With half a game of chess, I vanquish all demons!

The lower realm of barren rocks.

Call ~

In the distance, the collapsed stone mountain is burning fiercely.

Zhao Yao stood on the rocky ground, raised his hand to touch his eyes, his heart pounding wildly.

The power of the thunder and fire witnessed by the five fires is too strong!

Since his next opponent was Princess Yunchi, although he had made up his mind, he wasn't entirely confident. Now, with this attack, he finally felt more assured.

The only regrettable thing is that this was the only attack he could deliver.

Because of this overwhelmingly powerful strike, all the firepower of the demonic blood within him was instantly drained!

"God has been very kind to me. I should be content. People should be content."

Zhao Yao gazed at the burning stone mountain, trying to comfort himself.

Then, he raised his hand and looked at the jade ring on his hand.

This thing suffered some damage in the water.

Fortunately, the assassin's gun had been stored in the jade ring beforehand, and the ring hadn't been submerged in the ascension water for too long, so the damage wasn't too severe.

The other thing is in a terrible state.

Call ~

With a thought, the Illusionary Void Belt appeared in his hands.

In order to hold back the bronze warrior Jin Xing, the belt was soaked in the ascension water for a considerable period of time, and since it was constantly in use, it appeared to be unharmed.

Now that the external Rubik's Cube has been put back into the belt, it is completely broken and can no longer release the black Rubik's Cube.

By sacrificing the Illusionary Void Belt, the Bronze Warrior Jin Xing was forcibly trapped in the Ascending Water, greatly depleting his life force. This played a decisive role in killing Jin Xing, so it wasn't a bad deal.

Zhao Yao drew upon divine power, and with its incredible strength, began to repair the jade ring.

Forget about the Illusionary Belt.

This thing is completely broken. Even if we used all the remaining divine power of the mountain demon tribe, it might not be enough to repair it. It would be a completely unprofitable endeavor.

With the jade ring repaired, Zhao Yao unleashed his assassin's gun once more.

He held the gun in his hand, turning it over and over, examining it closely.

The demigod warrior unleashed his power, already over ten meters tall... This gun is still quite effective for a normal human, but for him now, it's not so convenient in combat.

He pondered for a moment, then took out the dragon-patterned earring that Yun Chi had left on his ear from the jade ring.

Then, he drew upon divine power to bring the Death Soldier Spear and the Dragon-Climbing Earring together. Under the incredible impetus of the divine power of faith, the spear gradually shrank and slowly merged with the Dragon-Climbing Earring.

He held the earrings in front of his eyes, looked at their new appearance, and smiled, feeling very satisfied.

You say you're climbing the dragon's path and attaching yourself to the phoenix, I say I'm piercing the dragon with my spear!

Zhao Yao hung the new earring on one ear, flapped the iron feather wings on the other side of his back, and with a thought, reverted to his demonic form and returned to human appearance.

He entered his inner vision and examined the shattered jade chessboard.

There are now four unsealed jade chess pieces on the chessboard.

The fourth jade chess piece was now empty, all the accumulated primordial energy having nourished the demon blood.

The primordial energy from the third jade chess piece was completely absorbed into his body, propelling him to the demigod level, and he was also completely empty.

In the second jade chess piece, some magic was consumed in order to disguise the father and younger brother. Fortunately, the magic figure did not collapse due to this consumption, so the molded Zhao Er did not dissipate.

There's not much to say about the first jade chess piece; the ten layers of primordial energy are full.

He killed the two strongmen, Silver Deer and Golden Spirit, but failed to obtain a single pill. It seemed that the two strongmen had used up all their pills in their previous battle with Yan Rouyun.

If it weren't for the two Heavenly Dog Demon Cores as a supplement, it would have truly been two battles where he lost more and more as the fight went on.

After checking his own strength, Zhao Yao released Zhao Yi and gave him a few things.

Zhao Yi stood beside him, and a flash of watery void engulfed him, disappearing from the spot.

wow~

He manipulated Zhao Yi's body and returned to the Mountain Demon Village of the Desolate Rock Mountain. He climbed out of the Ascension Pool and casually filled a pot with Ascension Water using the water pouch on his body.

He slung the water bag around his waist, looked up at the sky, and felt that it was almost midnight.

That was the time when Yun Chi pulled him into a dream to steal his luck!

Zhao Yao seized the time and ran quickly down the mountain path, swiftly descending the barren rock mountain.

He stood at the foot of the desolate rocky mountain, scanned his surroundings, and after a quick assessment of the direction, bent his knees and leaped into the air towards Zhaoqian Village.

bang~

The ground cracked open, and he leaped high into the air in that direction.

bang~

His body slammed into the ground, creating a large crater. He then bent his legs slightly in the crater, pushed off suddenly, and jumped out again.

bang~

bang~

bang~

In the wilderness, one large pit after another appeared.

Using the strength of a jade soldier comparable to that of a demigod, he made continuous long-distance leaps across the desolate land, rushing frantically towards Zhaoqian Village.

It didn't take him long to get back to Zhaoqian Village.

Zhao Yao didn't know if the Dream-Connecting Technique had a distance limit, but he knew that it was possible to be successfully connected to a dream in Zhaoqian Village.

He did this in order to allow the cloud dragon to guide his dreams normally.

squeak~

Back in his home, where he was all alone, Zhao Yao pushed open the courtyard gate and went inside.

