The first thing that came to Yuan’s mind when seeing this silhouette was Prime Eternal Morveth, as he’d just killed her pet, the True Emperor of the Seas.
"Are you Morveth?" he asked out loud.
"What?" The silhouette immediately frowned at Yuan’s question and said, "I know it’s been a while since our last encounter, but to think you’d forgotten about me already."
Yuan raised an eyebrow at this familiar voice and quickly corrected himself, "You are... the Demon God?"
"I wasn’t expecting you to approach me first, much less this soon," he added.
The Demon God slowly raised an arm and rubbed his eyes before speaking, "Do you have any idea what sort of trouble you’ve just caused for me?"
"Trouble...?" Yuan tilted his head with a puzzled look on his face, as he was unaware of Prime Eternal Morveth’s earlier attack.
"Because you killed Morveth’s little pet within my territory, she launched an attack on this world," the Demon God revealed, his tone calm yet heavy. "Had I not intervened... this entire realm would have been erased just now."
"Seriously...?" Yuan muttered, momentarily dazed. He had never expected Prime Eternal Morveth to retaliate so swiftly, nor had he realized how close he had come to death just moments ago.
"So you protected me? Thanks."
"What? Don’t get it twisted," the Demon God sneered, his tone sharp with displeasure. "I didn’t do it for you. I simply protected my world."
"Either way, I’m still alive because of your actions," he chuckled lightly. "So, in a sense... You did protect me."
"And to think we once fought each other with our lives on the line," Yuan suddenly remarked.
"Hahaha!" The Demon God burst into laughter. "You really do enjoy rewriting history, don’t you? My life was never at risk back then, and it was yours that hung by a thread."
"Enough reminiscing," the Demon God suddenly said, his tone turning cold. "I didn’t come here for that. I’m here to remind you that you owe me—for the trouble you’ve caused just now, and for entering my domain without permission, which is a direct violation of our agreement."
"How did you even enter my world? The gateway is still sealed," he then asked.
Yuan shrugged, "Honestly, I don’t know. I was in my personal world before coming here, and it was never my intention to come here, so it was an accident."
"Bastard... you created a pathway from your personal world to my world? Just what are you planning?" The Demon God narrowed his eyes at Yuan.
Yuan merely shook his head and explained, "I don’t remember. As you can probably tell, I am not the same Tian Chenyu who fought you in the past. I am his reincarnation."
"That explains why your soul is so much stronger than before," the Demon God sucked his teeth in annoyance.
"Anyway, it’s true that I owe you for saving me, but what do you want from me?" Yuan then asked.
"Frankly, there’s nothing you can give me that I don’t already have or can’t acquire myself, nor is there anything you can do for me right now, so I will collect this debt later."
"That’s fine too, I guess."
Yuan then asked, "By the way, what happened to Prime Eternal Morveth?"
"I chased her away for now, but she will definitely get her revenge one way or another. That said, as long as you’re within the Demonic Realm, I doubt she will try to attack again."
