Chapter 274 The Old Father's Fury
Fortunately, after everyone analyzed the situation, they concluded that the timeline of the Tower of the Abyss had become disordered, and Lan Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, where are you now? Yunxi hasn't come back either. We were almost convinced that you two had a secret meeting and went out to play," Wu Tianya said with a smile.
Of course, their main concern over the past three years has been that the two guys might be in danger, but now that they're safe, there's no need to worry about that anymore.
"Yunxi is right next to me. Didn't she tell you when she came?" Lanyue looked confused.
For a moment, both sides fell silent.
Yunxi coughed, a little embarrassed: "I was too anxious at the time and forgot to find them first. I took the teleportation array directly from the Land of Inheritance to the Demon Realm."
Lan Yue was both amused and touched; this was the female lead! She truly was her favorite daughter!
The little black ball of fluff proudly puffed out its cheeks.
"Wait, what did Lan Yue just say? You guys are really in the Demon Realm?" The other group of friends widened their eyes.
This was something they had never wanted to think about deeply, but it turned out to be true!
"We're doomed! The Demon Realm is so dangerous, how are you going to get back?!"
"I noticed that Lan Yue and Yun Xi's voices sound thinner. Were you injured in the Demon Realm, or have you been hungry for a long time?" The friends were all very distressed and felt extremely sorry for each other.
As the senior brother, Li Bai felt extremely guilty, feeling that he had not taken good care of his two junior sisters.
"Hiccup, what did you guys just say?" Lan Yue ate a lot of delicious red fruits and was so full that she burped several times.
I must say, the red berries specially supplied by the Demon King's Palace taste absolutely amazing! It's only because I follow the Sixth Prince around every day that I can eat and drink here for free; otherwise, I would never have had the chance to taste them.
"Yueyue, have you gained a lot of weight? You look much rounder." Yunxi said tactfully, looking at Lanyue, who was a whole size bigger than herself.
"It's alright. I'm already quite round, so being a little rounder won't hurt. Yunxi, you should eat some too. I feel like my internal strength has increased after eating this fruit. Wouldn't it be nice if we enjoyed the delicious treat while improving our cultivation?"
Yunxi thought that made sense. Since it was provided by the Demon King's Palace and didn't cost any spirit stones, she could eat as much as she could and try to eat the Demon King's Palace out of house and home. So she joined in and ate there.
However, his teammates on the other side fell silent again.
"No, we didn't say anything." The group of friends were bewildered and almost questioned their existence.
How come they're all suffering here all day, while Lan Yue and Yun Xi went to the Demon Realm and are eating so well, they've even gained weight? How much did they have to eat to achieve that?
Lan Yue had no idea that her friends on the other side had already imagined her as a chubby little boy.
She originally wanted to tell her friends about her grand plan, such as overthrowing the Demon King's Palace and causing all the Demon Kings to fight among themselves. But after thinking about it carefully, she realized she couldn't easily reveal it and make her friends worry. What if the elders also found out about this? Wouldn't they explode and come running over with weapons? That would be chaos.
"Don't worry, we're safe in the Demon Realm for now. We'll be able to go back in another month or two." Lan Yue felt that according to her plan, the Demon King's Palace would be in complete chaos in two months and would definitely be unable to care about the cultivation world. At that time, she could successfully retreat and keep her achievements hidden.
Even though the other team members were a little worried, they had limited mental energy to use for chatting, so they ended the hurried conversation.
Therefore, Lan Yue was completely unaware that as soon as the conversation ended, the tower spirit of the Tower of Abyss broke free of its restraints and sent the message out. Not only the Southern Spirit Sect, but even the Holy Son of the Northern Ridge knew Lan Yue's location.
In an instant, the elders of the Southern Spirit Sect were so angry that they flew into a rage, and the Holy Son of the Northern Ridge was even more furious, wishing he could rush into the Demon Realm on the spot and snatch back the goddaughter he had arranged to marry.
However, no matter how angry they are, they need a concrete plan. Otherwise, rushing in directly will definitely alert the demons and make it even more difficult to rescue them.
Thus, the Supreme Elder, the Holy Son of the Northern Ridge, and the Insect Witch gathered together once again.
What surprised these people, of course, was that the Tengshe Demon Lord and the Fire Phoenix Demon Lord from the Eastern Region had also come.
The Tengshe Demon Lord was dragged here by his wife, who declared that if he didn't bring the person back, then the snake was no longer needed.
Tengshe cried and wailed, wishing he could flood the Demon Realm on the spot.
The arrival of the Fire Phoenix Demon Lord was truly unexpected for everyone in the conference room.
"Holy Son, that one is the newly appointed Fire Phoenix Demon Lord of the Eastern Region. It is said that his father passed away recently and passed on all his power to him. That is why this young Fire Phoenix was able to secure the position of Demon Lord."
"However, this young demon lord is very mysterious. It is said that very few demons in the entire Eastern Region have ever seen him, and no one knows why he suddenly appeared here..."
An official from the sacred site of Beiling secretly communicated with the Holy Son.
The Holy Son of Beiling remained expressionless as he carefully examined the red-haired man opposite him. Although he thought the man was indeed very handsome and quite strong, and would definitely be very resilient, he just couldn't shake the feeling of displeasure.
He didn't know why he was annoyed; he just felt the other person deserved a beating.
Sure enough, the Fire Phoenix descendant arrived and anxiously exclaimed, "Yunxi is also in the Demon Realm! I just sensed her location in the Demon King's Palace!"
Gu Zhuo was extremely anxious. A few days ago, when he sensed the other party's location, he would have had no way to escape if he hadn't been absorbing the power given to him by his father. He almost wanted to run directly to the Demon Realm.
Now that he has just received this power, he couldn't wait to come to the Northern Ridge Holy Land, wanting to ask the Supreme Elder of the Southern Spirit Sect to join him, as this would provide greater security.
I never expected that the Holy Son of the Northern Ridge Holy Land would also be here.
Sure enough, Baili Tusu got angry again upon hearing his words.
"What? My daughter is also in the Demon Realm?"
"What? Yunxi is your daughter?"
Two voices rang out simultaneously in the magnificent hall. The two people belatedly realized what was happening and looked at each other.
Gu Zhuo's forehead was sweating, and he nervously clenched his fingers.
Baili Tusu no longer had so many reservations. He looked at the man in front of him and suddenly realized a very crucial question: "How do you know my daughter's location? Even I don't know!"
Beiling Shengzi, who had been searching for over a hundred years but had only spent a few days with his daughter, felt extremely wronged.
How could he? How could he? He'd only seen his daughter a few times, how could this guy find out her location so easily?
There's a problem, there's definitely a problem, a very serious problem!
The old father was furious.
