Against the Gods

Demon Imperial City, the Mu family.

"Although the truth is far more terrifying than what we knew before, the current situation does not need to be too pessimistic." Mu Yubai frowned and said, "In the past hundred years, the reason why Duke Huai's mansion has been able to accept so many forces to surrender. , the main reason is the Little Demon Empress. First, she is a woman, secondly, she has no Demon Emperor Seal, thirdly, her bloodline cannot be awakened, and she has no overpowering, awe-inspiring strength, plus she has no successor. , so if they showed enough strength in Duke Huai's mansion, as well as appropriate temptations and threats, those palaces and guardian families would naturally shake their beliefs..."

"But right now, everyone in the world knows that when the Little Demon Empress takes back the Demon Emperor's Seal, it won't take long before her bloodline will be awakened, and the world will be invincible. I am afraid that now, those forces that tend to favor Duke Huai's residence have already begun to feel uneasy and panic. Today, Che'er gathered the hearts of the world's heroes to the Yun family's side, and *pig*pig*dao*xiao* said that ww.huzu hinted at Duke Huai's mansion's ambitions... As a result, within twenty years at least, Duke Huai's mansion will never dare to act rashly! Unless they want to go against the wrath of the world!"

"Indeed." Mu Yuqing and Mu Yukong also nodded in agreement.

Yun Qinghong glanced at Yun Che's face and said, "Che'er, you don't seem to think so."

Yun Che raised his head slightly, and said calmly, "However, if the Little Demon Empress suddenly dies... Then for Duke Huai's residence, the threat of the Demon Emperor's Seal, as well as all the scruples, will also disappear!"

Yun Che's words startled everyone, and Yun Qinghong said, "Are you worried... Duke Huai's mansion will want to assassinate the Little Demon Empress?"

"This is absolutely impossible!" Mu Feiyan waved his hand, saying, "Even if Duke Huai's mansion is ten times stronger than it is now, and adding ten times more courage to him, he would never dare to confront the Little Demon Empress. Shoot! The Little Demon Empress herself is extremely powerful, and she is surrounded by powerful people like clouds. Even in Duke Huai's mansion, it is difficult to kill the Little Demon Empress. On the contrary, the Little Demon Empress has always wanted Duke Huai's mansion to assassinate her. , in this way, she can seize the traces, and dignifiedly declare to the world the ambition of Duke Huai's mansion and the crime of murdering the monarch and treason, so that Duke Huai's mansion will become the name of the world... What Duke Huai wants is to climb to the top of the demon emperor, order the world, he I haven't had the ability and courage to become what Wanfu refers to."

"I know this." Yun Che's brows still did not stretch: "What I worry about is that if the Little Demon Empress is alone... if they seize the opportunity and leave no trace, it will be a complete mess."

"Of course it's even more impossible." Mu Feiyan waved her hands again: "With the mind of the Little Demon Empress, it is absolutely impossible to give Duke Huai's residence such an opportunity. The Little Demon Empress usually never leaves within 300 miles of the Demon Imperial City. Even if she is really alone and encounters danger outside the city, the fluctuation of her profound strength is enough to immediately alert the entire Demon Imperial City."

Yun Che is naturally clear about this... On the night he and the Little Demon Empress first met, the Little Demon Empress ignited the fire at will, and every ten kilometers became a sea of ​​fire. With the strength of the emperor, the fluctuation of profound energy when they fought with all their strength was enough to alarm thousands of miles away.

But Mu Feiyan's words still did not reassure Yun Che about this matter, he frowned and said while thinking: "On the first day I came to Demon Imperial City, I heard Xiao Yun talk about the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley. There is a lot of thunder and fire, and there are many thunder spirits and fire spirits active... Is there a world where the rules are very different from the outside world?"

