Chapter 312 What You See Is What I Want You to See
"Gao Huohuo, did you see it?" His low voice echoed in the dark space.
"The demons, humans, and devils have all submitted. Heaven's way is broken, and I will replace it!"
Gao Huohuo stood there holding a sword, his face pale, his eyes filled with anger and despair.
She stared at Xue Ming intently, her voice hoarse: "You... really think you won?"
Xue Ming chuckled: "What else? Your allies are either dead or surrendered. Even Zhong Hanshang, the one you trust the most, is now-"
"What?"
A cold voice suddenly came from behind Xue Ming.
Xue Ming's pupils suddenly shrank, and he turned around abruptly—
Zhong Hanshang, who should have been seriously injured and dying, was now standing behind him unharmed.
The long sword in his hand shone coldly, pointing directly at his back!
"You..." The smile on Xue Ming's face finally froze.
Gao Huohuo slowly stood up straight, and the anger and despair in his eyes faded like the tide.
Instead, there was a cold smile.
"Xue Ming, do you think what you showed us is the truth?"
She tapped her fingertips lightly, and the darkness around her shattered like a mirror.
"Unfortunately, what you saw was only what we wanted you to see."
The fragments fell away, and the true scene finally emerged—
In the demon clan’s territory, beneath Huan Ye’s throne, kneeling were not powerful demon clan members, but puppets controlled by spells!
In Wanbao Tower, the secret order signed by the Seventh Young Master turned into ashes the moment he put pen to paper.
Standing behind him was the real Wanbao Tower owner and her master Shen Cangxuan!
In the Demonic Abyss, Ying's body turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated.
The real Ying and Mei had already reunited with Zhong Hanshang with the information!
Xue Ming's expression finally changed: "Impossible! I clearly——"
"You clearly used the Soul Devouring Orb to spy on our memories?"
Gao Huohuo sneered, "Unfortunately, you don't know that I have two Lingyun Stones, and we both carry them with us all the time."
She raised her hand, and a golden light of destruction shone brightly: "From the beginning to the end, what you saw was the beautiful dream we wove for you."
Zhong Hanshang's sword edge moved closer, his voice icy cold:
"You think Luoxia City is the 'heart' of Heaven? You're wrong. It's just a cage that seals your true self!"
"Why do you think Sect Leader Li appeared once and then disappeared?" Gao Huohuo sneered.
"He has long been waiting for you to actively integrate that 'incomplete Heavenly Dao'.
Because that is not the Way of Heaven at all, but a 'Demon Slaying Formation' specially prepared for you in ancient times!"
Xue Ming finally realized something and suddenly looked at the black bead in his hand——
The originally pitch-black beads now appeared with dense golden runes!
"You only discovered it now?" Gao Huohuo opened her red lips slightly, "It's too late."
She and Zhong Hanshang formed seals at the same time and shouted in unison:
"The formation is up—!"
"boom--!!!"
The skeletal throne under Xue Ming's feet collapsed with a loud bang, and countless golden chains shot out from the void, wrapping around him tightly!
The black bead in his hand burst out with dazzling golden light, and the souls he devoured broke free from their restraints one by one and turned against their masters!
"No--!!" Xue Ming screamed miserably, his body gradually disintegrating in the golden light, "I clearly already--"
"Have you figured everything out?" Gao Huohuo stood outside the formation, looking down at him coldly.
"Unfortunately, from the moment you set your sights on Zhong Hanshang, you were doomed to fail."
She raised her hand, and the evil-breaking force turned into a golden lightning, striking directly at Xue Ming's brow.
"Because my master and his men have been preparing for this situation for three hundred years."
The golden light engulfed everything, and the Soul Devourer's screams came to an abrupt end.
When the light faded, the sky of Luoxia City finally cleared up.
Gao Huohuo put away his sword and turned to look at Zhong Hanshang: "It's over."
Zhong Hanshang nodded, but suddenly frowned: "Wait, the residual soul of Xue Ming..."
Gao Huohuo chuckled: "Don't worry, it has long been swallowed up by the Heavenly Dao without leaving any residue."
She looked up at the blue sky and said softly:
"After all, the best fisherman in the world..."
"But it's never been a demon."
Three months later, the turmoil in the three realms gradually subsided.
In the battle of Luoxia City, Xue Ming was killed and the Soul-Devouring Demon lineage was completely destroyed.
The demon race returned to peace after Huan Ye's death, the various human factions began to recuperate, and the demon race was restored to order by Ying and Mei.
Gao Huohuo stood on the top of the sea of clouds, looked at the rising sun in the distance, and let out a breath.
Until a mysterious will suddenly descended into her sea of consciousness.
"High fire fire."
A majestic and ancient voice sounded deep in her soul, as if it came from across eternity.
She was slightly startled, and then she understood - this was the voice of heaven.
"It's you." she whispered.
"That's right." Tiandao's voice was calm and profound.
"The 'system' within you is actually a strand of my will."
Gao Huohuo's eyes flickered slightly: "So, my traveling here wasn't accidental?"
"Ever since the Soul Devouring Demon first disrupted the order of the Three Realms, I have been searching for someone who can carry the power of Heaven."
Tian Dao said slowly, "Unfortunately, for thousands of years, no one has been able to truly match it, until - your soul transcended time and space and arrived."
"Your master, Shen Cangxuan, failed to survive the tribulation that year, not because of his lack of cultivation."
Tian Dao continued, "Instead, he voluntarily gave up his ascension and signed a contract with me."
Gao Huohuo was shocked. This was the first time she heard about her master from someone else.
"He is willing to stay in the human world, secretly uniting various forces, just to wait for someone who can truly end the scourge of the Soul Devourer."
Tiandao's voice was filled with a hint of regret, "And you and Zhong Hanshang are the 'opportunity' he has been waiting for."
"Cold Light, Purple Shadow, and even Breaking Evil, I prepared them all for you."
Tian Dao said slowly, "Their existence is not only to help you grow, but also to conceal your presence and prevent Xue Ming from detecting you too early."
Gao Huohuo looked down at the cold sword in her hand, and her clear eyes were reflected on the sword.
"So, from the beginning, this was a game?"
"Yes and no."
Tiandao's voice gradually faded away, "The game is dead, but people are alive."
Three hundred years ago, on the day when Shen Cangxuan failed to survive the tribulation, the Heavenly Dao spoke to him for the first time.
"If the Soul Devourer remains undead, the Three Realms will eventually be destroyed."
Therefore, this cultivator who was supposed to ascend to heaven was willing to seal his cultivation level, show his golden elixir to others, and hide himself from the world.
He traveled through the three realms, making secret plans, waiting for the variable that could carry the power of heaven.
Until one day, he caught a glimpse of the clue in his deduction.
A soul from another world is about to descend into this world.
Shen Cangxuan knew that this soul would appear in an inconspicuous town.
He deliberately mentioned it to Lou Chongxiao: "I heard that a rare treasure has appeared in Qingyan Town in the Southern Wasteland recently."
Lou Chongxiao really went there.
On that day, Gao Huohuo had just escaped from the Shadow Sect and was planning to find a new sect.
Shen Cangxuan did not recognize him immediately.
He watched her join the sect, watched her lead a group of senior brothers and sisters to explore secret realms and break deadlocks, and watched her step by step to where she is today.
She is indeed different.
