Chapter 2492: Revealing the Truth of the Demonic Realm

Yuan took a deep breath before speaking, "What you learn today will change your entire perspective of demons, and some might not even believe me because of how ridiculous it sounds. Unfortunately, everything I say from now on is the truth."

The Demon Sealers swallowed nervously after seeing the grave expression on Yuan’s face.

After a moment of silence, Yuan began, "When demons first appeared, no one knew where they had come from, and most assumed they originated from the Starry Sky. In reality, however, they came from the Demonic Realm—a place long believed to have been ’created’ by the first demon, the Red Tyrant, as a sanctuary for demonkind."

"Not only did the Red Tyrant not create the Demonic Realm, but their world has existed long before the Nine Heavens. As for the demons that came to our world... they did not come here by choice and were chased away from their own home."

The Demon Sealers’ eyes widened with surprise at this revelation, but they remained silent.

"As you all probably know by now, I have been inside the Demonic Realm since my disappearance, and I have learned a lot about their kind and history while I was there. I thought I learned a lot about them during my first visit to the Demonic Realm, but it turns out that I was still a frog in a well and that I didn’t know them as much as I thought."

"Anyway, within the Demonic Realm, there exist two kinds of demons. The first kind is the one all of you are familiar with—bloodthirsty, cruel, and heinous fiends that bathe themselves in the blood of innocents. They are the ones who enslaved our world during the Demonic Era, and they are the ones that must be annihilated."

"Then there is the second kind of demons..."

After a brief pause, Yuan continued, "To be frank, I do not know how else to describe them aside from ’human,’ because aside from their demonic appearance, they are no different from us. These demons possess emotions, reason, and self-control just like humans do."

"WHAT?!"

Multiple people cried out in shock and disbelief upon hearing such a revelation.

However, Yuan ignored the commotion and continued, "The first kind of demons are known as ’Forsaken’ within the Demonic Realm. They terrorize their own people just as they once terrorized us, which is why they are all captured and confined within a place similar to the Primordial Realm—forever imprisoned and separated from the rest of the population."

"Quite frankly, Forsakens are not all that different from the criminals and monsters that we, as a normal and peaceful society, must deal with. No matter how many good apples there are, there will always be rotten ones who steal, murder, and commit all sorts of heinous acts."

Yuan sighed before continuing, "In our world, those who commit crimes are either imprisoned or executed. However, the peaceful demons only truly have one option... imprisonment, since demons, especially powerful ones, are not so easy to kill."

"Furthermore, any demon—regardless of how peaceful or righteous they may be—has a chance of turning into a Forsaken. It is somewhat akin to an incurable disease."

"Although the Demonic Realm is vast—far larger than the Nine Heavens—their immortality has led to severe overpopulation and a shortage of resources. Because of this, they chose to send the Forsaken far away beyond their world... unknowingly sending them to ours."

Yuan paused briefly before continuing, "Before my first visit to the Demonic Realm, they were completely unaware of our existence, just as we knew nothing about them."

"I will now give you some time to digest this information before I continue," he said before falling silent.

"There’s still more?!" The Demon Sealers were bewildered.
