As Sheng Ning and the others walked away, a fluorescent green figure stood out among the group of Invincible Sect disciples dressed in moon-white sect robes.
Apart from Elder Qian, who fainted from anger, the other elders all sighed deeply.
"The world is about to change."
Sheng Ning didn't know if the world would change.
All she knew was that the fate of the Demon Realm was about to change.
On their way to the Demon Realm with Su Daiyuan and his group, Sheng Ning suddenly turned to look at Xuan Ming.
The latter's expression remained unpleasant. Seeing her turn her head, he immediately turned his head away, snorted coldly, and refused to look at her.
Sheng Ning noticed his subtle actions, her eyes crinkling with a smile, but her words stung Xuan Ming.
"Xuanming, as a Demon Lord, you haven't returned to the Demon Clan for so long, yet no demons have come looking for you. Do you think that's why?"
Xuanming remained silent, but his body, which Sheng Ning was holding, suddenly stiffened for a moment.
Sheng Ning didn't expect him to answer. Her smile widened, and she opened her red lips slightly, laughing as she spoke.
"Let me analyze this for you. You deeply love Shi Yueyao and wish you could give her your whole heart. You even specially created so many goddess statues for her so that she could absorb the power of faith."
"But doesn't she always ignore you, and you chase after her like a lapdog, trying to get a little bit of her pity?"
"You must have said something like 'Shi Yueyao's words are equivalent to your own words' in your clan, and told your subordinates to treat her as half a master, right?"
"So guess why, even though I've had you kidnapped for so long, no demon from the Demon Realm has come looking for you?"
"Of course it's because your subordinates, your demon race, don't want you anymore~"
Sheng Ning spoke softly and slowly, yet every word pierced Xuan Ming's heart.
The latter frowned, and finally couldn't help but snap at her, "What do you know!"
“I really don’t understand,” Sheng Ning laughed.
She turned her head to look at Qin Chuan and smiled, "Actually, there are others here who, like you, have silently sacrificed for Shi Yueyao, but unfortunately, that's just how her character is."
"She will stop at nothing to achieve her goals, and everyone will become a stepping stone on her path to immortality."
"Once you're no longer of any use to her, she'll kick you to the curb."
This time, Xuanming refused to listen to anything Sheng Ning said.
Although A Yao's temper was indeed much worse after her reincarnation.
But that was A Yao, whom he had been searching for for so many years. How could he let his relationship with A Yao break down just because of two words from Sheng Ning?
Thinking of this, Xuanming didn't say another word the rest of the way.
Seeing that he was pretending to be dead, Sheng Ning also shut her mouth.
Some people are like that; they won't turn back until they hit a brick wall.
However, Qin Chuan's change surprised her.
Sensing the change in Sheng Ning's expression as she looked at him, Qin Chuan's usually stern face stiffened.
Fortunately, they soon arrived at Youyun City and saw the Ghost Locust Tree whose bark had been peeled off.
The once bustling Youyun City is now a far cry from its former glory.
At this moment, Youyun City had already become a dead city.
The corpses of demon cultivators left behind during Sheng Ning's last great battle with the demons have remained unattended to this day.
An indescribable atmosphere permeated the streets.
Sheng Ning and his group stood in front of the flower bed where the ghost locust tree had been planted. "How do we get in?"
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Xuan Ming.
Seeing that the other party had closed his eyes and refused to pay attention to anything, Yu Ye immediately took out the laser cannon and swallowed Xuan Ming's entire face.
“Speak up, or I’ll shoot you dead.”
Xuanming: ......
Guan Yunchuan:......
The empty space beside him chanted a Buddhist prayer, "Entering the Demon Realm is not difficult; all you need to do is dig open this place."
The Ghost Tree is just a passageway; the important thing is how to teleport to the Demon Realm.
There are many entrances to the Demon Realm, but Youyun City provides direct access to the Demon Realm headquarters, making it much more convenient than searching for other entrances.
Monks do not lie.
After Kong Wu finished speaking, Sheng Ning clearly saw Xuan Ming's lips tighten for a moment.
"Then let's dig it up, get the road through, and then we can block the hole later."
Xuanming opened his eyes in an instant, and what he saw was Sheng Ning and the others preparing to dig up the flower bed.
Xuanming's pupils contracted for a moment, and just as he was about to open his mouth to say 'no,' the flower bed had already been dug up.
Sheng Ning and the others craned their necks to look, and when they saw that what was under the flower bed was not soil, but a thick black mist, the group immediately grabbed their magical artifacts and jumped down.
The demons will be busy these days.
With the great battle imminent, all the demonic cultivators were training hard, and even the demonic cultivators guarding the entrance were so exhausted that they started to doze off.
When they sensed something approaching, one of the demonic cultivators struggled to open his eyes.
Upon seeing the person before him, the demonic cultivator thought he was seeing things and quickly woke up his companion.
"Wake up, quickly help me see if the person in front of me is Sheng Ning?"
Sheng Ning had long been an old acquaintance of the demonic cultivators.
After all, it was she who took the Demon Lord away back then, and even if Sheng Ning turned to ashes, they would still recognize her.
The demonic cultivator who had been struck immediately raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and after recognizing who it was, he was so shocked that he immediately stood up from his chair.
"Quickly! Quickly notify the others, Sheng Ning is here!"
"Where is Madam? Madam once said that she would summon Sheng Ning when she arrived, and now Sheng Ning has really come!"
Seeing the two demonic cultivators pacing around in shock, Sheng Ning withdrew her gaze and turned her attention to Xuan Ming.
"Demon Lord, have you properly trained even one demon cultivator all these years?"
If the demons invade in the future, will she have to fight these demonic cultivators?
Xuanming felt utterly humiliated.
He shouted angrily, "What kind of behavior is this!"
Upon hearing Xuanming's voice, the two demonic cultivators immediately stopped their hurried steps.
They glanced at Xuanming, seemingly thinking they were hallucinating, and only realized it after rubbing their eyes.
The Demon Lord, whom the lady had been searching for so long, has finally returned!
"Demon Lord, you've finally returned!"
"Yes, Demon Lord, the Lady said she was looking for you, but she has remained inactive. I dared not say more, but thankfully you have finally returned, Demon Lord."
"These days have truly been tough for the Demon Lord."
The two demonic cultivators kept talking back and forth.
Xuanming felt utterly ashamed. He took a deep breath and spoke again in a deep voice, "Nonsense! How could Madam let me be taken away without looking for me?"
"Where is Madam? Tell her to come see me!"
Xuanming felt a little flustered.
Because Sheng Ning correctly guessed what Shi Yueyao would do after he was kidnapped.
That's why he's not in a hurry to break free from the binding rope, but is instead eager to find Shi Yueyao to verify the facts.
Upon hearing him speak, Sheng Ning immediately stopped the two demonic cultivators from their tracks.
"Please wait a moment. When you summon Shi Yueyao, please bring Xianying along as well."
"The demon cultivators are so strangely shaped. I'm afraid I'll have to wash my eyes when I get back, which would be a waste of time."
Two demonic cultivators: ......
