At this moment, inside the palace of Zhuxing City, Li Daoyi opened his eyes from meditation, then raised his head and looked intently at the distant sky. He saw a dark cloud drifting slowly and eerily over from the horizon.
"They've arrived." Li Daoyi smiled slightly.
Meanwhile, inside the dark clouds, Ye Wuxin and the others also became slightly nervous and couldn't help but look at the small figure beside them.
"My Lord, are we just going to cross over like this?" Ye Wuxin asked.
The little butterfly fluttered its wings and slowly flew to the group. Then everyone noticed that the dark clouds had stopped, and they quickly stopped flying forward as well.
"What's wrong?"
"That person spotted me," Xiaodie said.
"..." Everyone was stunned.
"It seems this person is even stronger than I imagined," Xiaodie continued.
"Then what should we do?"
"Wait a minute, all of you be quiet and listen to me. I'll talk to him first."
"good."
Little Butterfly nodded, then continued to flap her wings and fly forward, the dark clouds moving along with her.
The sudden appearance of these strange dark clouds in the clear daylight naturally attracted the attention of the human royal palace. Before long, the Empress and others also came to Li Daoyi's side.
"Your Majesty, something has happened! For some reason, a dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky. It doesn't seem to be naturally formed; it looks like someone is controlling it," the Empress said hurriedly.
“That’s right. I noticed it from the very beginning. Logically, clouds should change shape as they move with the wind, but this dark cloud has remained unchanged from start to finish, which is very unusual,” Sword Saint added.
"I'll send someone to check right away," the Empress continued.
“No need,” Li Daoyi said.
Everyone looked at him.
“The Demon Clan,” Li Daoyi said slowly.
"Demon race? Your Excellency, do you mean the demon race?" Xuan Yue asked in confusion.
Li Daoyi shook his head.
"I'm talking about the demon race, not some half-baked demon human race. I can smell the aura of the demon race," Li Daoyi said.
The group looked at each other in confusion. At first, they thought Li Daoyi had made a mistake and referred to the Demon Race as the Demon Race.
"Interesting. I didn't expect to encounter demons in this realm."
After Li Daoyi finished speaking, his body began to slowly float up.
"Don't move," Li Daoyi said.
"Yes, Your Excellency." The group quickly replied, their eyes following Li Daoyi.
Soon Li Daoyi flew into the air, and he took a deep breath, his abdomen swelling up.
"What is Your Excellency trying to do?" Sword Saint asked, bewildered.
Then the group witnessed an unbelievable scene: Li Daoyi suddenly blew a breath forward.
"Huff...huff..."
The surrounding airflow suddenly changed, and a gust of wind blew towards the distant dark clouds.
"Oh no, be careful!" Little Butterfly exclaimed from within the dark clouds.
Before the others could react, they suddenly felt a gust of wind. They quickly used their internal energy to resist, but the wind was much stronger than they had imagined, like a devastating force. Apart from Ye Wuxin, who was holding onto Yi Feiyu, nearly a hundred powerful members of the Demon Clan and Winged Clan were blown away by the wind in an instant.
"Stay close to me!" Xiaodie shouted.
"Yes," Ye Wuxin replied, desperately resisting the raging wind.
A red light flashed across Xiaodie's body, and then a red barrier appeared around the three of them, and the gale disappeared.
Ye Wuxin and Yi Feiyu looked around in fear. The dark clouds that had concealed them had long been blown away, and they had no idea where their subordinates had been blown away.
"My Lord, what happened just now? Why was the wind so strong?" Ye Wuxin asked.
"It's that person. It seems he's trying to intimidate us," Xiaodie said in a deep voice.
"Hiss..." The two of them gasped in shock.
After a while, the three of them realized that the strong winds around them had dissipated.
At this moment, Li Daoyi had already landed back on the ground, and the Empress and the others also saw the figure that appeared after the dark clouds disappeared.
"It's the Demon King."
"What's going on? Why is he here?"
"That's Yi Feiyu, how come they're together?"
The group exclaimed in shock.
"Your Excellency is the king of the Demon Race, the number one expert in the world, the Demon Saint Ye Wuxin," the Sword Martial Saint hurriedly introduced.
"Okay, go and invite them down." Li Daoyi said and then sat down.
“Uh…” Sword Saint was stunned for a moment.
"Brother Swordsman." Xuan Yue quickly nudged him.
"Ah...yes, I'll go right away." With that, the Sword Saint leaped into the air.
Soon, the Sword Saint arrived in front of the three of them. He was also stunned when he saw the little butterfly figure in front of the Demon King.
"It's been a long time, Sword Saint," Ye Wuxin said first.
"This is a human place, what are you doing here?" Jian Wusheng asked bluntly.
"Haha, what, aren't you welcome?" Ye Wuxin laughed.
Upon hearing this, Jian Wusheng gave him a deep look, then his gaze returned to the butterfly figurine.
"The Demon Clan? Could the Demon Clan that the Venerable One just mentioned be her?" Sword Saint wondered to himself.
"Are you a demon?" Sword Saint asked, looking at Xiao Die.
"Yes, that person told you, right?" Xiaodie nodded.