Yin Bingtie and Jin Feng, who went to pursue Zhou Quan and the two leaders of Black Wind Stronghold, have not returned yet, whether they failed to kill them or what.

But it's fine, it's fine if they don't come back.

Zhao Yao had no intention of implicating others, and naturally did not want to have any conflict with Yin Bingtie and Jin Feng.

He only wanted to kill Jin Xing and Yin Lu, the two murderers who carried out the killings themselves, and then kill Yun Chi, and his goal would be achieved.

As for Yin Bingtie and Jin Feng, there's no need to take action if they don't provoke me.

Now, with the extraordinary skill of Thunderfire Witness, he is 100% confident of killing even a fully-formed Bronze Warrior.

As time passed little by little, midnight soon arrived.

Zhao Yao sat quietly on the bed in the room, and suddenly felt sleepy.

His body slowly slumped down, his eyes slightly closed, as if he were about to fall asleep.

"Gurgle~"

Just before he fell into a deep sleep, he swallowed, putting a "Spring Dream Without a Trace" into his stomach.

……

The dream world still resembles the interior of the Void Car.

Purple smoke rises from the incense burner, and warm tents surround the greenhouse.

On the huge soft bed, Princess Yunchi lay sprawled, her tall, soft, and fair body exposed.

Princess Yunchi stripped herself naked and hugged Zhao Yao in her arms like a toy, and began to act impatiently.

"Um?"

Princess Yunchi frowned and looked around.

Pink mist appeared out of nowhere and quickly filled the dream world.

She looked down at Zhao Yao in her arms and realized that Zhao Yao was the source of this strange change.

"Why would someone swallow this pill beforehand? Could it be that they have some memory of the dream and swallowed it to enhance the experience?"

Yun Chi hesitated for a moment, then resumed its actions.

She had taken this amusing pill before, and in this situation it only made her more interested and happier.

There's no need to make a fuss.

But the next change truly shocked Princess Yunchi.

Why kill Yan Rouyun?

Zhao Yao, who had been at Princess Yunchi's mercy, suddenly spoke, startling her.

Her body stiffened, she stopped moving, her beautiful face furrowed, and she looked down at Zhao Yao beneath her, saying incredulously:

"You're actually awake?"

"Answer me, why did you kill Yan Rouyun?!"

Zhao Yao lay on the large bed, seemingly unable to control his body, motionless, his gaze fixed on Princess Yun Chi's eyes, and asked again in a deep voice.

"You knew about this too?"

Princess Yunchi was surprised and raised her eyebrows slightly.

As far as she knew, Yan Rouyun should have died far from Zhaoqian Village. How did Zhao Yao find out about Yan Rouyun's death? And how did he find out that he had ordered her to be killed?

Yun Chi looked down at Zhao Yao, who could only open his mouth to ask questions but couldn't move his body, and began to move on his own again, his beautiful face beaming with a radiant smile:

"If you want to kill, you just kill. There aren't that many reasons..."

As she spoke, she slowed her movements, reached out her large hand, and gently stroked Zhao Yao's face. Raising her snow-white neck, she slightly narrowed her eyes and, in an aria-like manner, uttered with rapture:

"If I had to find a reason..."

That is, I like you.

You make me feel very comfortable.

Unfortunately, I really dislike sharing things with others, especially things I like.

If anyone uses my stuff, I will make them pay the price.

That woman's name is Yan Rouyun, right?

"She's unlucky to have dared to touch my things. If I don't kill her, I'll feel like I have a bone stuck in my throat. So, the only thing I can do is send her to her death."

Princess Yunchi spoke with extreme composure, her tone carrying an air of self-righteousness and a disregard for human life.

It was as if she hadn't killed someone, but rather cursed at someone; the weight of it was quite ordinary and insignificant.

Zhao Yao frowned as he stared at Princess Yun Chi in front of him.

He knew Yun Chi was such a wicked woman, but he never imagined she was someone with such distorted perceptions.

He knew, of course, that there were such people with warped values ​​in the world, but he never imagined that he would one day encounter one himself.

He frowned, shook his head, and said:

"In your eyes, I am just a toy. Taking my life is not enough; you also want the lives of those around me."

"You're no princess at all, you're clearly a demon!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Chi stopped what he was doing and looked down at Zhao Yao for the first time.

Her eyes were full of curiosity as she asked:

"How do you know?"

How did you know I was going to kill you?

It's a pity that now that you know about this, I can't let you live past tonight.

I was originally thinking of sparing your life for a few more days so you could have some fun.

Why did you have to point it out?

Pretend you don't know, or you shouldn't have spoken in the first place. Why don't you just enjoy the happiness I'm giving you?

"Zhao Yao, am I not beautiful?"

Yun Chi's eyes were glazed over. She reached out and gently stroked Zhao Yao's cheek and jawline. She playfully put her fingers into Zhao Yao's mouth, her expression full of reluctance, but a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

Zhao Yao scanned the dream space with his eyes and saw that it had been completely eroded by the medicinal power of "Spring Dream Without a Trace". His tightly furrowed brows relaxed and a smile that made Princess Yun Chi's heart flutter suddenly appeared on his face.

He smiled and looked at Yun Chi, then said softly:

"What a coincidence, that's exactly what I was thinking too."

"?"

Princess Yunchi was puzzled, her brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

But the next moment, she suddenly screamed in agony:

"ah--"
