Wisps of Demonic Energy drifted from the Demon Ape's body as its form began dissolving into nothingness, vanishing into the air.
The Demon Ape's body faded bit by bit. Its head lowered to look at the wound in its chest, then at the straight blade in Chen Han's hand. Unprecedented unwillingness and fury erupted from its brilliant golden eyes.
It abruptly opened its mouth and let out a ferocious roar. With its vocal cords already dissolving, however, it could not make a sound.
Heavy snow fell, the Demon Ape vanished, and its furious roar remained soundless...
Its body had completely disappeared, leaving only half its head. It angrily bit toward Chen Han, but before its fangs could touch him, it turned into nothingness and vanished completely.
Snowflakes danced in the mournful gale, as though they were the Demon Ape's unwilling roar.
For some reason, every "Mystery" who witnessed this scene suddenly felt an indescribable sense of bleakness and tragedy.
The faint suspicions that had arisen when they saw the Demon Ape crush the Daruma Doll in its jaws completely vanished along with the sight of the Demon Ape's unwilling dissolution.
The Demon Ape... had done its best!
Until its final moment, it had still tried desperately to kill Chen Han. Unfortunately, Chen Han seemed far stronger than it was.
Just how strong was he?
On the nearby streets, every high-level and low-level "Mystery" that had witnessed the scene looked at Chen Han differently. Fear surfaced in the depths of their eyes.
Chen Han gripped his blade stiffly, standing where he was like a statue.
He did not understand.
Everything that had just happened was beyond his comprehension... Even now, he had not recovered from the illusion that he had personally "slain" the Demon Ape.
Had he killed the Demon Ape?
