Seeing all the women safe and sound, Qin Chu finally let out a sigh of relief.
On the scene, there was no trace of the God of Death... even Demon King Nage had vanished without a trace.
It was unclear whether he escaped before the chaos erupted or perished in the recent explosion.
Qin Chu wasn't concerned, but he could sense that beneath the vast desert, some force was calling to him.
Following his instincts, Qin Chu walked towards it step by step. After a while, he suddenly stopped, and the yellow sand before him parted on its own, revealing a dark, a crimson, and a somber diamond-shaped object simultaneously.
Qin Chu knew these were the three Authorities commanded by the God of Blood, Darkness, and Death.
These three Authorities seemed to be attracted by some mysterious force, detaching from the ground and drifting leisurely into Qin Chu's body.
The Blood Authority, symbolizing fury and slaughter, the Dark Authority, symbolizing darkness, and the Death Authority, symbolizing war.
Upon entering his body, the Blood Authority immediately merged with the Fury Power, evolving into the Authority of Fury.
The Dark and Death Authorities, however, hovered outside the main body.
The Authorities separating like this meant that this powerful evil god had finally perished.
The confrontation took less time than with the Lord of Pleasure, but it was even more perilous. If the God of Blood, Darkness, and Death had been a bit smarter, the battlefield could have taken a different turn.
But, no matter what, this time they won.
They achieved victory more cleanly and decisively than the last time.
Whether it was Qin Chu or the other girls, smiles involuntarily appeared on their faces.
In the previous confrontation with the Lord of Pleasure, they relied on their emotions and wills, but now, against those in the Void, they felt confident for the first time.
Gods were no longer terrifying!
Due to the impact on his body and soul, Qin Chu's mind was throbbing with pain; it was an unpleasant sensation... Qin Chu knew that beneath the yellow sand lay a hidden remnant of the evil god.
Qin Chu didn't rest, nor did he search for and absorb the evil god's remnants.
He just breathed heavily and flew towards the distance with his weary body.
During the previous battle, Asina clearly participated.
But, it was definitely not a force Asina could wield on her own.
A strong heart beat vigorously, and with each beat, Qin Chu's strength recovered a little, his speed getting faster as he pursued the direction sensed in his heart.
When Qin Chu finally saw the four women whose powers were exhausted, he completely relaxed.
A slight smile emerged on his face, and at that moment, Qin Chu felt certain things in his heart finally lay to rest.
"Are you all okay?"
Asina, Catherine, Silf, and Atreus all simultaneously shook their heads with a smile: "We're fine."
No need for many words, a glance, a smile was enough.
"Asina, how did you have such great power?" Qin Chu asked.
During the battle, Asina had only acted once, but that one move was crucial. If it weren't for Asina using the power of plague to corrode the God of Death's defense system, their attacks wouldn't have truly harmed the evil god.
"The Goddess of Destiny helped me a bit; I bore the power of four people alone." Asina explained simply, deliberately hiding the fact that her lifespan had shortened, not wanting Qin Chu to worry.
Just twenty years of life, it's no big deal.
As long as Qin Chu is safe and sound.
Casually chatting while walking, Qin Chu helped each of the four women up from the ground. After assisting them in recovering some strength, they returned to the old site of the Demon King Palace. Seeing the vast and desolate desert, the girls also turned pale, imagining the ferocity of the previous battle just from the scene before them.
"Atreus, I'm sorry your father has disappeared, and I can't determine if he's dead or if he escaped." Qin Chu felt deeply apologetic for this.
After all, Atreus had always sought revenge.
Creating such an opportunity wasn't difficult for Qin Chu... he didn't expect Demon King Nage to disappear.
In response to Qin Chu's apology, Atreus only gave a gentle smile. Although she had a somewhat rebellious, flamboyant nature as a demon woman, in front of Qin Chu, she couldn't help but show a softness never seen before: "It doesn't matter; these things are no longer important."
In Atreus's heart, her master's safety was paramount.
For this goal, she could forsake everything.
Even knowing her thoughts were forcibly changed, Atreus didn't dislike it, even relishing it.
After spending several days, they found and absorbed the evil god's head.
At this moment, Qin Chu possessed the Authority of Fury, the Gluttony Authority, the Desire Sin Authority, the Authority of Sloth, and the jealous authority from the Seven Deadly Sins, plus the greed power.
Atreus owned the Authority of Pride.
Meanwhile, the strongest evil god's remnants, including the head, torso, heart, one arm, and one leg, were nearly complete.
After finishing up everything, Qin Chu finally departed. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on noᴠelfire.net
Days after Qin Chu left, the tranquil desert suddenly began to tremble.
With a thud, a figure shot out from the desert.
Amidst the drifting sand, a resolute face became faintly visible... Demon King Nage.
He hadn't died.
He was a cunning existence, having buried himself in the deepest part of the Grand Canyon, carved by the evil god, just before the explosion.
Seeing the growing number of powerful demigods around Qin Chu, Nage already sensed danger.
If it were just Qin Chu and the Dark Witch, he barely had the qualifications to negotiate. But after witnessing the true power on Qin Chu's side, he understood that after killing the evil god, Qin Chu's next target would be him.
After all, if their roles were reversed, he would make the same decision.
The honor of a Demon King was not worth more than survival!
Using the yellow sand to conceal his body, suppressing all movements to the minimum, he barely survived this ordeal.
Even after Qin Chu left, Nage didn't immediately emerge, fearing Qin Chu might come back to finish the job. After waiting for over a week and ensuring the coast was clear, Nage finally appeared.
Looking at the completely obliterated Demon King City, Nage's expression was as dark as could be.
He wasn't heartbroken over the destruction of Demon King City but for the treasure that was rightfully his, which Qin Chu had stolen—a monstrous head, damn! Bastard, greedy wretch.
Nage cursed repeatedly, but he was powerless to change what had happened.
Simultaneously, the container manufacturing plan also failed.
When the evil god swung the Battle Axe, Luo Meng perished instantly. Although the axe light didn't strike Luo Meng directly, it was close enough that the shockwave took his life, poor Luo Meng, who planned to become a Demon King and rule the human world, died without understanding his fate.
The thought of all his efforts resulting in nothing filled Nage's heart with twisted pain.
Moreover, Demon King Nage had to face the fact that this world was becoming increasingly uninhabitable.
There were evil gods in the sky and Qin Chu on the ground; how can anyone survive?
The demon army was almost entirely decimated.
With Qin Chu's character, he would definitely not let Nage off.
"Jie Luo... I have an idea," Nage's throat emitted a low, hoarse voice.
"We might have to give it all we've got."
"We don't have much time left, so I plan to risk it and force my way to Earth!"
