"Please enlighten me, Demon Sovereign..."
Luo Tianya asked, puzzled.
He thought for a long time, but truly had no memory of offending the Demon Sovereign.
"I ask you, did you send people to pursue Ruying?"
Ning YeChen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked coldly.
Luo Tianya frowned, his expression becoming more and more confused.
"Is the Demon Sovereign joking?"
"Ruying is my daughter, why would I send people to kill her?"
Huh?
He didn't order it?
Ning YeChen also felt puzzled upon hearing this, carefully scrutinizing Luo Tianya.
Seeing his calm aura, the look of bewilderment in his eyes, and the lack of any unusual expression, he didn't seem to be lying.
Could it be that the Luo God Palace wasn't the one pursuing Luo Ruying?
At this moment, Luo Tianya also spoke to explain:
"Although I don't know why the Demon Sovereign wants to find my daughter, she was taken away by a certain force over a hundred years ago."
"I haven't seen her since she was taken away."
"She has also never returned to the Luo God Palace."
"What is the name of the force that took her?"
Ning YeChen questioned in a low voice.
Since it wasn't the Luo God Palace, it must be the force that took her!
Luo Tianya shook his head.
"I also don't know who they are."
"I only know that their power is extremely strong, far beyond what my Luo God Palace can contend with."
"Even the Ice Mist Sacred Realm of the Northern Dark Immortal Realm wouldn't dare to offend them easily!"
"They said my daughter was extremely talented, with the potential to become an Empress in the future. After offering the Luo God Palace many benefits, they took her away."
The Ice Mist Sacred Realm was one of the top sects in the nine Immortal Realms, on par with the Heavenly Dao Imperial Palace. If even the Ice Mist Sacred Realm didn't dare to offend them easily, then it could only be those ancient, reclusive clans that had existed in the Immortal Realm for thousands of years!
Those old geezers generally hid somewhere within the Immortal Realm. Unless a calamity that could destroy the realm occurred, they usually wouldn't show themselves, let alone interfere in anything.
Yet they issued a kill order against Luo Ruying...
The Immortal Realm was vast, said to contain the rivers and seas of the world, the sun, moon, and stars. It was a hundred times larger than the Human Realm. Finding those ancient clans would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Even if they were found, it didn't guarantee they were the clan that issued the order to kill Luo Ruying.
Ning YeChen's face showed a very displeased and impatient expression.
His wife's situation was even more complex than he had imagined…
However, the fact that his wife had caught the eye of those old fellows also demonstrated her extraordinary talent.
Otherwise, she would never have been noticed by those ancient, reclusive clans.
Seeing Ning YeChen's displeased expression, Luo Tianya mustered his courage and asked anxiously:
"I wonder if Demon Sovereign has seen my daughter?"
"How is she doing…?"
Through his conversation with Ning YeChen, he felt that the Demon Sovereign had indeed come to question him, but it seemed more like he was here to vent his anger for Luo Ruying!
Moreover, it seemed that the Demon Sovereign and his little daughter should know each other…!
Sounds like his daughter is still being chased!
As a father, for the sake of the family's future, he could only reluctantly give his daughter away over a hundred years ago, but this also became his most regrettable deed.
Now he has no idea whether his daughter is alive or dead.
Hearing Luo Tianya's inquiry, Ning YeChen came back to his senses, quickly retracted his legs and sat up straight.
The cold and arrogant expression on his face also changed, replaced by a face full of amiable and friendly smiles.
There was even a hint of trying to please in the smile…
When he first came, he didn't know the situation and was prepared to take down the Luo God Palace, so he displayed the imposing attitude he had as the Demon Sovereign before.
Now that he knew it was a misunderstanding, he quickly restrained himself.
After all, the other party was his wife's father, his father-in-law!
He had his legs crossed, propping up his face, it was simply too impolite!
He had to leave a good impression...! At this moment, Ning YeChen was extremely grateful that he hadn't rashly destroyed the entire Luo God Palace just now...
If he had really destroyed it, then it would have been a major disaster!
"Ahem, Father-in-law... no, Palace Master of Luo God Palace... Your daughter is doing very well, you don't have to worry."
Ning YeChen coughed lightly and said politely with a smile.
This attitude was a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn compared to before.
Luo Tianya looked bewildered and doubtful, his heart filled with extreme vigilance.
This Demon Sovereign's attitude changed so suddenly...?
It startled him...
"Demon Sovereign..."
"Oh, Palace Master of Luo God Palace, there's no need to call me Demon Sovereign, it sounds so distant!"
"My name is Ning YeChen. You can just call me YeChen, Palace Master of Luo God Palace~"
As soon as Luo Tianya opened his mouth, Ning YeChen interrupted, a friendly smile on his face.
This made Luo Tianya feel even more uneasy...
The Demon Sovereign actually wanted him to call him by his name...?
The entire Immortal Realm has never seen a situation like this, right?!
How many people dare to call the Demon Sovereign by his given name?!
"Ye, YeChen...?"
Luo Tianya cautiously spoke, calling out.
"Mm! Palace Master of Luo God Palace, please speak~"
Ning YeChen smiled, completely satisfied.
See, isn't the relationship between this son-in-law and father-in-law a step closer now!
It's just that he's not ready to tell him about his relationship with Luo Ruying...
At the very least, they would have to wait until Luo Ruying accepted his identity before finding a suitable time to announce it...
Luo Tianya was quite frightened by Ning YeChen's sudden, flattering attitude, but he was even more concerned about his daughter Luo Ruying's situation at the moment.
So he could only steel himself and ask:
"You should have seen my daughter, right?"
"I don't know how my daughter is doing now, or where she is?"
"She's doing really well right now, you don't need to worry."
"As for where she is, I won't tell you for the time being."
Ning YeChen thought for a moment and did not intend to tell Luo Tianya anything about Luo Ruying.
To avoid worrying him, he hadn't even mentioned that Luo Ruying had her bones dug out and her heart taken.
On the one hand, he was afraid that Luo Tianya would worry even more if he knew Luo Ruying was with him. Now wasn't the time to tell him.
On the other hand, telling him might bring the Luo God Palace to the brink of destruction!
The mysterious reclusive clan behind the abduction of Luo Ruying could obliterate the Luo God Palace without even batting an eye.
Luo Ruying was also well aware of this, so even when she escaped, she had no intention of returning to the Luo God Palace, not even to say hello.
She was afraid that the mysterious clan's power would find out and bring disaster to her family.
That's why she resolutely chose to escape to the Human Realm.
Luo Tianya still wanted to press for more information, but Ning YeChen didn't give him the chance. He stood up and vanished from sight like a wisp of smoke.
Since he already knew the Luo God Palace hadn't ordered the pursuit, there was no point in him staying here any longer.
Finding the true culprit behind this was going to be difficult. He could only wait for the other party to make another move.
They had dug out his wife's immortal bones and heart, and he wouldn't let this matter rest!
Luo Tianya watched Ning YeChen leave, but instead of feeling relieved, his expression became incredibly serious.
How did Ruying know the Demon Sovereign...?
And the Demon Sovereign even came all the way to the Immortal Realm to inquire about her?
What exactly happened to her, and why was she being pursued?!
Luo Tianya's intuition told him that something must have happened to his daughter, Luo Ruying!
No!
He can't just sit here and wait for death!
Luo Tianya's expression was solemn as he shouted towards the outside:
"Someone!"
