Chapter 335: Lucia's fate? Demon Hunting.

Cecile suddenly remembered something. "Yasenia, can't your ring hold complex life now that you are in the Unification Realm?"

Yasenia got thoughtful and looked at the fainted Gerd, "That's true. But I think that he is too strong for that. Moreover, what if he can move inside the ring? He could destroy items in it."

Angel said, "Can't you control the ring? You should be able to restrain him."

Yasenia shook her head. "I don't want to risk losing all we have in my ring."

Andrea said something that she knew would get rejected. "How about you try it with us? You know, storing us in your ring and trying to control us."

Yasenia frowned, "No. What if something goes wrong? Isn't Mirrory also like a spatial treasure? She could surely hold Gerd inside her."

Mirrory snorted, "I don't want to."

Yasenia sighed, "Then, we can only carry him around."

Kali asked, "Why not kill him? He isn't that important, right?"

Yasenia looked at Kali and laughed, "To be honest, you are right. However, I want to use him as bait to lure bigger fish. Nevertheless, the cons overweight the pros. He could have a technique to escape, something we can't stop."

Yasenia sighed and said, "Let's move and kill him. I think we've made him suffer enough. To be honest, normally, I would just kill my enemies, but he is basically the root of many of our troubles. I wanted to make him suffer."

Yasenia approached and lowered her head to bit his neck and carry him around. However, when she was about to bite Gerd's neck, Andrea grabbed him and placed him over her shoulder. "Let me carry him. Also, don't blame yourself for Lucia's situation. We could try to rescue her in the future if we can."

Yasenia shook her head calmly, "Don't worry about it. We don't even know about the situation outside the Secret Realm. If things are bad, many besides her could be suffering a worse fate. We will do what we can, but always within our capabilities."

Yasenia commented, "Moreover, maybe big brother Oliver will ask Dr. Ava to do something about it. Although she is very strict, she becomes very scary and overprotective when someone targets Big brother. Not to mention Richard, his father. His strength is extremely high. In my mom's words, he is second to her strength-wise."

Andrea nodded, "Then, we probably shouldn't worry as long as Oliver still has Lucia in his heart."

Angel asked, "What if he doesn't?"

Yasenia stated lightly. "Then, Lucia is out of luck. Only time will tell what happens."

Yasenia looked at the half-dead man and asked Kali. "How much time do you think he can last if we continue to use him as before, Kali?"

Kali thought about it and answered, "With my healing, about an hour more. Although his regeneration is very high, there seems to be some sort of fuel for it. Without my help... About ten minutes. The things you are doing are quite brutal, Yasenia."

Yasenia nodded, "Let's play with him for a while and then move on. I can also take the chance to teach you more painful torture methods until he dies."

Nobody found anything wrong with her words and proceeded to brutalize Gerd and use him as a testing subject for one and a half hours. His dantian was damaged before he woke up, so he couldn't use any technique properly and could only scream in agony for the rest of his short life.

A while later, someone found his body, or what was left of it.

His skin was flayed in most places, his fingers and toes were no more, his privates were missing, and his face was unrecognizable. Not to mention that his internal organs were scattered around him, seemingly in order. It was clear that they had been slowly and meticulously taken out of his body.

The person that found Gerd's body was a demon that smelled blood. He was four meters tall and had a deep yellow skin color. His head was similar to a bull, and his legs ending in hoofs. He was not in the Unification Realm, but he seemed very strong.

He took out some sort of black device and spoke through it in Abyssal tongue. "I've found Gerd's body. We should gather some of our forces around here. The only person that comes to mind that can do this are only enemies of our race."

He communicated for a while more, and soon, almost two hundred demons appeared. Most of them were peak Demon Viscounts, with two Demon Counts in the helm, one male and one female.

The female Demon approached Gerd and kicked his deformed head. "Tsk, useless. It seems that all he had was a pretty face."

One of the younger female demons accompanying her asked with a cute tone, "Big sis, he was killed right after the meeting. Wasn't he strong?"

The male Demon Count snorted. "Hmph, I always told all of you that humans are unreliable. The males are only good to be sex toys, and the females to lick my body clean, hahaha."

One of the friends of the male Demon Count spoke. "Speaking of females, didn't he have a sister?"

The Demon Count rubbed his chin, "Yeah, he was quite a beauty too."

The female Demon Count laughed, "He thought that they would keep her safe. A shame; I think she was already broken even before he left for the secret realm."

"Maybe she is already pregnant! Hahaha."

In an instant, the sky above the group of hundreds of demons changed.

A Sun and Moon appeared in a phantom night sky, surrounded by countless white lights.

