Chapter 535
Although Lou Lu was a Sovereign Realm expert, Liu Mengli's secret was clearly more important. From the information read from the other party's memory, such a Sovereign Realm expert who was enough to become a City Lord was just arranged to handle things.
As for more information about Liu Mengli, Lou Lu didn't know.
It was precisely because of this that everyone felt that the information wasn't much, but the amount of information was large.
"It seems your family's secrets are really not few." Lu Li dissipated the power controlling Lou Lu. The other party had already been controlled by Lilithmon X and reduced to a puppet, posing no threat at all.
"I don't know either." After this period of time, Liu Yanran had also recovered a bit. She also knew that there was no way to be anxious now: "Since I have memories, there has only been my mother by my side, and she almost never mentions past experiences."
"At first, I thought it was because my mother didn't want to mention those sad things, but now it seems there is clearly a hidden story in this."
When she said this, Liu Yanran's tone was also very complex. Even though she only had one relative, her mother, she had no dissatisfaction. After all, Liu Mengli's meticulous care for her was obvious to all.
It was just that everything that happened today had exceeded her imagination, and she had never expected that she would encounter such a thing.
"Don't worry, this might not be a bad thing." Lu Li hugged Liu Yanran tightly: "Although the information just obtained is not much, these people have designs on Auntie, they must have other motives. Before they get what they want, Auntie should have no life safety problems."
Not only Liu Mengli, but they also wanted to take Liu Yanran away. This might mean that just a Liu Mengli was not enough to complete those people's schemes.
It was precisely because of this that Lu Li had such a guess. Of course, more importantly, it was to comfort Liu Yanran and not let the girl think wildly.
"I'll set off to chase them now. Don't worry, I will definitely bring Auntie back safely." Comforting Liu Yanran, Lu Li then summoned the Imperialdramon again, and the appearance of this huge dragon beast also caused a sensation in Cangyue City.
Not only because of the huge size of this dragon species, but also the terrifying pressure it emitted, which was constantly explaining that this Magic Card spirit was definitely not to be trifled with.
Therefore, almost in the next instant, the City Lord of Cangyue City, Lin Heling, came directly to the Liu house, looking at the huge Imperialdramon with eyes full of dread.
A 9-star Magic Card spirit, and a dragon species at that—even Lin Heling felt it was tricky.
Moreover, besides the Imperialdramon, Lin Heling also felt that there was an even more terrifying energy source inside the Liu house, which made her face instantly grave. When did such a terrifying person appear in Cangyue City?
If this person harbored malice toward Cangyue City, she might not be able to stop them.
"City Lord Lin, I'll trouble you with Yanran and Wan'er. They will explain the specifics to you." Lu Li appeared in front of Lin Heling with the women.
After giving a simple instruction, Lu Li took Lilithmon X and the controlled Lou Lu, boarded the Imperialdramon, and set off, leaving behind a wind-blown Lin Heling.
1013. Secret of the Demon Lord
By directly summoning the Imperialdramon, Lu Li's purpose was to attract Lin Heling, the City Lord of Cangyue City. With her there, he could ensure the safety of Liu Yanran and Shangguan Wan'er.
Moreover, the other party knew about the changes in the Liu family and knew about the Demon Domain's intervention in this matter, so she would definitely realize where the problem lay, and might even take the two women directly to Cangdu, as this was no longer something she, a small City Lord, could control.
"Was that Lu Li just now? Can anyone tell me what happened?" Looking at the Imperialdramon that had disappeared from view in the blink of an eye, Lin Heling hadn't reacted yet and could only turn her gaze to Shangguan Wan'er and Liu Yanran.
Since they had both just come out of the Liu house, and Liu Yanran was the daughter of the Liu family, she must know a lot.
Moreover, Lin Heling also had an impression of Shangguan Wan'er, the daughter of the Cangdu Magic Card Association branch.
Although she really wanted to know what kind of relationship Lu Li had with these two women, figuring out what just happened was the most important thing right now.
"Let me say it." Shangguan Wan'er spoke and simply stated the information she knew.
Although Liu Yanran's mood had calmed down a bit, she probably had no intention of speaking now.
"Demon Domain! Such a thing actually happened!" After listening to Shangguan Wan'er's description, Lin Heling's face changed again, and she realized where the problem was in an instant: "Let's go, we'll go to Cangdu now!"
