Chapter 361: Your Majesty, I Wish to Report You (Second Update, Seeking Monthly Votes)

Since ascending to the throne, the current Demon Emperor has lived in seclusion within the Demon Imperial Palace and has rarely made an appearance.

Cang Lan has grown up only seeing the Demon Emperor from afar once.

To her, the Demon Emperor is such an unreachable existence, a great Majesty who requires the worship of ten thousand demons.

And now, this guy just moved his mouth, and he made His Majesty descend?

This... is truly too disrespectful.

But Ren Yidao's disrespectful actions toward the Demon Emperor were far from over.

The degree of his contempt for the Demon Emperor was far beyond what Cang Lan could imagine!

After summoning the Demon Emperor, Ren Yidao did not perform any respectful gestures, but instead smiled flippantly:

"Yo, you're here?"

This first sentence nearly caused Cang Lan to suffer a Broken Defense, and the next one almost choked her to death!

"You still know to come see me."

Huang Huang:?

Cang Lan:???

There has never been a moment that made Cang Lan so desperately want to flee from a place.

Someone save me? Let me leave here.

Cang Lan is terrified; if she continues to watch these things that shatter her worldview, she fears her faith will collapse.

She is on the verge of a breakdown, while Huang Huang, who was suddenly called over, is full of question marks.

What are you doing, kid?

She narrowed her eyes slightly, staring at Ren Yidao with an unkind expression, waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.

And when her brows furrowed, the atmosphere of the entire space changed instantly, the temperature soaring as if one were inside a furnace.

But Ren Yidao was completely unafraid of this, looking back calmly and shrugging:

"Save it, you can't glare me to death, and I wasn't scared..."

Boom!

Before he could finish, the giant coral ornament beside him burst into flames.

The flames took the shape of a Phoenix, instantly consuming it entirely.

"..."

Watching the coral ornament turn from a decoration into a pile of black ash in just a few breaths, Ren Yidao was silent for two seconds.

Then, he raised his head and said earnestly to Huang Huang:

"Your Majesty, you are damaging public property, I am going to..."

"Report you to the authorities!"

Report to the authorities?

Report me?

Huang Huang was directly amused by these words, and the displeasure from being forcibly summoned also lightened a little.

The Void Star image sat back, settling directly onto a Flame Throne that appeared out of thin air; she crossed her long legs and looked down at Ren Yidao from her high position.

She did not speak, but the meaning expressed was already very clear.

Speak.

I would like to see how you can quibble.

Seeing that her anger had dissipated, Ren Yidao chuckled twice, pulled up a chair to sit, also crossed his legs, and rested his folded hands on his lap.

Although the Huang Huang image was taller than Ren Yidao, they were both in the same posture... only Cang Lan was kneeling to the side in conflict.

"Alright, don't put on that innocent look." Ren Yidao shrugged with a smile: "I was also forced to do this."

"Since you won't come to see me, and you won't let me go see you, if I didn't do this, how else could I see you?"

"Isn't that right?"

Huang Huang was silent, not answering.

But this reaction of hers was actually equivalent to tacitly admitting that Ren Yidao's statement was correct.

"I don't know what kind of situation you have on your end that makes it inconvenient for me to appear, and I'm not curious."

He doesn't care at all about what guests are in the Demon Imperial Palace or what has happened.

"But there is one thing I must ask for your opinion on before I do it."

Ren Yidao stared tightly at Huang Huang's image and spoke slowly: "Regarding this Demon Emperor City, what exactly are your plans?"

"Do you have special requirements? To what extent? Or should I just do as I please?"

Because Cang Lan was there, Ren Yidao chose not to spell it out, but he believed the other party would definitely understand his meaning.

Regarding the ten thousand races of this Demon Emperor City, how do you really see them?

And to what extent should I, this troublemaker, go?

Sure enough, Huang Huang's expression became strange, somewhat disdainful, yet also playful, and she raised an eyebrow:

"You think you can do it?"

Ren Yidao also started to laugh, revealing his stark white teeth.

"Don't worry about whether I can do it or not, just tell me the bottom lines that cannot be touched first."

Seeing him like this, Huang Huang put away her disdain and began to seriously size up this "little brother" who had invited himself over.

He is very confident, even somewhat arrogant.

Although she hadn't summoned him to the palace in the last half-month, she was very clear about Ren Yidao's actions in the city.

I have to say, he is truly excellent.

He is not at all like a crown prince who has just ascended to the throne; rather, he is like an old hand who has spent many years mingling in the world of conspiracies.

Adept at social maneuvering and playing the political game, he is very skilled at communicating with others and feels no fear toward schemes and plots.

If he truly had the heart to be this crown prince, Huang Huang might genuinely have groomed him as her successor.

But clearly, there are some demons that cannot be contained.

