Devil's Son-in-Law

The girl in the flames had a blue pupil on the right eye. Although it was as deep as an abyss, it gave people a feeling of ‘emptiness’, while the pupil of the left eye was blood red with a surging breath.

In the eyes of the man in a cloak, the danger contained in this eye was tens of millions of times stronger than the eruption of the entire Nightmare Volcano!

The woman walked toward the man in the cloak step by step as if stepping on invisible stairs. With each step, the golden pattern on her body became lighter, and the cracks on the ground beside the man in the cloak became deeper. The hand holding the withered wood crutch became tighter due to the pressure of some force, and his blood kept dripping into those cracks and emitted a bloody light full of destructive breath as if it was under some kind of summon.

When she walked to the opposite side, her skin was already the same as that of ordinary people, looking crystal clear. The fluttering fiery red hair gradually returned to blue, and the burning flames in the left eye converged into the pupil. There was only faint bleeding, and the blue right pupil became more and more hollow.

She was wearing a golden-red armor, and the cloak on her back was fluttering in the flames. She had an enchanting beauty like a witch walking out of the abyss.

The whole body of the man in the cloak was trembling extremely violently, and blood marks appeared on his skin, but those eyes were still as calm as the night sky.

“You actually…” Compared with the scorching heat and suffocation around, the woman’s voice was like the cold wind from the ice prison, revealing the coldness that froze the soul, “Wake me up!”

As soon as this sentence came out, the man in a cloak smiled. This smile caused his bloody mouth to horrifyingly crack at the corner of his lips, but he still didn’t care. The laughter grew louder, revealing a dash of madness that was completely opposite to the usual wisdom.

Lava splashed, and lightning flashed. In the center of the bloody cloud in the sky, the diamond shape began to glow with a faint brilliance.

The sky over Dark Moon Estate was covered with dense clouds, and lightning flashed from time to time.

Chen Rui looked at the sky. For some reason, a sense of restlessness in his mind became stronger.

“Waa waa waa…”

The cry of the child diverted his attention. It was Little Doudou.

During these days, Little Doudou was the core figure of the entire courtyard. Even the original Little Princess Duoduo’s priority had dropped by 1 level, ranking after Doudou.

But the sensible Darling Duoduo didn’t care about these things. Instead, she offered to take care of her younger brother and bring him to play the game of ‘Angry Bird’ when he grew up. The aunts in the yard repeatedly praised Duoduo for being understanding and ignored the last half of the sentence. The unscrupulous father whose soft flesh around his waist was pinched and twisted 360 degree by several hands at the same time.

After the full moon, Doudou looked more pink and cute. Sometimes he would make some sounds unconsciously. Occasionally, words like ‘mommy’ or ‘daddy’ could make the yard burst into laughter, which also made the haze in Chen Rui’s mind diluted a lot.

“Athena, Kia.”

“Chen Rui, what’s wrong with Doudou recently? He kept crying and didn’t sleep all night last night.” Athena held the child. Her tired red eyes were full of anxiety. Little Doudou seemed to be in a bad state these days. The frequency of crying increased significantly. The first nanny Kia on the side also looked worried. Although only Catherine and Athena became mommy among the crystal harem ladies, everyone loved Doudou and Duoduo equally.

“I don’t know.” Chen Rui carefully sensed Doudou’s physical condition, but he found that there was no abnormal symptom.

“If only Python was still here…” Kia whispered.

Python left when the ‘door’ appeared last time, and she had been missing since. Not only Chen Rui, but everyone else felt like something was missing.

Train together in the Ghastly Floating Land, guide and promote the growth of everyone, join hands to deal with Sariel, and go to the Holy Light Mountain together…

In the minds of everyone, perhaps they had long agreed with the change of her position from the former ‘enemy’ to the current ‘friend’.

Nobody knew if she herself knew that.

Finally, Athena and Kia coaxed Doudou to sleep.

“Gerant’s army should have reached the Golden Estate by now…” Chen Rui sighed.

This battle had long been known to the Demon Realm. All the people and the media were paying attention to the battlefield. Even a battlefield reporter was broadcasting it live.

In order to prepare for this battle, the army of demons had been practicing tactics with the help of magic items these days. At the same time, they were adapting to the combat power in the light element environment.

In the 3 empires’ alliance, many empire elders proposed to let the ‘ancient guardian’ army that appeared last time in the Fallen Angel Empire military parade take part in the battle.

Unfortunately, ‘Aguile’ who was in charge of this huge force ‘disappeared’ at this critical moment.

In fact, Chen Rui knew very well that if the ancient alchemy civilization army of the ‘City of Stars’ was really dispatched, together with the undead army of Guradam and the military strength of the Demon Realm itself, this battle could easily crush the Human Coalition Army.

With his current strength, he could join any side and change the entire battle situation. He could even form a ‘faction’ of his own, standing on par with the strength of the 2 worlds. However, as an insider of the truth of the war between the 2 worlds and the ‘human’ of the Demon Realm, Chen Rui could only choose to stay out of it.

