Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

......

Having completed the dissolution of the contract, Ye Ge returned the Holy Soul to Liu Ying.

Liu Ying let out a muffled groan, her body convulsing slightly. Then, the feeling of weakness receded like a tide, and her strength began to slowly but steadily return. She leaned against a cool, large rock, her body drenched in fragrant sweat, and breathed heavily as she rested.

Night Song stood up, waved to the two succubus women guarding nearby who had been captured and brought over to take care of the empress, and then walked aside to think quietly.

'Plant seeds within Crimson Dragon City to lure away the Allied Forces of All Races, unleash the Ancient Mysterious Mist Array to buy them time, and then infiltrate Crimson Dragon City under the cover of darkness...'

'Given Sima Qing's character, the fact that he went to such lengths to arrange this scheme shows that he must be quite confident in opening the door to the Azure Dragon Treasure.'

Ye Ge narrowed his eyes.

'No matter what, we must not let him obtain the power of the laws within the sealed land of the Azure Dragon Treasure!'

We have to stop him...

"Night Song!" At this moment, Nangong Qiuyue walked up from behind and said excitedly, "Teacher Cangfeng has confirmed the precise coordinates of the array core!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Ge nodded slightly: "Very good."

"Shall we destroy it now?" Nangong Qiuyue asked eagerly.

Night Song: "Wait."

"I just observed that this ancient composite formation has four interconnected array eyes in the east, west, south, and north, and their energy is integrated, so it needs to be destroyed at all four corners at the same time."

"I just received news from Xue'er, Xiao Ying, and Sister Qingxin. They have all dealt with their enemies and found the core of the formation."

"I'll contact Xue'er and the others right now and we'll destroy the array's core together."

......

The tricky part of the Misty Mist Array is not only that it can severely interfere with mental energy detection, but also that it can distort and obscure almost all forms of long-distance communication.

Whether it's a secret technique that relies on soul fluctuations for sound transmission or modern equipment that relies on electromagnetic signals, both will become completely ineffective under the cover of this dense purple mist.

However, to truly break the formation, those scattered across the four corners of the vast plain must destroy their respective target array points simultaneously. Without communication between them, it is virtually impossible to destroy the array points at the same time.

This is one of the reasons why this mysterious fog formation is so difficult to break.

However, this restriction, which was virtually unsolvable for others, didn't really matter to Ye Ge and his group...

Far beyond the Crimson Plains, inside the Human Fortress armored vehicle at the Allied Forces headquarters.

One of the control cabins is filled with sophisticated instruments and has soft lighting.

Night Song's true form was sitting quietly in the specially designed cockpit. He wore a streamlined immersive VR headset, and his body was covered with complex sensor nodes. He seemed to be immersed in an invisible force field, as if he were playing a VR online game in his previous life's virtual world.

However, upon closer inspection, one can discover extremely subtle and mysterious energy patterns flowing on the helmet and sensing devices, closely resonating with his own soul power fluctuations.

Inside the carriage, Ququ, Yezi, and Bingxin stood silently in a triangular formation, protecting each other.

Their eyes frequently swept across the various physiological parameters and energy readings on the control panel screens to ensure a stable connection.

After all, if the main body is left here, it will definitely need a few experts to protect it.

“Ququ”.

At this moment, Ye Ge suddenly spoke, her voice clearly transmitted through the internal instruments.

Upon hearing this, Ququ immediately went up to him: "Night Song? I'm here. Have you broken free from the control of the puppet machine?"

“No, no,” Ye Ge said. “I can’t leave the machine right now, otherwise the connection with the puppet will be severed. Go tell Xue’er, Xiao Ying, and Qing Xin to prepare to destroy the core of the Mysterious Mist Array together.”

Ququ nodded and said earnestly, "Okay."

......

Crimson plains, southern forests.

Ye Ge knelt on one knee, one palm down, gently pressing on the slightly damp soil, his eyes closed, as if sensing the surging array veins deep within the earth.

A moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them, and his clear voice echoed throughout the surroundings:

"Count down thirty times, and destroy the array's core at the same time."

"Yao Yao."

"understand!"

Xia Xiyao nodded vigorously, her little face full of seriousness.

She gracefully rose again, flying high into the sky. She clasped her hands together in front of her chest with a "slap," and the fierce and chaotic energy around her began to gather and compress with unprecedented intensity. Four enormous chaotic hands manifested behind her, the energy in their palms surging rapidly and emitting a heart-palpitating fluctuation.

"Everyone else, disperse." Ye Ge glanced around out of the corner of her eye: "Be careful not to accidentally hurt any of you."

Upon hearing this, Ye Bing, Yan Ji, Nangong Qiuyue, Nangong Ru, Cang Feng, Arthur, and a group of soldiers from the Myriad Races Alliance immediately took to the air and quickly retreated to a safe distance of more than a thousand meters.

Night Song: "Twenty, nineteen, eighteen..."

"Nine, eight, seven..."

"Two, one, zero."

"Destroy the array's core!"

"Fierce and malevolent—Chaos Wave!"

High in the sky, Xia Xiyao let out a delicate shout and pressed her clasped hands down sharply!

The chaotic energy sphere, which had been poised to strike, was like a black meteorite that tore through the air and crashed down toward the precise coordinates indicated by Night Song below—that seemingly ordinary forest clearing!

"Boom--!"

A terrifying roar, so deep and muffled it seemed as if the earth's belly was being forcibly torn apart!

The moment the black energy sphere touched the ground, there was no fire, only endless, deep darkness expanding outwards, then transforming into a violent chaotic torrent that surged wildly into the earth!

The solid ground arched upwards and shattered like a fragile eggshell, instantly forming a huge crater tens of meters in diameter. The soil and rocks at the edges turned to dust under the distorted spatial force!

......

Meanwhile, the eastern, northern, and western parts of the Crimson Plains.

Gao Shenxue, Long Ying, and Ye Qingxin also unleashed their most aggressive skills at the same time.

“BOOM ...

Four attacks, each with a distinct nature but all containing the same destructive power, erupted simultaneously in the four corners of the Crimson Plain!

......

Happy New Year everyone! ~o(*￣▽￣*)ブ
