Yun Lin jumped in with an answer, causing the eyebrows of the gentleman with feminine features next to him to twitch uncontrollably, apparently struggling with restraint.
âOh? The Ten Thousand Demon Nation is that special?â
Feng Qingâan grew increasingly curious.
âOf course!â
At this time, the group had already walked onto a flying bridge plank road connecting two buildings. Upon realizing the extraordinariness of this place, Feng Qingâan focused his senses and finally noticed some changes. When they reached the end of this flying bridge plank road.
Heavens have turned and the earth has flipped!
Feng Qingâan, who often traveled between the mortal world and the netherworld, detected this transformation. Although he was in a building, he clearly knew that where he stood was absolutely not the building he had seen when he first stepped on the plank bridge.
âWhere is this place?â
Feng Qingâan looked at the stars and the moon outside the building. The deep night, studded on the dim sky, but the misaligned stars and moon made him realize that he was no longer in Fengtian City, not even in the original world.
âThis is the Ten Thousand Demon Nation I was talking about, the real Ten Thousand Demon Nation, itâs definitely not what you, Mr. Feng, just saw outside. That place at its best is just a Hundred Demon Tower!â
As if he had arrived on his home turf, Yun Lin explained with pride.
Feng Qingâan walked slowly to the window, looking out over the scenery beyond the building. As he had expected, the bustling and richly ornamented Fengtian City had vanished and was replaced by a variety of buildings that rose and fell with the terrain.
Waves of Demon Qi surged endlessly from the earth to the heavens, extending to the end of sight. Feng Qingâan couldnât help taking a deep breath.
The Demon Qi here was much more terror-inducing than that of the building he had entered earlier. Judging by the amount of Demon Qi, the name âTen Thousand Demon Nationâ was truly deserved.
If it werenât for the fact that the two guys beside him were genuinely of the Human Race, without any Demon Qi, Feng Qingâan would have suspected that he had been deceived into this place by the disguised demons lurking in Da Jin, with ill intentions against him.
[Detecting a Guardian Beast Master entering the damaged Cave Sky of the Demon Clan, verifyingâŠ]
[This Cave Sky was created by an ancient demon of indeterminable age. Due to the loss of its master and lack of upkeep, it is severely damaged, potentially birthing a Cave Sky Spirit!]
Just as Feng Qingâan gazed at the demon qi outside the building and felt awe-stricken, the system which had been silent for a long time suddenly asserted its existence. However, the sparse information in its brief statements left Feng Qingâan greatly shocked, causing a tumultuous wave of thoughts in his mind.
With countless thoughts bursting in his mind, Feng Qingâan now understood why he could not see a trace of Demon Qi before entering the Hundred Demon Tower!
The Hundred Demon Tower, which could reach directly to the damaged Cave
Sky, is actually an extension of the Cave Skyâs power. It appears to exist in Fengtian City, but is actually independent in relation to this world. He can see through everything, but that doesnât mean his eves can penetrate the dimension barrier and see the situation in another dimension.
âIndeed, I did not expect that the real Ten Thousand Demon Nation would look like this!â
Feng Qingâanâs hand rested on the windowsill, he turned to look at Xiao Wu,
âWith such a foundation, the Xiao Family is truly worthy of being the first illustrious family in Fengtian City. In fact, I believe they can even be considered the first illustrious family in all of Da Jin!â
âYou flatter us, Mr. Feng. How could our Xiao Family be considered the first illustrious family of Da Jin? The Luo Family is the actual top family!â Xiao Yi modestly chuckled.
âOh come on, stop pretending. If your family with this Ten Thousand Demon Nation is not the first, then who is?â
Upon seeing his friendâs demeanor, Yun Lin immediately started cursing. His sarcasm was almost entirely unhidden. Thatâs how domineering the Xiao Family was.
They even dared to open this place to the public. Those who could come here were either wealthy merchants or powerful dignitaries. The Xiao Familyâs confidence in revealing this place was truly indicative of their substantial influence.
âDa Jin will always be under the Luo Family. If you keep talking nonsense, donât blame me for kicking you out today!â
Seeing his friendâs ridiculous talk, Xiao Yi warned.
