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

Chapter 87 Moonlight: Oh no, I've become a backup option.

……

Just as Fengxiu's aura completely dissipated from Dream Paradise, the effects of the Conjoined Spirit Enhancement Pill also ended.

Yuehui felt the surging spiritual power within her body recede like a tide, replaced by a strong sense of weakness.

He released himself from the Qilin's possession and slowly descended from the sky.

"Are you alright?" Cai'er was the first to rush forward, nervously grabbing Yuehui's hand, her eyes full of worry.

At the same time, Lu Xi's healing magic landed on Yuehui in time, and a soft holy light enveloped his body.

Seeing his companions' nervous expressions, Yuehui smiled helplessly: "Don't be so nervous. I didn't use any forbidden techniques this time, so you'll be fine."

"Commander, how can you blame us for being worried?" Chen Ying'er's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was a little choked up. "You almost died more than a month ago. If it weren't for Grandpa Ling Xiao using every means possible, you would have been scattered like sand in Zhennan Pass!"

Her words were suddenly interrupted by a beam of emerald green light.

With a wave of her hand, Ye Xiaolei sent pure life energy into Yuehui's body, instantly dispelling all her weakness.

"Phew—" Yuehui breathed a sigh of relief and gave Ye Xiaolei a gentle smile: "Thanks, Xiaolei."

Ye Xiaolei shook her head, her light blue braid swaying gently with the movement.

She tilted her head back, her emerald green eyes sparkling with gratitude:
"I should be thanking you. If you hadn't intervened in time, I might have really been captured by that bad guy."

Hearing Ye Xiaolei's words, Yuehui's expression became somewhat complicated.

(Won't Fengxiu hold a grudge later?)

This time, he killed six of the top ten demon god inheritors and almost killed his son.

"Hey you, come here for a second!"

Ye Xiaolei suddenly waved to Long Haochen.

Long Haochen paused for a moment, but still stepped forward.

Ye Xiaolei stood on tiptoe, trying to pull open Long Haochen's clothes, but at six or seven years old, she couldn't reach him at all, and her little hands waved in vain in the air.

"Pfft."

The members of the 21st Demon Hunter Squad, all generals, couldn't help but burst out laughing when they saw this.

Ye Xiaolei stomped her foot angrily, her light blue braids sticking up: "Hey! You're the Child of Light, right?"

She sensed the pure, luminous aura emanating from Long Haochen as she released her life force.

“Yes, I am the Child of Light.” Long Haochen nodded gently. “Is there a problem?”

Ye Xiaolei tilted her head, her emerald green eyes filled with confusion: "What's wrong with this generation of humans? The Children of Heaven's Punishment, the Children of Light?"

She suddenly pointed at Long Haochen's neck, "What are you wearing? Let me see!"

Long Haochen subconsciously turned to look at Yuehui. After receiving a nod from the leader, he carefully opened his shirt to reveal the Eternal Melody hanging on his chest.

"Ah!" Ye Xiaolei's face darkened instantly upon seeing the pendant. She stomped her feet angrily and shouted, "The Chosen One of Light actually accepted the inheritance of that kind of person! What were you thinking!"

The members of the Demon Hunter team immediately tensed up, and Cai'er's hand was already on the dagger.

Yuehui quickly stepped forward and explained, "Xiaolei, this isn't Haochen's fault. It was Electrolux's own choice; we had no choice but to agree. Besides..."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Although it is the legacy of a necromancer, the essence of Ilex's power is light, which may be different from what you think."

"Humph!"

Ye Xiaolei made a face, her little nose wrinkled up, "A necromancer is a necromancer, why bother with different attributes!"

After saying that, she turned her head away and refused to look at Long Haochen again, instead gazing longingly at Yuehui.

"Child of Divine Punishment~" She suddenly switched to a sweet smile, "Let's make a deal!" Moonlight's lips twitched, inwardly screaming:

(Good grief, so she came to me because she didn't like Haochen?)

(Am I now just a backup option?)
"What kind of deal?" Moonbeam asked.

Ye Xiaolei strained to look up at the tall moonlight: "Moonlight, let's make a contract!"

Upon hearing this, Yuehui fell silent, inwardly cursing:
(What kind of magical girl signing ceremony is this?)

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ye Xiaolei stamped her feet anxiously: "Hey! Give me a straight answer!"

Cai'er couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Lei, why do you insist on making a contract with Moonlight?"

Ye Xiaolei's face immediately fell, and a trace of loneliness appeared in her emerald green eyes.

The voice suddenly became very soft:

"My sister is the goddess of nature, and the master of this dreamlike paradise."

She raised her head, gazing at the magnificent sunset in the distance. "Ever since she became a god, I've been left here to manage this world."

"It's been ten thousand years."

Her voice carried a sense of vicissitude that did not match her appearance.

"It's beautiful here, but I really want to go out and see the world." Ye Xiaolei's eyes suddenly reddened. "But to leave here, I must become a human's spirit furnace."

“I’ve waited for thousands of years.” She suddenly pointed at Long Haochen, “and finally found the most suitable one, but he actually chose the necromancer’s legacy!”

After saying that, she turned to Yuehui, her expression changing instantly to a fawning smile: "But it's good to have a fully awakened Son of Heavenly Punishment like you as a backup~"

Moonlight: "."

He silently took a half step back, his face full of disdain.

"Hey! Hey!" Ye Xiaolei stomped her feet in anger, her light blue braids sticking up. "What's with that disgusted look on your face?!"

"Ahem." Moonlight cleared his throat, crossed his arms, and said, "Tell me first, what are the benefits of forming a contract with you?"

"How can someone chosen by divine punishment be so mercenary!" Ye Xiaolei pouted, but still started counting on her fingers.

"First, I can help you fuse the spirit furnaces. Although the twelve spirit furnaces left behind by the demons are not all suitable for you, they can be combined to create the most suitable combination for you."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the twenty-first-rank generals lit up in unison.

"Secondly," Ye Xiaolei lowered her voice mysteriously, "after forming a contract with me, you will gain a portion of my life force. This will have a significant impact on your future."

She suddenly stopped, then waved her hand, "Never mind, it's too early for you."

"You mean the demigod realm, right?" Moonlight's lips curled into a playful smile.

"How did you know?!" Ye Xiaolei's eyes widened, her mouth agape enough to fit an egg.

“Because,” Moonbeam revealed her pearly white teeth, a dangerous glint in her eyes, “I’ve not only seen a demigod, but I’ve also personally killed one.”

The scene instantly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Ye Xiaolei stood frozen in place, her breath caught in her throat.

Cai'er and the others gasped in shock—they had never heard the commander mention this before.

"You...killed a demigod? How is that possible!"
