Chapter 104 (Part 1) The Abyss (Part 2 Combined)
After hanging up the video call in Guannan District, Ning Zixuan lay comfortably on the bed, like a lazy white cat, slowly raising her eyelids to look at the white clouds outside the window, her thoughts gradually drifting into the distance.
From childhood to adulthood, Bai Yuze always gave him a completely different feeling; he was unconventional and eccentric.
While others were playing with urine and mud, he was reading a book.
While others were poking at birds' nests, he was reading a book.
While others were stealing money to go to internet cafes, he was still reading a book.
Which child could resist such temptations? But Bai Yuze resisted, so Ning Zixuan was certain from a young age that he was definitely not an ordinary child.
The golden carp is not meant to stay in the pond; it will transform into a dragon when it encounters wind and rain.
Okay, actually there aren't that many fancy features.
The main reason is still the time they met when they were children. There was a five-cent popsicle, and the other party generously shared one with her.
After that, she became obsessed with him.
He would always share food with her if there was any.
Unlike other little kids, who were hesitant and reluctant to hand out ginseng sticks one by one for a five-cent pack.
Stingy, lacking in vision...
Bai Yuze is different.
He always gives them out in whole packages.
So she often followed the other person and got something to eat.
They were deskmates in elementary school;
They were deskmates in middle school;
They remained deskmates in high school.
Someone used their money, but she didn't say it.
From childhood to adulthood, she would always try to claim ownership of Bai Yuzhe, so much so that Bai Yuzhe never had any contact with any woman other than Bai Youqing and Li Xuanxue.
Until a woman suddenly appeared beside Bai Yuzhe, even if she was fake.
This is also a very bad sign.
In Ning Zixuan's opinion,
This is the prelude to Bai Yuze leaving him.
She never imagined that she would fail one day.
"but....
Ning Zixuan's ruby-like eyes slowly returned from the window to the black gemstone ring on her slender index finger, where she gently stroked it.
Inside the room, her body began to inexplicably contort, becoming eerie and terrifying. Her possessive eyes were now filled with a crimson hue, a mixture of possessiveness and extreme madness, and she murmured softly:
"Bai Yuze, you can only be mine..."
At the Abyss Headquarters, the Demoness Iris, dressed in a long black lace dress and wearing a black veil, walked unhurriedly through the lush jungle. Countless ferocious and terrifying abyssal monsters were hidden in the bushes along the way, but none of them dared to reveal themselves.
Closely following behind her was a sickly white-haired girl dressed in a gothic dress.
"Princess Iris, why don't we just fly there? I'm exhausted."
After walking for an hour or two, all I could see was an endless wasteland, continuous mountain ranges, lush green forests, and deep, dark lakes.
Behind the Demon Princess Iris, the gothic girl, Chal, pulled her head back and couldn't help but vent her frustrations.
"If that girl Huan Die hadn't caused trouble, it wouldn't matter if we flew over there. But for now, let's let Du Luo vent her anger first."
Iris smiled and patted the gothic girl's head, but the girl slapped her hand away in annoyance.
"Don't touch my head, it will stunt my growth."
"So unlovable, I can't even pat your head."
Iris withdrew her fair hand and sighed softly, "I really don't know how that good-for-nothing Binghe managed to offend Huandie."
"There's no need to guess, it must be Binghe's lustful thoughts acting up again. When Princess Huandie first came over, his eyes were fixed on her the whole time."
"If it weren't for Lady Doro's sake, Princess Iris, you would have scattered his ashes long ago." The gothic girl pouted.
Thinking of Princess Huan Die,
She couldn't help but lick her lips.
During the last Abyss Trial, in the punishment of Princess Phantom Butterfly for her wrongdoings, she took advantage of the chaos to drink a little bit of blood.
The exquisite taste of that delicacy instantly made her feel like she had reached the climax of a vampire's life. Even a year later, she still savored the memory.
