Chapter 430 - Celebration Parade
A few days later, the day of the celebration arrived as scheduled.
Within Evernight Sovereign City, silk and satin were hung everywhere; the streets were decorated in bright red and luxury, overflowing with a festive atmosphere.
Millions from the Demon Realm gathered in the streets and alleys of Evernight Sovereign City; looking down from above, heads bobbed in a dense crowd, and people were squeezed together everywhere.
Even though it was so incredibly crowded that it made it difficult for everyone to move a single step, it still did not hide the overflowing passion and excitement of the crowd at this moment in the slightest.
Simply because today was the anniversary celebration of the Demon Realm's greatest, supreme sovereign—Demon Lord!
With the celebration day being held again after more than a hundred years, everyone was naturally filled with an irresistible passion and had been looking forward to it for a long time.
However, unlike in the past, on this celebration day, the figures of countless armored guards patrolling back and forth appeared in every street, on rooftops, and even in mid-air.
This celebration day seemed to be much more heavily guarded than any previous one.
All the patrol guards within Evernight Sovereign City had been increased, and even the Imperial Guards from within the Demon Sovereign Palace had been sent out.
But for the crowd immersed in joy and excitement, this was not a big deal.
Everyone also paid it no mind in the slightest.
They simply took it as a manifestation of the current Demon Realm's strength.
One should know, this is the capital of the Demon Realm, Evernight Sovereign City!
You can cause trouble anywhere else in the Demon Realm, and perhaps you might die a bit later.
But if you cause trouble in Evernight Sovereign City, then you will definitely die especially fast!
You might not even need to wait for the city patrol guards to act before some kindhearted passerby strikes out and slaughters you...!
The Left Guardian has ordered that anyone who causes trouble or commits murder within Evernight Sovereign City can be summarily executed by anyone!
And they will not receive any punishment!
For the people of the Demon Race, this was simply their greatest pleasure!
Precisely because of this, almost no one in Evernight Sovereign City dared to easily cause trouble without permission.
Soon, amidst this festive and noisy atmosphere, several fireworks shot vertically into the air like meteors, blooming brilliantly beneath the night sky.
Accompanied by the sounds of vibrating war drums, the long-awaited Demon Lord, together with Madam and the Little Princess, stood atop a luxurious and handsome carriage as it slowly drove from the city gate into the streets.
The celebration parade begins!
"Lord Demon Lord!!"
"Madam!!"
"Little Princess!!"
Everyone on the street cheered, waving their hands in welcome.
Wreaths woven from countless fresh flowers were tossed to the sides of Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying, and petals from across the sky scattered and danced down along with them.
This scene was just as grand and magnificent as when the people of the Demon Realm welcomed the return of their Demon Realm Madam.
Luo Ruying held Luo Hongye, maintaining a dignified, elegant, and gentle posture as she waved to the surrounding crowd with a light smile.
By now, she had gradually become somewhat accustomed to the enthusiasm of the people of the Demon Realm.
Luo Hongye, lying in her arms, stared with her cute and lively large eyes, extending her tender little hands to grab the petals falling through the air like a curious baby.
Standing upright and respectful behind them along with Yue Qingyou, Hu Tutu couldn't help but be shocked by the lively and noisy atmosphere of the people of the Demon Realm.
She hadn't expected that having just arrived in the Demon Realm, she would have the good fortune to witness such a grand festival in the Demon Realm.
The people of the Demon Realm's enthusiasm and support for Lord Demon Lord is so intense...
Almost unstoppable...
Even with rows upon rows of Imperial Guards blocking both sides of the street and separating the crowd, they could still hardly block the people's enthusiasm.
Many people had even squeezed themselves right beside the carriage, passionately offering gifts to Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying.
Especially the countless women of the Demon Realm who were enamored with the Demon Lord; they all presented their carefully prepared gifts with both hands.
"Lord Demon Lord~!!"
"Lord Demon Lord, please accept the gift I prepared for you!"
"And mine too~!"
"I've been preparing for this moment for a long time!"
Facing the overflowing passion of the women, Ning Yechen gave a polite light smile and waved to greet them, which also served as a rejection of the sentiments expressed by the women.
A large part of the reason why he did not want to participate in this celebration day was right here.
Every time, he would be surrounded by the women of the Demon Realm; their passion was truly hard to refuse...
Do not look down on the women of the Demon Realm; in this Demon Realm where honoring the strong is a point of pride and almost everyone practices cultivation, the cultivation strength of many women is not below that of men at all.
The strength of the Demon Realm's women is such that even the Imperial Guards within the Demon Sovereign Palace cannot block them...
In the Demon Realm, if you want to marry your desired sweetheart, having money and a house is not enough; at the very least, you also need to be able to defeat your sweetheart!
Otherwise, you aren't even qualified to propose marriage!
Amidst the cheers and crowding of the women, Ning Yechen inadvertently caught a glimpse of a woman, and his eyes instantly narrowed slightly.
That woman was beautiful yet heroic, her appearance far surpassing the surrounding women by several degrees, and her pretty face stared at him with a faint, knowing smile.
From her body, he did not feel any demonic aura. This indicated that she was clearly not a person of the Demon Race!
Most importantly, for a fleeting moment, that woman made Ning Yechen feel a sense of familiarity.
She was very much like the man he had tracked to the women's bath that day, only for him to escape!
But her chest was prominent, her figure exquisite and graceful, and she didn't even have an Adam's apple in her throat; she was clearly a woman...
Under Ning Yechen's puzzled gaze, the woman smiled brilliantly, lifted the red flower in her hand to give it a light kiss, and then accurately tossed it into Ning Yechen's arms, even winking at him charmingly and playfully.
It gave off a feeling of "waiting for you"...
For a moment, it actually made Ning Yechen a bit unable to understand exactly what the other party was here for...
"Husband~"
Just as Ning Yechen was puzzled, Luo Ruying's "soft" call sounded from behind him.
Ning Yechen turned his head, only to see Luo Ruying with a smile on her face, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, staring at him with a faint, knowing smile.
"Which beautiful woman is Husband looking at, to be so entranced?"
Ning Yechen: "..."
"No matter how beautiful a woman is, how could she compare to even half of my wife's beauty in your husband's heart~"
Ning Yechen hesitated for a moment, then his lips curled into a wicked smile as he proactively leaned in front of Luo Ruying and spoke softly.
In this situation, it was not easy to explain; taking the offensive as a defense was the best strategy!
As expected, these words immediately made Luo Ruying feel embarrassed, a slight blush rising as she gave Ning Yechen a charmingly reproachful glare.
Glib-tongued fellow...!
Facing Luo Ruying's charmingly reproachful gaze, Ning Yechen enjoyed it very much, a slight smile on his lips.
My dear has no resistance at all to such words as expected...
Soon, the carriage, surrounded and followed by everyone in the city, toured various parts of Evernight Sovereign City, passing the duels in the arena on Sovereign Square and various grand and magnificent landmarks in the city.
Finally, the carriage slowly drove into the Demon Sovereign Palace, and under the watchful eyes of the multitude, Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying stepped into the Demon Sovereign Palace together.
Afterward, the parade portion ended, and the Demon Realm began a nation-wide celebration, celebrating freely.
Ning Yechen led Luo Ruying into the Demon Sovereign Palace, where Ye Tianshen, the crowd, and various generals and civil officials of the Demon Realm had already gathered and were waiting.
And just as Ning Yechen had stepped into the Demon Sovereign Great Hall, a figure appeared like black mist, appearing before the Demon Lord's throne in an instant, and plopped down right on it in front of everyone…!
