Chapter 402: Chapter 396: Too Arrogant

Xue Ying’s almond eyes widened, and she said sternly, "Tian Lang, you are not allowed to speak ill of Brother Wuheng."

Tian Lang stammered, "Sister-in-law, he... he... truly doesn’t look like a good person..."

Xue Ying suddenly became serious.

"Tian Lang, what do you know? Over these two years, if it hadn’t been for Brother Wuheng, my child and I would no longer be in this world..."

When Xue Ying tearfully recounted her experiences over the past two years on Purple Jade Star, Tian Lang’s heart felt like it had been overturned.

"Sister-in-law, Second Brother hasn’t been by your side for these two years, causing you to suffer."

Xue Ying wiped her tears, composed herself, and said, "Let’s not talk about the past. With Brother Wuheng here, my child and I have been living a life free from want."

Tian Lang walked up to Ye Wuheng, cupped his hands, and said, "Brother Wuheng, I must apologize for any offense just now. Please forgive me."

Ye Wuheng smiled and said, "Brother Tian Lang, if it were me, I’d have done the same. Please, don’t blame yourself..."

Upon Ye Wuheng’s repeated invitation, Tian Lang and Yi Mu led a hundred Immortal Beasts towards the courtyard by the small river.

On the way, when Tian Lang learned from Ye Wuheng that they were in the Demon World, his brows furrowed, and his expression grew worried.

"Brother Wuheng, are you sure this is the Demon World?"

Ye Wuheng replied, "As far as I know, among the Heaven and Earth Seven Realms, the Immortal World is a place of elegance and purity, filled with the unique Immortal Essence Qi, allowing no dark matter. However, in this world, the air is filled with Demon Essence Qi, which only the Demon World possesses. That’s why I concluded this is indeed the Demon World."

At this, Yi Mu suddenly realized and said, "No wonder this world has felt so strange to me; it seems we don’t belong to the Immortal Domain."

"Alas..."

Tian Lang sighed, "The boss wanted us to ascend to the Immortal World and meet him on Xuanming Star. Now that we’re in the Demon World, what are we supposed to do?"

At this moment, a fierce killing intent flashed in Yi Mu’s eyes, then dissipated instantly.

"Alas."

Yi Mu let out a sigh and thought, "So what if this is the Demon World? With my current strength, I can’t seek revenge on the Demon Clan..."

Then, with resignation, Yi Mu said, "Since this is the Demon World, there must be a rift leading to the Immortal Domain. Once we find the Demon World rift, we can head to the Immortal World."

Ye Wuheng asked in confusion, "Miss Mumu, how do you know there is a rift between the Demon World and the Immortal World?"

"Alas..."

Yi Mu sighed again.

"It all started ten years ago..."

Ten years ago, when Yan Rufeng fought the Demon Clan, Yi Mu had fallen in Rufeng’s arms while trying to save him. By a twist of fate, he was able to reincarnate attached to Niuniu’s body.

Upon hearing of Yi Mu and Yan Rufeng’s experiences, Ye Wuheng’s furrowed brows relaxed.

"Ha!"

Ye Wuheng let out a cold laugh.

"No wonder I lost so miserably. It turns out my lord Yan Rufeng is the reincarnation of the Immortal Venerable."

Tian Lang asked in confusion, "Brother Wuheng, what do you mean by that?"

Ye Wuheng smiled and said, "Tian Lang, you once served under my lord Yan Rufeng, so you must have heard of the Heavenly Demon."

Tian Lang gasped and exclaimed, "Ye Wuheng, are you that infamous Heavenly Demon?"

Ye Wuheng nodded.

"Oh my god!"

Tian Lang exclaimed, "Five years ago, when we left Earth, the boss said he had already destroyed you. How did you come to serve under him?"

Ye Wuheng gave a slight smile and explained slowly, "Tian Lang, five years ago, during that great battle, my lord was unable to destroy me completely. A few days later, not only did he bring me off Earth, but he also promised me a great fortune and bestowed upon me the name Ye Wuheng."

Upon hearing this, Xue Ying asked, "Brother Wuheng, I didn’t expect you to be my lord’s servant, the Heavenly Demon. No wonder two years ago, after the wormhole mother ship disintegrated, you said you came here following me."

Ye Wuheng smiled and said, "Sister Xue Ying, if it weren’t for an old man with white hair asking me to protect you then, I wouldn’t have known you were also my lord Yan Rufeng’s servant."

"An old man with white hair?"

Sitting on Black Tiger’s back, Yi Mu murmured, "When the wormhole mother ship disintegrated, I vaguely saw an old man with white hair. When I woke up, he claimed to be my master..."

Then Yi Mu quickly asked, "Brother Wuheng, did the old man with white hair tell you who he was?"

Ye Wuheng shook his head,

Yi Mu continued, "Did you get a good look at his face?"

Ye Wuheng said, "I was half-conscious at the time; I only saw the old man with white hair from behind. After he gave his instructions, he disappeared without a trace."

"Something’s not right!"

Yi Mu furrowed his brow and pondered deeply, "I was reincarnated from Earth; how could I have a master on Cangmang Star? Besides, since meeting Brother Rufeng, I haven’t seen him. Who exactly was that master of mine from two years ago..."

At this moment, Tian Lang said aloud, "Since we’re in the Demon World, our situation is extremely dangerous. Right now, we need to find the rift between the Demon World and the Immortal World as soon as possible, leave the Demon World, and head to Xuanming Star in the Immortal World."

Yi Mu, deep in thought, said, "The Demon World is fraught with danger, filled with powerful and ferocious members of the Demon Clan. With our current cultivation, it’s not easy for us to move around."

Xue Ying furrowed her brow.

"Mumu, we are in the land of demons, constantly facing life-threatening dangers. I think Tian Lang’s suggestion is good; we should take the initiative to find the Demon World rift and leave for Xuanming Star to reunite with our master."

"But..."

Tian Lang smiled and said, "Mumu, don’t worry. Among us, only you are from the Human Clan; seeking the Demon World rift is not something you need to concern yourself with."

Ye Wuheng said calmly, "Mumu has a point; I support her view."

"Ha!"

Tian Lang chuckled.

"Brother Wuheng, this is the Demon World, and you are the Heavenly Demon; are you afraid of moving around here?"

"Afraid?"

Ye Wuheng said coldly, "In my dictionary, there is no such word as ’afraid’."

Xue Ying asked, "Brother Wuheng, what do you mean then?"

Ye Wuheng stopped walking, looked into the distance, and said with increased volume, "Ten years ago, the Demon Clan forced my lord to self-destruct and reincarnate. Now that I, Ye Wuheng, know about this, how can I leave the Demon World so easily?"

Tian Lang chuckled, "Brother Wuheng, what are you planning to do?"

"Unite Purple Jade, annihilate the Demon Clan, and avenge our lord."

"What?" Tian Lang, Yi Mu, and Xue Ying exclaimed in unison.

"Ha ha!"

Tian Lang said disdainfully, "Ye Wuheng, isn’t that a bit too arrogant? Ten years ago, the Demon Clan forced the boss to self-destruct; how can you hope to unite the Demon Clan?"

"Why?"

Ye Wuheng said each word emphatically, "Because I, Ye Wuheng, was once the Heavenly Demon Venerable Sage, who dominated the Seven Realms!"

In an instant, Ye Wuheng transformed into a mass of black gas and floated into the air.

Seeing this, Xue Ying shouted, "Brother Wuheng, what are you planning to do?"
