Back in the Golden Ring Snake Clan's territory, Bai Ze and the other Great Demons naturally didn't leave, remaining by Tan You's side. After all, the Golden Ring Snake's domain was more than spacious enough; a few extra guests were nothing.
But Tan You didn't expect to receive a pleasant surprise the moment she arrived in the territory. "Qing Ming? You ascended? When did you ascend?"
Qing Ming looked a bit embarrassed. "It was just a few years ago. My aptitude is poor, so ascending was a real struggle. I knew you were at the Immortal-Demon Battlefield, My Lord, so I didn't want to disturb you. Fortunately, the sovereign allowed me to stay here."
"It wasn't just me. Xuezhi and Two-Tailed Cat ascended too. It's just Little Mouse—he's too fragile. He's still in the lower realm, waiting to grow up with Little Bai Ze."
Tan You casually scooped the Two-Tailed Cat into her arms. "That's wonderful. You all made it. Ascending must have been tough, wasn't it?"
