A Top Scholar in Everything

Although Yi Xian had considerable freedom to move about the Legendary Ship, in reality, her range of activity was still restricted to it.

This was something predestined after encountering Baiyu.

The situation was beyond personal control.

She and Baiyu could be described as "a good mentor and helpful friend," and the fact that both parties could coexist peacefully until now was already an incredible thing.

Yi Xian had even prepared herself to be confined and tormented by Baiyu.

After all.

She had deceived this student of hers more than once.

A good mentor and helpful friend.

Nothing more.

"Don't be tense. During your university years, you taught me a lot of useful knowledge. The grace of imparting knowledge is like a second creation.

Even though you have tricked me many times, these matters are insignificant."

Baiyu pulled up a chair and sat down, watching the landscape retreating continuously, speaking in a calm tone, "Those things are all in the past.

After all.

After experiencing the war at Zenith City.

I realized those former matters were at most minor trivialities, not worth dwelling on.

I've come here.

To discuss important matters with you, Teacher."

Yi Xian raised her head, "What business is it?"

"I have a paper to publish and need you to put your name on it, that's one thing. Additionally, I want to understand more about the one you adopted."

Baiyu looked towards the Moon Lady who was beside them.

...

Black Abyss City.

Zi Luo's face was ashen.

Looking at the frightened Demon Race people in the city, an unknown fury surged in his heart.

"Is this how easily the deity you Endless World worship is dealt with?"

"After expending such effort, you've only summoned a defective product?"

Zi Luo clenched the neck of a nearby alien from the Endless world, murder gleaming in his eyes.

Clank... clank...

The sound of bones colliding echoed continuously.

Nearby.

The Ghost-faced Race and several Demons were indifferent.

The Demon Race suffered the most this time.

If Zi Luo didn't have a chance to vent, who knows what extreme actions he might take.

"Please... I beg you, let me go, I didn't know..."

The leader of the Endless alien pleaded for mercy.

But.

Very soon his voice weakened completely, the flag lowered, life extinguished.

"Sir, there are still about a hundred thousand Endless people in Black Abyss City, how do you think they should be handled?"

Nearby.

A general from the Demon Race asked.

"Kill them all, make them into flesh weapons."

Zi Luo ordered without hesitation.

Upon hearing this.

A few Demons were somewhat surprised.

The other side was truly touched to their core this time.

But the aliens of the Endless world had no backing, even the deities they worshiped fled into Aurora during the ancient god war, far from reality, unable to wield power.

So kill them as you will.

Even if those hundred thousand people remain, the Endless aliens would be nearly extinct, of no consequence.

However.

Using a hundred thousand people to forge flesh weapons, Zi Luo's method was truly ruthless.

"Our urgent matter now is to resolve the Shelter issue.

This attack on Black Abyss City was a complete failure, although Zenith City suffered heavy losses, the Shelter of Zenith City was left relatively unscathed.

It even retains considerable strength.

Going forward.

Their real counterattack is likely to start soon."

Ghost-faced Race's leader, Thousand-Faced King, spoke.

Demons from Wumian Mansion nodded in agreement, "The situation in Black Abyss City will become very difficult, this time, we've essentially demolished Zenith City's plans.

After years of preparation, now everything is exposed.

Going forward.

Zenith City will enter a vacuum period, and it will be hard for our Demon forces to intervene.

The pressure on Black Abyss City will double.

Especially if the new officials appointed in Zenith City are pro-war, the situation may grow even worse."

A Demon added.

Zi Luo's expression was grim, holding back a surge of anger.

With Black Abyss City in this condition, aren't you lot also responsible, thinking about leaving when things go wrong?

"Black Abyss City, in the Dark Realm, is our Demon Alliance's first line of defense. If I fall, East Prosperity Imperial troops will easily penetrate, posing a great threat to Thousand-Faced City of the Ghost-faced Race, and Sea Monster City controlled by Wumian Mansion.

At this point.

No one can run.

Humans have a saying, when the lips are gone, the teeth feel the cold, you should understand this principle."

Zi Luo sneered coldly.

The hall went silent for a moment.

"Of course, it's not as though we don't have opportunities; I'll first consult my father's opinion."

Zi Luo's eyes swept the hall, "However, if anything arises that Black Abyss City can't handle, you will all have to come up with solutions.

All these years.

The pressure from Zenith City's Shelter was borne down by Black Abyss City.

Hopefully, you all understand this point."

Having said that.

Zi Luo turned without looking back and walked out of the hall.

The people from the Ghost-faced Race and Wumian Mansion also realized the gravity of the current situation.

Initially.

The three races united, plus the Demons, aiming to break Zenith City, consuming a massive population of Zenith City residents for blood sacrifices to summon the Divine Spirit worshiped by Endless World, the Reverse Hatchling's Egg.

This was one of the oldest deities.

As long as they could connect with the Reverse Hatchling's Egg, they could siphon its power to disrupt the entire Maple Leaf County's domain.

And also revitalize the entire Endless World.

After all.

The Endless World was originally one of the Divine countries left by this deity.

But the ideal was grand, and reality was cruel.

This plan, strictly speaking, they flawlessly executed the first half, and even obtained the remaining husk of the Reverse Hatchling's Egg.

Using it as a medium.

They conducted extensive research.

Finally finding a suitable host, they implanted the remaining husk of the Reverse Hatchling's Egg into the host's belly.

Everything proceeded methodically.

Then.

Came the scene in the square of Zenith City.

The sudden phantom, and a heaven-shattering sword, directly shattered all the aliens' dreams.

Zenith City had such experts?

No.

It should be said that East Prosperity Imperial surprisingly still hid experts of this level.

Previously.

They were completely unaware.

A power capable of slaying a child of the Evil God, even if not at a deity's level, certainly approached it.

Such a level of powerful being.

Not pursuing the supreme path of deity, yet lingering among the mundane, was simply absurd.

Of course.

Among humans, powerful beings of many absurdities always emerge.

"Thousand-Faced King, we must immediately return to Wumian Mansion, report the results of this matter, and not tarry."

After Zi Luo left.

Several Demons immediately exited Black Abyss City.

The leader of the Ghost-faced Race, Thousand-Faced King, looked grim. Even a fool could understand that Black Abyss City would definitely drag them down together.

What Zi Luo said wasn't wrong either.

If Black Abyss City fell, Thousand-Faced City would also face threats.

Thinking this, Thousand-Faced King lost any lingering notions and quickly followed the Demons, departing in haste.

Meanwhile.

Zi Luo opened numerous checkpoints, reaching the forbidden area within Black Abyss City.

A place no one else was allowed to approach, aside from him.

Of course.

Many might not have guessed that within this forbidden area, there was only a small pool of water.
