Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately 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 come from exactly? Why did they use this realm's demons to invade other realms? Moreover, I have never met a cultivator who could fly that fast; even Tian Jiyuan could not fly as fast as him, which means 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 me 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 time, 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 statement, Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately 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 immediately 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 comes 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 me, so you don't have to worry about me. 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 comes here, so you can run away immediately if he has bad intentions towards you." . . . After Shang Chenguan left, Zhuang Qiaoming immediately asked Shang Huaqiang. "Brother, how did you manage to control the demon emperor of the Netherworld Realm? As far as I can remember, 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 immediately captured him. After some investigation, we learned that he came 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 immediately 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 something to seal his demon power and aura, so no one will be able to tell that he is a demon emperor. As for his imprisonment, 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 remembered a place. "Don't tell me 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 method, 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 agreement 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 time, and I will use all means to do so." - To Be Continued - === My other novels 1.