âSo what about the Luo Family? Didnât your familyâs ancestors also become emperors!â
Yun Lin kept complaining, making Xiao Yiâs face darker and darker, âGuards, get this rascal out of here!â
The moment his words fell, two burly and brawny men with heights of one Zhang (3-3 meters) walked into the room. An intense Demon Qi billowed from them, and the tiger stripes all over their bodies quietly proclaimed their identities.
âNo, Fifth Brother, Master Fifth, Iâm sorry, Iâm just here to let loose tonight. I heard that your Ten Thousand Demon Nation just got some new arrivals, I just want to check them out. Donât kick me out, that would be a total bummer!â
Seeing his fox friend meant business, Yun Lin immediately bowed his head in a pitiful pleas for mercy, not daring to be disrespectful anymore.
âWas Da Liao founded by your Xiao Family ancestors?â
Feng Qingâanâs face shows a subtle expression at this moment, realizing the value of reading history. Da Liao was a nation that was overthrown by the grand emperor a few centuries ago, and if heâs not wrong, their royal family had the surname Xiao.
âCorrect, Da Liao was founded by their ancestors. Sadly, it didnât even last two hundred years before it wasâŠâ
At this moment, Yun Lin failed to keep his mouth shut.
âThrow this impudent lout out!â
Xiao Yiâs expression immediately darkened. For many families, the establishment of a nation and being of royal descent are historical achievements to brag about. But for the Xiao family, itâs nothing but a dark past.
Because, the founder of the Xiao family explicitly forbade the creation of any nation. However, one of their descendants who had gained powerful strength could not resist the temptation of power, and established a dynasty that didnât even last two hundred years.
The most embarrassing part for their later generations is that this power-hungry ancestor, from the first day he became the emperor to the last day of the nationâs ruin, did not appoint a crown prince. The Da Liao dynasty had only one emperor from beginning to end.
This ancestor also suffered from unavoidable and unstoppable karmic retribution due to the collapse of Da Liao, and died of sudden brutal death when the King City was captured, causing the Xiao family to nearly collapse.
Since then, theyâve adhered to their ancestorâs decree and refrained from trying to build their own dynasty. âStop, Master Fifth, Daddy Fifth, I was wrong, I wonât talk anymore!â
Seeing two burly men transformed from tigers walking towards him, Yun Lin, completely enveloped by a buddhist aura, threw himself onto Xiao Yi without any formalities.
âIâm going to go see the ghost bride now, the one I had reserved earlier. Iâm going to play with her!â
âItâs gone!â
Xiao Yi pushed his hand against the face of this shameless scoundrel trying to peel him off, looking disgusted and annoyed.
âWhatâs gone?â
âIf you donât get off me, Iâll use a thunder talisman to turn your ghost bride to ashes!â
âNo, Master Fifth, letâs talk it out. Itâs such a waste to turn the ghost bride into ashes. If you think you have too many thunder talismans, you can give me a few hundred, I wonât mind!â
Yun Lin, who was blessed with good looks, finally let go of his hold. As for the two fierce-looking tiger men, they stopped not far away, showing some discernment.
âGet out of here!â
âHehe!â
âSo, Mr. Feng, what are you here for?â
Yun Lin adjusts his clothes, finally remembering that he had invited a distinguished guest.
âIf you canât decide, I can offer you my reserved ghost bride!â
âWhatâs a ghost bride?â
Feng Qingâanâs expression turned rather peculiar, unsure if itâs a euphemism or an actual ghost creature.
âA bride who died unjustly on her wedding night. Rest assured, the bride I picked is carefully chosen, she was a virgin in her life, she even still has the maiden sand on her hand, absolutely clean!â
Yun Lin explained with a wave of his hand and dancing brows.
âIs it about cleanliness?â
Feng Qingâan was speechless.
His understanding of the high-ranking princes of Da Jin had become somewhat blurred. He had to say, they did have some weird tastes. But he isnât that⊠Ahem, except for Nan Ge and Dong Huang who are innate Yin spirits, having almost flesh-like entities..