Seeing the white-haired girl beside her lost in a daze, Iris's feet stirred with air currents, and with a bang, she kicked out, sending the gothic girl flying and smashing a boulder to pieces.
"You're still thinking about other demon princesses in front of me? You're a traitor, aren't you?"
"I know, I know, I know you're a siscon. Seriously, now you won't even let me think about you anymore, that's too much." The gothic girl coughed a few times, climbed out of the pile of rubble, and rolled her eyes in annoyance.
Iris ignored the other party.
He took her for another stroll around the area before finally climbing to a castle atop the mountain.
The castle doesn't look particularly magnificent; it's just a spacious complex of buildings, mostly three or four stories high, with a lot of low-rise buildings standing side by side. It looks more like a small town than a castle, and there's also a church with a cross-shaped spire inside the castle.
The walls are covered with ivy year-round and have layers of small windows, but most of the corners have holes, making it look like a toy castle made of building blocks that a child has casually piled up.
The closer Iris got to the castle's conference room-chapel, the more disgusted she became. Why would she choose to occupy this awful place, a dilapidated castle, as her headquarters when she had perfectly good modern buildings? I really don't know what that woman, Demoness Duro, was thinking.
A stubborn old man clinging to feudal superstitions, outdated, and lacking ambition.
Upon entering the castle, two rows of people stood guard, dressed in openwork nun's uniforms. Chesia was originally a member of the familiar race of Yugiri, but she was forced by Tokuro to serve as her gatekeeper.
A red carpet stretched from the entrance to the innermost part of the castle, with rows of wooden chairs on both sides and bright oil lamps hanging on the castle walls.
At the very front is a statue of a graceful goddess, but her head has been cut off by someone, the cut being clean and neat.
Kneeling beneath the statue was a solemn and sacred woman. Dressed in a pure white nun's habit, her face was as gentle and beautiful as the rising moon. Her hands were fair and slender, gently clasped together in front of her chest, as if entrusting endless compassion and care in prayer.
Bathed in light, the woman's figure appeared so pure and beautiful, like an angel descended from heaven to earth, bringing people endless warmth and hope.
If word got out...
Who would believe that this dignified and holy nun is the leader of the Abyss Demoness?
Upon arriving at the church, Demoness Iris was in no hurry, lowering her head to play with her slender, long fingers.
A few minutes later, the woman below the altar slowly raised her head, and a solemn yet indifferent voice came out: "Do you know that your allowing Huan Die to do what she is doing in Ye Qiu City has seriously hindered the Lord's descent?"
Upon hearing the other party's words, Iris slowly raised her dark green eyes and retorted without any politeness, "You can't just say things like that. I've already completed the mission for Phantom Butterfly."
Suddenly, a small black cage appeared in Iris's hand, inside which were several magical elves.
The dazzling light that once shone on them has faded considerably.
Their tiny, thin wings were slightly damaged. Their little faces bore red marks, as if they had suffered some inhuman torture.
After taking out the small black cage, Iris's words were full of aggression, showing no respect whatsoever for Toro, the leader of the Four Demon Princesses.
"But you, you've entrusted your task to two family members, while you waste your time praying here. How dare you say such a thing?"
"Hmph, you don't understand living things. You can't talk about ice with a summer insect. We have nothing to talk about."
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"
Yingluo crossed her arms, and pure white magic lifted the cage in Iris's hands, placing it above a black magic circle. The previously listless magical elf instantly seemed to be burned.
They began to struggle desperately, and after a few seconds, the magical sprites lost all their luster, fell to the ground, and turned into ashes.
The radiant light that drifted out was directed into a black sphere within the goddess statue.
"Hey, what are your plans for dealing with Phantom Butterfly next?"
After dealing with the magical spirit, Dulu fell into prayer again. Iris didn't leave in a hurry either, but stood by and began to ask about the other's plans.
Huan Die killed one of Ying Luo's two Abyss Demon Generals' followers. This was not just as simple as killing a calamity beast. It was more like Huan Die slapping Du Luo hard across the face.
