"Demon Saint, save me!!!"
At the final moment, the Spider Empress's Demon Soul True Form shot into the sky, and the gigantic phantom of a Black Widow let out a despairing shriek.
Yet the Demon Saint she called for didn't react in the slightest.
The next second, Ye Kang's Primordial Spirit rushed after her and chopped down with a palm strike.
After all his years of cultivation, Ye Kang's Primordial Spirit Strength was no weaker than his physical body. On top of that, the Spider Empress had lost the foundation of her physical form. With only her Demon Soul True Form left, she was utterly unable to resist.
In just a moment, her True Form dissipated completely. One of the three Demon Emperors who had once strutted around arrogantly in the Wu She Secret Realm had died just like that.
Ye Kang didn't even look. With a thought, the Demon Smelting Furnace opened its maw and devoured the Spider Empress's scattered flesh and blood, along with the last glimmer of her Demon Soul.
Only then did he casually look toward the ground, where the Ape Emperor and Thousand-Legged Demon Emperor lay, utterly stunned.
The two were clever enough to know they were no match for Ye Kang. And since they'd heard him say he wouldn't kill them, they simply pretended to have lost their strength, lying motionless where they were.
When Ye Kang's gaze suddenly turned their way, they jumped in fright and hurriedly shut their eyes.
Ye Kang didn't bother saying anything to them. He simply turned and left, flying out of the Thousand Poisons Marsh without a backward glance, then hurried all the way toward the academy.
At the same time, deep in the Thousand Poisons Marsh, a man and a woman were drinking tea and playing chess.
