Chapter 859: Leaving~

The deep gray power, that is the Great Emperor's might!

But on the Xuanmiao Continent, possessing the Great Emperor's power is almost impossible; even though Luo Dongyu already has Great Emperor-level strength, his Mysterious Force has never transformed.

How did Fu Hanxiu manage it?

"You're incompetent yourself; do you think others are the same as you?" Fu Hanxiu sneered, and his strike unleashed world‑shattering power.

Luo Dongyu used his full strength to resist, yet he was still no match, blasted away, nearly flying off the Fudao and plunging into the endless Abyss.

Fu Hanxiu did not stop there; he kept attacking, the force deeper than before, Luo Dongyu's grim face almost seemed to drip water, and he could only clench his teeth to defend and dodge.

Pfft~

The Supreme One Wheel sliced across his back, and in an instant blood sprayed everywhere, leaving a few‑inch wound on Luo Dongyu's back.

Fu Hanxiu seemed set on dismembering Luo Dongyu, so that every strike dealt damage and left a wound on his body.

"Well struck!"

Xia Zhimeng and the others, seeing Luo Dongyu utterly helpless before Fu Hanxiu, felt a great sense of venting.

The arrogance Luo Dongyu displayed earlier now turned into utter embarrassment!

At that moment, Fu Hanxiu vaulted, appearing before Luo Dongyu like lightning, stamping his foot on him, then turned to Ye Qingran and asked gently:

"How about it, feeling vented?"

"Killing him would be even more satisfying!"

Ye Qingran said lightly.

The words left everyone stunned.

One must remember, he is the Holy Lord of Wuji Hall! How could he order a killing so casually?

"Fine!"

Fu Hanxiu, of course, would not refuse Ye Qingran's request.

His hand brimmed with deep gray Mysterious Force, and without hesitation he struck at Luo Dongyu's head, but at the moment of impact, Luo Dongyu vanished from the spot.

"Fu Hanxiu, you dare think you can kill me?! Foolish dreaming!"

Luo Dongyu's voice filled every corner, making it impossible to tell where it originated.

Fu Hanxiu's expression darkened, his eyes scanning all directions; suddenly he struck, a muffled hum echoing in the void, clearly hitting Luo Dongyu, yet he did not appear.

"Fu Hanxiu, just you wait, I won't let you go! I'll make your whole family die without a burial place!"

The voice grew fainter, until it vanished.

"Where is he?" Ye Qingran approached Fu Hanxiu, surveyed the surroundings, and found Luo Dongyu's aura gone, assuming he had already left.

Fu Hanxiu was unsurprised, "He got away."

Ye Qingran nodded, "It's not your fault. That bastard Luo Dongyu is extremely cunning; even with a life‑saving trump card it's no surprise he slipped away. Who knows when we'll catch him next!"

Ye Qingran clenched her fists, feeling somewhat regretful.

"When we go out, let's head to Wuji Hall and burn his old lair!"

Ye Qingran agreed, "Fine!"

Luo Dongyu may have escaped, but his four guardians were not so lucky. They retreated step by step, crowding together, each watching Fu Hanxiu cautiously, terror in their eyes.

"Will you end yourselves, or shall the Master see you off personally?"

"Fu Hanxiu, what are you doing?!"

"Seems you still want the Master to act personally!"

As soon as Fu Hanxiu finished speaking, he struck; no one saw how he did it. The four guardians' eyes widened, the light in them fading point by point, until life was gone.

Everyone swallowed, their shock beyond words.

The four guardians of Wuji Hall were peak Human Emperors! In the Emperor Sovereign's hands, they were as fragile as ants!

Earlier they believed Wuji Hall's foundation was profound, and with the Holy Lord older, his strength slightly surpassed the Emperor Sovereign's. Yet the Emperor Sovereign, before their eyes, utterly crushed the Holy Lord and even slayed the four guardians with a single move!

"So this is the Emperor Sovereign's true power?"

After this incident, some chose to leave the relic, while others continued the expedition.

Ye Qingran's party was among the former.

Emerging from the relic into the sunlight felt like stepping into another world.

"Why does it feel like we went to the Demon God Relic, yet also like we didn't?"

Xia Zhimeng sighed.

"Same feeling."

If this place is the divine tomb of Demon God Supreme One, it's more like his burial mound, just as Demon God Supreme One built a burial mound for Kong Sang Da Di; aside from Kong Sang Da Di, there is nothing else about him.

This Demon God Relic is similar.

Aside from the thirteen Demon Guards, there seems little trace of Demon God Supreme One.

"By the way, Fu Hanxiu, you haven't told me how you recovered?"

Fu Hanxiu lifted his sword‑shaped brows, "I saw Supreme One Mysterious Water and the Supreme One Wheel in the Abyss."

Ye Qingran opened her mouth, "That lucky?"

Fu Hanxiu gave no answer; he too found it odd.

He even felt that whether it was the Supreme One Wheel, the Supreme One Mysterious Water, or this Demon God Relic, there was a faint sense of familiarity.

Hard to articulate, indescribable.

Fu Hanxiu shook his head, thinking perhaps he was overthinking.

"Mother, let's hurry back to the village; I miss Niu Mo Wang Da Shu and Tiger Demon King Aunt!"

Xiao Hu Xiao Chen ran over, hugging Ye Qingran's thigh.

Ye Qingran's spine stiffened; for a moment she didn't know how to explain to Xiao Hu the fact that the Great Demons had already left Mo Yuan.

She could almost imagine how heartbroken Xiao Hu would be when he learned the truth.

But, parting is an indispensable part of growth!

Besides, Xiao Hu will find out someday, right?

After persuading herself, Ye Qingran slowly squatted down, touched Xiao Hu's face, and said solemnly, "Xiao Hu, Mother has something to tell you, but you must promise Mother to stay strong, okay?"

The smile on Xiao Hu's face faded, "Mother, what is it?"

Ye Qingran fell silent for a moment, "Niu Mo Wang Da Shu, Tiger Demon King Aunt, and all the Great Demons of Mo Yuan... have left."

Xiao Hu widened his eyes, opened his mouth, as if he didn't understand what that meant.

A pang of reluctance crossed Ye Qingran's heart.

"Mother, you said they left—what does that mean? Where did they go? But they couldn't possibly leave Mo Yuan; they can't get out..."

Xiao Hu argued desperately, but deep down he clearly understood that Mother would never deceive him; she said they had left,
