An orange luster abruptly took shape in front of the Star Demon God Pillar, illuminating the ground. And just like that, an orange figure appeared in the center of this pillar of light.

He was seated in midair, his orange gown making him look no different from any ordinary Star Demon. But his pair of eyes seemed able to see through everything, shining like a yellow crystal. If one looked carefully, his eyes looked like an endless night sky.

His long hair draping over his shoulder, he floated calmly, his handsome face visibly looking pale. His body dispersed a mystical aura, exactly the same as the one coming out from the Star Demon God Pillar.

Even though this was the first time the group saw him, a name surged up in everyone from Bright Glimmer of Hope, Star Demon God Vassago.

Everyone had a real inauspicious feeling. Vassago actually revealed himself in here, and at this time, they had lost the ability to summon Haoyue. What could it mean? It meant that this was a trap!

Long Haochen unconsciously blurted out, “Yue Ye!” Right, Yue Ye was definitely the issue. He didn’t expect this to really be a trap, nor had he thought any issue could arise with Yue Ye. This instant, his whole body was drenched in sweat.

But even in such an unfavorable situation, Long Haochen still preserved his calm. He did not hesitate at all to immediately transfer his spiritual energy and mental force with all his might into the Eternal Melody in front of his chest.

An intense bright light instantly arose on his chest, wrapping his whole group inside.

Everyone from Bright Glimmer of Hope was naturally aware of what he was doing, rushing to his side. They clearly had no thoughts of responding: since Vassago had appeared there, he had clearly anticipated their arrival, so their plan was already a failure. Ths being the case, they could only leave as fast as possible. As long as they could return to the Tower of Eternity, they could have a chance to make a comeback in the future.

The bright light vanished rapidly, and how about the group?

Vassago calmly looked at the Eternal Melody activated by Long Haochen, but didn’t show any intent to stop him. His look was still as calm, but also leaked small traces of sadness and disappointment. His face was obviously pale, and he couldn’t help but cough lightly.

The bright light disappeared, but the group was still in place.

Long Haochen, Cai’er, Lin Xin, Wang Yuanyuan and the rest were still on the same spot, standing in front of the Star Demon God. They were not teleported, or anything like that.

“No good!” The look on their faces changed, as Han Yu swiftly charged at the gate of the Star Demon Pagoda. Although they didn’t know what Vassago did for the teleportation to fail, their inability to teleport away was clearly due to the location. Everyone understood that their plans led them to an unredeemable trap. But even at such a time, they still had to struggle, and couldn’t let even the slightest hope escape.

_Bang_. Han Yu struck the door violently, but his body was just repelled back even faster. A soft dark golden gloss then shone in the whole Star Demon Pagoda.

All the dark golden inscriptions on the ground and the walls lit up brightly this instant, and illuminated the whole Star Demon Pagoda lightly.

They couldn’t sense any trace of darkness element in these fantastic elemental fluctuations, but this instant, Long Haochen had clearly sensed that they were already trapped in a sort of cage, a cage from which they had no means of escape.

Their mood was at its lowest level. This instant, Long Haochen had already understood that on this day, they had absolutely no way to escape. But he did not understand how they fell into such an inconceivable trap.

“I can understand your unresignedness and incomprehension.” The Star Demon God Vassago spoke lightly, “You are undoubtedly a high level existence among humans, and even if you are going to die here on this day, you can be proud of your own death. That’s because in order to avoid any accident in killing you, nearly all the forces from my clan were transferred. This plan was already in motion since the start of the Holy War; a plan that involved dozens of millions of individuals. Even if you were even smarter, even more capable and even more blessed in light elemental mastery, you would still have no way to leave from my Star Demon Pagoda. In there, your plans have come to their end.”

Long Haochen took a deep breath, actually calming down in these desperate straits. As it is said, nothing is more wretched than apathy. He already understood that such a grandiose demonic plan couldn’t possibly leave him with the slightest chance. Since things were like that, even if he would die here, that will be after doing his utmost in a struggle against the enemy, doing his utmost to give the most value possible to his death.