"That's right." Yun Qinghong nodded, "The existence of the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley cannot be traced back. It has always been accepted that in ancient times, the divine beast, the Golden Crow, had descended on the Illusory Demon Realm, and today's Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley is where it stayed in the first place. When it left, it left behind its own soul and bloodline inheritance, and with its supreme power, it transformed the area where it stayed into a semi-independent world with the law of transcendental flame... As for why there is Thunder Spirit there , it has always been a mystery, and it is widely rumored that there is a powerful thunder-type treasure somewhere in it."

"So that's the case... Since it is a semi-independent world with different laws from the outside world, then the fire spirits and thunder spirits in it will not escape from that world, and the fluctuations and explosions of profound energy in it will not affect the outside world. Inside, There is no way to transmit sound to the outside world...isn't it?" Yun Che's brows deepened.

"Indeed." Yun Qinghong nodded, and he immediately understood what Yun Che meant: "Che'er, are you worried... The Little Demon Empress suddenly interrupted the ceremony today and left, and went to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley alone?"

"Yes!" Yun Che nodded solemnly, "The Little Demon Empress has endured a century of crisis and heavy pressure, and her greatest desire should be to be able to awaken her bloodline and possess supreme profound strength. Today is the Little Demon Empress's first centennial ceremony, and the world is full of heroes. Gather, the situation has been turned in my favor by me. After she received the Demon Emperor's Seal, she quickly and decisively announced the suspension of the main hall... and then left without explanation. I still can't accept the reason of the Demon Emperor. I have tried many reasons, but she is the most likely to go to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley to awaken her bloodline in the first place in order to prevent the development of the Demon Emperor's Seal in the future!"

"Also, she was clearly in a hurry when she left, but she mentioned that 'there is still half a month before the opening of the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley' was completely unnecessary at the time. It seemed like... a deliberate reminder to the Golden Crow. The Thunder Flame Valley will not open until half a month later, thus disguising the fact that she will be able to open the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley right away."

Yun Qinghong's brows twitched, he finally fully understood why after the ceremony was interrupted, Yun Che would suddenly ask him if there was any other way to activate the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley other than opening it on his own. He faced Mu Feiyan and said, "Father-in-law, have you ever heard of the secret method of the Demon Emperor's lineage to forcefully open the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley?"

Mu Feiyan frowned and thought hard, then slowly shook his head: "I've never heard of it. The Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley has always been opened and closed by itself, and no one can break the barrier that blocks the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley. For years, I have never heard of any demon emperor or anyone else entering the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley when it was closed. This worry should be superfluous."

"There are no absolutes in the world!" Yun Che said calmly, "It hasn't happened before, because the Demon Emperor's lineage has never encountered such a crisis as it is today, and there is no need to forcefully enter it, plus there is no need for the Golden Crow. The reverence of the earth will definitely not enter without reason... But it does not mean that the demon emperor's family must not have a way to forcibly enter it. If there is such a method... Our guardian family does not know, but it does not mean that the palaces of the kings must not know. , because they belong to the Illusory Demon Royal Clan, they will naturally know some secrets that only belong to the Royal Clan."

"And if the palaces of the princes don't know about it... but it doesn't mean that the palace of Duke Huai does not know. At the beginning of the rebellion, the first thing that the palace of Duke Huai had to do was to use all methods and means to find out about the Demon Emperor's family. All the secrets and trump cards. They killed the first demon emperor and the little demon emperor over the years, caused the guardian clan to disintegrate, let the demon emperor's bloodline wither until only the little demon queen remained, but they also blinded the entire Illusory Demon Realm to falsehoods. Among them, I cannot help but admit that Duke Huai’s manor’s methods are vicious, yet extremely superb. I absolutely believe that they have the ability to learn many secrets of the Demon Emperor’s clan that are not known to outsiders.”

No one would deny the power of Duke Huai's mansion. Especially as the truth was gradually uncovered today, they were even more shocked to realize that Duke Huai's mansion was far more terrifying than they knew. Yun Qinghong raised his eyebrows and said, "So, your worry is that the Little Demon Empress might know how to forcibly open the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley and suddenly interrupt the ceremony, just to go to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley as soon as possible. And in order not to disturb anyone , especially Duke Huai's mansion, he will definitely go there alone... and Duke Huai's mansion may also know this secret, and guess the whereabouts of the Little Demon Empress, and then enter it and assassinate the Little Demon Empress!?"

