Chapter 151 This is where we ran into each other.

Su Yu summoned the Frost Flowing Sword and easily rose into the air.

Beyond that layer of restrictive black mist lies…

Ah, it's the Demon Palace.

Su Yu immediately jumped off the sword and sheathed it.

The Demon Realm Palace, comparable to the celestial palaces, is luxurious and grand. Its dark architecture still stands out in the darkness, thanks to the rare crystals used in its construction that emit a faint glow.

Since we're already here, we might as well take a look. Maybe we can even bring back some specialties from the Demon Palace to give to Twelve, such as intelligence, magical artifacts, pills, or other supplies.

Su Yu is at the peak of the Mahayana stage, which means that his divine sense has the strength of the Tribulation Transcending stage. In addition, the illusionary ultimate move of the Moon Demon bloodline relies on divine sense, so Su Yu is not afraid at all now.

This is the back of the Demon Palace, relatively quiet.

He affixed several concealment talismans to himself and boldly jumped over the palace wall.

However, Su Yu did not see a single servant or guard along the way.

A faint smell of blood emanated from the main hall deep within the Demon Palace.

Su Yu quickened her pace, only to find a huge barrier covering the main hall as she approached it, blocking out all movement inside and making it impossible to enter or leave.

Outside the barrier lay some shriveled corpses, their clothing suggesting they were servants of the Demon Palace, and their manner of death was that they had been drained of their demonic energy.

Su Yu fell into deep thought.

Why is the old devil hiding it so well? Did he move all his treasures in there too?

Suddenly someone gently touched his shoulder.

Su Yu turned around abruptly, but saw nothing.

At that moment, the wind swirled up the fallen leaves, forming an arrow in the air that pointed upwards towards the palace wall.

Su Yu: ...Okay, he knows who it is.

Above the palace wall sat a woman dressed in a light blue and white outfit, twirling a long flute in her hand, and smilingly raised her hand to greet Su Yu.

Su Yu allowed her to communicate telepathically.

Upon hearing this, Shu Yuanlan smiled, a hint of pleasure in her voice:

Behind the Demon Palace, there is a rift that leads to the Upper Spirit Realm. The spies that Wei Lan previously sent into the Spirit Realm all passed through this rift.

As soon as Yuanfu decided which side to take, Shu Yuanlan was called back by Wuxi to help.

These few with the cultivation level of the Tribulation Transcending stage were mainly there to deal with the major demon kings under the enemy Wei Lan's forces. Wei Lan was tacitly assigned to be dealt with by Feng Huaijin.

After all, to become the Demon Lord, the final pass is the death of the previous Demon Lord.

Shu Yuanlan first dealt with the demon king assigned to her. Her wind attribute gave her high mobility, so she quickly moved to the back of the demon palace to block Wei Lan's escape route.

Su Yu nodded knowingly, then glanced at the corpse on the ground:

At this moment, the barrier suddenly agitated and exploded, unleashing a pressure that swept in all directions from the peak of the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

At the same time, another familiar demonic aura appeared.

Su Yu took a step back to dissipate the force, and Shu Yuanlan also jumped down from the palace wall and stood beside him.

They're fighting over there, so there's no time to pay attention to what they're saying.

“He’s here, and he’s here pretty fast,” she said, pressing down on Su Yu’s shoulder. “Just wait. Our demon race’s rules forbid us from interfering in the battle for the Demon Lord.”

One-on-one, only when in the right position can one be truly right.

Su Yu, who had instinctively wanted to step onto the scene, stopped abruptly, frowning and remaining silent.

That makes sense, but how can we not worry?

Seeing his appearance, Shu Yuanlan simply pulled him up and started chatting with him.

"Are you coming back to see Huaijin this time? He's been looking for you like crazy."

Su Yu: "Yes, I will see him. He's had a tough time these past few years."

Shu Yuanlan: "...So gentle, did you finally understand after being away for a few years?"

Su Yu turned her face away somewhat uncomfortably: "It's alright."

Shu Yuanlan clicked her tongue twice at the young people's love, then changed the subject: "So you're going back to Yuanfu after this? You haven't even graduated yet."

Su Yu: "...That will take some time, I have things to take care of."

He still needs to go to the spirit world.

Not only does he want to reunite with A Yao, but he also wants to expose some important spies that Wei Lan had planted in the spirit world.

"Okay, you can decide for yourself."

Shu Yuanlan waved her hand dismissively, not giving a second thought to the mentor Minfeng, who was still worried about the ungraduated chief.

Minfeng has a slight case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Seeing the name of the chief disciple on the list of disciples, who is missing and therefore unable to graduate, makes him unhappy in every way.

It's no big deal. My nephew is just not coming back for the time being. What's there to worry about?

But these few words wouldn't last long, so Shu Yuanlan thought for a moment and took out a chessboard from her storage ring.

"They'll probably be fighting for a long time. Come on, nephew, let's kill some time."

Su Yu tentatively asked, "A Go board?"

Shu Yuanlan waved her hand and said, "Let's play Gomoku!"

The two demons enjoyed a pleasant game of chess.

On the other side, two demons were fighting to the death.

While attacking, Wei Lan maliciously provoked Feng Huaijin, saying, "I really regret not killing you directly."

The Abyss Demon is inherently fierce and easily provoked into losing its rationality when it comes to matters related to its partner.

"Oh, I remember now. I was originally going to kill you, but unfortunately your senior brother was there."

"How is he doing these days? We haven't heard from him in over five years. Could he be dead?"

Feng Huaijin's face was cold, his red eyes revealing a fierce look: "Shut up."

He is currently in the early stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, but with the power borrowed from his previous life, he also possesses the strength of the peak Tribulation Transcending Realm.

Wei Lan dodged the sword with some difficulty and continued, "I can't beat you, but thinking about having that beautiful Moon Demon as a companion on the road to the Yellow Springs, it's quite a nice thing!"

Feng Huaijin's body was filled with demonic energy, and his eyes were so red they seemed to be dripping blood.

Wei Lan had more bloody holes in his body, but a look of joy flashed in his eyes.

The next instant, before he could find an opportunity for his soul to escape when the other party lost their mind, he was pierced through the chest by a sword and pinned to the ground from mid-air.

Amidst the flying dust, his primordial spirit, which had seized the last opportunity to escape, was also crushed.

Feng Huaijin drew his sword expressionlessly, not even bothering to wipe the blood, and threw it back into his natal magic weapon space.

Afterwards, he cast a cleansing spell on his entire body and changed his clothes. He barely remembered to give his subordinates an order to clean up the mess, and then hurried towards the rear hall with a clear goal in mind.

Who has the time to listen to that old devil's rambling slander against his brother?

Just now, when he stormed the Demon Palace, he discovered that the jade pendant he had given to his brother had suddenly become responsive.

My brother is right here!

The subordinates who followed in looked at the dead former Demon Lord on the ground and the current Demon Lord, whose back view revealed a hint of urgency, and exchanged glances. Finally, they resigned themselves to their fate and began to clean up the battlefield.

After not seeing each other for many years, Feng Huaijin wanted to leave Su Yu with a more composed impression, but he couldn't help but walk faster and faster, taking bigger and bigger strides, until he turned from walking briskly into running.

With the boost from his cultivation, he arrived at Su Yu's location almost instantly.
