Chapter 998: Chapter 766: Heavenly Demon Annihilation, The World’s Watch (Part 2)

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly and agreed.

Subsequently, Qin An stopped his chatter and swiftly headed in one direction, his figure soon disappearing at the edge of this world.

After seeing Qin An leave, Emperor Xuanwu sat cross-legged on the ground again, recuperating from his internal injuries.

He, being a cultivator of the No-Self Realm, recovered at an incredibly fast pace.

Originally, he was severely injured, but after a short period, his wounds had remarkably healed.

Emperor Xuanwu slowly opened his eyes and clenched his fist: "Next is to pacify the turmoil. The Daqian Kingdom will experience a period of peace, but the world they mentioned is still an energy source ready to explode at any moment. Alas, let’s not think about it now; solving immediate matters is the priority."

Not just Qin An, but any No-Self cultivator who has contacted that world, would feel a sense of despair in their heart.

But with soldiers to fight invaders and dirt to dam floodwaters, solve the nearby troubles first, then explore what that world truly is.

Soon, Emperor Xuanwu got up as well, flew away from this place, and rushed toward the next city.

The place once again returned to silence; besides the mess on the ground, no life could be seen.

...

Meanwhile, Qin An was on his way to provide support, yet all the Heavenly Demons were plunged into despair.

They were Heavenly Demons—before destroying these worlds, they had established some special connection with each other.

Whenever a Heavenly Demon died, they could feel it.

Thus, when Emperor of the Dead and Hundred Flowers Emperor died suddenly, these Heavenly Demons also felt despair as if vast shadows covered the sky and sun, enveloping them entirely.

Never did they imagine that the most formidable among them, Emperor of the Dead and Hundred Flowers Emperor, met an end that was irrevocable.

Those were of the No-Self Realm, a level higher than the Celestial Human Realm; even when facing Celestial Human Realm entities, they could easily annihilate them.

But at this moment, they were unexpectedly obliterated.

Who exactly exterminated this group of Heavenly Demons?

Just a thought is needed to realize—it must be Qin An.

And now, with the No-Self Realm cultivators being slain by Qin An, their group of Celestial Human Realm cultivators is just miserably surviving, unable to stir any waves at all.

This despair, like Mount Tai, weighed heavily upon them.

At this moment, many Heavenly Demons even considered fleeing this place.

However, just at this time, Heavenly Demons began to die one after another; every Heavenly Demon was shrouded deeply by despair before their demise.

The remaining Heavenly Demons well understood why they were dying.

Now without the No-Self Realm cultivators suppressing Qin An, Qin An was like a tiger among sheep, able to hunt them at will.

At this moment, besides despair, there was also deep fear.

This group of Heavenly Demons never expected their prey would instantaneously shift identity and become the hunter.

Many Heavenly Demons had their hearts completely collapse at this moment; they no longer aimed to destroy this world but headed toward the Sea of Hope.

They must quickly pass through that rift, leave this world, and must not linger any longer but return to the Celestial Demon World.

At least once returned, they would be safe.

And they would never again target the world Qin An resides in; they would destroy other worlds to delay their world’s destruction pace.

The distance ahead to the destination was already extremely far, and the group of Heavenly Demons gradually gathered together.

Each person’s expression was incredibly desolate, all silent and saying nothing,

for after experiencing despair, any words seemed so powerless and pale.

Yet among this group of Heavenly Demons, the Plague Emperor let out a sigh of relief.

At this moment, she had already informed Qin An of all the Heavenly Demons’ movements using special methods.

She knew Qin An was about to achieve victory soon, and she no longer had to live a life of being an undercover agent, full of constant fear.

At this moment, the Heavenly Demons’ flying speed was incredibly fast, even beyond what Manifest Saint Realm cultivators could track.

But as they pressed onward, suddenly, an observant Heavenly Demon noticed something unusual.

He stopped abruptly, and the fear in his eyes expanded rapidly.

As he saw it, the other Heavenly Demons saw it too, and they all turned their gaze forward.

There appeared a small black dot in front, and the dot continuously enlarged at a visible speed, reaching them within a matter of breaths.

Upon seeing who approached, their hearts seemed to be doused with icy water, leaving them with a chill throughout.

Qin An appeared, holding Cold Star, with a slight mocking look in his eyes, as if looking at a flock of lambs to be slaughtered.

One of the Heavenly Demons shouted loudly: "Scatter and flee; don’t let him catch us! If we stay together, we’ll be wiped out in one go!"

They decided to spread out now.

But as the words fell, Qin An’s voice slowly transmitted over.

"Scatter? Can you scatter?"

Then, Qin An slowly raised his right hand and gently waved it to the side.

Subsequently, he mobilized the power of the Dragon Vein, allowing the Dragon Vein’s power to envelop the area.

And at the moment the Dragon Vein’s power enveloped the area, it formed a powerful Sealing Power, like a cage, firmly locking everything around.

The Heavenly Demons who were ready to scatter, seeing the current situation, were immediately shocked.

They could not flee.

Their despair at this moment enveloped them like a deep pool of water.

Qin An shook his head slightly while looking at these despairing Heavenly Demons: "When you destroyed other worlds, those worlds were as terrified as you are now. But unfortunately, you cannot destroy our world, so let me send you off on your last journey."

With that said, Qin An stopped holding back; he raised his palm and slowly pressed it forward.

Being a No-Self Realm cultivator, killing a group of Celestial Human Realm cultivators was like slaughtering a herd of unresisting piglets.

As the palm pressed down, the terrifying pressure hit. The Celestial Human Realm Heavenly Demons present couldn’t even resist and were reduced to ashes beneath Qin An’s palm.

At this moment, besides the Plague Emperor, there was not a single survivor.

The Plague Emperor broke out in a cold sweat, feeling that her decision back then was incredibly correct.

If she hadn’t chosen to become an undercover agent, she might have been killed by Qin An just like the other Heavenly Demons.

Now, being able to survive meant immense fortune for her.

Qin An, with his hands crossed behind his back, glanced at the Plague Emperor and slowly said: "Alright, the crisis in this world has been averted. You should immediately go to the capital city of the Daqian Kingdom and see how Emperor Xuanwu arranges for you. Rest assured, having defected and contributed significantly to the world, you won’t face much trouble."

The Plague Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully said to Qin An: "Thank you, Mr. Qin."

Without wasting any words, she turned and left the place, flying towards the direction Qin An pointed out.

After she left, Qin An paused.

He slowly raised his head and looked in a certain direction.

After eliminating this group of Heavenly Demons, he sensed a slight anomaly.

This anomaly was not very obvious, but he could clearly perceive it. It felt like some kind of vague summons was attracting him.

As Qin An’s gaze swept over, he saw that terrifyingly extreme world.

The world seemed to have no will at all, merely looking indifferently at him without any emotion.

Even the slightest hint of emotion was undetectable, staring at him across endless space.

"This feeling, it seems like a mark has been put on me."
