Chapter 70 Big Brother, no! That's yours...

(Thanks to Senior Sister Lemonade)

……

The immense life force contained within the golden rain of light finally managed to halt the collapse of Yuehui's body.

"This is...!" Ling Xiao's heart trembled violently.

In his perception, Yuehui's physical condition was simply appalling—if an ordinary person's body were like a solid rock, Yuehui's body at this moment was like a handful of sand about to disintegrate, constantly crumbling.

The healing technique he used only managed to barely hold these "grains of sand" together.

"Grandpa Ling Xiao!" Chen Ying'er looked at Ling Xiao with teary eyes, "Please, you must save the commander!"

"Lord of the Temple!" The Alliance warriors who had been rescued by the 21st Demon Hunter Squad, all knelt on one knee. "If it weren't for this young man, our defenses would have collapsed long ago!"

They witnessed the awe-inspiring scene of Moonbeam summoning the Demon God Pillar, yet no one doubted his identity or stance.

What demon would fight to the death for humanity?

Moreover, all demons are naturally averse to the element of light, yet this young man showed no abnormalities under the healing of the light rain.

They even formed a contract with a light elemental spirit!
All signs indicate that Moonbeam is definitely not a demon!
"I told you, as long as I'm here, he won't die!"

The epic staff in Ling Xiao's hand suddenly burst forth with seven-colored light.

He lightly tapped his staff in the air, and a huge golden magic circle with a diameter of 100 meters unfolded beneath his feet.

The life gem at the tip of the staff trembled violently, and countless ancient runes emerged from the staff:

"Guided by light, bound by life—Forbidden Spell: Mercy of the Goddess of Light!"

The light elements between heaven and earth converged wildly, condensing in the air into a hundred-meter-long gate of holy light.

The moment the doors opened, ethereal hymns resounded throughout the entire battlefield.

A phantom of a goddess, composed of pure light elements, slowly emerged. She wore a crown of thorns and a robe of flowing light. Although her face was blurred, the divine pressure she exuded terrified the demons who were retreating from Zhennan Pass.

The goddess's illusory figure raised her slender hand, and a single, crystal-clear golden tear slid down from her veil.

As this drop of the [Tear of the Goddess of Light] fell, it continuously differentiated, eventually transforming into thousands of golden threads of light that precisely pierced every wound in Moonbeam's body.

Those filaments of light are like the most intricate stitches, connecting the broken meridians one by one; and like the most skillful shuttle, reweaving the scattered spiritual apertures.

The porcelain-like cracks on the surface of the moonlight were healed at a visible speed under the nourishment of the divine tears.

Even more astonishingly, these light filaments did not dissipate after the repair was completed, but instead transformed into pure life energy, forming a golden life network within Yuehui's body, continuously nourishing his damaged essence.

Gradually, Yuehui's originally weak breathing began to become steady and strong.

The flame of life that once flickered like a candle in the wind has now been rekindled with vibrant vitality.

Cai'er knelt beside him, her slender fingers gently stroking Yuehui's face.

Although she had lost her sight, she could clearly feel that the moonlight's originally chaotic energy was gradually becoming stable, and her cold body temperature was warming up again.

"Moonlight."

She carefully pulled him into her arms, letting his head rest against her chest.

Beneath the black veil, a single, glistening tear silently slid down, landing on Yuehui's cheek as her complexion gradually returned to normal.

Cai'er subconsciously tightened her arms, as if she wanted to forever etch the boy who had risked his life for her into her own life.

Ling Xiao, having rescued Yuehui from the brink of death, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He raised his hand to wipe the fine beads of sweat from his forehead and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly happened just now? Where did that phantom of the Second Demon God Pillar come from?"

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, a sense of hesitation hanging in the air.

At this moment, Long Haochen, forcing himself to stand, bowed to Ling Xiao with standard knightly etiquette: "Reporting to the Saint, that phantom of the Demon God Pillar... was summoned by our captain." "What?!" Ling Xiao's pupils constricted, staring incredulously at Yuehui lying in Cai'er's arms. "How...how is this possible?"

Long Haochen straightened his back, his voice soft yet resounding: "Commander Moonshine once slew the inheritor of the Moon Demon God and obtained the Crown of Inheritance! He also refined and absorbed it!"

These words commanded the respect of everyone present.

This seemingly young sixth-tier powerhouse not only killed the Moon Demon God's inheritor, but has now also slain the Flame Lion Demon Anluoxian, ranked fifty-second.

Previous doubts have long since vanished—although the number of Crowns of Inheritance obtained in the history of the Holy Alliance is very small, while humans cannot inherit the Demon God Pillar by refining the Crown of Inheritance, they can obtain one of the Demon God's talents or skills.

Ling Xiao, however, had a deep frown.

(The Crown of Inheritance can actually grant the ability to summon Demon God Pillars?)

However, Moonbeam does not possess any dark attributes, and its blood is red, which means it has nothing to do with demons. This explanation seems to be the only reasonable answer.

Do not!
Perhaps it should be said that he must believe this fact!
Because it was Yuehui who saved the entire Zhenmo Pass!

Without the moonlight, even if they eventually drive away the demons, the Demon Suppression Pass will be severely weakened.

……

Central Province of the Demon Clan.

Inside the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Palace.

Moon Demon God Agares and Star Demon God Vasak stand side by side.

Feng Xiu, sitting on the Demon Dragon Throne, had a gloomy expression and tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest.

"Brother, has something gone wrong that you summoned me?" Vasak asked first.

Feng Xiu's dragon eyes flashed with cold light: "An Luo died first." His voice was low, "What's more troublesome is that the Demon God's Crown of the Fifty-Two Pillars has not returned to the Demon God Pillars."

The two demon gods paled upon hearing this.

They knew what this meant—the Crown of the Demon God was supposed to return immediately after the host's death and choose a new Demon God.

Now that the crown is missing, the Demon Pillar will fall into a long period of silence.

"How long will it take to reassemble the Crown of the Demon God?" Agares asked in a deep voice.

Feng Xiu shook her head: "At least ten years."

"Hmph, that piece of trash An Luoxian! He actually died at Zhennan Pass!" Agares roared. "Hopefully, it won't affect our plans."

The original tactic was clear: intimidate humanity with a large army, and then use the superior position to force negotiations.

Now that Anluo has died in battle, the demons are in a passive position.

Feng Xiu lightly tapped the armrest of the throne with her fingertips: "It wasn't the garrison of Zhennan Pass." A strange light flashed in her eyes, "It was the new generation of the Reincarnation Saintess and her Demon Hunter Team."

"The Saintess of Reincarnation?!" The two demon gods changed color simultaneously.

The previous Demon God Emperor was severely injured by the Reincarnation Saint Son and eventually died. The current Feng Xiu is the sixth Demon God Emperor.

"Did Anluo manage to defeat that Reincarnation Saintess?" Vasak hurriedly asked.

“No,” Feng Xiu said in a deep voice. “The one who killed An Luoxian was a lightning mage, a chosen one of the gods, and had already awakened, able to cast the Divine Descent spell.”

(Because the phantom of the Moon Demon Pillar summoned by the Moonlight was too fantastical, the demons assumed it was a trick created by humans and therefore did not send this information back to the Demon Emperor's Palace.)
Agares' pupils contracted sharply.

(How is that possible?)
"Brother, we must not let these two chosen ones grow up!" Vasak said urgently, "They will surely become a great threat in the future."

Feng Xiu nodded slowly: "I will go to Zhennanguan myself."

"Big brother, no!"
