“Is that… the Crystal of Nature?”

Even though it was very far away and was as tiny as dust in Su Hao’s vision, it still emitted wisps of light. When the Sand Earthworm Dragon completely turned into light and disappeared, the slowly falling hexagonal crystal became even more eye-catching.

Butterfly flapped its wings and flew forward. Just as it flew out, it seemed to have thought of something and stopped.

It stretched out its finger and pointed forward. Ripples spread out, and a Butterfly Fairy identical to it came out from the ripples.

With a flap of its butterfly wings, its entire body was like a flowing light. In just a moment, it appeared in front of the earthen yellow crystal and reached out to grab it.

It examined it carefully before taking it back.

“Gurgle ~”

“It’s a Crystal of Nature, but its quality is very ordinary. It’s a level lower than the one the Big Fat Bear absorbed.”

One reason for this was that the Sand Earthworm Dragon was relatively weak.

The second reason had to do with the other party’s final self-destructing attack.

It had lost the power of its source.

But it was still a rather precious treasure.

“Gurgle~?”

“You’re asking how much it’s worth? Well… this value is very difficult to measure with numbers. How should I put it? It’s probably equivalent to a relatively cheap top-notch treasure.”

“Coo…”

It was clearly very valuable spoils of war, but why did it feel so ordinary when it was associated with top-notch treasures?

There was no excitement at all ~!

Why is it like this, sob…

Butterfly thought about it, and still…

“Gurgle!” Σ(σ`•ω• ́)σ

“Well, it’s time to put an end to the Dark Society Heavenly King.”

Su Hao looked down.

At this moment…

The thousand-meter-long Giant Rock Dragon disappeared with the wind. On the ground, a huge rift that was two to three thousand meters long appeared. Around the rift, countless hideous cracks spread like spiderwebs.

Many huge rocks were still rolling down.

The violent energy flow formed a hurricane and didn’t dissipate for a long time.

In his perception, the elements were still chaotic.

Even under the cleansing of nature, the traces here would take a long time to disperse.

However…

When Su Hao flew down and lowered his height, an icon finally appeared on the interface of the canyon filled with death aura.

It was an Armored Tremor Pig King.

According to its location, it should be deep under the hidden valley.

It didn’t move.

“Pretending to be dead?”

“Do you want me to think that the Heavenly King of the Dark Society killed himself with the self-destruction just now? Was he trying to die with his enemies?”

“Not only that, the Armored Tremor Pig King should have been summoned just before the huge Rock Dragon self-destructed.”

He guessed.

The Dark Society Heavenly King must have also guessed that Su Hao had a way to leave a mark on a sprite.

He couldn’t get rid of it, so he simply abandoned the Snake-Headed Demon.

As for the Dark Society Heavenly King himself, before the protective screen shattered, he wouldn’t be negatively affected. Naturally, he wasn’t marked.

This method…

Su Hao shook his head.

But he had to admit that if it wasn’t for Butterfly’s sharp senses and sensing that something was wrong, he would have almost been fooled.

“The members of the Dark Society are clearly known to be crazy, but why do I feel that the higher-ups are more cowardly?”

At this moment…

Seeing that the icons on the map were still, Su Hao made the Dumb Unicorn fly a little lower. Then, he took out the healing spray and some recovery supplies. They were all high-level goods, so he used them all.

Before long…

Butterfly and Ah Yan had both recovered to 80 to 90 percent before flapping their butterfly wings or waving their black robes and flying down from the colorful cloud.

Butterfly’s figure turned incorporeal, and Ah Yan moved through the shadows.

Not long after…

The two sprites appeared again and flew back to the temporary cloud formation. Ah Yan’s black robe shook, and an Armored Tremor Pig King that had already fallen into the illusion appeared in front of Su Hao.

Ah Yan’s black robe trembled again.

A middle-aged man with messy hair was thrown out.