Just as Lu Li thought, Lin Heling also understood that this was not something she, a small City Lord of Cangyue City, could handle.
"Is there still no news from Lou Lu?" At the border of the ancient kingdom, Guan Zhiwen asked, while her eyes swept toward Liu Mengli in the center of the team.
Although she was in this team of Demon Domain Magic Card creators, Liu Mengli's face was still very calm, and she didn't seem to have been harmed at all.
This seemed a bit weird.
"Not yet." In the team, a Sovereign Realm Magic Card creator heard Guan Zhiwen's question and immediately replied: "My lord, if we continue to wait like this, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time."
It had been nearly half a month since they took Liu Mengli away. Unfortunately, there was still no news from Lou Lu.
Therefore, some Magic Card creators in the team were already looking a bit anxious.
Although this was the border of the ancient kingdom and they could leave the ancient kingdom at any time, dragging it out like this was also unfavorable for them.
"I know, but just the Princess alone is not enough to complete our plan." Guan Zhiwen naturally knew this, but she was also helpless. Even though she was an Immortal Realm Magic Card creator, for this plan alone, Liu Mengli alone could not complete it.
Princess—a very special title. Neither in the ancient kingdom nor in the Holy See was there such a title.
This belonged to one of the three major empires, the Demon Domain, and it was an honorable title that only the direct descendants of the Demon Lord possessed.
Clearly, Liu Mengli's identity was not ordinary.
"After so many years, you still haven't given up. Should I say you have perseverance, or do you think I will change my mind?" Liu Mengli spoke slowly, interrupting the conversation of Guan Zhiwen and the others. From her words, it could be concluded that she was aware of Guan Zhiwen and the others' plan and purpose.
"Princess, from the moment you left the Demon Domain, we, including the Demon Lord, knew your determination." Guan Zhiwen bowed slightly to Liu Mengli: "But over the years, the Demon Domain has also undergone many changes. Now the situation within the Demon Domain is on the verge of collapse."
Even though Liu Mengli was only a Sovereign Realm expert and she was an Immortal Realm expert, she could still see Guan Zhiwen's respect for Liu Mengli.
"Do you think I will believe this?" Unfortunately, Liu Mengli clearly didn't believe Guan Zhiwen's words.
With the Demon Lord, a Supreme, guarding the place, who in the Demon Domain would dare to touch the reverse scale of this Supreme Realm expert?
The reason why the three major empires were the three major empires and had always stood tall in Magic Card civilization was not because of how strong the national power of the three major empires was—that was only one reason—but the most core reason was because there were Supremes!
A Supreme guarding the place—this was the reason why an empire was an empire, and the reason why the empire's national power was strong.
Of course, the Dragon Valley was an exception; that rebellious Long Huang could only be said to be an exception.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Mengli wouldn't believe Guan Zhiwen's words. How could an empire guarded by a Supreme collapse just because it said so?
Otherwise, wouldn't this be too much of a joke, and what did they take a Supreme for? Cats and dogs on the side of the road?
"... Indeed, if the Demon Lord were still there, naturally no one would dare to cause chaos in the Demon Domain. But what if the Demon Lord's situation is not ideal, and even in danger of falling at any time?" Guan Zhiwen took a deep breath and made a very shocking statement.
"What did you say!" Liu Mengli, who had always been very calm, had her face change drastically upon hearing this statement from Guan Zhiwen. Her figure moved, and she arrived in front of Guan Zhiwen, staring at the other party with her eyes fixed.
To be honest, Liu Mengli actually didn't believe Guan Zhiwen's words. What kind of person was a Supreme? Even the rebellious Long Huang back then, facing the siege of three Supremes, wasn't killed in the end and could only be sealed.
This already showed that wanting to take away a Supreme's life was definitely not an easy thing.
But now, Guan Zhiwen was telling her that the Demon Lord was in danger of falling at any time? This was like joking with her.
However, Liu Mengli had to consider this possibility.
For one thing, she had left the Demon Domain for a long time, and she didn't know what kind of situation the Demon Lord and the Demon Domain were in now. Moreover, Liu Mengli didn't think Guan Zhiwen would joke with her about this, daring to joke about the life and death of a Supreme.
For another, she also knew that although she had been hiding in the ancient kingdom for so many years, if they really wanted to find her whereabouts, the Demon Domain, as one of the three major empires, had the ability to do so.
