"Xena, if that's the case, I'll fight for you one more time."

A cold glint flashed in Reynalds's eyes, and he said directly.

"Hahahaha. Fight for me one more time. Hahaha."

Upon hearing Reynalds's words, Xena suddenly burst into laughter, pointing at Reynalds, tears welling up in her eyes. It was unclear whether it was joy, mockery, or a mix of both.

A moment later, Xena's laughter subsided slightly. "Reynalds, how many eons has it been? Stop trying to coax me with the same words you used to deceive me back then. If you truly cared about me, you would just destroy my heart bone after I'm killed. Just don't let my heart bone fall into the hands of the Four Divine Beast Families."

As she spoke, Xena looked at Reynalds and added, "I know you have the ability to do so."

Listening to Xena's words, Reynalds's heart, which had been undisturbed for countless years, couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

"Patriarch, someone is here to see you."

Just then, a voice sounded from outside the hall.

The members of the Xena Family addressed Xena as Old Ancestor, while only Reynalds's clansmen referred to him as Patriarch.

"Hmm?"

Reynalds frowned.

"Go ahead. Perhaps it's someone from the Four Divine Beast Families," Xena snorted.

Previously, people from the Four Divine Beast Families had come to visit Reynalds. Especially Spark, who had visited many times.

"Xena, don't worry. No matter who it is, I won't leave the Burning Volcano Mountain Range," Reynalds stated with certainty.

Although he was somewhat displeased with Spark, Spark still cared about their past friendship and would visit him from time to time.

While Spark would try to persuade him to leave the Burning Volcano Mountain Range, he would also bring news of the Four Divine Beast Families' plans.

It was precisely because of this that he had learned of the Four Divine Beast Families' specific intentions.

Soon, Reynalds arrived at a side hall.

However, before reaching the side hall, Reynalds's spiritual sense detected that it wasn't Spark. It was an unfamiliar High God standing with his hands behind his back.

Reynalds was also puzzled. The Four Divine Beast Families had surrounded the Xena Family's garrison, and entry or exit was only possible with their permission.

This was the first time the Four Divine Beast Families had allowed anyone else to enter.

What were the Four Divine Beast Families planning now?

Not only did Reynalds notice the change in his aura and appearance, but Kakqi also sensed Reynalds.

Kakqi had learned about this powerful figure in Hell before coming here.

As soon as Reynalds entered, Kakqi turned around. Ignoring the scrutiny in Reynalds's eyes, he used his God's Domain to envelop the surroundings and transmitted his voice with a light chuckle, "Reynalds."

"Who are you?"

Reynalds looked at Kakqi, his brow furrowed. He had no recollection of the soul aura of the person before him.

Sensing the God's Domain around him, Reynalds didn't become overly tense. With a slight movement of his divine power, he nullified the effect of Kakqi's God's Domain.

The strength of a God's Domain was not affected by profound mysteries; it was solely related to the level of the divine spark.

In other words, the effect of a High God's God's Domain was the same.

Whether it was a High God who had refined a divine spark or a High God who was a Peak Asura, the effect of their individual divine clones' God's Domains was the same.

However, the effects of God's Domains could be stacked.

Two Mid God clones casting their God's Domains together could significantly weaken a High God's God's Domain.

Similarly, two High Gods casting their God's Domains simultaneously could impose a certain degree of restriction on another High God. Of course, such a situation was very rare. It was one thing for a person to have two High God clones, which could be easily achieved by merging them.

But for two High Gods, even with meticulous coordination in battle, stacking the effects of their God's Domains would not cover all areas.

After all, the two couldn't be in the same position at all times during combat.

Therefore, even though God's Domains could be stacked, it was still difficult to deal with stronger opponents through sheer numbers.

To escape or weaken the restrictions of a God's Domain, besides casting one's own God's Domain, one could also borrow divine power or use profound mystery techniques.

An ordinary High God could use their God's Domain to counteract an opponent's God's Domain, but very few High Gods could nullify a God's Domain solely through divine power or profound mystery techniques.

