The only thing he could see was fog. It was only after walking for a while that scenery began to appear. Bai Yang found himself on what appeared to be a mountain. He was surrounded by tall trees, and large mountains towered in the distance. Bai Yang guessed that there was nothing but fog within a ten-mile radius. The Demon King put the passage-way entrance in a very safe place.
As soon as they arrived, a few figures emerged from the forest. All of them wore black cloaks that shadowed their faces, hiding their identity. When those people saw Luo Jian Feng and Bai Yang, they all clasped their fists, knelt, and yelled in unison. “My Lord.”
Their voices were extremely respectful.
Bai Yang looked over the group and recognized that all of them were Demons, except for two Humans. To have gained Luo Jian Feng’s trust, these people must have done some horrible things. After all, Luo Jian Feng from the novel was very cunning.
Luo Jian Feng nodded and raised his hand to invite the people rise to their feet. After getting up, they looked at Bai Yang curiously.
Bai Yang wore a cold and proud expression. Sometimes, being cold, arrogant, or emotionless could be the best protective mask.
“This is Lord Xie.” Luo Jian Feng introduced Bai Yang to the group, and they responded by clasping their hands and announcing with respect: “My Lord.”
Bi Yang acted high and mighty by nodding his head slightly, and not saying anything. It would be fine as long as he could maintain a ‘you may only look from a distance’ air.
The more he said, the more wrong he would be. Revealing too much would cause consequences he couldn’t handle.
“Since we’re already here, and it isn’t too late, let’s begin the mission.” Bai Yang said in a deep voice while asking Xiao Ling in his mind: “How am I doing?”
“Very good Sir, please keep it up!” Xiao Ling responded positively.
Bai Yang was relieved to hear it.
“Lord Xie, the Hidden Flower Mirage has begun with a total of two hundred sixty three participants. They have all entered the mirage. Do not fear, Lord Xie. We’ve made arrangements, so we will only need to kill our way inside when the time is right.”

Although Bai Yang already knew about the plot, and the book also described Xie Ze Tian’s participation in the massacre, in his heart, he had no desire to kill anybody. Thus, he asked without thinking, “Why do we need to kill everyone? We only need to kill the Son of the Seven Stars. If we start killing everyone, it will alarm them, and it will be more difficult to reach him.”
Oeb Aljc Mfcu rjlv, “Tbe jgf mbggfma, Obgv Wlf, tbkfnfg, sbeg mbcmierlbc lr yjrfv bc atf jrrewqalbc atja atfs klii xcbk ktb lr jaajmxlcu.

