Why must the devil be Defeated?

Moon Demon Territory, Central City.

This is a space located ten thousand meters underground, beneath the Central City.

At first glance, it looks like a stalactite cave buried beneath the earth, with sharp rock spikes everywhere and the constant sound of water dripping, which is exceptionally clear in this silent underground.

If you look closely, there stands an ice pillar in the center of this cave-like underground space.

Within the ice pillar, Gold's outline is clearly visible.

Indeed, this is where Hette Yada used to imprison Gold.

Gold is frozen here, completely unconscious.

Logically speaking, in this place that is as deep as ten thousand meters underground, it should be impossible for anyone to arrive.

Yet at a certain moment, a figure silently appeared here.

It was a woman with a cold and alluring face, her aura relatively gentle, like a fairy descending from the moon, yet her eyes showed a fierce coldness, adding a sense of danger.

The woman looked at Gold, who was frozen here, and snorted coldly.

"What a waste."

With that, the woman extended her hand, placing her slender palm on the ice pillar.

"Sizzle...!"

The white misty chill on the ice pillar immediately started to fluctuate, climbing up her body along her hand.

The freezing effect imposed by Hette Yada was not something that could be casually touched.

The extreme cold that could even freeze time—if touched carelessly—the result would definitely be turning into an ice statue instantly, following the same plight as the person inside the ice pillar.

However, the woman treated this coldness as if she didn't see it.

On her hand, a gentle moonlike glow appeared, entwining with the chill creeping up her arm.

In an instant, the moonlight and chill mutually neutralized.

That glow from the moonlight actually dispelled the extreme cold capable of freezing time.

Thus, the woman manipulated the moonlight, letting it cling to the ice pillar.

However, after a while, the woman frowned.

"As expected, the ice freeze personally imposed by that woman cannot be easily dispelled by me."

Although it wasn't a terrifying freezing ability unleashed through berserk uncontrolled actions like those mindless women of the Ice Woman Clan, that woman, like herself, is a Limit Level existence, the ice she personally imposed cannot be easily dispelled even by herself.

Unless...

"Ignoring the person inside the ice freeze... is it?"

Just as the demons dared not indiscriminately act, fearing they might hurt the Ice Woman Clan members who were frozen, if the woman wanted to dispel the extreme cold, she wasn't unable to do it, but there's no way to care about the safety of the person inside.

Since that's the case...

"You're gone then."

Without any hesitation, the woman let the moonlight surge, thoroughly engulfing the ice pillar.

"Boom!"

The next second, the ice pillar shattered into icy dust.

Along with it shattered Gold, who was frozen.

A top-tier Legendary Level strong individual, once a subordinate officer under Poison Demon, was erased just like that.

The woman withdrew her hand as if she had just completed an unpleasant task.

At that moment...

"No matter how you speak of your apostle, to discard them so decisively, isn't it too wasteful?"

A suave and gentle voice came from behind, making the woman pause and turn coldly.

The next second, a considerate Demon Clan man sitting on a rock, surrounded by black-robed Demon Warrior guards, came into the woman's view.

It was Danass.

The woman coldly looked at Danass.

"Do you have the right to speak to me?" The woman said very coldly, "The demon spirit who wreaked havoc in Taiger Forest is also your apostle, right? In the end, you discarded her too, didn't you?"

"This is truly an injustice." Danass spread his hands, with an innocent tone, "She was dealt with by that hero because she was too reckless herself, not that I killed her."

Even if you didn't kill her personally, you abandoned her.

Otherwise, even though you were there at the time, why did you choose to stand by and not save her?

The woman wanted to say this but held back.

She knew no matter what she said, without solid evidence, she couldn't hold anything against the man before her, who only knows how to use tactics.

No matter how she criticized him or pointed out his anomalies, he would brush it off with an innocent smile.

That's why the woman disliked him, constantly guarding against him, having no trust in him at all.

Even if he is that Lord's son, it's the same.

"How I act isn't your concern," the woman's tone grew colder, "To prevent the intelligence of the Primordial Demon from being leaked, a mere apostle, discarded, is discarded."

"Is that so?" Danass seemed unconvinced, his expression gradually becoming intriguing.

No choice.

"Are you sure you want to prevent the intelligence of the Primordial Demon from being leaked, rather than your intelligence being leaked?"

Danass said this.

"...What do you mean?"

After a pause, the woman squeezed out these words.

