"What’s going on?!"

Xiao looked around in astonishment, completely taken by surprise.

However,

Judging from Yumo’s expression in the distance and the shift in the Bloody Butterflies’ hostility, Xiao could be certain of one thing… something in the north seemed to have attracted Yumo’s attention even more than him.

Is there something over there?

Almost the moment Xiao’s expression turned puzzled, several beams of silver light suddenly rushed from the distance! They pierced through the crimson sky, rapidly enlarging in Xiao’s eyes.

Is that?

"Arrows?!"

Upon seeing what was inside the silver light, Xiao couldn’t help but exclaim in shock. Because he could distinctly feel the destructive energy contained between these two arrows, the overwhelming aura of holy energy… as well as a trace of Shadow Power within them.

The next moment,

Under Xiao’s astonished gaze, two arrows carrying overwhelming might astonishingly pierced through the stars, hitting the swarm of Bloody Butterflies before and behind Xiao.

Boom!!

With a ground-shaking roar, the holy light that expels darkness and evil suddenly burst forth like floodwaters from a dam from the two arrows, expanding rapidly and exploding in the air into a sun of flames with a radius of fifty meters, constructed of silver-white holy fire, mercilessly devouring the surrounding swarm of Bloody Butterflies.

Unlike Xiao and Limo’s previous attacks, this time the attack was effective.

Tens of thousands of Bloody Butterflies were purified by the holy fire, turning to ash.

They did not reassemble and regenerate; they completely disappeared.

How is this possible?!!

Witnessing this scene, Xiao was stunned.

At the same time,

Amidst his shock, the Black Rose Duke also bit his lip with a complex mood, his heart undoubtedly filled with mixed feelings.

Only divine power could break through Lady Yumo’s Bloody Butterflies in this world. And those who can wield divine power, their identity is self-evident.

However,

That person,

Why is she saving me?

While taking the opportunity to widen the distance from the Bloody Butterflies, Xiao thoughtfully turned his gaze towards the north.

And reflected in his dark pupils,

Another silver meteor instantly broke through the clouds, charging towards Yumo’s location with unstoppable momentum! Unlike the two beams of silver light before, this beam contained not energy arrows, but a silver-haired girl with a spirited ponytail, clad in silver armor.

It was Mengxi, who had hurried to the battlefield.

...

As the silver light entered the battlefield, a powerful aura of holy energy suddenly invaded the sensory domain of the Bloody Butterflies.

Unlike magic or battle energy, holy energy and divine power are the natural enemies of abyssal demons.

The appearance of this energy directly caused the swarm of Bloody Butterflies to lose their previous grace, becoming agitated under the mad stimulation of the holy aura, as the Bloody Butterflies began to act wildly.

Almost without waiting for the dark-haired girl’s command, the Bloody Butterflies swarmed toward Mengxi, attempting to engulf her and completely annihilate the holy magic.

Of course, the silver-haired girl wouldn’t just stand by idly.

Facing the swarm of Bloody Butterflies coming from all directions, Mengxi pulled her crimson longbow. This was temporarily given to Mengxi by Youlan, belonging to the epic weapon of the Red Moon Tower - the Red Star Crystal Bow. With the enhancement of this magic longbow, Mengxi’s speed of condensing arrows from holy energy was greatly accelerated, and the power of her attacks soared.

In just the blink of an eye,

Five to six arrows condensed from holy energy were shot at the swarm of Bloody Butterflies, blasting those surrounding her into oblivion.

The Bloody Butterflies that had left the Red Leaf Empire’s army and even the Black Rose family helpless were being massively eliminated under Mengxi’s attacks.

"Oh~?"

Watching this scene, the dark-haired girl in the sky also revealed a trace of surprise.

However, this surprise quickly disappeared without a trace.

When the holy aura invaded the dark-haired girl’s sensory domain, a strong feeling of disgust and a chilling intent to kill uncontrollably spread and grew within the dark-haired girl’s heart. Staring at Mengxi’s face, the dark-haired girl’s crimson eyes involuntarily narrowed slightly.

At this moment,

The face of a silver-haired woman unconsciously emerged deep within the mind of the dark-haired girl.

And when this long-buried memory surged to the forefront of her mind, the dark-haired girl’s expression visibly chilled to the freezing point.

