After failing her tribulation, the Grand Elder of the Xuan Sect reincarnated as a little village girl in a remote area! Her father was dead, and her mother was remarrying!
Her stepfather was ...
Over a month, the White Ape Demon King and his companions found some young people, but those people were just naturally strong and didn't exhibit any of the extraordinary phenomena the Demon Emperor had described. Their strength was far inferior to that of the great demons.
The demon kings also had communication talismans, and in early February, they gathered in a small town not far from the capital to discuss important matters.
"Gentlemen, we have searched almost everywhere except the capital. This powerful young man that the Demon Emperor mentioned could not possibly be hiding in the deep mountains and forests under an assumed name, could he? He will definitely become famous throughout the world, it just takes time. But we cannot just wait for him to increase his strength rapidly. At that time... not only us, but even the Demon Emperor will find it difficult to subdue him."
The White Ape Demon King frowned deeply as he spoke: "But if he doesn't die, the Heavenly Dao will not reopen the path to ascension, and we will have no future, so he must die."
"In your opinion, what should we do?" a middle-aged woman dressed in red stepped forward and asked.
It is the Demon Emperor's confidant.
“Red Scorpion Demon King, we’ve searched everywhere except the capital. Now, of course, we need to find a way to go to the capital. The capital is full of talented people and experts. If an ordinary person has extraordinary talent, they will definitely go to the capital to serve the court,” said Azure Scale Demon King.
"Then let's go to the capital!" The Red Scorpion Demon King made up his mind immediately.
“The capital is not like other places. If so many of our demon kings go there, we will definitely be discovered,” the White Ape Demon King said hurriedly.
"You don't need to worry about that!" After saying that, the Red Scorpion Demon King took out several black tokens from his Qiankun bag.
"As long as we wear this black token, we can isolate our demonic energy to the greatest extent and prevent it from leaking out. Naturally, the magical artifacts hanging on the city gate will not be able to detect anything unusual," the Red Scorpion Demon King laughed.
The demon kings were speechless upon hearing this.
"Such a good thing, why didn't Sister Red Scorpion bring it out before?" The Azure Scale Demon King was immediately displeased.
For more than a month, they have been traveling all over the Great Yan Dynasty, going to great lengths to hide their whereabouts and suppress their demonic aura.
"This was just refined by the Demon Emperor recently and sent here. I only received it yesterday!" the Crimson Scorpion Demon King said calmly.
Hearing this, no one said much. After receiving their black tokens, they prepared to head to the capital.
Unbeknownst to them, Ye Xianya had already returned to the capital three days prior.
Not only did she recover from her injuries, but after consuming so many pills and rare herbs, her strength also increased significantly.
Elders Ren Zhaohui and others were worried about Ye Xianya's safety, so half of them stayed at Taiyi Sect and the other half followed her back to the capital and lived in Ye Xianya's mansion.
...
Upon learning that Ye Xianya had come to visit, Wei Shuyu hurriedly came out to greet her personally.
If her son were truly ambitious, he might be able to marry that girl in a couple of years. As her mother, she would naturally be more attentive so that the girl would know how much she liked her.
Qi Jiu officially ascended the throne a few days ago, and he named Ye Miaoyun as Empress and Ye Xianya as Princess Yi'an.
However, Ye Xianya never cared about making a scene when she went out, so today only Zhengzheng and Furong accompanied her.
"If the princess wants to see Chengshuo, she only needs to send someone to deliver the message. Chengshuo will definitely rush to the palace to pay his respects to the princess. It will be a trouble for the princess to make the trip!" Wei Shuyu said with a smile.
If her son knew that the girl wanted to see him, he would definitely rush to the palace or visit Princess Ye Xianya's residence. He would never want the girl to come to him in person.
However, does Ye Xianya's personal visit mean that she also has feelings for Cheng Shuo?
Wei Shuyu was overjoyed and took Ye Xianya to the courtyard where Qi Chengshuo lived.
Qi Chengshuo had just finished dealing with his work when he heard that Ye Xianya had arrived. He went out to greet her, but Ye Xianya was already at the gate of the courtyard.
He knew that Ye Xianya would return from Taiyi Sect in the next couple of days. When he went to cultivate under the Zhuguo Tree before dawn today, he asked Zhengzheng to let him know if she received a message from Ye Xianya.
As it turned out, the person had already returned, and she didn't even let Zhengzheng pick them up.
"Qi Chengshuo!" Zhengzheng, who was standing on Ye Xianya's shoulder, shouted as soon as she saw Qi Chengshuo.
It has been practicing with Qi Chengshuo these days, and their relationship has become much closer.
"Chengshuo, the princess is here. She says she has something to discuss with you, so I'll excuse myself for now. You two can chat slowly. I'll go prepare lunch and treat the princess well!" Wei Shuyu actually wanted to stay and hear what Ye Xianya had to say to Qi Chengshuo.
Maybe that girl really has taken a liking to her son!
However, she knew it wasn't appropriate, so she could only make an excuse to leave first.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mother." Qi Chengshuo smiled and bowed, then led Ye Xianya into the house after watching Wei Shuyu leave.
He was very happy that Ye Xianya came to see him.
"Zhengzheng and I were discussing going to Taiyi Gate to pick you up these past two days, but we didn't expect you to be back today!" Qi Chengshuo said softly, looking at Ye Xianya beside him.
"The elders were worried about my safety and feared that the demon kings might harm me, so they came back with me. The Taiyi Sect has many spirit beasts, and since I brought Tangtang back this time, I didn't have Zhengzheng pick me up," Ye Xianya said with a smile.
"Sister, when can I go see Tangtang?" Zhengzheng asked excitedly.
Although there's now Tangtang, her older sister definitely won't pamper her as much as before, but Zhengzheng is still looking forward to it.
That was, after all, a spirit beast that my sister had personally raised in her previous life. I heard it was extremely powerful, so of course I wanted to see it for myself.
If it's even more powerful, then Tangtang will have to go after it.
"I'll take you there later," Ye Xianya said with a smile, gently rubbing Zhengzheng's head.
Ye Xianya had only just returned to the capital. She hadn't even gone back to her own residence before rushing to the palace.
After seeing her mother and father, she didn't linger in the palace and immediately took Zhengzheng and Shen Furong to the Duan Prince's Mansion to find Qi Chengshuo.
The Grand Elder and Tangtang went to her residence first.
"I have something to discuss with Qi Chengshuo. Once I've finished my business, I'll take you all back to the Princess's residence. Then you'll be able to see Tangtang." After Ye Xianya finished speaking, she gently rubbed Zhengzheng's head: "You and Furong go play in the courtyard for a while. I'll come out in a bit."
Zhengzheng was about to say something when Shen Furong grabbed it and went outside.
“On the way back, I used mystical arts to cast a divination for my close relatives. My mother and the others are fine, but you are the only one who is acting strangely. According to the divination, you will soon suffer a bloody disaster, and... the most serious kind, so I came to find you.” Ye Xianya said with a somewhat solemn expression.
Upon hearing this, Qi Chengshuo said, "I don't plan to leave the capital anytime soon. Could it be... that someone will come to the capital to hurt me?"
He's already very powerful, is there anyone who can hurt him?
Unless one is a powerful cultivator or a great demon.
