Zhang Xiaolong [3] imdiately opened the map to search for the location of the two mysterious cultivators, and he found one of them flying very quickly towards the northeast, which was his current location. 'Shang Guangming? Where did they co from exactly? Why did they use this realm's demons to invade other realms?
Moreover, I have never t a cultivator who could fly that fast; even Tian Jiyuan could not fly as fast as him, which ans he is a cultivator in the seven divine realms.'
[That's right, Master. You shouldn't be surprised by Shang Guangming's speed, as he is indeed a cultivator in the seven divine realms. However, I'm not sure that he was the one who subdued the demon emperor of this realm, and he might have been helped by his seniors to do so.
Anyway, since the demon emperor city is in the north and this area is in the northeast, he will arrive here faster than you might expect—at most, five hours.]
Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded in understanding, and he then looked for the location of another mysterious cultivator. He found Shang Yaolin flying towards the west, so he didn't think much of him. "Old Demon, do you know where to hide them? They are currently busy absorbing the demon aura in this realm to strengthen themselves, so I don't want to disturb them."
"Hahaha." Arbeola laughed before shifting slightly from his spot, and Zhang Xiaolong [3] saw an underground staircase appear below him. "As I said three days ago, the deceased fourth demon emperor deliberately planted in this forest to protect it, and the area below was his private quarter, which was also his final resting place.
Even the fifth and current demon emperors knew nothing about this place, and we tree demons deliberately moved his corpse here underground, which was according to his request when he was still alive."
Zhang Xiaolong [3] was a little surprised to hear that. "It seems that the deceased fourth demon emperor was very loved by the demons in this realm, huh?"
"That's right, kid." Arbeola answered with a nod. "The deceased fourth demon emperor was the best emperor this realm has ever had, and he loved his people very much, unlike the current demon lord. Even people from other realms, including human and beast cultivators, respected him greatly, especially since he treated everyone equally.
However, he can also be very cruel, and he will not hesitate to kill anyone, especially those who have malicious intentions towards this realm and its inhabitants. Unfortunately, he is the emperor with the shortest life, and he only lives for ten thousand years."
Arbeola's last sentence made Zhang Xiaolong [3] smile bitterly, especially since ten thousand years is not a short ti, and it is certainly very long. However, he wasn't surprised by that either, especially since Oz had also lived that long; even Zygoz and Ursula had lived more than fifty thousand years. "Is it okay if I take them inside?
After all, the place below is the resting place of the deceased fourth demon emperor, so I don't want to disturb his rest."
"You can bring these little girls down, and those mysterious cultivators won't be able to detect their presence."
Following Arbeola's statent, Zhang Xiaolong [3] imdiately lifted the four female demons with his aura and brought them to the room below. There was nothing there except a golden coffin containing the deceased fourth demon emperor's skeleton, and he imdiately placed them there before kowtowing in front of the coffin as a sign of respect.
Zhang Xiaolong [3] decided not to accompany the female demons, but he left a note for them before rushing out again, especially since he had many abilities to escape from Shang Guangming.
Moreover, he was curious about their purpose in using the demons from the Netherworld Realm to invade the Sky Jade Realm, which he suspected was related to the ten-tailed fox, so he wanted to take the opportunity to find out information about it.
"Are you sure you want to stay here, Kid?" As he returned to his original spot, Arbeola asked, making the stairs leading to the lower room disappear beneath him again. "That guy is stronger than us, so I can't protect you if he actually cos here, and he might kill you."
Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded at Arbeola as he spoke to reassure him. "Old Demon, I admit that my strength is still too weak, but I have a few tricks up my sleeves, and I am confident that I can escape from that man if he really wants to kill , so you don't have to worry about .
Moreover, they are using the demons of this realm to invade my realm, so I want to dig up information about their purpose there."
In fact, Arbeola himself was curious about Shang Guangming and Shang Yaolin's purpose, especially since no other living being had ever dared to suppress the demon emperor of the Netherworld Realm before. However, the two of them dared to do so, and they could even make him so obedient to their orders.
"All right, you should prepare yourself from now on in case that man cos here, so you can run away imdiately if he has bad intentions towards you."

