The demon realm did not launch a major attack; everyone remained inactive, occasionally engaging in minor provocations, as if deliberately stalling for time.

Xia Xiang realized something was wrong and returned to the Iron Dimension to see Yehenara Xiong Ba, who was imprisoned in the sun-drenched little garden that had never changed in millennia.

"Damn it, Grandpa, have you heard? My second uncle is back," Xia Xiang said, sitting opposite her. "He's probably leading the demon army and is about to storm into the Iron Dimension."

Yehenara Xiongba was dressed casually, wearing sunglasses, with a glass of orange juice next to him, and said lazily.

"How would I know? We've been locked up here for so long. Besides that unfilial son, Xiaoyu, and you brat, who would care about an old man like me?"

"Aren't you scared?" Xia Xiang asked curiously, resting her chin on her hand.

"If none of you are afraid, why should I be?" Yehenara Xiongba slurped up a mouthful of orange juice and smacked his lips in disgust. "You're abusing the elderly. I want to drink iced cola, not fruit juice."

"Are you afraid he'll come looking for revenge? After all, you abandoned him and banished him to the Silver Dimension," Xia Xiang said earnestly.

"But I really want to know, why did you choose him? Is it because my dad is the eldest and was born first, so you let him, who is the second child, go?"

“No, that’s not it,” Yehenara Xiongba immediately denied, pulling down his sunglasses and looking at Xia Xiang. “When they were born, I was too shocked to even hear what the imperial physician was saying. Then your second uncle opened his eyes and looked at me.”

“I thought he might be a bit smarter, so I left your sleeping dad behind. The smart one might be better off without me, but your stupid dad might die easily without me.”

"Uh..." Xia Xiang really hadn't expected this reason, and was speechless for a moment. Sun Jian would probably be furious if he heard this explanation now.

"Isn't it because my dad is easier to control?"

“You’ve misunderstood me again,” Yehenara Xiong Ba retorted immediately. “You’re prejudiced against me.”

"Shouldn't I be prejudiced against you?" Xia Xiang placed her hand on her heart, her meaning clear.

Yehenara Xiongba turned his head and took another sip of orange juice. "I'm the villain, so of course I have to do bad things."

"I still have another chance to do something bad. Do you want it?" Xia Xiang asked with a sincere smile.

Yehenara Xiongba refused without even thinking, “I don’t want to.”

"Hehe, you don't have a choice now." Xia Xiang said, and started to tie him up.

"Wait a minute," Yehenara Xiong Ba took a few steps back, "Does your alliance leader know about what you're doing?"

"I don't know," Xia Xiang replied seriously. "I'm just letting a father and son who have never met recognize each other. Is it necessary to report to the Alliance Leader? Besides, I am the commander. He should listen to me."

"Hey, hey, hey!" Yehenara Xiong Ba was really unhappy. "He now commands the Demon Realm army and holds a high position of power. I, a poor relative, shouldn't be hanging around in front of him."

"I'm your grandfather, blood is thicker than water, you wouldn't do that, would you?"

Xia Xiangxi clutched her heart and said, "I'm your granddaughter, and you still did that."

Yehenara Xiongba sighed, "It seems we really should have sent your father away back then. That unfilial son of his gave birth to such a rebellious son as you."

"It's all your fault," Xia Xiang said, starting to take him out. "You should reflect on yourself more often, keep it up."
