I'm only three years old, how could it be a world-ending catastrophe?

"Jiahao".

Jiang Luo looked at the still dazed shadow and pointed with her chubby little finger.

"Get this stinky, stupid dog cleaned up!"

"roar--!"

Jiahao received the order and let out a deafening roar.

Its enormous dragon mouth suddenly opened wide.

next second.

A golden beam of light, more dazzling and concentrated than ever before, burst forth from its mouth.

The beam of light seemed to have condensed the core of the sun, and wherever it passed, even space itself was distorted and burned under the high temperature.

The consciousness of the Lord of Nothingness returned at this moment, and he let out a cold snort full of disdain.

Although the dragon's power is strange and strong, it is ultimately just an external force.

Within its own [Void God Realm], as long as the [Heart of Nothingness] remains, it is invincible.

The reason I was ambushed by that little beast was because I was too careless and didn't expect that the other party could see through my core movement trajectory.

Now, it is on guard.

It didn't believe that this little beast could find a second chance!

Faced with the overwhelming golden dragon breath, the Void Lord did not dodge at all.

It immediately and frantically concentrated all its remaining power towards the core.

The shadow, which had become thinner, solidified and deepened once again.

Dark purple runes lit up layer upon layer around its core, eventually forming a seemingly indestructible spherical barrier.

It must withstand this blow.

Then, I will use my strongest power to completely annihilate this troublesome golden dragon, along with that little beast!

……

On the temporary defense line outside the hospital.

Wang Wu and the others watched nervously as the devastating golden dragon breath crashed violently into the newly coalescing darkness.

"We absolutely have to... succeed!"

Wang Wu clenched his fists tightly, his palms sweating profusely.

He knew that this was probably the child's last and strongest trump card.

If even this attack fails...

Then humanity would truly have no hope left.

……

The headquarters in Beijing, the branch in Nanjiang Province, and countless command centers around the world, including the Jiang Hongming couple and the Xu Heng couple in the hospital.

All eyes were fixed on the gold and black that were about to collide.

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

This strike will determine the fate of the entire world.

boom!

at last.

The golden dragon breath collided violently with the black barrier.

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

There was only utter silence.

In that instant, light and sound seemed to be completely swallowed up by two extreme forces.

All those watching this scene on the screen saw the image suddenly turn completely white, and all sound disappeared.

The piercing alarms blared wildly in every command center.

Satellite signal... interrupted!

This pure clash of forces has exceeded the limits of what modern technology can observe.

This interruption lasted for a full ten seconds.

When the picture and sound were finally restored.

Everyone saw it.

The golden dragon breath had dissipated.

The black shadow, though thinner than before and seemingly about to vanish at any moment, still... remained!

It held up!

It actually withstood that devastating blow!

despair.

Endless despair once again enveloped everyone's hearts.

If even such a terrifying attack cannot completely destroy it, who in this world can defeat it?

The Void Lord's triumphant and mocking thoughts echoed once more.

"Do you see that? You ants!"

"Before me, all your struggles are meaningless!"

"Next, I'll let you..."

however.

It stopped abruptly before it could finish speaking.

Because it suddenly discovered...

Where is that little beast?

That tiny figure that had been hovering in mid-air since just now... is gone!

Where have you been?

A strong sense of unease instantly welled up in the heart of the Void Lord.

And just then...

A childish, slightly mocking voice suddenly rang out from behind its core.

"Idiot dog."

You've been tricked.

The consciousness of the Void Lord suddenly froze, before he could react in any way.

A terrifying blade of light, indescribable in any language, seemingly capable of cleaving the entire world in two, suddenly shone brightly at its core.

Jiang Luo's figure appeared like a ghost directly behind the black barrier.

This is a completely undefended position left by the Lord of Nothingness in order to concentrate all his power on the front defense.

His clear, black-and-white eyes gleamed with extreme coldness.

He poured all four hundred-plus points from his [Strength] attribute panel into the short sword in his hand.

hum!

That rusty, seemingly ordinary short knife seemed to awaken completely at that moment.

Dark, lightning-like cracks spread and collapsed wildly in the space around the blade.

A pure, destructive aura erupted from the blade.

Use all your strength.

Jiang Luo unleashed this strike, imbued with his peak power, towards the [Heart of Nothingness], which was completely exposed to Jia Hao due to its all-out defense and was throbbing violently!

The short knife fell.

There was no earth-shattering noise.

There wasn't even the slightest sound.

Time seemed to have been paused at that moment.

next second.

