The Ancient Realm Goddess
Devil's Hole
Mo Jingtian was silent as she continued to stare at Qing Yue’er. He had been dragged towards the Niu Longhao residence because the girl did not want him to be left alone and kill someone again. So, now he just kept quiet and enjoyed the beauty beside him.
Qing Yue’er on the other hand tried to ignore the man. He continued talking about the demon holes with Niu Longhao. The head of the academy was more knowledgeable about the ins and outs of Tongxuan realm than he knew.
“Xinyu, from the map you showed me, the most difficult region is this western part.” Niu Longhao pointed to the red dot in Western Tongxuan. “There are volcanoes that often erupt here. A little battle alone will make this volcano affected.”
“What is a large volcano?”
“Yes. If it explodes, most of Western Tongxuan will be destroyed,” Niu Longhao said seriously. “If you want to close the demon hole opened there, you must not make a meaningful battle.”
Qing Yue’er frowned. Suddenly Mo Jingtian said, “The people there have already become the devil's food. It doesn't matter if it explodes.”
Niu Longhao was surprised to hear that. “Although no one lives there already, it would be better if Tongxuan West remained intact right?”
“The head of the academy is right.” Qing Yue’er squinted her eyes at Mo Jingtian. “I won't let you talk!”
Mo Jingtian held back a smile. He looked up at her face while looking at the girl. “Good.”
Qing Yue’er coughed. He looked at Niu Longhao seriously. “So this has been decided. I'll start tomorrow. But I'll just close those demon holes.”
“That's no problem. Let us overcome the demons that roam the houses of the people. We're so grateful that you're willing to help overcome those demon holes.”
Niu Ren who was also there nodded in agreement with his father. “True. If the hole is not closed and sealed, no matter how many troops we gather, the demons will never end up coming from the underworld. Thank you very much.”
Qing Yue’er smiled. “That's what I should do.”
Suddenly Niu Longhao asked, “Omong-by the way, what just happened? The sound of the explosion ...”
Qing Yue’er cleared her throat. He hesitated to say it. What if the people here did not accept the deaths of Chi Yuntian and Dongfang Gu? They would probably antagonize Mo Jingtian.
However, if the deaths of the two elders were not immediately notified, it was also not the right thing. The dead have always been respected. It would be an insult if no death ceremony was performed by anyone.
“It was an accidental mistake,” Qing Yue’er said softly.
“What error is it that could cause such a powerful explosion?”
“Maybe it would be better if you checked it yourself.” Mo Jingtian said casually.
Niu Longhao became curious, but hesitated to check it out immediately. He looked at Qing Yue’er and the girl nodded in agreement with Mo Jingtian.
Finally the old man nodded. “Good. Come let me see that.”
He was about to walk out of the room when Qing Yue’er's voice interrupted him. “Academy Head, but I have to tell you one thing.”
“What is it?”
“Mm. Don't surprise. It really wasn't Mo Jingtian's fault. This person will not act if others do not make trouble,” Qing Yue’er said carefully.
Niu Longhao frowned skeptically. He became more and more curious about what had happened. He immediately left, followed by Niu Ren who was also curious. They believe the explosion was not an ordinary explosion and may have also attracted the attention of many people.
In an instant, they arrived at the backyard of the Qing Yue’er residence. There they saw Han Qiong who was standing in silence. The old man looked surprised by what he saw.
“Teacher Han, why are you so surprised?” Niu Longhao asked. He then looked at the situation there. And as a result he became as surprised as Han Qiong. His mouth is wide open.
“That Chi Yuntian and Dongfang Gu. See this.” Han Qiong took out a torn piece of cloth. There is a very small embroidery of their surnames.
“How can they die?”
Niu Ren became very surprised. He thought the explosion had arisen because of the battle, because the two forces were colliding with each other. But that's not it. The explosion happened because someone's body had indeed exploded to pieces. It was a cruel unceremonious death.
Finally now Niu Ren and Niu Longhao understood with the words Qing Yue’er. The girl asked them not to be surprised because Chi Yuntian and Dongfang Gu had been killed that way. But how could they not be surprised?
“Who did this? Is that Xinyu? But isn't he with you?” Han Qiong asked in confusion. He doesn't know the truth yet.
“Not the girl.” Niu Longhao shook his head while sighing. “It was Young Master Mo.”
“What?” Han Qiong was again taken aback. His expression immediately turned irritated. “See! I thought that girl was cruel enough. It turns out that he has a partner who is not much different. Aren't they just going to become increasingly uncontrollable?!”
“It's surprising. The man did not look like he had power. Could I have misjudged?” Niu Ren asked as he stroked his chin. His assessment of Mo Jingtian began to undergo changes.
“Forget it. We better take care of the deaths of Chi Yuntian and Dongfang Gu first.”
Niu Longhao immediately ordered his son to tell the other elders about this news. Meanwhile he helped Han Qiong take care of the remains of the two elders' already destroyed bodies.
Everyone is busy with various things tonight. Some elders held ceremonies for the deaths of Chi Yuntian and Dongfang Gu. Some of the rest are preparing an army to eradicate the demons.
Qing Yue’er herself did not want to be bothered. He did a full night's meditation. When the morning sun appeared, he finally left the Heavenly Academy secretly with Mo Jingtian. They would not look for him because Niu Longhao already knew about his plan.
The first place they visited was Southern Tongxuan. Qing Yue’er was not so familiar with the area. However, Mo Jingtian knew about it. The man almost knew every place on the Tongxuan continent.
The flying sword that Qing Yue rode’er and Mo Jingtian stopped above a long river. From up there they could see the filthy banks of the river polluted by the bones and remains of the human body. The flowing water was a deep red color as it was mixed with blood.
Qing Yue’er who saw it instantly frowned. “How many humans have become the food of the devil? It's too much.”
“It indeed must be terminated immediately.” Mo Jingtian stared down coldly. “That demon hole won't be far from here. Continue to south.”
Without waiting any longer Qing Yue’er immediately moved her flying sword south. Mo Jingtian was behind him. With his cultivation sealed, the man could not fly, so he had to take him.
A while later, they finally started to see the demons working. They are not perfect yet, they are not yet human. That means they are only low-class demons.
Qing Yue’er swept her hands in one move. The sounds of successive explosions were instantly heard. The places where the demons were located had exploded to the point of throwing those ugly creatures in all directions.
The sound of screaming and growling instantly echoed. Qing Yue’er paid no heed to that and went back to doing the same. Along the way, he continued to create explosions in various places. Fortunately, this area is a forest that is not inhabited by humans. So, he didn't have to worry about anything.
Mo Jingtian at the back simply smiled as an observer. He was quite satisfied with Qing Yue’er's strength. However, before returning to the Celestial, he wished that the girl had already entered the silver spirit level in order to reach the will of heaven.
“That's no front,” Mo Jingtian said later.
Not far from their current position, there was a hole in the ground that was quite large. Its diameter reaches 9 feet. There was faintly a red light within it as well as the wild sounds of cheers from the demons within.
A cold smile appeared on Qing Yue’er's lips. “Being a god of death may not be an easy thing. However, being a god of death for those demons was by no means a difficult thing.”
After which, his flying sword instantly shot out as fast as lightning towards that demon hole.
