Chapter 75

(First, I would like to thank book friend 1312291101 and kihowl for the generous rewards. I am extremely grateful and offer this 3,000-word chapter in return. Sniff, the recommendations are so pitiful. I beg for recommendations, clicks, collections, and support. Hehe.)

They say that when one is in pain, time seems to stretch infinitely, while when one is happy, time flies by. Er Dongsheng felt particularly happy at this moment, and before he knew it, three days had passed in the blink of an eye!

Today was a clear day, and the fierce blizzard had finally stopped. Er Dongsheng, who had been cooped up in the cave and was about to rust, decided to go out for a walk!

He didn't bring the two little burdens. Sometimes, traveling alone seemed more peaceful and beautiful!

The sky was vast, and he walked alone. The boundless snow-covered world was vast and desolate, yet it was also beautiful!

He liked this atmosphere! He also enjoyed being alone, though he disliked the feeling of having no attachments. He knew that demons were always alone, and in their long lives, they had to adapt to this loneliness! Every great demon who made it to the end enjoyed solitude!

Walking through the forest, he cautiously felt the surroundings. After the blizzard, it was a good time for ice-type beasts to come out of their dens in large numbers!

"Huh!"

"Interesting, there are guests here!"

Looking at the rows of footprints on the ground, Er Dongsheng was deep in thought. These footprints were definitely fresh; otherwise, the blizzard would have erased them in just a minute!

However, it seemed that quite a few people had come! He decided to follow them! They had actually come to his territory! How bold of them.

...

"Sister, are we not there yet? The clan members can't hold on any longer!" Panting heavily, Sivir was increasingly exhausted. Several days of continuous high-intensity travel, evasion, and hunting had left not only the team members but even she, a first-level demon, in a sorry state!

"Hold on! We're almost there!" A hint of worry flashed in Hiljet's eyes. The snow was too heavy, covering all the mountains with a layer of white. Now, except for knowing they were heading south along the mountain range, it was very difficult to identify the mountain where the great adult lived among so many peaks!

"Let's go, we must speed up! Those guys are still chasing us relentlessly!" Patting her sister's shoulder, Hiljet sighed and prepared to continue on.

"Bad news, bad news!" A small Abyssal Elf ran over, looking panicked. The current team consisted of weak fighters, the elderly, the sick, and the injured. The stronger ones had all left! Although there was no concept of old age in the Abyss!

"Clan leaders, another member has fainted! What should we do, what should we do!" The newcomer was a young elf, her delicate and exhausted face filled with panic. The one who fainted was her best friend, and she couldn't help but be anxious!

The Abyssal Elves were known for their strong sense of unity and collective consciousness in the Abyss, probably because their racial skills required them to work together!

The three of them didn't have time to rest and hurriedly ran back to the rear of the group! The sisters were responsible for scouting ahead, while another newly promoted demon in the clan took care of the rear. This arrangement provided the best protection for the middle of the group!

...

"How is it them?"

Er Dongsheng emerged from behind a tree, staring at the three figures in the distance with a puzzled look. He had just noticed the group behind them, and they looked familiar. After a closer look, he realized they were from an old acquaintance's clan!

"Why didn't they stay in the trading camp and come all the way here?"

Very puzzled, Er Dongsheng decided to observe them more closely. It was rare to have some entertainment during these boring days, and he couldn't let it pass!

The demon's nature to join in the fun suddenly flared up! He quietly followed them!

"Simir, Simir! How can it be Simir!" The Hiljet sisters looked at the little elf who had fainted in the snow, their faces changing. This Abyssal Elf named Simir was related to them, as her name suggested, but that wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that this little one was a mutant elf, a gift for the great adult! If she died...

They might seem cruel, but it wasn't entirely so. They weren't just sacrificing this little one for the clan. Mutant elves were very popular among demons in the Abyss, and with proper cultivation, they could become capable subordinates. So, Simir might have a better life with the great adult! Moreover, Hiljet felt that the demon who was mockingly called the "Master of the Earth" in the camp wasn't cruel, as he had once spared her!

This was also the reason she had decided to head south and seek refuge with the great adult, regardless of the risks! And only the great adult could stand up to...

