Chapter 479 - The Dust Has Settled

Lord Zhanlang’s piercing scream filled the air, and every single human and demon could hear it loud and clear as his blood rained down from the sky. At this moment, regardless of human or demon; everyone had stopped moving. They stared at this scene with wide eyes, and the once chaotic battlefield instantly became quiet.

High in the sky, Lord Zhanlang’s blood was dripping down from his badly mutilated body. On the other side, Jiang Chen remained floating in the sky, his eyes glowing brightly like a pair of torches. Underneath the eyes of everyone, he moved once more.

His feet trembled, and the third step was taken. With his current strength, three steps were his limits. However, this third step was more than enough for him to kill Lord Zhanlang.

Boom!

Just like how he had killed the Old Great Emperor, Jiang Chen stomped his foot onto Lord Zhanlang’s head. In an instant, its gigantic wolf head exploded into a huge clump of blood mist. A golden demon soul blasted out from the broken skull, and was grabbed tightly by Jiang Chen. Using the True Thunderous Flame, he destroyed Lord Zhanlang’s remaining consciousness in the demon soul, and placed it into his storage ring.

Lord Zhanlang was dead, he had been killed by Jiang Chen’s incredible step! Since his head had completely shattered, his gigantic body fell down from the sky like a mountain, and fell right onto the mountain range, creating a deep crater.

An uproar immediately rose. Everyone were shocked, and no one were able to remain calm. Killing a First Grade Demon King was completely different from killing a Second Grade Demon King.

Daoist Profound River was left speechless by the tremendous shock, and could barely breathe. As he was also a Second Grade Combat King, he was well aware of his frightening Lord Zhanlang was. However, the skill used by Jiang Chen used now was simply incredible. Daoist Profound River had no doubt that if Jiang Chen used that attack against him, he might only last until the second step.

The Great Elder and the people of the Profound River Palace were all panting for breath. All of them were staring at the white-clothed youngster, their shining with a passionate light.

He was too strong, too freaking incredible! Jiang Chen’s existence had completely turned their common sense upside down, including the demons of the Demon King Palace. No one had ever thought a Combat Soul warrior could be so strong.

No wonder he could attract Heavenly Tribulation while breaking through to the Combat Soul realm. Perhaps only a peerless monster like this could possess such heaven-defying strength.

Although the war had just begun, it had already come to an end. It was meaningless to continue fighting. If those demons didn’t give up fighting, they only consequence awaiting them was death.

Daoist Profound River’s eyes swept across the entire place. He looked at the frightened demons, and with a loud voice he said, “From today onwards, no major demon powers are allowed to exist in the Southern Continent. I’ll spare your lives today. No, get the hell out of here.”

Daoist Profound River spared the life of all the remaining demons. The Saint Origin realm was a place shared by all living beings. Thus, humans and demons both had to coexist, and this was the principle of survival. In this calamity, the humans had obtained the final victory; shaping the humans’ position, making them the sole rulers of the Southern Continent. This was more than enough. Killing every single demon was not necessary, it was an act that went against the Heavenly Dao.

No demons dared object to this, and they just scurried away in all directions. Now, the Demon King Palace had vanished from this land. All three Demon Kings had been killed, and the remaining demons were no longer a threat.

The people of the Profound River Palace stormed into the Demon King Palace and took away all their precious treasures, then they set fire to everything in the mountain range, burning all to ashes. Now, everything here had become history.

The war had completely ended, and it was in a fast manner. The humans hadn’t suffered any great losses in this final battle. No one would forget the courageous young man in white who had fought like a God of War. This young man who had suddenly made his debut, just he alone had killed all of the Demon King Palace’s Demon Kings. So, rather than claiming that the Demon King Palace had been destroyed by the Profound River Palace, it was actually more accurate to say it had been destroyed by Jiang Chen alone.

Together with the Great Elder and over a thousand mighty warriors of the Profound River Palace, Daoist Profound River arrived in front of Jiang Chen. Representing the humans of the Southern Continent, they all bowed deeply toward Jiang Chen.

“Brother Jiang Chen, the humans of the Southern Continent will never forget the kindness you have shown us.”

Daoist Profound Rive said with utmost sincerity and honesty, while all the others showed a deeply grateful expression. They all knew what kind of contribution Jiang Chen had made. Without him, they had no idea how many of them would have died in this war, and it would have been impossible for them to kill Lord Baoju and Lord Zhanlang.

“Palace Chief, please don’t mention it. As a human, I naturally have to contribute.”

Jiang Chen cupped his fist and said. He did mean what he said. Since he had met with this event, there was no way for him to just look away and pretend as is nothing was happening. Also, he had also benefited a lot from this war, as he had gotten one First Grade Demon King demon soul and one Second Grade demon soul. Both brought him tremendous benefits. Jiang Chen would soon go to the Divine Continent, and if he could break through to the Combat King realm before that, it would no doubt improve his strength greatly. Thus, he wouldn’t be too weak when he was at the Divine Continent.

Seeing these people treating Jiang Chen as their hero, the happiest person would definitely be Wu Ningzhu and Yan Chenyu. For Yan Chenyu, her Chen Gege was the best person in her mind. As for Wu Ningzhu, she had her own reasons to be happy. Jiang Chen’s mighty performance had proven her excellent judgment. At the same time, she felt happy that it was Jiang Chen who removed her veil, and not someone else.

“Since the war has ended and the victory belongs to us humans, Brother Jiang Chen, you have to be our guest at the Profound River Palace! Let me perform the duties of a host.”
