Pang Bobing’s figure suddenly appeared behind Hua Junshuang. He placed one hand on her shoulder and said in a low voice, "Stabilize your mind. Extinguish your emotions."
With Pang Bobing’s murmured incantation, Hua Junshuang’s body gradually stopped trembling.
The shifting features on her face finally settled into Hua Junshuang’s appearance.
Though still slightly blurred, the outcome seemed decided.
There was no doubt that Pang Bobing knew how to help.
Ye Yu truly did not.
Wait... how did this guy get here?
Could it be that Zhu Xincheng failed to hold on and had already fallen?
At that thought, Ye Yu immediately turned, preparing for a tactical retreat.
But the moment he turned around, he bumped straight into Zhu Xincheng.
She let out a muffled groan and grabbed Ye Yu’s sleeve tightly with one hand.
Pointing at Li Mu’s back, her voice trembling, she said, "Tell me—what is going on?"
Even after tens of millions of years, with only a glimpse of that back, Zhu Xincheng could recognize it.
The figure ahead was her mother, who had fallen long ago.
Ye Yu did not answer immediately.
Instead, he lowered his head to look in front of him.
The earlier collision had left quite a bit of blood on his robe.
Clearly, Zhu Xincheng’s injuries were even more severe.
Her battle with Pang Bobing had not gone in her favor.
So Ye Yu took out the last divine pill he had left and stuffed it into Zhu Xincheng’s mouth.
Then he explained, "I can use a divine art that summons fallen members of the Divine Race. I accidentally summoned your mother. The process is complicated. This isn’t the time to explain. You need to pull yourself together and take us out of here."
The situation was already very clear.
Zhu Xincheng was their strongest combatant.
If even she fell, then Ye Yu’s dream would come to an end.
So she absolutely had to hold on.
Meanwhile, Pang Bobing frowned and said softly to Hua Junshuang in front of him, "Let’s go."
The battle with Zhu Xincheng had been extremely fierce.
He had originally thought that with her heavily injured, he could easily kill her.
But unexpectedly, Zhu Xincheng had fought in a life-for-life manner.
In that case, if he insisted on killing her, he would also suffer serious injuries.
Thus, Pang Bobing had begun to think of retreating.
But Hua Junshuang did not agree.
In a cold voice, she said, "Kill those two first before we leave."
"Otherwise, our occupation of Elder Ge’s divine soul will eventually spread."
"And given that little girl’s temperament, once she recovers from her injuries, do you think she’ll let us off easily?"
"Better to cut the weeds and pull out the roots."
Hearing this, Pang Bobing found it reasonable.
Although Elder Ge had been silent for tens of millions of years, who knew whether he still had close friends in the God Realm?
If news of their occupation of his divine soul spread, it might bring unforeseen trouble.
At that thought, Pang Bobing suddenly moved forward, intending to kill Zhu Xincheng.
Hua Junshuang followed closely behind, preparing to assist.
Seeing this, Zhu Xincheng showed no hesitation and charged forward.
"Take my mother and go. You must protect her!"
Hearing that, Ye Yu instinctively nodded.
But immediately afterward, his expression turned extremely strange.
The original purpose of Demon Conversion had been to have fallen gods protect him.
Who would have thought that he, the creator of the technique, would end up protecting the fallen god he summoned?
Wasn’t this completely reversed?
Fine. Reversed or not.
Ye Yu grabbed Li Mu and prepared to run again.
Before leaving, he cast one last glance at Zhu Xincheng’s situation.
That single glance made his heart sink completely.
Zhu Xincheng was truly at the end of her strength.
At the cost of taking further injuries, Pang Bobing had used Ghost God Claw to trap her in midair.
Hua Junshuang did not waste the opportunity. She took out a golden spear and prepared to deliver the killing blow.
This scene gave Ye Yu a splitting headache.
If Zhu Xincheng died, wouldn’t he be next?
Was this dream truly about to end?
At that critical moment—
Li Mu slowly uttered two words.
"Little Ge."
In an instant, time seemed to freeze.
Hua Junshuang’s face suddenly blurred, and then Elder Ge’s appearance reemerged.
That call had completely awakened him.
He reversed the direction of the golden spear, twisting it with both hands.
The golden spear instantly transformed into a mass of flame and roared toward Pang Bobing.
A terrifying wave of heat caused the temperature between heaven and earth to surge.
And this flame was no ordinary fire, but divine flame—naturally suppressing ghostly beings like Pang Bobing.
From within the blaze came Pang Bobing’s painful scream.
But Elder Ge had no intention of stopping there.
He took out dozens of divine artifacts from his Storage Ring in succession, activating them one after another.
For dozens of breaths straight, he bombarded Pang Bobing relentlessly—
Until he was smashed to death on the spot.
At that moment, Ye Yu gained a new understanding of Elder Ge’s strength.
That squinty-eyed old man truly had substance.
A God Lord Realm expert—killed just like that.
Of course, this also owed much to Zhu Xincheng.
If she had not fought in a life-for-life manner and exhausted most of Pang Bobing’s divine power, this God Lord Realm ghost god would not have been so easily destroyed by Elder Ge.
But there were no “ifs” in this world.
The victor lives, the loser falls. It was that simple.
With Pang Bobing dead, Zhu Xincheng broke free from her restraints.
She immediately turned and threw herself into Li Mu’s embrace, crying loudly.
But Ye Yu did not lower his guard.
His gaze remained fixed on Elder Ge.
Pang Bobing was dead, yes.
But Ye Yu clearly remembered that Hua Junshuang was still inside Elder Ge’s body. Who knew whether she might reappear and seize control of his divine soul again?
For the moment, however, that concern seemed unfounded.
Elder Ge took out a compass and pressed it against his chest.
Then he gave Ye Yu a slight shake of the head.
"Don’t worry. With this here, Hua Junshuang won’t come out for the time being. But Li Mu..."
He stopped halfway, looking at Ye Yu with eyes full of expectation.
He desperately wanted to hear good news.
Perhaps the hope was slim—but what if?
Ye Yu spoke softly, "It’s only a divine art, not a true resurrection. I can make her exist as long as possible. But as for consciousness and emotions, I can do nothing."
Demon Conversion only summoned fallen members of the Divine Race to fight.
Their thoughts and emotions from before death should not exist.
The fact that Li Mu could resist through sheer obsession—and even call out ‘Little Ge’—was already the limit.
To expect her to communicate like a normal member of the Divine Race was impossible.
But Elder Ge did not give up.
He asked, "What if a remnant soul were infused into her?"
