Chapter 24: The Catastrophic Flames Descending from the Sky
update icon Updated at 2025/12/7 10:10:12

The crescent-shaped heavy sword's radiance sliced through the entire venue. All of us were exposed in front of a large audience, while outside the Rabbit Bay, just as Cuī Dōng had said, the people affected by the out-of-control medicine were on a killing spree.

"In the end, it's just between those two fighting," Lilith said, looking up at the two standing on the chaotic stage — Qin Yang and Elena.

"The President now has a thorn lodged in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out. Perhaps a fight might change the situation for the better," Hanya said, with her sword pressed against Tiān Hé Zhèngyì's neck. Under normal circumstances, using the Second Pact to deal with them would have been no problem, and the Third Pact could already hold its own among the Ten Demon Kings and even fight against the Great God. Facing a mere divine rank, Tiān Hé Zhèngyì's failure due to the effects of the medicine was without a doubt.

"What should we do about these two?" Likewise, Flóros could not escape either.

"Knock them unconscious, and we can go clean up those demon-like killers. Let Qin Yang do as he pleases; Hisa, Great God, you agree, don't you?" Li Liu felt that with Qin Yang having drawn Dragon Tooth, the threat had been neutralized.

"Well, that's not a bad idea. Anyway, I didn't plan on doing much from the start," Hisa actually felt very averse to this operation. Making a high-profile move to salvage something for The Divine Realm was becoming more and more frequent, but after all, the gods had their principles. Despite increasingly annoying orders, he had to carry them out. It seemed to him that logic had been thrown out the window by the one giving the orders.

"Situ Liyao, can we talk?" Li Liu turned to Situ Liyao; her armored suit had not been removed, and the particles around her were still dispersing. The armor itself was made of particles and did not have the ability to store them, so the excess particles could only disperse. However, these particles did not disappear but moved around within one to two meters around her.

"Does the Third Princess think I did something wrong just now?"

"If there's no reasonable explanation, I can charge you with treason, including attacking me and selling national secrets."

"The charge of selling secrets is probably not feasible. The transaction was interrupted, and the conduit had their head cut off. What evidence is there? Besides, the attack on you was not intentional on my part. You have your reasons for protecting Qin Yang, and I have my reasons, don't I? My brother is already dead, seeking revenge is only natural. Father is always pestering me day and night; what can you expect me to do? And you're fine, aren't you?"

"Ancestral issues are always tricky, but you can't just let yourself be manipulated like this. You can resist! Also, doesn't Situ Míng have a strained relationship with you?"

Situ Liyao felt a bit bitter inside. Although there was a rift between her and Situ Míng, it was deep and profound. But now that he was dead, the rift had been resolved at that moment. Moreover, no sibling relationship is innate, and there were still intimate memories from childhood.

"A brother will always be a brother."

"But Situ Liyao, I can see that you don't truly intend to seek revenge using Qin Yang's life. Your eyes reveal everything." When it came to understanding eyes, no one was more perceptive than Li Liu.

Liyao disengaged her armor. When Li Liu spoke in this manner, she no longer sensed any hostility. However, she didn't know what Li Liu was actually thinking, or perhaps pitying her.

"Qin Yang is actually a person of deep loyalty. He had promised to help my brother before, but my brother didn't hold on. However, people always have a habit of blaming others for their faults. Our whole family knows the fatal reason for my brother's death, but who is willing to believe that they caused the death of their loved one? And so Qin Yang unluckily bore the burden of this blame from us. Without Qin Yang's hatred, the Situ family might have already fallen apart. As the heir, I can't escape blaming him like everyone else. Every scar left on me by my father is a reminder of all this pain hidden in my heart." Liyao touched her wrist, the bitterness hidden within her only known to herself.

"The Situ family needs to change. Liyao, your father has been going down the wrong path, even wanting to harm the Emperor. He complains about Qin Yang, who should have just been saving people, for the sake of consolidating the family, selling secrets for profit. My father, the Emperor, cannot tolerate his actions any longer. Either become a duke and change it, or run far away to continue being a singer," Situ Liyao looked back at the stage. Today, whether her impulsiveness was wrong or right, she did not want to dwell on it. But Li Liu's words did provide her with a slight sense of direction. It was certain that seeking revenge was the wrong path she had chosen.

"What should we do with these two?" Lilith tied up Fulros, sitting on his back to prevent him from moving.

"I never thought I would be oppressed to this extent by someone with a flat chest."

"Flat... flat chest! Who are you calling flat chested! Even as a prisoner, you dare to complain about being flat chested. So what if I'm flat chested, did it contribute to your defeat!" Lilith, despite being able to change her body, had one area that caused her great distress: her chest, which lacked the presence compared to Li Liu and Hanya.

Lilith kicked dramatically in frustration, sending Fulros flying out like a deflated ball.

"Where did you even kick him?" Hanya squinted, unable to see clearly in the dark sky from far away.

"I don't know, as if you need to worry about a flat chest," Lilith fumed.

Helpless, Hanya could only smile and throw Tianhe's justice out along with Fulros, knowing it wouldn't make a difference.

"It seems like the other three are somewhat concerned about that fool, while those outside are no problem with me around," Lilith reassured, patting her chest.

Later, Li Liu and the group decided to deal with the ruthless killers outside, leaving only Nofice and Lilith behind. Lilith volunteered to stay, while Nofice chose to await their master's summons.

