Apotheosis

Witnessing the death of the Ghost Scorpion, the members of the Fragrant Butterfly race took on a ghastly expression.

They had relied on the Ghost Scorpion, king of the underground world in the northern part of the Myriad Spirits City. Massive change was bound to happen due to his sudden death.

Overwhelmed with anxiety, they froze in place, unable to even consider fleeing.

The Souls of Light on the terrace of the oval-shaped building were also dumbfounded.

"The Ghost Scorpion is actually weak?"

"That man is too powerful. The Ghost Scorpion was no match for him..."

"Alas, I made a wrong judgment before. I have to go back to report this."

These Souls of Light had stayed to watch Thad and Elvinia die. They had thought that their demise was certain, so the unexpected turn of events shocked them numb.

"Buzz..."

A demon woman disappeared from the terrace and returned to the Source World.

The demon women were not staying in the Divine Lair all the time. Most of the time, they lived in golden divine trees. When the demon woman appeared in a golden divine tree, she spread out her wings and flew towards the Divine Lair.

At the sight of the flying figure, the Sun Crows rose high into the air and squawked excitedly.

Upon the arrival of the demon woman, she knelt before Elizabeth.

"The Ghost Scorpion at Stage Fourteen was easily killed by the man named Thad?" Elizabeth clarified.

"Yes, he had no power to fight back," the demon woman answered, head still bowed.

Even though she had witnessed the whole thing with her own eyes, she still couldn't believe it.

"I see." Elizabeth nodded calmly. "The Ghost Scorpion is just an unimportant pawn, anyway. Don't worry. Continue observing. Someone else will fight Thad."

The creatures at Stage Fourteen were the weakest in the entire Desire World. It didn't matter even if they failed.

However, something bugged Elizabeth.

It was very likely that Thad was actually Zen. Although Elizabeth hadn't been able to confirm it, it didn't matter. As long as she could get rid of Thad and Elvinia, she would be willing to pay the price.

Spreading out her massive wings, she closed her eyes and transferred to the Other Shore

r Mouse left quickly.

Zen indifferently glanced at the women from the Fragrant Butterfly race not far away, who had tried to attack him with poison just now.

However, he knew they were powerless against him, especially since the Ghost Scorpion was killed. He waved his hand at them and said, "You can go now."

The women trembled slightly as Zen addressed them.

They had been standing there, not daring to run away.

To their surprise, Zen just asked them to leave like that.

They couldn't believe their ears.

Once Zen finished his words, he immediately turned around and walked straight towards Elvinia. Unexpectedly, Elvinia cracked a smirk and joked, "Those women are beautiful. Take them back!"

"What? Since when did you make jokes?" Zen raised an eyebrow amusedly.

Elvinia's cheeks flushed.

It was true that she had become quite cheerful in the past six months.

Sometimes, she'd just blurt out something without thinking first.

It suddenly dawned on the women of the Fragrant Butterfly race that Zen truly didn't have any intention to deal with them, so they heaved a sigh of relief. Fluttering their wings, they prepared to flee.

Just as they took off, they heard something whistling through the air.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

All of a sudden, sharp green arrows rained from out of nowhere, piercing the women's wings and bodies.

In the blink of an eye, the several beautiful women had been shot ruthlessly by countless sharp arrows.
