So this is what they call a bond, but Gu Jian didn't refuse...

Three days later.

Gu Jian boarded the Nine Suns Demon Chariot and, with Hu Linglong watching him go, led his men away from the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

Looking back on what happened these past two days.

Gu Jian felt as if he were dreaming.

Fox Linglong really gave herself to him.

"That's great. The Demon Queen Fox Linglong is now my woman."

"I didn't use any protection, I'm worried about getting pregnant?"

Gu Jian shook his head.

Three more days passed.

Gu Jian arrived at the Netherworld City of the Demon Kingdom on the other side.

After meeting Lin Youxian, Gu Jian told her the purpose of her visit—

He planned to use the treasure to help the Shadow Butterfly improve its strength.

Lin Youxian was surprised that Gu Jian possessed such a treasure, but she did not refuse it.

Half a day later, Gu Jian let the Shadow Butterfly enter the Time God Contract Jade.

Three days later.

The Shadow Butterfly's strength increased further, reaching the third level of the Emperor Realm.

Silkworms are adorable larvae, but they also transform into butterflies with beautiful wings!

Then, Gu Jian met up with Long Yuan'er, the Dragon Princess, who had come to Netherworld City to join him.

Then he bid farewell to Lin Youxian, boarded the demon chariot, and headed towards the Spirit Realm.

"This guy just left like that, who knows when he'll come back?"

Lin Youxian watched the demon chariot disappear into the distance, feeling deeply melancholy.

She no longer hated him.

She even had so much she wanted to say to him.

But in the end, he didn't say it.

...

On the other side.

Gu Jian's Nine Yang Demon Chariot flew in the sky.

Ye Qingcheng's flying boat was chasing after them.

On the airship, Ai Youwei urged them desperately.

"Master, hurry up, or we'll lose them."

"Understood, Youwei!"

Ye Qingcheng spoke.

Since Gu Jian switched to the Demon Chariot, his speed has become incredibly fast.

She was having trouble keeping up, but she definitely didn't want to lose her.

She would follow her disciple wherever he went.

Even if we are at opposite ends of the earth, even if he never forgives himself.

...

The Nine Suns Demon Chariot flew through the air.

Around the demon chariot.

Long Jun, who had become sworn brothers, along with Xue Taotie and Qiongqi, revealed their true forms and roared loudly.

Bian Daque sat on Long Jun's head, flipping through a pharmacopoeia from Gu Jian.

These days, his elder brother Gu Jian has given him many directions for cultivation.

After considering it, Bian Daque chose to be an "assistant".

After all, his older brother is surrounded by experts, so he won't get a chance to fight.

Someone like him, researching poisons in a sleazy way, is quite suitable.

Half a month later, Gu Jian's demonic chariot crossed the barrier of the human realm and entered a desolate area.

Here, not a blade of grass grows.

This area is called the Wasteland.

Desolation and loess are the main characteristics of this region.

Legend has it that a god fell there, and it is also known as the Land of the Fallen Gods.

Terrible things often happen here, and it is a forbidden place for human cultivators.

Even when demons descend upon the world, few demons come to this area.

Gu Jian's demonic chariot flew through the desolate world for half a month.

An endless expanse of golden sand slowly came into view.

This desert is called the Desolate Demon Desert.

Even before the demons descended upon the world, terrifying sand demons roamed the land.

By passing through this area, one can reach the Spirit Realm.

However, Gu Jian did not go immediately.

As Gu Jian's demonic chariot flew over the Desolate Demon Desert.

Bian Daque approached Gu Jian. "Brother, there are two old men down there. They look terrible. Should we help them?"

Inside the demon chariot, Gu Jian, upon hearing this, scanned the sky below with his powerful divine sense.

Then, he indeed saw two haggard-looking old men.

One was dressed in hemp clothing, and the other in cloth clothing.

They lay on the sand dunes, covered in blood, and appeared to be seriously injured.

As a demonic cultivator, Gu Jian had no obligation to save people.

However, seeing how enthusiastic Bian Daque was, Gu Jian did not stop him.

"Alright, Brother Magpie. You can go down and rescue them."

"Okay, big brother."

The magpie was overjoyed and rode the fly monster down into the sky.

Gu Jian waved his hand, and Long Jun, Tao Qi, and Qi Wei also transformed into human form and flew down.

Gu Jian's demon chariot also flew down.

On the sand dune, seeing the two old men's weak appearance, Bian Daque immediately took out spiritual medicine from his storage treasure and gave it to them in turn.

As soon as the elixir entered their mouths, the two old men quickly recovered.

The two, who were barely breathing, suddenly seemed to regain their vitality.

The old man wearing a straw hat slowly stood up, thanked Bian Daque, and said, "Young man, thank you for saving my brother and me. If it weren't for you, my brother and I would probably have perished here."

Bian Daque was overjoyed at the rare opportunity to save someone, waving his hand and laughing, "No need to be polite, it's nothing. If you want to thank someone, thank my elder brother."

"It was my elder brother who asked me to save you."

"Oh? Big brother?"

The old man was astonished, and then looked at Gu Jian, who was walking down from the demon chariot not far away.

Seeing Gu Jian's full head of white hair, the old man's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He then looked in Gu Jian's direction and said, "Is this your elder brother, young man? May I ask his name?"

Gu Jian smiled and said, "You know perfectly well who I am, so why are you asking me how to address you?"

The old man was immediately taken aback and said, "I have never met you before, young man, so how would I know your name?"

Gu Jian smiled and said, "There are many ways to know someone's name. Just like I've never met you, but I still know your names."