"Yeah." Yun Che nodded slowly, "Although it's just a guess, but if... even if it's just a guess, the Little Demon Empress will be in danger! Once the Little Demon Empress dies, the blood of the Demon Emperor will disappear completely, then, the most powerful In the residence of Duke Huai, you can take over the throne of the Demon Emperor in a grand manner!”

"Hahaha." Yun Che said very heavily, but Mu Feiyan laughed loudly: "As expected of my grandson, his mind is indeed extraordinary, and he is even more cautious and meticulous than that Duke Huai. However, this worry still remains. Is it superfluous?"

Mu Feiyan said without worry: "Che'er, even if all of your guesses are true, the Little Demon Empress did know how to forcibly open the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley, and then quietly went to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley alone, and Duke Huai's mansion also happened to be As you said, I knew the secret and guessed the whereabouts of the Little Demon Empress, and sent experts to enter the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley with it... But, the Little Demon Empress was the first to enter, and even if the people from Duke Huai's mansion responded quickly enough, It will be a second time when they enter. With the strength of the Little Demon Empress, they will definitely be able to reach the Golden Crow Ancestral Land when they are overtaken by them. The Golden Crow Ancestral Land is only possible if one has the bloodline of the Demon Emperor and holds the Demon Emperor’s Seal. After entering, after the Little Demon Empress enters, even if all the people in Duke Huai’s mansion have three heads and six arms, they can’t do anything to her, and if they force her way in… it’s even more likely that they will attract the wrath of the Golden Crow Spirit and burn them all to ashes.”

"When the Little Demon Empress came out of the Golden Crow's ancestral land, her bloodline was already awakened, and she had the "Golden Crow Burning World Record" with her. Even if all the people from Duke Huai's mansion were dispatched, don't think that she would be able to do anything about it."

"So, there's no need to worry about going in this direction. The Little Demon Empress suddenly interrupted the Demon Empress Ceremony, perhaps not necessarily to pay homage to the late Demon Emperor, but there must be a special reason and a reason why we don't know it. It is a great thing to go to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley, wake up the bloodline as soon as possible, and prevent the night from having too many dreams."

Compared to Yun Che's speculation, Mu Feiyan's words were reasonable and impeccable. If the Little Demon Empress really wanted to go to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley to awaken her bloodline immediately, she would definitely go at full speed without wasting a single breath of time...

Yun Che thought silently about Duke Huai's reaction after the ceremony... He left in anger, with a murderous aura towards himself, but his steps were not in a hurry when he left, and his eyes were full of murderous hatred. If it is what he is worried about, he should leave quickly, after all, it takes time to arrange manpower.

Could it be that these speculations and worries of your own are really too much of your own thinking?

—————————

Now that he is in the Mu family, it is inevitable that he will be strongly left behind for dinner by Mu Feiyan.

When he left Mu's house, the night had already fallen. The streets of Demon Imperial City have also begun to become quieter, and it seems to be quieter than before.

Less than a mile away from the gate of Mu's house, Yun Che's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he said earnestly, "Father, mother, Xiao Yun, go back first... I want to go to the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley."

"Ah? Why?" Xiao Yun asked with a look of surprise.

Yun Qinghong frowned, "Are you still worried that your guess will come true?"

"Che'er, didn't your grandfather say it before, even if all your worries become reality, the Little Demon Empress is unlikely to be in danger." Mu Yurou said softly.

"What Grandpa said is true, but I always have a bad intuition." Yun Che said with a frown.

"Straight... Intuition?" Xiao Yun opened his mouth.

"I never doubt my intuition." Yun Che said solemnly, "Because it has saved my life countless times!"

"Uh..." Xiao Yun looked stunned.