Don't be fooled by Yingluo's current calm, pure, and holy appearance as a kind nun. She might be thinking about all sorts of horrific tortures involving dismemberment and bloodshed. She's a notorious pervert who finds pleasure in torturing magical girls.
Illusion Butterfly should have a deep understanding of this, but no matter what, she just doesn't learn her lesson. If Iris hadn't known Illusion's character well, she would have thought that her little sister just had that kind of taste and was a hidden masochist with strange and unusual tastes.
Before you ask this foolish question, you can first quiet down and listen to the Lord's will.
Dulu's inexplicable remark caused Iris, who was playing with her fingers, to suddenly freeze in surprise.
The next moment, he quickly and respectfully lowered his head, not daring to move an inch.
The group of Chesias standing beside her all prostrated themselves on the ground, seemingly unable to withstand the pressure for a moment.
Her curvaceous figure began to twist and twitch, and the flesh on her body swelled up like a balloon. When it reached its limit, it burst open with a bang, splattering blood and limbs.
Some of the blood splattered onto Sister Dulu, who was kneeling on the ground, but instead of showing fear, her face remained expressionless.
Instead, she revealed a pure smile, the blood and her slender figure exuding a strange and eerie beauty.
In the dark abyss,
A terrifying, ethereal monster quietly emerged.
Its body was twisted, as if pieced together from countless broken shadows, without a fixed form. Sometimes it resembled a writhing black mist, and sometimes it transformed into a giant beast covered in sharp claws.
Its skin appears to be composed of an unknown dark substance, smooth and cold, exuding a chilling aura.
With bloodstains on her face, Du Luo respectfully raised her eyes, her voice filled with reverence, "Lord, what do you think I should do with this servant who has betrayed you?"
From the dark mist, hoarse, strange words echoed, but to the two witches in the church, they clearly formed a single sentence.
"The Lord is kind, merciful, and loving. He is tolerant of his own children. Every child makes mistakes. We must learn to understand her and correct her... Go and bring her back. I will guide her on the right path."
"Lord, on behalf of Huan Die, I thank you for your mercy..."
The black mist appeared only briefly, for a few seconds.
Iris, who was usually absent-minded, appeared very serious. She hadn't expected that Dulu would actually summon the Lord of the Abyss.
Even when she was only in her soul form, during the previous Black Tide invasions, Du Luo liked to pray every day, but nothing came of it.
She stopped caring about him altogether.
But now, the other party has done something drastic right in front of her, trying to put her in her place.
Before this terrifying, ethereal monster, she was like an ant on the ground; the monster merely appeared within a hundred meters of the church.
Apart from her and Yingluo, all the other abyssal creatures swelled and burst, making all life seem so small and fragile. The fear and despair it brought were enough to plunge people into endless darkness.
There was a few minutes of silence in the church.
"Oh, Iris-sister, you're back!"
A pink-haired, twin-tailed little girl dressed in a sailor uniform, with jet-black stockings clinging to her slender legs, hopped in. A single, rounded ahoge (a cowlick) perched on her head. Her gaze lingered curiously beside Iris. "Where's that brat, Phantom Butterfly?"
"I don't want to come back; I'm still causing trouble in Yeqiu City."
Iris regained her usual expression, lovingly stroking Yugiri's cheek, and sighed deeply, seemingly filled with helplessness towards the child who would not return home.
"Oh, I heard that Flame Demon Binghe was killed by Sister Illusion Butterfly. Sister Iris, do you know what happened?"
"I'm not entirely sure why Demoness Illusion Butterfly suddenly went mad."
"I just saw the news. It seems that a monster attacked Guannan District of Yeqiu City. Do you think it could be related to this?"
Demoness Yugiri placed her phone in front of Iris, which displayed today's calamity reports, detailing the number of casualties in the affected areas.
"It shouldn't be that many humans have died," Iris mused upon seeing the number of casualties.