Hiljet quickly picked up the fainted little elf and examined her injuries, her face suddenly changing!

"Something's wrong, this isn't a natural faint. These wounds, this technique... This is...!"

"Roslica! What's going on!" Hiljet stood up abruptly, her face dark as she stared at a calm male elf in the distance. He was the only male elf in the group and the newly promoted demon!

"What's going on? It's just what it is! I knocked her out!" The exceptionally handsome Roslica, with a blank expression, stroked the bow in his hand and said calmly.

"You, why did you do this!" Compared to the fiery-tempered Hiljet, her sister Sivir was much calmer, which was why she was in charge of the clan!

"Why!" Slowly raising his head, he stroked a faint scar on his brow, a reminder of a near-death battle with a beast. His handsome face suddenly twisted!

"You ask me why? Ha, ha, ha!" Laughing wildly, tears streamed down his face uncontrollably!

"What a foolish question! Of course, it's for survival!" His voice gradually lowered, and he looked at the dozen or so injured and disoriented members around him, feeling even more certain of his choice!

"I'm not wrong, you are. This clan is finished, there's no need for it to exist anymore!" His voice was cold and indifferent, conveying a bone-chilling coldness!

"I've escorted you all the way, and I, Roslica, have repaid your upbringing. Now, for my own sake, I can't help it!"

"You..."

"Sister, don't say anything. He's no longer one of us. Look at the mark on his weapon!" Sivir stopped Hiljet from rushing forward, speaking calmly. Only a hint of shadow flashed in her bright eyes. If she wasn't mistaken...

"Clap, clap, clap!" A round of applause came from behind Roslica, and several figures emerged from behind him. The leader was none other than the Sky Overlord, Chixiao!

"I didn't expect even Overlord Chixiao to be here. It seems we're truly finished this time!" Looking at Sky Overlord Chixiao and his few lackeys, Hiljet's face was full of bitterness. They had been running and hiding, but they never expected to be cornered here!

"No wonder we couldn't escape your pursuit all along. It turns out there was a traitor deliberately leaving marks!" Sivir looked at Roslica with a mocking expression, no longer feeling any emotion. The outcome was already decided, and they could only accept it passively!

They were like pitiful insects on a spider's web, struggling and waiting for death to come!

"Ha, ha, give it to me. Hand over that mutant elf and tell me your true names. If I'm in a good mood, I might spare your lives!" Chixiao's eyes gleamed as he looked at the Hiljet sisters. He had been lusting after them for a long time but had refrained from making a move due to the powerful Elf Queen in the trading camp. These beautiful races like Succubi, Elves, and others were the favorites of demons like him! As for the mutant elf, it was a nice bonus!

Now, he finally had the chance, and he couldn't let it slip away!

"You, shameless!" Sivir couldn't hold back and burst out in anger!

This was why they were unwilling to seek refuge with other Overlords. These perverted demons were all scum!

"Wait," Hiljet held back her sister.

"Overlord Chixiao, I belong to the great adult. Are you sure you want to offend him?" She stepped forward, looking Chixiao in the eye.

"The great adult? Who? Ha, ha, who dares to snatch my things!" Chixiao laughed maniacally, his face full of disdain!

"There is, the Master of the Earth, Lord Baal!"

The moment this name was mentioned, the surroundings fell silent! Mentioning this name in front of the Sky Overlord was like courting death!

"Ma... Master of the... Earth..." Chixiao's laughter abruptly stopped, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly became furious!

"What trash Baal! When I see him again, I'll show him why the flowers are so red!"

"Damn, you little girl, you're asking for it!"

Chixiao's face twisted in anger, and he took a step forward, ready to finish off this insolent brat! How dare she defy the authority of an Overlord!

"Die!"

Whoosh!

Bang!

A pitch-black, yet familiar and terrifying spear descended from the sky, piercing the void and embedding itself in the ground in front of him, less than half a meter away! His raised foot suddenly stopped, as if he were a puppet.

"Trash?"

A faint voice echoed above the heads of the demons.

Then came a wave of intense heat, which was extremely unusual in the cold weather!

Flapping his massive wings of the Flame Demon, Er Dongsheng looked down at the demons below with a blank expression.

"Try saying it again!"
