I quickly made my way to the battlefield with Against Heaven, preparing to meet up with everyone. Along the way, Against Heaven sat silently behind me, while Little Pink flew swiftly.
At that moment, a peculiar aura emerged, powerful and very close. I turned around abruptly; it was Against Heaven!
"You, you—" Suddenly, I found myself at a loss for words.
The Against Heaven before me was no longer the disheveled figure from earlier. He was enveloped in a layer of purple energy, his eyes tightly shut. I was all too familiar with this scene; he was about to break through!
His golden eyes opened, instantly flashing with a sharp light. Then, they gradually softened, and soon after, he smiled—like someone carefree and unrestrained, celebrating the beauty of freedom and life. I could sense that both his strength and soul had ascended to a much higher realm.
It felt like ages since I had seen such a dazzling smile, and I found my mood lifted by his presence. In the twilight-colored underworld, a giant Phoenix Butterfly cast a long shadow, carrying a boy who shone like the sun, along with me gazing at him. We savored this moment of rare tranquility.
"Yes, I've reached the initial level of Supreme Lord," Against Heaven said with a smile.
"This is the real you, isn't it?"
A clean-cut and cheerful young man.
"Thank you, Xi Meng." Then he embraced me like an older brother. I didn't refuse; he had endured too much on this journey.
Shaking my head with a smile, I said, "I hope that no matter what we encounter, you, Against Heaven, can always have your own smile like this moment."
"I will."
...
Soon enough, we arrived at the battlefield. I thought that with the seal of Dark Corner lifted and the Demon Dragon Clan no longer suppressed—especially with Against Heaven as a Supreme Lord—we would surely repel those Skeleton Monsters. This time, we were going to fight beautifully.
Unfortunately, what lay before us was a different scene.
The few remaining Skeleton Monsters were struggling for survival while the Demon Dragons had transformed from their previous weak state into formidable beings, completely unrestrained. In no time at all, the Skeleton Monsters were wiped out.
I looked helplessly at Against Heaven; it seemed we had arrived too late and there was no need for us to take action.
Upon seeing Against Heaven return, the Demon Dragon Clan excitedly knelt down and shouted, "Young Master, we have finally regained our strength and will no longer be oppressed!"
The calm yet reassuring voice of the leader echoed, "The seal is broken, everyone is free now."
"Great! The seal is finally broken!"
"From now on, none of us have to be afraid!"
"Yes, we can finally leave this cursed place!"
Everyone shouted excitedly.
"Listen to me," the leader suddenly spoke, his expression serious.
"Don't celebrate too early. Remember how we were bullied in the past; we must unite. Also, Siyimo owes us a blood debt that will eventually be repaid!"
"Eliminate Siyimo!"
"Eliminate Siyimo!"
"Eliminate Siyimo!"
The Demon Dragon roared in rebellion.
Suddenly, "Ah! That hurts."
"What happened, Xi Meng?" The leader noticed my discomfort immediately and asked anxiously.
I shook my head; the piercing pain was brief, but I still felt uneasy afterward. It was such a strange pain.
Silver Moon, Wild Ghost, White Soul, and Flower Tears approached as well.
"It might just be exhaustion; I don't have much Soul Energy left."
"Alright then, everyone should rest well today. We'll set off again tomorrow morning." Silver Moon helped me up and summoned the Qilin Beast to return to Black Horn Hall.
I felt very uneasy as I gently touched the spot where the pain had been. It was my Necklace, the Prisoner! Why would this happen? Could it be that the Prisoner is in danger?
No, that can't be. The Prisoner is so strong; he must be fine.
With an urgent heart, I wanted to see you again, quickly, prisoner.
The next morning, we gathered in the hall of Black Horn Hall. The Elders no longer came, and the positions of the Demon Dragon Clan were reassigned. However, I believed that with the seal of Dark Corner lifted, no one would dare to come and take risks against the strength of the Demon Dragon Clan.
Although Dark Corner had once imprisoned the Demon Dragon Clan, it was still their home. After discussions, it was decided that the Demon Dragon Clan would continue to reside in Dark Corner, keeping a low profile and waiting for the final battle.
Walking to the border of Dark Corner, where we had entered, I stopped and gazed at the vast black land. It seemed that this place had become less terrifying and desolate.
Everyone turned with me to look at Dark Corner, as if something subtle was slowly changing.
"Look, something has sprouted here," I exclaimed in surprise at a tender shoot not far away. The fact that a Little Sprite was willing to grow here indicated that Dark Corner would no longer be a lifeless place; it would no longer be The Forgotten Place.
"That is a seed of the Azure Demon Rose," Silver Moon whispered in my ear, her voice soft enough for only us to hear.
I paused, looking at the sprouting seed with a wry smile. Silver Moon, I have always been curious about why you liked me. Yet, I couldn't bring myself to ask.
"Alright, let's head to the next stop." Silver Moon seemed to be in a good mood as she flashed her signature smile. She paused for a moment and looked at White Soul and Flower Tears. "Next stop, Holy Spirit Village."
It was rare to see White Soul's usually expressionless face frown, while Flower Tears appeared to be flustered.
A new story was about to begin. Farewell, Dark Corner.