If it weren’t for her,

Would I have been forced to merge with that damned temple?!

Would I have been suppressed?!

And how could I have been stifled, staying in that pitch-black space for hundreds of years?!

...Various negative emotions continuously surged in the heart of the dark-haired girl.

Therefore, upon seeing Mengxi, who resembled that woman by seventy percent, the dark-haired girl somewhat lost control of her emotions.

Fortunately, she is the Abyssal Lord.

Controlling emotions has never been something she needs to consider.

She only needs to eliminate everything that displeases her.

Gazing at the speeding silver meteor, the dark-haired girl’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

Suddenly, the energy between heaven and earth surged violently, and the swarm of bloody butterflies charging toward Mengxi halted their charge. Of course, the Bloody Butterflies did not give up attacking the Girl of Destiny.

However,

Under the control of the dark-haired girl, they no longer chose to blindly charge forward.

The power of Shadow converged, and countless red lights shimmered in the sky above.

With the snap of the dark-haired girl’s fingers, a dense array of Shadow Annihilation beam converged in front of the Bloody Butterflies and, under the girl’s command, exploded in unison!

Boommmmm!!!

For a moment,

The area where Mengxi was located suddenly exploded into several mushroom clouds of fire shooting straight into the sky. The scent of destruction and death momentarily confused heaven and earth, imposing an unprecedented pressure on all things in the world.

The earth trembled, the explosive sound was earth-shattering, and even space was torn apart by this attack, creating rolling temporal turbulence! The turbulence dragged everything in its vicinity into the surging crimson energy, obliterating everything in an instant. The terrifying vibration and the aftermath of the energy even traveled millions of miles, causing people in the distant Holy LomarI Empire of the West to feel a chill.

Compared to the playful attacks of Sky City,

Yumo’s attack might truly be called the ’Divine Annihilation Cannon’.

Although this strike was just a casual flick of the girl’s fingers.

Under the fierce attack of the power of Shadow, the silver meteor was completely covered by firepower and utterly annihilated in the flames. In the vastness of heaven and earth, no trace of holy magic fluctuation remained.

Even Xiao, watching all this from a distance, couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

"Is it over..."

From any perspective, Mengxi seemed to have perished in that attack.

Xiao had held a sliver of hope, wanting to see if the Girl of Destiny had any means to awaken Yumo’s consciousness. But now, it seemed he had thought too much.

However,

Just as Xiao was about to give up, an unbelievable scene unfolded before his eyes!

?!!

Huh?!

"She didn’t die??!!"

At that moment, the silver-haired girl, who was supposed to have been reduced to dust by the Shadow Annihilation, reappeared in Xiao’s line of sight. Not only that, but she also instantaneously flashed behind Lady Yumo under the protection of the silver light?!

...

From the beginning, Mengxi was well aware of the vast gap in strength between herself and Yumo. If she confronted Yumo directly or appeared in front of her, the uncontrollable Yumo would surely annihilate her. Therefore, the girl who rushed towards the swarm of Bloody Butterflies was just a special energy duplicate created by Mengxi with Youlan’s help.

The duplicate, made using Mengxi’s blood and Youlan’s life attribute Shadow Power, naturally had the ability to deceive convincingly.

To be on the safe side, Mengxi also imbued the duplicate with a large amount of holy magic, using the holy light for camouflage.

The purpose of this plan was to attract Yumo’s attention, creating an opportunity for Mengxi’s actions.

Up until this moment, Mengxi’s plan had been going very smoothly.

The duplicate successfully attracted the attention of the swarm of Bloody Butterflies and Yumo, while she herself took the opportunity to flash behind Yumo. Gazing at the familiar yet heartbreaking sight of the dark-haired girl, Mengxi’s eyes inadvertently showed a hint of pain.

’If only I had been stronger, smarter, not knocked out by Yumo, perhaps she wouldn’t have ended up like this.’

However,

Mengxi also knew that regret was futile.

What she could do now was to do her utmost to turn the situation around!

Thinking this, a decisive glint flashed in her pale purple eyes, and the golden magic circle she had prepared in her palm began to spin rapidly!

’Yumo, it’s time to wake up!’

Murmuring in her heart,

Mengxi suddenly raised her hand, aiming the magic circle, which was her trump card, at Yumo’s back.
