This is a forest that was once withered, but now new branches are sprouting, and green grass covers the once mottled and ugly earth, showing a thriving scene.
A man dressed in a white suit was floating aimlessly deep in the forest. He had examined the forest several times and finally determined that no living beings had been here for decades. Without careful searching, it would be difficult to find any trace of the past comings and goings of large armies.
"Hey, Qin Su? Where are you? What? You went back to the underworld?" The man in the Western-style dress took out his phone in mid-air and made a call, then showed a surprised expression.
Indeed, the man in the Western-style dress was Wang Yao. He never expected that after a forging process in the God and Demon Forging Space, the God and Demon Realms would separate, and seventy or eighty years would have passed. The Three Realms' reinforcements stationed in the Whispering Forest of the God Realm had long since disbanded, and none of his acquaintances were here anymore.
Qin Su and Wu Ying returned to the Underworld, Zhang Liang returned to the Demon Realm, and Wei Zheng returned to the Immortal Realm. Hui Shuo and Lü Bu remained in the Divine Realm, but Qin Su did not know their exact whereabouts. She asked Wang Yao to find the God of Filling the Sea, believing that Jingwei would surely know their whereabouts.
After hanging up Qin Su's call, Wang Yao intended to go directly to the Lord of Reclaiming the Sea, but unexpectedly, as soon as he turned on his phone, it was flooded with missed calls. He noticed that many of them were from Marshal Lang's number, which reminded him of the old days when Marshal Lang had invited him for drinks.
He said he would go to Golden Horn Bay as soon as he got back, but almost a century has passed in the blink of an eye. He probably won't be able to have this drink with him, but it is still necessary to explain to Lang Shuai why he broke his promise. So Wang Yao hesitated for a moment and then dialed Lang Shuai's number first.
"Hello? Wang Xian?" Lang Shuai's voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Yes, I’m in the realm of gods…” Wang Yao was about to explain that he had broken his promise because the forging of gods and demons had taken too long, but he was interrupted by Lang Shuai’s urgent voice before he could finish speaking.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry. I was supposed to be waiting for you at Golden Horn Bay, but I couldn't get away with my business. As you know, Lady Lian built her mother's nest in the Demon Realm and has been worried about being harassed by the demons. Jinxiu was being pressured by her mother and really had no choice..."
"Furthermore, Lord Xingjun instructed us that the separation of the divine and demonic realms is imminent. If we remain in the divine realm, it will be extremely troublesome to enter the demonic realm after the separation. Therefore, we had no choice but to lead our army into the demonic realm before the separation of the divine and demonic realms. We were unable to wait for you at Golden Horn Bay. Please do not blame me, Wang Xian!"
"Uh... so Zhang Liang is also in the Demon Realm?" Wang Yao was stunned after hearing Lang Shuai's long explanation, and then asked.
"Yes!" Coach Lang replied on the phone.
"So... are you all safe now?" Wang Yao nodded secretly upon hearing this. It seemed that the demon army's departure to the demon realm must have been done secretly, and they probably even implemented a news blackout. Otherwise, Qin Su wouldn't have thought that Zhang Liang had returned to the demon realm.
But just as Commander Lang just said, the Demon Clan will certainly not tolerate the Demon Clan taking root in the Demon Realm, so it seems that Commander Lang and Princess Jinxiu's days in the Demon Realm may not be easy. Therefore, he asked again.
"It's alright. The demon realm has been ravaged by the foreign gods, and we've been protecting the mother nest, so they don't have the ability to threaten us for the time being. However, with the second generation of demons growing up after the war, their strength has recovered somewhat, and I guess their good days are numbered."
"But it's nothing. We haven't wasted all these years in the Demon Realm. Not only does the Mother Nest have combat power, but we also have a Secondary Mother Nest..." Lang Shuai said in a low voice.
"We've also built a secret inter-realm passage between the Demon Realm and the Monster Realm. If we can win the battle, we'll stay there; if we can't, we'll go back to the Monster Realm."
After listening to what Lang Shuai said, Wang Yao guessed that this was probably his own idea and that he had not communicated with Lady Lian. Given Lady Lian's personality, it would be difficult to get the Yi Clan to obediently withdraw after finally establishing themselves in the Demon Realm.
There wasn't much else to say. Wang Yao wasn't in the mood to go to the Demon Realm, and Commander Lang couldn't possibly abandon his army to return to the God Realm to invite Wang Yao for drinks. So the two could only exchange polite words on the phone and agree to meet again when both were free.
After hanging up with Commander Lang, Wang Yao thought about finding out about Hui Shuo's situation. Although the little monk had learned some strange methods from the Buddhist Kingdom and his skills had improved, he was still not very reassuring. As for Lü Bu, it was best to stay far away from him, otherwise Diao Chan would be in big trouble.
Just as Wang Yao was about to dial a number on his phone, suddenly a male and female immortal appeared before his eyes. The male immortal looked to be around thirty years old, while the female immortal was harder to describe, though he felt she was very beautiful. However, both of them were far below Wang Yao in cultivation level, only around the Nascent Soul stage.
Wang Yao is now a Mahayana cultivator, and his perspective on beings from all realms is vastly different from before. He instantly discerned the cultivation levels of the two individuals. The two individuals did not show any fear upon seeing him, a Mahayana cultivator. The fairy took the lead and gracefully stepped forward, offering Wang Yao a deep bow.
"Excuse me, are you the Old Man of the Moon, sir?" the fairy asked softly.
“That’s right, you two are…” Without the system’s help, Wang Yao only knew that these were two immortals whose cultivation level was lower than his. As for their names and professions, he had no idea. Seeing that these two seemed to be coming for him, he immediately asked.
"Oh dear, Lord Yue Lao, you've been searching for us for so long! If it weren't for your phone call just now, we really don't know when we would have found you in this vast divine realm!"
Upon hearing this, the fairy beamed with joy. She waved a black object she was holding, half-complaining and half-affectionately scolding Wang Yao.
"Greetings, Lord Yue Lao. My surname is Fan. My wife and I were assigned by the Heavenly Court to guide you to your new post. Because we accepted our mission after the separation of gods and demons, we came down a little late and did not meet you in the Swamp of Sorrow. Please forgive us."
