Chapter 443: Before the Storm
For the first time, Gu Heng experienced what torment truly meant.
The night passed slowly because he couldn't fall asleep at all. The bed wasn't big, so the two of them squeezed on it. It wasn't that they couldn't turn over, but Gu Heng didn't dare to move at all. Although the little girl seemed completely unconcerned about touching him, Gu Heng was still bothered.
Moreover, the little cake smelled so good and was so close, Gu Heng really didn't know how he could fall asleep.
So I spent the whole night in bed contemplating life.
Finally, dawn broke and the first rays of sunlight rose.
Gu Heng let out a long sigh and sat up. The exhaustion was so profound that it affected both his soul and body, making it almost impossible for him to lift his head.
He now understands what it means for time to drag on endlessly; he realized that such torturous things really do exist in this world!
Even so.
He still had to appear energetic.
Otherwise, if the little girl knew that her request had caused her master to lose sleep all night, wouldn't she feel very guilty?
We can't let her feel guilty.
Qin Yiyao was still asleep, sleeping soundly. Gu Heng didn't intend to wake her, so he tiptoed out of bed and quickly went out to enjoy the morning breeze to avoid feeling uncomfortable.
However, Gu Heng was also very satisfied to see Qin Yiyao sleeping so soundly.
He had just left the house.
Qin Yiyao opened her eyes and lazily turned over.
"Master hasn't made a move... It seems I'm still too young. Once I regain my former maturity, he probably won't have too many concerns." She pursed her lips and chuckled to herself.
She did fall asleep last night, though the tension hadn't subsided before she fell asleep. She was anxiously waiting for what would happen next, feeling both apprehensive and somewhat expectant. After all, the Holy Yao Emperor had never engaged in sexual relations before, so how could a novice like her know so much?
However, in the end, the master did nothing.
Qin Yiyao boldly guessed that her master did have a reaction to her, but not a very strong one. Perhaps her master had never been involved in romance, or perhaps he was very good at it but saw through her scheme. However, he had no interest in her, so... he didn't react.
Whatever it was, Qin Yiyao was quite satisfied.
She glanced at the door, then picked up the blanket covering her. The blanket had been used to cover the two of them last night, and the other side smelled of her master.
Qin Yiyao held the quilt to her nose, took a few deep sniffs, and then closed her eyes contentedly. Actually, it didn't have much of a fragrance.
But it's so warm.
Take a good sniff.
It's hard to say whether there will be another opportunity like this in the future.
……
Demon realm.
A desolate, remote place.
The Demon Lord of the Yin Horse appeared in this area where life was almost extinct.
"This is it."
Yinma Demon Lord nodded.
According to the information he gleaned from the mind of the Demon King, there are three other "old monsters" in this demon realm besides the Demon King.
They were all powerful demons who lived in seclusion. The reason they did not come out was because their lifespans were coming to an end and they needed to slow down the decline of their vital energy. They could live one day at a time. Although, in the eyes of the Yin Horse Demon Lord, these so-called powerful demons who lived in seclusion were no different from ants.
If he can turn the Demon King into his puppet, then these great demons are no different.
Not to mention, they are even weaker than the Demon King.
"come out!"
The Demon Lord of the Underworld had no time to search them one by one. He roared loudly, shaking the entire land.
Suddenly, a strong wind arose, and grass and trees flew everywhere.
As soon as he finished speaking, three enormous beastly figures flew out from a corner of this desolate place.
It was an old tortoise the size of a small mountain, a roc with all its wings and feathers gone, and a golden-maned lion that looked to be in its prime!
The three great demons of the Demon Realm have appeared!
These three great demons had already reached the fifth level of the Supreme Saint realm and had lived for a very, very long time, so long that their lifespans were almost exhausted and they were preparing to go to the heavens. However, they were still reluctant to accept their fate.
"So you are envoys from the Demon Realm. We have been negligent."
The old tortoise spoke first, a rough and ferocious sword scar running across its back. It wasn't hard to imagine how terrifying the person who left that scar must have been.
"Enough with the nonsense. You've taken the benefits from my Demon Realm, replenishing your already depleted energy. Now, it's time to contribute to the grand plan of my Demon Realm!"
The Demon Lord of the Underworld made no attempt to be polite.
In his eyes, these so-called demons were all people who could be used.
If something is unusable, then just get rid of it.
"You! We made an agreement with that envoy that we could remain silent for another hundred years before we made our move!"
The golden-haired lion roared angrily. "Haha! That one? That one is long dead!" the Yinma Demon Lord sneered. "What he said is null and void! If you know what's good for you, then obey my orders, otherwise... hmph!"
A murderous glint flashed in the eyes of the Yinma Demon Lord.
No matter how Demon Lord Yuhai negotiated with these ants, Demon Lord Yinma had no intention of admitting it.
He's in charge now.
Then we have to do it his way!
Upon hearing this, the three demons all fell silent.
After a long silence, the old tortoise finally spoke: "Envoy, what do you need us to do?"
"Then naturally we should leave here, go out with a large army, and turn the outside world upside down, the more chaotic the better!"
The Demon Lord of the Underworld laughed.
What's the point of letting these three old monsters huddle here?
It's better to shine brightly as soon as possible and squeeze out all the remaining heat. As for whether he lives or dies in the future, that Yinma Demon Lord won't care.
"……All right."
The old tortoise eventually gave in.
He didn't want to drag his weak body out to lead the demon race in a great battle against humans; that would be absolutely detrimental to him.
But this envoy from the demon realm, whoever he is, has already made his attitude clear: fight or die.
The three demons had all witnessed the power of the Demon Realm, even if they had only seen a small part of it, it was enough for them to know who was the most dangerous to mess with.
The Demon Realm is a formidable enemy that can rival the Immortal Realm and once caused rivers of blood to flow in the Immortal Realm!
They have no right to resist.
"Very good, hurry up and move, lest you die before you've served your purpose." Yinma Demon Lord didn't want to waste any more time here. He knew these old monsters wouldn't disobey him, and even if they did, it didn't matter; he could just crush them to death.
He has other places to go.
The Demon Lord Yu Hai has developed considerable power in the Xuan Tian Realm.
On the human side, there is an organization called the "Great Alliance of Heretical Cultivators," which lurks in the shadows and has been accumulating power. They have all benefited from the demon realm, and because their cultivation methods are closer to those of the demon realm, they have even been labeled as "heretical cultivators"...
Since the goal is to throw the entire Xuan Tian Realm into chaos...
How can we forget about the "vassals" on the human side?
