Qin Mo didn't understand why he felt this way; he was sure he didn't know the other person at all. This woman was enveloped in demonic energy, exuding a hint of charm, yet deep within that charm was an endless coldness. It wasn't the kind of cold that resembled an ice mountain, but rather a kind of chilling indifference, as if her heart had turned to ashes. What could she have experienced to become so heartless? Qin Mo was certain that this was his first time meeting this woman, yet he couldn't shake off the feeling of familiarity.
However, no matter how hard he tried, Qin Mo couldn't recall when he had seen her before. The demonic energy surrounding her was far too intense and too frigid. If he weren't a perfect demonic physique, he would have mistaken her for a member of the Demon Tribe. But Qin Mo knew she wasn't.
At first, Qin Mo had the time to wonder why she felt so familiar to him, but as time passed, he completely lost that thought and instead felt an overwhelming pressure. This mysterious woman had a terrifying comprehension of the demonic sound staircase. In the beginning, Qin Mo could keep ahead, but soon, she was tailing him closely, always just a bit slower than him. How could this be possible? He had the most perfect demonic physique, which allowed him to grasp the demonic sound so quickly, yet this woman, merely a human, could keep up with him so closely—it left Qin Mo astonished. This woman was frightening!
Although Qin Mo didn't know whether the first person to reach the altar would have an advantage, or if once someone stepped onto the altar, the next person would fall into an endless demonic abyss, he couldn't afford to take the risk, so he could only frantically comprehend the demonic sound staircase, striving to reach the top altar as fast as possible.
“Compared to demonic talent, I, Qin Mo, fear no one.”
“Clap!” With determination in his gaze, Qin Mo stepped onto the twenty-seventh step, and a terrifying demonic sound assaulted him, causing him to sway and sit cross-legged, continuing to resist and comprehend.
“He stepped onto the twenty-seventh step?” Seemingly sensing Qin Mo's actions, Chen Sisi opened her eyes, her expression complex as she glanced at the figure on the step above her. That back was too reminiscent of Chen Shao. Chen Sisi felt a wave of confusion, but it quickly turned cold.
At this moment, she realized that the silhouette she had seen outside the spatial seal was actually that of this man in black. At first, she even thought that Chen Shao had come back to life, but when she looked into Qin Mo's eyes, all her hopes shattered, replaced by endless hatred. This was a member of the Demon Tribe! The pitch-black demonic eyes were etched into Chen Sisi's memory; it was these Demon Tribe members who caused Chen Shao's downfall on that continent in the ancient Yu realm.
Chen Shao's fall was all thanks to the Piao Miao Palace and these Demon Tribe members.
“Chen Shao, although I don't know what this place is, I absolutely won't allow this Demon Tribe member to obtain the inheritance here. I, Chen Sisi, am willing to embrace the demonic path to avenge you.”
Her black hair flew as Chen Sisi closed her eyes, comprehending everything around her. When she first arrived, she had resisted. Although she was the Holy Daughter of the Illusionary Demonic Sect, her dream was to be a carefree girl, living in a wooden house surrounded by mountains and rivers, enjoying the sunshine and nature. Yet her natural charm physique did not allow her to have such dreams.
It seemed she was born to bring misfortune; everyone close to her would drift away. Her parents were like that, as was Chen Shao. She had cried in pain, but she knew she couldn't change anything. Crying wouldn't change anything; in this cruel, bare world, the only thing she could do was to grow stronger.
From the moment she saw the Demon-continent explode, she wanted to die with Qin Chen, but she was stopped by the Illusionary Martial Emperor. Later, she barely survived. But her heart had long since died. Now, the only thought keeping her alive was to avenge Qin Chen.
