World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1819 - 76: When the Dust Settles (Part 2)

As an Extraordinary Level being, Vashanesh’s corpse should have brought a great enhancement to the Original Realm, elevating its Boundary Value significantly.

Unfortunately, he was already instantly killed by Yeluo, and under the scorching of the Holy Attribute, even his corpse couldn’t be preserved.

Moreover, a mere corpse is not sufficient. Zhang Xiaoman tried to introduce Demon Clan corpses to the Original Realm for absorption, but that proved ineffective.

The demon must be killed in the Original Realm; if sent in post-death, it won’t have any effect, and this rule applies equally in the First Universe.

To absorb the essence of alien species in the First Universe, you must meet three conditions.

Firstly, the corpse being absorbed must be non-Spiritual Wisdom Clan.

Secondly, the alien species must originate from the Second Universe; those born within the First Universe through a host cannot be absorbed.

Finally, the alien species corpse must die in the First Universe; if killed in the Second Universe then brought back, it cannot be absorbed.

Zhang Xiaoman suspects this might be related to the rules of the universe itself.

Aliens from the Second Universe get absorbed by the First, but if they’re killed in their own universe, the Second Universe will quickly reclaim them, making it pointless to bring the corpse back.

Similarly, even if Zhang Xiaoman could get the bodies of the two brothers from the Rothschild family, he wouldn’t be able to reutilize them in the Original Realm.

Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand to indicate it’s fine.

Though it’s a pity, there’s really nothing to be done.

Extraordinary Level battles are not casual skirmishes like at the Enlightenment Level, where you can halt or restrain at will.

Once a fight breaks out and you aim for victory, it’s hard to just injure without killing the opponent unless the disparity in strength is too massive. Otherwise, capturing alive is not feasible.

Zhang Xiaoman certainly won’t blame Yeluo for this; instead, he should thank her. Despite her strength being quite average compared to other Extraordinary Levels,

her unique Holy Attribute power allows her to overpower high-level demonic races, showing no fear against even Peak Lower Gods, and single-handedly suppressing enemies deep in their lair is impressive.

With Yeluo’s power, Zhang Xiaoman finds fighting against the Demon Clan considerably easier; compared to other powerful Extraordinary Levels, Yeluo is much more effective.

He feels saving this girl with Holy Water was incredibly worthwhile, turning the one-time usage Holy Water into a reusable Summoning Skill.

Now, with Vashanesh resolved, the Lan family has secured the final victory in this conflict.

The Rothschild family’s fleet got absorbed by their Ancestors themselves, leading to a complete defeat in this Plague Relics journey.

With this part of their core power lost and two Ancestors fallen, the Rothschild family is effectively withdrawing from the stage of Star Spirit Council Great Elder competition.

They are bound to be completely defeated by the Lan family soon, unless their family has other Ancestors to hold the fort, which is highly unlikely. The Lan family’s victory is nearly assured.

Zhang Xiaoman adjusted his mood; everything happened so quickly, from Vashanesh’s assault to Yeluo’s instant kill, all within just a few short minutes.

Zi Kuang and Blue White Clothes over there haven’t had time to catch up, and the battle here has already ended.

"Kid, are you alright!"

Finally, Zi Kuang and Blue White Clothes arrived late.

Zi Kuang looked at Zhang Xiaoman with concern and didn’t relax until he saw Zhang Xiaoman unharmed.

"Haha, as expected of someone I favor; managing to retreat unscathed against a formidable opponent like Vashanesh, you surely have a place in the future Extraordinary Level domain. I feel relieved entrusting Ziwei to you."

Zi Kuang happily patted Zhang Xiaoman’s shoulder, the powerful and heavy feeling familiar to Zhang Xiaoman, he thought to himself how similar Ziwei and her father were in character.

"Right, where did that pesky bat run off to? I’ll chase him down to eliminate him for good, although my speed can’t match his, I surpass him in endurance. He is heavily injured now, just keep pursuing him and within two months I’ll catch up!"

He said while looking around.

The residual spiritual power that Ziwei used to instantly kill Vashanesh was intense, and Zi Kuang thought this level of power was used by someone while escaping and targeting Zhang Xiaoman.

Blue White Clothes frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his gaze.

"Vashanesh is already dead, did you kill him?"

Blue White Clothes asked Yeluo.

With his insight, he had seen part of the truth already; the question was just for confirmation.

"What? Vashanesh is already dead?"

Zi Kuang reacted belatedly, showing a surprised expression.

Earlier, his attention was all on Zhang Xiaoman’s condition, not immediately surveying the surrounding situation.

After Blue White Clothes reminded him, he also realized something strange.

"This power... is Holy Attribute? Is she perhaps... a Holy Angel? How is this possible! The Holy Angel Clan was already..."

He didn’t continue because Yeluo’s expression wasn’t good.

If someone repeatedly mentions the extermination of one’s clan, anyone’s heart would be troubled.

"Lord Jixing, I..."

Yeluo wanted to say she wished to return early, not wanting to stay here any longer.

For her, the Second Universe is a place of sorrow; appearing here inevitably prompts queries about the clan’s extermination, causing distress.

Moreover, Demon Lord Yan is a Dominator Level powerhouse here, and Yeluo doesn’t know if her stay will attract his attention.

If her presence causes conflict between Lord Jixing and Yan, it would be unforgivable.

Thus, Yeluo now earnestly wishes to return, but fears saying so abruptly might seem impolite, so after hesitating, ultimately decided not to speak out.

Zhang Xiaoman naturally guessed her concerns, but he didn’t mind.

Now with Yeluo convinced to sign a Soul Contract with him, she’s under his protection.

While with him, the Shadow Lord’s passive ability will obscure her presence, preventing Yan from seeking her out.

"Two elders, this is my friend, Agarose Yeluo, from the Holy Angel Clan."

Zhang Xiaoman introduced them to each other, allowing the group to be somewhat acquainted.

Yeluo didn’t understand why Lord Jixing referred to these Lower Gods as elders.

She heard some tales about the Lord from Naphaya, knowing he often disguises his power, pretending to be weak to catch others off guard. She guessed this might be the case now.

Though unclear of its purpose, since Lord Jixing plans to conceal his strength, she naturally won’t expose it.

Lord Jixing is among the top-tier Universe powerhouses, surely with profound strategies behind his actions, beyond her grasp; best not guess unnecessarily.

As for whether Lord Jixing’s power is merely shown as Fake Transcendent Level, Yeluo wouldn’t believe it.

She personally witnessed him breaking the Prohibition of the Plague Temple, forcibly integrating it into the Original Realm, and being empowered mightily within the Original Realm. How could someone below true Extraordinary Level achieve such feats?

Most crucially, the Holy Angel Clan’s unique talent lets him discern Zhang Xiaoman’s true realm, making it impossible to disguise, giving Yeluo certainty that Lord Jixing is concealing his identity.