"Come with me, the Supreme One wishes to see you." After saying this, the Sword Saint turned and flew towards the palace.
"My Lord, what should we do? Could it be a trap?" Ye Wuxin asked worriedly.
Xiaodie shook her head.
"The strong have their pride. Would you lay a hand on a mere ant?" Xiaodie said, looking at Ye Wuxin.
"Ants..." Ye Wuxin's expression became extremely complicated. This was the first time in his life that someone had addressed him like that.
Yi Feiyu, who was standing to the side, was also stunned for a moment when she saw this.
"That person is stronger than I imagined. Let's go!" Xiaodie said slowly.
The three of them flew towards the palace.
"Your Excellency, they have arrived," said the Sword Saint.
"Um."
Soon the three of them landed as well, and Xiaodie fluttered her wings and landed on the stone table in front of Li Daoyi.
"The Crimson Corpse God of the Demon Realm greets Your Excellency." Xiao Die gave Li Daoyi a slight bow.
"Ye Wuxin of the Demon Clan greets Senior."
"Winged Human Yi Feiyu greets Senior."
Xuan Yue and the others looked at Xiao Die with curiosity, never expecting that this cute little person was actually a demon.
"The Illusionary Butterfly Clan, right?" Li Daoyi asked.
"Yes, I am from the Illusionary Butterfly Clan of the Demon Realm," Little Butterfly said.
"Do you need something from me? Or are you planning to stand up for the Winged People?" Li Daoyi asked.
Upon hearing this, Yi Feiyu's body trembled uncontrollably. At this moment, he had long since given up any thought of avenging Yi Bailie.
"Senior, please don't misunderstand. Yi Bailie deserved to die," Yi Feiyu quickly said.
"Shut up!" Xiaodie turned around and scolded.
Yi Feiyu was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head. Ye Wuxin also shook his head, having just reminded him not to speak carelessly before coming.
“You misunderstand, sir. I’m here simply to get to know you. Also, I’d like to know if you’re from the realm of gods,” Xiaodie said.
"The realm of gods? No," Li Daoyi denied.
"No..." Xiaodie's expression changed visibly, as if she was quite surprised.
"And you? As far as I know, people from the realms of gods and demons cannot appear here, right?" Li Daoyi asked in return.
"Well, I accidentally wandered into a secret realm and lost my way. When I found the exit, I came to this world." Xiaodie seemed a little embarrassed.
"A secret realm? That shouldn't be the case. Did you touch anything strange?" Li Daoyi said, frowning.
“It was a formation. I touched it, and I felt a strange energy fluctuation at the time.” Xiaodie’s eyes darted around before she nodded.
Why did you enter the secret realm?
"I have something very important on me, and I must return it to my clan as soon as possible. But I was being hunted down by many powerful demons at the time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable," Xiaodie said.
"What is it?" Li Daoyi asked.
Xiaodie hesitated for a moment, then gave Li Daoyi a deep look. She then waved her hand in the air, and a gray jar appeared beside her with a seal on it.
The moment the jar appeared, everyone felt a chill, a bone-deep cold, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.
“The Demon Heart…” Li Daoyi said, then stood up and walked to the jar to examine it carefully.
"You know?" Xiaodie asked, somewhat surprised.
“Tsk tsk… Little guy, you’re not behaving yourself.” Li Daoyi then said.
“You…” Xiaodie looked up in surprise.
"You stole this, didn't you? The consequences will be unimaginable. You can fool these people, but you can't fool me." Li Daoyi looked at Xiaodie and laughed.
"Oh, you figured it out." Xiaodie stuck out her tongue and said a little embarrassedly.
"Your Excellency, what is the Demon Heart?" the Sword Saint asked.
"Do you remember what I told you about the realms after Martial God?"
"Of course we remember." The group nodded.
“The demon race’s realm is similar to that, and this demon heart is the heart of a dead demon king,” Li Daoyi explained.
"Demon King..." Ye Wuxin exclaimed in surprise. He had heard of the Demon King realm from Xiao Die; it was an incredibly powerful being.
"Hehehe...it's the Demon King's heart." Xiaodie suddenly laughed.
"You little brat, you're really bold. You're trying to use the Demon King's Heart to help yourself break through, aren't you?" Li Daoyi laughed.
"Moreover, you didn't get lost and end up here. You must have found the Shang Valley teleportation array, right?" Li Daoyi pressed.
"You're really amazing, you guessed it all," Xiaodie exclaimed.
"Foolish." Suddenly, Li Daoyi's tone turned stern. Then, his aura exploded completely, and everyone present was immediately trembling with fear.
"You..." Xiaodie was taken aback. Her eyes were full of doubt, as were the others.
"The Hundred Races Continent is about to lose its peace," Li Daoyi said slowly, withdrawing his imposing aura.
"Your Majesty, you..." the Empress couldn't help but ask.
"Sigh, once the teleportation array is activated, the spatial energy above it will definitely be sensed by powerful individuals. Next, the demon race will most likely appear," Li Daoyi sighed.
Upon hearing this, everyone present was thunderstruck and turned to look at the culprit, Xiaodie.
