"And the Bear Clan too!"
...
Seeing everyone's complete change of heart, Gu Liyan smiled and nodded, "Let's go quickly. If the humans notice and attack directly, there will be no chance!"
Watching everyone leave, Gu Liyan's body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.
"Hey, you!" Mo Chen hurriedly steadied him. "You really can't be trusted! I just warned you, and you still..."
"At this critical moment, I can't worry about anything else. Mo Chen, help me inside. We'll be back here!" Gu Liyan felt weak and uncomfortable.
"Fine, I'm really impressed by you!" Mo Chen said helplessly.
Just as the two were about to step into the portal, a dark figure swiftly pushed Mo Chen in first.
Upon entering the portal, Mo Chen found himself in a completely different place. Turning around, he discovered the portal had vanished.
Gu Liyan's expression changed as he looked at Ying Xiao, who was blocking his way. "It's you... Do you want to avenge your people?"
"Revenge? Heh, not at all. On the contrary, I should thank you for indirectly eliminating those monsters who were monitoring me!" Ying Xiao said with a ferocious expression.
"What?" Gu Liyan stared at Ying Xiao with her Hua Hun Tong eyes, and was immediately shocked. "So you...you're not a demon!"
"Hmph, you're right. I can't call myself a demon! Nor am I human! To you demons who value bloodlines, I'm a mixed-race demon! And to humans, I'm an anomaly!" Ying Xiao said coldly. "But seeing you, I'm quite excited! Because you are a monster!"
Gu Liyan's face was pale. Looking at the murderous intent that Ying Xiao unintentionally revealed, he asked, "You want to kill me?"
"Heh, kill you? From the moment you opened this door, I noticed your aura had become unusually weak. I reckon you'd fall seriously ill even without me lifting a finger. I think the places in this world you can't see are actually much darker! I wonder if the human race will let you live if I leave you here all alone?" Ying Xiao laughed heartily.
Gu Liyan stared at Ying Xiao and calmly said, "You had murderous intent towards me when we fought back then. I should have realized then that you used the human race's demon-trapping formation to restrict my movements, and then used your ultimate technique on me..."
Ying Xiao raised an eyebrow. "How exactly did you escape the formation?"
"Do you think a mere level one formation can trap me? On the contrary, what surprises me is your defense against the Xuanbing. I thought I had overdone it, but I didn't expect you to actually survive! I think your bloodline is not so ordinary, is it?" Gu Liyan said coldly.
"Heh, I didn't expect you to see through me. I am actually from the Snow Sculpture lineage!" Ying Xiao said.
Gu Liyan took a deep breath. "Just as I thought..."
"Gu Liyan, what a pity! You only had one day as the Demon King!" Ying Xiao said, retreating to the teleportation portal. "I really wanted to stay and see what happened to you next..."
Gu Liyan's face darkened; he could already hear the footsteps of humans approaching.
"Farewell, Demon King!" Ying Xiao bowed slightly, chuckled, and then raised his hand, sending a silver arrow flying swiftly toward Gu Liyan.
Gu Liyan was shocked and hurriedly dodged, but because of his weak body, he could only avoid the vital points in time. In an instant, the flying arrow passed through his left shoulder, and the intense pain made him groan.
"Demon King, don't you possess the Mystic Ice Domain? I'll let you taste the burning sensation of flames! Hahahaha..." After saying that, Ying Xiao laughed loudly and turned to walk into the teleportation portal.
Gu Liyan looked down at the runes engraved on the arrow, his face deathly pale. "Soul-Burning Curse..."
Thump—
Gu Liyan collapsed to the ground, a burning pain emanating from his lungs spreading throughout his body. Even his Xuanbing Body could not withstand the scorching heat from the curse!
The portal closed, and Gu Liyan, hearing the approaching footsteps, closed her eyes in despair—
