The Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu could be said to be traveling light. Behind him were only four middle-aged men in black robes, without excessive attendants. Of course, this was just the number entering the inner palace; how many people were outside was known only to His Majesty himself.

Today, the Demon God Emperor was far from the imposing presence he exuded at the Exorcist Pass fortress. He was wearing a simple black robe, and didn’t seem to emanate any aura at all, looking like an ordinary handsome young man.

With a slight wave of his hand, he helped up the bowing Moon Demon God Agares, “Dear brother, do we need so much formality between us?”

Agares smiled and said, “There is a distinction between the noble and the lowly, and etiquette cannot be abandoned! Your Majesty, please.” In his heart, he thought, would you not care if I really didn’t pay attention to etiquette? Of course, he just muttered it to himself. Even though he was the second-ranked demon god, he was not much different from the other demon gods in front of the Demon God Emperor. The Demon God Emperor’s supreme status was not something he could shake, and he naturally had no desire for it.

The Demon God Emperor nodded and followed Agares towards the palace. Just then, the Demon God Emperor suddenly paused and glanced in one direction.

This one look was significant. Given the Demon God Emperor’s status and cultivation, he was slightly shaken, and his eyes showed a hint of disbelief.

This look startled Moon Demon God Agares, who also looked in the direction he was looking, and what he saw was his most beloved daughter, Yue Ye.

“Your Majesty, you…” Agares was a little nervous. He didn’t want this Majesty to have any ideas about his precious daughter. The Demon God Emperor had always been strong, but he took good care of his subordinates and wouldn’t do anything to hurt their feelings. However, on the other hand, if the Demon God Emperor had any ideas about his daughter, could Agares stop him?

The Demon God Emperor shook his head gently and said, “It’s nothing, let’s go.” After saying this, he muttered something softly. Agares’ hearing was so sharp that he vaguely heard the Demon God Emperor say, “Really looks alike.”

Agares was shocked, unaware that someone was already terrified to the core.

When the Demon God Emperor’s eyes swept over, Yue Ye felt her blood freeze. Her hands instantly gripped her skirt, and her body stiffened like a rock. She didn’t dare move at all, and her heart was constantly shouting: “It’s over, it’s over…” As the person involved, she could naturally feel that the Demon God Emperor’s gaze was not directed at her, but at Long Hao Chen beside her!

Just as the Demon God Emperor walked in, Long Hao Chen couldn’t help but look up again, and it was this simple action that attracted the Demon God Emperor’s attention. The Demon God Emperor’s fleeting glance met Long Hao Chen’s raised head squarely.

Long Hao Chen felt almost the same as Yue Ye. His mind went blank for a moment. The instant the Demon God Emperor’s gaze met his, he immediately felt a terrifyingly powerful energy lock onto his body, isolating him from all external contact. In other words, in that instant, even if he wanted to teleport away through the Haoyue Contract, it was completely impossible.

Long Hao Chen regretted it. He shouldn’t have looked up. He also believed that with the Demon God Emperor’s cultivation, he would definitely be able to detect the attribute of his spiritual power. Was he really going to die here?

However, what happened next surprised him. The Demon God Emperor just followed Moon Demon God Agares and entered the palace. He didn’t take any action against him, nor did his subordinates.

Why did he let me go? Didn’t he detect my Light attribute? With his cultivation, that’s impossible.

Long Hao Chen was filled with doubts, but also with relief. He almost couldn’t help but teleport away. But in the end, he restrained himself. If he left in front of so many people, how would Yue Ye explain it to her people?

The Demon God Emperor finally disappeared from sight under the guidance of the Moon Demon God. Only then did the people of the Moon Demon Clan stand up one by one. In the process of getting up, a cold little hand reached to Long Hao Chen’s waist, pinched a piece of his flesh, and twisted it one hundred and eighty degrees forcefully.

Long Hao Chen felt the pain and twitched, but surprisingly, he didn’t resist. He felt guilty! If the Demon God Emperor hadn’t inexplicably not taken action, he and Yue Ye would have been finished.

“I’m sorry,” Long Hao Chen said in a low voice.

Yue Ye ignored him, her face still very ugly. The lining of her clothes was already soaked with sweat. After the Demon God Emperor left with her father, she felt like she was about to collapse and almost fell to the ground. She understood the Demon God Emperor’s methods much better than Long Hao Chen, so she also had extreme fear in her heart. When this fear left, she had two completely different feelings in her body: exhaustion and climax… This torment made her face look unusually pale. Fortunately, no one would pay attention to her now, as everyone’s minds were still on the Demon God Emperor.

