At the peak of the light, each figure stood with a black robe in their body.

The barrier that formed the dome earlier suddenly disappeared along with the explosive sound that had just been heard.

​​

Even the strange creatures that Wan Lie, Ju Xian, and Xue Ning faced disappeared in an instant. Leaving confusion on the three people.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Gu Yi who saw the three black-robed figures were not just silent. Immediately his hands moved again and seconds later the three figures at the top of the pillar of light enlarged at a speed that could not be seen by the eye.

DDUAAARRRR...

Their bodies exploded in that instant.

At the same time, a rune suddenly appeared on the ground, continuously popping up to fill the area around the tower.

It only lasted for a moment, slowly the runes faded and disappeared in an instant.

Fu Xie Lan who was standing in the distance stared in amazement at the scene before her.

Again the same question appeared in her mind.

Who exactly is that man?

"The evil energy is gone, Miss," Hao suddenly spoke making the girl turn to him.

"Does that mean I can go there already?"

Hearing that, Hao responded with a nod.

***

"What was that?" asked Xue Ning froze on the spot.

Her eyes were still staring at the runes that had previously filled the ground, including the part she was stepping on.

As for Ju Xian, the young man immediately fell to the ground with a sigh of relief.

"Are you all right?" Wan Lie landed behind Xue Ning and Ju Xian.

The girl turned to the source of the voice and nodded.

Wan Lie who saw the response of the two people also felt relieved. I don't know since when he felt this close to someone other than his mother.

"The magic is gone," Wan Lie said later.

"And the ball of light is gone too," he continued, looking up at the top of the tower.

Ju Xian and Xue Ning did the same.

"Are you all right?" Fu Xie Lan suddenly appeared among the three of them.

Wan Lie and the other two turned to the source of the voice.

"As you can see, Xie Lan," Xue Ning replied immediately.

Suddenly a black shadow shot swiftly towards Fu Xie Lan.

BOOM

Another explosion occurred, startling everyone.

Seeing the origin of the explosion, there right behind Fu Xie Lan, Gu Yi was beating up a man.

"Stop!" shouted Fu Xie Lan.

Immediately Gu Yi stopped his actions and approached Fu Xie Lan.

"Don't touch her or you will die!" Gu Yi said coldly looking at the man.

Previously he saw the man carrying Fu Xie Lan and it made him furious.

"I'm sorry, Master," said the man trying to get up from his position.

"Tch...."

"Don't scare him like that," said Fu Xie Lan turning to Gu Yi who was already beside her.

Gu Yi didn't respond, his expression was really cold and scary. While Hao, the man looked down not daring to lift his gaze.

Suddenly two male figures reappeared. They are bodyguards Bai, Bai Mo, and Bai Xue.

"How?" Gu Yi's cold voice sounded again.

"Safe, Master," the two men replied almost simultaneously. The reason the two of them didn't help earlier was that they had orders to inspect the entire area around the tower.

The whereabouts of the three black-robed figures earlier were also discovered by the two bodyguards.

If their guess was correct, the three black-robed figures were the guardians of the tower in front of them right now.

Hearing the words of the two bodyguards, Gu Yi turned to face the tower.

The light on the crystal ball at the top of the tower slowly dimmed, and the skeleton of the snake that was there also shrank.

"You guys stay away from here," Gu Yi said coldly.

One of Fu Xie Lan's eyebrows rose, "Did something happen?" she asked.

"Don't you want to destroy this tower? Now leave it to me. You guys stay away," he replied softly to the girl, and seconds later his jet black wings seemed majestically across his back.

Flying high with his black cloak fluttering against the cardinal directions.

Seeing that, everyone immediately got up, moving away from there.

DDUUAAARRRR...

Suddenly everyone looked back, they hadn't even reached where they were going, and another huge explosion occurred.

immediately a dazzling light lit up the whole place, at the same time the wind blew so hard, creating a deafening roar. Even Ju Xian and Xue Ning were almost fallen away if Wan Lie didn't hold their bodies back soon.

Tried to see what was going on in that place but to no avail. The glare blocked their view.

It lasted a few minutes and the light slowly dimmed. Leaving such a terrible sight.

No more towers, no more green trees, everything turned into a giant hole in an instant. As far as the eye could see there was only empty land with the color of the ground turning black.

Gu Yi still standing in the air, gazing arrogantly at the scene below.

Ju Xian and Xue Ning were dumbfounded as if the souls in their bodies were out of place.

What did they just see?

Even a tier-three mage was incapable of creating such an explosion.

Bodyguard Bai Xue who saw the people's expressions smiled, a feeling of pride in him. It was only a small part of the power of the Ruler.

What would they think when they found out that the man who had always been with them was Lord Gu Yi, the last Demon, ruler of the Artland World?

.

.

.

Standing in place until the rumbling died down, a sigh of relief sounded almost simultaneously from everyone.

"The matter here is finished," Fu Xie Lan muttered.

Xue Ning who heard Fu Xie Lan's words collapsed to the ground. Sit with both legs to be straightened.

So did Ju Xian. The wounds on their bodies were just felt.

The aches and pains made Xue Ning whimper in pain. Whereas before, she had not felt this pain.

Fu Xie Lan who saw the two of them immediately reached into her cosmic bag and took out a small porcelain bottle filled with pills that only had a few seeds left.

"Take it and have a drink," said Fu Xie Lan, handing the two pills. She was not very well aware of the injuries that Ju Xian and Xue Ning had suffered.

"This is for you," she said again turning to face Wan Lie.

"My body is fine now, Xie Lan. I don't need the pill," Wan Lie replied.

"It's okay, have a drink. Just in case."

Wan Lie who heard this was very happy, without waiting long, he immediately received the pill.

"Okay, thanks," he said then put the pill into his cosmic bag.

One of Fu Xie Lan's eyebrows raised, "What are you doing?"

"Keeping it as a keepsake," Wan Lie smiled back.

"I gave you those pills not to be abused," said Fu Xie Lan with a sigh of breath.

"I'm fine, Xie Lan," Wan Lie reassured.

"Me too, honey," Gu Yi suddenly appeared and embraced Fu Xie Lan's body from the side.
