"Bar"

Su Yuehe suddenly spoke, looking at Chen Guan: "It was Baal who told you, it was Baal who taught you the meaning of the ancient language, right?"

Chen Guan did not answer, nor did he have time to think about why Su Yuehe knew about Baal's existence. He moved once again.

This time, he charged straight at Su Yuehe with an indomitable spirit.

You have to hit someone's mouth first.

If you just shut her up, everything will be over.

"She's going to use Slowness." Baal's voice rang out almost simultaneously with Chen Guan's movement: "A wide-range one, prepare to use illusion magic to deceive her."

Su Yuehe's lips moved, and she was about to utter a syllable.

However, Chen Guan was faster than her.

The trickster's supernatural power was activated, and a phantom exactly like him separated from his body.

In the blink of an eye, the phantom slowed down, as if it had sunk into an invisible quagmire.

Su Yuehe's gaze was drawn to the illusion.

However, Chen Guan's true form, taking advantage of the fraction of a second gained by the illusion, exerted force with its feet, its body drawing an angle in mid-air, cutting in like a ghost from her blind spot.

By the time Su Yuehe realized something was wrong, it was too late.

A cold, sharp blade was already thrust in front of her.

"She's going to use the Barrier," Baal's voice rang out again. "Quickly, interrupt her."

Su Yuehe reacted with lightning speed; just as the sickle was about to strike her, a short syllable was about to escape her lips.

Chen Guan did not give her that chance.

With a flick of his wrist, the massive scythe changed direction mid-flight, and with the broad back of the blade, without a trace of killing intent, slapped down towards Su Yuehe's arm.

Snapped.

A crisp sound.

Su Yuehe cried out in pain, the syllable that was about to form was interrupted in her throat, and she fell backward.

Having landed a successful blow, Chen Guan didn't pause for a moment. He touched the ground with his toes and shot backward, creating a distance of more than ten meters, just in time to dodge the spell attack that Su Yuehe silently released with her right hand.

"you……"

Su Yuehe clutched her numb arm, looking at Chen Guan with a blank expression in her eyes.

Why?

Why is it that he can always anticipate what he's going to do?

It was as if he could predict those ancient syllables that even she herself needed to expend effort to understand.

This feeling sent a chill down her spine; it was the sense of powerlessness she felt when facing her mother.

Is this what makes Baal so terrifying?

Since that's the case... we absolutely cannot allow such a monster to appear in the world.

Boom!

On the other side of the hall, the battlefield between Baihu and Su Jin erupted with another loud bang.

Chen Guan glanced over; the battle over there seemed to be even more intense.

He didn't have time to waste any more time.

"Kid, she's going all out." Baal's voice suddenly turned serious: "She's constructing a very complex sentence structure, not a single word, and I can't translate it right now."

Chen Guan's heart was suddenly clenched.

He looked at Su Yuehe.

The girl slowly lowered her hand from her arm. She stopped looking at the coffin and lowered her head. A strand of black hair slipped down her cheek, obscuring her expression.

An aura far more dangerous and ominous than ever before emanated from her.

A series of syllables that Chen Guan couldn't understand, but could sense the terrifying power contained within them, slowly flowed from her lips.

"She's saying, she's taking away the space in front of you." Baal's voice turned completely cold: "She wants to erase the space between you completely, so you can be swept away by the spatial rift."

Chen Guan's heart stopped for a moment, and his body became immobile at some point. He could only watch as the edges of the blue-glowing servers between him and Su Yuehe disappeared.

"Run!" Baal's voice almost roared in his head, "Who knows where this crack leads! If we fall into their territory, we're dead!"

run.

The body's instincts finally overcame the spatial constraints, unleashing astonishing power. Chen Guan pushed off with his feet, preparing to retreat with all his might.

too late.

It's too late.

That annihilating power is faster than light, faster than a thought.

He had only moved halfway backward when that eerie feeling of being detached from the world had already crept up to his toes.

He could even see the toes of his shoes disintegrating into billions of points of light, being sucked into that ever-expanding void.

Chen Guan's gaze passed over the all-consuming void and landed on Su Yuehe's face for the last time.

The girl had her head down, her black hair obscuring her expression, but Chen Guan could see that her body was trembling.

She looked up, a fleeting hint of apology in her eyes.

Su Yuehe knew where the crack led; her mother was here. Death was the best outcome for Chen Guan, but she didn't want Chen Guan to die, absolutely not.

The only solution is to move him away.

The mother had already stated that Chen Guan was Baal's contractor.

She didn't believe her mother's words at first. How could Chen Guan, who had fought to the death with demons several times, be a contractor of demons? Su Yuehe couldn't believe her mother's words no matter what.

But now that her mother had brought her here and let her witness everything firsthand, Su Yuehe could no longer think of any reason to exonerate him.

"You saved my life, so I'm sending you away."

Su Yuehe looked at him and murmured softly.

Only by going to the Void Realm can Chen Guan survive; Baal will rescue him.

On the other side, just as Chen Guan resigned himself to his fate, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Hey, it's not your turn to leave yet."

This voice does not belong here, nor does it belong to any being in this world.

Then, a foot clad in armor emerged from the air and landed on the chest of the coffin.

boom.

This kick felt like being struck head-on by a meteorite traveling at full speed; the bones in Chen Guan's chest seemed to scream in agony.

He was sent flying backwards.

In a dizzying frenzy, he tumbled around on the alloy floor a dozen times before finally coming to a stop after crashing hard into a row of servers.

A sweet taste rose in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his vision filled with exploding stars.

He forced himself to look up despite the excruciating pain and gaze ahead.

Right where he had just stood, the void that erased everything expanded to its limit, and then, like a punctured black balloon, it suddenly deflated inward.

The last thing Chen Guan saw was Su Yuehe's raised face.

His face was filled with astonishment, as if he hadn't expected someone to suddenly appear on the other side. The next second, the space closed.

Su Yuehe's figure, along with all traces of her existence, vanished completely from the world.

All that remained was an empty, pitted floorboard.

The control room was eerily quiet; even the sounds of fighting from Baihu's side had disappeared.

Su Jin stopped her attack.

Chen Guan's body stiffened, and he turned his head.

For the first time, the human council chairman, who had always been as calm and composed as an iceberg and in control of everything, showed a visible sway.

She slowly turned her head, her gaze passing over the white tiger and the summoned beasts, fixing on the spot where Su Yuehe had just disappeared.

An unprecedentedly terrifying killing intent spread out, pressing down on Chen Guan.

Angry, angry, angry!

Relying on the black mark on his palm, Chen Guan could clearly feel the unparalleled rage, a murderous intent that seemed to want to destroy everything.
