Xu Hei raised his palm, his expression indifferent, devoid of joy or sorrow.
During their ti together, Xu Hei often engaged her in conversation, extracting all the information he wanted to know.
The seven deities, the eight great demon clans, the three royal families, and so on, including map distributions, racial characteristics, and the features and appearances of each Divine Transformation Ancestor, he had thoroughly grasped them all.
In other words, this woman had lost her value.
Now, only one last value remained.
"Once I refine you, with the power of your Divine Transformation Stage primordial spirit, it should be enough to heal my injuries," Xu Hei thought to himself.
This woman was already gravely injured, and Xu Hei had saved her life. Even with a fourth-tier pill, it would take her at least ten years to recover.
And giving her a precious fifth-tier pill would be a waste; it was better to keep it for himself.
Moreover, keeping her around was a risk. Who knows if she had so kind of mark on her that would lead the Sea Star Demon Clan to them? Even though Xu Hei had taken all her belongings, it's better to be safe than sorry.
This was the conclusion Xu Hei had reached after much consideration.
A cold glint flashed in Xu Hei's eyes, and he clenched his palm, ready to activate the Demon God Cauldron.
But just then, Xu Hei's gaze inadvertently fell on the purple robe in his hand.
This item was hand-sewn by her, with dragon and phoenix patterns, clouds swirling all over. In the mortal world, it would be considered a fine piece of clothing.
Apart from his white robe, Xu Hei had never worn anything else.
Looking again at Yu Shiyu's innocent smile, it seed she was still waiting for the surprise Xu Hei had prepared for her.
Xu Hei suddenly hesitated.
"This woman has not wronged , she has helped in every way, unguarded, revealing all information. If I kill her like this, wouldn't I be a heartless scoundrel?"
"But this woman is an enemy, a foreigner from the Sea Star Clan, keeping her is too risky, the enemy could track us down at any mont."
"Killing her could help heal faster."
"......"
Xu Hei reconsidered the questions he had pondered before, weighing the pros and cons, yet still found it difficult to make a decision.
Xu Hei was ultimately not Tu Sen; he still had a bottom line.
Suddenly, his Divine Sense swept over the purple robe in his hand, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes, the hesitation on his face vanished.
A monstrous killing intent surged within Xu Hei.
"Vile woman, you actually tried to harm !"
Xu Hei suddenly realized there was sothing wrong with this purple robe. If he wore it, the threads would pierce through him, shattering him to pieces!
No wonder this woman's injuries never healed; she had been exhausting her mind and spirit to craft such a hidden weapon.
So cunning, was her previous innocence all an act? Just waiting for him to fall into the trap at this mont? The more Xu Hei thought about it, the angrier he beca.
Imdiately, Xu Hei no longer hesitated, and the Demon God Cauldron was activated with force.
"Can you tell your na?"
Yu Shiyu suddenly spoke softly.
Xu Hei was montarily stunned, but said nothing, pressing his palm down instantly.
"Boom!!!"
…………
Beyond the continent.
Two ghostly blue figures were speeding through the sea, rapidly approaching the continent.
Strangely, to the naked eye, there was nothing to be seen; the seawater remained seawater, the waves still calm. Only those who had reached the Divine Transformation Stage could faintly sense a trace of aura fluctuation.
These two figures were Gong Tianlei of the rman Clan and the Ancestor of the Frogman Clan, Yuantai.
Gong Tianlei had just entered the Divine Transformation Stage, a young junior with a promising future. Yuantai, however, was an old Divine Transformation cultivator, said to have reached the peak of the early stage, not far from the mid-stage, with extrely formidable strength, a main combat force of the Sea Star Demon Clan.
This duo could walk sideways on the Sea Star.
At this mont, Gong Tianlei held a burning fish scale, sensing it carefully, and stopped at the edge of the continent.
"Is it here?"
Yuantai raised an eyebrow, his bulging frog eyes flashing with a strange light.
"If my senses are correct, Yu Shiyu is hiding here," Gong Tianlei said in a deep voice. "For the past month, her soul fluctuations have been intermittent, clearly suppressing them deliberately! She's intentionally concealing her whereabouts, most likely she's already defected!"
Yuantai nodded slightly, coldly saying, "If that's the case, then we'll kill her too!"
For those nurtured in the culture of the Divine Continent Star from a young age, they were never particularly trusted, having long prepared for this.
Fortunately, this woman's combat power was at the bottom among the Divine Transformation, unable to learn to kill, single-minded, not believing in deities, without any Divine Abilities, posing no threat.
Upon hearing this, Gong Tianlei's eyes flashed with hesitation. He stopped Yuantai, saying, "Ancestor Yuantai, could we..."
"I know what you're thinking." Yuantai glanced back, coldly saying, "This is a war between two planets, do you think it's child's play?"
Gong Tianlei lowered his head in silence.
"In tis of peace, you can be rciful, but in tis of war, your montary rcy could doom our entire demon clan. Billions of lives could die because of your montary softness!"
"Have you considered this cost?" Yuantai's voice was calm, not scolding, just gently stating a fact.
Gong Tianlei gritted his teeth, his fists slowly clenching, his body trembling.
"With the Water God above, slaying traitors is our duty, this is the guidance of the deity!" Yuantai left a sentence, then flew towards the depths of the continent.
"The guidance of the deity!" Gong Tianlei raised his head, holding the burning fish scale, flying forward.
…………
In a courtyard in Yage City.
"Boom!!"
A surging devouring force spread out, and under the full activation of the Demon God Cauldron, Yu Shiyu's unguarded body began to dissolve at a terrifying speed. Her physical body lted, her primordial spirit being refined, turning into pure soul power, absorbed by Xu Hei into his body.
Xu Hei could feel his injured primordial spirit rapidly healing.
"Truly the primordial spirit of a Divine Transformation cultivator, a great supplent! This is the law of heaven, only by devouring sothing of the sa level can one repair a body of the sa level!" Xu Hei thought to himself.
His guess was correct.
What fifth-tier Spirit dicine, fifth-tier Pill, all fell short. The best tonic was a cultivator of the sa realm! If pills were useful, why not rely on them to break through? Why kill others?
Once, Xu Hei had hesitated.
But this was war, not child's play.
He couldn't gamble with his life. If he died, Xu Hei had no doubt, more people on the Divine Continent Star would die.
War was cruel, the number of innocent dead countless, no right or wrong, only positions!
"Hmm? Why isn't she resisting?"
Xu Hei was imrsed in the pleasure of his primordial spirit's repair, but suddenly, he realized a problem.
Yu Shiyu didn't resist at all.
She just sat quietly in the Demon God Cauldron, waiting for her primordial spirit to be refined, her body to be absorbed.
She looked at him, her eyes filled with complex emotions, a hint of a smile, a touch of relief, and a trace of regret.
From beginning to end, she hadn't asked Xu Hei even a single question.
Not even his na.
Until the end, she asked that one question, but the response she got was only cold indifference.
After a long ti, a tear slid down from the corner of her eye, yet she still wore a beautiful, sorrowful smile, gazing at Xu Hei with deep affection.
Just watching, watching, as if trying to imprint his disguised face deep into her mory.