His heart has never been in this Demon Emperor City, nor even in this position of Demon Emperor.

Everything that countless members of the Demon Race dream of, Ren Yidao treats with disdain.

However, having only these Void Star things is not enough.

In the Demon Race, strength is what matters most.

Although his strength at the Transformation Realm is not considered weak, it is not at all outstanding in this Demon Emperor City.

So the question arises: where does his confidence come from?

Huang Huang stares into Ren Yidao's eyes, attempting to discern some clues from them.

Did that old thing, the State Preceptor, promise something? Or did that Evil Dao, He Shou, say something?

Is it they who gave you this confidence?

But after staring at each other for a long time, Huang Huang sees absolutely nothing.

The youth's eyes appear as clear as a lake, but in reality, they are murkier than an ink pool; the malice that flashes through them from time to time makes her unable to help but want to squint her eyes.

Perhaps his confidence comes from himself.

Thinking this, Huang Huang chuckles and says casually:

【"If you can truly pull it off... Hehe, then I will let you do as you please."】

【"Whatever the result, do as you wish."】

Thump-thump!

Upon hearing this answer, Ren Yidao's heart beats violently twice, and his eyes light up instantly.

"Good."

Ren Yidao suppresses the excitement in his heart and licks his slightly dry lips.

He... is feeling a bit excited.

Huang Huang's indifferent attitude gives him a subtle signal.

This Demon Emperor is perhaps even more indifferent toward the current Demon Race than he had imagined.

A lesson?

No, no, no; what she wants is far more profound than a lesson.

What Huang Huang wants is very likely to break and then establish!

Even though he is excited inside, he still adds a dose of precaution:

"Then don't regret it if something happens later; please don't blame me for not warning you in advance."

A traditional disclaimer from the Huaxia family!

Do not say that you were not warned!

【"Hehe."】

Good, the order has been received.

Ren Yidao prepares to open Huang Huang's eyes, to let this ignorant Demon Emperor witness what a husky off the leash is, and what a wild horse without a bridle is!

"Oh, right, there is one last thing."

Before Huang Huang's phantom is about to dissipate, Ren Yidao suddenly remembers a small matter and asks:

"Have you heard of the 'Ten Thousand Dao Fusion Art'? I encountered a small problem here and wonder if you could help me clear up my confusion."

Huang Huang frowns and asks: 【Where did you get it?】

"The State Preceptor gave it to me, saying that the 'Ten Thousand Demon Incarnation Art' has problems and is not suitable for me to cultivate."

That guy, he acts compliant on the surface, but he is indeed not honest behind the scenes.

【"Stop practicing it; I will exchange it for a cultivation method of the same level for you."】

"Ah, I think that might not be necessary."

Ren Yidao scratches his head, blinks, and says: "I have already succeeded in practicing it, and the first layer is only one step away from completion."

【"Hmm?"】

The first layer is already about to be completed?

One must know that this cultivation method only has three layers in total, corresponding to the three great realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

【"... Wait!"】

Huang Huang suddenly thinks of a very critical point: 【"How long did it take you to succeed?"】

It is not a difficult matter for Ren Yidao to succeed in the first layer, but such speed is somewhat astonishing.

But this is one of the three great Secret Techniques of the Human Race!

The difficulty can be imagined!

As a result, this guy only spent less than half a month to succeed in the first layer; is that even possible?

"How long? Let me think."

Ren Yidao thinks seriously and says somewhat uncertainly: "I practiced it about three days ago, right?"

"I studied it a bit beforehand, and only started practicing after confirming there were no problems, which wasted some time."

"However, although this cultivation method looks quite complex, it is unexpectedly simple to practice."

【"THREE DAYS!!?"】

How much!?

Say that again, how many days did you spend!!?

Ren Yidao looked at Huang Huang's shocked and uncomposed expression, was uncharacteristically modest for a moment, smiled shyly, and said:

"Perhaps, I am just more gifted in this aspect?"

Ehe~

Huang Huang took a deep breath, finally understanding the feeling Cang Lan had earlier when she was almost choked by words.

She had a hard time suppressing the urge to teach him a lesson, and with her brows tightly locked, she asked: 【"... So, what is the problem you encountered?"】

Sensing that Huang Huang was on the verge of exploding, Ren Yidao silently swallowed the cheeky remarks he had prepared and instead said earnestly:

"Ah, I feel that the name of this cultivation technique has some issues."

Ren Yidao turned serious, narrowed his eyes, and said slowly:

"It is clearly called the Myriad Dao Fusion Art, but why do I feel like I have to split off another self..."

"No, that's not right, that phrasing isn't accurate enough."

"That is definitely not another me."

Ren Yidao furrowed his brows, somewhat hesitant, but in the end, he still raised his head firmly and said in a deep voice:

"But rather..."

"A certain part of me!"