“Yes.” Hearing him mentioning it with initiative, Athena answered.

In fact, everyone understood Chen Rui’s mood, so they had deliberately avoided this topic recently.

“Even without the inside story of the sacrifice, war with a selfish nature is still unavoidable.” Isabella’s voice sounded faintly from behind, “Even if you can let peace come briefly by yourself, you cannot fundamentally eliminate war.”

“I’m not that noble.” Chen Rui shook his head, “It’s just…”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly sensed the faint light of the Tree of Nature in the Super System as a special spirit power spread.

Chen Rui originally wanted to activate the power to suppress it, but he hesitated for a while when he thought of the uneasy feeling in his mind recently. He just channeled the Star Power to protect his soul and let that spirit power wrap him.

In an instant, he only felt that the shadows of Athena and others became blurred. The space changed, and a blood-red scene appeared in front of him.

The lava flowing around, the crimson sky, and the blood-colored lightning. Even an audience with only vision and hearing could feel the oppressive suffocation and scorching heat of this scene.

It’s not an illusion, but some kind of real image transmitted by the Tree of Nature!

This familiar scene…

Chen Rui looked in amazement at the eye-like diamond shape in the bloody cloud in the sky. When he looked downward, his gaze was fixed on the 2 figures in the center of the blood-red world.

That precarious figure wearing a cloak and holding a wooden crutch and with half a human face and half a monster, was the disappearing legendary prophet of the elf tribe, Alucier.

Alucier left the Psychedelic Forest, where he was unable to leave, and his whereabouts are unknown. Unexpectedly, he appeared in this place. Where… is this place?

That female figure in flames opposite Alucier…

Chen Rui’s pupils suddenly constricted.

That face!

Blue and red pupils!

It is actually her!

She is not dead!

How could she be with Alucier? Why does she look like that?

Is it another space or… it’s in this world?

“‘Awakening’? That’s right.” Alucier’s cloak revealed terrifying scars on his skin, but he was smiling. “To be more precise, it should be called ‘hasten birth’…”

“Stupid servant of fate, you know that it is inevitable, but you still desperately want to change.” The woman’s eyes repeatedly looked at Alucier’s bloody face like a blade, and she said contemptuously, “Do you think that by using the residual power of curse to unlock the authority enchantment of the main plane and letting the destruction descend in an incomplete form in advance, you can change the trajectory of fate?”

Chen Rui could clearly hear the conversation between the 2. The woman’s words shocked him like thunder, even surpassing the shock of the woman’s ‘resurrection’.

The ‘sacrifice’ that occurs every 500 years suddenly appeared more than 100 years earlier than usual. This caused panic in both worlds, and it also caused this war that required the death of countless lives. It was actually directed by Alucier!

What frightened Chen Rui the most was the sentence ‘unlock the enchantment, let the destruction descend in advance’!

The enchantment that resisted the Abyss and protected the main plane for an unknown number of years is actually unlocked by the elf prophet Alucier!

This means…

The Abyss has come to the main plane!

Chen Rui couldn’t believe it. The terrifying event that he thought would be tens of thousands, or even a long time later, was actually happening now!

His first reaction was: Alucier is crazy!

“It’s a pity, even if I don’t descend in a complete form, the result will not change in any way. What you risked your life to change is only the time and the method.” The woman showed a cold and cruel smile. Alucier’s trembling became stronger while the ground under his feet was completely cracked under the intangible terrifying pressure, “The world you live in, everything you love, will lose the last chance to survive because of your stupidity. They will be completely destroyed and devoured in advance”

Alucier’s smile had returned to indifference, “Perhaps.”

“Perhaps? Do you think that these weak ants on the main plane are capable of stopping the footsteps of fate?” As the woman said this, she slowly raised her right hand. Numerous blood-red lightning wrapped on the tips of the sharp nails. During the flickering, cracks appeared in the space. When the edge of the momentum swept past Alucier’s cloak, a large area of cut suddenly appeared. It was not only the cloak that was cut, but also flesh and bones.

“Fate can’t be changed; it’s just the time difference between being late or coming early. They may be weak, but they have infinite possibilities.” Alucier smiled faintly, not paying attention to the injuries on his body and the imminent death.

Golden Estate.

From time to time, red lightning flashed across the sky, but no one paid attention to them. No matter if it was the goose formation or the arrow formation, the pupils full of murderous and fighting intent only saw the enemies in front.

At the bottom of the wild goose formation, Lex the Great was standing on the commander platform. He saw Gerant in the center of the opponent’s arrow formation instantly, and he happened to meet Gerant’s gaze. Both of them were people of extraordinary strength. Their perception and vision were far beyond human comparison. At this moment, the 2 top commanders both ‘saw’ each other’s burning fighting spirit.

There was no need for unnecessary scolding or provocation. They ordered the attack almost unanimously.
