After finishing their business, Ruan Xiyan and the others went out for a big meal to celebrate.
As night fell, Ruan Xiyan sat on the rooftop, admiring the moon while enjoying the cool breeze to sober up.
"Ayan." A familiar voice rang out from the surroundings.
Ruan Xiyan's eyes were glazed over; she seemed to have just heard A Yu's voice.
She looked around but didn't see anyone, and thought she was hallucinating.
"Ayan," Jun Yu's gentle voice rang out again, "the Demon Sound Stone."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Xiyan's mind cleared for a moment, and she quickly took out the Demon Sound Stone.
The Demonic Sound Stone was shining brightly; the sound from earlier had come from it.
Ruan Xiyan gazed at the Demon Sound Stone, her voice filled with longing, "Ayu, I miss you."
Sensing something amiss in Ruan Xiyan's words, Jun Yu paused for a moment, then said, "You've been drinking."
"I was happy today, so I had a little bit of a drink," Ruan Xiyan replied with a smile.
Junyu's helpless voice was tinged with indulgence.
Given her alcohol tolerance, if it were just a little bit, her voice wouldn't be so soft, languid yet alluring.
"Sweetie, Ayan, go ask the kitchen to make you a bowl of hangover soup, otherwise you'll have a headache tomorrow morning." Junyu said carefully, as if coaxing a child.
"No, just talk to me for a while, and I'll sober up," Ruan Xiyan said coquettishly.
“Okay.” No matter what Ruan Xiyan said, Jun Yu agreed unconditionally.
If it weren't for the matters concerning the demon realm that kept him away, he would have wanted to fly to her side immediately when Ayan said she missed him.
As Jun Yu gazed at the blood moon in the sky, listening to the sounds emanating from the Demonic Sound Stone, he was surrounded by demons.
A gentle smile graced his face, his expression one of unprecedented tenderness and doting. He parted his lips slightly, occasionally responding in a low voice.
The demon guards on duty nearby were no less shocked by Jun Yu's appearance than if the demon realm were about to be destroyed.
Is this still the same ruthless, merciless, and unpredictable Demon Lord?!
Seemingly sensing that someone was spying on him, Jun Yu glanced lightly at the demon guards.
The demon guards trembled in fear and immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look again.
That look is definitely their Demon Lord, absolutely no doubt about it!
The next day, Ruan Xiyan woke up in bed, stretched, and then left her room in high spirits.
After spending a few days arranging everything at the Illusionary Hidden Sect, she still had to go out and gain experience.
Only by going out to train and experiencing real battles can her strength be improved rapidly.
Moreover, her strength has reached a bottleneck, and breaking through to the pseudo-immortal realm is a crucial matter. It is said that a tribulation of lightning will also be coming.
The power of the lightning tribulation faced by each person will be different. Regardless of the intensity of the lightning tribulation, once the tribulation is overcome, one's strength will break through that barrier and rise to a higher level.
If they fail to survive the tribulation, let alone whether they can save their lives during the lightning tribulation.
Even if they are lucky enough to survive, their strength will regress or even stagnate, and they will be stuck at the bottleneck of the ninth level of the Supreme Realm for their entire lives, unable to take another step forward.
In short, the pseudo-immortal realm is not easy to reach, but once you break through it, your strength will undergo a tremendous change.
Simply staying in the Illusionary Hidden Sect to cultivate will prevent one from breaking through the ninth level of the Supreme Realm and reaching the Pseudo-Immortal Realm.
The overall strength of the Illusionary Concealment Sect needs to be improved, and as the sect leader, her strength cannot lag behind.
If the Illusionary Hidden Sect becomes a top-tier power in the future, then as its leader, she must possess strength sufficient to intimidate everyone.
In the past few days, Ruan Xiyan and Yu Qiqi, along with several other elders, have carried out another round of reforms to the Illusionary Hidden Sect.
After that, Ruan Xiyan left the Illusionary Hidden Sect alone.
In the westernmost part of the continent, there is a chaotic place. It is remote and very barren, but there are also many dangerous places in that area.
The chaotic land does not belong to any power. Because there is no one to govern it, all kinds of desperados gather here, and local tyrants who occupy the mountains and dominate the area have emerged one after another. Among them are some powerful bandits.
This chaotic place covers a vast area, and several forces have coveted it, wanting to seize it for themselves.
As a result, those forces not only suffered a crushing defeat, but also completely disappeared from the continent a few months later.
Located at the very center of the chaotic land, is a city called Chaotic City. It can be said to be the largest city in the chaotic land, and desperate people covered in bloodthirsty aura can be seen everywhere in the city.
A handsome young man dressed in white walked down the street. His fair complexion and refined demeanor revealed a hint of wickedness.
He appeared harmless and powerless, seemingly out of place with everything around him, like a little white rabbit that had mistakenly wandered into a wolf's den.
And this "little white rabbit" is none other than Ruan Xiyan, who is disguised as a man.
Ruan Xiyan held a folding fan, looking every bit the elegant young master from a noble family. When traveling, it's more convenient to dress as a man and avoid unnecessary trouble.
She looked around and saw many fierce eyes, like hungry wolves eyeing their prey.
Ruan Xiyan kept her eyes straight ahead and continued walking forward, as if unaware that she was being watched.
Many burly, desperate men immediately followed Ruan Xiyan.
It's truly presumptuous of a scion of a powerful family to be able to intrude into such a chaotic place. However, such a scion of a powerful family must possess many valuable items.
No matter how powerful they are outside, when they come to a chaotic place, dragons must coil up and tigers must lie low.
Even if those scions of noble families die here, no one will care, after all, many people die every day in this chaotic land.
Ruan Xiyan hadn't gone far when she was stopped by five or six people in a group.
"Hey kid, stop right there!"
Ruan Xiyan turned around, her eyes sweeping over the group of people. "What's up?"
"Kid, you're new to Chaotic City, aren't you? Looks like you don't know the rules here. You have to pay protection money to get here." The leader, carrying a large knife on his shoulder, glared menacingly at Ruan Xiyan.
They took advantage of Ruan Xiyan's ignorance and tried to deceive her.
In their eyes, Ruan Xiyan was like a fish on a chopping board, completely at their mercy.
The others in Chaotic City watched this scene with amusement, thinking that the young boy was in for trouble. Why did he have to run to Chaotic City of all places?
"Protection fee?" Ruan Xiyan slowly uttered these three words.
"Yes, hand over your valuables, and I'll protect you." The burly man pointed a knife at Ruan Xiyan, his eyes full of impatience.
Once this young man hands over his valuables, we can send him on his way.
She's so weak and frail; keeping her around is pointless. It's better to just kill her.
Looking at the large knife pointed at her, Ruan Xiyan narrowed her eyes, "I hate it when people point knives at me the most."
