"That's, that's my aunt!" When everyone was still waiting for Elder Yin and others to open the barrier, Jiang Yiming suddenly pointed at the top of the palace inside the barrier and shouted. The aunt in the palace obviously saw her and quickly flashed to the vicinity of the barrier.

"Aunt, aunt, it's me!" Jiang Yiming had been in the demon world for so long, and although he didn't say anything, he had already made the worst plan in his heart. However, he didn't expect to suddenly meet the person he cared about the most here.

"Ming'er?" Although the lady inside the barrier was wearing a relatively loose dress, her slightly bulging belly was still visible at a glance. She looked at Jiang Yiming outside the barrier with some disbelief and asked uncertainly, "Is it really Ming'er?"

"It's me, Ming'er, Jiang Yiming." Jiang Yiming was so excited that he didn't know what to say. The fact that his relatives were still alive was his greatest comfort on this trip.

The commotion here was quite loud and soon attracted the people in the barrier palace. Only then did everyone realize that most of the people coming out of the palace were humans. These were probably the human monks living in the Demon Realm King City that everyone had wanted to find in the Wanjie Mountain.

After entering the palace, everyone was led to rest, but Yan Baibai was stopped halfway, and it was Elder Yin who stopped him.

"Senior, do you have anything else to tell me?" Yan Baibai did not feel any murderous aura from Elder Yin. Also, because her own cultivation level was there, and Lu Wuxiu, whose combat power was mysterious, was following her, Yan Baibai was not as vigilant as other cultivators along the way.

"Well, Saint, are you willing to chat with an old man like me?" Elder Yin smiled playfully, like an old naughty boy. The man who had originally led Yan Baibai left after Elder Yin appeared.

"It's my honor." Knowing that Elder Yin wanted to discuss something with him, Yan Baibai naturally agreed. In fact, even if Elder Yin didn't come to find him, Yan Baibai would have taken the initiative to find him. After all, he was probably the only one in the entire demon world who knew about Song Yu's situation.

Seeing Yan Baibai's cooperative attitude, Elder Yin's smile became more sincere, but when he looked at Lu Wuxiu who had been silent behind Yan Baibai, his face froze. He couldn't actually see through this kid's cultivation!

"Oh, he is one of us. Just say whatever you want to say." Yan Baibai looked back at Lu Wuxiu, and then explained to Elder Yin.

So, when Yan Baibai turned around, she missed the upturned corner of Lu Wuxiu's mouth, and also missed Lu Wuxiu nodding to Elder Yin, which was regarded as an acknowledgement of the three words "one of us" that she had said.

Seeing this, Elder Yin quickly understood what was going on with the two men, so he felt relieved and turned around to take them in another direction.

The palace was built halfway up the mountain. While Elder Yin was chatting with Yan Baibai and Lu Wuxiu, they left the palace and headed straight up the mountain. After exiting the palace, there was a staircase paved with bluestone slabs. The stone steps were just wide enough for two people to walk side by side. There was no end in sight, and it seemed to lead directly to the top of the mountain.

When they were halfway there, Elder Yin turned into another path. The path was only wide enough for one person to walk on. The grass and trees on the roadside were lush and green, and the sunlight could only shine in when the trees swayed. Before Yan Baibai could carefully savor the unique scent of grass and trees in the wind, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then a cold wind blew in his face.

Only then did Yan Baibai realize that the road ahead suddenly made a sharp turn, and from this point, a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains appeared in her eyes. At a glance, her eyes would involuntarily fall on the white dot in the center of the mountains and rivers, a very familiar white dot.

"Is that your royal city?" Although he already had a vague answer in his mind, Yan Baibai couldn't help but point at it to confirm with Elder Yin next to him.

"Yes, that is the royal city of our demon race." Elder Yin nodded, a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes, and then he asked with a smile: "Saint Maiden, are you a little surprised that you couldn't see this place when you were in the royal city?"

Yan Baibai nodded. From her current perspective, she should be atop a high mountain near the Royal City. Due to the distance, the once bustling and vast Royal City had become a tiny white dot. However, if this mountain truly existed, she should be able to see it from the Royal City. But the truth was, aside from the Swastika Mountain, the area surrounding the Royal City was flat. Even if there were mountains farther away, such a view wouldn't be possible.

"If the demon world is considered a house, this mountain is the pillar of the house. It is the center of the demon world, the sacred mountain of the demon world, and the last pillar of the demon world. It requires the elder seals of the four elders and the heart blood of the demon king to open it." Elder Yin smiled helplessly, sighed, looked at Yan Baibai, and explained, "Every world has such a place, and the center of the immortal world should be guarded by the Tianshan Sect."

"Yes, I understand." Yan Baibai nodded. When Elder Yin told her this confidential news about the demon world, her heart couldn't help but become heavy. It seemed that the situation in the demon world was more critical than it seemed on the surface.

"Okay, I'm glad you understand." Elder Yin smiled easily when he saw Yan Baibai's expression, then turned around and continued to lead the way.

Unlike when they went up the mountain, it seemed that what he said just now had dispelled some of Elder Yin's concerns, and he began to talk more.

"Why is the Saint willing to help the demon world?" Elder Yin suddenly asked.

"Ah?" The sudden question made Yan Baibai stunned.

"That brat Xiong Qi told me a lot." Elder Yin smiled and said, "Although the Saint Lady's actions seem to be working to strengthen the marriage between Wuzhi Mountain and Tianji Pavilion, I know that although the Shenxiu clan has some connection with Wuzhi Mountain, they are not usually close."