To achieve this required immense strength. It was almost exclusively possessed by those with profound attainments in Profound Mystery Fusion. Even those who reached the same level through innate divine powers or external aids would find it difficult.

Reynalds's ability to easily break free from Kakqi's God's Domain by directly using his divine power demonstrated some of his strength.

At the same time, this served as a "warning" to the person before him.

Seeing Reynalds looking at him and directly using divine power to nullify his God's Domain, Kakqi was not angered. He said casually, "Me? Someone here to help you."

Reynalds frowned, his voice deepening slightly, "Did Spark send you?"

"Spark?"

Kakqi raised an eyebrow, then chuckled, "He doesn't have the qualifications to make me do things."

Saying this, Kakqi stopped beating around the bush and transmitted his voice directly, "As long as you and Xena can hold on for another year, the crisis will be resolved."

One year was the shortest time he and Morit needed to arrive.

Hearing Kakqi's words, Reynalds' eyes narrowed slightly. "Who are you, and what do you want? If you keep hiding, don't blame me for being impolite."

At the same time, Reynalds was on guard in his heart. The crisis was resolved?

Besides finding a way to relocate Xena to Thundercloud City, he couldn't think of any other way to resolve the crisis of the Burning Volcano Mountain Range.

He hadn't sought help from other strong individuals, but after hearing about the situation in the Burning Volcano Mountain Range, no one was willing to step forward.

Now, a guy suddenly appeared, asking him to hold on for another year?

He was naturally wary.

Seeing Reynalds' reaction, Kakqi knew that if he didn't reveal some information, this guy might forcefully take Xena away.

Immediately, Kakqi looked at Reynalds and reverted his soul aura and appearance.

"It's you!"

Seeing Kakqi's appearance, Reynalds' gaze narrowed slightly.

Kakqi had been famous on the Divine Plane for a long time, but Reynalds hadn't paid him much attention before. After all, Kakqi was only considered average among the Asura.

However, in recent years, Kakqi's fame suddenly began to spread across the Blood Peak Continent again.

Especially after he was taken in as an emissary by the Dark Overlord, his fame soared. Many strong individuals were collecting information about him.

After all, a Sovereign's Emissary was completely different from an ordinary Asura.

Any Sovereign's Emissary was one of the peak existences on the Divine Plane.

After confirming Kakqi's identity, Reynalds couldn't help but be greatly shaken.

Kakqi had changed his soul aura, and he couldn't sense his identity. It seemed that this guy's mastery of the Life Law had reached its extreme.

He didn't know about Kakqi's soul mutation, so he only thought that Kakqi had reached a very deep realm in the Life Law.

The Life Law itself was adept at souls, and if he hid his soul aura, it would indeed be difficult for others to detect.

No wonder this guy was taken in as an emissary. A peak existence in the Life Law was rare, even among Sovereign's Emissaries.

But why did this guy suddenly appear to help him?

Reynalds was puzzled. "Why are you helping the Xue Na Family?"

Kakqi glanced at Reynalds, with no intention of explaining. "You don't need to worry about this matter. You just need to know that if you want to completely resolve the Xue Na Family's current crisis, you need to hold on for at least another year."

He couldn't say more about the Overlord's command.

Reynalds didn't speak immediately, seemingly contemplating the truth of Kakqi's words.

Kakqi didn't rush him.

If Reynalds was already prepared to give up on Xena, then he and Morit would have to find other solutions.

"Alright!"

After a moment, Reynalds looked at Kakqi and agreed directly. "If you can truly resolve the crisis of the Burning Volcano Mountain Range after a year, I, Reynalds, will owe you a favor!"

He was very clear about the Xue Na Family's current situation.

To be precise, holding on for another six months was already the Xue Na Family's limit. A year? Unless the Xue Na Family completely went into hiding.

This was still assuming Spark and the others didn't actively hunt them down.

But was that possible?

