Chapter 1045 Returning to the Demon Sealing Pagoda

After entering the Demon Sealing Clan's Grand Library, Yan Hara led Yuan to her room.

"Take a seat. I'll make some tea for us." Yan Hara said to him.

​ A few minutes later, she returned with a teapot and two teacups.

"So, what have you been up to lately?" She asked him after sitting down and pouring him a cup of tea.

"Thank you." Yuan sipped on the tea a couple of times before speaking, "Nothing much, really. I just ascended to the Third Heaven."

"That fast? If I recall correctly, you'd just ascended to the Second Heaven not long ago." Yan Hara said with slightly widened eyes.

"Yes, and I intend on ascending to the Fourth Heaven as soon as I finish up some business in the Third Heaven, the Demon Sealing Pagoda being one of them." He nodded.

"I see… You're moving up faster than I'd anticipated. Of course I am not complaining. The faster you arrive in the Seventh Heaven, the sooner I will get to see you." Yan Hara smiled.

"But you're already seeing me now?" Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"This place doesn't count!" She quickly said.

Sometime later, after finishing the tea, Yuan asked, "By the way, what's the situation between the Demon Sealing Clan and the Demon Sealing Grotto right now?"

Yan Hara lowered her teacup and then said with a dispirited expression, "Not good. Not good at all. In fact, it's been getting worse."

"Demon sealers from both sides would fight each other whenever they cross paths, and several demon sealers have already died from the drama. At this rate, there will be a full-blown war between the Demon Sealing Clan and the Demon Sealing Grotto."

"How foolish…" Yuan muttered in a cold voice.

"Huh?" Yan Hara looked at him with wide eyes.

"Neither side will win this war, even if one side beats the other. The true winners will be the demons that will soon return to this world."

"W-Wait a minute… What do you mean by that? The demons are already near extinction! There's no way they would return!"

"Is that what you truly believe, or is that what you want to think?" Yuan asked her in a calm voice.

"That's what I truly believe!" She said.

"Then you should change your beliefs, Senior. Although there may not be as many demons today as there were back in the days, they won't be gone anytime soon. In fact, they're most likely recovering their forces out there somewhere."

"H-How do you know all of this…?" Yan Hara asked him in a trembling voice.

Yuan smiled and said, "I will tell you the truth later— when I defeat the Demon Sealing Pagoda."

"Defeat the Demon Sealing Pagoda? You couldn't even get past the fourth floor on your last attempt, and in case you forgot, nobody has passed that floor since the Divine Paragon— not even the current leader of the Demon Sealing Clan." Yan Hara said.

"Actions speak louder than words. If you don't believe me, I will do it right now."

"Sure…"

Yan Hara and Yuan arrived at the Demon Sealing Pagoda several minutes later.

"Whenever you're ready, little founder." Yan Hara said to him.

"I'm ready now."

Sometime later, Yan Hara paid the resources to activate the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

Once the door opened, Yuan calmly walked into the building.

"Young Master, you should save your energy for the first few fights while we fight for you." Feng Yuxiang said to him."No, I will challenge the Demon Sealing Pagoda by myself this time. I appreciate your consideration, though." Yuan said to them.

After entering the building, Tian Chenyu's voice resounded, "Welcome to the Demon Sealing Pagoda, young demon sealer. I will now tell you the rules of this place. If you break any of them, you'll automatically be removed from this place."
