Beiting Huang was acutely aware of Lan Yinshui’s subtle movements. Having ascended to the rank of a peak Great Lord, his perception had merged with the heavens and earth, enabling him to clearly detect every stir of wind, every twitch of grass, and every shift of energy.
Fortunately, Ying Xian intervened in time to stop her, otherwise, had Beiting Huang taken action, it was uncertain whether Lan Yinshui could have survived his hands.
Lan Yinshui was quite dissatisfied, but given the alliance formed by the Blue Phoenix Family and the Ying Long Family, she could not act alone and decided to bide her time for the moment.
Beiting Huang’s gaze was sharp like a knife as it grazed across her face, and he said coldly, “Before you entered, you all saw that I was detained by the Demon God. He made a deal with me—I protect the Dark Demon Clan, and he grants me a treasure. Now, the treasure is indeed in my possession. I have never gone back on my word; the Dark Demon Clan is under my protection!”
Upon hearing this, Blue Bird couldn’t help but ridicule inwardly—if his word was to be taken seriously, then why hadn’t he left by now? Clearly, Beiting Huang was just a woman, a petty person.
Beiting Huang, unaware of Blue Bird’s disdain, pointed to Zhuu Shu and said to Ying Xian and Lan Yinshui, “If you disagree, you’re welcome to challenge me directly!”
The demon god had not made an agreement with Beiting Huang, but rather with Yan Ye. However, Yan Ye’s affairs were also her own. Currently, within the Dark Demon World, only one of the Three Realms remained, and ultimately Yan Ye had to honor her promise to unite the Dark Demon World with the Rubis Continent. She did not wish to see the Dark Demon World suffer devastation and be riddled with a thousand wounds.
Zhuu Shu was still her man. She was about to leave the Dark Demon World, and she did not want Zhuu Shu to face uncertainty about his survival after her departure.
Indeed, everyone had seen Beiting Huang being detained by the demon god, even though that was only a wisp of the demon god’s divine sense. The demon god had detained no one else but Beiting Huang alone. The people did not believe that Beiting Huang had the ability to escape from the hands of the demon god, meaning that they had no choice but to believe Beiting Huang’s words—that the demon god was still concerned about the Dark Demon Clan.
“Lord Huang Jiu!” Ying Xian had to ask, “Where has the Demon God gone now?”
He had to clarify this—if the Demon God was still present, then the strategy of their family to replace and take over the Dark Demon Domain would have to change. Who would have guessed that within the Crown Tomb, there was still a wisp of the demon god’s divine sense? After all, this was the Creation God!
Beiting Huang’s stare at Ying Xian was both mocking and smiling, which made Ying Xian retreat in defeat even without Beiting Huang saying a word. He chuckled awkwardly, “I was just asking casually!”
Indeed, he should not have inquired—how could anyone clarify the affairs of the demon god? Who would dare to?
Even if Beiting Huang knew that the demon god had already reincarnated through that wisp of divine sense, he would not tell Ying Xian. After all, the residual power of the demon god’s divine sense, like the lingering might of a tiger, could still deter other forces in the Dark Demon World and ensure the safety of the Dark Demon Domain.
There was no point in staying here any longer; it was better to use the remaining time to search for more treasures.
With matters standing thus, Ying Xian bid his respects to Beiting Huang and, dragging the reluctant Lan Yinshui, took his leave.
“Lord Huang Jiu!” Zhuu Shu came up joyfully, presenting a Ten Thousand Years Jade Ganoderma respectfully to Beiting Huang, “My father helped me pick this—I intended to give it to Lord Huang Jiu. Just now, it was almost snatched away by the Ying Long and Blue Phoenix Families!”
Zhuu Yun was well aware that the two families’ attempts to seize the Jade Ganoderma was one thing, but what they feared more was taking advantage of his injury to wipe out the Dark Demon Domain in this space. Should that happen, the Dark Demon World would fall into the hands of the Ying Long and Blue Phoenix Families.
Little did he expect that Lord Beiting Huang would not only save them but also take the Dark Demon Domain under his wing.
