In a secluded room.
A woman wrapped entirely in a black robe was anxiously dialing her communicator, but there was no response.
In any team there are always differing opinions; some advocate capturing a few Star Sea Academy students, while others suggest laying low.
The woman in the room was clearly the latter; she was trying to call the young man and the charming woman, but to no avail.
A bad feeling spread through her heart; she sensed that those two had gotten into trouble.
Now their situation in the capital of the White Night Empire remains extremely dire; even if they disagree, those two shouldn't have cut off contact with her.
"No, we must leave the capital of the White Night Empire immediately."
She worships the Slaanesh Demoness only for power and beauty, but she doesn't truly wish to sacrifice herself for the Evil Clan.
She had only recently acquired everything she now possessed when she was dispatched to the White Night Empire on a mission.
With her current power and beauty, she could easily live the life she has always dreamed of; those nobles whose minds are filled only with power, money, and women would be bewitched by her enchanting aura, and only the insane would join those madmen in self-destruction.
"Clang!"
Just as the black-robed woman stood up, the room's door was shattered by a flash of sword light, and a sword-wielding youth entered.
"Who are you?"
Seeing the newcomer, the black-robed woman's complexion changed dramatically.
"Confirmed, it's the Slaanesh Cultists."
Dugu Yi only needed a glance at the black-robed woman to determine her identity.
A Sword Cultivator's Sword Heart is pure and flawless, and the Slaanesh Demoness's power directly opposes a Sword Cultivator's, so Dugu Yi found it easy to discern the other's identity.
When Dugu Yi mentioned the Slaanesh Cultists, the black-robed woman also learned Dugu Yi's identity.
From the sword flash just now, the black-robed woman could be certain she was no match for Dugu Yi.
She raised her hand and gently tugged, and the black robe slipped off her skin onto the floor.
Revealing her curvaceous, boldly exposed body.
"Handsome, am I pretty?"
A seductive smile spread across the black-robed woman's face, and her actions were extremely bold.
"Pretty," Dugu Yi answered honestly.
"So, handsome, do you want..."
Before the black-robed woman could finish speaking, Dugu Yi's sword beheaded her.
"What a pity, beauty can't be used as food."
Sheathing his sword, Dugu Yi turned and left, leaving only the black-robed woman's corpse on the ground.
And such a scene was playing out across various locations in the capital of the White Night Empire.
Star Sea Academy students were like ghosts; no matter how the Slaanesh Cultists hid or disguised themselves, they were all found.
In just a moment, hunters who had infiltrated the capital turned into prey.
They tried every method to evade the hunters, hoping to escape.
Unfortunately, they had no idea what kind of hunters were pursuing them, nor how relentless these hunters were toward the Evil Clan.
"Got you."
A head peeked out from the eaves, eyes fixed on the Slaanesh Cultists hiding in the ruined house corner.
"Buddy, the sewer smell is so strong, I think I'll give you an early release."
A student lifted the sewer manhole cover and said to the bewildered Slaanesh Cultists below.
"It's you lofty bastards who forced us to become the Evil Clan; what did we do wrong?"
"Right, right, you're absolutely correct."
Some Evil Clan members, realizing they were trapped, began resorting to moral blackmail.
Unfortunately, between humans and the Evil Clan, there is no morality to speak of... Hongsi Empire
The royal hall was packed with men and women.
The Slaanesh's power permeated every corner of the hall; from afar, the people looked like writhing maggots on the floor, utterly disgusting.
At that moment, a completely naked, seductive woman rose from the crowd.
She stepped toward the throne in the hall and sat down.
Anyone who followed and crawled to her feet was kicked away.
She lifted her legs, and the Hongsi Empire's emperor instinctively became a footstool beneath her.
"Where is Ti Ji Na? Why haven't we seen her today?"
The woman, almost overtaken by desire, hasn't appeared here yet today.
"Priestess, I heard Ti Ji Na took people to intercept those coming to support Guyue Star."
Upon hearing the seductive woman's answer, a subordinate replied.
"She actually went? Has she already triggered the illusion?"
Since arriving here, Ti Ji Na has constantly clashed with her, now trying to seize control of the ceremony.
Moreover, this time the scandal stems from that scoundrel's inability to control her desire.
She has already ordered the sacrifice preparations, and all responsible parties have concealed their flaws.
Only Ti Ji Na hasn't taken her words to heart, and has caused a huge mess.
If she hadn't launched a coup that seized the entire Hongsi Empire, this operation would have failed.
If it weren't for that scoundrel's mother being a high-ranking clergy, she would have drained her long ago.
Now she is courting death herself; later it has nothing to do with her, except losing a warship.
Although the support from Azure Star gave her a headache, she was already prepared for the final step.
After the sacrifice, she will summon the incarnation of the Beautiful Goddess, and the support from Azure Star will be nothing more than a snack.
She had already placed agents in both the White Night Empire and the Black Rock Empire; once those from Azure Star make a move, they will immediately relay the news to her.
At this moment, the priestess does not know that the agents she placed in the White Night Empire are currently staging a real deathmatch, leaving no time to send her messages... White Night Empire
As evening approached, the students searching for the Slaanesh Cultists gradually returned to the hotel.
"Phew, today was truly a fulfilling day."
"How many Evil Clan members did you kill?"
"Around ten, what about you?"
"Hehe, fifteen for me."
"Twenty for me, laugh?"
"Twenty‑three for me, laugh?"
"Damn, why does everyone have so many? I didn't find any!"
"Looks like you're just not hungry enough."
"Bullshit, if it weren't for the school's flora being protected, I'd have been gnawing bark before I got here."
"Let's go to the cafeteria; let the Guyue Star folks prepare something good and plentiful."
"Helping them kill the Evil Clan and eating them a few times isn't too much, right?"
After returning to the hotel, everyone's first destination was the hotel restaurant.
When the dishes arrived, they dismissed the staff and began a frenzied feast.