In a faraway realm, a middle-aged man who was none other than Shang Chenguang hurriedly ran into a large and spacious residence, and there were various kinds of beasts living in the residence, so of which were red dragons.
A while later, Shang Chenguang had arrived at the back of the residence, where two middle-aged n were playing a board ga similar to Go, and they were accompanied by two middle-aged won, who were busy joking with each other.
One of the n had a fierce face with three claw marks on his left eye, and he had spiky red hair. His figure was tall and bulky, resembling a bodybuilder, yet it was evident from his appearance that he only had a right arm, particularly because the left sleeve of his robe was hung empty.
The other man looked like n in general, and his face was slightly handso with his long grayish-black hair tied back with a ribbon. His figure is also tall but slim, but his appearance is a little strange, especially since the robe he wears is more like a woman's long dress, which is pink.
Both middle-aged won have equally mature and charming faces, even though their faces are devoid of make-up, and their appearances are no less elegant than each other.
One of them had a slightly short and sowhat plump figure, and her shoulder-length pink hair was adorned with a tiara with small jade balls. Everything about her was pink, including her eyes, eyebrows, lips, and dress. Her breasts weren't that big, but they weren't that small either; her curves were not too visible because of her figure and loose dress, but her hips looked wide.
The other woman had a tall and slender figure; her body was covered by a dress with a dragon embroidered on the back, and her long red hair was braided down her back. Her breasts are a bit bigger, and her hourglass curves are clearly visible, but her hips are not as wide as the other woman.
Hearing Shang Chenguang's rapid footsteps, the two middle-aged n imdiately turned to him, and the man with three claw marks on his left eye imdiately asked. "What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Shang Chenguang imdiately kneeled down in front of them and explained the situation. "Patriach Shang Huaqiang, I ca here to report sothing to you, and it is very important. Those two kids had previously summoned my avatar to the Netherworld Realm, and I noticed sothing unusual about the portal seal.
There was a mythical beast that helped the cultivators from the Sky Jade Realm to strengthen the seal, and I am sure it is a beast from the upper realms. Judging from the strength of the Qi, its cultivation should be at the high level of the seven divine realms.
That's why I plan to leave for that realm right now, so I can help them to destroy that seal, especially since they're clearly not an opponent for that mythical beast, and they will probably die if they face it."
"Are you sure that the Qi you feel in the seal belongs to a mythical beast?" Shang Chenguang replied with a firm nod, but Shang Huaqiang then asked the other man, "Have you ever heard of mythical beasts in the lower realms, Brother Zhuang Qiaoming? As I recall, you often go to the lower realms, so I thought you'd know sothing about that."
"No." Zhuang Qiaoming answered Shang Huaqiang with a shake of his head, and his voice sounded feminine, like a transvestite. "The Qi in the lower realms is too low and thin for mythical beasts, so I've never heard of any of them roaming around there.
Moreover, they have high pride, so I don't believe that any of them are willing to help those weaklings, especially since that would only waste their ti."
Shang Huaqiang nodded in agreent, but a mont later, the woman in the red dress spoke. "Brother Qiaoming, you're not wrong about that, but you forgot that the ten-tailed fox used to live in the Sky Jade Realm, which was once called the Heavenly Wilderness Realm, and many beasts thought that he left his legacy there.
According to history, he was a powerful beast, and he single-handedly freed all the fox race from oppression by defeating the other powerful beasts, including all the ancestors of the mythical beasts.
That's why I think it's natural that so of the mythical beasts went to realm, but I'm sure that beast wasn't there to help them, and it may have had another agenda in doing so, which may have sothing to do with that legacy."
"You are right, Fei Qinyuan." Zhuang Qiaoming said that while nodding several tis.
The pink-haired woman suddenly spoke to Zhuang Qiaoming. "Husband, I wouldn't have rembered this matter if you guys hadn't brought it up, but I've heard that there are so mythical beasts who have sent their people to that realm, including the four virtue mythical beasts."
"Hmm?" Zhuang Qiaoming imdiately turned to his wife. "Ying Wu, where did you hear that news? Why have I never heard about that matter?"
