Chapter 782: Chapter 565 All Settled_2

But in her vertical pupils, there was only the sight of that vibrant heart, so close within reach.

"Wretched beast! Get out here!"

An Tingfeng roared as he thrust both his forepaws into his chest, trying to grasp the tiny yet lethal figure.

He didn’t understand, just what had he done to be in debt to this heartless creature, that it would take the risk of perishing together, revealing such ferocity to exchange lives with him.

"Huff—"

An Yi finally exhaled that breath, then lifted his palms, sharp claws protruding from his fingertips, fiercely plunging both claws into the heart, and immediately all his demonic power burst forth!

Boom!

Accompanied by the muffled sound of flesh exploding, the robust demonic power surged instantaneously through the heart into An Tingfeng’s innards, torrents of blood plasma raining down like a downpour, as his muscular demon body helplessly crashed onto the Floating Island.

His eyes wide open, staring at nothingness, his forepaws twitched a few times, seemingly even at the moment of his last breath, still trying to grasp something.

After a long time, a petite figure covered in blood staggered to stand up from the mangled flesh.

An Yi stared blankly at the corpse beneath her feet, making sure its warmth was fading rapidly, she stumbled away from the body, then lifted her cracked blood-red little face, staring blankly into the sky, her eyes returning to being clear and round, filled with a hint of confusion.

"..."

Shen Yi had no interest in discussing the meaning of life with a little girl who had just taken her revenge on a nemesis who happened to be her own father, nor in pointing her towards the future.

The Town Stone only needed to follow him, hit wherever he directed; it had no need for any of these fancy tricks.

He retracted his arms and slowly stood up, saying wearily, "We’re even now."

Upon hearing this, An Yi was silent for a long time, then bent over to bow and said softly, "Thank you, sir."

"It’s time to change how you address me."

Now that they were even, Shen Yi didn’t have to be polite to her anymore. He stepped onto the Floating Island and started to check his gains.

In front of the giant tiger corpse, two figures, one tall and one short, both dressed in similarly ink-black robes and horse-face skirts, soaked in blood, looked intimidating to anyone who saw them.

"Huff."

Shen Yi sat down cross-legged, turning his gaze towards An Yi.

He had been worried that even if he offered up the power of an entire race, he, the West Hall Master, would not be able to break through to the Heaven Realm. But now, it seemed that he had been overly concerned.

The gains from this time might be the most useful thing so far on his trip to Western Hong.

A Heaven Realm level Town Stone might have a lower limit than Immortal Law, but it could actually influence the situation in Southern Hong.

[Slain: Heaven Realm Frost Tiger with a total lifespan of 670,000 years, residual lifespan 460,000 years, absorption complete]

[Remaining Demon Lifespan: 920,000 years]

Looking at the notification that popped up on the panel, Shen Yi cocked an eyebrow.

Tsk, by the standards of the demons he had slain before, this Frost Tiger Chieftain was actually considered among the younger generation.

Demon Lifespan, the more the better.

The Immortal Brew from Shen Yue Town was just barely entry-level, and the Immortal Law obtained from Yue Tianji still hadn’t started to be cultivated. All these Cultivation Techniques were big consumers of Lifespan Years; it wasn’t just him, even those genuine cultivators at the Unity Realm Stage didn’t all have the capacity to master them.

Apart from Cultivation Techniques, the shadow that the Ten Thousand Demon Hall had previously cast over the Southern Dragon Palace during the breakthrough to Union Dao also required a great deal of Demon Lifespan to sustain.

There was also that seal which had yet to show itself, which might also be related to this matter.

However, as his strength increased, Shen Yi found that wiping out these Great Demons at the Unity Realm Stage yielded Lifespan Years much faster than before.

"Come."

Shen Yi nodded slightly, signaling to An Yi.

Apart from Wu Jun, who was not present, the remaining three Hall Masters all looked outward with differing thoughts.

Yue Tianji, as a recent addition, listening to the conversation between Ke Shisan and Yu Lan, was even more dumbfounded... What does it mean? Is the breakthrough from Earth Realm to Heaven Realm something that can be achieved with a few casual sentences?

Having spent so many years in Northern Hong, he had tasted the Elixirs and Immortal Brews bestowed by Immortals, but had never heard of such incredible things.

Why did it feel like he was the bumpkin compared to these colleagues from Western Hong and Southern Hong?

In the next moment, Shen Yi’s mind stirred slightly, and the vast tiger corpse swiftly turned into a blood sea that enveloped An Yi.

The cracks on her body were instantaneously repaired, and her skin grew increasingly delicate, while her previously pale lips gradually became rosy.

It was as if the blood energy had become so rich that she was unable to digest it.

Only when the blood sea completely merged into her stone body did these changes quietly stop.

An Yi stood silently in her spot, her rosy face turning pale again, not showing much change compared to before, except that her black hair had grown slightly longer.

However, the aura emanating from her was now much more stable than An Tingfeng’s had been.

"Hiss." Yue Tianji had occasionally pondered whether he was the strongest among the Sub-hall Masters, but when he felt that aura, he immediately withdrew his gaze, sitting in his throne with a mix of astonishment and doubt.

"Not that—"

He digested the shock in his heart for a moment before turning to the other two Hall Masters, "Why is it always her who benefits?"

Upon hearing this, Ke Shisan raised an eyebrow and offered comfortingly, "Don’t worry, your Yue Family is also a major clan, and you’ve offended our lord. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future; no need to be in a hurry."

"That sounds a bit odd." Yue Tianji’s face had just shown anticipation, and then he felt that something was off, sitting in his throne deep in thought.
