Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 179 - 180: Dealing with the Aftermath

Like many Marquis family servants who didn’t have time to evacuate, Pelochi hid with them in the Marquis family’s underground shelter to avoid the Divine Punishment Sect members outside, especially the powerful Divine Punishment Sect Leader. He desperately sought help from the outside world. Although the shelter was protected by a barrier, the horrifying power eruption on the surface above had still penetrated it, giving everyone unprecedented fear.

Most of the servants with insufficient strength were directly shocked into unconsciousness and fell to the ground. Compared to these servants, Pelochi was a royal attendant with powerful strength at the sixth-tier middle rank. Combined with the magical tools given by the Crown Prince, he managed to remain conscious.

However,

Don’t ask why a powerful person like Pelochi didn’t go out and fight the Divine Punishment Sect members from the beginning.

The answer was,

He had to report crucial information to the royal family, and he couldn’t just die on the battlefield like that!

Moreover,

’Why should i die to protect the barbarians of the North?’

Although he did not faint, the terrifying aura from the outside still made Pelochi shiver. However, just a moment ago, Pelochi was surprised to find that the external aura had calmed down. The terrifying energy and killing intent that filled it had disappeared...

So, Pelochi slowly crawled out of the shelter, trying to get an understanding of the situation outside!

...

Upon reaching the surface, Pelochi observed his surroundings for a moment and quickly focused his attention on the black-haired girl not far away! The girl’s astonishing beauty left Pelochi dumbfounded for a few seconds.

However, what shocked and astonished Pelochi the most were the blood-colored butterflies around the girl and the faint aura of the power of shadow...

’she?!...’

’Is she an Abyssal Demon?! A humanoid Abyssal Demon?!’

’This,’

’My goodness?!’

’Moreover, is she, is she looking after the Girl of Destiny?!’

’Isn’t this a mistake!’

The Crown Prince had once told him that the aura of the Girl of Destiny and the Boy of Destiny was the most detested by Abyssal Demons. Once they saw them, the Abyssal Demons would not hesitate to launch an attack on them and even become more ferocious and bloodthirsty.

However, now? This kind of Abyssal Demon is actually looking after the Girl of Destiny?! Did the Crown Prince make a mistake? Or is he blind?

Besides, why would such a Demon King existence appear here? And why does there seem to be another powerful Abyssal Demon present in the air?...

Countless questions rushed into Pelochi’s mind,

However, he didn’t have time to figure out these problems.

What he wanted to do now was to send the information about this humanoid Abyssal Demon to the Crown Prince. So, Pelochi took out the ’smart device’ given by the Crown Prince from his spatial ring, activated the ’camera’ function, and pointed it at the black-haired girl!

’Click~’

Recorded,

’Done, now what’s next...’

Pelochi hid behind the ruins of the building and began to operate the ’smart device’ according to the Crown Prince’s instructions.

At that moment,

"Who?!"

Pelochi’s brow furrowed as a powerful aura had unknowingly entered his perception. The next moment, a cute but ice-cold voice suddenly entered his ears,

"You’ve come to a place you shouldn’t have and seen something you shouldn’t have~"

Hearing this, Pelochi’s body shuddered, gripping the ’smart device’ tightly and hurriedly looking to his left,

"You?! Who are you?!"

At this moment,

A petite figure dressed in a black robe and wearing black rose emblem armor had, unknowingly, arrived beside Pelochi.

The girl had enchanting pink-white gradient hair, with a few strands hanging down her cheeks, adding to her gentleness. Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her orange-yellow eyes clear and bright like stars. With a somewhat soft and round face, she was incredibly lovable.

There was no doubt that the girl was very cute and charming,

"You, are you from the Black Rose family? The one called Qiu mingtong?"

Seeing that the visitor was human, Pelochi couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However,

Not long after relaxing, the royal attendant’s brow furrowed once more, watching the pink-haired girl with extremely vigilant eyes. This was because he found that her expression was so cold that it sent chills down his spine. Also, why was she holding a weapon, and in that position...

"You, what are you trying to do?!"

