As a late Ascension Realm great demon, Gu Xiquan was furious to the extreme but did not act immediately.
That was because demons undergoing tribulation were already in a life-or-death situation.
Perhaps without intervention, Ye Yu would perish beneath the heavenly tribulation.
The urgent matter now was to find his wife Baiyang and gain full control over her.
Whether or not she had truly been unfaithful with the monkey demon didn’t matter.
She must be made to deny it and come up with a plausible excuse explaining why the monkey demon was there.
After all, all demons on Giant Liang Mountain were present.
If Baiyang admitted to having cuckolded him, how could the Demon King keep his dignity?
How would he lead the little demon squads afterward? ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) What would happen to his authority?
So no matter what, Gu Xiquan could not afford to lose face.
Even if it cost him dearly, he had to preserve the last shred of his manly pride.
This matter was of utmost importance.
Without hesitation, Gu Xiquan immediately released his divine sense to search for Baiyang’s whereabouts.
But this effort was doomed to fail.
Once demons died, they returned to their original forms.
Without soul and demon power support, the original form was fragile.
Especially for a rabbit demon like Baiyang—fragile beyond fragile.
Therefore, when the first heavenly thunder struck, it not only shattered the Blessed Cave Heaven but also pulverized Baiyang’s corpse.
Because of this, no matter how Gu Xiquan searched, he could never find his wife.
He could only sense residual demon energy fluctuations in the Blessed Cave Heaven halfway up the mountain.
That proved she had just been there.
As time passed, the tribulation neared its end.
Countless heavenly thunders almost blasted through the entire Giant Liang Mountain.
The mid-mountain area had become a sea of thunder pools, where nothing could be seen.
Only waves of terrifying destructive aura could be felt.
With the final 81st thunder strike, the tribulation ended.
The thunderclouds dispersed, revealing the starry sky.
Dust rose across Giant Liang Mountain, with faint flickers of lightning dancing.
The demons hurriedly looked on seriously.
Had the tribulation succeeded? Was he still alive?
Standing midair, Gu Xiquan furrowed his brow and swung his wide sleeves.
Suddenly, a strong wind rose, instantly blowing away the dust.
Giant Liang Mountain looked like a huge cavern, a vast space blasted out by heavenly thunder.
And the monkey demon Ye Yu still stood there.
His figure now taller and straighter; the tufts of hair at his temples had completely vanished.
Fully humanized, no longer bearing any monkey demon traits—
Wait, why was there a tail?
There hadn’t been a tail before—how did a monkey tail appear after tribulating?
Seeing this, the demons were all puzzled.
Gu Xiquan paid no mind to tails and barked sharply, “You bastard monkey demon, tell me where you’ve bound my wife!”
This was a preemptive strike to place Ye Yu in the position of an enemy rather than an adulterer.
That way, Gu Xiquan wouldn’t lose so much face.
But to be honest, this guy was undeniably handsome, and Baiyang had good taste.
Had she forgotten their sworn oaths?
And you monkey demon—she’s a rabbit, what can you really do?
You terrible fellow!
Having just completed tribulation, Ye Yu felt utterly refreshed.
Counting the tribulations in his dream, he could claim to have survived about twenty tribulations.
What was near-death thunder tribulation to others was like an old friend to him.
Yet this tribulation in the demon world felt especially pleasant.
As if a seal on his body had been lifted—light and easy.
Before he could carefully study the changes on his body, a roar sounded.
Ye Yu turned his head and froze.
It was his first time seeing Gu Xiquan, Demon King of Giant Liang Mountain.
He never imagined a dog demon, after becoming human-shaped, could look so dog-like!
Not just demon traits, but the face shape—
Skin and bones, narrow face—that was classic Xiquan’s look.
Besides that, his body was extremely slender, standing like a stick.
At this moment, Ye Yu’s mind immediately recalled a loli voice.
“Can you handle this, Xiquan?”
Ye Yu could easily answer.
“No, absolutely not!”
With such looks, his special abilities must be disappointing.
Perhaps that’s why the cat-girl Shierou sought the wolf demon in the first place.
Seeing Ye Yu silent, Gu Xiquan’s anger grew.
“What’s going on?”
“Are you thinking about a reasonable explanation?”
“No need!”
“Better to say nothing at all!”
Gu Xiquan snorted coldly and said, “Since you won’t speak, I’ll sever your demon body and extract your soul!”
The next moment,
The surrounding demon power suddenly boiled.
Gu Xiquan howled at the bright moon,
“Heavenly Dog Devours Demon!”
A gigantic spectral dog head appeared above Ye Yu, suddenly opening its mouth and swallowing him whole.
Meanwhile, Gu Xiquan’s hands continuously changed Dao seals,
Trying to completely refine Ye Yu.
Honestly, he wasn’t worried about Ye Yu causing trouble.
After all, he was a late Ascension Realm great demon, completely crushing Ye Yu’s realm.
He just wanted a swift victory—kill this monkey demon quickly, then find that shameless Baiyang.
Ask what she was unsatisfied with, why she sought a monkey demon.
However, before Gu Xiquan could complete the refining technique,
A burst of black flames suddenly rose, completely burning the huge dog head phantom.
Nearby, Gu Xiquan was hit by backlash from the spell, coughing up blood.
His eyes toward Ye Yu were filled with shock.
