Inside the cave, everything became quiet.
One of the sixteen remaining demon lords of the Abyss perished completely, but the Domain of Bayan and the Will of the Abyss did not react at all.
Quietly, as if awaiting the final announcement.
Behind Ning Feng, the previously chaotic and even frenzied souls were unusually quiet at this moment.
The madness and chaos that had once dominated them dissipated, and tens of thousands of eyes were fixed on the young man in front of them.
Look at that demon king, who bore all the sins and sought revenge for them.
Ning Feng's somewhat ethereal figure emerged from the dead hunters. He opened his hood and looked up at the souls crowding the cavern.
"The direct culprit who brought such a tragic fate upon you is dead, completely, with absolutely no possibility of being resurrected."
"Of course, she was just one of the pawns, and the mastermind behind it all has not received the punishment he deserves."
"But I assure you, it's all just a matter of time."
With an unspeakable sadness in his eyes, Ning Feng looked at these flickering souls and sighed softly:
"Don't worry, I won't let those people get away with this, but I hope you can give me some more time."
No matter what he does, Ning Feng needs time the most.
He needs time to grow, to accept that force, and also needs time to make plans.
But what these souls lack most is time.
In their current state, they can't hold on for long.
Unless Ning Feng seals them in a special container, they will not dissipate, but their consciousness will become diluted over time, eventually turning into pure souls.
That was not what Ning Feng needed.
In silence, the souls within the cave did not answer, but gradually began to dissipate...
Watching the soul gradually dissipate from behind, Ning Feng sighed:
"Is it over? That's good..."
That's good.
...
...
In front of a room in the Bone Castle, Lily gently patted her cheeks.
"Yes! This is a task given to me by Lord Karan! I will definitely not let him down!"
The succubus Lily, who nominally belonged to the Queen but had long since sided with Kalan, cheered herself up.
Keep going! You can do it!
Although I don't know what Lord Karan's plans are this time, I'm the Queen's person anyway, so even if something happens later, it won't affect me.
She checked the time and knew it was time to act.
Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the door and entered the room, addressing all the queen's children whom she had specially summoned, and solemnly said:
"My lords, the Queen requests that you proceed to the palace now. Lord Karan has already entered."
Some people were puzzled, but they all remained silent under Lily's serious acting skills.
"This is the Queen's order. If you have any questions, please ask the Queen."
After saying that, Lily ignored what the others thought and led them directly toward the throne.
Um?
Lily looked at the half-open main hall door and pushed it open without thinking much.
Card……
!
!
"What……"
Everyone, including Lily who led them there, was stunned by the scene before them.
Blood splattered onto the pale, skeletal throne.
The once brutal and powerful Flame Demon Queen was now mercilessly nailed to her throne.
The king of the Bayan Domain for hundreds of years, the only demon lord... has died.
Her corpse and remains became a new symbol on the throne, proclaiming to those who came after her the terror of the person who sat upon it.
At that moment, the murderer wielding the sharp blade did not leave, but remained seated on the throne.
Blood dripped from the dagger in her hand, staining the entire throne with blood.
Looking up, a woman who resembled Karan and looked like the Flame Demon Queen in her youth came into everyone's view.
With his body stained with blood, the newly appointed demon lord, who had murdered his mother and usurped the throne, raised his head and calmly looked at everyone.
Without a word, just from the scene before them, everyone present clearly understood one thing.
The Domain of Ba Yan...
A new demon lord has arrived.
A new demon queen!
...
...
In the deep pit in the center of Fencheng, Ning Feng, whose consciousness had returned, sighed softly.
"Sigh... Is this all we can do in the end?"
(Please don't blame yourself.)
Ning Feng, who had been standing there silently, suddenly opened his eyes.
He felt the pressure on his shoulders suddenly lighten.
Looking back, he saw those innocent souls once again.
But this time, they were exceptionally different.
They smiled at the young man who was hiding his sadness deep inside.
No more words were spoken, but countless souls uttered the same thought at the same moment.
(Thanks)
Thank you for everything you've done for us, thank you for taking revenge on the murderer for us.
grateful!
Then, before Ning Feng could give an answer, these souls began to dissipate.
They were either embracing, holding hands, or alone.
As they headed away in the same direction, they thanked Ning Feng all the while.
After a long silence, he suddenly began to talk to himself:
"From the moment we are born, we all have sins, you and I both do."
"I speak of trial, but do I truly deserve it? Do I truly deserve their gratitude?"
"I want to be a hero, but many times I can't do what a hero does—eliminate danger before it happens."
