Inside the magnificent Demon God Hall in the Demon Realm.
Twelve Demon Gods sat quietly around a large, luxurious round table, each with a disappointed expression.
"Still no news of the Demon Sovereign."
"I've sent people to infiltrate the Celestial Realm, but there's no news of the Demon Sovereign there either."
"Since the Demon Sovereign appeared in the Celestial Realm once, there hasn't been any news."
"Sigh... Where did the Demon Sovereign go...!"
The Demon Gods discussed the results of their recent search.
The result was still the same: nothing.
It was truly difficult to find the Demon Sovereign when he wanted to hide.
They had been searching for the Demon Sovereign for over a hundred years!
They finally received news of the Demon Sovereign once, but still couldn't find any further trace.
The Demon Gods couldn't help but feel dispirited and dejected.
One of them, a burly man with a physique like a war chariot, scars on his face, and a wild aura, spoke:
"I heard the Demon Sovereign went to the Heavenly Dao Imperial Palace twice!"
"How about I just charge into the Celestial Realm and capture that old thing, Heavenly Dao, and force him to talk?"
"That would just start another war between the Celestial and Demon Realms, you idiot!"
"Do you really think all those old farts in the Celestial Realm are dead?"
A woman with dazzling golden hair, constantly twirling a golden halo on her fingers, rolled her eyes at the burly man and spoke without mincing words.
"If they want to fight, let them! What are we afraid of?"
"Could it be that Chi Huan, known as the Headless Queen, is scared?"
The burly man retorted sarcastically.
"Scared? Are you kidding me?"
"When you were still wearing split-crotch pants, my name was already famous throughout the Celestial Realm!"
In the Demon Realm, there's nothing more intolerable than being mocked for weakness and cowardice. It's a blatant insult, a defilement of their honor!
Upon hearing Kuang Qiu's mockery, Chi Huan's golden hair bristled, and she stood up, ready to fight.
Kuang Qiu, not to be outdone, slammed his hand on the table, shattering the entire round table. He stood up, fuming.
The two glared at each other, swords drawn and ready.
The other Demon Gods, however, were indifferent, unconcerned.
This kind of thing happened often; they were already accustomed to it…
Several Demon Hall guards skillfully brought a new table and placed it in the center.
"Enough!"
"Now that the Demon Sovereign isn't here, you two are getting out of control!"
"How many times do I have to say it? Don't break the tables!"
A cold, gloomy voice echoed from the darkness of the hall. Kuang Qiu and Chi Huan looked fearful and obediently returned to their seats.
A woman with a graceful figure, beautiful face, and a cold, ethereal expression slowly walked out of the darkness with a dignified and elegant gait.
"Left Protector...!"
Seeing the woman arrive, everyone respectfully greeted her.
The woman was Yue Qingyou, the Left Protector, one of the two great protectors of the Demon Realm.
Her status in the Demon Realm was second only to the Demon Sovereign. She was both the Demon Sovereign's protector and the overall leader of the Demon Realm.
Many matters in the Demon Realm were handled by her personally.
During the Demon Sovereign's absence from the Demon Realm, she was the one who kept the entire Demon Realm running.
Both her strength and status were above those of the thirteen Demon Generals!
Yue Qingyou's cold, beautiful eyes swept across the crowd, but she found a seat empty. She frowned slightly and asked:
"Where did Ye Tianshen go? Why isn't he at the Demon God Conference!"
"I heard he went to the Human Realm to look for clues about the Demon Sovereign."
Another woman, sitting upright with a stern expression, spoke.
The woman had fair skin, a cold and emotionless face, and her eyes showed no emotional fluctuations. She held a long knife, more than two meters long, across her shoulders.
"Go bring him back."
"How can he be absent from the Demon Gods' meeting?"
Upon hearing that Ye Tianshen was looking for the Demon Sovereign's whereabouts, Yue Qingyou's brow relaxed slightly as she gave the order.
"No need, I'm already back."
"Greetings, Left Protector."
At this moment, Ye Tianshen slowly emerged from the darkness on the other side, respectfully greeting Yue Qingyou.
