In the Following Two Months
Under Ye Yu’s "death by name call," Heavenly Dragon Cliff went on a relentless campaign, decimating five sects in total.
This time, without Bai Xichu’s intervention, Heavenly Dragon Cliff still emerged victorious, but not without cost: hundreds of demon cultivators lost their lives.
For Ye Yu, however, this was exhilarating to the extreme.
It felt as if he were hacking the system, pushing himself to the peak of the Ascension Stage. He was now only a hair’s breadth away from the Earth Demon realm.
To avoid drawing suspicion about his terrifyingly rapid cultivation progress, Ye Yu spent a fortune on concealment pills, a disguise robe, and practiced the Suppression Breath Technique.
Adhering to his rule of never directly fighting, he managed to keep his secret safe.
However, he soon found himself hitting another bottleneck.
Heavenly Dragon Cliff’s reputation for warmongering had spread far and wide, its victories too dazzling.
As a result, every other sect surrendered preemptively.
Heavenly Dragon Cliff was now indisputably the strongest sect within Demon Lord Bai Xichu’s territory.
At this moment, Ye Yu found himself standing still, metaphorical sword in hand, gazing into the void with frustration.
Just as he was deliberating his next steps, an overwhelming aura filled his room.
A terrifying power descended.
Ye Yu turned to see a veiled woman standing before him.
His brows furrowed slightly as he asked softly:
“Who are you?”
Judging by the demonic energy emanating from her, she was far stronger than Bu Haoyan, who was at the Heavenly Demon stage.
What could such a powerful being want with him?
Ye Yu was deeply puzzled but remained fully alert, ready to act at any moment.
The woman replied indifferently:
“Bai Xichu.”
Indeed, this woman was none other than Demon Lord Bai Xichu herself.
Her name was not unfamiliar to Ye Yu.
A Demon Lord, the undisputed strongest demon within her territory.
Ye Yu’s mind raced, his confusion growing by the second.
He clasped his hands and said:
“I did not expect the Demon Lord to visit in person. What brings you here?”
Bai Xichu slowly approached, gazing at Ye Yu for a moment before saying:
“You are indeed a most unusual demon. I find you... very intriguing.”
Ye Yu’s lips twitched slightly.
"I’ve caught the Demon Lord’s interest? Really?"
"No way, no way. Surely, as a Demon Lord, you wouldn’t be so direct?"
"Are you like the Heavenly Realm’s Zhu Le Immortal, who is notorious for keeping male companions?"
(Referring to the Heavenly Realm’s Zhu Le Immortal, a 300-pound female cultivator with a penchant for maintaining harems.)
"That can’t be right."
Though Bai Xichu wore a black veil, her captivating eyes and graceful figure were impossible to hide.
"With her allure, what kind of man couldn’t she have? Why me?"
As Ye Yu pondered, Bai Xichu continued speaking:
