Flames crackled and burned the structure of the mansion. As the flames swept through, a roof beam collapsed. In the shadows, Huang Quan held a katana as long as a man, pointing it at Duke Minghuo.
"They're alive, and so are you."
Huang Quan looked at Grand Duke Minghuo with somewhat wooden eyes, showing no murderous intent.
She came here only to obtain a pass to Pinocchio.
"You still have a choice. Leave the music box behind, and then go."
She said lightly.
"Choice? The path of destruction is fraught with blood, and there is no room for hesitation."
Grand Duke of Netherfire braced himself to make himself appear less embarrassed.
"The Fire Demon of Topfit... Even if you offer your life to that star god, you will not gain His favor."
Looking at Grand Duke Netherfire, Huang Quan said calmly.
"Wandering knight, you travel in a narrow hunting ground, so naturally you cannot understand. We come from the fire, we are born from the fire, we spread, burn, destroy, until the firewood is burned out, leaving behind only ashes."
Burning is the life of the fire demon, its beginning and its end. We live towards death, merely to embody a aspect of the universal truth: all things are born to be destroyed.
"Your companions don't seem to think so. They fought for your chance to survive."
Huang Quan said calmly.
"They are my children, like I once was, flames yet to burn brightly. They are still young, and I will not blame them. But my flame has already grown hoarse, and time is running out. Do you see the distant star of the grand gathering, Pinocchio? I will take purgatory there, so before that, I must cross you."
Because you have gone further than I have in the path they opened up... Messenger.
In just a brief exchange, Alfredo recognized the person in front of him. She was definitely not an ordinary Fate Walker, but a Commander. Only a Commander could possess such powerful and oppressive combat strength.
“You can’t hide your identity. Draw that knife. We will stay here, and we are destined to fight to the death, because I ‘choose’ to do so. Destruction is a glorious moment, but if we seek survival through base means… this life is too long.”
"Wow, that's determined. I like that. If you weren't a messenger of destruction, I might be happy to be your friend."
As the two were talking, two footsteps slowly appeared in the burning hall.
The speaker was Wei Yi.
She and Feixiao stood side by side, watching Grand Duke Afrit of the Underworld with great interest.
He had originally planned to teach the other party a lesson, but now it seems he might not need to.
I encountered a shrimp-headed swordsman, whose swordplay was so fierce it was like a monster's, and I couldn't defeat him no matter how hard I tried.
This statement is perfectly fitting for Lord Afrique, the Lord of the Underworld.
The two came here for the tickets to Pinocchio and the music box in the hands of the Grand Duke of the Underworld.
"It seems there is an uninvited guest arriving."
As Fei Xiao spoke, watching the billowing smoke rising from the flames, he gently waved his hand, and the next moment...
A strong gust of wind filled the room.
Wind can fan a fire, but if the wind is too strong, it may not be able to extinguish the flames.
This phrase couldn't be more fitting for Fei Xiao; the whirlwind she unleashed was enough to extinguish everything.
"However, I don't recall any other hunting envoys besides the Seven Heavenly Generals of the Imperial Bow."
As he spoke, Fei Xiao looked at the other party with great interest. The Duke of Minghuo claimed that the other party was a wandering knight, but as a messenger of the hunting party, Fei Xiao could not see any hunting aura on the other party.
Similarly, her identity could not be ascertained; she was like a black hole, devouring everything.
The only certainty is that Fei Xiao's body trembled slightly upon seeing Huang Quan. It wasn't because Wei Yi used the Kaioken in this situation, nor because Fei Xiao felt afraid when he saw Huang Quan, but rather because he was excited—excited about a powerful enemy!
Feixiao's intuition told her that the woman in front of her, wielding a huge katana, was someone she could fight with all her might.
"It seems you're not the only one eyeing me, Ranger. But there's only one music box here. If you're capable, come and take it."
As the Grand Duke of the Underworld spoke, flames surged forth.
He had already decided to embark on the path of destruction, so he didn't care how many enemies would appear today.
This is a trial. If he can overcome it, it means he has gone further down the path of destruction. If he cannot overcome it, he will also face his own destruction.
"Don't worry, since we're already late, we'll naturally follow the rules. We don't have the habit of taking what others want; it's just an invitation. If all else fails, we can get it through other means."
Seeing Huang Quan looking at him and Fei Xiao with a probing gaze, Wei Yi shrugged.
However, Wei Yi felt that... the figure in front of him seemed somewhat familiar?
He pinched his chin, staring intently at Huang Quan, as if trying to discern something from him.
Seeing that Wei Yi and Fei Xiao did not intend to make a move, Huang Quan turned to look at Grand Duke Minghuo.
"Even if the answer might be your own destruction?"
"The answer is not important; what matters is that it exists, just as you exist. Everything exists to be destroyed, and so does everything else."
Even in the void, beautiful dreams can be born; what seems impossible is merely something yet to come.
Seeing the determination of the Underworld Fire Duke, Huang Quan nodded.
"Okay, I promise you."
"You will witness the most violent fire in the world, and may this burning illuminate your unfathomable dreams."
As the Grand Duke of Netherfire spoke, the flames on his body burned even more intensely. However, from Wei Yi's perspective, it looked like a final burst of energy before death.
"A bottomless dream...indeed, but you've misunderstood something. This knife remains sheathed, not out of pity or contempt, but as a secret I wish to keep hidden, as a form of retaliation..."
Huang Quan hesitated for a moment, somewhat concerned about Fei Xiao and Wei Yi behind her, but then she put them out of her mind.
The attitude of the Grand Duke of the Underworld won her approval and respect. In return, she would do everything in her power to send him to his death.
“I confess to you, hunting is not the path I’m on.”
As she spoke, she gently drew her sword, the sound of the blade being drawn slowly wafting through the air.
Huang Quan's body also slowly faded at this moment.
The red spider lilies bloomed on her body, like a ferryman on the River Styx.
At the same time, everything around them seemed to slow down, and Wei Yi and Fei Xiao's eyes widened.
A veiled messenger? How is that possible?
The Void Star God is different from other Star Gods. It has no appearance or form, and even no self-awareness. Since this is the case, it naturally does not bestow blessings, and there is no such thing as a messenger.
However, the incredibly dense power of nothingness emanating from Huang Quan could not lie; the other party was undoubtedly a living messenger, a messenger of nothingness that should not exist!
In this black and white world, even the brilliant flames on the Netherfire Duke's body became insignificant, leaving only black and white, and... a touch of red on Huang Quan's body.
"I mourn for the deceased..."
A tear of blood gently rolled down his cheek.
"Tears fell like rain, filling the river to overflow!"
The next moment, she gently swung her sword towards the body of the Darkfire Duke!
In an instant, the crimson blade light swept across everything. In that world as deep as a black hole, only that splash of red was so vibrant and eye-catching.
Under this beam of light, the magnificent flames of the Underfire Grand Duke were insignificant, seemingly worthless.
Yes, even destruction is worthless in the face of nothingness, because... after destruction comes nothingness!
boom!
The crimson light of the blade disturbed the peace of the fire demons, who all turned to look in one direction.
That was the place of the Eternal Fire Palace, the direction in which their king existed.
At this moment, their king was completely swallowed up by nothingness.
After everything was over, Huang Quan slowly sheathed his crimson longsword.
The gravitational pull, which was like a black hole, gradually dissipated, and everything returned to normal.
"Even I find it very bothersome to be stared at like that."
Huang Quan snapped out of her daze, looked at Wei Yi's fixed gaze, and said calmly.
"Excuse me, you look a lot like someone I used to know. But...have we really not met somewhere before?"
Reminded by Huang Quan, Wei Yi came to his senses and quickly apologized.
Then, Wei Yi looked at Huang Quan again, staring intently at him. He had a feeling that he had seen the two of them somewhere before.
The void of Qqunjiu6 zero billion ②⑹two prayers 0 power... void!! ?
Wei Yi suddenly remembered that when she saved Bai Heng, she was almost swallowed up by the power of nothingness and lost her mind. However, at the last moment, she saw a red light, and it was with that red light that she was able to escape the erosion of nothingness.
Beside him, Fei Xiao couldn't help but shake his head: "Sorry, he's always been like this."
As he spoke, he slapped Wei Yi.
You idiot, don't you know that looking at a lady like that is very rude?
"No, no, no, I remember now, I did see you, at the edge of nothingness."
Wei Yi shook his head and looked at Huang Quan again, wanting to see if the other party remembered him.
"It's...you?"
Huang Quan looked at Wei Yi, slowly placing one hand on the hilt of her sword. The next moment, she frowned slightly.
As the guardian of nothingness, Huang Quan will guide those who do not wish to fall into nothingness, leading them away from that world.
Just recently, she also saw an existence at the edge of nothingness.
However, this being is different from ordinary people. Under the erosion of nothingness, his consciousness is completely clear, which is completely different from those self-destructors in the past.
You should know that in that place, apart from her, Huang Quan had never seen anyone who could completely preserve their consciousness.
"Have you two met before?"
Fei Xiao, standing to the side, was also somewhat puzzled. What kind of riddles were you two trying to solve?
Seeing that Fei Xiao didn't understand what was going on, Wei Yi explained how he had saved Bai Heng earlier.
"I see. So you almost got swallowed by the void while trying to save Bai Heng, is that what you mean?"
After listening to Wei Yi's words, Fei Xiao looked at him with a smile.
