With the death of Dao Immortal Feng Ming, the last remaining Dao Immortal of the Dao Immortal Sect, South Li City fell into complete silence.
Night Sky God and the others returned to Yue Qingyou's side to report.
The crowd at South Li Academy watched this scene, their fear growing...
All the Immortals of the Immortal Realm had perished, and South Li City had fallen completely under the control of the Demonic Race.
Luo Ruying stared at Night Sky God and the others in shock.
These people she had interacted with daily weren't just disguised members of the Demonic Race; their cultivation and power were terrifyingly immense.
She knew the strength of Dao Immortal Feng Ming and the others, as they were the six great Immortal Law Elders of the Dao Immortal Sect.
Even in her prime, she would have struggled to defeat them.
Yet Mad Prisoner and the others had slaughtered them with overwhelming dominance...
Luo Ruying's heart was deeply shaken, and her beautiful eyes involuntarily turned back to the Immortal Pearl floating at the center.
He should be returning soon...
Just then, the Immortal Pearl blazed with dazzling light, and a figure slowly stepped out from the radiance...
Luo Ruying and Su Yi held their breath, their eyes fixed on the figure about to emerge.
Meanwhile, Yue Qingyou and the other members of the Demon Realm remained completely at ease.
No one knew better than they did the sheer power of their Demon Lord.
The figure who stepped out would undoubtedly be their great Supreme Sovereign!
Under the gaze of countless expectant eyes, Ning Yechen's handsome and captivating face appeared before them.
He stood tall and proud, his robes spotless, and not a single wound marred his body.
The crowd at South Li Academy stared in shock at Ning Yechen's safe return.
He really came back...
So fast...
And he looked utterly relaxed, with no trace of battle on his person...
At that moment, all doubt about Ning Yechen's identity as the Demon Lord vanished.
Seeing Ning Yechen appear, Luo Ruying felt the heavy stone in her heart finally lift. A faint, relieved smile spread across her beautiful face.
He's safe...
Yue Qingyou, Lin Li, and the tens of thousands of members of the Demonic Race hovering in the air simultaneously placed a hand over their hearts, bowed slightly in reverence, and proclaimed in unison:
"Demon Lord!"
The thunderous roar reverberated through South Li City, compelling even the citizens within to involuntarily kneel and lower their heads.
Even Xia Guo, a cultivator of the Heavenly God Realm, found his legs buckling involuntarily, his body rendered immobile.
Of course, this was because Yue Qingyou had secretly embedded a verbal command within her words, compelling all to submit.
Previously, when the Demon Lord was still concealing his true identity, she had reluctantly forgiven the city's insolent inhabitants.
Now that his identity no longer needed to be hidden, she would not tolerate anyone daring to act presumptuously in the Demon Lord's presence.
Without the Demon Lord's permission, how could mere ants dare stand before him?
The only one present who remained standing before Ning Yechen was Luo Ruying, as the Demon Realm Lady.
Only when she noticed everyone else kneeling did Luo Ruying remember Ning Yechen's status as the Demon Lord.
Even after spending so long with him as her mortal husband, she still found it difficult to believe that he had suddenly become the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm.
Luo Hongye, nestled in Luo Ruying's arms, had no ulterior thoughts. The moment she saw Ning Yechen return, she eagerly stretched out her tiny hands and called out in her soft, sweet voice:
"Daddy~"
Seeing her child reaching out for a hug, Ning Yechen couldn't help but smile indulgently. He walked over to Luo Ruying and took the child into his arms.
The petite, soft Luo Hongye felt like a warm, cuddly doll in his embrace.
"Daddy, Yeye was so worried about you..."
Luo Hongye pressed her face against Ning Yechen's chest, lifting her small head to gaze up at him with her big, innocent eyes.
Ning Yechen felt his heart melt completely...
*Such a cute and sensible darling daughter~*
"It's Daddy's fault for making our Yeye worry," he said, stroking her head. "Look, Yeye, Daddy's fine~"
Luo Hongye's wide eyes seriously examined Ning Yechen's body. Seeing that he was unharmed, she asked curiously, "So, what happened to that bad guy, Daddy?"
"Of course, Daddy defeated that bad guy!" Ning Yechen said proudly, puffing out his chest.
"Really?"
"Absolutely!"
"Is Daddy amazing?"
"Daddy's so cool!" Luo Hongye said happily, waving her little hands.
Ning Yechen beamed with satisfaction.
The Su Yi and his group, still kneeling on the ground, looked up and suddenly doubted Ning Yechen's identity as the Demon Lord.
Rumors claimed the Demonic Race had grotesque appearances, bloodthirsty natures, and a particular fondness for eating children...
Yet Ning Yechen fit none of these descriptions.
The mighty Demon Lord was actually showing such a contented, happy smile just because a child had praised him...
Ning Yechen suddenly remembered the Immortal Pearl behind him. He turned, reached back, and grasped it, the pearl flying into his palm.
"Yeye, this glass ball is for you to play with!"
Without hesitation, Ning Yechen pressed the Immortal Pearl into Luo Hongye's hand.
Before returning, Ning Yechen had completely reset the scenery within the Heaven and Earth Dharma Realm. The Immortal Pearl now once again displayed a breathtaking natural landscape of towering peaks and clear waters.
"Mmm..."
Luo Hongye, her tiny hands barely able to embrace the Immortal Pearl, blinked her wide, curious eyes, gazing into the miniature world within the pearl.
Xia Guo and the others stood dumbfounded by Ning Yechen's actions.
That Immortal Pearl contained a small, unique realm—a world unlike any other in existence, far surpassing ordinary immortal artifacts!
Yet Ning Yechen, to amuse a two-year-old child, was treating it like a mere glass marble!
What a colossal waste of a divine treasure!
Xia Guo and the others couldn't help but feel their hearts ache...
If this were given to them, they would have enshrined it...
After pacifying the child, Ning Yechen, still holding Luo Hongye, turned his gaze to Luo Ruying.
Their eyes met, and a brief silence fell between them.
The Night Sky God's followers watched nervously as Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying faced each other.
They all knew the Demon Realm Lady was unaware of the Demon Lord's true identity.
It seemed she still belonged to the Immortal Realm...
Now that the Demon Lord's identity had been revealed, what would happen next?
