Chapter 427 - They Better Not Fail to Show Up!
Previously, Xujian Jun had been one of the Thirteen Demon Generals just like them, so they were not allowed to take action against one another.
At most, they could only engage in appropriate sparring between themselves.
Otherwise, what awaited them was the severe punishment of Yue Qingyou!
But now it was different!
If Xujian Jun truly led the Xujian family and the ten thousand demons of the Northern Domain in rebellion, then they would be enemies!
When dealing with enemies, there was no need to consider mercy or holding back...!
Xujian Jun? A former companion?
Deepest apologies! Truly not that close!
Everyone now only wanted to obtain Yue Qingyou’s permission and then run to the Northern Domain to cause a massive scene!
Yue Qingyou also clearly knew what everyone was thinking in their hearts, so she directly and sternly refused them.
“Whether Xujian Jun has truly betrayed Lord Demon Lord is still a matter to be confirmed.”
“Lord Demon Lord has ordered that before it is confirmed that Xujian Jun has violated his oath, no action is to be taken against the Northern Domain for the time being.”
“Ehhh~~ The Northern Domain is already gathering a massive army; this is definitely a rebellion!”
“Lord Demon Lord is truly too merciful.”
“Exactly, you might as well just let me go and flatten the entire Northern Domain!”
“Those who dare betray Lord Demon Lord should be subjected to the most cruel punishments!”
Hearing that they still could not take action against the Northern Domain, Yan Lili and the others let out various sounds of dissatisfaction and complaints.
With great difficulty, their high level of interest had been piqued, only to be told they couldn't act yet and had to continue waiting.
This made their hearts increasingly restless and unbearable.
Using the metaphor in Hun Mei’s heart, it was like Lord Demon Lord standing stark naked before her waiting for her, but she was bound in full body restraints, unable to move, and could only watch helplessly while being unable to eat him—that kind of feeling of despair!
“Once it is confirmed that Xujian Jun intends to rebel, there will be an opportunity for you to take action.”
Seeing everyone’s looks of disappointment and impatience, Yue Qingyou spoke indifferently to assure them.
Hearing this, everyone could only suppress the urgent and excited feelings in their hearts.
In their hearts, they silently prayed: Xujian Jun, you absolutely must rebel...!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have any fun at all!
“Besides the matter of Xujian Jun, there is another matter for summoning you this time.”
“Lord Demon Lord’s celebration day is imminent; gather everyone throughout the Demon Realm and be ready at all times to activate the arrays, responding with the highest alert!”
“Immediately make full preparations within your respective governed territories; there must be no errors!”
Yue Qingyou’s beautiful eyes coldly surveyed everyone present as she sternly gave the order.
Since Lord Demon Lord had no intention of canceling the celebration day, everything had to be made foolproof.
“Highest alert...?!”
Yan Lili let out a delicate cry of surprise, her face showing confusion.
The others also cast looks of confusion and doubt toward Yue Qingyou.
“How long has it been since the Demon Realm required the highest alert...”
“I don't remember; ever since Lord Demon Lord unified the Demon Realm, it seems we have never been this serious.”
“Is it really necessary to be on such full alert just to deal with the Northern Domain?”
“Wouldn't it be enough to just have the territories bordering the Northern Domain respond with the highest alert?”
“However, if it's for Lord Demon Lord’s celebration day, having every part of the Demon Realm on highest alert isn't really a problem.”
“This highest alert is not for dealing with the Northern Domain.”
Listening to the sounds of everyone’s discussions in her ears, Yue Qingyou spoke in a deep voice to interrupt.
“It's not for dealing with the Northern Domain...?”
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions became increasingly puzzled.
If it wasn't for dealing with the Northern Domain, then what was it for?
A cold light surfaced in Yue Qingyou’s beautiful eyes as she continued coldly:
“According to the news sent by Kui from the Heavenly Realm, the Divine Realm and the Heavenly Realm are currently preparing for a joint crusade against my Demon Realm!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s expressions froze for a moment, and then their faces gradually revealed looks of savage ecstasy.