“So, things were like that.” Long Haochen’s voice became just as indifferent as he looked at the Star Demon God floating in front of them.

Vassago’s look seemed to contain a lot of praise, “You deserve to know the whole process. You are the only human who could possibly qualify for us to do such things.”

“The instant of your entrance in the Star Demon Pagoda, this plan was at its perfection. But I have known that this would happen since long ago.

“I had seen it all a few years ago.

“Do you think that Yue Ye fooled you? That she drew you into this trap?” Vassago interrogated with a smile. His tone had lost its apathy, and grown a great deal angrier.

Long Haochen asked coldly, “Could it not be the case?”

Vassago shook his head, “Of course not. If she was lying to you so far, how could you not have found out with your senses so sharp? At least you would subconsciously have had some feelings of danger. But right because everything was real, you were finally fooled. Yue Ye was just a portion of this plan. Even now, she does not know that you have fallen into this trap that mobilized our race’s whole forces.”

Long Haochen was slightly shaken, “Yue Ye did not fool us, and was also one of the fooled parties? And you knew about our relation of collaboration beforehand.”

Vassago shook his head once again, “There is nothing we are not aware of. She may think she concealed herself well, but in the end, her Yue Ye Chamber of Commerce is not a united thing. Actually, making her believe what we wanted her to wasn’t hard; the hard part , because a god’s chosen one such as you has a great perception of danger, was to make you believe that your plan was going totally against our expectations as you advanced here, step by step. Any adaptation of our moves to your plans would have greatly aroused your alertness. And I believe that you are a prudent human: if there were traces of danger, your plans would be basically cancelled, am I wrong?”

Long Haochen indifferently replied, “But I have still fallen for your trap.”

Vassago responded, “That’s because this trap was more than perfect. Everything you have encountered appeared totally real, including the part when Yue Ye told you that my cultivation was reduced to a tenth of its peak power. His Majesty the Demon God Emperor and the Moon Demon God also brought out the demon armies to the Exorcist Mountain Pass for real. This Holy War was also made real just for your sake. The combination of so many real facts couldn’t be doubted in your eyes. Which is why you are here right now.”

Long Haochen had a blank look, “But isn’t it a fact that your strength is only at a tenth of its peak? Even if I cannot summon Haoyue, even if I cannot bring him here, and am unable to destroy your demon god pillar, just killing you will be enough to make our death worth it.”

Vassago showed a faint smile, “You are wrong. The trade is not worth it at all for your side. Exchanging my life for yours is actually a profit for my race, a great profit. That’s because you are the only possible threat to our existence that has ever arisen over the past six thousand years since our descent into Shengmo Dalu. If we let you keep growing, there will be a day that you will become a real threat to my race. This is why I used the Great Prophecy Technique at the cost of my life expectancy, to unleash a real Great Prophecy Technique.

“I have seen a lot, a real lot. Even if that was at the cost of a hundred years of life expectancy, this was worth it for the future of demons. I have seen your astonishing growth speed, seen the sight of you killing my kin, and seen the process of you coming here inevitably after stopping at the Exorcist Mountain Pass. For sure, I wasn’t able to grasp everything clearly, and even experienced obscure changes in the great prophecies after you arrived there. But I have been able to sense that this was the only chance we had to kill you, and to kill Austin Griffin. If this did not turn out successful, the next sight would be the doom of my race. So no matter what, you won’t ever leave from here.

“You are the one chosen by the Goddess of Light… Actually, you alone wouldn’t be sufficient to be such an enormous threat for our race. And, actually, we only have to kill Austin Griffin and no more. Even with our absolute strength, we are still unwilling to face him, because he is the only one to have the ability to breach the protective barrier we have erected. We are unwilling to let the slightest risk appear. So with you here, he just cannot come. And as long as you die, even if his blood was even stronger, the only fate for him is to follow yours. You were the one to bring him in this world, so his life can only terminate alongside yours. Don’t you want to know what he is? Why we dread him to such an extent, and not only me, but even His Majesty as well?”
