That night, Ye Yu and Pei Chuxia both announced they were entering seclusion.
Yue Xing’er and Ye Chenyin had no objections.
Two people secluded together? That’s hardly true seclusion—they were definitely going to be clingy with each other.
As parents, how could they care?
However, Ye Chenyin and Yue Xing’er never suspected that the seclusion was fake—that secretly slipping out of Jiulian City was the real plan.
Ye Yu clearly understood how doting his parents were during this dream phase.
They absolutely wouldn’t allow him to wander freely at this time.
So this strategy was a last resort.
After all, there’s an old saying: no matter how doting your parents are, nothing beats your own strength.
In this demon realm where strength rules, Ye Yu naturally wanted to have power himself.
Only then could he protect those he wanted to protect.
Besides, Pei Chuxia’s deep blood feud still awaited his vengeance!
After leaving talisman duplicates at their seclusion place,
They slipped quietly away from Jiulian City under the moonlight,
Flying swiftly toward Nirvana Province.
Yes, the place they headed to was Demon Lord Li Yao’s domain, Nirvana Province.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.
Few would have guessed that after killing Li Yao’s son, Ye Yu would dare to roam Nirvana Province.
Hence, it was actually safer there.
Ye Yu and Pei Chuxia only needed to wear masks.
Pei Chuxia was also very familiar with Nirvana Province and knew the locations of many former demon prodigies.
She could help Ye Yu target precise strikes,
Saving time and effort.
But for safety’s sake, they kept as far away from the demon hall of Nirvana Province as possible.
In the days that followed,
Thanks to Ye Chenyin’s deliberate arrangements, news spread quickly that Demon Lord Li Yao of Nirvana Province was cultivating an unprecedented demonic skill, intending to conquer the entire demon realm.
This caused the demons who were previously waiting to see the show to no longer laugh.
Honestly, at first, they had all been waiting for Demon Lord Li Yao to take strong revenge for his son.
But as time passed, he hadn’t made a move.
This made many demons believe Li Yao was scared stiff by Ye Chenyin, unwilling to confront him—making him the most cowardly demon lord in the realm.
Thus, Nirvana Province became a laughingstock,
Its demon lord labeled a coward.
But now, with the news that he was cultivating an unprecedented demonic skill,
Many demon lords began to feel uneasy.
It was because of this cultivation that he hadn’t avenged his son yet.
Even becoming a target of ridicule, he hadn’t clarified anything.
This suggested the cultivation skill must be extremely powerful.
Otherwise, Li Yao wouldn’t endure such humiliation.
No way! If Demon Lord Li Yao completes it, it’s game over for them!
Soon, many demon lords began taking their own actions.
Just two days later,
Nirvana Province’s demon hall suffered the first attack by unknown demons.
They were incredibly bold—a five-person squad formed a spearhead and charged directly to the demon hall’s entrance before being completely wiped out.
Panic spread quickly.
At first, the people of Nirvana Province thought it was Ye Chenyin of Juque Province behind the attack.
They immediately ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) sent envoys accusing Ye Chenyin of acting without morals.
Ye Chenyin retorted fiercely:
“If it were my doing, would I only send five to your gate?”
“I could have smashed through your entire demon hall!”
“Besides, I know better than you how to root out enemies.”
“If I wanted to act, you’d be dead long ago, and you wouldn’t be here talking.”
“Get lost quickly, and tell Li Yao not to bite people like a mad dog.”
“If you suspect it’s me, fine—let’s fight tomorrow!”
Such bold words stunned the envoys.
Actually, they made sense.
Ye Chenyin’s strength was unquestionable.
If he had truly ordered an attack, it would be well prepared—not just five weak Xuanmo Realm fighters.
But then again,
If it wasn’t Ye Chenyin, then who was it?
The envoys returned to Nirvana Province with this doubt.
That same night, the demon hall faced three more attacks by unknown groups.
They were definitely not sent by the same master.
When the three groups met at the gate, they even fought among themselves.
This confused the demons of Nirvana Province.
“If you’re fighting each other, what do you want from us?”
When the three groups noticed the stunned demons, they realized a mistake had happened.
So they charged again toward the demon hall.
Unfortunately, none succeeded in entering or meeting Demon Lord Li Yao.
But don’t think this was the end.
In fact, it was only the beginning.
In the following half month, Nirvana Province was repeatedly attacked by various demons.
On the darkest night, thirteen waves of attackers surged to the demon hall’s outskirts.
The defenders suffered heavy casualties.
It was then they discovered Demon Lord Li Yao was not inside the demon hall.
He wasn’t even in Nirvana Province’s main city.
Otherwise, how could he ignore such chaos?
This news again confirmed Li Yao was indeed cultivating that unprecedented demonic skill.
He must be hiding away to practice!
This angered many demon lords.
They increased the frequency of sending experts into Nirvana Province.
Their only task: find Demon Lord Li Yao’s whereabouts quickly and disrupt anything he was doing.
They absolutely wouldn’t let him have it easy!
The demons of Nirvana Province also found out the reason behind the many attacks—
It was all because of rumors spreading in the demon realm.
They were helpless and frustrated.
“Good heavens, just because of some rumors, Nirvana Province became the demon realm’s target!”
“Whose idea was this? Too cruel!”
To stop further casualties and disturbances,
Nirvana Province’s second-in-command, Lü Cangshan, issued a statement:
“Demon Lord Li Yao is not cultivating any unprecedented demonic skill. He has gone out on business. Fellow demon lords, please do not misunderstand!”