Just like now, the other party came directly to her door to take her away, which showed that the other party had always been in control of her whereabouts, just hadn't come to her door.
Seeing Liu Mengli so excited, Guan Zhiwen didn't hide anything anymore, but told everything that had happened over the years, including why the Demon Lord, this Supreme, was in critical condition.
1014, Princess Blood Sacrifice!
"To think such a thing has happened," after listening to Guan Zhiwen's description, Liu Mengli's eyes flickered, her expression shifting between light and shadow.
She had not expected that so many things would happen within the Demon Realm during the time she had been away, but most importantly, the Sovereign of the Demon Realm, the Demon Lord, had fallen into a coma and was in critical condition!
And the root cause of the Demon Lord's critical condition lay in the fact that they had been injured while attempting to break through to a higher level!
Knowing the threat and danger posed by the beasts from beyond the realm, whether it was the Empress of the Ancient Kingdom, the Pope of the Holy See, or the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm, all were seeking to break through to a higher level, because only by breaking through to a higher level would it be possible to resolve the danger when the beasts from beyond the realm attacked.
After all, the beasts from beyond the realm had already destroyed countless civilizations, and behind the beasts from beyond the realm, there existed beings even stronger than the Star Eaters.
Facing such beings, being merely in the Supreme Realm, to be honest, was not enough to cope.
But the Magic Card civilization had continued for such a long time, and the Supreme Realm was already the peak; there had never been any word of the birth of an existence that transcended the Supreme Realm.
It was precisely because of this that the Empress, the Pope, and the Demon Lord were all actually groping for a breakthrough, and this kind of groping often meant risk—a risk that could threaten even the Supreme Realm.
Right now, the Demon Lord was exactly in this state, even having fallen into a deep sleep, with their life in danger!
Otherwise, the Demon Realm would not have fallen into such chaos.
And the reason Guan Zhiwen had sought out Liu Mengli at this time was because of the relationship between Liu Mengli and the Demon Lord!
As long as Liu Mengli could appear within the Demon Realm, then those various factions within the Demon Realm waiting for an opportunity would inevitably show some restraint.
"Princess, we had no other choice, I hope you can forgive us!" Speaking to the end, Guan Zhiwen bowed deeply to Liu Mengli once more.
Being able to take Liu Mengli away so easily meant that Guan Zhiwen and the others had already been tracking Liu Mengli's whereabouts for a long time; it was just that they hadn't made a move until now.
It wasn't until this period, when the Demon Lord fell into a coma and the Demon Realm fell into chaos, that they urgently needed someone with status to stabilize the situation, forcing Guan Zhiwen and the others to take Liu Mengli away.
"I understand your actions; this truly cannot be blamed on you," having understood the cause and effect of the matter, Liu Mengli was not as hostile toward Guan Zhiwen and the others as she had been at the beginning.
If it were her in Guan Zhiwen's position, she would likely have made the same choice.
"I can go back to the Demon Realm with you, but you must immediately have your people return; you cannot lay a hand on Yanran!" However, understanding was one thing, but the actions of Guan Zhiwen and the others still left Liu Mengli dissatisfied, especially since they intended to lay a hand on her daughter, Liu Yanran.
"This!" Guan Zhiwen was in a difficult position for a moment: "Princess, if it is only you alone, I am afraid you may not necessarily be able to awaken the Demon Lord!"
Even though Liu Mengli was the Princess of the Demon Realm, possessing status and standing second only to the Demon Lord, that was merely status and standing.
In the Magic Card civilization, strength was what mattered most! Especially the Demon Realm, one of the three great empires, which revered martial power even more!
Back when the three great Sovereigns besieged the rebellious Long Huang, the Demon Lord had charged directly to the front, going head-to-head with the rebellious Long Huang!
Guan Zhiwen seeking out Liu Mengli, although wanting to rely on her status as a princess to make those chaotic factions within the Demon Realm show some restraint, was only restraint, not making them stop completely.
After all, no matter how special Liu Mengli's status was, she was currently only in the Sovereign Realm, even lower in strength than herself, an Immortal Realm expert; how could she intimidate those high and mighty Undying Realm experts?
If Liu Mengli had not left the Demon Realm back then, that might not have been a problem, and with Liu Mengli's original talent, even if she hadn't successfully broken into the Undying Realm, she would inevitably have reached the high-tier Immortal Realm, enough to make those Undying Realm experts wary.
