Chapter 1194 How to Approach a Suspicious Person (Part 2)

Mother... It seems that the one behind it is indeed the Holy Mother of the Pure White Land. In fact, the one who has maintained the Abyss of Ten Thousand Evils and prevented it from completely collapsing during this period should also be the ruler who was born of an angel.

After recalling his recent cramming on the old earth, Leon changed out of the [Demon Lord] badge, casually rubbed his hands on the old ox's head to wipe away the demon blood from his hands while beating up the demon god, and then explained gently:
“I am not here to harm you. I just don’t want to see the Abyss of Ten Thousand Evils completely destroyed. I plan to move the surviving demons to other planes. I am not a bad person.”

"..."

No... Do you want to listen to what you're saying?
Looking at Leon's earnest expression on the giant bull's head, the angels and demons, who had been partially "converted," not only did not lower their guard, but trembled even more violently.

You can't bear to see this hellish place, the Abyss of Ten Thousand Evils, destroyed, and you want to rescue the surviving demons? Although we were originally demons ourselves, you want to rescue demons to wreak havoc on other planes, and you still have the nerve to say you're not a bad person?

Mother! Help! There's a demon here! An incredibly evil demon!

Hmm... that explanation seems a little strange...

Realizing his words were indeed a bit awkward, but unsure how to explain them properly, Leon hesitated for a moment before simply asking:

"What's the situation with that Pure White Mother? How often does she come here?"

He wanted to know about his mother?!?!?! Could it be that he was planning to...?

"I...we won't tell!"

Looking at Leon, who stood atop the terrifyingly large bull, his body blackened by the smoke from the bull's mouth and who looked anything but good, and the angels and demons who were still hoping the Pure White Mother would save them from their predicament, they could only grit their teeth and glare angrily at the man and the bull:
"If it weren't for our mother's rescue, we would have died long ago! You won't get any information about our mother's whereabouts from us!"

Fine……

Seeing that the demons and angels refused to communicate and clearly had no intention of trusting him, Leon didn't press the issue. Instead, he patted the old ox's horns, signaling that it could continue working.

Regardless of the true nature of that Pure White Mother, since she spared no effort to maintain the Abyss of Ten Thousand Evils and expended great energy to transform these demons into angels, she certainly wouldn't give up halfway.

Even if these angels and demons refuse to tell, as long as I and the old ox keep moving forward and capture... no, I mean, rescue more trapped angels and demons, I believe we will eventually meet the Pure White Mother.

"Moo~"

Having extracted a fragment of Leon's soul, the old ox, though not completely telepathically connected to Leon, was close enough to understand him immediately. He then lowered his head and headed towards the dimensional fragment, intending to take it along with the angels and demons.

However, just as the old ox was trying to throw the dimensional fragments onto its back with its horns amidst the desperate screams of the angels and demons, a gentle holy light suddenly shone from the depths of the starry sky and lightly touched the old ox's horns.

"Please stop!"

A gentle voice, tinged with a hint of anxiety and clear yet imbued with a sense of holiness, rang out. The pure, holy light that had been pressing against the bull's horns slowly solidified, transforming into a voluptuous woman with a white veil covering her face. She gently scolded Leon with a hint of anger:

"They used to be demons, but now they've become good children! You shouldn't hurt them!"

Accompanied by a soft, melodious yet unapproachable shout, the woman's large, pure white wings unfurled behind her, radiating a gentle and serene glow, protecting all the excited angels and demons behind her.

Her long, silvery hair, slightly disheveled from rushing there, flowed like moonlight, lightly draped over her long dress woven from mist and stars, making her appear ethereal and pure, maternal and sacred, inspiring an irresistible urge to bow down before her.

It's Mother! Mother has really come to save us! Seeing the Holy Mother of the Pure White blocking the evil bull's horns and saving them, the excited angels and demons were moved to tears. They looked at the Holy Mother of the Pure White's back with adoration and cast hateful glances at the evil man and bull.

Even if I die at the hands of these two demons, it would be worth it to be saved by my mother who came all the way here!

"..."

What are you all staring at like that... When did I say I was going to kill you?

Seeing the pure white Virgin Mary blocking his way as if facing a formidable enemy, and the angels and demons behind her glaring at him angrily, Leon's lips twitched involuntarily. He then began to explain:

"I'm……"

“You…I know you! When you cruelly devoured Number 7, my will was outside the Valley of Dreams!”

Before Lyon could introduce himself, the veiled, pure white-clad Madonna spoke first, her eyes filled with hostility as she demanded:

"Number 3! What do you want in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Evils? Is eating one of your own kind not enough to satisfy you? Do you also want to devour me and these redeemed children?"

"I do not……"

"Don't even dream about it! I will absolutely not let you do whatever you want!"

Forcefully deflecting the massive bull horns in front of her and shoving the innocent-looking old ox to the side, the Pure White Mother, protecting the angels and demons behind her, roared angrily:
"Whether it's you or Number One, you scum are destined to fail! Your absurd and cruel ideas are destined to lead you to your destruction!"

"You might have some misunderstanding about me..."

Unexpectedly, before he could even explain himself, he was immediately berated. After the indignant woman finished her tirade, Leon said with a mixture of helplessness and speechlessness:

“I am not here to cause you trouble; in fact, my intentions are quite the opposite… Your Majesty, I hope to cooperate with you and the other Roots descendants to fight against Number One.”

"???"

You actually came here to team up with me?!?!
“Your Majesty, including Ivangeline’s Abyss Realm, Number One has destroyed a total of five material planes and has also obtained a small amount of the Essence of Origin. It is no longer something that a single plane can resist.”

Looking at the pure white-clad Mother of Goddess opposite him, who still seemed somewhat doubtful but whose expression had softened slightly, Leon, whose first impression of her was not bad, thought for a moment and continued:

"I can also explain the matter of the Dream Master. I took the initiative to ask him for cooperation, but he seemed to think he had the upper hand, so he directly rejected my invitation and attacked me. I was just acting in self-defense."

"What you call legitimate self-defense is like spending two and a half months, bit by bit, devouring it until there's not a single bit left?"

"Um...maybe it was a bit of excessive self-defense, but I did go there with the intention of cooperating."

Slightly guilty, Leon touched the tip of his nose, then looked at the pure white Madonna opposite him, whose eyes held a hint of hesitation, and spoke earnestly:

"Your Majesty, whether you believe it or not, I have come with the sincere intention of cooperation. I wonder if you are willing to join forces with me to fight against Number One?"
