Chu Yu accepted the invitation, opened it, and read: "A sincere invitation to Ms. Chu Yu to attend the Demon Lord's Reinstatement Ceremony at the Demon Palace."
Chu Yu was somewhat excited. She had never attended a celebration in the Demon Realm before. The Demon Lord's resurrection ceremony must have been a grand affair.
She smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll definitely be there on time."
Yuanbao was overjoyed to see her agree. Then, as if remembering something, he immediately pulled Chu Yu aside and whispered to her, "You can bring two relatives or friends, but you can't bring Uncle Fu."
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why can't I bring him?"
Yuanbao shuddered when he thought of the time he witnessed Fu Yunche killing A-K in the middle of the night. He thought that Fu Yunche was too dangerous and he was worried that he would cause trouble after arriving in the Demon Realm. That was why he didn't want him to go. But he had promised Fu Yunche that he would not reveal his transformation.
He could only count on his fingers, hesitatingly explaining, "Uncle Fu is a mortal without magic power, it's not good for him to enter the demon realm. You'd better go with someone who has magic power, like Brother Jiang Huai'an or Sister Tao Susu."
Chu Yu thought about it again and realized that what he said made sense: "Alright."
She felt a little regretful; Fu Yunche wouldn't get to see him this time.
After giving her instructions, Yuanbao waved his little paw at her: "My mission is complete, I'm going back now, see you tomorrow!"
His fluttering little wings flew into the black vortex and quickly disappeared.
Chu Yu came to Fu Yunche's side and said to him, "Tomorrow I'm taking my fourth senior brother and Tao Susu to the Demon Realm to attend the Demon Lord's resurrection ceremony."
Fu Yunche gently instructed, "Okay, then come back early. I'll be waiting for you at home."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yu felt a sense of virtuous husband in him, and her heart was filled with happiness.
"Let's go back and tell them the news."
Fu Yunche hummed in agreement, took her hand, and walked back.
...
The next morning, Chu Yu rode his electric scooter with Jiang Huai'an and Tao Susu to the Demon Realm.
Their destination was the hillside where Chu Yu had delivered takeout last time.
The weather in the Demon Realm was wonderful; the sky was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly.
Jiang Huai'an was very excited, as this was his first time in the Demon Realm.
He looked around, somewhat puzzled: "I thought the Demon Realm was like in the TV series, full of demonic energy, dark and eerie. This place looks pretty much the same as the human world."
Chu Yu explained, "I thought the same thing as you before, but after coming here once, I realized that this place is similar to the human world. It's just that the human world is a modern city, while this place still retains the ancient city-states and lifestyles. When you come here, just think of it as traveling back to ancient times."
Jiang Huai'an was somewhat disappointed: "I see. Then it's almost the same as Youdu City. The only difference is that it's a ghost city, and this is a demon city."
Chu Yu nodded: "More or less."
Tao Susu, on the other hand, seemed quite calm, after all, she had lived for a thousand years.
She asked, "Master, how do we get to the Demon Palace now? Do we ride the little electric scooter?"
Chu Yu smiled and said, "No need, someone will come to pick us up later."
She took out the invitation, which had a spell written at the bottom. She recited the spell, and the invitation instantly emitted a beam of red light, exploding in the sky like fireworks.
Before long, four white horses with wings flew down from the sky in a magnificent carriage and stopped on the hillside.
The driver was a young man dressed in black official robes. He jumped down from the carriage, quickly stepped forward, bowed respectfully to them, and said, "Miss Chu, I am the official sent by the Demon Lord to pick you up. Please get into the carriage, and I will drive you to the Demon Palace."
Jiang Huai'an looked at the magnificent carriage, his face full of excitement: "The Rakshasa Ghost King who went to Youdu City last time was driving a carriage like this, right? I didn't expect the Demon Lord to send such a luxurious carriage to pick us up. He's so hospitable."
The official in charge of etiquette smiled and said, "The three of you are honored guests of our Demon Lord, so naturally we must treat you well."
Jiang Huai'an chuckled and was about to speak when Chu Yu immediately tugged at his sleeve and whispered a reminder: "Don't be so startled and impolite. Behave properly when you get to the Demon Palace later."
Jiang Huai'an then realized his rudeness and quickly stood up straight, assuring her, "Junior sister, don't worry, I will definitely behave properly later and will not embarrass you."
Chu Yu was relieved. The three of them boarded the carriage, and the official in charge of ceremonies drove the carriage into the air, heading towards the direction of Shanghai.
Sitting in the carriage, they could overlook the entire city of Shanghai. The city's grandeur and prosperity broadened Jiang Huai'an and Tao Susu's horizons.
Before long, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Demon Palace. After entering the palace gate, the carriage switched to walking and traveled within the palace.
Looking at the magnificent palace, Jiang Huai'an's eyes shone. He turned to Chu Yu and said, "As expected of the Demon Palace, it's too luxurious. I thought the Demon Palace was rather poor before, but now it seems to be very rich."
Chu Yu smiled and said, "Of course."
Last time she came to the Demon Palace, she was on tenterhooks and was chased by countless demon soldiers. This time, she came as a distinguished guest, so she was relaxed and could properly appreciate the beauty of the Demon Palace.
The master of ceremonies drove a carriage, taking them on a tour of the Demon Palace, before arriving at a magnificent palace.
The three of them got off the carriage and were invited into the palace.
The palace was very large and ornately decorated. Two thrones sat on a high platform, exuding an imposing aura. Presumably, this was where the grand ceremony was held.
The ceremony had not yet begun, and the palace was filled with officials from the Demon Realm. They gathered in small groups, enthusiastically discussing the heroic deeds of the Demon Lord and Demon Queen in joining forces to kill the Left Wise King and purge a group of traitors.
As soon as Chu Yu and his two companions entered, an official looked at Chu Yu and Jiang Huai'an and asked in bewilderment, "Why would mortals come here?"
The master of ceremonies quickly explained, "These three are Miss Chu Yu and her two friends, who were specially invited by the Demon Lord."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials turned around to look at them in unison.
Chu Yu's lips twitched slightly. Just as she was about to greet them, everyone rushed forward and surrounded the three of them.
They looked at Chu Yu with intense fervor.
"Wow, so you're Miss Chu Yu, the great heroine who saved the Demon Lord, the Demon Queen, and the little prince!"
"Miss Chu Yu is a great benefactor of the Demon Realm!"
"Miss Chu Yu risked her life to infiltrate the Demon Palace, beat up the Demon General, kick the Left Wise King, and turn the entire Demon Palace upside down. Then she returned to the human world with the little prince, slaying demons and monsters along the way, and rescued the Demon Queen, bringing a new life to our Demon Realm. It was so touching, sob sob!"
"I used to think that all people in the mortal world were bad guys, but I didn't expect there were good people out there!"
"Yes, Miss Chu Yu is a wonderful person!"