"Haha." Ying Wu giggled before telling them. "Zhu Sanniang is a mber of the Vermilion bird race, and I have a good relationship with her, so she told about it. However, the people of her race and the other three virtue mythical beasts never found anything related to the ten-tailed fox in that realm, and they only discovered an old statue of the fox, which they considered to be useless."
"A statue?" Ying Wu nodded to both n, but Zhuang Qiaoming had other thoughts. "I don't believe that the statue is useless, and I think it is the key to finding the ten-tailed fox's legacy, so you must get it in order to find it, Brother Huaqiang."
"I agree with you." Shang Huaqiang imdiately turned his head towards Shang Chenguang before issuing an order. "Go to the Netherworld Realm now, and bring Shang Xishun with you. I don't want to fail again, so you two must help those foolish demons invade the Sky Jade Realm.
As for the mythical beast, I'm sure it's not fully grown yet, or they wouldn't have sent it there, so I want you two to capture it and bring it here to ta."
"Yes, Patriarch."
After Shang Chenguan left, Zhuang Qiaoming imdiately asked Shang Huaqiang. "Brother, how did you manage to control the demon emperor of the Netherworld Realm? As far as I can rember, that old guy was really stubborn, and he never submitted to anyone. Moreover, I've fought him once before, and he was quite powerful, even though he wasn't a demon cultivator."
"Hahahaha!" Shang Huaqiang burst out laughing after hearing that. "Brother, their current demon emperor is not the real one, and he is my puppet."
"Oh?" Zhuang Qiaoming and Ying Wu were shocked by Shang Huaqiang's confession.
Fei Qinyuan then told them. "Actually, that guy was a demon from another realm, and he suddenly appeared in this realm out of nowhere, so my husband imdiately captured him. After so investigation, we learned that he ca from the lower realms, and his rank had already reached the emperor rank, but his demon power is too low compared to the demon emperors from the middle and upper realms.
After careful consideration, we decided to brainwash him and send him to one of the demon realms in the upper realms. Additionally, we provided him with demon-related items, which significantly enhanced his demon power. After that, he took him to the Netherworld Realm to replace their demon emperor, and he also imprisoned that old stubbornness in a place that demons couldn't reach."
"Hmm?" Zhuang Qiaoming imdiately turned to Shang Huaqiang again. "Where did you imprison that old stubborn? Is he still alive now?"
Shang Huaqiang nodded to Zhuang Qiaoming before proceeding with his explanation. "He is still alive, but I used sothing to seal his demon power and aura, so no one will be able to tell that he is a demon emperor. As for his imprisonnt, I moved him to another realm, and I also left a powerful dog guard to monitor him."
"A place that the demons can't reach?" Zhuang Qiaoming wondered to himself with a frown, but then he rembered a place. "Don't tell that you sent him to that realm."
"Hahaha." Shang Huaqiang once again burst out laughing. "That's right, I sent that stubborn old man to that realm, and he is no different from an ordinary human there."
Ying Wu then asked Fei Qinyuan. "Did you two use the demons from the Netherworld Realm to avoid those people's eyes?"
"Isn't that the obvious answer?" Fei Qingyuan smiled in response. "Humans and beasts are eager to obtain the ten-tailed fox's legacy, so we can't act openly. If we succeed in obtaining it and they find out about it, they will flock to attack us, especially those two heavenly fox ancestors, which will be our downfall.
That's why we use such a thod, and our puppet will take care of everything, so we don't have to worry about our safety."
"Unfortunately, we don't know for sure whether the ten-tailed fox's legacy truly exists, especially since Tian Baitian and Tian Baixing are his direct descendants." The three of them nodded in agreent with Zhuang Qiaoming. "For several millennia, many humans, demons, and beasts believed that his legacy was in their hands, and they repeatedly attacked the Heavenly Moon Realm to conquer them.
Unfortunately, those two were truly powerful, and no one had ever succeeded in defeating them."
Shang Huaqiang smirked faintly at that. "That's why I thought about finding another way to obtain the ten-tailed fox's legacy, and I am absolutely certain that the key lies in the Sky Jade Realm. Back then, my puppet and those demons failed to invade that realm, so I don't want to fail a second ti, and I will use all ans to do so."
