Before he could finish speaking, the system interrupted him, saying, "Don't worry, Ying is fine. She's perfectly alright, and it's impossible for anything to happen to her. Here's what we'll do: I'll take you back to the future first, and we'll figure out what to do with Ying later."

Wu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Ying was alright, but then he seemed to understand something after hearing what the system said next.

"I was too excited and lost my mind. Since the item is on me, Yingjie can't be in any danger. After all, if Yingjie dies and I go crazy and fight him to the death, or follow you back to three thousand years later, it wouldn't be good for either of them."

"So, they can't possibly harm Sister Ying, just to prevent me from acting impulsively and from going back with you."

As he spoke, Wu Qiu couldn't help but get angry and said, "System! You want to abandon Sister Ying and take me back, right? What you're doing is inhuman!"

The system felt a little embarrassed that its thoughts had been exposed, but it still said, "Don't say that. I was doing it for you. But when did you become so smart?"

Wu Qiu wanted to kick him, but couldn't, so she could only say, "I don't care! I'm not going back!"

The system began to persuade.

“Let’s go back first, then we can figure out what to do. It wouldn’t be good if your things got stolen again while you’re here. Besides, how are you going to save her? You can’t beat her.”

Wu Qiu didn't hesitate at all. "Nonsense, of course I'll trade my eyes for this! You really think I care about this? Compared to Sister Ying, this thing is nothing."

The system was speechless for a moment, but still said, "Alright then, but you need to hurry. In a few days, Tianli will be able to find this place. If you can't recover by then, you're doomed."

After saying that, the system fell silent. Wu Qiu was excited to hear that Tianli had come looking for him. That was great; he didn't have to search for it himself. However, he needed to recover quickly, and he also needed to figure out how to remove the eyeballs for him.

After all, Wu Qiu didn't want Ying to take any risks; it would be best to exchange her eyes directly. But the current situation was how to get them out himself.

In the days that followed, Wu Qiu focused on recovery and tried to regain her strength. Although she still couldn't move, she made some progress.

Heureia had no idea that Wu Qiu could see and hear, but she didn't do anything, just took care of herself, which touched Wu Qiu.

Although I don't know what Heureia is up to, since she's been so good to me, I might as well repay her sometime in the future.

This continued for three days. Finally, Wu Qiu could feel that his body had improved a lot and he estimated that he would recover soon.

Just then, Heulia entered. Wu Qiu no longer harbored any hostility towards her; in fact, he now regarded her as his benefactor.

However, Heuria looked very upset today, as if she had been wronged. She came to Wu Qiu's side, looked at Wu Qiu on the bed, and actually covered her face and started to cry.

"Holy crap, big sister, you're supposed to be a demon god, is it really okay for you to cry like this?"

Wu Qiu was speechless, but thinking of Cang Yu, he felt relieved. So what if he's a demon god? Demon gods have emotions too, and they can't even cry?

If he could, Wu Qiu wanted to comfort her, but he couldn't move. So, Wu Qiu could only watch and watch her cry.

After crying for a while, as if she had released her emotions, Heureia looked at Wu Qiu and slowly said, "I really hope that if I had your courage, then perhaps I could also protect my people."

Wu Qiu understood that Heuria was no weakling; at level 84, she could easily protect herself. After all, Heuria could easily find an even more powerful demon to cooperate with, such as going to find Morax with Gui Zhong, and live a very comfortable life.

However, she was too gentle and too fragile, making it impossible for anyone to accept her. After all, in a time of war, someone like her would only be a burden.

The next day arrived quickly. Wu Qiu had just woken up from his meditation when he immediately felt something was wrong with his body. Raising his hand, Wu Qiu subconsciously touched his head, and then froze.

"My body has recovered..."

Wu Qiu jumped up immediately and stomped his foot on the ground. He felt great now; not only were his injuries completely healed, but the feeling in his body was gone, and he had finally broken through level 80, becoming a true demon god.

Wu Qiu got up, pushed open the door, and went out. Just then, she bumped into Duheulia, who was walking by, and was taken aback when she saw the aggrieved look on her face.

"You, you're awake."

Heuria was caught off guard, then saw Wu Qiu smile slightly at her before turning to leave.

"and many more."

