The affection in the eyes of the Queen of the Fox Clan, not to mention the Spirit Devourer King, but everyone else present could see it as well.

“I saved you not because I don’t want you to die, but because I can’t let my sons bear the reputation of killing their mother.” The Spirit Devourer King said what was in his heart bluntly.

The Queen of the Fox Clan went pale. This was the first time she had seen the Spirit Devourer King so indifferent since she knew him.

There was a kind of unbearable sadness in her heart, like countless sharp knives cutting her flesh.

How could it be like this? How could A’Mo be so indifferent to her?

“A’Mo, so it turns out that you also have times where you’re so cold and heartless.” She scoffed at herself.

In her impressions, A’Mo was always so elegant and gentle, as humble as a gentleman, and had never become angry at her before, let alone be so distant to the point that she couldn’t accept it.

The Spirit Devourer King sighed and said: “People will always eventually change. Didn’t you also already turn into something I don’t recognise. We will ultimately pass by each other.”

His words made the Queen of the Fox Clan startled, and her face became even paler, even with a bit of despondence.  

This was exactly what she said to Mo Yan just now.

She looked up at him and asked: “Was your consciousness clear when you were in a coma?”

Otherwise, how would it have been possible to hear their conversation and know what she had done.

“Mm, I watched everything you did with a very clear mind over the years, and I gradually realised that the woman I once loved was so insane and beyond recognition.” The Spirit Devourer King replied faintly.

His soul was asleep and his consciousness was clear, but he couldn’t wake up no matter what. The pain and guilt for his son and clan tortured him constantly.

Unexpectedly, the soul energy actually broke through in such torture.

“How can you look at me like this?” The Queen of the Fox Clan laughed bitterly with a gaze of pain: “You hate me?”

Would the man who loved her the most hate her as much as her sons?

“No, I don’t hate you.” The Spirit Devourer King shook his head, eyes emotionless, “I have begun to care less over the years. I no longer love nor hate you.”

The Queen of the Fox Clan took a step back, as if she had been given a heavy mental blow.

No love and no hate? Her heartache was unbearable.

So it turned out the cruellest words in the world weren’t ‘I hate you’, but to have no love and no hate—such a cruel and thorough cut and denying of their past.

“Then how will you choose today? Will you help your two good sons to deal with me together?” The Queen of the Fox Clan raised her chin—no matter what, she was the proud First Princess of the Void Night World.

She couldn’t lose her integrity in front of the man she loved the most.

She regretted it—she truly regretted it.

Seeing the man she loved treat her indifferently, without love nor hatred, and her two biological sons want to kill her personally, this wasn’t what she wanted.

A tear fell from the corner of her eye. If she had chosen to give up the plan to occupy Guang’ling World, would she still have a husband who loved her, sons who admired her, and would their family live happily together?

No, there were no ifs in this world. When she chose to take this path, she had given up a lot, especially love and familial affection. She couldn’t regret it.

The Spirit Devourer King loved the Queen of the Fox Clan so much in the past, so he naturally captured the complexity and contradictions in her eyes.

But his heart truly couldn’t beat for her anymore.

“No, I won’t help them deal with you.” His voice was distant and ethereal.

The Queen of the Fox Clan’s originally dejected expression instantly became alive, her eyes revealing a bit of brilliance, and she softly called again: “A’Mo.”

The Spirit Devourer King pondered for a moment, then said: “But I will die together with you. Let’s go to hell together.”

His voice was soft and calm, making going down to hell sound as simple as eating and sleeping.

“You…” The Queen of the Fox Clan looked at the Spirit Devourer King with wide eyes in disbelief, but she didn’t know what to say.

Mo Yan turned pale with shock, “King Father, stop paying so much for this woman, she’s not worth it.”

His King Father actually wanted to die with this woman—just how deep of a feeling would it take for him to think about going to hell.

The Spirit Devourer King looked at Mo Yan gently and smiled, saying: “This is the punishment we deserve.”

“Your soul energy’s going to dissipate?” Mo Yàn asked with furrowed brows as he noticed that the aura of the figure transformed by the Spirit Devourer King was getting weaker and weaker.

The Spirit Devourer King smiled and said: “That’s right. I burned my soul as fuel just now in order to forcibly wake up from my slumber, so my soul is really about to dissipate.”

“Yàn’er, Father is apologetic to you two brothers, only hoping that you can look after Yan’er more in the future, so that Father can feel at ease after death.” The voice of the Spirit Devourer King contained some pleading.

“King Father.” Mo Yan’s voice was choked with sobs.

The Spirit Devourer King reached out a hand and rubbed Mo Yan’s head, “Yan’er, from now on, you will only have your elder brother. Father hopes that you will always be brothers, loving and supporting each other.”

This was his only wish.

“I’ll take good care of Mo Yan without you needing to tell me.” Mo Yàn also had an unspeakable feeling in his heart.

“Alright. You are a good elder brother, much more competent than Father.” The Spirit Devourer King’s eyes were filled with relief.

Then he looked at Mo Yan and said: “Yan’er, the Spirit Devourer Clan will surely become more united after this ordeal. If you want to remain in the clan, you can continue to be the Demon King. If you don’t want to, then send them back to the original Spirit Devourer’s territory and re-elect a Demon King.”

He didn’t want his son to take on the responsibility of the entire clan of Spirit Devourers—that would be unfair to his son.

“Alright!” Mo Yan’s eyes were red, and he felt so uncomfortable that he was a little suffocated.

“You are both Father’s good sons. Allow Father to give you one last fortuitous opportunity before death.” The voice of the Spirit Devourer King became fainter and fainter.

Then everyone saw him stretch out his finger and point. Countless spatial rifts loomed, and the Sha Corpses suddenly self-exploded and were sucked into the spatial rifts.

When the spatial rifts closed, the Queen of the Fox Clan fell limply to the ground. Her lifeforce gradually weakened and disappeared, her expression filled with regret and relief.

A strand of a white soul emerged from her body, and was held in the hands of the Spirit Devourer King’s soul.

Then a very weak strand separated from the Spirit Devourer King’s soul and entangled with that of the Queen of the Fox Clan. The rest of his soul gradually disintegrated into specks of light and entered into the bodies of Mo Yan brothers.

A colourless crystal appeared in each of their seas of consciousness, which was the crystallisation of the soul of the Spirit Devourer King. After refining, their comprehension would be one step higher, and they could even breakthrough to the cultivation base of Immortal.

As their father, this was the last thing he could do for his sons.

The two strands of souls in mid-air began to fade, and finally disappeared.

At the same time, the avatar of the Queen of the Fox Clan who was in the royal palace of the Void Night World was still immersed in that deep sadness.

Suddenly, her heart seemed to be clenched by some force. She couldn’t breathe, her consciousness became blurry, and her split soul separated from her body.

At the very last moment, she smiled poignantly, and murmured softly: “So you want to cut off all my lifeforce, destroying my main body and avatar, my soul never to be reincarnated.

“A’Mo, you did it. I regret it so much!”