Hearing this, Bai Yang automatically said, “But killing so many people is unnecessary.”
After he finished speaking, he felt immediate regret. Xie Ze Tian would definitely never say such a thing. The real Xie Ze Tian would only feel excitement when discussing murder.
Xiao Ling said in his mind: “Sir, Xie Ze Tian wouldn’t say such a thing, so please accept your punishment.”
Just as Bai Yang was about to take back his words, there was a sound of lightning from his scalp that ran downwards. A fierce pain started at his scalp and spread out all over his body. In just moments, Bai Yang couldn’t hear anything and black spots bloomed in his vision.
Luo Jian Feng narrowed his fox-like eyes as he looked up and down at Bai Yang.
After a long while, he said, “Lord Xie, you surprise me. I didn’t expect Lord Xie to be so kind to humans and care so much for their warriors.”
Bai Yang was shocked in heart and mind, but he withstood the pain of the jolt to explain: “I’m only concerned that too much activity will cause them to raise their defenses.”
He also didn’t know whether Luo Jian Feng listened or not, but he laughed and said, “Lord Xie, you worry too much.”
What else could Bai Yang say? He could only snap his mouth shut like a quail and not speak again. The more he said, the more wrong he would be. If he said something wrong again, another thunderbolt would strike him. It was enough to make someone depressed.
Luo Jian Feng wasn’t interested in understanding what Bai Yang was trying to say. That was natural, of course, since they had known each other for so many years, and Xie Ze Tian’s behavior hadn’t changed. Even if Bai Yang said something inappropriate, Luo Jian Feng wouldn’t pay much attention
Afterwards, Bai Yang didn’t say much. If there was a question with a way to answer concisely, then he would use that concise answer. It continued like that until the Hidden Flower Mirage began.
Luo Jian Feng’s identity in the Human Realm was as the disciple of a Soaring Clouds Sect’s Elder. The Elder was already under his control, and had become his puppet. That Elder just so happened to be one of the hosts of the Hidden Flower Mirage. Luo Jian Feng had already infiltrated by using the influence of that Elder, and even had a presence among the other cultivators. Once the order was made, everyone in the mirage would be trapped there. Not a trace would remain of those who were killed. Escaping was impossible.
Against such thorough planning, the new disciple — the Male Lead — was unlikely to survive. However, because he was the Male Lead, he had the power of the protagonist aura. The book described that he was kicked off a cliff which seemed to lead to an abyss. In the eyes of others, there was simply no way he could have survived the fall. The Male Lead fell, but didn’t die. Not only did he survive, but he also discovered the book’s biggest golden finger, the Dragon Blade.
There were more than two hundred people in the mirage, but he was the only survivor. Therefore, when he resurfaced, he caught the attention of people who believed his survival and the death of hundreds couldn’t be a coincidence.
Bai Yang got Xiao Ling to read through that part for him so he could prepare for what would happen next.
It was his first time meeting the Male Lead, so he felt a little nervous. The fate of the Male Lead depended on his return to the real world, so Bai Yang’s purpose was to protect the protagonist and help him get the Dragon Blade.
On the day the Hidden Flower Mirage began, Bai Yang was already inside the mirage thanks to Luo Jian Feng’s connections. There was a reason why the Demon King chose Xie Ze Tian to help Luo Jian Feng. Luo Jian Feng was a prominent character in the Human Realm, so it would be inconvenient for him to act directly. He needed someone to do the dirty work, and that someone was Xie Ze Tian.
One in the light and the other in the dark. They would flawlessly complete the Demon King of Eternal Night’s mission.
The Hidden Flower Mirage was a small world teeming with monsters. However, they were all low level, and the world inside was expansive. All kinds of arrays and obstacles had been designed inside, so it was a perfect place for experimentation. It was an ideal training ground for those who had a strong foundation in their martial art.
Bai Yang hid in the branches of the forest, staring at the ground in silence. He was with Luo Jian Feng’s subordinates, the real murderers.
Bai Yang didn’t want to kill people, but that didn’t mean he was enough of a saint to stop others from killing. All he could do was to try and keep his hands clean as best he could.
Even if he didn’t lift a finger, no one would criticize him. Luo Jian Feng wasn’t his superior. The big boss always stays behind the front line and wouldn’t casually attack. The squad of small fry would go up first. It was only during a critical stage that the big boss would step up.
At that moment, Xie Ze Tian was the big boss. There was no concern that he would help the humans.
Once the participants entered the Hidden Flower Mirage, they would be scattered all over the place. More than two hundred people would be spread out so that each area only had two to three people, seven or eight at max.
Then, the attack would begin.
Bai Yang’s hearing was extremely sensitive. It wasn’t long before began to hear sounds of beating and murder accompanied by devastating screams. The up-and-comers had some talent, but they were in a new environment filled with traps and monsters. When they were caught by surprise and ambushed, many were unable to save themselves.
Following the original script, Bai Yang remembered that the Male Lead would fall off a cliff. As soon as he entered the mirage, he used magic to scan the area and found the place the Male Lead fell. He proceeded to wait there patiently for his prey.
Sure enough, after half an hour or so, four people appeared from the forest.
It was a group of three men and one girl; that girl should be Miss Li, the Male Lead’s Supporting Female Character. That male teenager next to her should be the Male Lead.
Bai Yang lowered his head to size him up. The Male Lead was still a teenager, about sixteen or seventeen. He had handsome features, long, slim limbs, and a great body.
As the protagonist of a yy novel, he had to be extremely handsome, talented and boyish, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to attract so many women to stay by his side. Even if he currently had a humble rank and wasn’t very strong, he still had a hint of an overbearing temperament. In short, it would make others feel that he was different and capable. Just take Miss Li as an example, she also took a fancy to his handsome looks and unique attitude.
Bai Yang had been feeling a little excited to see the Male Lead, but now that he saw him, he felt a little disappointed. In the TV series, the most handsome actor was the Male Lead, and supporting characters came after. If the first person he saw had been the Male Lead, perhaps he would be marveling at his looks and demeanor, but, unfortunately, the first person he’d seen was the Demon King of Eternal Night.
Setting aside the Demon King’s terrible personality for a moment, he would absolutely decimate the Male Lead in terms of looks and temperament.
When he laid eyes on the Male Lead and saw that he was only a normal and talented teenager, Bai Yang, who was full of expectations, felt a little disappointed. However, he adjusted his mindset and prepared for the next part of the story. Who cares what the Male Lead looked like, he was still the most important person in his world, his most precious treasure. Rather, letting him ascend was the most important thing.
Miss Li, who was injured, leaned on the Male Lead to continue forward. The other two disciples ran beside them, using their knives to protect themselves.
“Have they caught up yet?” one of the disciples asked nervously.
The other disciples looked behind panicky and didn’t see anything. “I don’t think they’ve caught up to us.”
Hearing his words, the three disciples sighed in relief, including the Male Lead. Miss Li sat down in a flash. “I can’t run anymore, I can’t!”
As the first Supporting Female Character who liked the Male Lead, she was naturally pretty, as well. Her eyebrows were slight curves and her skin was fair. In short, she was worthy of her identity as a Female Support. Of course, her personality wasn’t as gentle and considerate as the heroine. She still has a few flaws.
“Young Miss, are you okay?” The Male Lead asked, worried.
Young Miss Li glanced at him and pouted, “Do I look okay?”
Its finally hereeeee!!! But there is no butt grabbing ( ˘•ω•˘ )
yes yess Mr. Bai, our Demon king is the best bachelor coughbuttcough ever existed!!
Thanks for the chapter

[“Young Miss, are you okay?” The Male Lead asked, worried.
Young Miss Li glanced at him and pouted, “Do I look okay?”]

I’m so so so looking forward to Bai YangXprotagonist! although… it’s rly disappointing that this leader of YY harem looks worse than demon king (or is this BY’s bias???? xD)
Uh-oh…. The weak harem member is pulling everyone down. Oh well. Time to slaughter!
Thanks for the chapter (●´∀｀●)
And here it comes!
I don’t like xiao ling.. it’s useless and only dugs more pits for mc
So far, Xiao Ling doesn’t seem to have much choice but to be useless… the MC’s main trait seems to be an impressive capacity for stupidity. Not much to work with there. The ‘server’ is the saving grace so far, since it at least provides a comedic perspective by stating the obvious at the least convenient time.
