Chapter 530: Chapter 418: Destruction? Yes, Destruction.

Boom!

The bar door closed behind him.

Wu Xiaode wore an impatient look as he walked across the street and sat down on the steps.

Opposite the bar used to be an inn.

After Wu Xiaode’s arrival, the gangs had all withdrawn from Sare Town.

So—

In this border town, so insignificant that even birds scorned to poop here, the inn would have gone out of business.

The gangs had kept the inn running solely to deal with Wu Xiaode’s people.

Once, Xiao Baihong had been enticed by a treasure they offered and had played a round of betrayal, wiping out all members of another gang.

After that incident, the inn remained.

Wu Xiaode sat on the steps in front of the inn, thoughts silently swirling in his mind.

Shen Xiujun had already scored a point.

He hadn’t scored any yet.

With a total of four points, he could boost his reputation to respected.

Damn it.

How could he score points with her?

Wu Xiaode pondered for a while but found no clue, so he began to think about another question.

—How could he stop losing points?

After much thought, he came up with no good solution.

Then he took a step back.

How could he avoid her?

—"I’ve avoided you already; you can’t just remotely score points off me, right?"

To avoid...

Even if he fled to the ends of the earth, it would not be difficult for her to find him with her abilities.

Unless the Demon Mist had improved enough to shield his presence from her perception.

The Demon Mist had just leveled up a few notches.

Should he give it a try?

Wu Xiaode, after briefly pondering, cast his gaze again towards the bar.

Inside the bar.

Qiong was casually chatting with the Shen sisters.

The sisters were very curious about her and wanted to ask about Wu Xiaode.

But as far as Qiong was concerned, she had always known Arian and didn’t know Wu Xiaode at all.

—With her social skills, deflecting the conversation was not a difficult task.

The situation gradually turned into a stalemate where neither could gain an advantage.

Wu Xiaode’s voice suddenly sounded in Qiong’s mind:

"Qiong, I’ll give you a mist. Try to test whether they can see through this mist—especially Shen Xiujun."

"This is important for us."

Coming from a prominent family, Qiong had this advantage—

No matter whether Arian had a mistress or not, once family interests were involved, she would put aside personal feelings without hesitation and start to cooperate with Arian’s actions.

"The mist will appear in the location you indicate—think of a way to test them, nod your head once you’re ready, and I’ll release the mist at the corresponding position," Wu Xiaode said.

Qiong thought for a few moments, then suddenly smiled and said to the two women:

"Wu Xiaode mentioned a gemstone a long time ago. He said it’s very important to him. Do you want to see it?"

Shen Feixue glanced at her, thinking, isn’t this woman Little Wu’s assistant? Why is she starting to boast about having a special relationship with him?

But Shen Xiujun expressed interest: "I’d like to see it."

After a sweep of her gaze over the two women, Qiong already had an understanding.

Shen Feixue and Wu Xiaode were probably innocent, but her younger sister Shen Xiujun was different.

So, her enemy was Shen Xiujun.

—But what was really going on with Shen Feixue’s pregnancy?

She had once known her and was aware of these issues, but today, due to her concerns, she almost mistook her for a love rival.

Why not clarify the situation?

With this thought in mind, Qiong changed the subject:

"Sister, you’re pregnant—but why haven’t I seen a man taking care of you?"

Shen Feixue waved her hand dismissively: "I don’t have a man."

Both Qiong and Shen Xiujun were taken aback.

"No man?"

The two women asked in unison.

Pride like never before surfaced on Shen Feixue’s face as she said solemnly:

"This is a fertilized egg I designed using the combined computing power of networks connecting many countries around the world and the intelligence of extraterrestrial relics. Its DNA surpasses human imagination and is the supreme masterpiece of artificial intelligence."

A silence ensued.

Even Wu Xiaode across the street felt a bit surprised.

As a warrior of his level, hearing through a wall was a trivial matter; he clearly heard Shen Feixue’s words.

"That’s not right, life cannot be formed like this, and even if it is formed, it won’t survive long without going through ’life evolution’ over lengthy periods of time—it will die soon," Qiong said, looking at Shen Feixue with a touch of pity.

In history, deities had attempted incarnation—

This was achievable.

But this time, it had clearly crossed the boundaries of living beings and entered that terrifying blind spot.

Even the Divine could not accomplish such a feat.

Because even the Divine are part of the living!

This is the boundary of power.