At this moment, he looked a little miserable. Although his eyes were closed, the expression on his face made him look very frightened.

Perhaps he was in an illusion, experiencing something that couldn’t be described.

He glanced at Butterfly.

Butterfly looked innocent.

“Alright.”

He waved his hand. Ah Yan rolled up his black robe and put away the spoils of war.

They were locked in a solitary cell in the shadow space.

Then…

Su Hao glanced at Butterfly.

Butterfly looked at him.

“Oh right, the siege battle is still ongoing. It’s time to go back. I wonder if those Dark Society members have been captured?”

“Also…”

He looked at Ah Yan’s black robe and asked, “I remember that a few instructors from Rain Forest University and their sprites are still in your shadow space, right?”

“Hu ~!”

Ah Yan nodded.

After they were taken in from the base of the stronghold, there had been continuous battles. There was simply no chance for them to release the instructors of Rain Forest University.

Of course, Su Hao wouldn’t admit that when he was tracking the Dark Society Heavenly King and flying near the valley not long ago, he had temporarily forgotten that there were still so many people in Ah Yan’s shadow space.

Anyway, the process wasn’t important.

It was good enough that everyone was now fine.

“Hu ~!”

“Alright, let them go now… Wait.” He paused. “This place seems to be quite far from the stronghold valley. We have to bring them back after we let them out anyway. Why don’t we keep them in there for now?”

“Hu ~!”

Ah Yan nodded obediently.

Su Hao looked at a certain area in the sky and retracted his gaze. He patted the Dumb Unicorn and flew towards the valley on the cloud.

His figure gradually disappeared into the devastated valley area.

…

In the sky, the Black and White Heavenly King had been in a daze since just now.

It wasn’t until Su Hao flew away that he gradually regained his senses.

“How did they capture a Heavenly King just like that?”

He felt that it was too magical!

The Black and White Heavenly King himself had never captured a high-level official of the Dark Society before!

He had defeated one before.

However, the difficulty of capturing one was on a completely different level.

“How exactly did he do it?”

The Black and White Heavenly King gradually recalled.

He thought about how not long ago, the young inspector had cleverly used tactics to defeat the Sand Earthworm Dragon…

A flash of light suddenly appeared in his mind.

“I got it! All his previous attacks were laying the groundwork, creating a situation where he barely defeated the Sand Earthworm Dragon, in order to let Heavenly King of the Dark Society summon the injured sprite back. Through this, the young inspector was able to find the location of Heavenly King of the Dark Society!”

“In the second battle, he used continuous harassment to force the Heavenly King of the Dark Society into a dead end. At this time… from Heavenly King’s point of view, he indeed had no choice but to choose mutual destruction.”

“But that’s not all…” Black and White Heavenly King thought.

“This inspector Su Hao, he even calculated the character of the Dark Society Heavenly King and deliberately gave the other party a chance… If not for the fact that the Sand Earthworm Dragon had already died and there were other monarch sprites present, it would have been impossible for him to capture a Heavenly King alive!”

“If he didn’t think of all this, how would he have been able to find the Heavenly King who was faking his death so easily?”

It was all connected.

The more he thought about it, the more shocked Black and White Heavenly King became.

This young man had devised all that strategy in order to catch that big fish with his “insignificant” strength!

But actually…

“His strength is probably already enough to defeat a Heavenly King in a head-on battle. It’s already very terrifying.”

When he thought about this and then thought about how he had planned to appear in a carefree manner not long ago, Black and White Heavenly King’s face turned red.

He barely did anything.

At this point, he was even more embarrassed to show his face.

He could only shrink back and continue to hide in the hidden area created by the Holy Brilliance Spirit and Dark Star Spirit.

He sighed.

Then, he chased in the direction where the colorful cloud disappeared.

After all, no matter how strong the young inspector was, as long as his protective work wasn’t over, he had to keep following.

It was really difficult to be a Heavenly King these days.
