"It turned out to be the boss's bodyguard."
Hearing the little Loli Chen Xi's words, Star Tree and the other Lolis breathed a sigh of relief. Since he was the boss's bodyguard and had also killed the locust mother demon, they trusted him.
Although they had considered usurping the throne just now, they still trusted the World Tree quite a bit, believing that their boss would never try to murder them.
"Gu Chuan, what did you mean earlier? The locust mother demon did it, but isn't she dead?"
Little Loli Chen Xi asked, puzzled.
"She's dead, but she left a spiritual imprint in your lair. Maybe she wanted to kill you and come back to eat your little brother."
Gu Chuan had just lightly scanned with his Divine Sense and instantly located a spot in the old lair of the World Tree, where the spiritual imprint of the locust mother demon was left.
Such a spiritual imprint could remain even after the locust mother demon's death for hundreds of epochs.
However, these plant-type chaos demon gods weren't strong enough to detect the imprint left by the locust mother demon, so it had not been removed until now.
"What? There's indeed a spiritual imprint left by the locust mother demon here. That damn b*****d, is she trying to take us down?" In an instant, little Loli Chen Xi scanned with Divine Sense and found the imprint.
After all, her strength had increased a lot compared to before, and since she had built this place herself, as long as she felt carefully, no foreign object could hide from her.
Immediately, she was both startled and furious. She never expected the locust mother demon to be so vicious—pursuing her and still leaving a mark with the intent to kill her little brother after killing her.
This locust mother demon was indeed an extremely greedy demon, wanting to kill them all. Fortunately, the locust mother demon was killed by her bodyguard, or else their lair would have been in danger.
Boom!
Thinking of this, little Loli Chen Xi channeled the power of her World Tree, instantly instilling it into the world. Green world power surged, causing a slight shake.
With a loud bang, the spiritual imprint was shattered into dust, completely disappearing into the void.
"But even if this is the spiritual imprint left by the locust mother demon, she's dead, and those chaos demon gods aren't locust mother demons. What does this have to do with them?"
Little Loli Chen Xi asked.
"These chaos demon gods are probably friends of the locust mother demon. Maybe she told them where this lair was before she died, and they're chasing you based on that spiritual imprint," Gu Chuan speculated.
Indeed, it was as Gu Chuan had guessed. The moment the spiritual imprint of the locust mother demon was shattered, it was immediately sensed by the chaos demon gods outside.
"Well, it seems the spiritual imprint of the locust mother demon has been found."
The dark spider demon spoke, its voice buzzing as it spoke the language of chaos demon gods. It seemed to cause a ripple in the chaotic air, demonstrating its immense power.
"It doesn't matter. Since we've found the World Tree's old nest, the spiritual imprint is irrelevant," the octopus demon said indifferently.
"I didn't expect the locust mother demon to be killed by a mere plant-type chaos demon god. It's truly unimaginable. I'm curious about what method they used to kill her," the moth demon said, its eyes showing curiosity.
"It's indeed a bit unbelievable. The World Tree shouldn't have had that kind of strength, and the locust mother demon is also the nemesis of the World Tree, with a natural restraining effect.
If it weren't for us chaos demon gods signing the contract, we wouldn't even know the locust mother demon is dead."
Another demon added.
These chaos demon gods were actually companions. To survive in the perilous world of chaos, they had formed an offensive and defensive alliance, living and dying together, never attacking each other.
Thanks to this, the power of dozens of chaos demon gods had been gathered. Other chaos demon gods were no match for them. Even when encountering powerful ones, they would still die under their siege.
In fact, in the current chaotic world, more and more chaos demon gods were uniting with each other, and solo chaos demon gods were becoming rarer, with most of them operating in groups.
The locust mother demon was part of one of these small groups, a minor force.
After signing the contract, their soul marks were placed on the chaotic contract. Even if one party died, the other chaos demon gods would be informed and would be obligated to avenge the fallen.
Even the chaos demon gods before death would leave their death messages for others. Of course, such messages couldn't be too many, and they only conveyed key information.
The message about the spiritual imprint of the World Tree's old nest was left by the locust mother demon.
After the other chaos demon gods received this news, they used the imprint to track down the plant-type chaos demon gods, such as Star Tree.
After all, if they could devour these plant-type chaos demon gods, their strength would increase immensely, which was equivalent to a valuable resource.
Unfortunately, they were too far from the spiritual imprint, and couldn't arrive quickly. Meanwhile, Star Tree and the others were running away in fear.
Along the way, they accidentally encountered other chaos demon gods, fought a great battle, and sustained injuries.
After a long search and rest, they finally found the World Tree's old nest.
