A night passed in the blink of an eye, and the great battle between good and evil was about to begin.
"Today is the day of the decisive battle. Success or failure is up to you."
Kagura scanned the crowd below the stage and said, "Tell me, do you want to win and return in triumph, or do you want to fail and tuck your tails between your legs back to your lair?"
"We must win."
"Speak louder, I can't hear you."
"Victory, victory, victory..."
Now that morale has been boosted, it's time to send troops.
Upon entering Sunset Valley, the righteous people were already prepared to enter.
The gongs sounded and the drums beat; the word was simple: kill.
Darkness descended, blood flowed like rivers, and the righteous path failed—a natural consequence.
Lie Yun led the remaining members to hold one end of Luoxia Valley, while Shen Le led the Demonic Cult followers to gradually surround them.
"Leader, we are surrounded by the evil cultists, and we cannot escape."
People have a tendency to blindly follow the crowd; if one person sighs, everyone will sigh.
Lie Yun frowned and said, "As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn."
Lie Yun touched the Qiankun Pearl; it was time to use it.
That night, twenty righteous experts, led by Lie Yun, risked their lives to activate the Qiankun Pearl, piercing through time and space to send the remaining righteous disciples to an unknown place, hoping that they would one day regroup and restore the righteous path to a bright and clear world.
When Kagura learned of this news, her expression remained calm, neither pleased nor angry; on the contrary, she was... predictably composed.
"Demon Lord, those righteous people are like weeds, which cannot be burned out by wildfire. Only by eradicating them completely can we feel at ease and protect the rule of my Demonic Sect for thousands of years."
Kagura sneered, "Do you think I don't want to? But the Heavenly Dao above won't allow it. What can I do? The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Dao is forty-nine, and humanity escapes one. Gods, demons, monsters, and human affairs all have a glimmer of hope. If the Heavenly Dao doesn't intervene personally, the righteous path will definitely rise from the ashes."
After nearly a century of hard work and the sacrifice of countless believers, thousands of years later, the vast land was still taken away by the righteous path. Who can understand Kagura's heartache?
"In this world, there is black and white, righteousness and evil, demons and immortals. The righteous and demonic sides each have their own duties, govern themselves, and follow their own paths, using different methods to stabilize this vast mortal world and conform to the karmic cycle of Heaven. The righteous path will not perish, and the demonic sect will not prosper forever. Since ancient times, the war between the righteous and the demonic has always been a battle where one side prevails over the other. This time, we have defeated those hypocrites of the righteous path. Sooner or later, they will make a comeback, but this time, they will not be the losers, and we will not be the victors."
So be it, so be it. Such is fate, and human effort cannot defy it.
The righteous path will retaliate, but that will be a matter of millions of years from now. Today is today, and tomorrow is tomorrow. After a great victory, we should celebrate with a hearty drink and sing loudly.
Ji Xiaoxiao had no interest in the gathering, so she packed her things and returned to the long-missed Yinhun Mountain.
Look at the flowers, look at the grass, look at the sun, look at the moon, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
That year, You Ran, who had disappeared without a trace, suddenly returned to Yin Hun Mountain.
"Junior sister, do you still remember what I said that day?"
Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and nodded seriously.
He smiled happily, his gentle and handsome face was incredibly charming.
"Junior sister, I...I like you, will you marry me?"
You Ran swallowed nervously, lowered his head slightly, and looked up at Ji Xiaoxiao.
Ji Xiaoxiao's smile froze on her face; she didn't know how to respond.
"Junior sister, I, You Ran, am enamored with your divine voice. Will you marry me?"
Let me repeat it again with a calm and serious tone.
Ji Xiaoxiao took a step back, leaving the area of You Ran's aura.
"You like me and want to marry me?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked in astonishment.
You Ran nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I like you, I want to marry you, and I want you to be with me..."
"Wait, stop talking, I know what you're going to say." Ji Xiaoxiao covered her face with her hand.
I was thinking about how to kill him, but you were thinking about getting me into bed!
Good heavens, what kind of people are these!
I am the best, and You Ran is not bad either.
The original owner vowed to become a top-tier demon lord, a bloodthirsty demon lord unprecedented and unparalleled, feared by all. Through Ji Xiaoxiao's relentless efforts, she is now undoubtedly the second-ranked demon lord of her generation. If she fails to become the number one demon lord, wouldn't all her years of hard work have been in vain?
No, no, even if we kill You Ran, the mission cannot fail.
However, things couldn't be that bad.
"I can grant your request."
That's quite a demand; what impressive diplomatic skills!
"Really?" You Ran's eyes lit up.
"but."
"What?" You Ran felt so nervous that she felt like she was about to stop breathing.
Ji Xiaoxiao raised her head and said, "I want to be the number one demon in the world."
"Okay." It was a small matter, so she readily agreed.
“But you’re standing in my way, so…” Ji Xiaoxiao hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.
Yu Ran shuddered at the thought, "Junior Sister, do you want me dead?"
"No." Ji Xiaoxiao denied that she was so heartless and ruthless.
Who wants to kill him? Ji Xiaoxiao was thinking of letting him taste the bitterness of being the eternal runner-up!
Ji Xiaoxiao told him her plan and leisurely carried it out.
Three days later, outside Yin Hun Mountain, the two fought, and You Ran suffered a crushing defeat, while Ji Xiaoxiao won easily.
"Hahaha... I'm finally number one!"
No academic superstar doesn't covet the top spot, and Ji Xiaoxiao, who values money like her parents, is no exception.
"Junior sister, I've done everything you asked me to do, so am I...?"
He was nervously rubbing his hands together, completely wasting his handsome face. Right now, he looked like a thug ready to rob and rape!
"Tell me, what do you want me to do? Marry me, or...?"
Ji Xiaoxiao appeared calm and composed, but in reality, she was uneasy and anxious.