Feeling something was wrong, Pelochi slowly mobilized his aura within his body and asked cautiously, trying to buy some time and prepare for a quick escape,

"I am an envoy of the Snow Night Empire’s royal family, I advise you not to... Huh?!!"

However,

Before Pelochi could finish his sentence, Qiu mingtong’s hammer suddenly and without warning smashed toward him! The speed was so fast that he had no room to retreat!

"Hey! Wait..."

"Boom!!"

With a loud bang, the ground trembled violently, and light pink aura suddenly erupted. In an instant, flesh and blood flew, and a layer of crimson shroud covered the ruins. Pelochi was smashed into a pulp by Qiu mingtong’s hammer, not even leaving a human shape behind...

-"When facing an enemy, don’t chatter, just take action. Talking too much gives others an opportunity,"-

Qiu mingtong highly agreed with the words once told to her by the Duke.

After retrieving her hammer, Qiu mingtong coldly glanced at the pool of flesh on the ground,

’Seeing something you shouldn’t and still want to live?’

However,

Just as she had finished muttering in her heart, Qiu mingtong’s brow furrowed slightly,

’This, what is this?’

Slowly squatting down, she picked up the shattered black square object next to Pelochi’s hand. Qiu mingtong’s heart was filled with a trace of doubt...

--

Not far away,

After temporarily letting Wilt go, Yumo returned to the ground. There was no need for her to take any further action against Wilt. Having consumed so many Blood Soul Pills, his blood had been completely tainted by the power of the Shadow. Although he gained immense power in the short term, he was essentially unable to escape the fate of death.

Miss Yumo didn’t need to do anything herself either,

It was better to mark him and see where the headquarters of the Divine Punishment Sect was located. Maybe she could even find out who the so-called ’Child of Demon lord’ really was...

Of course,

All this would have to wait for the feedback from the tracking magic stone.

Now,

Let’s check on this girl first, shall we?

Yumo, who had hurriedly returned to Mengxi’s side, lifted her hand without saying a word and dispersed the Shadow power that enveloped Mengxi. Seeing that Mengxi had not been affected by Wilt’s attack, Yumo couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Yumo soon revealed a pained expression once again,

After a brief examination, she found that the number of wounds on Mengxi’s body was infuriatingly high...

There were those caused by Wilt, those caused by Yuan’er, and those caused by an overload of divine power...

The blood-soaked delicate body was shocking to behold,

Although Yumo knew very well that everything Mengxi had experienced was an essential part of growing stronger, without fighting powerful enemies and going through life-and-death trials, it was difficult to become a true hero or heroine. However, after learning about Mengxi’s physical condition, Yumo still couldn’t bear it,

Her crimson eyes were filled with conflicted emotions.

Such a cute, kind, and beautiful girl seemed like she should be cherished at home, not sent to the battlefield and turned into such a bloodied mess...

’Sigh...’

Yumo couldn’t help but sigh,

Despite her reluctance, she knew very well,

All of this wouldn’t stop until she was eliminated...

At this moment, a petite pink figure, wrapped in a burst of aura, jumped directly from the nearby ruins to Yumo’s side. The newcomer was none other than Miss Qiu mingtong of the Black Rose family.

"Have you dealt with it?"

Yumo asked slowly,

"Yes, lady Yumo, there are no other witnesses."

Qiu mingtong knelt down and respectfully replied,

At this, Yumo nodded in satisfaction,

"Good, after all, I don’t want too many people to know about my appearance..."

Saying that Yumo thoughtfully looked at the members of the Divine Punishment Sect who had been subdued by the ’Sleeping Powder’ and touched her face,

Really,

How did her veil get blown away...

"Deal with these people. Also, you can stop acting now. Take the matter seriously and deal with the remaining members of the Divine Punishment Sect in the city. It’s time for this turmoil to end."

"Understood, lady Yumo."

After respectfully replying,

Qiu mingtong immediately shot a flare into the sky,

Seeing the flashing light in the sky, the ’smiling and playful’ members of the Black Rose family in Wind City instantly put away their smiles, revealing serious expressions filled with murderous intent...
