Chapter 771 Hecate\'s Arrival

Given the strength of Abaddon and his remaining Vampire Lords, it would only take an instant to reduce entire human cities to rubble. There was too big a difference between the two sides.

As such, she didn\'t see how Vaan\'s side could resist Abaddon\'s invasion unless she arrived in time.

However, she was also aware that she would undoubtedly arrive late, given the enormous distance she had to travel to reach her destination and the short notice she received.

Gehenna was considered a single realm, but it comprised seven habitable planets and two dead planets, all interconnected by countless transference arrays--such that even the weakest of existences could freely travel between them.

Otherwise, crossing several hundred million kilometers wouldn\'t take a mere half an hour, especially for those who have not stepped into the Divine and comprehended the Law of Space.

Nevertheless, when Hecate arrived at the Evernight Territory\'s Vladigold City, she found the situation and scene quite different from her imagination.

She didn\'t expect several ten million vampires were still camping around the city. Given the passage of time, they should have already invaded Pangea.

However, Hecate soon noticed the enormous black pillar sealing Pangea\'s entrance.

Her eyes widened with surprise at its sheer size. She knew it wasn\'t there the last time she visited the place.

Furthermore, not just anyone could have moved such a massive object there, not even her, who was at the tenth stage of the Divine Dream Realm and comprehended seven different laws.

Only someone who has comprehended the Earth Law or Space Law to a high level could have done so. Moreover, their control over them had to be exceptional.

\'This should be Sir Vaan\'s doing,\' Hecate quickly concluded.

Given its powerful gravitational field, she had to admit it was a very effective move in halting the vampire race\'s advance. Unfortunately, it could only delay Abaddon and the Vampire Lords, not stop them.

Seeing the slight opening atop the slanted side of the black pillar, Hecate quickly realized they had already entered Pangea.

As such, she also increased her pace.

Hecate wrapped herself in multiple protective layers of law to negate the black pillar\'s pressure, then darted straight through the opening.

...

On the other side, the Fifth Progenitor, the Eighth Progenitor, and the rest of the Vampire Lords immediately sensed Hecate\'s divine might descending on the world.

Their bodies subconsciously felt weak, especially after Hecate directed her sharp gaze at them.

Although Hecate found it strange that the Vampire Lords were idly camping near the black pillar instead of creating atrocities in the human city, she didn\'t lower her guard.

As such, the Vampire Lords almost pissed themselves out of fear after they bore the brunt of her divine pressure. Even the Fifth Progenitor and the Eighth Progenitor were not spared from her oppressive aura.

In particular, the Eighth Progenitor suffered the most due to his damaged divine soul. Hecate\'s pressure instantly shaved off several years of his dwindling lifespan.

"Your Ladyship, have mercy! I am on Lord Vaan\'s side!" the Eighth Progenitor squealed tragically.

Being on the same side didn\'t spare him from a close experience with the butcher\'s knife.

Hecate didn\'t withdraw her oppressive aura immediately after hearing the Eighth Progenitor\'s plea. On the contrary, she focused her oppressive aura on him, intensifying the pressure as she scrutinized him.

This caused the Eighth Progenitor to almost cough up blood in anger on the spot. That was another several years of his lifespan gone.

His damaged divine soul simply couldn\'t bear the pressure.

\'What did I do?! What did I do!? Why are you singling me out like this?!\' the Eighth Progenitor screamed in his mind.

He didn\'t dare to curse Hecate directly.

His mind quickly churned before he added, "I have sworn my loyalty and service to Lord Vaan, Your Ladyship! Please believe me on this! You only need to look at the situation here to confirm this!"

"None of the Vampire Lords are attacking humans because of my persuasion, under Lord Vaan\'s instruction!" the Eighth Progenitor desperately and shamelessly claimed.

The Fifth Progenitor looked at him speechlessly.

Although it was true that the Vampire Lords ultimately chose not to attack because of the Eighth Progenitor, he was the one who did most of the persuading.

Nevertheless, he chose not to refute the Eighth Progenitor\'s words out of consideration for his plight.

Meanwhile, Hecate finally withdrew her oppressive aura after confirming the situation. At the same time, she was greatly surprised by Vaan\'s ability to earn the allegiance of a Vampire Lord with a higher cultivation than him.

Just how did he do this?

After learning more about Vaan\'s feats, Hecate\'s interest in him only grew. He was the biggest abnormality she had ever encountered.

"This Soul Replenishing Essence will help you recoup your loss."

Hecate casually withdrew a vial of glowing grey liquid from her interspatial ring and tossed it to the Eighth Progenitor, treating it like something trivial.

However, everyone was immediately shocked by her words.

After all, anything that could improve or recover the soul was undoubtedly precious and priceless. However, Hecate couldn\'t care less about what they thought.

"Where is Abaddon and Sir Vaan?" Hecate immediately demanded with a strict tone.

"T-The Blood Ancestor and Lord Vaan are in the dark void beyond the sky, Your Ladyship. According to what I saw, it should be somewhere close to this world\'s moon," the Eighth Progenitor answered nervously with a mixture of joy and fear as he held onto the vial of Soul Replenishing Essence.

He had just gone through hell and back, yet he felt happy overall.

Did he enjoy the abuse?

"Near the moon, huh?" Hecate softly repeated before nodding with approval.

Vaan\'s choice was certainly well-thought and not randomly picked.

In such a location, she could draw out the best of her moon power, increasing their odds of defeating Abaddon. She only hoped she wasn\'t too late.

"You lot best behave while I\'m gone!"

Hecate left the Vampire Lords with a warning before she immediately soared into the heavens.

After Hecate disappeared from sight, the Vampire Lords finally sighed with relief.

The oppressive pressure from a Great Devil was truly frightening. On this point, the Eighth Progenitor couldn\'t agree more.

They had never met Great Devil Hecate, but such astonishing pressure could only belong to her.

"Fuck me dead. That was so scary," the Eighth Progenitor cussed.
