The Holy Maiden of the Demon Race
The black-robed woman tapped the air with the tips of her feet, creating ripples in the air. She crossed a hundred meters in just a few steps, and arrived before Jackdaw and the others.
"Your Excellency, Holy Maiden."
Jackdaw's pupils constricted. He hurriedly knelt on one knee and kowtowed.
The other demons did the same. Their gazes were a mixture of devotion and reverence as they gazed at the newcomer.
"All of you, rise."
Ye Zichen could only see her slightly parted lips through her black robes. He narrowed his eyes at her. At that moment, she took off her hood.
One of her eyes was black, the other purple. Her hair was also half black, half purple.
However, her skin wasn't as dark as the demons'. On the contrary, it was the color of wheat that only humans possessed.
The instant she lifted her hood, Ye Zichen's hand trembled. At the same time, the Holy Maiden smiled at him.
"Emperor Ye, long time no see."
"Yige?"
After a while, Ye Zichen's voice trembled with astonishment.
The Holy Maiden arched her brows and smiled noncommittally. She pursed her lips, a hint of playfulness in her eyes.
"I never would have guessed that Emperor Ye would still remember me. That's my good fortune. However, calling me Yige is one thing. We weren't even that close before. "
Her disdainful tone chilled Ye Zichen's heart. When he took note of her hair color and pupils, he guessed that Sun Yige had already become one with her other self.
The one standing before her was no longer the timid class monitor who didn't dare speak loudly to anyone.
She was the Demon Race's Saintess, a stranger to him.
Not far away, Chi Mei arched her brows. Her gaze flickered back and forth between Ye Zichen and Sun Yige. Gradually, her lips curved into a smile, but no one knew what she was smiling about.
"The demons' Holy Maiden."
Ye Zichen's eyes were filled with helplessness.
He could only purse his lips and say, "Sun Yige, she's …."
"She's doing well. I originally wanted to use her as a guide to meet you. No matter what, you two had a past together. It's just that she's still the same as before. I'm worried that she'll make a fool of herself if she sees you. That'll damage my status as the Holy Maiden. "
The Holy Maiden smiled calmly, then her eyes flashed as she looked at Ye Zichen.
"I've come to take them away. I wonder if Emperor Ye will give me face?"
"Go ahead."
It didn't matter if she was the demons' Holy Maiden or Sun Yige. So long as he saw her face, Ye Zichen couldn't refuse.
Perhaps it was because she felt guilty, or perhaps it was because of some other emotions.
The Holy Maiden took a step to the side and opened up a path for them. At the same time, a charming smile appeared on her face.
"Many thanks for your benevolence, Emperor Ye. I will never forget this kindness. If Emperor Ye wishes to visit the Demon Realm in the future, I will definitely do my best as a host. "
Shortly after, she turned to the Heavenly Sovereigns of the Demon Clan.
"Let's go."
The demon race's sky supremes followed the Holy Maiden and disappeared into the wilderness. Even after they disappeared, Ye Zichen stared fixedly in their direction.
"Hey, they're all gone."
At this moment, Chi Mei waved her fair little hand in front of his eyes.
Only then did Ye Zichen come to his senses. He arched his brows, and Chi Mei smirked.
"I never would have guessed, sweetie. You're so romantic, flirting everywhere you go. Even the demons' Holy Maiden had a relationship with you. Tch tch tch …. How terrifying. "
"I'm not familiar with the demons' Holy Maiden, but …. Never mind, I can't explain things to you," said Ye Zichen.
"Hey, but sweetie …."
Chi Mei suddenly snuck up to Ye Zichen, her mouth almost touching his ear. Ye Zichen's heart trembled involuntarily. When Elder Liu saw this, he couldn't help but frown, but he said nothing.
"Who knows? You might really be able to conquer the world in the future."
Ye Zichen scratched his head in bewilderment. He scratched his head and glanced at Chi Mei, whose eyes flashed with craftiness.
She continued, "Based on your flirting personality, I'll let you handle the demons' Holy Maiden. I have a lot of influence over the yao too. All we're missing now is a Divine Maiden. If you get the chance, you should get together with the Divine Maiden and unify the Three Realms! "
I'm just waiting!
Ye Zichen knew Chi Mei wouldn't have anything good to say to him. When he heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"You're too scared to return to the yao realm?"
"How am I supposed to leave now? You haven't even dealt with the gods yet. If I leave, who's going to hold the fort for you?"
Chi Mei's expression said, "I'm just looking out for you." Ye Zichen really gave in. He cupped his fists and bowed, then turned to the other sky supremes.
During this time, the gods' sky supremes had been tormented. Their thoughts were constantly wandering about, trying to figure out how to keep their puny little lives.
When they sensed Ye Zichen's gaze, the sky supremes immediately tensed up. They stared straight at Ye Zichen, waiting for his judgment.
They really were from the Eight Divine Mountains' great families. Normally, they might be able to band together to suppress Ye Zichen.
But now ….
Threaten him?
No way!
If they tried to suppress Ye Zichen, that would be the stupidest method of all.
Everyone could see that this yao lord was deeply concerned about Ye Zichen, and there was even a ruler eyeing him like a tiger watching its prey!
The sky supremes really wanted to cry. Even as sky supremes, they could be considered overlords on the Divine Mountains.
But now that they were in the Lower Realms, diviners and rulers descended upon them like mad.
They might as well live comfortably on the Divine Mountains.
"Which one of you is from the Northern Divine Mountain's Sea of Innocence?" That was Ye Zichen's first words.
"That's me!"
A middle-aged man stepped out of the crowd. Ye Zichen glanced at him coolly, then saw him take out a token from his waist.
He gave Chi Mei a meaningful glance, and she nodded back at him after looking at him.
"Come over to my side."
Although Ye Zichen hadn't said anything about forgiving him, everyone present was smart. There was no way they wouldn't understand what he meant.
The middle-aged man was delighted. When he'd heard Xiao Hu say the Sea of Innocence had saved Ye Zichen's life, he'd assumed he'd be fine. However, he'd only thought about it. Until the end, no one could predict what the result would be.
It wasn't until Ye Zichen asked him to stand by his side that he finally relaxed.
"The people of the Four Directions Palace, come over here as well."
A bald sky supreme immediately stepped out of the crowd, his expression blank. Even Chi Mei looked at Ye Zichen in surprise. She hadn't known he was connected to the Four Directions Palace.