Click!

A crisp sound, transmitted through the newly restored live streaming equipment, reached every corner of the world.

The sound was very soft.

But at this moment, it was more awe-inspiring than any thunder.

The Void Lord's massive shadow form froze completely in an instant.

Its smugness also came to an abrupt end.

Followed by.

"No--!!!"

A piercing roar, filled with endless pain and utter disbelief, emanated wildly from the depths of that dark core.

The enormous shadow that had enveloped the entire sky of Dongzhou began to collapse and crumble violently inward in an irreversible manner.

Streams of dark purple energy, like out-of-control fireworks, scattered and fled from its body, only to be instantly evaporated and annihilated upon contact with Jiang Luo's golden domain.

……

Outside the hospital.

Wang Wu stared blankly at the sky.

They watched as the darkness that had once filled them with endless despair rapidly dissipated.

Looking at that small figure hovering in mid-air, holding a short knife, like a god.

His mind was blank.

Won?

That's it...? We won?

A cataclysmic disaster that has plagued humanity for six hundred years and left the entire supernatural world helpless.

Just like that... he was killed by a three-year-old child with a single stab?

The prison guards behind him were all frozen in place, heads tilted back, mouths agape, unable to close their mouths for a long time.

What was happening before their eyes was completely beyond their comprehension.

……

The capital city, the Extraordinary General Bureau.

The highest conference room was deathly silent.

All the top officials of the General Administration stared intently at the collapsing dark shadow on the holographic projection, their faces filled with undisguised shock.

Long Wanjun, who was sitting in the main seat, had a calm face that was now filled with astonishment.

His hand, which was under the table, was trembling almost imperceptibly.

He had considered countless possibilities.

They even prepared for the worst-case scenario: that even if everyone sacrificed themselves, it would only buy them a few minutes of time.

But the one thing he never expected was...

This is the outcome.

……

Nanjiang Province, Extraordinary Bureau Branch.

As Mr. Chen watched the dramatic scene on the screen, he stood up abruptly in excitement.

Because he stood up so abruptly, the chair he was sitting on overturned and made a loud, jarring sound.

But he didn't care at all.

In those weathered eyes, only one emotion remained at that moment.

ecstasy!

You made the right bet!

They... really made the right bet!

……

In the sky.

Jiang Luo sheathed his dagger.

He glanced at the rapidly collapsing, raging dark core and curled his lip in disapproval.

Why are you shouting so loudly?

Noisy!

As expected, a stupid dog is a stupid dog!

He walked past the devastating energy storm with an expressionless face, as if strolling through a garden.

Then, she stretched out her chubby little hand.

It directly probed into the dark core that was collapsing rapidly.

next second.

He yanked out the Void Lord's core essence, which was still struggling and emitting piercing screams, as if he were catching a chick.

It was a pure, dark purple energy body that kept changing shape.

It struggled frantically in Jiang Luo's hands, seemingly trying to escape.

But Jiang Luo's hand was like an inescapable cage, tightly imprisoning it in his palm.

Jiang Luo looked down.

Then, in the deathly silence of the whole world.

He clasped his two little hands together.

It's like kneading a dough.

They forcefully kneaded the still frantically screaming core into a small black ball the size of a sugar pill.

After doing all this.

He casually tossed the "sugar pill" into his mouth.

Jiang Luo swallowed the last bite.

He smacked his lips.

The taste was alright.

It tastes better than the previous bone-shaped dish; it's a bit like black sesame paste and quite fragrant.

He completely devoured the Void Lord's core essence.

The dark domain that shrouded Dongzhou finally lost its last support.

Like the receding tide, it began to dissipate rapidly.

After several tens of minutes, the warm sunlight finally shone again on this ravaged city.

……

"We won!"

"We won!!!"

In the command center of Nanjiang Province, a cheer as loud as a landslide erupted.

All the staff members hugged each other excitedly, bursting into tears of joy.

Old Chen also had a smile on his face.

At the Beijing headquarters, Long Wanjun finally showed a relieved smile.

Outside the hospital, Wang Wu and all the surviving guards of the town prison could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears.

Around the world, in countless shelters.

When people saw the sun reappear, they all erupted in a deafening cheer of relief.

People cried, laughed, and hugged their relatives, friends, and strangers.

At this moment, words are superfluous.

At this moment, the joys and sorrows of all humankind are shared.

however.

Just as everyone was immersed in this hard-won ecstasy.

This ecstasy lasted for less than half a minute.