Unbeknownst to Lilith, Li Yihao was secretly observing her from behind, very different from the person in his memory.

"I heard you are the benefactor of that fool," Lilith suddenly turned around and asked Li Yihao.

"It was just a coincidence," Li Yihao stood up, elegantly dusting off his skirt.

"Oh~ You are the famous star Li Yihao!" Lilith finally recognized the woman.

The two exchanged smiles, but inexplicably Lilith felt a strange sensation. Li Yihao did not engage in much conversation with Lilith, exchanging a few pleasantries before walking past her to talk to Moana.

"Strange, how can I have this feeling about mom?"

"Elena, it seems the problem lies within your mind!"

"Do you have an issue with my brain, Qin Yang?" Elena retorted, feeling indignant at being accused when she was a Valkyrie.

"The Magic Marutian implanted in your brain is perhaps the source of infinite hatred."

"Are you suggesting my hatred towards you is Magic? Emotions are lofty and uncontrollable. I refuse to believe that. I despise individuals like you who create chaos in the world for personal gain and manipulate the feelings of women."

"Since you see it that way, I won't be as merciful as last time to try to win you back," The giant sword instantly emitted boundless magic, creating a dazzling spectacle that captured the focus of humanity, showcasing a powerful and admirable sight. This scene was captured by an unmanned camera left behind as the photography team retreated from the venue and broadcast live, making it a divine-level battle shown to the world.

"I have never asked for your mercy." The pentagonal shape followed her movements, and the Magic element bullets formed from it, capable of removing this rubble in minutes, but the power vanished in my palm.

"Magic elements are ineffective." The gold-bordered black letter bandages, the elements in front of the "Sealing Demon Knot" were expelled.

Elena swung her sword, the pentagon continuously harassing, Elena's routine was to seek breakthroughs amidst disruptions, but faced with simple and brutal attacks, she appeared to be at a loss.

"Peng~~~ Peng~~~ Peng~~~" the resounding sound of the mighty heavy sword strikes, each blow flawless, my sword striking directly and powerfully, no need for defense, because I am Reisgolo.

"Urgh!" With a fierce impact, cracks appeared on Elena's artifact.

"If you don't believe, then we'll have to resort to our mutual death... to make you believe! This time, eleven girls who signed the Dragon Spirit Covenant will use our shared lives to prove our connection!"

"Peng~~~ Buzz!" This sword shattered two conical objects on Elena.

"Eleven lives!"

"Yes, me, Lilith, Li Liu, Si Rou, Hanya, Xiao Qiong, Xiao Yao, Wenxin, Nofice, Nani, Qin Ying, Guffy! I may not care, so it's eleven people!"

The heavy sword raised again, pure power, terrifying sword energy, an unstoppable fierce impact that shattered this stage between me and Elena, simultaneously shattering Elena's shoulder armor.

"This is... pure Dragon Soul Magic, but who doesn't have a Dragon Soul!"

Meanwhile, Elena released her Dragon Maiden's Dragon Soul Magic, instantly repairing her armor and sword, resisting me.

"Do you feel it?"

"What?"

"The Dragon Soul of the Holy Dragon."

"Urgh~~~" looking at her expression, she indeed felt the sanctity of the Dragon Soul.

"Not believable!" However, Elena seemed to have her thoughts forcibly twisted, indeed having some issue in her mind.

Elena's speed was extremely fast, compensating for the gap in her strength, as I turned with a bigger force of the giant sword, this brutal melee, seemingly endless.

"Elena, give it your all to take my life, or surrender yourself!"

As the sword struck down, millions of rubble jumped into the air, Elena evaded the debris and jumped into the air, then she saw me rising from below, the sword peak meeting with a dazzling bright light, causing a shaking in the Rabbit Bay Barrier that scared all ordinary people.

"Buzz~~" continuous thunderous roars one after another, seeming unsatisfactory to Tony.

"The script is not unfolding as expected." Pia began to worry.

"Then let's intervene, it's getting boring."

"It seems something interesting is coming."

In the sky, red clouds soared, lighting up the night sky, and dragon roars echoing.

"Another dragon? Marutian?"

"Not the master!"

The fiery light breaking through the sky brought a dragon roar that made one want to release all the fury in their hearts, along with a terrifying sense of oppression; Pia, as a three-headed dragon, feared nothing more than the Holy Demon Twin Dragons and Marutian, and this was the fourth.

"This island is inexplicably interesting." Tony gripped the demon sword to resist the infuriating dragon roar.

"Boom!" The impenetrable barrier shattered into blue fragments, so terrifying that not even a diamond-level Magic array could resist.

The flames raged like a tide, fierce and cruel, leaving behind only white bones and ashes for those who failed to defend themselves. The people Hisa and his group had worked hard to save were completely reduced to corpses in the face of such ruthless methods.

"This... This is too terrifying." Pia was truly scared. What exactly had they provoked that could turn the entire Rabbit Bay into a hell of death?

"The dragon clan... How can they be so powerful?" Tony looked at the fiery red landscape before him, more powerful than any divine fire he had ever seen. Though it appeared to be just regular flames, it possessed such destructive force. It was an unanswered question whether Tony would emerge unscathed if he stood in Rabbit Bay.
