[With the death of the Sky-Devouring Corpse Demon Chang Ronggu,]
[The four surrounding ghost-faced gates suddenly shattered.]
[The Demon Hall guards, who had been blocked outside, rushed in.]
[Among them, one figure was the fastest.]
[That was Bu Haoyan, the sect master of Heavenly Dragon Cliff.]
[He was still holding a bottle of fine spirit wine in his hand.]
[Originally, he had co to the Demon Hall to drink with Ye Yu.]
[But upon arriving, he found that sothing had gone terribly wrong.]
[By the ti he tried to enter, the Corpse Ghost Battle Arena had already sealed him outside.]
[He had been anxious all this ti.]
[Now that he could finally get in, what he saw was Bai Xichu, the Demon Lord, crying uncontrollably.]
[Bu Haoyan imdiately felt a chill run through his body.]
[He was straightforward, but not stupid.]
[When he arrived here, he imdiately realized that he couldn’t sense Ye Yu’s presence.]
[His heart had already begun to suspect.]
[But he refused to believe it.]
[He quickly asked,]
[“Where is my master? Where is he? I need to find him!”]
[Bai Xichu shook her head slightly.]
[Her voice was hoarse as she said,]
[“Husband is no longer here.”]
[Upon hearing this,]
[Bu Haoyan’s body trembled, and he took an incredulous step back.]
[“Master… really isn’t here?”]
[Bu Haoyan’s face turned pale.]
[The surrounding demonic aura beca chaotic.]
[His eyes were hollow.]
[Thinking back on everything that had happened recently,]
[Bu Haoyan felt as though everything was a dream.]
[Since eting Ye Yu, his life had been like playing a ga with cheat codes.]
[Not only had Heavenly Dragon Cliff united as one, but he also earned the title of the most powerful sect in Dongyao Province.]
[He had fulfilled his childhood dream.]
[So, for Bu Haoyan, Ye Yu was not just his master, but also his ntor and close friend.]
[Without Ye Yu,]
[Perhaps he would still be living aimlessly, just like before.]
[But now,]
[Such an important guiding figure in his life,]
[is gone?]
[What is he supposed to do from here on out?]
[Bu Haoyan felt as though he had lost all direction.]
[He was in utter panic.]
[He looked at Bai Xichu, the Demon Lord, whom he had once revered, and whispered,]
[“Why? Why couldn’t you protect Master?”]
[“What’s the point of conquering so much territory if this is the result?”]
[These three short sentences struck Bai Xichu like a thunderclap.]
[Yes!]
[So what if she was the Demon Lord? So what if she had conquered two-thirds of Dongyao Province?]
[In the end, she couldn’t even protect the one she loved.]
[So, what was the aning of being a Demon Lord in this realm?]
[Bai Xichu’s previously black hair began to turn white before the eyes, visibly paling.]
[She slowly stood up.]
[Without a word, she turned and returned to the Demon Hall.]
[Three days later,]
[Bai Xichu used all her power to begin searching for awakened Demon King-level cultivators.]
[She recruited them with powerful techniques, magic artifacts, and rare treasures.]
[Six months later,]
[Bai Xichu ordered an assault on Demon City.]
[On the day the city was broken, she personally led the slaughter,]
[not leaving a single one alive!]
[She was determined to use the entire city of demons as a burial for her husband, Ye Yu.]
[On this day,]
[Bai Xichu completely took control of Dongyao Province and beca the undisputed queen!]
[This event shocked the entire demon realm.]
[A female Demon Lord had unified an entire province so quickly.]
[It was hard to believe.]
[For a ti, all the demons were speculating whether Bai Xichu would continue to conquer other provinces.]
[After all, with the resources of one province, it was easy to conquer a Demon Lord.]
[As a result, the Demon Lords in several provinces began signing non-aggression pacts,]
[preparing to jointly resist Bai Xichu’s invasion.]
[But none of them expected that]
[The silver-haired Bai Xichu, in the place where Ye Yu fell, chose to take her own life.]
[What was the point of becoming the strongest demon lord?]
[It still couldn’t bring her lover back.]
[If it weren’t for her hatred, perhaps Bai Xichu would have left with Ye Yu long ago!]
In the Demon Hall of the Demon Realm.
Bai Xichu slowly opened her eyes.
[She looked around at the familiar surroundings.]
[Her heart was full of confusion.]
[Hadn’t she already chosen to end her life?]
[Why was she here?]
[Bai Xichu stood up slowly, only to find that her previous white hair had disappeared and turned black again.]
[What was going on?]
[Bai Xichu was full of doubt.]
[Unconsciously, she looked toward the hall doors.]
[Since Ye Yu’s death, she had personally carved a jade statue here to relieve her longing.]
[But now, where the statue should have been, it was empty.]
[Bai Xichu imdiately summoned soone to ask.]
[“Where is my husband’s statue?”]
[The Demon Hall guards were imdiately dumbfounded.]
[One of them tentatively asked,]
[“Demon Lord, may I ask who your husband is?”]
[Bai Xichu’s eyes went cold.]
[The guards were imdiately knocked to the ground by an invisible force.]
[Bai Xichu coldly shouted,]
[“Do you all want to die? You dare forget my husband Ye Yu’s na?”]
[The guards covered their faces, almost crying, and said,]
[“Demon Lord, we… we truly didn’t know your husband was Ye Yu.”]
[Upon hearing this,]
[Bai Xichu’s brows furrowed tightly.]
[Didn’t know? How could that be?]
[She had lived with Ye Yu in the Demon Hall for quite so ti.]
[Everyone knew who he was.]
[How could they suddenly claim they didn’t know?]
[Bai Xichu sensed that sothing was wrong.]
[She went to ask many people, including her personal maid.]
[They all seed unfamiliar with Ye Yu, and many had never even heard of him.]
[Bai Xichu began to panic.]
[She started searching for any information about Ye Yu.]
[But she found nothing.]
[Could it be that…]
[Everything that had happened was just a dream?]
[Bai Xichu refused to believe it could be so coincidental.]
[But the facts were right in front of her.]
[Why couldn’t she find any trace of Ye Yu’s existence?]
[Bai Xichu slowly walked into the hall.]
[Just as she was about to sit on the throne,]
[She suddenly shuddered and stopped.]
[Looking up at the map of Dongyao Province behind the throne,]
[In the top left corner, there were two words written.]
[“Heart Love!”]
[These were the words Ye Yu had personally written.]
[Bai Xichu had once asked what those words ant.]
[Ye Yu’s answer had been,]
[“I love you, so I wrote ‘Heart Love’ to let you see my heart!”]
[He was real!]
[Her husband was definitely real!]
[This wasn’t a dream!]
[Bai Xichu’s eyes beca even more determined.]
On the other side,
At Five Finger Peak.
Ye Yu scratched his head.
[He had tried various thods but still couldn’t remove the Succubus Mark on his chest.]
[Moreover, the mark had beco more pronounced.]
[There was no doubt, this was because Bai Xichu had been thinking about him.]
[At this mont,]
[The formation outside the room began to loosen.]
[It was clear that soone was attempting to break the formation.]
[At the sa ti,]
[Dark clouds began to gather above Five Finger Peak.]