Therefore, to hold on for a year, he needed to provide the Xue Na Family with a large amount of support again. Most importantly, he needed to give the Xue Na Family more Sovereign Power.

In the final stages, he might even directly confront the Four Divine Beast Families.

Even if this matter was resolved, his relationship with the Four Divine Beast Families would be severely strained afterward. As the Prefect of the Blood Peak Continent, a strained relationship with the Four Divine Beast Families would put immense pressure on the Reynalds Family.

If there was no complete solution to the Burning Volcano Mountain Range issue, even with his complex feelings for Xena, he wouldn't do this. After all, an endless consumption of Sovereign Power against clan members like the Four Divine Beast Families would be depleting the Reynalds Family's foundation.

Even as a Sovereign's Emissary, he couldn't afford such consumption.

But now, with Kakqi, a Sovereign's Emissary, willing to face the Four Divine Beast Families together, he felt a glimmer of hope.

Even if the hope seemed slim in his eyes, he was willing to spend some extra Sovereign Power for this sliver of possibility.

Dark God Realm.

Black Mist Prefecture.

Within an unnamed mountain range spanning tens of thousands of miles, a temporary palace was built.

In the main hall, Christine sat in the head seat, with other twelve-winged fallen divine angels standing on either side.

"Saintess, since the Fallen Angel Decree was issued, most of the blasphemers on the Shadow Continent have been executed. A small remnant is fleeing towards Dragon Soul Prefecture."

A long-haired female twelve-winged fallen divine angel reported, "Dragon Soul Prefecture is one of the main gathering places of the Four Divine Beast Families on the Shadow Continent."

They were only responsible for eliminating some of the more powerful enemies. More ordinary Four Divine Beasts bloodline clan members were dealt with by fallen divine angels from various regions.

The power of the fallen divine angels once again shocked the strong individuals in the Dark God Realm.

"According to news from Hell, the Four Divine Beast Families have dispatched strong individuals to Dragon Soul Prefecture. They have already arrived in the Dark God Realm and are likely not far from Dragon Soul Prefecture."

The Twelve-Winged Fallen Divine Angel added.

"Dragon Soul Prefecture."

Christine's expression remained unchanged, and she then asked, "What about the other continents?"

The Overlord's command was to purge the clan members of the Four Divine Beast Families in the Dark God Realm, not just on the Shadow Continent.

However, the other continents and oceans were ruled by other Dark Lords. The Fallen God Angels on other continents' first loyalty was to their respective Monarchs.

"The other continents lack Twelve-Winged Fallen Divine Angels, and the blasphemers' resistance is relatively fierce."

The female Twelve-Winged Fallen Divine Angel answered directly, "The progress is slightly slower than on the Shadow Continent."

Aside from Lota, the other Dark Lord Gods did not have Twelve-Winged Fallen Divine Angels. Therefore, the fighting was more stalemated than on the Shadow Continent.

Although the situation was stalemated, many clan members of the Four Divine Beast Families on other continents, with purer bloodlines, were also migrating towards the Shadow Continent.

Christine was not angered. Her pure black eyes looked outside the Hall and she said directly, "Have the other Twelve-Winged Divine Angels go to the other continents as soon as possible, thoroughly purge the remaining blasphemers on those continents, and complete the Monarch's sacred order."

She paused, and Christine said with a clear, cold voice, "As for Dragon Soul Prefecture, keep a close watch. Let them gather first, then catch them all in one net."

They were not the only Twelve-Winged Fallen Divine Angels. However, aside from them, the remaining Fallen God Angels were only at the level of Seven-Star Shadow Walkers.

But even Fallen God Angels at the Seven-Star Shadow Walker level were enough to carry out Lota's orders.

As for Christine herself, she was waiting for the strong individuals of the Four Divine Beast Families to gather at Dragon Soul Prefecture.

After she killed the guy in Dragon Soul Prefecture, she would head to Hell. The Monarch had other requirements for her.

"Yes!"

The Twelve-Winged Fallen Divine Angels present all responded respectfully.