Then, a mellow yet imposing voice echoed inside the heads of the Demons. "[Empyrean Galaxy Domain], [Falling Sky]."

The phantom sky literally collapsed on the demons below. Moreover, it was extremely fast.

All the hundreds of white lights in the phantom night sky ballooned into five-meter-wide stars and fell on the demons.

Together with the white stars, the phantom Moon and Sun also dropped on them. As they approached, their size became apparent, being ten times the size of a single star.

The only thing the creatures below such an attack could do was look in powerlessness as their death approached in an extremely fast and imposing manner.

*BOOM!*

The Celestial Bodies collided with the ground and the demons. Then, a catastrophic explosion engulfed hundreds of meters around them, devouring every single creature in the vicinity.

The shockwave of Yasenia's [Falling Sky] decimated everything past the explosion range for almost a whole kilometer, leaving only a razed forest.

The mushroom cloud created by the explosion reached enough height to be quite visible from almost the whole forest.

The sound was like a punch in the chest for all that heard it inside a fifty-kilometer radius. Compared with a modern weapon, Yasenia's attack had reached the strength of a weak atomic bomb.

After everything relaxed, nothing remained—just a crater almost fifty meters wide and fallen and carbonized trees.

They all looked at the indifferent dragoness and gulped. 'She didn't even activate the [Celestial dress]!'

Of course, it wasn't that they couldn't block or survive an attack of such magnitude. Their gulp was because they didn't expect it. Yasenia had told them that they would all charge in and kill them all, but she just used one of her strongest attacks without previous indication and killed all of them.

Or did she?

Unification Realm experts were the threshold for real town-sized destruction cultivators. Entering it and advancing on it would give an exponential increase in strength.

Peak-level Unification Realm cultivators would be able to create attacks hundreds of times stronger than Yasenia's attack. Not to mention, the Dantian Spiritualization realm and above increased this strength to even more absurd degrees.

Therefore, two Demons shot up from the crater and tried to flee. However, they were obviously heavily wounded.

The female Demon Count had six of her ten wings blasted off her body, and her body had obvious missing parts. The previous soft and tender skin was burned beyond recognition, and her eyes were devoid of their previous arrogance and only had fear in them.

The male Demon Count was somewhat better because he was stronger. However, better than the so heavily wounded female Demon counted as nothing. He was missing an arm, part of his leg, and five wings.

Yasenia's attack obliterated the other Demons.

Cecile and Yasenia flapped their wings and shot after them with blurring speed. Before they could even flee for one kilometer, a distance that was very short for people of their level, Yasenia grabbed the back of the male Demon's head and shot down toward the ground.

His eyes widened as he felt the vice-like clamp on the back of his head. The absolute pressure Yasenia's aura instilled in him made his reactions sluggish, and he could only let Yasenia dive toward the ground.

*BANG!*

Like a meteor, they sunk inside the hard forest ground. The Demon Count's skull cracked under the strong pressure, and his eyes exploded as dirt, and other solid things forcefully entered his eye cavities. Not to mention the front of his skull that was fractured beyond recognition.

Yasenia's cold golden reptilian eyes locked on the twitching creature. He was twitching because skull fragments were piercing his brain and creating involuntary convulsions. Then, using her claws, she dug into his stomach from his back and ripped out his dantian.

Without finishing him off, she threw him aside and looked toward the female demon.

Cecile had filled all her body with holes, and half of her body had fallen off because of the freezing temperatures. The Phoenix was stepping on what was left of her, her bow fully drawn with a silver arrow on it.

Yasenia said calmly, "Kill her."

Cecile released the arrow before the Demoness could open her mouth to plead for mercy.

*BOOM!*

The ground around Cecile lifted because of the arrow's strength, and the top part of the Demoness disappeared.

Angel and the others arrived right after. Evelyn whistled, "My love, you've really smashed them into pieces... Hm? The male demon is alive."

Yasenia jumped out of the crater she created when landing with him face first and said, "Yeah. However, I've ripped out his Dantian; he will die shortly after."

Kali commented, "Well, even if he survives, without a Dantian, he can do nothing. Honestly, not killing him is worse than doing it now."

Yasenia nodded and looked around. "Other Demons might come shortly after. Let's hide in the surroundings and see what happens. Let's kill those groups that approach if we see an opportunity."

Before they hid, a group of twenty Demons appeared from the forest.

The twenty demons saw one giant wolf and other exotic creatures, so they immediately knew who they were. One of them cursed, "Fuck, we're done for."

Evelyn laughed, "Sierra, they already know their fate; let's make it quicker!"

Sierra howled as yellow lightning surrounded her body. Then, all of them, including Yasenia, charged toward the twenty Demons.

The subsequent fight was redundant as they were completely obliterated.
