A headless corpse finally collapsed into the pool of blood.

Morren’s head rolled like a ball to Hades’ feet, where she stomped it into pieces with one foot. This was to prevent Morren from resurrecting, as his soul resided in the head of this body.

"It’s finally over."

Xiao Zheng let out a long sigh, speaking with some emotion.

The counterattack from Morren just before his death had still exerted immense pressure on him. Without Hades’ help, if he had faced Morren alone, even if he managed to kill Morren, he would have been seriously injured.

After all, Morren had already stepped into the Supreme Realm, and his strength deserved some recognition.

"How are you?"

Hades walked up to Xiao Zheng and asked.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "I’m fine, just a bit exhausted. Speaking of which, this guy really was unlucky, choosing such a poor place to be his battleground of choice."

"If it were outside, he might have escaped again."

Hearing his words, Hades said domineeringly, "Even if it were outside, he couldn’t escape."

Xiao Zheng shrugged, saying nothing.

After resting for a while, his energy finally recovered.

Xiao Zheng stood up energetically again, then glanced at the nearby blood pool and said, "Leaving something like this in the world will eventually become a disaster, so it’s better to take this opportunity to destroy it."

"Including the underground palace beneath your temple, I also wouldn’t recommend keeping it."

Upon hearing this, Hades nodded and said, "This time, I definitely won’t hesitate again."

The implication in her words was that she had once considered destroying the blood pool but ultimately didn’t take action. If she had destroyed it earlier, the resurrections of Morren and others wouldn’t have happened.

This exactly aligns with the notion of cause and effect.

You reap what you sow.

After Xiao Zheng adjusted his body, he slowly walked to the blood pool. At this time, the blood inside was nearly dried up, almost to the bottom. Moreover, the power inside was very thin, likely absorbed by Morren.

"I’ll proceed then."

Xiao Zheng said.

Hades nodded without speaking.

Xiao Zheng didn’t hesitate either; he struck a blow directly at the demon statue located at the center of the blood pool. Just one punch, and it destroyed the demon statue along with the blood pool.

Curiously enough.

It was unclear whether it was a psychological effect or due to some other reason.

Once the demon statue and blood pool were destroyed, Xiao Zheng felt as though the world before him suddenly became vivid. It was like a thin veil had been removed from his sight, clearing the view.

After checking thoroughly, Hades said, "Let’s go."

Xiao Zheng nodded, then followed her out of the Ancestor Cave.

Half an hour later.

They returned to the Netherworld King Temple.

Night had fallen, and the large Netherworld King Temple, under the cloak of night, appeared even more imposing. Like an ancient giant beast perched atop a mountain, the open doors of the temple served as its agape mouth, seemingly capable of swallowing everything.

Upon entering the grand hall, Hades lightly waved her sleeve, and the Everlasting Lamps instantly lit up.

Only then did the Netherworld King Temple gain a hint of warmth.

Shortly after the two returned, an attendant came to serve them.

Seated on the long-lost Divine Throne, Hades said to Xiao Zheng, "You’ve had a long day, let them take you to rest first. Tomorrow morning, I’ll order the announcement of the demise of Morren and his followers."

Feeling somewhat tired himself, Xiao Zheng did not refuse.

He then followed an attendant to a guest room to rest.

The night passed without words.

When Xiao Zheng awoke, Hades had already announced the deaths of Morren and his followers.

This news exploded like a bomb across the European continent!

Everyone was astounded by the power of Hades and Xiao Zheng, as no one imagined they could kill three former kings of the Blood Clan!

For a time, Hades and Xiao Zheng’s reputation in Europe reached its peak!

Even the previously restless and disloyal Blood Clan members now accepted their fate and bowed to Hades!

After settling this affair, Hades and Xiao Zheng joined forces to prepare the destruction of the blood pool beneath the temple. Without eliminating the blood pool, there was no guarantee against a recurrence of the Morren incident.

After all, five Blood Clan ancestors were still dormant in the blood pool.

According to Hades, these five were even stronger than the three defeated by Morren.

Upon learning this, Xiao Zheng was even more determined to destroy the blood pool. His motive was not for himself but for Hades’ safety.

After all, the blood pool was right beneath the temple, akin to sitting over an atomic bomb that could explode at any moment.

"Let’s begin."

In the grand hall, Xiao Zheng said to Hades.

Hades nodded and proceeded to activate the mechanism.

But at that moment, an attendant suddenly hurriedly ran in from outside, immediately kneeling and saying, "Greetings, Lord Netherworld, and Lord Evil God! Nine elders are seeking an audience outside the temple!"

Nine elders?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng glanced at Hades with a puzzled expression.

Hades was equally perplexed but soon sat on the Divine Throne and said, "I understand, bring them in."

The attendant complied, respectfully leaving the hall.

After the attendant left, Xiao Zheng couldn’t help asking curiously, "Why would the elders of your Blood Clan come here at such a time? Did they receive some news and come to stop us from destroying the blood pool?"

"Possibly," Hades replied.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng felt a surge of annoyance, "What a bunch of scoundrels. When you were besieged by Morren and the others, these guys all acted like cowards and didn’t show up!"

"Not helping is one thing, but now they even dare to stop you from destroying the blood pool!"

"They deserve to die!"

Xiao Zheng turned towards the hall’s entrance, radiating a menacing aura.

Although Hades didn’t respond, her gaze held a similar chill.

The attendant returned, followed by nine individuals.

These were Blood Clan elders, whose status within the clan could be considered second only to the leader. Originally, there were thirteen elders in the Blood Clan, but four had perished during the Morren incident.

As the nine appeared together in the temple, a mocking smile appeared on Xiao Zheng’s face.