Heureia grabbed Wu Qiu's wrist, looked at him, lowered her head, and then said somewhat nervously, "You, you can..."

As expected, she did have something to ask of Wu Qiu, but Wu Qiu couldn't say much to her right now. After all, the situation was quite simple: Heaven's justice was probably coming soon. If she came here, it would be a catastrophe for this weak demon god and country.

So he grabbed Heureia's hand and spoke first: "I know you need something from me, but I need to leave now. But believe me, I will come back if I can, and I will definitely repay you then."

Without further hesitation, Wu Qiu unleashed his demonic energy and flew away. Behind him, Heureia watched Wu Qiu fly away, her eyes filled with grievance, but in the end, a resolute look remained.

Chapter 478: Guardian

Wu Qiu unleashed his power without restraint, solely to attract Tianli. It was now clear that Tianli had come to ask him for something, intending to exchange it for Ying.

At the same time, Wu Qiu also hoped that others, like Liu, could feel his power and come over, which would be the best outcome.

Sure enough, Wu Qiu soon felt a force approaching. That force was extremely powerful; even though Wu Qiu had now become a demon god-level powerhouse, he could still feel boundless pressure.

This is only a small part of their strength. What if it were all of them? How could they possibly fight?

As Wu Qiu was pondering this, suddenly, a person appeared before him. It was a very beautiful woman; it was indeed Tian Li.

At this moment, Tianli seemed to grow even stronger, looking at Wu Qiu with an aura that made Wu Qiu feel very uncomfortable. However, Wu Qiu could not show weakness, so she stared at her.

Where is Sister Ying?

Wu Qiu spoke. Tian Li looked at Wu Qiu indifferently, but a dark shadow flashed and a demon appeared beside her, saying, "Hehehe, kid, I really didn't expect you to have reached this level. You really surprise me."

"Where's Sister Ying?!"

Wu Qiu did not answer him, his eyes filled with nothing but coldness.

"Hehehe..."

With a wave of her hand, Ying appeared. She was trapped in a cage, a black cage filled with demonic energy.

However, Ying was indeed unharmed; in fact, her injuries had even healed. But her power was suppressed, so Ying had no way to resist.

"Xiao Qiuzi!"

Ying cried out and struggled, but to no avail. Looking at Ying, Wu Qiu activated his Transformation Eye. Seeing that she was truly unharmed, Wu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"What you want is on me. Release Sister Ying."

The demon shook his head. "Let's not talk about that now. Let's talk about something more interesting."

As he spoke, he looked at Wu Qiu and said, "I have to admit that I underestimated you before and didn't care about you. Now that you're a useful person, we don't need to act like this anymore, do we?"

"What do you mean?"

Wu Qiu didn't understand, but the demon chuckled and said, "What can you get over there? Nothing. But I can give you something real."

For example, the demon seed—that's my demon seed, and I can give it to you completely. Besides, think about it yourself: isn't everything you have now thanks to my power?

Wu Qiu wanted to refuse, but he couldn't. It was a fact that his current strength came from that demon, and he was using that demon's power.

Compared to the demon, the system gave him far too little; apart from a Transformation Eye, he received nothing else.

"Moreover, as long as you're with us, you can take this girl, the people you care about, and us and destroy this world together. After all, none of you belong to this world."

"Then, we'll go to the Upper Realm together, to the Demon Realm. Don't you want to see the boundless myriad worlds? As long as you follow me, you'll gain even more in the future."

As the demon spoke, it opened the cage and took Ying out of it. Yes, it took her out; wisps of black energy surrounded her, trapping her inside, but it also pushed her towards Wu Qiu.

"As long as you follow me, you can travel anywhere in the world and start your own new journey. Isn't that great?"

To be honest, Wu Qiu was somewhat tempted, but that was all. After all, Wu Qiu wasn't stupid. Did he think the regional guardian was a joke? If he really became possessed and ran around with Ying, it would be normal for him to be killed by the regional guardian.

After all, the system isn't the only regional guardian. If I'm strong enough, that's fine, but what if I'm not? This demon at its peak was only slightly stronger than the system; how strong can I be in the future?