Moon Demon Palace Main Hall.

The Moon Demon God invited the Demon God Emperor to sit in the main seat, himself respectfully accompanying him on the side.

“Your Majesty, why did you come in person? You could have just sent word, and I would have gone over,” Agares said with a smile.

Feng Xiu waved his hand, and the four subordinates he brought, as well as the subordinates of Moon Demon God Agares, all withdrew. Only these two great demon gods remained in the main hall. This simple detail shows how terrifying Feng Xiu’s status in the demon race was. Even the Moon Demon God’s clansmen did not dare to disobey his orders in the slightest.

“Now that there are no outsiders, you and I brothers don’t need to be so formal, right? I came to see you, one is because I have something to discuss, and the other is to see you. We brothers haven’t gathered together in a long time, as we are usually busy with various affairs. Come back with me later. How about we drink our fill tonight? I haven’t been willing to drink the human wine that niece Yue Ye brought back last time.”

Agares smiled and said, “Then I would be unlovable. It’s been a long time since I drank with elder brother. You don’t know, that girl Yue Ye didn’t leave me much. Most of it was sent to you. As a father, I’m jealous.”

Feng Xiu smiled slightly and said, “What’s there to be jealous of? Just come to me if you want to drink. Only you and third brother call me elder brother, do we three brothers still differentiate between each other?”

Agares sighed softly and said, “That kid, third brother, is always researching his divination or something. I went to him twice, but I was turned away both times.”

Hearing Agares’ words, Feng Xiu’s face showed a bit more gravity. “Third brother has been in seclusion for quite a long time this time. As our great prophet, he must have encountered some trouble during the divination process. This is not a good thing. I hope he doesn’t bring bad news.”

Agares somewhat disapprovingly said, “What bad news could there be? Humans? Although they have become stronger these years, they still don’t dare to come out of their tortoise shell. If it weren’t for elder brother wanting to herd them, if we attacked together, could humans really resist?”

Feng Xiu shook his head and said, “Second brother, don’t be careless. Humans have been breeding on this continent for tens of thousands of years, and it’s not that easy to erase them. If we really go all out to deal with them, the final result will likely be a lose-lose situation. Although our chances of winning are higher, what if such a chaotic situation attracts others? At that time, how can we cope with the lose-lose situation? Although I have never considered humans to be too great a threat, we cannot act rashly. The time is not yet right.”

After a moment of silence, Agares asked Feng Xiu, “Elder brother, I’ve always wanted to ask you, what exactly is the time you’re talking about? When can we launch a general attack on humans? We can’t let them develop like this! Human potential cannot be underestimated.”

A look of leisure flashed across Feng Xiu’s eyes. “This time lies within ourselves. I need the clansmen to be more accepting of the existence of humans, and even regard humans as part of our own race. Only then will it be the time for us to deal with the Temple Alliance. What I want is not destruction, but assimilation. Otherwise, our future cannot develop at all. We need the potential of humans.”

Agares was shocked. “Elder brother, are you saying that we should fully accept humans?”

Feng Xiu nodded. “Humans have many advantages and have a deep foundation. Every decree I have issued these years is for assimilation with humans. First, we complete the assimilation process with humans within our territory, and then we slowly plan it. One day, we will make humans a part of us, and at that time, our demon race will definitely become stronger. My goal is not limited to this world, but I hope to launch cross-plane wars like our ancestors in my lifetime.”

“Second brother, what if I let you pass on the position of demon god to Yue Ye? Let her inherit your abilities.” Feng Xiu suddenly said.

Agares was shocked. “Elder brother, how is this possible? The clansmen will not agree.”

Feng Xiu said lightly, “As long as I have my support, who would dare to cause trouble? If we want to completely integrate humans, then we must start with ourselves. Don’t look at this child Yue Ye’s slow progress now. If she can inherit your abilities, her future achievements will definitely be above yours. This is the advantage of human potential.”

Thinking of the Demon God Emperor’s previous look at Yue Ye, Agares couldn’t help but be wary. Could it be that His Majesty wants to devour my Moon Demon Clan? That’s not right! With his strength, he doesn’t need to do this at all, and the Reverse Heaven Demon Dragon Clan has always maintained the purity of its bloodline.

Feng Xiu’s eyes moved slightly, and he said, “I’m just saying it casually. You think about it, I respect your opinion, if you don’t want to, then forget it. Moreover, you are still young, and there is no rush.”
