Starting as a complete failure, he leads the demon race to sweep across the lower realm.

Chapter 39 The final farewell

At midnight, a golden candle flickered on the lampstand, illuminating Ni Yue's somewhat pale lips.

Shiratori looked at her and said, "Ask whatever you want."

Is there any way to restore Silver Door to its original state?

Upon hearing this, Shiratori frowned. "I'm puzzled that you would ask this question. If you knew what he did in the world that has already happened, I think you would regret asking it."

Ni Yue smiled. "Then please tell me, and I'll consider whether I should back out."

"My memory is different from yours, perhaps because our intervention changed the original events, but the ending should be similar. In my inherited memory, he was imprisoned in Purple Thunder Mountain for a thousand years, and almost everyone forgot his existence. The gods had also announced that he had been expelled from the list, but he appeared out of thin air just like when he ascended."

"In the next hundred years, the lower realm was like a living hell. Evil resentment fermented and rose among the human race. The evil race grew stronger day by day, and the human race in the lower realm was almost completely wiped out. They even spread the flames of war to the demon race. The gods could no longer sit idly by and paid the price of extermination to eliminate the evil race. As for that demon dragon, no one knew what happened to him until we saw his remains here."

Bai Niao looked at Ni Yue and said, "Even if he is currently bewitched by the Water God, how could he be bewitched if he didn't have evil thoughts in his mind?"

Soft moonlight streamed in through the window, casting a silvery glow on her long golden hair, and her voice was as gentle as the moonlight, "Even so, I still want to save him."

Ni Yue closed her eyes. "If I don't save him, then there really is no one else who can save him."

Ni Yue's face was expressionless, but her deep pupils seemed to contain all things. In her, there was both the compassion of God for humanity and the indifference of God who saw through the origin of all things.

Bai Niao was lost in thought. She sighed helplessly, "His soul has been tainted by evil power. Only your divine soul can cleanse him of the evil, but you will never be able to be reincarnated. Do you really want to do this?"

"Thank you."

Ni Yue stood up and bowed deeply to her, "Once I die, this illusion should end. I'm sorry for dragging you all into this."

The white bird waved goodbye and watched her leave.

Ni Yue gently closed the door, and after taking only two steps, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

She closed her eyes, and her body was once again under Li Yang's control.

"Idiot, you're clearly about to collapse but you're still trying to be strong. Is that stupid dragon worth it!"

As Li Yang walked and cursed, she suddenly noticed a blurry shadow in front of her and abruptly stopped.

Li Yang turned her head and whispered, "Ni Yue, how did you summon your sword?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than a silver light flew out from her right sleeve. Li Yang subconsciously raised her hand to catch it, and it turned out to be the knife.

Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly raised his broadsword, looking wary. "Yin Fei, what are you going to do!"

The person in front of me emerged from the shadows. Half of his face was covered by spiderweb-like black threads, while the other half struggled between lucidity and confusion.

Li Yang tentatively called out, "Are you Ji Cang?"

The other person suddenly rushed over and grabbed her arm, which was holding the large knife. "Li Yang, tomorrow Yin Fei and I will try to kill the Water God. You must find us and kill us by tomorrow night!"

After saying that, Ji Cang quickly pushed Li Yang away, turned around and flew away.

Li Yang, clutching her reddened arm, glared at Ji Cang as he left. "Damn it, just talk! Why did you push me like that! Ni Yue, now—"

Before she could finish speaking, Li Yang paused, glanced at the deep night sky, and then turned and left.

……

The next day, a golden light streaked across the bright sky and quickly disappeared into the dense forest.

"Ni Yue, where are you going?"

Wearing a misty purple dress, Ni Yue landed lightly on a large tree. Hearing Li Yang's words, she almost laughed, "Aren't you the Demon King? Don't you know where this place is?"

"what?"

The image of Li Yang in her mind instantly turned bright red. "How could they possibly be exactly the same after so long?"

As Ni Yue walked, she looked around at the scenery. A golden bell was hanging from the gold silk belt around her waist, and it jingled with each step she took.

“I just remembered, we share half the blood in each other’s veins. We have a thin blood relationship, Sister Li Yang.”

The sound of the wind gently caressed her, and Ni Yue's fingertips lightly brushed the dew on the branches and leaves, while sunlight unknowingly climbed onto her fingers.

That cry of "Li Yang, my little sister" echoed far and wide in the air.

As the sun gradually rose, its warmth dappled the trees, casting mottled shadows. Before Ni Yue lay a steep cliff, and a cold wind whipped her long dress.

Seeing her stop, Li Yang asked in confusion, "Where are the demons?"

"Don't rush." ​​Ni Yue smiled gently, opened her arms, and leaped into the air!

"Ni Yue!!!"

Even though Li Yang was inside Ni Yue's body, she could still feel the suffocating weightlessness, but the scene before her suddenly changed.

Li Yang's scream caught in her throat. In Ni Yue's view, they landed steadily on a soft grass. A small bridge made of branches spanned the stream in front of them, leading to a cave entrance.

Passing through the cave entrance, one is greeted by a bustling market. The vendors roaming the market are mostly demonic beasts that have not yet fully transformed. Some have two leopard-striped ears, while others have several hairs on their faces.

Li Yang sighed with emotion. It turned out that the demon race also had markets during its heyday, and every demon had a smiling face. Here, they lived carefree lives just like humans.

Upon seeing Ni Yue, the smiles on the faces of the demons froze instantly. Before she could even speak, the bustling market was completely deserted in the blink of an eye.

Li Yang suppressed a laugh, "It seems that Your Highness's reputation among the demons is well-known."

"There's nothing I can do; no one can rival my charm." Ni Yue sighed and continued walking forward.

Ni Yue continued walking along the market, and after a short while, she saw the entrance to a huge stone cave. Two demon guards stood guard outside the cave, and as soon as they saw Ni Yue, they immediately raised their spears at her warily.

"How did you get in!"

Ni Yue glanced at them casually, pulled off the bell from her waist and raised it high. A cool breeze blew by, and the bell rang crisply.

"May I go in?"

"This..." The two guards hesitated. Although they could tell that this was a token of the princess, the demon race and the god race had always been irreconcilable enemies. Even if she was the princess's daughter, they dared not put it in without permission.

"Let her in."

A melodious voice echoed from the cave entrance. Ni Yue bowed towards the entrance and said, "I have come uninvited, please forgive me, Uncle."

After saying that, she stepped inside.

Li Yang thought the cave was spacious and she could see the end at a glance, but she didn't expect that inside there were winding stone walls, and it took her a while to reach the main hall.

Seated in the main hall was a man dressed in a bamboo-green robe, with a white gauze outer garment featuring a dark pattern, and a white and green belt around his waist.

The man's long, fox-like eyes were slightly closed, and he slowly opened them when he heard a noise.

At that moment, a breeze arose in the cave, accompanied by the man's clear and melodious voice echoing within.

"What are you here for?"
