"Your name is Ruji?" Lou Munan asked, looking at Ruji. He had devoured a large number of living beings and obtained a lot of memories, so he had heard of this woman, Ruji.
Ru Ji said tremblingly, "This humble servant, Ru Ji, greets Your Majesty the Demon Lord!"
Cold sweat poured down her back, soaking through the clothes on Ruji's back.
Lou Munan's expression was unreadable: "I've heard you're good at divination and even have the ability to foresee the future."
Upon hearing this, Ruji raised her head. She sensed that Demon Lord Xuantian wasn't there to avenge Lu Xuening, that lowly servant. However, before she could reply, Lou Munan pointed a finger at her in the air, and a drop of red blood was injected onto Ruji's forehead.
Veins bulged on Ruji's forehead, and a pain that felt like it was tearing her head apart caused her to convulse and groan in agony.
Lu Xuening was very pleased with herself. Haha, Ruji, you've finally met your match!
As she looked at it, Lu Xuening felt that something was wrong.
Although Ruji appeared to be in great pain, her aura grew stronger and stronger. A red light emanated from her body, within which her power surged dramatically, frantically attempting to break through the bottleneck of the Immortal Emperor realm.
A short while later, a star map appeared beneath Ruji's feet. It was a blood-red star map. At first, the star map was only under her feet, but soon it seemed that the entire underworld was covered by a blood-red star map, and strange phenomena appeared in the sky.
Lu Xuening hadn't figured it out yet, but Night King, White King, Nine Netherworld Emperor, and Evil Moon Holy Mother immediately realized that the Demon Lord was helping Ruji enter the Demon God realm.
After they figured it out, the Yama and other demon experts also gradually realized it. Only Lu Xuening was still puzzled, but seeing everyone's expressions, she seemed to gradually understand something.
Becoming an Immortal Emperor is no easy feat, but Ruji was already a peak Immortal King, so Lou Munan gave her a push, and she actually succeeded.
With a scream from Ruji, a beam of red light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire heavens. The sky of the underworld was covered by Ruji's own realm, and so was the land. The entire world transformed into a blood-red universe, within which the crimson moon underwent different phases.
Successfully opening one's own realm means successfully entering the realm of the Immortal Emperor.
It wasn't that Ruji's own realm covered the Underworld, but rather that she pulled others into her own realm. The Nine Netherworld Emperor and the White-Faced King remained expressionless upon seeing this. The Evil Moon Holy Mother wore an appreciative smile on her aged face; after all, she and Ruji were, in a sense, of the same kind. The Night King, however, looked at Ruji with extremely complex emotions. Just a moment ago, she was his subordinate, and now she was a demon god just like him.
While he had mixed feelings about Ruji, he also became even more afraid of Lou Munan.
Ruji withdrew her own realm and, overjoyed, bowed down to Lou Munan:
"I am deeply grateful to the Demon Lord for his promotion and for his life-saving grace. I am willing to dedicate everything to the Demon Lord, even if it means going through fire and water, or being shattered to pieces!"
She had been stuck at the peak of the Immortal King realm for hundreds of thousands of years, and today she finally stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm. How could she not be happy? At this moment, she was indeed extremely grateful to Lou Munan. It is said that fortune is found in danger, and this calamity in the myriad realms may not be a great opportunity for her, Ruji!
Even if Lu Xuening was slow-witted, she understood now. Her eyes widened as she looked at Lou Munan in disbelief.
What?
Why is this happening?
Grandmaster Uncle, why is this happening? Why didn't you kill that vile woman Ruji? Why did you help her break through her bottleneck?
Does Lu Xuening not matter at all in the eyes of her grandmaster uncle?
"Grandmaster Uncle..."
Lu Xuening cried out, wanting to question Lou Munan loudly, but the moment she met his gaze, she felt her blood freeze. She didn't dare utter a word, her body trembling. Ruji saw this and a smile curled at the corner of her lips.
Sigh, it seems the Demon Lord doesn't care much about that little bitch Lu Xuening! Ruji thought to herself.
"Since I, a worthless junior, have become your maid, I shall still be under your supervision from now on!" Lou Munan said to Ruji. Lu Xuening was still somewhat useful to him. It would be good to have Yan Tang's descendant disgust Yan Tang's reincarnation!
What?! Upon hearing this, Lu Xuening was completely stunned.
After a moment of surprise, Ruji immediately bowed to Lou Munan and said, "Yes, sir!"
Lou Munan vanished from his spot in an instant. Ruji stood up, looked at Lu Xuening who was slumped on the ground, and said triumphantly, "Ning'er, I will definitely teach you well in the future, and you must make the Demon Lord satisfied with you."
Looking at Ruji's stunning face, Lu Xuening felt a surge of anger that nearly burst her chest. She had endured so much torment, thinking that her suffering was finally over, only to be met with this outcome.
No, Grandmaster Uncle, how could you be so cruel?
Why did my grandmaster treat her like this? Why did he promote that vile woman, Ruji? Was my grandmaster bewitched by Ruji's face? Was he seduced by this slut? The more I think about it, the more it seems to make sense.
She hated, hated to the extreme, hated the laughing Ruji in front of her. At this moment, her hatred for Ruji even surpassed that for Ayao.

Inside the Black Nest.
In an elegant room, with sheer curtains hanging low, a young girl lay on a large, carved white jade bed. She wore a soft white robe, her long, black hair spread out on a white embroidered pillow, and she was fast asleep with her eyes closed.
