It had only been half a day since the death of the previous Iceswytha Demon God.
Now, the entire Immortal and Demon Realm was filled with the charred corpses or ice-pierced bodies of the alien demon race.
It looked like a scene from hell.
The demons outside, who had intended to storm back in, were terrified by this sight and immediately fled.
Their commander, the Demon God, was dead; staying any longer would only be for the enemy to gain experience.
At the highest point of the territory, a woman clad in a blue battle robe slowly walked out, as if she had been by their side all along.
"Great Holy Lord, Your Majesty, doesn't my formation, combined with your divine power, seem quite formidable?"
This woman was Helena Tis, the Earth Goddess, resurrected by the protagonist.
The Earth Goddess Helena Tis looked at the protagonist tenderly, clearly seeking his praise.
The protagonist was obliging, showing a smile.
"Your Highness, Earth Goddess Helena Tis, you have indeed done excellent work. Such an ancient and powerful formation, if not for your resurrection, might truly have been buried in this world."
Upon being praised by the protagonist, the thief revealed a shy and happy smile.
"Great Holy Lord, Your Majesty, although my formation is powerful, it would never have reached this level without being combined with your divine power. Therefore, it is Your Majesty's power that grants the formation supreme might."
What the Earth Goddess Helena Tis said was not merely because she was a soldier of the protagonist in the Immortal and Demon Realm.
It was because everything she said was the truth.
Although her formation was indeed powerful, without the protagonist's miraculous divine power, it would never have yielded such an unexpected result.
"And great Holy Lord, Your Majesty! It was you who ordered all citizens to relocate to the core of the palace, which allowed me to unleash my full capabilities."
"It is all because of your intelligence and wisdom that my formation could release its maximum power."
It turned out that before the alien demon race arrived, before Zhao Tiancheng sent the protagonist a message.
The protagonist had already made all the arrangements.
The protagonist first had the citizens of the territory move to the core of the Immortal and Demon Empire to hide.
Then, he deliberately weakened the empire's defensive shield, allowing the demons to enter with ease.
After they entered, he reactivated the empire's defensive shield.
This was like closing the door to beat the dog.
Indeed, the results of this battle were gratifying!
The protagonist curved his lips and turned to look in the southwest direction.
Now that the alien demon race had completely retreated, he could see the scene outside.
As a divine lord, his eyesight was exceptional. Even without releasing his divine sense, he could see the distant "Home of the Goddess."
Demonic energy was surging from there, and another power was fluctuating.
It was clear at a glance that a fierce battle was underway.
Although he had only dispatched two little ones, the protagonist felt no worry.
Because he knew that as long as Xiao Xiaoxiao was there, the alien demon race could not harm the "Home of the Goddess" one bit.
...
The "Home of the Goddess" territory.
Shen Qingqing, the lord of the territory, touched her neck, feeling a sting and a sticky sensation.
Territory Lord Shen Qingqing brought her fingers to her face and saw that they were covered in blood, her own blood.
Despite bleeding so much, there was no trace of pain in Territory Lord Shen Qingqing's eyes. Instead, they were filled with relief and disbelief.
Because she had thought she was going to die, she never expected to be alive now.
This was something she had not dared to imagine. She had actually survived under an alien demon of the Divine King level!
The events had begun about ten minutes prior.
It turned out that when Territory Lord Shen Qingqing saw that demon, she had already given up hope of surviving.
She was preparing to find a peaceful way to die, but unexpectedly.
After a sharp pain in her neck, a gust of wind flew past her face.
Following that, the Divine King level demon in front of her exploded into a cloud of blood mist, splashing her from head to toe.
Before she could even react, she saw a tiny figure descend from the sky.
It had red skin, two small horns on its head, and its red pupils were devoid of any emotion.
The little girl with red skin walked up to her, gave her a look of disdain, and said:
"Sister, are you alright?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Territory Lord Shen Qingqing realized that this little girl was the same Xiao Xiaoxiao she had just met.
"You... how are you so powerful?"
"And why have you become like this?"
Territory Lord Shen Qingqing could not believe she had been saved by a little girl and remained in a state of shock.
However, after she recovered, she saw that Xiao Xiaoxiao had only glanced at her. Upon seeing that she was unharmed.
She immediately threw herself into the midst of the demons.
Seeing the small figure charge into the horde of alien demons with the speed of wind, Territory Lord Shen Qingqing instinctively wanted to call her back.
But before she could open her mouth, she saw Xiao Xiaoxiao charge into the alien demon race, like a wolf entering a flock of sheep.
Her monstrous demeanor was simply that of one who would kill gods and buddhas alike. Her ferocious posture stunned everyone present.
"What is that?"
"Is that still human? How can it be so powerful? My heavens?"
The female territory lord's eyes widened in astonishment, finding it hard to believe that the little girl who had been so cute moments ago had now become so ferocious.
No, that definitely wasn't a little girl!
After all, what little girl could rip demons apart with her bare hands!
The alien demons, which were terrifying in their eyes, were as fragile as torn chickens in the little girl's hands.
"Oh? She's definitely human! Don't you remember her? It's Xiaoxiao!"
