Volume 8, Chapter 2 – No Different From a Demon
Xingyu Muxi left.
Although Tianyin was extremely reluctant to part with her, some things were not something Tianyin could decide. After all, Xingyu Muxi was not an ordinary person to begin with, and she also had her own things she needed to do.
Of course, Tianyin still believed in Sister Xiaomu.
After all, Sister Xiaomu had said she would be back before long.
And just as Tianyin and Xingyu Muxi had only just parted.
In the kingdom currently controlled by Yunchou, in some relatively hidden places, huge teleportation arrays were carved out.
And as these huge teleportation arrays were established, countless demons from Inferno walked out from the teleportation arrays.
Demons.
A symbol of evil, and also of chaos.
And when a large number of demons appeared in the world, it also meant ominous things were about to happen.
Of course, the one who set up these teleportation arrays was actually Yunchou himself. And according to his agreement with the Abyssal Lord, Yunchou agreed to cede half of the kingdom’s territory to the Abyssal Lord as the condition. And as these territories were ceded, countless demons walked out from the teleportation arrays Yunchou had prepared.
“Yunchou. You outsiders really don’t care about the safety of this world’s natives… Hahahahahahahahaha, you’re really too heartless~”
Feeling more and more demons arriving in this Main World plane, the Abyssal Lord was in an excellent mood.

And at this moment, the Abyssal Lord, who appeared in the form of a young girl, wore an unusually “delighted” smile on its face.
“Ceding half of the kingdom’s territory to Inferno is simply the deal from back then for letting you take action and defeat the King of Knights. I’ve already agreed to this.”
Facing the Abyssal Lord’s nasty sense of humor, Yunchou remained expressionless.
“You want to become the End, and I want to obtain the King of Knights’ power. Between us, it’s just taking what we each need.”
“Hahahahahahahahaha, since you know the End, do you know that once the End shows itself, everything will turn into nothingness? So, when the time comes for me to become the End, even if you have the King of Knights’ Throne-tier power, you’ll still die under my power. What a foolish outsider… Hahahahahahahahaha…”
“Foolish?”
Admittedly, what the Abyssal Lord said was the truth.
Once the Abyssal Lord became the End, the world would vanish at the very moment it became the End.
And when the world vanished, all power would vanish along with it.
And as the Abyssal Lord said, when the Abyssal Lord completed the final step, the power Yunchou possessed would also turn into nothingness. So no matter how one looked at it, the power Yunchou traded for was like it had a time limit.
And the final point of that time limit.
Was the day the Abyssal Lord became the End.

“For me, this really is foolish… Using the outcome of destroying the world to obtain power. This thing itself is stupidity beyond belief.”
Saying that, Yunchou lowered his head and looked at his own palm.
“But… foolish beyond belief or not, power is something that must be possessed in the first place. Without power, I can’t change anything. And if I have power, then within what I’m capable of, I can still change the trajectory of some things.”
‘Perhaps… changing the future…’
Yunchou did not say those last words out loud. In the end, Yunchou closed his mouth and silently stared at the lines on his palm.
“This world is real, Abyssal Lord. But no matter how real this world is, it’s still just a world that has nothing to do with me. An ending where the world is destroyed is, to me, an outsider, better than anything.”
Yunchou’s words made the Abyssal Lord laugh uncontrollably.
“Hahahahahahahahaha, what a heartless person… Hahahahahahahahaha, it’s such a pity you won’t come to my Inferno to be a demon! You clearly look like a human, but your soul is already not much different from a demon at all!”
“Cold, heartless. Treating the existence of life with an indifferent attitude. You clearly know this world is a real world, yet you still hold onto the thought of letting this world be destroyed. In some sense, Yunchou, you’re even more demon than those demons under me… Hahahahahahahahaha…”
With a self-mocking smile, Yunchou cast his gaze toward the Abyssal Lord, the Abyssal Lord whose outward appearance looked like a delicate young girl.
“So what if I’m a demon? Compared to you, Abyssal Lord, who is set on becoming the End and destroying the world. Between us, we’re actually not that different.”
“Is that so?”
Rеаԁ oո ΚаtRеаԁіոgСаfe
Hearing that, a smile of unclear meaning appeared on the young girl’s face.
“We’re not the same, Yunchou. The mission Father gave me is to become the End. Destroying the world, for me, is nothing more than completing the task Father assigned to me. Hahahahahahahahaha… So, we’re far too different, Yunchou.”
“Madman.”
Looking at the Abyssal Lord who seemed somewhat deranged, in the end Yunchou only forced out that word.
……
And as the demons from Inferno descended, the situation in the entire Main World began to turn subtle.
As long as one was a strong person, they could sense that feeling of a storm about to come. Naturally, right after seeing Xingyu Muxi off, Tianyin also felt a trace of unease.
“What could it be…”
Although she felt uneasy, Tianyin still couldn’t form any thoughts about this unease for the time being.
Because right now, Tianyin’s mood was extremely low, after all, Xingyu Muxi had already left.
Of course, there were still things Tianyin had to do. For example, waking Yeluo.
Pride had returned to its place. All of the Seven Original Sins’ Original Sins had been gathered.
Reaⅾ оո КаtRеaⅾіոɡСafe
And with these Original Sins gathered, Tianyin finally understood why the System had said back then that only the power of Pride could awaken Yeluo.
Because Pride’s power could not only deprive others of vitality, at the same time, Pride could also grant others life.
And as the previous host of Pride, Lucifa simply couldn’t control the power of Pride. So in Lucifa’s hands, the power of Pride only deprived others of vitality, and would not grant others life.
But in Tianyin’s hands, Pride was different.
After Tianyin obtained Pride, she mastered Pride in an instant. And Tianyin, who had mastered Pride, could grant others life. Naturally, for Yeluo, whose life was on the verge of death, Tianyin could use this method to let Yeluo awaken again.
And Tianyin still kept the matter of waking Yeluo in her heart.
After all, Yeluo had been an important helper who helped her defeat the Beastmen back then.
Not only that, Yeluo was also the first person who took the initiative to kiss Tianyin mouth to mouth.
“After she’s revived… then for Sister Yeluo, she’ll continue serving as the Half-beasts’ leader…”
After settling what would happen after Yeluo awakened in her heart, Tianyin came to the room where Yeluo was sleeping and began the steps to “awaken” the catgirl Yeluo.
