When Villains Talk Too Much

(My children, return, just like your teacher Carole did!)

(I will bring you eternal, ultimate, absolute release. You will no longer have to bear the burden of killing, no longer bear the burden of sin, no longer atone...)

A voice filled with temptation drifted over, gentle and compassionate.

"Get lost! Teacher Carole isn't... isn't what you say she is!"

Wise hurried forward and stood in front of the others.

The next instant, golden light bloomed in his eyes—the same golden Ether radiance, but this time, he was controlling it himself, not Pelois.

"Hehe, such a trivial trick!"

Snap.

Jianshu snapped his fingers again. Enormous amounts of Anomalous Corruptive Breath surged from all around the pit, swallowing Wise, Belle, Ye Shunguang, and Griseo in an instant.

"Didn't expect this, did you? [Primus]'s power had spread throughout the entire Lemnian Hollow from the very beginning."

Jianshu leisurely shared his thoughts on victory. "Everything you've done has been futile from the moment you took your first step inside."

But before it could finish its victory speech, boom!

A point of light shot into the sky, tearing apart the inky Corruptive Breath. Wherever the light passed, the Anomalous Corruptive Breath scattered and vanished.

"Hehe... merely a dying struggle."

Jianshu looked at that light and snorted disdainfully again.

It had calculated everything clearly:

The previous explosion had severely injured Griseo. Now that she had purified Anomalous Corruptive Breath on this scale, how much strength could she possibly have left?

And Ye Shunguang, wielder of the Azure Nether Sword, was already finished.

How much combat power could the Salvation squad still have left?

As for Wise and Belle, they could not even control their own power. Jianshu did not take either of them seriously; they probably could not even defeat it.

"Griseo!!!"

"Griseo!!"

Two cries rang
