In just a few breaths,
three tall, horned male demons appeared above the Demon Hall.
They hovered in the sky in a triangular formation, silent.
Ye Yu could clearly sense that the demonic aura within these three far surpassed the Demon King Realm.
They must be the powerful Demon Lords of the Demon Realm.
But wasnât this somewhat unbelievable?
The demonic aura had only been revived for the length of an incense stick.
Why had these three Demon Lords already come to his Niepan Province Demon Hall?
And they stood there quietly, cold as freshly awakened mummies.
Noâwait!
Ye Yu suddenly noticed that these three Demon Lordsâ eyes were completely pitch black, with no distinction between iris and sclera.
Pei Chuxia also sensed this abnormality.
She trembled and said, "Mind Control Technique!"
Hearing this, Ye Yu asked puzzled, "What is the Mind Control Technique?"
After Pei Chuxiaâs explanation, Ye Yu finally understood everything.
In the Demon Realm, there were many demon races.
Besides â NĐŸvĐ”lŃĐłht â (Donât copy, read here) common types like Blood Demons, Charm Demons, Corpse Demons, Shadow Demons, there were rarer Fallen Demons and Mind Demons.
Originally, demons cultivated body refinement techniques, but after the Six Realms passages were severed,
they mainly cultivated demonic aura and, like immortals, studied magic and divine powers.
Fallen Demons and Mind Demons, however, from the very start cultivated soul power.
Their bodies might be weak,
but their souls were extraordinarily strong.
Counting carefully, Ye Yu realized this was already his second time entering the Demon Realm.
He had never heard of Fallen or Mind Demons before because they were extremely rare and had unique cultivation methods,
making it very difficult for them to enter the path of cultivation.
For tens of thousands of years, there had been no powerful Fallen or Mind Demons.
Most had perished in the lower levels,
barely entering Ye Yuâs notice.
Meanwhile, Blood Demons and Corpse Demons had risen rapidly,
using their resilience to occupy the mainstream of demonic cultivation.
This was the legendary survival of the fittest.
Actually, not only Ye Yu, but even Pei Chuxia had never seen a Mind or Fallen Demon beyond the Consolidation Realm.
Even the Mind Control Technique was something she only read about in ancient texts.
Ten thousand years ago, a Mind Demon named Qiao Shoushu was the master of this art.
He single-handedly controlled ten Demon Emperor Realm demons and ravaged the borders of Wuyan Province,
using ruthless tactics to conquer many demons, attempting to swallow an entire province.
(This is a friendly reminderâthis is not filler. Terms like Earth Demon, Heaven Demon, Profound Demon, Demon King, Demon Lord, Demon Emperor, Demon Sovereign, Demon Emperor appear.)
Such actions alarmed Luo Fengtai, Demon Lord of Wuyan Province.
Although he was a Demon Sovereign Realm powerhouse, he recognized Qiao Shoushuâs terror.
If given time to grow, he would become a great menace.
So he gathered his top generals to quell the rebellion at the border.
That battle lasted ten days and nights.
Twenty-seven Demon Emperor Realm powerhouses of Wuyan Province perished.
Although they eventually killed Qiao Shoushu, the Demon Lord of Wuyan Province was severely wounded and died in the Demon Hall only three days later.
That battle revealed the horror of Mind Demons to the entire Demon Realm.
"Truly grateful!"
Ye Yu was baffled.
He then asked, "You must have the wrong person. When did I ever help you?"
Qiao Shoushu laughed, "You really are forgetful of your benefactors, but honestly, itâs all too coincidental."
"At the Niepan Province border, a brat possessed an ancient demonic body and fought you fiercely."
"The battle of two Ancient Demon bodies was truly magnificentâeven I havenât seen the like for a very long time."
"It was majestic beyond words."
"I was buried deep underground but was pushed into the corner by your fight."
"And your final punch reduced him to a blood mist."
"That blood mist just so happened to fall into my life essence,"
"which caused me to awaken prematurely."
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Perhaps this is what they call the unintentional planting of willows, which grows into shade?"
"Indeed quite the coincidence."
"But judging by Qiao Shoushuâs fierce demeanor, he didnât seem here just to thank me."
Ye Yu muttered, "I acted unintentionally; no need to thank me."
Qiao Shoushu shook his head repeatedly.
"That wonât do!"
"A life-saving favor deserves proper thanks."
"How about I leave your entire corpse for you? Oh, and if youâre lonely, I can kill this little girl too, so you have company in deathâhowâs that?"
Qiao Shoushu was seriously negotiating with Ye Yu.
His tone was sincere, but murderous intent radiated from his words.
