Volume 1, Chapter 70 – The Purple Meteor
The moment she spotted the unconscious silver-haired girl nearby, a subtle but chilling murderous intent flickered within Li Yu’s eyes.
She had long, elegant silver-white hair, a face that rivaled a goddess and was in no way inferior to her own mother’s beauty, the knight uniform of the Ashurmos Church, and most importantly, that dense, loathsome holy magic and divine power…
Upon seeing the silver-haired girl, Li Yu instantly realized her identity—she was the Chosen Maiden hidden within the Ashurmos Church! She was the ‘female lead’ her mother always talked about.
Li Yu couldn’t be bothered with the ordinary people of the Ancheka Continent; as long as they didn’t get in her way or look for trouble, she had no interest in attacking them.
But the Main Character Group was different.
Toward these beings who were prophesied to destroy the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons and kill her mother, Li Yu felt a deep-seated hatred, wishing for nothing more than to eliminate them immediately! The other demon king tier existences and those who had received her mother’s favor all felt the same way.
However, Li Yu could never understand why her mother insisted on protecting these protagonists when it was clear they would harm her in the future… Every time she asked, her mother remained silent, as if she had some unspeakable reason.
‘Did she really want to commit suicide?!’
This had once left Li Yu feeling extremely depressed. Despite their lack of understanding, as her mother’s children, they could only obey her will. Thus, constrained by their mother’s authority, they never dared to blatantly kill these so-called Chosen Ones, instead choosing to cause trouble in the shadows as much as possible, secretly getting rid of these favored children of heaven without letting their mother discover their intentions!
Just like thirteen years ago, though for some reason, the ‘male lead’ who should have died back then had suddenly reappeared…

Regardless, their mission had to continue.
When Saibok previously informed their mother about the Main Character Group, he had intentionally blurred certain details. When he mentioned the female lead, he only stated that she was within the Ashurmos Church, without disclosing her appearance or name. However, Li Yu and Li Mo had seen the image-recording magic stone prepared by Saibok and learned what the female lead looked like, specifically so they could seize any opportunity to act.
They would create an ‘accident’ to send her to the afterlife!
This was why Li Yu recognized the girl the moment she saw Mengxi.
‘I didn’t expect this woman to actually run into Mother?!’
Damn it… Li Yu couldn’t help but curse inwardly. At this moment, she also realized why her foolish sister had suddenly defied their mother’s orders and attacked the Fort Garros.
Seriously, Mother was right next to the female lead! How could she possibly let anything happen to her?! ‘Sister, your intelligence is truly worrying…’ Li Yu’s emerald eyes narrowed slightly as she mocked her sister in her mind.
Since the female lead was by her mother’s side, a direct attack was impossible; she had to find an opportunity. Furthermore, it was best to pretend she didn’t recognize the female lead. If she identified her immediately, it might arouse her mother’s suspicion.
Based on this judgment, Li Yu intentionally feigned a ‘confused’ expression and tugged on Yumo’s right hand, curiously pointing at the silver-haired girl enveloped in blood-colored butterflies and crimson light. Her murderous intent and hostility were completely hidden, beyond anyone’s notice.

“Mother, who is that older sister? Were you protecting her just now?” Li Yu’s tone was filled with confusion. Compared to Li Mo, who was as silly as a husky and completely incapable of deception, Li Yu was the Academy Award-winning actress of the Abyssal Demon world.
Hearing Li Yu’s words, Yumo looked toward Mengxi with some hesitation. “Ah, that sister? Um…”
A hint of conflict appeared in Yumo’s crimson eyes. Actually, she knew her children disliked the Main Character Group a ‘tiny’ bit. After all, these Chosen Ones were their natural enemies, so it was normal to loathe them…
After a moment of hesitation, Yumo smiled helplessly and gently patted Li Yu’s small head. “Her situation is a bit complicated. I’ll tell you about it later.”
“Okay.” Since her mother didn’t intend to say more, the well-behaved Li Yu naturally didn’t push further. Anyway, she already knew everything perfectly well. Li Yu had only one thought in her mind now: how to undetectably kill this Chosen Maiden…
‘What should I do?’ Li Yu’s little head began spinning at high speed.
On the other side, seeing that Li Yu didn’t say much, Yumo couldn’t help but feel moved by her daughter’s obedience. Compared to that little troublemaker Li Mo, Li Yu was truly such a good child~ The black-haired girl smiled with satisfaction.
Afterward, Yumo scanned the ruins of the Fort Garros and looked at the snow-white giant wolf in the distance, which had already broken through the barrier and regained its freedom.
When Bai Yanluo attacked Li Mo earlier, the vast holy magic she released without restraint had inevitably drawn the attention of a large swarm of Abyssal Demons. These demons then charged out of the fortress to attack Bai Yanluo. Taking advantage of this opportunity, most of the survivors in the Fort Garros had retreated.

In that case, there was no need for her to stay here any longer. Since there were no humans left in the fortress, it was perfectly reasonable for the swarm of Abyssal Demons to retreat without their prey, and it wouldn’t arouse anyone’s suspicion.
Thus, as the crimson Shadow Essence vibrated slowly, Yumo sent a retreat signal to the snow-white giant wolf in the distance.
Elsewhere, “Awoo! Awoo!!!” (‘Where did that damned Apostle run off to?!’)
Having just torn the sanctuary magic, into pieces, Li Mo instinctively let out a bloodthirsty, frenzied roar! she tried to find Bai Yanluo, wanting to crush that wretched woman who had schemed against her into a pulp.
As the silly Li Mo looked around for her target, Yumo’s retreat signal slowly entered the snow-white wolf’s mind.
?!!
Meow-woo? This aura? Mother?!

Upon receiving Yumo’s signal, the snow-white wolf immediately stopped snarling and pricked up its ears, looking exactly like a good dog… no, a good wolf. Then, the giant wolf excitedly looked toward the Fort Garros. At the same time, the majestic and oppressive Shadow Essence began to flow back into Li Mo’s body.
As the Shadow Essence retracted, the black armor covering the giant wolf dissipated into clouds of black mist, and the savage black patterns also slowly vanished. Li Mo gradually returned to her original giant wolf form. The Abyssal Demon instincts were once again suppressed within her body, and her massive form returned to the control of her reason.
Then, this silly giant wolf, upon hearing Yumo’s call, instantly forgot about her battle with Bai Yanluo and her previous defiance of Yumo’s orders to attack the fortress…
‘Yay! I can go home!!’ That was the only thought in the simple-minded Li Mo’s head.
Thus, the snow-white husky wagged its tail happily and prepared to run toward the Fort Garros to pick up her mother and sister and head back to the great forest! She completely forgot the tragic fact that she might face some family discipline once she got home…
Hmm?? Sister? Why is Li Yu here too? Feeling her sister’s presence, the little white wolf blinked her eyes in confusion.
Just then, Li Mo’s brow suddenly furrowed, and she looked up at the sky with curiosity. Above the vast, blue sky, a meteor flashing with a brilliant purple light suddenly pierced through the clouds and was flying rapidly toward Li Mo’s location.
Li Mo: Meow?? What is that thing?
