Inside the Nameless Main Hall, the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.
Whether it was Leticia and Algol, who were watching the show, or Jack, who was preparing to help.
No one expected Lin Que to suddenly make such a bold move, and their minds were momentarily stunned.
"Ugh... so scary."
Just then, Vella, one of the parties involved, finally came to her senses, pushing Lin Que away and creating distance.
But as soon as she turned her head, she saw Maxwell not far away, looking at her with bloodshot eyes and a twisted expression.
Following her body's instinct, she retreated again, quietly shrinking behind Lin Que.
From the current situation, this side was still scarier.
"Vella! Vella!!!"
Noticing Vella's small movement, Maxwell, who was already in a state of madness, became even more mentally unstable.
"Why! Why are you treating me like this!"
"You're supposed to be my bride, and I've worked so hard for you!"
"Why would you rather choose a stranger you just met instead of me!!!" 19
"Does that even need asking?"
Lin Que wrapped an arm around the voluptuous loli beside him: "On one side is a mentally unstable madman, and on the other is a handsome, kind-hearted person."
"Anyone with a normal brain would know which to choose."
"I see! I understand!"
Crimson tears of blood flowed from Maxwell's eyes, and he suddenly let out a frantic laugh.
"It's him! This guy must be coercing you!"
"My dear bride, wait a moment!"
"Even if it costs me my life! I will save you!!"
"No."
With a wolf in front and a tiger behind, Vella, who could only stand behind the relatively normal Lin Que, refused with tears in her eyes and a slight tremor in her body.
"Even if I die, I won't go with you."
"No! This is definitely fake!"
Maxwell's body suddenly appeared behind Lin Que, reaching out to grab Vella.
"You must be coerced by this hateful guy! This is definitely not your true feelings!"
"Too slow."
In less than a blink of an eye, Maxwell's arm instantly exploded into a mist of blood.
Then, before he could react and teleport away, a hand suddenly clamped around his neck, lifting him up.
"How pathetic, Maxwell."
Lin Que looked at him with pity: "Your strength and abilities are quite good, yet you can only remain single until death."
"Thinking of your miserable end, I can't help but want to shed tears."
Maxwell glared angrily at Lin Que: "You..."
"Goodbye."
Lin Que released his grip on the opponent's neck, letting his body fall.
The next instant, a terrifying blow strong enough to destroy stars landed on his chest, instantly killing every cell within his body.
Bang—!
Under everyone's gaze, Maxwell's body completely disintegrated, and a crimson blood mist dispersed throughout the Nameless Main Hall's main hall.
"Leticia."
"Leave it to me, Master."
Black shadows spread from Leticia's feet, transforming into a giant shadow beast that swallowed the blood mist in the air in one gulp.
Thus, the four-digit Demon Lord Maxwell completely disappeared from this world.
"Boring."
Not far away, Algol, who had pulled out a bag of snacks from somewhere, pouted, a look of disappointment on her face.
"I thought you'd play around a bit more, but you just killed him off so quickly."
"What else could I do besides kill him? Wait for him to react and run away?"
No matter what, Maxwell was still a four-digit Demon Lord who possessed Boundary Power.
If the opponent truly intended to escape, even Lin Que wouldn't have been able to resolve it immediately.
Of course, this wasn't an issue of movement speed.
It was mainly that if he wanted to race against spatial teleportation with his physical body, the power unleashed would undoubtedly be incredibly terrifying.
At that time, the mere aftershocks from his journey would probably cause unimaginable destruction.
To prevent such a thing from happening, it was better not to play too wildly.
If he overdid it and crashed, it wouldn't be convenient to explain to his allies.
Thinking of this, Lin Que turned slightly, his gaze falling upon Vera, who had run to a corner and hidden.
"Let me state this beforehand, I'm not like that mentally unstable stalker."
A smile appeared on Lin Que's face: "I told you in advance that you'd need to pay a price to keep her."
"You agreed, and that's why I did it, isn't it?"
"But..."
You didn't say it would be this kind of price.
Vera looked at Lin Que with awe, feeling that his words were filled with a strange, illusory quality.
"Ahaha~ Vera, calm down."
Just as the atmosphere was becoming awkward, Jack, the pumpkin head, suddenly walked out from the side, letting out a burst of laughter.
"Although the process was somewhat unexpected, Leader Lin Que did indeed meet our requirements, didn't he?"
"Stop being willful, hurry up and come out to thank him."
As a smart person, Jack naturally could tell that Lin Que had been deliberate just now.
But no matter what, the other party had indeed fulfilled his promise.
He completely dealt with Maxwell before he could escape.
From the moment the commission was given to its completion, it didn't take a total of ten minutes.
Within such a short time, Lin Que had solved a problem that had plagued them for hundreds of years.
In Jack's opinion, paying a small price was not a loss.
"...I apologize, I was a bit agitated."
After Jack's brief persuasion, Vera finally calmed down from her panic.
Looking at Lin Que not far away, she spoke with considerable nervousness.
"Thank you for your help."
"No need to thank me, you've already paid the reward."
Lin Que took out the pre-designed alliance flag, gestured towards Vera, and showed a meaningful smile.
To be honest, Lin Que didn't really care much about Wu Ming's legacy; it was purely to fulfill Black Rabbit's wish.
As for having Willowisp join the alliance, that was simply for Vera, the loli with huge breasts.
After binding Wu Ming and Willowisp together through the alliance, future interactions would be much more convenient.
"Please take care of me from now on, Vera."
"Ugh..."
Tears started to well up in Vera's eyes again.
The problem seemed not only unresolved but had grown larger.