"Ye Tianshen, you should know the importance of the Demon Gods' meeting, right?"
Yue Qingyou looked at Ye Tianshen, her tone slightly reproachful as she questioned him.
Then, she noticed the injury on his chest, and her brow furrowed.
"You're injured?!"
The others also looked surprised, their faces filled with disbelief.
They knew that Ye Tianshen was the commander of the first Demon God legion, and his strength was among the best in the Demon Realm! They hadn't seen him injured in ages!
Ye Tianshen glanced at the wound on his chest and said nonchalantly:
"Just a trivial injury."
"This is my punishment to myself."
"Punishment…?"
Yue Qingyou asked, puzzled.
Who in the Demon Realm could punish Ye Tianshen?
Ye Tianshen didn't answer. Instead, he placed his hand on his chest and reported to Yue Qingyou in a solemn voice:
"Reporting to Left Protector, I have seen the Demon Sovereign!"
Huh?!
In an instant, everyone present focused their eyes on Ye Tianshen. Everyone stood up excitedly and questioned:
"What?! You saw the Demon Sovereign?!"
"Speak quickly! Where is the Demon Sovereign now?"
"How is the Demon Sovereign doing now?"
"Has the Demon Sovereign returned?!"
"Where did you meet the Demon Sovereign?!"
With everyone bombarding him with questions, Ye Tianshen didn't even have a chance to speak.
"Quiet down!!"
Fortunately, Yue Qingyou stepped forward and silenced the crowd.
In the current Demon Realm, only Yue Qingyou could keep the thirteen Demon Gods in check.
Yue Qingyou instantly appeared in front of Ye Tianshen, staring at him intently as she urgently asked:
"You found the Demon Sovereign?!"
"Yes!"
"Where is the Demon Sovereign?"
"The Demon Sovereign is currently hiding in the Human Realm."
"In the Human Realm…"
Yue Qingyou murmured softly.
So the Demon Sovereign has been hiding in the Human Realm all along…
The others also looked at each other, not understanding why their Demon Sovereign had gone to the Human Realm.
"What about the Demon Sovereign? Didn't he come back with you?"
Yue Qingyou looked behind Ye Tianshen, her brows furrowed as she asked, displeased.
This was also the question everyone was most concerned about.
"The Demon Sovereign, he didn't return with this subordinate…"
Ye Tianshen replied helplessly.
"Then you should have tied the Demon Sovereign up and brought him back, even if you had to!"
Yue Qingyou said angrily, blaming him.
They had finally found the Demon Sovereign's whereabouts. If they let him run off again, who knew when they would find him!
"This subordinate wouldn't dare to disobey the Demon Sovereign…"
Ye Tianshen said helplessly again.
In the entire Demon Realm, besides Yue Qingyou, there was simply no other person who dared to speak to the Demon Sovereign like this…
Not to mention whether he dared to disobey, he simply wasn't the Demon Sovereign's match!
Yue Qingyou also knew this very well. In her heart, she didn't really blame Ye Tianshen. She was just angry that they might miss this opportunity, not knowing when they could welcome the Demon Sovereign back.
"Quickly tell me where the Demon Sovereign is!"
"I'll go find the Demon Sovereign myself!"
Yue Qingyou asked Ye Tianshen.
"Left Protector, the Demon Sovereign said not to disturb his current life…"
Ye Tianshen hesitated for a moment before replying.
"Why?!"
"Could it be that the Demon Sovereign really doesn't intend to return to the Demon Realm anymore…"
Yue Qingyou's face was filled with disappointment, and she clenched her fists unwillingly.
Since the Demon Sovereign had said as much, if she went looking for him again, she would be going against the Demon Sovereign's wishes…
The other Demon Gods also lowered their heads in dejection.
However, Ye Tianshen instead revealed a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, and continued to say:
"The Demon Sovereign hasn't abandoned us."
"It's just that the Demon Sovereign has something more important to attend to now."
"More important?"
"What could be more important than the entire Demon Realm?"
The crowd asked, looking puzzled.
Ye Tianshen closed his eyes slightly, a faint smile gracing his stern face, and then announced a bombshell:
"The Demon Sovereign is getting married!"
