Chapter 1467

~7 min read 1,379 words

Seeing the big hooks all over Yun Xiantai's body, Xu Jie couldn't help but laugh.

In the next second, powerful forces came one after another, but Yun Xiantai, being a mighty expert of the Emperor Sovereign Realm, remained completely unmoved despite seven or eight large hooks lodged in his body.

His face turned extremely grim as he shouted.

You've turned the heavens upside down, you rebellious disciple—get over here!

Saying this, Yun Xiantai grabbed the iron chain of the hook and yanked hard, pulling Qi Xiong and the others toward him instead.

Demon Emperor...

Qi Xiong's face changed drastically as he shouted; hearing this, Yun Xiantai grew even angrier, his mouth twitching.

Without waiting for Shi Qingfeng to act, he grabbed the now‑front‑facing Qi Xiong and unleashed a fierce beating.

I let you, Demon Emperor, open your dog eyes and see clearly who I am.

Huh?

Hearing the voice felt familiar; upon looking up, Yun Xiantai had already removed his disguise, revealing his true appearance. Qi Xiong stared in surprise and then muttered.

Master?

You still remember me as your master?

No, I...

What's it not? Why are you hooking me with those big hooks?

I thought you were from the demon race.

Demon shit.

Yun Xiantai angrily slapped out again; though he was joyfully returning home, his footing wasn't stable yet, and in the next instant several large hooks came straight at him.

His mood instantly soured; as Yun Xiantai subdued Qi Xiong and the others, Ye Changqing and the rest walked out of the Demon Cave one after another.

Seeing this, Shi Qingfeng and the others looked bewildered, wondering whether those who emerged were demons or someone else.

But as everyone removed their disguises and revealed their true faces, Shi Qingfeng and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a surge of joy.

Brother Yun.

He quickly led his people to Yun Xiantai and the others, while the rest busied themselves clearing the surrounding traps.

How did you manage to come out of the Demon Cave?

Seeing Yun Xiantai and the others walk out of the Demon Cave left Shi Qingfeng completely baffled.

Isn't this Demon Cave supposed to lead to the Demon Realm? How did Yun Xiantai and the others end up coming out here?

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiantai spoke in a deep voice.

That's a long story; we went to the Demon Realm for a treasure, and after many twists we managed to escape narrowly thanks to my old schemes.

Yun Xiantai recounted the events in the Demon Realm to Shi Qingfeng and the others, though he added quite a bit of extra detail.

At least the Yongye assassin beside them was listening with his mouth twitching.

Your schemes? Your damn schemes—if it weren't for good luck, we'd still be hiding out in the Demon Realm.

She obviously couldn't say such things, but upon hearing Yun Xiantai's words, Shi Qingfeng and the others were filled with astonishment.

So it was that perilous.

We'll talk about the nonsense later; first, let's destroy the Demon Cave.

After a trip to the Demon Realm, Yun Xiantai also came to understand its strength; the Demon Realm is far more complicated than they had thought.

Therefore, this Demon Cave must not be left standing; otherwise, if the demons came through it, even if Yun Xiantai and the others returned now, they couldn't stop them.

And don't forget, the others are still in the Black Cloud Realm.

Hearing this, Shi Qingfeng nodded and had no objection; with Yun Xiantai and five Emperor Sovereign experts helping, plus the demons' side having just been thrown into chaos earlier.

Even if they wanted to keep the Demon Cave open, they couldn't.

This time, everyone easily destroyed the Demon Cave completely.

After destroying the Demon Cave, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

By the way, what about the others?

At that moment, Shi Qingfeng noticed how Yun Xiantai and the others had returned, and wondered where the others were.

Upon hearing that, Yun Xiantai didn't hide anything and answered truthfully.

So you guys aren't staying long either?

Probably we can't stay too long; there are still some matters unresolved in the myriad worlds.

This...

Also, you need to be careful about the demon race; they're not as simple as we thought.

He told Shi Qingfeng and the others everything he had seen and heard in the myriad worlds, as well as the situation of the demon race.

Upon hearing this, Shi Qingfeng felt even greater pressure, yet he and his companions also longed for the myriad worlds.

Compared to the entirety of the myriad worlds, the Haotu world is like a grain of sand in the vast sea—utterly insignificant.

The myriad worlds are surely going to be even more exciting.

However, the Haotu world still needs someone to hold down the fort right now, so even if Shi Qingfeng and the others wanted to go, they can't.

We might rest a few days and then leave.

With the Demon Cave gone, everyone temporarily returned to the Dao Yi Holy Land.

Meanwhile, in the Demon Realm, the Demon Cave was destroyed and Yun Xiantai and the others escaped successfully; the two demon emperors naturally bear the main responsibility.

At this moment, a host of demon emperors gathered in the main hall, which originally belonged to them.

Eight demon emperors in total stared at those two demon emperors, their faces grim.

You say you're idle, so why did you bother with that Demon Cave?

I...... we also want to take down Haotu Shijie, to wipe away our past shame.

What's the outcome? Have you wiped away the shame? Or is it just adding shame upon shame?

I...

In response, the two demon emperors were speechless; the person had fled, and the Demon Cave was not held either—before the other demon emperors could arrive, Yun Xiantai and the others had already forcibly destroyed it.

Although they tried desperately to stop it, in the end it was of no use.

Faced with the rebukes of the other eight demon emperors, they knew they were in the wrong and had nothing to say.

At that moment, one of the demon emperors spoke in a low voice.

The Demon Ancestor already knows about this; you just wait to be punished.

Hmph, the Demon Yuan Fruit was seized, and in the end they even let the person escape—this is simply a tremendous disgrace to our Demon Clan.

Are they people from the Haotu world? This emperor will absolutely not let them go.

Then should we rebuild the Demon Cave?

Seeing this, the two demon emperors spoke carefully; given their current awkward situation, they naturally had to be more cautious in their words and deeds.

Most importantly, the Demon Ancestor's side still hasn't made its position clear, so they dare not act rashly.

They only hope to redeem themselves through merit.

However, upon hearing their words, the remaining eight demon emperors shook their heads; the demon emperor who had spoken earlier looked grim.

For now we have no time to deal with the Haotu world; the Myriad Worlds Ancient Stele is about to open, which is far more important than the Demon Yuan Fruit.

That's correct; the Demon Ancestor also places great importance on this.

Let's set it aside for now; anyway they can't run away, we'll discuss it after the Myriad Worlds Ancient Stele matter is settled.

Hmm, you guys shouldn't stir up any more trouble lately; just stay put and be at ease.

When the Myriad Worlds Ancient Stele is brought up, the faces of all the demon emperors turn solemn; clearly, this matter is far more important than the Demon Yuan Fruit and the Haotu world.

As a result, they currently have no energy to concern themselves with the Haotu world.

If the person hadn't fled, we could have resolved it before the Myriad Worlds Ancient Stele opened, but now that the person has fled, we lack the time and energy to pursue them further.

We can only discuss it after the Myriad Worlds Ancient Stele ends; as for the losses this time, well...

All the demon emperors' gazes were fixed on those two demon emperors; naturally, it was up to them to take responsibility.