"What do I mean, you should be very clear about that."

Danass didn't mind, just continued to watch the woman and smiled.

Then, Danass spoke slowly.

"Knowing that you have escaped long ago, and joined the Primordial Demon, becoming its ambassador, your sister's expression should be quite something."

"Don't you think so?"

"Miss Aya Gren."

With these words, the air in the entire underground space changed.

The temperature seemed to plummet rapidly, covering the entire underground space with an extraordinarily low temperature.

It wasn't just an ordinary low temperature, but an unimaginably extreme cold that could cause everything to collapse instantly.

"Boom!"

The entire underground space instantly crumbled into powder under the coverage of this unimaginable extreme cold.

...

"Bang!"

Outside the central city, in a secluded place, a figure was protected by several black-robed Demon Warriors, breaking through with the shock of magic power, rising to the surface.

"Swish!"

A beam of moonlight also burst forth from the ground, appearing instantly, dropping the temperature of the entire world by several degrees.

"Ah, truly terrifying."

Danass patted his chest, looking as if he had lingering fear, guarded heavily by the Demon Warriors.

And in the moonlight that cooled the earth, a coldly beautiful woman appeared quietly.

"Do you really think I dare not kill you? Danass."

The woman—Aya Gren gazed at Danass, her eyes filled with a deadly aura she hadn't shown before.

Bathed in such killing intent, Danass felt as if the space around him was frozen, making him uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the Demon Warriors protected Danass in the center, and in the shock of magic power, managed to keep him unharmed.

Danass bore the feeling of tightness in his chest, yet the smile on his face was undiminished.

"No wonder you survived that experiment, not only have you elevated yourself to Limit Level, but also mutated the Power of Ice Luo Qianliu so terrifyingly."

Danass ignored Aya Gren's killing glare, speaking to himself.

"But, Lady of the Ice Woman Clan, I've heard your clan is born with a cold personality, rarely caring about anything, including your own life. Now just mentioning your sister, you couldn't bear it, which doesn't match your clan's characteristics at all?"

Danass seemed to be challenging Aya Gren's limits, speaking with an elegant expression, and full of taunting words.

Aya Gren really wanted to kill this pretentious young master, yet was stung by his words.

"...I've long forgotten that woman."

Aya Gren could only suppress her inner emotions and deny softly.

"Really?" Danass murmured with a faint smile: "Then you're so agitated over someone you've supposedly forgotten, you're far more humane than I imagined, our esteemed Moon Ambassador."

Aya Gren remained silent.

The moonlight around her, which seemed to crush space, was withdrawn.

The enveloping low temperature also gradually dissipated, allowing the frozen space to return to normal.

Aya Gren looked coldly at Danass once again, and left him with such words.

"Don't let me catch an opportunity, otherwise, I will kill you."

After finishing, Aya Gren disappeared from her spot.

Danass watched this scene, the smile on his face gradually fading away.

Replaced by a hint of apprehension.

"That woman is truly terrifying."

Danass murmured to himself.

Behind him, a young girl's voice sounded.

"Is this the Ice Woman Clan?" The girl marveled: "No wonder they could once turn the tide on the battlefield a thousand years ago, the ability to freeze even space and time, truly astonishing."

"Indeed." Danass acknowledged frankly: "Not to mention, that woman's ability has evolved, not only can she freeze space and time but also shatter and destroy them, such power is beyond even her sister's reach."

"I'm curious, what kind of experiment did she go through to become so powerful."

The girl said this.

"You better not." Danass laughed but advised: "Believe me, you wouldn't want to know, though it can't match the profoundness of your Great Spirit Body creation ritual, the cruelty exceeds it."

"Alright then, I won't ask." The girl promptly gave up and added: "With a woman this strong, it's best not to provoke her casually; otherwise, merely with those dolls of yours, which only have power but no Unique Skills, couldn't possibly handle her."

"I know." Danass replied calmly: "But, isn't there still you?"

"Oh?" The girl seemed to raise an eyebrow and said: "You want me to take action?"

"If needed," Danass didn't deny: "That woman has always suspected me, on guard against me, and even secretly investigating me. Given this, I'm afraid I'll have to kill her sooner or later."

The things he intended to do were indeed not meant to see the light.

At least, not now.

"Understood, if necessary, I'll take action."

The girl carelessly agreed.

"Thank you."

Danass nodded, also smiling indifferently.
