290: The Demon Island is destroyed, return to the Elf Island!
Just a few hours after Demon Island was annihilated by Chu Yun and his companions, this news, like a thunderous storm, spread throughout the entire Divine Continent Pure Land.
The main reason for the rapid spread of the news was, naturally, Misty Rain Tower.
With the operation of Yuan Realm’s top intelligence force, the news that Demon Island, one of the nine super-first-rate forces, had been completely annihilated, caused a stir no less impactful than the battle in the Holy Land.
And forces like Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall, Evil Infant Realm, and even Ancient Soul Nest, like startled birds, feared Thatched Cottage’s reckoning and activated their internal protective Formations, completely sealing off their respective territories.
...
Xuanyuan Ancient Clan.
Xuanyuan Tianhao sat in his courtyard with a somewhat gloomy expression.
He was still very shocked to hear the news that Demon Island had been destroyed.
Since the annihilation of Demon Island was Chu Yun’s doing, it meant he had already arrived in Divine Continent Pure Land from the Holy Land.
Such speed could only be achieved with the Immortal Gu in Yan Yu Great Emperor’s possession.
“Young Lord, Demon Island has been destroyed, and all the treasures within it have been taken.”
“From the looks of it, Demon God Heavenly Calculation of Demon Island has probably also fallen into Thatched Cottage’s hands.”
“If this Immortal Relic Treasure is controlled by Mu Qianli, then things might become even more troublesome.”
“Before coming here, the Clan Chief had already convened the Elders for an emergency meeting regarding this matter, presumably because of Demon God Heavenly Calculation.”
Elder Huo, who stood beside him, spoke with a grave expression.
Xuanyuan Tianhao’s expression slightly darkened, and after a moment of thought, he said, “What kind of grudge does Demon Island have with Thatched Cottage and Chu Yun?”
“It’s quite unexpected that they would be the first super-first-rate force to be annihilated by Chu Yun.”
Elder Huo nodded: “Indeed, the Clan Chief and several Elders are also puzzled by this.”
“After all, there has been no word of any irreconcilable enmity between Demon Island, Chu Yun, and Thatched Cottage that would force Thatched Cottage to resort to such a ruthless hand!”
Xuanyuan Tianhao then calmly stated, “Since Demon Island has been destroyed, then forces like Ten Thousand Demons Divine Hall and Evil Infant Realm will likely follow soon.”
“Chu Yun will certainly make a move against them.”
“If we want to deal with him, we could try waiting for him.”
“Elder Huo, go and convey my idea to father and the Elders. If we want to capture Chu Yun alive, we could try waiting for him in one of the remaining forces.”
Although Xuanyuan Tianhuan had told Xuanyuan Tianhao not to get involved in Chu Yun’s affairs anymore.
He still harbored malicious intentions.
Perhaps for Xuanyuan Tianhao, he needed Chu Yun’s head to prove to Xuanyuan Ancestor that he, Xuanyuan Tianhao, was not inferior to anyone!
“Yes, Young Lord.”
“I will immediately convey these words to the Clan Chief and the Elders.”
Elder Huo, loyal as ever, turned and left to carry out the task.
...
Ancient Soul Nest.
At this moment, within Ancient Soul Nest, in the main hall deep inside the Soul Nest.
Hun Ning and Soul Shine were both slumped in chairs, their injuries severe. Although they had taken many Emperor Pills, their faces were still pale, and their Qi was extremely chaotic.
They were the first to escape back.
In the battle at the Holy Land, they were both severely wounded by Mu Qianli. It could be said that if their injuries had been a little more serious, their Soul Clan Origin would have suffered permanent damage.
“This time, we were truly screwed over by Gu Changge!”
“Mu Qianli… her strength is simply too terrifying!”
“I doubt anyone within the Limitless Realm can be her opponent!”
Soul Shine’s Qi was unstable, his tone filled with both anger and a hint of the narrow escape from death.
Hun Ning’s expression was the same. Only after clashing with Mu Qianli did he truly feel how terrifying this woman was.
“Demon Island has been destroyed. If Thatched Cottage still intends to act, then the target will undoubtedly be one of our three forces.”
“My Ancient Soul Nest is located in the Void Realm. The entrance has now been sealed, and I have completely concealed its aura, shattering a quintillion li of the nearby Void Realm.”
“Even if they want to find us, they will need to expend considerable effort.”
“It should buy us enough time until the Old Ancestor completes his Fusion.”
Hun Ning sighed softly.
For so many years, their Ancient Soul Nest had never been so aggrieved.
They could only shatter the Void Realm, conceal the entrance’s aura, and prevent others from easily finding them.
This way, even if Thatched Cottage wanted to act, Ancient Soul Nest would likely be left for last due to the difficulty of searching.
“Hmph!”
“Once the Old Ancestor finishes his Fusion with Ksitigarbha’s Physical Body, then the humiliation that woman Mu Qianli inflicted upon us, I will certainly return it to her twofold!” Soul Shine roared with anger.
“Don’t think too much for now.”
“Both our injuries are severe, and the Nest is currently safe. Let’s first go into seclusion to heal our wounds.” Hun Ning said.
“Alright.”
Subsequently, Hun Ning and Soul Shine, the Heavenly Soul Duo, directly sealed off the entire main hall and went into seclusion to treat their physical injuries.
...
And Evil Infant Realm.
Of the Evil Infant Realm’s Twin Emperors, only Slaughter Emperor Hun Wuzhen, dragging his heavily injured and broken body, managed to escape back into Evil Infant Realm.
However, the approach he chose after returning was vastly different from Ancient Soul Nest’s.
He even put healing his injuries second. Instead, upon his return, he gathered all the Evil Infant Great Emperors under Gu Changge’s command and suppressed them.
Immediately after, he ordered his trusted subordinates to help him set up an ancient Evil Infant Formation.
He intended to sacrifice those Evil Infant Great Emperors under Gu Changge’s command to activate their Evil Infant Realm’s most powerful trump card!
...
As for all of this, Chu Yun was completely unaware.
Nor was he interested in knowing.
Currently, he, Afuya, Heavenly Demoness, and A Niu were still traveling through the Void Realm wormhole.
Their destination was not Thatched Cottage.
Instead, it was the Elf Clan’s Holy Land, Elf Island, which Afuya had personally created.
Afuya planned to reclaim control of Elf Island and punish the Elf Clan’s high-ranking decision-makers.
These unfilial descendants, Afuya was determined to teach them a profound lesson.
And since Chu Yun was not in a hurry to go to Thatched Cottage, he thought of going to Elf Island with Afuya first, and then having A Niu lead the way back to Thatched Cottage.
“As for the high-ranking officials of Elf Island, do you plan to kill them all and replace them, or…?”
Along the way, Chu Yun looked at Afuya, curiously asking her how she planned to deal with Elf Island’s high-ranking officials.
Such as Elf Ancestor, that Limitless Realm expert, and the Great Emperor Realm experts of the four great Families.
In Chu Yun’s opinion, most of these people basically deserved death.
But if they were all killed, Elf Island’s high-end combat power would directly experience a vacuum.
It could be said that this would directly lead to a loss of over ninety percent of Elf Island’s viable Advanced forces.
However, if they were not killed, it would make Afuya seem too lenient, and those people might still cause trouble in the future.
Chu Yun was quite curious which of these two difficult choices Afuya would make.