For everyone, this was simply a pleasant surprise!
“Is—is it true!”
“Fantastic!!”
“Lord Left Guardian, you can't lie to us~!”
“They better not fail to show up!”
“If they don't come, I'll be very sad~!”
“When are they coming?!”
Everyone impatiently crowded around Yue Qingyou, pressing her with questions.
Their expressions looked as if they couldn't wait for the people from the Divine and Heavenly Realms to hurry up and come to their Demon Realm.
Originally, hearing that they couldn't take action against the Northern Domain yet, everyone was somewhat disappointed and dejected.
At this moment, the feelings of disappointment and dejection in their hearts vanished without a trace, replaced by nothing but full expectation and ecstasy.
Toward the Northern Domain, they might more or less have to consider showing a tiny bit of mercy for their own kin.
Of course, certainly not too much...
But if it were against those insects from the Divine and Heavenly Realms, then there was absolutely no need to consider such matters!
They would do whatever made them happy!
They would do whatever made them suffer!
They would also make them taste every kind of torture and execute them amidst their remorse!
This was the principle of their Demon Race's conduct!
Just thinking about being able to enjoy themselves to their hearts' content and do as they pleased, they were already almost dying of anticipation!
“Perhaps they will come very soon.”
“At that time, you all know what to do, right?”
Yue Qingyou asked, her beautiful eyes coldly staring at everyone.
“Understood~!”
Everyone understood tacitly and nodded with a hideous smile.
There was no need for the Lord Left Guardian to give extra instructions; as veteran demons, they all knew what to do!
They were the best at this kind of thing!
“Besides wiping out the insects from the Divine and Heavenly Realms, you must also implement measures to protect the citizens of the Demon Realm within your respective governed territories.”
“The Demon Realm belongs to the Lord Demon Lord!”
“Guarding the citizens of the Demon Realm is also the mission and duty bestowed upon you by the Lord Demon Lord!”
“The necessary evacuations and barriers should be prepared in advance.”
“Do not let the Lord Demon Lord be shamed!”
Yue Qingyou instructed coldly.
“Yes!”
“We follow the command of the Lord Left Guardian!”
Ye Tianshen and the others hurriedly placed their hands over their chests and bowed solemnly in response.
The Lord Left Guardian had always been the one who cared most about maintaining the peace of the Demon Realm and the reputation and dignity of the Demon Lord.
Once she found out someone had neglected their duty, shamed the Lord Demon Lord, or done anything to let him down, one could imagine the consequences!
This was, after all, a woman who had always viewed and raised the Lord Demon Lord as her own child in her heart...
Sometimes, everyone couldn't help but wonder whether the Lord Left Guardian was maintaining the majesty of the Demon Realm and the Lord Demon Lord's reputation out of her duty as the Left Guardian, or simply as a mother protecting her own child...
“Since you all know, the meeting ends here.”
“Prepare well to welcome the insects from the Divine and Heavenly Realms~!”
Yue Qingyou gave her final instruction to Ye Tianshen and the others.
Everyone shared a knowing smile, bowed to accept the order, and impatiently retreated into the darkness and disappeared.
On this night, armies gathered across the Demon Realm!
After Ye Tianshen and the others left, Yue Qingyou summoned Shadow.
Shadow emerged from the darkness of the ceiling like a mass of shadows, revealing half of his body.
“Shadow, immediately go to the Northern Domain to investigate!”
“If Xujian Jun has truly betrayed the Lord Demon Lord, you don't need to take action; just come back and tell me!”
“I will settle it personally!”
Yue Qingyou coldly ordered Shadow.
Once she confirmed Xujian Jun's betrayal, even if the Lord Demon Lord pleaded for mercy, she would not let him or the entire Northern Domain off!
But before that, in order to deal with the insects of the Divine and Heavenly Realms, she needed to take a trip to the Execution Palace first…!
