"Therefore, I often wander through every corner of the human realms, learning their culture and spirit to supplent my own and fill myself with wisdom."
Ye Miedie was stunned. "Really?"
Wang Xiu replied candidly, "Of course. And it’s not just . A million years ago in the Demon Realm, there was a supre expert who was stuck at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm for thousands of years, unable to make any progress. Later, he entered the world of the Human Race, hid his identity, and absorbed their wisdom. He finally understood his own way and beca a Demon Emperor of his generation!"
"Gasp... The story you’re telling... I think my mother ntioned it before." Ye Miedie’s eyes lit up. It seems what the Formless Demon said is true. No wonder this Formless Demon is so clever! He knows everything and can always enlighten ! It seems I, the Little Witch, must also find an opportunity to thoroughly study the wisdom of the Human Race!
"So... since you’re not familiar with human culture, I’ll tell you a story from the Demon Realm instead."
Wang Xiu thought for a mont and continued, "A long, long ti ago in the Demon Realm, there was a young man whose woman was stolen by his enemies. They drove him out of his clan, and before he left, they forced him to crawl between their legs just to be let go."
"Gasp... That’s outrageous! If it were , I’d rather die than crawl!" The Little Witch’s eyes widened, completely engrossed in Wang Xiu’s story.
"He crawled. He did so gladly and without a mont’s hesitation, while others jeered at him. After he left, he swore to take his revenge. He worked hard for thousands of years and eventually beca a Great Demon. He then fought his way back and slaughtered the entire clan that had humiliated him, not sparing a single soul. Think about it, if he had refused to endure the humiliation and been killed right then, would any of the rest have happened?"
Ye Miedie shook her head.
"So you see, this story teaches us that to be a demon, you must be patient and able to endure grievances. Only by suffering in the short term can you beco the greatest of demons! This tale is also known as the ’Humiliation of Crawling Between the Legs’!" Wang Xiu explained fervently.
"How impressive! What was the na of this Great Demon?" Ye Miedie asked, her eyes shining like stars.
"His na was... Old Demon Han!" Wang Xiu’s eyes shifted as he prayed silently in his heart. Great Immortal sir! No offense, no offense! A child’s words an no harm! Amitabha, Heavenly Venerable Tianzun, Armored Warrior Kabuto, Kakarot, Vegeta...
"I understand! I must find the humans and join forces with them to fight Demon Sea Island!" Ye Miedie was deeply moved, her eyes firm.
But a new problem soon erged. "So who exactly do I look for? I hardly know anyone from the Human Race..."
Wang Xiu said earnestly, "I’ve already chosen soone for you! The Saint Heir of Sanqing, Wang Xiu. He has a noble character, a handso appearance, exceptional talent, and a pure heart. He is well-read and possesses great wisdom, grand strategies, and lofty aspirations—a truly ambitious young man! Moreover, as far as I know, he’s currently troubled by his inability to enter Demon Sea Island and disrupt their sches. Your Boundary Break Shuttle can help him imnsely! He will definitely be your most suitable ally!"
Wang Xiu... I’ve heard his na! Ye Miedie muttered to herself before turning to leave.
"Where are you going?" Wang Xiu quickly called after her.
"To find Wang Xiu! Isn’t that what you told to do?" Ye Miedie retorted.
"You can’t go so openly. Your identity is extraordinary, after all. The Human Race is as jumpy as a flock of startled birds when it cos to the Demon Race. If you go there like this... a group of Human Saints will fly down and kill you before you even open your mouth. Do you really think those few weaklings from the Asura Sect can protect you?" Wang Xiu said, his voice laced with frustration at her naivete.
"Oh, that’s right!" Ye Miedie chuckled nervously, scratching her head in embarrassnt.
"Sigh, fine. Since I’m helping a demon, I might as well see it through to the end. I’ll try to contact Wang Xiu for you. He’s a pretty open-minded person... as long as you approach him with the right attitude, he’ll most likely accept your proposal."
"Really!?" Ye Miedie’s eyes lit up with excitent. She pounced on Wang Xiu and hugged him tightly. "Mmm... you’re too good, Formless! I’m so glad I have you!"
Wang Xiu’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Ah! This damned sense of oppression! Is this the pressure from a woman destined to beco a Great Demon God?
The full moon rose, its pure light coating the sea with a silver brilliance, making it resemble a luminous, treasured mirror from afar.
Dressed in white, Wang Xiu stood on a reef with his hands behind his back, gazing in the direction of Demon Sea Island. His figure was solitary and proud, as if he might ascend to immortality at any mont.
PATTER.
Footsteps sounded from behind.
"You’re here?" Wang Xiu said indifferently.
"I am here."
"You shouldn’t have co."
"Why?" Ye Miedie asked, puzzled.
"Do you realize how many people in that distant city want you dead?" Wang Xiu turned to look at her, his gaze so faint it held not a trace of emotion.
The colossal city flickered in and out of existence in the distant void, emanating an invisible glow. Ye Miedie glanced at it and felt her heart quicken, an inexplicable panic and imnse pressure washing over her. There was an exceedingly large number of powerful experts in that city, but none of them exerted more pressure than the young man before her. His eyes were like a calm sea, deeper than the ocean itself—completely inscrutable.
"You... you can’t kill ! I’m going to be the woman of a Great Demon God!" Ye Miedie said, suddenly growing nervous and clutching at her ample chest.
Wang Xiu was speechless.
He had only wanted to act differently from the Formless Demon to prevent Ye Miedie from sensing anything. He never imagined he would cause her so much stress.
He sighed inwardly. "I heard you were looking for ," he said, cutting straight to the point.
"Yes. I know you want to enter Demon Sea Island, and I can help you," Ye Miedie replied.
"Hmm?" Wang Xiu raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. "And your reason is?"
