Throne of Gods: Divine thunder descends, and the Qilin descends upon the world!

Chapter 54 isn't enough; I could read it for a lifetime!

Chapter 54 isn't enough; I could read it for a lifetime!
The demon leader, at the head of the demons, suddenly reined in the Nightmare Horse from twenty meters away, and the beast beneath it let out a piercing neigh.

He roared angrily, "Arrogant Moon Demon! Even if you are a nobleman, you have no right to insult a demon lord! State your title!"

A cold glint flashed in Yuehui's eyes, and he flicked his right wrist slightly—

"Whoosh!"

A streak of purple light shot out from the sky, and the demon leader hurriedly caught it with his giant hand.

When he saw what he was holding, his dark green eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and his thick arms trembled uncontrollably.

"This is this"

The next second, the demon commander suddenly knelt down with a thud, his forehead slamming heavily onto the ground with a dull thud.

He held his hands high above his head, cradling the token engraved with the Moon Demon Noble's mark, his voice trembling uncontrollably:

"Your Excellency Earl Moon Demon, I apologize for my rudeness just now. Please, please forgive me."

Behind him, fifty demon cavalrymen dismounted in unison, kneeling in a dark mass, not daring to utter a sound.

"Humph!"

Lightning crackled at Yuehui's fingertips as the token traced an elegant arc in the air before landing steadily in his palm.

His purple eyes lowered slightly, his voice as cold as frost: "Demon, tell me, where are you going?"

The demon leader pressed his forehead to the ground, trembling as he said, "Reporting to Your Excellency, I have been ordered to reinforce my kin who are exploring the Howling Cave."

"The Howling Cave?" Moonlight raised an eyebrow, a hint of doubt subtly creeping into her voice. "What kind of place is that?"

"This cave was recently discovered by our race," the demon leader explained hastily, not daring to be negligent.
"The great Lord Samigina has informed the even greater Demon Emperor. Investigations suggest there are ancient ruins within the cave, which is why the advance team sent out a distress signal."

Moonlight's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked casually, "Is it the cave on the other side of the mountain?"

He subtly made a gesture with his left hand behind his back, conveying a secret signal to his companions.

"How...how did you know?!" The demon leader looked up in horror.

"What in this demon territory can escape the notice of my Moon Demon Clan?" He waved his hand dismissively. "Get lost, you mere little cave, not even worthy of my clan's attention."

"Thank you for your mercy, my lord!" The demon commander felt as if he had been granted a pardon and hurriedly got up.

The moment he turned around——

"Zizzi."

A faint rumble of thunder suddenly sounded in the air.

The demon leader felt a chill on his neck, and his vision suddenly spun.

His last conscious thought was of seeing a familiar headless body, gushing purple demonic blood, slowly fall.

(Is that... my body?)
At the same time, Yuehui's six teammates behind him launched a surprise attack, their movements so fast that they left only afterimages in the air.

Wang Yuanyuan's right arm muscles suddenly tensed, and the Giant Spirit Shield flashed in the silver light.

She charged into the enemy ranks like a cannonball, her giant shield unleashing a silver storm.

Wherever the shield blade passed, the demon cavalrymen and their horses were shredded into pieces of flesh and blood, and more than a dozen severed limbs drew tragic arcs in the air.

Cai'er's figure transformed into a fleeting shadow, her toes lightly touching the ground as if she were dancing a dance of death.

Each time the dark gold dagger in her hand flashed, a blood flower would bloom between the brows of a demon cavalryman.

The demons kneeling on the ground were frozen in their kneeling posture forever before they could even get up.

Long Haochen drew his twin swords, and golden spiritual energy soared into the sky like a dragon.

His movements were as swift as lightning, nine afterimages flashing and intertwining within the enemy ranks. The sword light of the Battle Dance transformed into a golden storm, engulfing the five nearest demon cavalrymen.

Only then did the surviving demon cavalry realize with horror that their commander had already been beheaded.

However, it was too late; the demon hunters' slaughter was already halfway complete.

"Thunderbolt Dance!"

A dazzling purple lightning suddenly erupted from Moonbeam's body, and dozens of violent bolts of lightning shot out from the Thunderclap Sword, instantly engulfing the demon cavalry who were trying to resist, along with their nightmare demon horses.

After the thunder and lightning raged, only a pile of charred corpses remained.

Cai'er moved like a ghost, her dagger flashing coldly as she precisely finished off the last survivor.

She twirled lightly and landed silently beside the moonlight.

"Captain!" Chen Ying'er leaned forward with shining eyes, "You looked absolutely stunning when you disguised yourself as a Moon Demon noble! That noble air was so natural, how did you do it?"

Moonlight remained silent for a moment, a dark glint flashing in her purple eyes: "When I was young, I lived in the Moon Demon Clan for two years as a hostage."

The people who were cleaning up the battlefield all stopped in their tracks, clearly not expecting that Yuehui had such an experience.

Cai'er gazed quietly at the moonlight, her usually cold and aloof eyes now filled with tenderness, her gaze enveloping him like water.

(So, Brother Yuehui had this kind of experience. I still know too little about him.)
"Commander," Lu Xi broke the silence first, pointing to the corpses scattered on the ground and asking, "What should we do with these demon corpses? Our spatial equipment can't hold so many."

A cold glint flashed in Moonlight's purple eyes as she said in a deep voice, "Dig out all the magic crystals, pile them up, and burn them!"

As he spoke, he threw out the corpses of the Beast Demon, Mad Demon, and others he had collected earlier from his spatial ring, and at the same time put the corpses of the Demon Lord and the Nightmare Demon Horse into it.

The demons of Narik Province had already committed a grave crime by attacking the Moonlit Caravan, so they didn't care if they were charged with another crime: murdering demons.

Burning the corpses was naturally a way to cover up the traces of the battle.

The battle traces of a demon hunter are naturally different from those of a brute, a berserker, or a great demon.

But after it's burned, who can tell?

...

About an hour later.

The towering flames were still burning at the foot of the mountain, and Yuehui had already led everyone to the top.

Standing on high ground and looking out, the distant mountain ranges perfectly match the map markings.

This mountainous area, which connects to the hilly region, is not high, and due to the lack of sunshine throughout the year in the demon territory, the vegetation on the mountain is sparse.

As late autumn drew to a close, the landscape was filled with bare rock walls and withered meadows, creating an exceptionally desolate and bleak scene.

Moonlight carefully examined the unfolded map, and after a moment said to everyone, "The Howling Cave that the demon commander mentioned should be our target for this trip—the Cave of Fear and Howl."

"Because we wiped out this force in time, the news did not get out, and no demon reinforcements will arrive for at least a few days."

"Judging from the strength of this reinforcement force and the cave demons' request for help, the remaining demons inside are not a threat."

"What we really need to be wary of is the inherent danger of the Fear Howling Cave itself."

Everyone nodded in agreement with Yuehui's analysis.

Cai'er stood beside Yuehui, gazing tenderly at his focused profile.

Yuehui also noticed Cai'er's gaze and helplessly transmitted her voice:
(Aren't you going to stare at me enough?)

Cai'er smiled slightly and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear:
(Not enough. I could never get enough of it in my lifetime~)
