"Anxia!"

Hua Yi cried out for her mistake, feeling as if a huge rock was pressing on her heart, and her face turned pale.

Jiang Ruan was the first to arrive, but An Chun was the first to fly to Hua Yi.

She fell against a stone pillar in the hall with a "crack," the sound of bones breaking.

"Ah..." An Chun groaned and then fainted, losing consciousness.

At this moment, An Xia's hazy eyes reflected An Chun flying away in an arc, and the guilt and unease in her heart were greatly reduced because of An Chun's knife.

Hua Yi held An Xia in her arms, Jiang Ruan used healing magic to heal her wounds, while Gu An guarded the group of crazed phantoms.

"Ruan... Ruan Ruan, thank you so much. It's true, how come I'm the one who keeps troubling you after the apocalypse? I'm so sorry!"

An Xia's weak voice came from Hua Yi's arms, and her slightly trembling arm reached out and precisely grasped Jiang Ruan's hand that was treating her.

"No, don't save me, Ruan Ruan... I might not make it, I feel so tired, you should go, An Chun... sigh..." An Xia's voice grew weaker and weaker, and she fainted shortly afterward.

Jiang Ruan had used her healing magic to its fullest extent. Although she had subdued the Azure Dragon, it had not completely submitted to her. In other words, she was currently unable to use the healing bonus it provided.

Therefore, it would be somewhat difficult to directly save Anxia.

But Jiang Ruan had done her best, and at least An Xia was no longer in danger of losing her life.

Even if she did, her powers wouldn't allow her to die.

Therefore, those people became her new targets.

Jiang Ruan stopped what she was doing, stood up, and turned her gaze toward the area where the fight was raging, but she didn't notice at all that someone was trying to drag An Chun away.

The sword flew from the palm and landed on the man's moving hand. Although it was dodged, it still injured him.

The person who tried to pull An Chun away during the chaos was none other than the Demon Lord.

"What? Run away or protect? No matter which you do, none of you will escape death today."

Jiang Ruan's voice was cold and devoid of any warmth.

Anxia's injuries stung her; she had to act quickly. There were too many zombies here, and she couldn't afford to delay, or she might be in danger.

The Demon Lord casually wiped her blood-soaked hands with her sleeve, her amber eyes filled with Jiang Ruan's reflection.

His voice carried a seductive quality as he walked step by step toward Jiang Ruan, shielding An Chun behind him.

"I never expected it to be you. If I'm not mistaken, it was you at the zombie building, the police station, and the Yanbian coast. You really are a persistent ghost."

The Demon Lord smiled coldly and faced Jiang Ruan without any panic.

"Hehe, that was originally what I wanted to say, but I can add: meeting me is your bad luck, but facing me is your 'great fortune.' In the end, this score needs to be settled properly."

Without wasting any more words with him, Jiang Ruan directly drew her sword and charged forward, with Gu An following closely behind, joining the fight against the Demon Lord.

"Bullying the weak with numbers, is this kind of behavior morally right?" The Enchantress, exhausted from taking three swords in succession, grumbled at the two of them.

“Dealing with someone like you would normally be enough for me alone, but we just can’t resist the urge to do it, especially with a bad person like you.

So no matter what happens, whatever you face, be more tolerant. If you have any grievances, you can go to the underworld and seek justice from the King of Hell.

Jiang Ruan knew that he was stalling for time so that all the elite zombies could arrive as soon as possible to provide support.

Although I knew in my previous life that the Phantom Clan had a secret technique that could be passed down to them and that they could control zombies in the apocalypse, actually knowing it was one thing and actually seeing it was another.

In the beginning, the Phantom Clan was entrusted to Du Ning's management in order to conquer all directions, so how she ultimately resolved these issues remains unknown to him.

Ultimately, he didn't tell us.

It was a bit troublesome, but thankfully it was resolved. I focused solely on the result, ignoring the process.

Therefore, Jiang Ruan still doesn't know the weakness of the Phantom Clan.

The Demon Lord's lips curled up into a wild and unrestrained smile, his laughter echoing in the air, seemingly carrying endless mockery and contempt.

"Hahahaha... What an arrogant person! How dare you, a mere woman, spout nonsense about cause and effect and retribution, and even presume to predict my life and death? Are you simply too ignorant, or are you just incompetent?"

Jiang Ruan didn't take the Demon Lord's mockery to heart.

At this moment, she had no intention of engaging in a war of words with the Demon Lord; her thoughts were simple and clear.

Initially, she came here only to find An Chun, but now the situation has changed, and her only goal is to ensure that everyone can return to their original place safely.

Therefore, the Demon Lord is doomed.

No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead may be, Jiang Ruan is determined to move forward steadfastly and is determined to accomplish her mission.

"Gu An, we need to finish this quickly; we can't drag this out any longer."

Jiang Ruan looked at Gu An, who had been somewhat silent, and saw that although he was still agile, his face was a little pale. She secretly thought that something was wrong.

Gu An seemed to be suppressing something, and replied in a muffled voice with "Okay" before falling silent, focusing all his attention on the fight to kill the Demon Lord.

"Ahhh!" Under Gu An's relentless and fierce attacks, the Demon Lord's back and arms were stabbed, leaving long trails of blood.

At that moment, the horde of zombies that had been waiting swarmed to the door.

The roars nearly blew the ceiling off the hall, and the Phantoms who were fighting retreated, separating themselves from Jiang Ruan and the others.

As soon as they separated, they were about ten meters apart.

The leader of the demons made some complicated hand gestures in front of his chest and then muttered incantations, just like the charlatans you usually see on the street.

Jiang Ruan dared not let her guard down, and with her sword, she protected the others inside the protective shield that Gu An had subsequently deployed.

The zombie horde was originally noisy and chaotic, but as the Demon Lord changed his gestures, the zombie horde quieted down, but their eyes turned blood red.

There's a hint of an impending explosion...

There was a reason why Jiang Ruan did not stop the Demon Lord.

Based solely on her intuition, she knew that the Demon Lord's actions must involve using a technique similar to sacrificing her own energy to stimulate the zombies.

She had some doubts at first, but when she saw the crimson eyes of each zombie, she instantly understood and was certain.

She also wanted to see just how powerful the Demon Lord was, that she could control so many zombies at the same time and transform them all into level two zombies.

That's interesting!

This is also doing a favor for myself. With so many zombies, there must be quite a few crystals, which would be a great benefit for upgrading the space.

"A bunch of petty scoundrels dare to lay a finger on us, it's utterly laughable."
