Bai Li stepped forward, releasing the terrifying aura of a fierce beast without reservation!

The aura at the Totem Peak pressed down like a mountain toward Long Zhenguo and the others!

Long Zhenguo, Verocan, and the others instantly turned pale, their breath halted!

Although they were also at the Totem Level, even standing firm became extremely difficult in the face of this aura.

Just the oppressive aura already made them lose all thoughts of resistance!

The gap in power was too great!

"Bai Li." Feng Ni spoke lightly.

Bai Li pursed her lips but still followed the instruction to restrain her aura, stepping back unwillingly.

Only then did Long Zhenguo and the others feel like they were granted a reprieve, panting heavily as cold sweat soaked their backs, looking at the two with fearful eyes.

A Totem Peak was already like this; what kind of horror must that unfathomable Emperor-level existence be?

But just at this moment.

Buzz!

The space in the distance twisted violently without warning, tearing open a space rift abruptly.

Immediately after, several figures tumbled out alongside three radiant golden light spheres.

It was Liu Li, Vera, Snow Woman, Aliya, and the three newly restored Human Race Divine Patterns!

They seemed to be caught off guard, faces blank with confusion.

Upon recognizing the surroundings, sensing the familiar aura of Long Zhenguo and others, their hearts tightened.

"Sister Liu Li! Where is Brother Xing?"

Coming back to her senses, Aliya approached Liu Li, asking the question in panic.

Liu Li didn't know how to answer facing this question.

She silently lowered her head!

And Long Zhenguo and the others saw Liu Li, Vera, and the Guardian Beasts, yet not the familiar figure.

Noticing Liu Li and Vera's heartbroken expressions, they already understood....

Gu Xing might indeed have fallen!

But at this moment, Feng Ni's gaze flickered slightly as it swept over Liu Li and Vera.

Especially sensing the strong, exceedingly familiar aura from them.

A memory, long sealed in the corner of her past, quietly surfaced…

She had owed a promise upon breaking through to the Emperor level.

At a future time, should the Human Race face the danger of being overturned, she must protect them once.

So distant was the history that she had almost forgotten.

But now, feeling that familiar power, the memory came back to her.

Feng Ni frowned slightly.

She disliked getting involved in disputes, yet that person… held a special significance to her.

Before she could decide, a new change occurred!

"Boom——!"

A force filled with pure destructive intent suddenly descended!

The sky darkened in an instant, as if covered in thick ink, a murderous intent that froze souls enveloped the entire scene!

Demon God Abyss, arrived!

He tore space open, and his scarlet eyes instantly locked on the newly appeared Liu Li, Vera, and others!

Especially seeing by their side those three intact and even more radiant Human Race Divine Patterns, his fury fully ignited!

"Ants!"

Yuan's roar trembled space!

One unexpected event after another, the Dragon Emperor's desperate obstruction, Gu Xing's soul escaping, and now the prey and Divine Patterns within his grasp being transported away, reappearing here under his nose!

For the supreme Demon God, it was an unprecedented humiliation!

Old grudges joined new hatred, compounding the killing intent of Yuan to its peak!

Without another word, an attack was directly launched at Liu Li and the others!

This strike, launched in anger, swore to erase these eye-sore bugs from existence!

"No——!"

Long Zhenguo's eyes were about to crack, wanting to intervene.

These Guardian Beasts were the only hope left by Gu Xing.

He tried his best to intervene, to no avail.

For Yuan's aura alone made him unable to move a finger!

He could only watch helplessly as everything unfolded!

And Liu Li, Vera, and the others once again felt the crisis of death.

But now, they had long abandoned the thought of resistance.

Gu Xing's death meant a death of their spirits as well.

Just then, at this critical moment...

"Buzz!"

A crimson flame suddenly blocked the attack from Yuan!

"Boom————!!!"

Yuan's attack collided without causing a ripple, suddenly extinguished.

Complete silence enveloped the scene!

Everyone was stunned, including the furious Demon God Abyss!

Long Zhenguo and others were incredulous, staring at the elegant shape of the figure from behind, minds blank.

She... she actually blocked the Demon God's attack?!

Why?

Bai Li widened her tiger eyes in surprise, confused as she stared at Feng Ni's figure.

Wasn't Sister Feng the one who hated trouble most?

Why would she make a move for these "bugs"?

And Demon God Yuan fixated on Feng Ni, a note of gravity in his voice:

"Phoenix! You wish to interfere in my affairs?!"

Feng Ni slowly withdrew her hand.

She raised her golden eyes, meeting Demon God Yuan's murderous gaze calmly.

Then, her ethereal voice echoed across the heavens:

"From now on, I will protect this place."

These simple words were akin to thunder, exploding in each person's heart!

Long Zhenguo and others could hardly believe their ears!

This Emperor-level Fierce Beast, not only blocked the Demon God but also...

Directly declared protection for the Human Race?!

The tremendous shock of finding salvation from desperation left many in a daze, unable to react.

Demon God Yuan's surrounding Demonic Qi surged wildly, showing his deep-seated fury.

He fixated on Feng Ni, with the Emperor-level Fierce Beast's pressure and the Demon God's Demonic Qi fiercely colliding in the air, space emitting the sounds of a strained twist!

Yuan quickly pondered internally.

This Phoenix before him was an existence of the same rank.

In terms of strength, she even matched the full strength of the ancient seal-bound demonic eel.

If he fought her to the bone now, even winning, it would be a pyrrhic victory.

But such a battle would surely delay unsealing other Demon Gods, and welcoming the descent of the Demon Abyss.

"Hmph!"

Yuan finally coldly snorted, the wildly surging Demonic Qi gradually subsided, yet the murderous intent did not wane.

"Feng Ni, today's event, I will remember it! When my Demon Abyss army descends, we will settle this account!"

Before the words were finished, his figure began to fade, eventually merging wholly into the Void, disappearing.

The suffocating, terrifying pressure also dissipated accordingly.

Until confirming that the Demon God Abyss had truly left, Long Zhenguo and others breathed a long sigh of relief, as if they had been drained.

This time, they actually survived the crisis!

Feng Ni, however, ignored the human reactions and silently approached Liu Li and Vera.

Her golden phoenix eyes calmly gazed at them, her ethereal voice directly resonating in their souls:

"Where is your master now?"

Upon hearing this voice, Liu Li lifted her head in bewilderment.

Gone was the luster from her eyes, her gaze dulled with an emptiness.

Knowing it was she who saved everyone in the final moment by stopping the Demon God.

Liu Li's lips trembled slightly as if to speak, but no sound came out.

Eventually, she summoned every ounce of her strength to squeeze out a few words from her parched throat, her voice like sandpaper scraping:

"Master… he is dead!"
