Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 431 - 430 people do not get rich without unexpected wealth

After following the orders of the Heavenly Demon Empress to involve more Heavenly Demons in the pursuit of the Mysterious Maiden, the Heavenly Demon Kings still had other plans for Zhou Bai.

Ai: "Did her majesty ask us not to intervene because she plans to deal with Zhou Bai personally?"

Xing Jun: "I don't think so. Hasn't the Empress been studying the Holy Prayer at the Mars headquarters? Is Zhou Bai really that important?"

Ji: "Could it be... We'll know if we ask again."

Shortly after, the Heavenly Demon Empress responded again.

"Do not approach him for now; I need to confirm something from him. His background may be very delicate."

"But should you encounter him by chance next time, remember four points."

"Do not look directly, do not inquire, do not speak, do not imagine."

...

Zhou Bai saw the immobile Great Heavenly Demons and, seizing the moment, charged forward. With a single slash of his sword, the Sword Qi roared through the air, slicing a truck-sized segment from the Great Heavenly Demon Gorinich.

Glancing at Wang Shouxuan and Xiao Hun, who still foolishly stood by, Zhou Bai immediately shouted, "What are you standing there dumbly for? Come and help me chop them down!"

With that, Zhou Bai slashed again, unleashing more than a dozen swordsmanship techniques. The Sword Qi crisscrossed, Thunder Fire exploded, and large chunks of the Heavenly Demon organization were blasted off.

"It's practically a gold mine."

As Zhou Bai chopped, he excitedly gathered laziness points, quickly accumulating over a hundred thousand.

On the other side, after being yelled at by Zhou Bai, Wang Shouxuan slightly startled, immediately ignored his injuries, and leapt up with his sword, casting ten thousand thunderous blows towards the conglomeration of Heavenly Demon limbs.

Wang Shouxuan's raw destructive power was even more formidable than Zhou Bai's. His swordlight whistled through the air, forming a continuous stream.

The bodies of the Heavenly Demon organization fell like rain.

Not far away, Xiao Hun watched the scene coldly. Instead of joining in, he sat down cross-legged to cultivate his spirit and slowly restore his Primordial Spirit.

Just now, struck by Zhou Bai's Disaster of Poverty and the Fool, he had plunged headfirst into the bombarding zone of the Great Heavenly Demon. Twelve of the most powerful guardian deity generals were killed, seven in total.

His own body was mangled, covered with burns and blast wounds, and his Primordial Spirit was severely damaged by the high temperature, heat, and radiation.

Xiao Hun currently retained only a fraction of his combat strength, suffering heavy losses.

Especially the guardian deity generals shattered into pieces, which had taken him countless efforts and years of frugality to craft one by one.

Now, the thought of their destruction made his heart twinge painfully, like bleeding.

"Once I slightly recover my Primordial Spirit, I'll go pick up the remnants of the War Fiend; at least that way, I can minimize some losses."

Then Xiao Hun recalled the frightening performance of the sword just now.

Unlike Wang Shouxuan, who focused on the final strike, Xiao Hun was more concerned about the strange state he found himself in just now.

He felt as mad as if plucking feathers for Zhou Bai, and the same during the last and the time before. The memory of plucking his body hair made him wince again.

"At that time, I was like a completely different person. My personality, my thoughts, they were all distorted, as if another stranger was manipulating my body."

With that thought, a chill crept up inside Xiao Hun.

Then there was that dazed feeling he had experienced for the first time.

"Just like my head was smeared with paste, all chaos, barely able to think."

The cause of these phenomena, in Xiao Hun's view, was the distorted text on the blade of the Nine Realms Flying Sword.

"Distorted… This is definitely a distortion phenomenon."

"The Nine Realms Flying Sword must have been distorted long ago, continuously spreading distortion and madness with its movement."

"I actually thought about trying to acquire such a thing. Am I unknowingly getting closer to madness? Closer to deformity?"

Thinking this, Xiao Hun became restless. "This flying sword possesses a power that distorts the mind. I better leave this place soon and report the situation to my master."

Xiao Hun felt his Primordial Spirit stabilize slightly and thus stood up, first glancing at the nearby Nine Realms Flying Sword. He noticed it seemed to crazily attack the motionless Heavenly Demon, then quickly dashed toward the location of the prior explosion.

"Hmm? Why is there nothing left?" Xiao Hun was shocked to see the ground completely clean, as though someone had swept it.

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Hun exclaimed angrily, "All gone? Where is my army of evil spirits? Why is there not even a trace of debris left?"

Just then, the ground shook, and three giant Heavenly Demons burst forth, ignoring Zhou Bai and Wang Shouxuan, who kept attacking them. They transformed into the shape of flying shuttles and prepared to retreat directly.

"They're leaving just like that? They haven't even stayed for dinner!"

Zhou Bai frowned, completely puzzled why the Heavenly Demons were retreating. They hadn't completely lost the battle yet.

But as they say, for money, humans will risk their lives; for food, birds will take flight; horses don't grow fat without night grazes, nor people wealthy without windfall profits.

Watching the giant Heavenly Demons attempting to flee, Zhou Bai immediately gave chase with his flying sword, but the colossal entities in front of him seemed like statues made of stone.

Neither Zhou Bai's words nor his writings elicited any reaction from them, as if invisible and deaf, completely oblivious to everything.

Zhou Bai managed only to strike a few more blows, slicing off a large portion of the Heavenly Demon organization before they sped up their departure.

Although Zhou Bai could easily catch up with them on his flying sword, seeing the still injured Wang Shouxuan, Xiao Hun, and the grounded Reverend Ling Miao, he sighed and stayed put, knowing many issues still remained unresolved here.

"One Xu Dela was sold by me for 500,000 laziness points, a peak seventh-level giant Heavenly Demon could probably fetch two to three million laziness points, adding one or two stars to my current foolish acquisition."

"I really want to slaughter them all."

However, even though he didn't slaughter the three giant Heavenly Demons, after a bout of hacking and selling, along with the spoils from Xu Dela, Zhou Bai's laziness points had reached 1.2 million.

Watching the three giant Heavenly Demons accelerate, quickly shrinking to tiny black dots and disappearing into the sky, Zhou Bai sighed and turned his eyes toward Xiao Hun and Reverend Ling Miao.

Just then, not far away, the cocoon formed by Reverend Ling Miao suddenly burst open.

The figure of Reverend Ling Miao changed again; the bone blades that had formed his limbs disappeared, replaced by blades of red crystal, emitting a more dangerous aura.

At the moment everyone braced themselves against Reverend Ling Miao, a masked man in a black robe descended from the sky, first glancing at Reverend Ling Miao then turning his eyes toward Zhou Bai, his gaze revealing a hint of amusement.

The man lightly said, "Don't move rashly now, you all are too weak. Moving carelessly could easily get you crushed."

Zhou Bai stared intensely at the black-robed man in front of him, whose body was enveloped in a surge of azure luck.

It was a blessing from the heavens.
