That very night, Xu Nanqiao explained everything to Ye Yu.
It turned out that when the demons saw the Demon Realm news proclaiming “Ye Yu Conquers Heaven Alone,”
everyone erupted in excitent!
Although Ye Yu was a controversial figure among the demons,
the notion of a single person conquering heaven was utterly shocking—and it was the dream of every demon. Naturally, they all wanted to rally to the cause!
Thus, every powerful demon voluntarily rushed to the portal to the Celestial Realm, ready to ascend and aid Ye Yu!
But there was one rule:
not a single Demon Lord from the Nine Provinces of the Demon Realm went through!
They had learned from their predecessors’ downfall: no matter how much they were cursed, they would never set foot in the Celestial Realm!
It wasn’t that they didn’t love the Demon Realm, but because Ye Yu was there!
Among those Demon Lords was Xu Nanqiao herself.
She knew Ye Yu’s temper too well. Conquer heaven?
How could he—his Immortal Companion was still up there! He certainly wouldn’t launch an assault!
So when the demons gathered at the gateway, Xu Nanqiao stayed away from the commotion.
But upon hearing Mo Geilian’s retelling, she couldn’t help laughing uncontrollably!
What a coincidence—coincidence opening the door to coincidence!
If Ye Yu had been late by even a cup of tea, those ten thousand demons would have ascended!
Then it would have been another battle to conquer heaven!
Such a farce—impossible not to laugh!
They say the demon who wrote that news article was soon captured and is now undergoing torture.
Those furious Demon Realm elites will rcilessly tornt him so he learns the price of writing nonsense!
Ye Yu couldn’t help but ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) smile at the tale.
Just then, Xu Nanqiao approached and sniffed him over carefully.
“It seems you really didn’t go to find Gan Zhizui. There’s no trace of her scent on you.”
Ye Yu’s brows darkened. Was that her inspection?
Xu Nanqiao chuckled softly and didn’t deny it.
Ye Yu imdiately drew her into his arms.
“If her scent isn’t here, then let bask in yours!”
In the days that followed,
Ye Yu began devouring countless books and training diligently, striving to fracture the void and glimpse the radiance of the Divine Realm!
When Xu Nanqiao learned of his ambition,
her own pressure multiplied.
But she did not dissuade him. Instead, determined to be with Ye Yu forever, she too devoted herself to cultivation—aiming to fracture the void and ascend together!
Perhaps pressure is the very source of motivation!
In less than a hundred years, Xu Nanqiao successfully stepped into the Half-Step Emperor Realm!
In that sa year,
Lotusflower State welcod a not-unfamiliar guest:
a plump young demon nad Bai Xiao!
Upon hearing of his arrival, Ye Yu considered and decided to receive him.
When the two t,
Bai Xiao’s gaze was imdiately drawn to the demon horns on Ye Yu’s head and the dense demonic aura surrounding him!
He couldn’t help but laugh.
“How should I address you? Demon Lord Ye? Or Immortal Friend Ye?”
Ye Yu replied with a smile, “Just call Demon Friend Ye. It’s not work hours—you needn’t be so formal!”
“I know you must have many questions. But I can tell you: I was always a demon!”
Bai Xiao nodded and didn’t dwell on it, then shared his own story.
For centuries he had been in seclusion. Only after a recent breakthrough did he erge.
He never expected that every piece of news he heard concerned Ye Yu!
At first, he thought it was soone of the sa na.
But when he saw Ye Yu’s appearance in the Liushi Stone,
Bai Xiao was utterly stunned!
He had imagined countless possibilities,
but never believed it—so he ca in person to see. And indeed, it was Ye Yu, with whom he had once crossed paths!
Bai Xiao chuckled and shook his head, then looked at Ye Yu and continued, “You’re already Demon Emperor Realm, right? In recent years you’ve behaved unusually calmly. Planning to try my idea—to fracture the void and ascend to the Divine Realm?”
“Exactly,” Ye Yu said openly.
Bai Xiao raised his hand to cast a soundproof formation.
“I actually have a favor to ask. In Juque State there grows a heavenly treasure called the Hidden Spirit Flower, with potent dicinal properties. If refined into a pill, it would greatly benefit a demon’s physique. Unfortunately, it’s guarded by a Demon Emperor Realm expert whom I can’t contend with. So I hope you’ll help obtain the Hidden Spirit Flower. In return, once the pill is made, I will give you one. What do you say?”
Ye Yu did not refuse.
Though his cultivation of Demon Ascension had already surpassed all demons, who wouldn’t want to beco stronger beyond the strongest?
Besides, slaying a Demon Emperor for Ye Yu was rely a way to gain combat experience.
Hardly a great difficulty!
After agreeing, the two wasted no ti and headed to Juque State.
In a secluded canyon they broke through several layers of magical constraints, finally arriving at the Hidden Spirit Flower Bai Xiao longed for.
Its transparent petals looked exceedingly mysterious.
Beside it stood a middle-aged demon with a lancholic expression.
Seeing Ye Yu and Bai Xiao arrive, he was not surprised.
He rely said coldly, “Bai Xiao, is your thieving heart still unsettled? This ti, I may show no rcy!”
“Feng Kai, enough talk—let’s fight!” Bai Xiao replied, then whispered telepathically to Ye Yu, “Hold him off for a hundred breaths and I’ll seize the flower and retreat safely. Of course, if you wish to kill him, so much the better!”
Ye Yu did not speak; he rely raised an eyebrow.
Feng Kai—this na was sowhat familiar.
He was the Demon Emperor Realm powerhouse who had battled Tang Tianjia’s senior apprentice brother, Kuang Mingkui, for over a century!
Yet he t Ye Yu under such circumstances.
Before Ye Yu could ponder further, Feng Kai struck!
Bai Xiao, leaving only the reminder “Be careful,” then completely vanished.
Ye Yu slowly lifted his head, tapped the void with his fingertip, and used his Dream Demon innate ability to enter Feng Kai’s dream. Feng Kai’s form froze—then he swiftly broke the dream and launched another assault!
But Ye Yu simultaneously unleashed his Thousand Dreams Illusion!
This ti, Feng Kai froze completely in midair!
After several breaths,
the Demon Emperor Realm powerhouse Feng Kai fell!
From the canyon depths ca applause—
“Impressive! Truly worthy of the one I value!”
It was Bai Xiao, who had not revealed himself nor taken the Hidden Spirit Flower.
