Chapter 396: Devil General

The whole island was covered with that black powder, and if you looked out, it looked like a black purgatory. Even Yun Yi and Halcyon, who had seen the Primordial Lands, were astonished by the sight. This view was indeed perplexing!

Sima You Yue took out a wild animal that she was raising in the spirit pavilion, and threw it far.

Crash —-

The wild chicken landed in the black powder, and struggled in it for a bit before its feathers started to be consumed by it, only its bones and flesh remained in the end. And quickly, that plump wild chicken had completely disappeared.

“This black powder is indeed powerful!” Yun Yi thought about the blade of grass that he had touched, and felt afraid. Thankfully he had used a silk handkerchief… If he had used his own hands to touch the grass directly, his hand might have rotted away as well.

Sima You Yue also never imagined that the black powder would be this powerful. She furrowed her brows, saying, “If there’s this much black powder, I’m afraid we must fly over it.”

“Yep. While staying close to the ground.” Halcyon said. They continued to travel by flight and moved towards the borders of the island. The further they travelled inwards, the more surprised they were, as the portion of land covered by black was larger than they had imagined.

“How could these plants end up becoming such caustic black powder?” Thousand Resonance couldn’t help but ask as it looked down at the blackened view. Halcyon and Yun Yi all shook their heads, expressing their uncertainty. They had never seen such a thing and were unsure as to what could have happened.

“Don’t worry, You Yue, no matter what happens, I will protect you, because I am your person!” Yun Yi smiled, saying.

“You… huh?” Sima You Yue felt movement from within the Devil’s Snare Bracelet, but before she could ask what was going on, Mo Sha appeared from within it. When Yun Yi saw another shadow suddenly appear, he was extremely shocked and felt afraid for a moment. However, as he realised that it had come out from Sima You Yue, he thought that this shadow must not be an enemy.

“Mo Sha, why have you suddenly come out?” Sima You Yue asked suspiciously. This punk had just suddenly appeared in front of everyone without a warning. Even though Wei Zi Qi and the rest had been with her for a long time, they did not know about Mo Sha’s existence. Why did he come out today?

“These things.” Mo Sha looked at the thick powder, saying. I guess that counts as him answering her question. But his eyes were glued on Yun Yi, causing Yun Yi’s hair to stand on its ends. He felt as though the god of death was looking at him in the eye. Sima You Yue did not in the slightest bit notice the tension between the two of them, but when she heard what he said, she asked excitedly, “You know how it was made?”

Mo Sha switched his gaze, nodding and said, “A very powerful being has come.”

“The Soul-Gnawing Beast?”

“No.” Mo Sha said. “Though the Soul-Gnawing Beast might be the devil beast that he is raising.”

“You’re saying, that other than the Soul-Gnawing Beast, there is another person living on this island?” Sima You Yue asked.

“That’s right. If that person was able to come out to a place like this, he must be extremely powerful.” Mo Sha said. “What’s more, you guys are not familiar with the tricks of this region, and you definitely will be no match for him.”

“And he even has a sacred beast.” Sima You Yue was shocked speechless. If the other party was this powerful, what were they to do?

“If you can overcome the Soul-Gnawing Beast, I will fight against that person.” Mo Sha said.

“Alright.”

Mo Sha looked at Yun Yi again, saying, “You guys can only contain that fellow for a while, but in this time, you must get rid of the Soul-Gnawing beast.”

“We can only contain him for a while?” Yun Yi’s face was held by his habitual, lazy smile, not really believing what Mo Sha had said.

“If it were not for the rules governing this place, even three thousand of you will not be able to hold him down.” Mo Sha said curtly. The smile on Yun Yi’s face cracked. This was too shocking to absorb.

“He’s that powerful?” Sima You Yue’s eyes opened wide.

“If I’m not guessing wrongly, this person must be something like a Devil General, and is even more powerful than your Divine Ranking people. Powerful, right?” Mo Sha said.

Although Sima You Yue did not understand the rankings within the devil realms, if he was more powerful than someone of a divine ranking, then even Yun Yi will not be able to deal with him.

“I’ll return first, if you can’t get rid of the Soul-Gnawing Beast, I won’t come out again.” Mo Sha said, and he returned to the Devil’s Snare bracelet.

“You Yue, who’s that shadow?” Yun Yi waited for Mo Sha to disappear before he asked.

“The spirit of one of the Head Devils in the Devil realm.” Sima You Yue said. “As fate would have it, we are now bound together.” Yun Yi understood what Sima You Yue was saying. If she lived, so would he; and if she died, so would he. That must be why he was offering to help them out.

“But if the three of us are going to take on the Devil General, are able to handle the Soul-Gnawing Beast on your own?” Yun Yi said, worried about her.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be okay.” Sima You Yue said. The four of them continued to fly on for a while before they reached the middle of the island.

“Here it is.” Sima You Yue looked at the serene surroundings, not seeing the black fog that the scarlet bees had seen previously.

“Are you looking for me?” A deep voice was heard from all directions, and a black fog suddenly rose from the ground, a man suddenly appearing on the small hill before them. Seeing how it was sitting calmly, it looked like it had already been there for a while.

The voice that spoke was suddenly heard from behind them, and as they turned around, they saw the rolling black fog that the scarlet bees had seen.

“Two divine beasts… Heheh, I like that, I have not had fresh blood in a long time.” The freakish black fog laughed, saying.

“Are you that Soul-Gnawing beast?” Sima You Yue asked, sure.

“That’s right.” The black fog started to roll together, slowly forming a pitch black figure wearing a long robe with two legs and six slim arms, having as well the head of a monster. That pair of blood-red eyes were the same pair of eyes that she had seen through the scarlet bees.

“The Soul-Gnawing beast looks like that?” Sima You Yue looked at the Soul-Gnawing Beast with disgust. The black powder that was falling off its body was absolutely morbid. She did not wish to look at it anymore, and turned to look at the Devil General.

“You’re very daring.” The Devil General said, looking straight at Sima You Yue. Many within the devil realm were afraid of him, but seeing that she had the guts to look straight at him, it must mean that she was very brave.

“Thank you for the compliments.” Sima You Yue looked calm on the outside, but she was extremely nervous. His aura was much stronger than that of Old Man Devil’s, and because he was of the Devil clan, he was naturally giving off and intimidating aura.

A gust of wind flew from Sima You Yue towards the Devil General. And he closed his eyes to rub them, looking slightly intoxicated, and looked at her excitedly.

“Your body has a pleasant smell, and you must be tasty. Heheh, I never thought I’d meet a meal like this. Give your body to me…”
