The demon general, seeing two more people suddenly appear, especially the strange aura of the woman in black, felt a slight chill. However, relying on the superiority of his numbers and the fact that the opponents' cultivation seemed low (Li Wuyang was an Earth Immortal, Xuan's aura was restrained), he still sternly shouted, "What blind fool dares to meddle in the affairs of my Demon Heavenly Court? Take them all down!"
Several Heavenly Immortals of the Demon Race received the order and transformed into demonic winds, swooping down!
Hou Yuan was greatly alarmed and was about to warn Li Wuyang to be careful when he saw Xuan beside him lightly raise her fair, jade-like palm.
There was no earth-shattering aura, no dazzling display of spell light. Only the void-like silver-white in her right eye, subtly swirling.
The next moment, an indescribable coldness, as if it could freeze the soul and return all things to ultimate nothingness, silently permeated outwards from her.
The Heavenly Immortal demon soldiers who swooped down, the instant they came into contact with this aura, the ferocious smiles on their faces froze. The light in their eyes dimmed and vanished at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if erased by an eraser. Their demonic power, vitality, and even the traces of their existence disintegrated and dissipated without a sound.
Like sandcastles blown away by the wind, not even a speck of ash remained, returning completely to "nothingness."
The entire process was terrifyingly silent.
The remaining demons in the air, including the True Immortal demon general, all froze, their faces filled with extreme fear and confusion. They hadn't even seen how the opponent made their move!
What kind of power was that?! It was completely beyond their scope of understanding!
Xuan slowly raised her head, her heterochromatic eyes calmly looking at the demon general.
The demon general felt a chill rush straight from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head, his soul trembling! He had no doubt that if that woman looked at him again, he would disappear completely like his subordinates!
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" the demon general let out a terrified scream, no longer caring about the mission. He first transformed into a demonic cloud and fled for his life. The other demon soldiers were even more terrified, scattering like birds and beasts, vanishing without a trace in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the crisis was resolved.
The scene was deathly silent. Hou Yuan and the surviving Witch Clan members stared at Xuan, dumbfounded, as if looking at a descending demon god, filled with extreme reverence. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Li Wuyang also swallowed. Although he knew Xuan was formidable, every time he saw her act, this method of casually making enemies "return to nothing" still made his heart pound. This "Power of Annihilation" was too overbearing!
Xuan retracted her hand, her gaze returning to its usual calm, as if she had just swatted a few flies. She looked at Li Wuyang, "It's handled."
Li Wuyang snapped back to reality and said to Hou Yuan, "Leader Hou Yuan, the pursuers have retreated. You should leave quickly."
Hou Yuan finally came to his senses and quickly led his tribesmen to bow deeply to Li Wuyang and Xuan, "Thank you, Dao Child! Thank you... thank you, senior, for saving our lives!" He looked at Xuan with eyes full of reverence.
"It was nothing, go quickly," Li Wuyang waved his hand.
Hou Yuan didn't delay further and hurried away with his tribesmen.
Watching their receding figures, Li Wuyang felt a heavy heart. The brutality of the Witch-Demon war was evident. Even a great tribe like the Houtu Tribe was annihilated; the entire Primordial World was probably no longer a pure land.
He turned to Xuan and said sincerely, "Xuan, I really have you to thank this time."
Xuan glanced at him indifferently, "Your 'karma,' always manages to find trouble precisely."
Li Wuyang chuckled awkwardly, unable to refute.
Xuan looked towards the vast battlefield of the Witch-Demon confrontation, her eyes deep, "The great tribulation has begun. Heaven and earth are the furnace, creation is the craftsman, yin and yang are the charcoal, and all things are the copper. What role do you want to play in this furnace?"
Li Wuyang was stunned by the question. What role to play? He had never thought about such profound questions. He just wanted to find his way home, or... to live well in this Primordial World, and perhaps make a fortune.
"Me..." he scratched his head, looking at the rising smoke of war in the distance, grinned, and returned to his carefree demeanor, "I'll first figure out how to survive in this chaotic world, and then... see if I can get some benefits! Let's go, find a place to ask around about what exactly happened in these three thousand years!"
His goal remained simple and pure. As for the great tribulation? If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. He, a small shrimp, should take care of himself first!
Xuan watched his retreating back, a faint, imperceptible glimmer flashing in her heterochromatic eyes, and followed him.
