Chapter 1435: Chapter 533: The True Purpose_2
From this point onwards, 孙大人 officially became one of the most powerful beings in the Seven Realms and Four Worlds under the present rules of Heaven and Earth. Regardless of his cultivation level, he managed to rank at the forefront, even without counting those ancient existences.
...
The capital of the Nine Witch Demon Court was known as "Myriad Demon Domain."
Before the Heavenly Track Reversal, Myriad Demon Domain had an extremely complex spatial structure. All sorts of powerful individuals from the Demon Clan would create their own exclusive spaces within the city, either for themselves or their entire families. These spaces were called "Ancestral Ruins." But following the Heavenly Track Reversal, these Demon Clan-created spaces could no longer be maintained. The extravagance-loving demon nobility, however, was unprepared to live on land with regular demons and human slaves.
The current Myriad Demon Domain had two layers: the bottom layer, consisting of a vast land area, was utterly chaotic without any city planning. About three million lower-class demons and human slaves inhabited this layer.
The upper layer was built upon the foundations of four towering mountains and required a tremendous amount of funds and manpower to construct a platform four hundred zhang off the ground. The top ten Golden Blood and nine Purple Blood nobles, as well as other aristocrats, resided on this platform.
Several thousand years ago, the Demon Clan had already exhausted its influence to expand the range of the platform. Every inch of this upper level was thus worth its weight in gold. All demons considered reaching the upper level as their life’s goal. Every year, some families moved from the lower level to the upper, while others were squeezed out.
Surrounding the entire Myriad Demon Domain were six water channels and dozens of major roads that transported various living resources and city waste endlessly in and out of the city.
One day, a seemingly ordinary small boat was mixed among many large boats, waiting to enter the Myriad Demon Domain at a sluice gate.
Choosing to travel by boat was Princess Amelia’s strong suggestion, as she had never been on one before and wanted a novel experience.
The two Seventh Realm characters had their methods; their demonic energy was condensed and did not dissipate.孙大人 and the National Master stepped out of the cabin and stood on the bow to gaze at the massive city dozens of miles away. The lower level was devoid of walls and boundaries, with young demons able to build and expand their homes as long as they paid their taxes.
But the upper level was incredibly strict, with an air of exclusion and formations surrounding the vicinity.
孙大人 marveled in his heart, noticing that the Myriad Demon Domain was more magnificent than Wood Capital by a factor of ten! Indeed, the Demon Clan’s innate talents surpassed the Human Race. If such an aerial city were to be built within the human domain before the Origin Resurgence, even with the involvement of a talented Grandmaster, it would likely exhaust the national treasury, lead to unrest, and spell the end of a dynasty!
However, the National Master’s eyes flickered as he glanced at the little girl beside him: "Do you still want to follow us?"
Despite the whole journey, the National Master had been "driving away" Princess Amelia while putting forth plausible arguments. He reasoned that their collaboration with 孙大人 had already ended, and if there was nothing else, they should bid each other farewell. If there were other matters, Princess Amelia could make arrangements with 孙大人 and then part ways, as 孙大人 was now heading to the Myriad Demon Domain with the National Master.
The task they were about to undertake was extremely detrimental to the Demon Clan. As a member of the Demon Clan and a Purple Blood noble, Princess Amelia should either try to stop them or pretend she did not know anything and walk away. With her unclear intentions, the National Master found it hard not to suspect her of harboring ulterior motives.
But Princess Amelia was resolute in not leaving.
In fact, she could hardly explain why she felt compelled to oppose the National Master. All she knew was that the more he resisted, the more she insisted on following! Moreover, when the National Master mentioned that their task would be harmful to the Demon Clan, Princess Amelia did not react, feeling it was none of her business. If only he had said that it would be harmful to the Demon Clan Royal Family—she would have gladly leaped forward with both hands raised: "Count me in!"
Of course, 孙大人 had also tried persuading the little princess, but Princess Amelia felt that she could "help"—regarding whether she would truly lend a hand once she had followed them, that all depended on her mood.
After waiting in line for over a shichen, it was finally their turn. Princess Amelia had heard rumors that many corrupt officials were stationed at this kind of checkpoint, and she was eager to cause trouble with her eyes gleaming. The boat’s crew, however, dutifully paid the required fees, leaving Princess Amelia with no outlet to unleash her mischief.
Upon entering the city, 孙大人 finally asked the National Master, "What is this matter that required the National Master to travel thousands of miles in person?"
The true purpose of the National Master’s visit was unquestionably the Myriad Demon Domain. However, as the National Master had refrained from discussing it, 孙大人 had not enquired further.
With a gesture, the National Master pushed the eavesdropping Princess Amelia back before addressing 孙大人, "Follow me."
As the pair left her behind, the young princess felt miffed and reluctantly stayed put.
The National Master led 孙大人 out of the inn, while Princess Amelia followed sneakily behind. However, she quickly lost track of them as they, together, employed techniques to shake off her tail.
The National Master brought 孙大人 to a desolate wildland, far removed from the city. Approximately seventy li away from the outskirts of the Myriad Demon Domain lay a remote mountain valley. Another thirty li journey led to a desolate wasteland, teeming with wild beasts and scattered with gnawed-white bones on the ground.
At the foot of a mountain, a man-made gate had been carved out. At this moment, the iron-casted door of the entrance was tightly shut, with twelve powerful Demon Arrays encircling it, forming a flashing aura. Though no guards were visible, it was clear that security was tight.