After thinking it over, Shen Xiujun also spoke gravely:

"That is a forbidden zone that living beings cannot touch—it’s constructed from countless lessons and experiences. The terror and unknown within it are not something living beings can endure."

The two shook their heads in unison.

Whether it was the matriarch of the ancient Destruction family or the all-conquering Feeding Demon Master, neither was optimistic about the matter.

Wu Xiaode was now feeling somewhat hesitant and uneasy.

Could The Queen Mother of the West truly succeed in her reincarnation?

As a Great Venerable, she must have long known how Shen Feixue came to be pregnant.

Why did she insist on being reborn in Shen Feixue’s belly?

Could it be that she was right, and the knowledge of the Feeding Demon Master was wrong?

...Unclear.

Wu Xiaode sighed.

He really didn’t know what the future held.

Shen Xiujun remembered her identity and an appropriately worried expression surfaced on her face as she said softly,

"Sister, you need to think this through, this is very dangerous."

"It’s okay, I have thought it through clearly; I am willing to dedicate myself to science, don’t worry."

Shen Feixue said firmly.

At this moment, with Wu Xiaode not present and no worries about her younger sister, Shen Feixue said a few more words before heading to the laboratory in the backyard.

Qiong and Shen Xiujun were left in the bar.

It was then that Qiong remembered her task, and having fully clarified that Shen Feixue was not a romantic rival, she brought the conversation back on track,

"Wu Xiaode said that the thing he cherished most is usually in one of his pockets."

In his pocket, huh?

Wu Xiaode immediately released Demon Mist to fill the left pocket of his trousers and then placed a red gemstone inside.

After doing this, he stood up, walked back to the bar entrance, pushed the door open, and went inside.

"Eh? He’s back."

Shen Xiujun started to smile.

The next second.

Wu Xiaode felt the gemstone in his left pocket disappear.

It was almost instantaneous.

The gemstone was back in his pocket.

Its teleportation speed was so fast that it could easily go unnoticed.

A sense of dread began to weigh on Wu Xiaode’s heart.

All the pockets on his person were empty except for the left one, filled with Demon Mist and the red gemstone.

If the Demon Mist could hide the red gemstone—

Shen Xiujun wouldn’t have noticed the gemstone, nor moved it.

It seemed that even the Silence Demon Mist, promoted six tiers in a row, still couldn’t hide from her senses.

No good!

If he couldn’t even get defense right, Shen Xiujun would keep gaining scores!

He must elevate the Silence Demon Mist to a higher level until he could deceive her!

Wu Xiaode made up his mind on the spot and was ready to leave again.

"So you’re still talking— I won’t join in girls’ chatter. Bye."

He said and immediately made to leave the bar again.

Suddenly.

Qiong’s expression changed, and she exclaimed in a low voice, "They’ve actually followed us here!"

"Who?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Those from the large families—they’re here!" Qiong said, somewhat flustered.

Wu Xiaode turned to look down the street outside the door.

He saw the Void open, and dozens of men and women wearing the Destruction Council’s battle gear walked out.

"Arian, please forgive our intrusion into your world."

The man leading them smiled disdainfully and said to him,

"We are here to eradicate this world today; just watch."

Wu Xiaode, already troubled by Shen Xiujun’s situation, was provoked to laughter at this moment.

Who had pushed these people out to test him?

Indeed.

They didn’t know that the Book of the Dead had already merged with the Destruction Laws.

No time to chat with them.

Then let them all die.

With a thought from Wu Xiaode, the Book of the Dead responded immediately.

Two lines of ice crystal text appeared in the Void:

"You still possess the highest authority of the Destruction Council."

"Will you destroy?"

"Yes," Wu Xiaode said softly.

Dozens of men and women were about to make a move when they simultaneously erupted into screams.

Before the eyes of Wu Xiaode and the two women, these people all exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

Wu Xiaode frowned and stepped back into the bar while covering his nose.

"I hope that after this wave, there won’t be any more foolish actions."

He said to Qiong.

But then, an unexpected event occurred—

With a "clang," a star appeared above Shen Xiujun’s head, along with several lines of ice crystal text:

"Congratulations!"

"You’ve also scored in Shen Xiujun’s heart!"

"Current score:"

"1:1."

Wu Xiaode was taken aback for a moment, then he realized.

Right!

Shen Xiujun is the mother nurturing destruction, the Demon Lord of the boundless calamity!

How could he score in her heart?

By destroying everything!!!

Wu Xiaode’s mind cleared suddenly, and he felt as if he had finally found a glimmer of hope for victory.
