Yet Euphemia merely stared at it coldly and said faintly, What is the point of playing dead? You wished to devour me, did you not? Come. I have come to you.Even after her words fell, the corrupted being remained completely motionless.Euphemia took a step forward. In the next instant, she suddenly swung her Green Bamboo Serpent Staff sharply toward her right. Venomous radiance surged forth, and a faint, delicate fragrance spread throughout the bamboo grove.The staff wreathed in toxic light struck a severed limb that had lunged violently toward her. Flesh on the limb seemed to wriggle incessantly.Euphemia unleashed her soul power and blasted the limb apart, scattering pale flesh and bone across the ground.Amid the burst of splattered gore, an imperceptible streak of black light suddenly shot straight for Euphemia’s glabella. It traveled at such blistering speed that even ordinary Elementary Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivators would fail to detect it.However, when the black light was

The golden flaming arrow traveled at blistering speed. Even mighty warriors such as Tabor could only catch a glimpse of golden light streaking across the sky.By the time they regained their senses, the arrow—wreathed in raging golden flames and resembling a snarling golden fire dragon—had slammed violently into the blood-oozing skin visage.In that instant, golden fire engulfed everything, as if the entire heavens had been set ablaze.The skin visage let out a bloodcurdling shriek and was incinerated at an astonishing rate. The golden flaming arrow pierced straight through it, hurtling toward the Soul-Devouring True Devil behind it.The devil unleashed endless shrill wails, swinging forth its massive palm and conjuring countless shadowy figures in a futile attempt to block the arrow.Yet the golden-flamed projectile advanced with unstoppable momentum, effortlessly tearing apart all of the devil’s defenses. Finally, beneath the astonished gazes of all onlookers, it sank directly into

At that moment, the Soul-Devouring True Devil hovering in midair slowly cast its gaze downward, locking onto everyone present. It let out a shrill screech, resembling the wail of an infant.Under this eerie sound, all of them turned deathly pale. Their strongest warriors had already been severely wounded, and it was clear that the devil was about to unleash unrestrained slaughter.Overwhelmed by terror, some attempted to flee frantically, disregarding the demonic mist entirely as they turned and rushed straight into it.Yet after taking only a few steps, the mist surged forth, corroding their protective soul power. Their movements gradually stiffened, their pupils turned pitch-black, and strange worms seemed to wriggle within their eyeballs.In the next instant, their bodies contorted grotesquely. They dropped to the ground and began crawling slowly back toward the battlefield.This sight plunged everyone into even deeper despair.The devil’s eerie gaze drifted across the sky, before

This armor was known as the Crimson Tortoise Mystic Armor, a defensive treasure of the Single Purple-Eye grade. Clearly, facing the horrifying attacks of the Soul-Devouring True Devil, Tabor no longer dared hold back and immediately brought out his life-preserving treasure.Farah quickly formed hand seals with both hands. A jade-green light bead rose from the top of her skull, emitting a circle of green light that shielded her within.Euphemia possessed no defensive Purple-Eye treasure, but the Green Bamboo Serpent Staff in her hands allowed her to defend through offense.With a thought, the gigantic Profound Serpent phantom behind her transformed into dark radiance and roared downward, pouring completely into the Green Bamboo Serpent Staff.The staff then left her hand, soared into the air, and burst forth with brilliant green light.In the next instant, the Green Bamboo Serpent Staff vanished, turning into a colossal green python hundreds of meters long. The python let out a deafeni

Albert retracted his hand. It seemed ordinary methods truly could not awaken the Lamp‑Bearer.His gaze shifted to the mottled, ancient bronze lamp in the Lamp‑Bearer’s hand.The lamp has gone out… the lamp has gone out…A faint, muffled mutter came from the Lamp‑Bearer’s lips, as if drifting across ancient ages, carrying a sense of profound vicissitudes.Brother Lamp‑Bearer, don’t worry. I’ll light it for you. Just give me some sign, please.Albert folded his hands in prayer, then stretched out his palm and activated the Nether God Forging Art. A wisp of translucent Netherworld Soul Fire immediately appeared in his hand.The very moment Albert conjured the Netherworld Soul Fire, whether it was an illusion or not, he felt the illusory figure of the Lamp‑Bearer before him seem to ripple slightly.It worked?!Albert’s spirits soared. He flicked his finger, and the Netherworld Soul Fire floated out, striking the ancient bronze lamp with perfect precision.He stared fixedly at the falling

Verity and Selene both stirred at his words and nodded.You’ve seen that mysterious Lamp‑Bearer too? We did encounter it earlier. It felt like an extremely dangerous presence, so we didn’t dare get too close. But we heard some people tried approaching it, hoping to trigger some kind of opportunity.Albert looked surprised. What happened?Verity frowned slightly. No one could reach it. That Lamp‑Bearer seemed unreal. No matter what method they used to approach, they couldn’t touch it at all.Selene turned to Albert and asked, You want to use the Lamp‑Bearer’s power to fight this otherworldly devil? It’s a good idea, but unfortunately, the Lamp‑Bearer is too mysterious. We don’t even know if it’s real. How could we borrow its power?Albert said calmly, We have to try anyway. If we keep waiting, the situation will only get worse.Verity paused for a moment. What do you plan to do?Albert smiled. I need you two to clear a path for me. There are too many corrupted beings out there. Tear a