However, Wu Qiu still pretended to be hesitant. Seeing Wu Qiu's expression, Ying quickly spoke up, "Xiao Qiu, don't listen to him! We..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was cut off. Looking at Wu Qiu, the demon finally spoke, "Make a decision. If you are willing, then I will help you transform your souls into demons, and then you will be true demons."

Wu Qiu hesitated for only a moment, then nodded, "Okay, let's go then."

As he spoke, Wu Qiu walked upstairs. He certainly didn't truly agree, but this was the only option at the moment. Therefore, Wu Qiu had no choice but to try and see if he could find an opportunity to rescue Ying.

Seeing Wu Qiu approach, the demon remained completely calm. He wasn't stupid; he wouldn't give Wu Qiu a chance to save anyone. Now, as long as Wu Qiu got closer, that thing wouldn't be able to escape.

Just as they were all calculating, suddenly, a white particle exploded behind them. It was so sudden that no one had time to react.

Heavenly justice and the demon turned back together, and Wu Qiu knew his opportunity had arrived. He activated his Eye of Transformation, and his power surged wildly. In that instant, Wu Qiu absorbed the demonic energy from Ying's body.

"hateful!"

Unexpectedly, other demons sensed Ying's disappearance and immediately unleashed a surge of demonic energy, bringing with them streams of power that swept towards Ying.

The moment Ying broke free, she spun around and used Wind Trace to shield herself. Almost as soon as she assumed her stance, she was flung away by a blast of demonic energy.

Wu Qiu rushed forward and caught her, and she carried him a long way backward. But in the end, Ying was saved.

Feeling the girl in his arms, Wu Qiu almost cried, hugging her tightly, "Sister Ying! That's wonderful, I'll never let you leave me again!"

Ying nudged Wu Qiu with her elbow and said, "Hey, stop fooling around. Now is not the time to fool around."

As he stood up, power flowed through the wind marks, and Tianli had already drawn his demonic sword and slashed at him.

They definitely have to take this sword head-on, but the problem is, they'll probably get injured if they do. After all, that demonic sword is very strange, and going head-to-head with it is practically suicide.

But there was no time left. Just as the Demon Sword was about to collide with Ying, a white, sand-like particle rose from the ground, instantly covering them and pulling them directly underground.

Wu Qiu and the others were stunned. When they came to their senses, they found themselves suddenly standing up, with Heuria standing beside them, and the earth in front of them destroyed by a single sword strike.

"Wow, that's amazing! We...we need to hurry!"

With that, Heureia grabbed them and started running. But they had only gone a few steps when a magical barrier rose up, trapping them inside.

Behind them, Tianli raised his hand, looking at them, and coldly spoke as demonic energy swirled around him: "Do you really think you can get away with this?"

As he spoke, his body vanished instantly, reappearing right in front of them. Upon seeing this, Wu Qiu raised his demonic energy to fight back, but felt an immense force strike him, scattering Wu Qiu and the others.

The three flew off in different directions. Tianli didn't hesitate at all; in a flash, he arrived behind Wu Qiu, who was flying backward.

He raised his greatsword and slashed at Wu Qiu. If this hit, Wu Qiu would surely die. However, at the most critical moment, Ying pushed Wu Qiu aside and turned around to meet the demonic sword with Feng Hen.

Boom!

With a loud bang, Ying was sent flying. Wu Qiu stood up and saw this scene, his eyes turning red. But soon he saw Tianli raise his hand, and a sharp blade gathered and then flew fiercely towards Ying.

In the current situation, Ying Gang had no chance to defend herself as she stood up. Seeing that she was about to be pierced through the body and die on the spot, Wu Qiu could only shout in grief and anger, "No!"

It was too late. He watched helplessly as Ying lay dying before his eyes. At that final moment, a figure appeared before Ying.

With a soft splatter, the blade pierced through her body, and streams of blood exploded out, splattering onto the ground and staining Ying's face red.

Ying stared in disbelief at the figure before her, her eyes trembling with disbelief. The figure in front of her shuddered slightly, then collapsed to its knees, utterly powerless.

"it hurts."

She murmured a single sentence softly, then collapsed into Ying's arms.

"Heureia!"

Wu Qiu was equally surprised; he hadn't expected Heureia to step in and shield Ying from that attack. But why, when she was so cowardly, did she…?

"Hmph! Ridiculous."
