared at He Teyao: "Not roasting. You don't even look at what place this is, this is a snow mountain. Roasting meat on a snow mountain, what if it causes an avalanche? Even if it doesn't cause an avalanche, attracting snow monsters is also very troublesome!"

Just as he was speaking, an inquiry came from the tent: "Who? Who is outside?"

The voice was crisp and childish, filled with terror.

Zhang Xingyu was about to answer, but the tent curtain was pulled open from the inside, and then a girl drilled out of the tent.

The girl was about ten years old, with a pair of watery big eyes, and she wore a red hat on her head.

She held a firewood knife in her hand, and the hand holding the knife was trembling slightly.

"Who, who are you?"

The girl gathered her courage and asked Zhang Xingyu and the others.

"We are professional mountaineers, going to conquer the big mountain above our heads." Zhang Xingyu answered.

"Mountaineers?"

"Yes. Little girl, who are you? Where is your home? How come you are here?"

"I, I am called Alice. My home is at the foot of the mountain."

"Oh. Alice, what a cute name. Exactly the same as the Love God's name. Then Alice, how did you come here?"

"I. I want to go to the top of the mountain."

"Hehe. Are you also going to conquer this big mountain?"

The little girl shook her head but didn't speak anymore.

What a strange girl.

Zhang Xingyu shook his head, took out a piece of venison from his magic bag, and handed it to her.

The little girl didn't take it: "Grandma said, you can't eat things given by strangers."

Zhang Xingyu smiled.

This was treating him as the Big Bad Wolf.

He tore off a small piece from the venison, put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it.

"See? No poison."

Zhang Xingyu patted his belly and then smiled as he handed the venison over again.

Alice hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the venison.

She took a small bite gently and then laughed happily: "So delicious!"

Seeing her eating happily, Zhang Xingyu took out another piece.

The two chatted softly while gnawing on the venison.

It turned out that Alice lived in a small village at the foot of the mountain. Recently, her grandmother, on whom she depended for survival, had fallen seriously ill. The old people in the village said that her grandmother wouldn't live until the New Year. Alice was very sad and cried, begging them how to cure her grandmother. The old people said that unless she could climb the Divine Peak, light the Divine Fire, and let the Love God's divine light shine on her grandmother. The divine light could eliminate sins and dispel illnesses; as long as she could bask in the divine light for a while, her grandmother's illness would definitely be cured.

So, the little girl asked someone to take care of her grandmother, carried a tent, brought dry food, and climbed the Divine Mountain herself.

She climbed for three days before she climbed up here.

The little girl was hungry and tired, the dry food in her bag had been eaten, and she didn't know how far the mountain road was, so the little girl had no choice but to stop on this flat ground.

After eating a few bites of venison, Alice stopped.

She opened her watery big eyes and asked: "Big brother, can you take me to climb to the top of the mountain together?"