Gilmore rubbed his eyes and let out a deep, long sigh. Oh… I don’t want your apology, kid. All I’ve ever wanted is your understanding.Mia nodded softly and sighed. I won’t meddle in your affairs from now on. I only hope you can handle all these relationships properly.For Mia now that she knew the whole story, she could no longer stop her father from seeing Ariana. Nevertheless, as Ava’s biological daughter, out of respect for her mother and their family of three, she could not openly support her father in pursuing Ariana.Thus, she believed the only thing she could do was stay out of her parents’ matters entirely.She would no longer involve herself in their past grievances or their present entanglements.Gilmore had never expected his daughter to stand firmly on his side. Her choosing not to interfere was already the best outcome he could have hoped for. Overjoyed, he said, Mia, thank you so much for this. You have no idea how much this means to me.Mia let out a quiet breath and s

Rest? No way, Gilmore said. I need to take a few photos with my phone and send them to your Aunt Ariana, to show her how great her taste is.With that, he immediately pulled out his phone.The moment he took it out, it started ringing. Gilmore muttered to himself, It’s Mia. Alan, don’t say anything silly. If Mia asks later, she mustn’t find out that I had dinner with your Aunt Ariana.Alan raised his right hand to cover half of his face. He truly had no idea how to respond to his foolish father-in-law.Gilmore pressed the answer button and said, Hello, Mia. Alan and I are on our way back already.From the back seat came Mia’s furious voice: Dad! You have truly disappointed me!Gilmore let out a startled yelp. His phone slipped from his grasp and fell into the gap between the seats.Ignoring the phone, he spun around and stared at Mia in terror. Mia??? How… how did you get in the car?!Mia asked angrily, Why wouldn’t I be here? If I hadn’t come along, I would never have known you’ve be

Alan nodded, drove Mia’s BMW out of the garage, and the two set off together for the Arc de Triomphe Western Restaurant.When they arrived, they saw several elderly people chatting and laughing at the entrance. Gilmore and Ariana stood side by side. Gilmore was quite handsome among middle-aged and elderly men, and Ariana’s temperament and beauty were outstanding among women her age. The two looked extremely well-matched together.At that moment, they chatted harmoniously and naturally with the other elders.Ariana was holding a gift box in her hand — the exact same caviar skincare set that Alan had given to Mia and Ava.Seeing this, Mia felt uneasy. She turned to Alan and asked, Do you think my dad is cheating?Alan laughed helplessly. Honey, where did that come from? Dad and Aunt Ariana are old classmates and friends. They’re just attending a gathering together; it has nothing to do with infidelity.Mia said anxiously, But don’t forget they were once lovers! They were each other’s fi

With that, he stood up and said, Mom, Mia, I’m going to pick up Dad. He had some drinks with the people from the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Mia stood up at this moment and said, Alan, I’ll go with you to pick him up.Alan didn’t think much of it and nodded gently. Alright, let’s take your car then.When Ava heard Gilmore was drinking outside, she said angrily, That old bastard is getting more and more reckless. Good son-in-law, don’t go pick him up. Let him drag himself home. When he does, I’ll lock the front door and not let him in. Make him sleep in the yard all night!Alan shrugged and said, Mom, don’t fall out with Dad like this. Everyone lives under the same roof. Even if you’re separated, you should get along nicely.Ava was as sharp as a tack and immediately realized Alan was hinting at something.She thought to herself resentfully: Even though Gilmore and I are separated, we still live in Alan’s villa. He definitely won’t be happy if we make a huge scene. If we end

After a moment of hesitation, Mia asked softly, Alan, I have something to ask you. You must answer me honestly, no lying.Alan nodded. Go ahead, honey.Mia held out the receipt in front of him and asked, Why does this say three skincare sets? It’s not that I don’t trust you, I just hope you can explain it to me.Alan was slightly surprised to see the receipt, but quickly realized what had happened — Claude must have slipped the receipt into one of the gift boxes after buying them.He glanced around to make sure Ava wasn’t nearby, then whispered, I’ll tell you the truth, babe. That extra set is for your dad.My dad? Mia asked in shock. He’s an old man, what would he want this for?I wasn’t supposed to tell you, but you’re my wife, so I can’t lie to you. But promise me — if I tell you, you won’t go confront him about it.Mia shot him a look. If you won’t let me confront him, how do I know you’re not lying to me?Alan quickly said, When have I ever been that kind of guy? I always own up

Ava said anxiously, Mia, come to my room right now! Come alone, don’t let Alan follow you!Mom, what’s wrong?I’ll tell you when you get here!Mia had no choice but to say to Alan, Mom wants me to go up.Alan didn’t think much of it and nodded gently.Mia took the elevator to the third floor and arrived at Ava’s room. As soon as she reached the door, Ava pulled her inside and immediately locked the door tightly. She said nervously, Sweetie! I think Alan is cheating on you!What? Cheating? Mia frowned. That can’t be.Can’t be? Ava immediately pulled out a receipt and blurted, Look at this! The receipt shows Alan bought three identical platinum sets. Why did he only bring home two? Where’s the extra one? He must have given it to some vixen outside!Mia believed Alan was truly devoted to her and could never be unfaithful.So she said earnestly to Ava, Mom, you’re overthinking! Alan would never cheat on me.Never? Ava snapped, Then tell me — why did he buy three sets, and only bring two h
