Deep within the Xuanling Mountains, there is an inconspicuous little wooden house.
At this moment, more than six hundred extraterrestrial demons at the level of Hongmeng Saint Emperor stood quietly outside the small wooden house, their eyes focused on the tightly closed door, their faces full of awe.
Clearly, the people living in this small wooden house held extremely high prestige and status in the eyes of these extraterrestrial demons.
After a while, the door of the cabin slowly opened, and a figure walked out of the cabin.
The figure was tightly wrapped in a black robe, and even the face was covered by a black veil, making it impossible to see its true appearance.
Even so, her slender figure still exudes a unique charm.
Her steps were light and graceful, as if she had blended into her surroundings. When she stepped outside, the extraterrestrial demons all bowed their heads, showing their respect and obedience to her.
Her appearance made the whole scene solemn and dignified.
The mysterious woman stood there silently, but the aura emanating from her gave off a powerful sense of pressure.
Her presence seemed to bring a touch of mystery to this Xuanling Mountain Range.
The mysterious woman's cold gaze swept across the surrounding crowd, finally settling on a round-faced, burly man standing at the very front.
This round-faced, burly man was one of the people who had participated in the attack on Lin Zhendong.
His face showed unease and fear, and his body trembled slightly.
"Holy Maiden, what are your orders?" The round-faced man suppressed his inner panic and respectfully asked the mysterious woman.
However, his voice revealed a hint of undisguised tension.
After a moment of silence, the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan said calmly, "You bunch of useless trash! You can't even handle two humans. What use are you to me?"
Her tone was calm, but full of authority and indifference.
Before she finished speaking, the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan suddenly appeared in front of the round-faced giant like a ghost.
Her palm struck out without hesitation, so fast that it was impossible for anyone to react.
With a loud "boom," the round-faced man was instantly struck by a powerful force.
His eyes widened in shock, but he couldn't utter a sound. In the blink of an eye, his body turned into a cloud of blood mist and vanished into thin air.
Everyone present witnessed this horrific scene, their faces instantly turning ashen, a deep sense of fear rising within them.
They looked at the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan in horror, their eyes filled with awe.
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan's gaze was as cold as a knife as she slowly swept over the surrounding crowd.
Finally, her gaze fell on an old man dressed in a gray robe, and she asked coldly, "Cangwu, what are your plans next?"
Upon hearing this, Cangwu's expression changed slightly, but he still forced a smile and replied, "Your subordinate... Your subordinate believes we should take the initiative and not sit idly by and wait to be killed!"
"Otherwise, once all the powerful beings from the Outer Heavens gather here, we will likely face annihilation!"
"And our Soul Devouring Clan's meticulously planned scheme, which has been conceived over countless years, will be completely annihilated!"
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan nodded slightly, indicating her agreement with Cangwu's point of view.
She then fell into deep thought. After a moment, she spoke again: "Indeed, we cannot sit idly by and wait for our doom; we must take the initiative!"
"You make your own plans, don't ask me!"
"If anything unexpected happens, I will take action!"
"Alright, you can leave now!"
Cangwu nodded upon hearing this, not daring to say anything more, and turned to flee with the others.
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan stood quietly, her gaze fixed on the direction in which the group had departed, until they had completely disappeared from sight.
She slowly raised her right hand and gently lifted the veil from her face, finally revealing her hidden features.
It was a face of breathtaking beauty, as beautiful as a poem or a painting, so exquisite that it left people in awe.
Complex emotions flickered in the eyes of the Soul Devouring Clan's Holy Maiden. She gazed into the distance and murmured softly, "He... he's still alive! And right here in the Outer Heavens!"
Her voice carried a hint of surprise and doubt, but more than anything, it conveyed an indescribable emotion.
She frowned slightly and continued to mutter to herself, "Is this what they call a tragic fate?"
Just then, a clear, childlike voice broke the silence. From the small wooden house behind the Soul Devouring Clan's Holy Maiden came a boy's innocent voice: "Mommy, who is he you're talking about?"
Upon hearing this voice, the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan's expression changed slightly. She seemed somewhat flustered and instinctively turned around, her gaze falling upon the wooden house.
Immediately afterwards, a boy of about seven or eight years old appeared at the door.
He blinked his innocent, wide eyes, looking curiously at the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan, waiting for her answer.
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan seemed somewhat uncomfortable, and she casually replied, "I was just saying it offhand!"
The little boy blinked his innocent big eyes and stared straight at the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan.
After a while, the little boy pouted and gave a soft hum. "Mom, are you trying to fool a three-year-old?"
"I'm not a three-year-old, I'm already over eight years old!"
At this point, the little boy asked expectantly, "Mom, is the 'he' you just mentioned Dad?"
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan frowned slightly, her tone turning somewhat cold. "Little Lin, I'll emphasize this to you one last time: you don't have a father!"
The little boy muttered with a wronged expression, "I don't have a dad? Then how did I come to be?"
"Mom, could you have given birth to me all by yourself?"
"Hmph, I hate Mom! Mom is a big liar!"
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan opened her mouth, but ultimately sighed helplessly and said nothing, stepping directly into the small wooden house.
The little boy turned around and watched as the Soul Devouring Clan's Holy Maiden walked into the small wooden house, his eyes darting around.
A moment later, the little boy suddenly vanished without a trace.
The Soul Devouring Clan's Holy Maiden immediately noticed the little boy had left and rushed out of the small wooden house. "Little Lin, you better come back to me right now!"
"Mom, I'm going to find Dad, so don't come looking for me, you won't find me!" Xiao Lin replied, and then fell silent.
The Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan looked extremely grim. She had already opened her divine sense to its fullest extent, yet she still couldn't find any trace of Xiao Lin.
"well!"
Just then, a man's sigh rang out.
Why would you do this?
A middle-aged man appeared out of thin air beside the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan. "Little Lin has been clamoring to find his father all these years. You could stop him once, but you can't stop him countless times!"
