A great victory, the demons finally retreated!

In the Deep Space of the Universe… the golden cudgel struck true, instantly hitting the demonic shadow.

The next moment, the demonic shadow's body began to gradually collapse.

In the dark deep space, it transformed into even darker shattered shadows.

It was as if all traces of its existence had been erased.

At this moment, its face was filled with unwillingness and fury:

"No… this is impossible… impossible!!!"

"How could this Ancestor… be defeated by your hands…"

"No!!! This Ancestor… is unwilling!!!!"

But, it could do nothing.

It could only watch its body gradually dissipate.

Even—

It despairingly discovered that even the Laws it controlled… completely shattered at this moment!

The shattering of the Laws… meant that… it no longer had any means of resurrection!

Ultimately, the demonic shadow's body completely dissipated.

A generation's Ancestor Realm Heavenly Demon, thus fell!

Seeing this, Su Bai and Emperor Long Chen both let out a long sigh of relief, finally lifting the heavy stone from their hearts. They knew that with Su Hongji captured and the demonic shadow dead, this great war ended in victory for the Human Race!

But for some reason… Su Bai didn't receive any experience point rewards?

Not even a single one.

However, just when they thought everything was over,

An extremely terrifying demonic voice suddenly rang out:

"Hehehehe! Hehehehe! Do you really think… this is the end? The Demon Race… will never easily admit defeat…"

This voice was incredibly vast, seemingly echoing throughout the entire Universe.

It was evident that the opponent's strength was astonishing.

Su Bai and Emperor Long Chen exchanged glances, a hint of wariness flashing in their eyes.

They guessed that although the demonic shadow had been defeated, the Demon Race… seemed to have even stronger experts?!

Perhaps… even surpassing the Ancestor Realm?!

Just then, that demonic voice, penetrating space, came again:

"Hehehehe! However… this demon… can temporarily surrender to you on behalf of the Heavenly Demon Race… But, you… must also agree to one condition of this demon! Otherwise, this demon will descend – at all costs!!! How about it? You insignificant insects!!!"

Su Bai frowned deeply, asking in a cold voice:

"What condition?!"

The next moment, that terrifying demonic voice rang out again:

"This demon can order the Demon Race Army to retreat… But, you… must sign a contract with our race… to guarantee the survival of the Demon Race…"

Emperor Long Chen heard this, a flicker of thought in his eyes.

He knew that the demonic shadow had been defeated, but… the threat of the Demon Race had not been completely eliminated.

Just like the demonic voice that appeared now.

It was beyond his comprehension.

Perhaps… it was a level above Chaos Realm?!

He wasn't entirely clear on the specifics, but since the other party could transmit a message silently in front of him and Su Bai, then its strength… was definitely formidable!

At least a Chaos Level Demon Race member!

Moreover… it called itself… descending?!

That meant—

Its strength might have exceeded the limits of this Universe!

Of course!

Without proof, it was also possible that it was just saying that intentionally.

The purpose was to scare him and Su Bai.

However… if a contract could truly restrain the Demon Race… perhaps… it was also a good choice?!

Currently, the true strength of the other party was unknown.

He dared not gamble.

If he lost the gamble… the victory that had been so hard-won,

Might be ruined!

Even the entire Human Race would have to be buried with it!

While the other party… would only pay some price.

"Alright, we agree to you," Emperor Long Chen said in a deep voice, "But… the content of the contract must be determined by our Blue Star Human Race!"

The demonic voice was silent for a moment, then finally agreed.

Afterward, it completely vanished, no longer heard.

As if it had never appeared.

With the disappearance of the demonic voice, the Deep Space of the Universe returned to silence.

Su Bai and Emperor Long Chen stood in an unknown star system, gazing at the gradually retreating Demon Race Army in the distance, their hearts not feeling at ease.

Although the demonic shadow had been eliminated, that mysterious demonic voice made them realize that the threat of the Demon Race… was far from over.

Su Bai sighed, his brows deeply furrowed, and asked in a low voice:

"Big Brother… what do you think…"

"What kind of existence is the master of that demonic voice?"

Emperor Long Chen shook his head, his gaze profound:

"Unclear, but what is certain is… its strength… is probably far beyond our imagination. It called itself 'this demon', and even mentioned 'descending', which means… it might be a Demon Race member from a higher-level Universe, perhaps… an existence beyond our comprehension."

Su Bai was silent for a moment, then slowly said:

"Alas! Indeed! However, no matter what, we must be fully prepared. The signing of the contract is only temporary; the Demon Race will never give up easily. We… need to improve our strength as quickly as possible, especially… to find a way to counter Chaos Level and above experts."

Emperor Long Chen nodded, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes:

"That's right. Although this great war was victorious, it also exposed our shortcomings. We need more experts, more trump cards!"

After speaking, he suddenly turned to look at Su Bai, with a puzzled expression:

"Su Bai… you, you…"

"Why are you also in the Chaos Realm???"

"You weren't just…"

At this point, he stopped.

He didn't know what to say… He wanted to say that just a few hours ago, Su Bai had only just reached the eighth stage.

He was merely a small ant!

Yet, a few hours later, he had transformed… into a Chaos Realm Expert!!!

It was incredibly unbelievable!

Su Bai scratched his head, a little embarrassed:

"Big Brother, you should know about this…"

"Hmm, Su Hongji, do you remember her!"

"She was that Chaos Level Demon Race member from before."

"Didn't Mother Goddess… plant a contract on her?"

"I just used the power of that contract…"

"Temporarily borrowed her power…"

"Hmm! I borrowed a little too much…"

"I probably borrowed…"

"Uh, all of it, I guess!"

After speaking, Su Bai smiled shyly, a little embarrassed.

Emperor Long Chen's eyes immediately widened upon hearing this:

"You daring brat, what if something went wrong?!"

"Don't you know… that she… is also Demon Race!!!"

"Aren't you afraid… afraid… aren't you afraid she would…"

Su Bai scratched his head again, chuckling:

"Hehe! The situation was urgent at the time."

Just then, Su Bai suddenly felt a stir within his body.

So he quickly put away his smile and said seriously:

"Big Brother… time's up…"

"Su Hongji, she's reached her limit!"

"I… must go back now!"

"The rest…"

"I'm leaving it all to you, okay…"

After speaking, Su Bai's mind moved, and he instantly returned to Blue Star.

Emperor Long Chen saw this and shook his head with a wry smile:

"Heh… this kid…"

"But it's good! We won!"