"You don't know Huan Die? She's extremely protective of her own. Could it be that one of these dead people is one of her students?"
Xiwu knew Huandie very well. Back in the Abyss, if she dared to bully the other party's students, Huandie would beat her up without a sound.
They showed absolutely no regard for the close sisterly bond between them.
"Maybe. Anyway, I've got nothing better to do, so I'll investigate when the time comes."
Demoness Iris rested her chin on her hand, pondering for a moment. She felt this matter had nothing to do with the Abyss; when she returned, she had repeatedly instructed her not to stir up trouble. Even if Bing He was incredibly audacious...
They dared not disregard her words, wondering if it was some kind of wicked little rat from the witch's den doing something bad, using the name of their abyss.
They were made to take the blame, and they can't even explain to humans that they didn't do it.
Seeing that Iris was thinking, he didn't continue talking to her about the Illusion Butterfly.
Feeling a bit bored, Xiwu trotted over to Yingluo again, grabbed her arm as she prayed, and trembled, "Sister Duluo, I heard Master's order just now. Let me go and bring Huandie back!"
The latter felt two heavy pressures pressing down on her arms.
He slowly opened his eyes, revealing pale golden pupils, and looked at the cute little girl in front of him.
Sending Iris there might be some resistance from the other side, but at least she'll come back after completing her mission.
But if we send Yugiri over...
In human terms, it's like throwing a meat bun to a dog—it's gone forever.
Of the four Abyss Demonesses, besides herself, one is unruly, one is rebellious in her youth, and one is still childlike at heart.
At that moment, she felt an immense amount of pressure...
Demoness Atsuro's gaze slowly shifted from the iris by the door to Yuugiri's face, and she patted her head.
He nodded helplessly. "Okay, have fun, remember to come back."
"Sister Yingluo!" Xiwu bit her lip slightly, and said unconvinced, "Don't you also believe that I can bring back that brat Huandie?"
"I believe you," Dulu said expressionlessly.
"No, you don't believe it at all. If you did, you would usually show an encouraging smile."
After hearing this, Du Luo forced a smile onto her usually expressionless face. "I believe you."
"Your smile..." Before Yugiri could finish speaking, Tokuro waved her hand, and a dazzling golden portal appeared directly in front of her.
With her other hand, she grabbed Xiwu's fair and smooth neck and threw her in like trash.
"What about you? Are you still going to Yeqiu City?"
Dulu turned her head and looked at Iris standing at the door. This was the first time she had asked, and it seemed that she had indeed been broken by Xiwu and was thinking of getting rid of all the unreliable teammates from her hometown.
"No need, I'm going to see the Villainess Witch."
Iris chuckled and shook her head. The only one who could break a loli's defenses was Yuugiri.
"Then don't bother me." Dulu turned her head again and began to pray.
"Pfft~ It's not like anyone likes being around you."
Hearing the other party's cold words, Iris also looked disgusted. She turned around with her curvaceous body and left the church without any hesitation.
After the Demon Princess Iris left,
The church fell silent once more.
A gentle breeze rustled through the air.
Directly in front of the headless goddess statue, a golden magic circle suddenly began to rotate, and a brilliant white light slowly appeared.
The nun, who was chanting with her head bowed, slowly raised her eyes, a smile playing on her lips.
She looked at the pale blue liquid that had condensed in the hazy mist. She reached out a finger and gently touched the slime-like liquid, injecting concentrated abyssal nitrogen into its shattered crystal core.
Amidst the hazy black mist, the slime completely transformed into the shape of a pale blue girl.
"Awaken, my servant!"
The girl slowly opened her eyes, her pale blue eyes looking at the dilapidated church with a look of confusion in them.
where is this?
Wasn't she already killed?
Not only were her belongings stolen, but the other party also seemed to know that she had the ability to regenerate as a slime, so they simply threw her body into the furnace and evaporated it.
Even if she were a god descended from heaven, she wouldn't be saved now.
