Bai Yang felt the pressure around him disappear, and he knew that the crisis had been avoided.
With the crisis over, he couldn’t help but praise his actions thirty-two times.
On one hand, he displayed his loyalty, and on the other, he also found a reason to travel back to the Human Realm.
It was really hitting two birds with one stone! He had his cake, and was eating it, too!
“My Lord, please rest assured. I will bring it to you.”
The Demon King of Eternal Night didn’t say a word, he only stared straight at Bai Yang with his dark eyes. Bai Yang cautiously said: “My Lord, if there isn’t anything else, this subordinate shall take his leave.
It wasn’t clear what the Demon King of Eternal Night was thinking about. His gaze would at one moment be extremely dangerous, and then incredibly clear the next. After a few moments, he waved his hand, gesturing for Bai Yang to leave.
Bai Yang left the Palace of Darkness as though his life depended on it.
It was only after the exited the palace doors that he realized his back was cold. He must have been drenched in cold sweat.
He originally thought staying in the Palace of Darkness would cause less trouble, but he didn’t expect the palace to be even more dangerous. If he knew what was going to happen, he would have gone back to his manor to practice Tai Chi with his courtesans.
Bai Yang walked away, step by step, stomach tense. When his tension finally subsided, he felt that staying the night in the palace was worth it, even if just for an excuse to go back to the Human Realm.
Everything else was fake, only the task was real.
There was only one thing in Bai Yang’s heart— help the Male Lead ascend.
Never mind practicing Tai Chi back at his manor. Since he’d promised to get the Jade Cloud Pearl for the Demon King of Eternal Night, then it must be done. Bai Yang rested for a day or two and, when the passageway finally opened again, he left the Demon Realm.
Once he arrived in the Human Realm, he couldn’t wait to rush towards the Soaring Clouds Sect.
In the plot, when the Male Lead came out of the Hidden Flower Mirage, everyone else had died. Only he had survived, and with a new Dragon Blade in his arsenal. That he was a nobody servant, who not only obtained the Dragon Blade but also survived the massacre, immediately incurred mass suspicion.
Even if the Male Lead opened up his mouth and said that everything was caused by an outside force, no one would believe him. The demons had removed all traces of their presence. Thus, the Male Lead was unable to wash the suspicion off of him.
Many people died, and they were all young talents from multiple factions. These young talents, who were all cultivated with many resources and materials, had just up and died. Naturally, the factions all wanted an official statement. Thus, the only surviving person, who happened to be from the Soaring Cloud Sect, had to offer an explanation.
The Male Lead couldn’t prove that he was innocent, but the sects couldn’t prove that he killed two hundred people, either. However, due to the situation, the Soaring Clouds Sect decided to publicly execute him. Of course, Luo Jian Feng had been the one to suggest it.

The Soaring Cloud Sect couldn’t continue to involve themselves with such an unlucky teenager. If they continued investigating, they might drag themselves down into the Male Lead’s misfortune.

Once Bai Yang heard that the Male Lead had already been tied to the Heavenly Execution Stage, he wondered. How could it be? Doesn’t this mean certain death?
The Heavenly Execution Stage was where the Soaring Clouds Sect punished criminals. There was a defensive array protecting it, and multiple elders were present during the execution. It was impossible for criminals to escape.
No matter how you look at it, the Male Lead’s fate could only be death.
But…
“Xiao Ling, I seem to remember that the Male Lead doesn’t die. How did he escape the Heavenly Execution Stage?” Bai Yang asked Xiao Ling in his mind.
Xiao Ling said: “According to the original work, a mysterious black-cloaked man appeared at the Heavenly Execution Stage, causing chaos. Then, he kidnapped the Male Lead, so he was able to survive.”
“Why did he kidnap the Male Lead?” Bai Yang asked.
“Because the Male Lead owns the Dragon Blade. If the owner dies, the Dragon Blade can change hands. This is why many people wish for his death.”
So that was why.
“Then who’s the black-cloaked man?”
“Wait, let me check.” After a moment, Xiao Ling said, “It seems to be an insignificant character. He kidnapped the Male Lead to kill him, but the Male Lead ends up killing him, instead.”
“That doesn’t make sense. There are so many people in the Soaring Clouds Sect, as well as many other martial artists present. Even if he wanted to steal the Dragon Blade, this is a terrible place to do it. Doesn’t he understand that he’d become a target?”
“But, if he doesn’t appear, the Male Lead will die.”
Bai Yang was speechless. “So this person’s only purpose is to save the Male Lead?”
Xiao Ling thought for a moment and then said: “That should be the case.”
Fine. Even though there were holes in the logic, as long as the Male Lead didn’t die, it would all be fine.
Bai Yang hid in a mountain near the Heavenly Execution Stage. His magic was strong and his eyesight sharp. Even if he was far away, he’d still be able to see what was happening on the Heavenly Execution Stage.
Since there was someone else there to save the Male Lead, he wouldn’t have to do anything. He could just patiently wait on the mountain.
At the Heavenly Execution Stage, the Male Lead had already been tied to the Rack of Punishment. The Rack of Discipline was very tall, about ten feet, and was shaped like a door. The Male Lead, bound by rope, was placed inside the Rack of Discipline. The person carrying him walked away and the Male Lead’s body was drawn upward.
Looking upon the scene, Bai Yang knew what was going to happen next. From that door, a swath of dark blue swords would fly out, and the Male Lead would be cut into pieces instantly.
Oh my god, it’s already gone this far! Where’s the black-cloaked man?
If he was late even by a minute, the Male Lead would be cut into pork belly slices and then the world will collapse.
“Xiao Ling, do you think that person will appear?”
Xiao Ling didn’t reply.
“Xiao Ling?”
Xiao Ling said in a small voice: “Sir, I can’t confirm anything.”
“Why?” Bai Yang was shocked.
“The system, by default, will try to ensure that the Male Lead and important characters don’t die, but that doesn’t mean it can’t make mistakes.”
Bai Yang felt a little dizzy. “You mean there’s a possibility that the Male Lead will die?”
“Yes. Not only is the Male Lead able to die, but you could also able to die. As for what happens after death, I’m also not sure. However, one thing is certain: if your mission isn’t completed, you will die in reality.”
“…” Fuck!
Bai Yang lifted his head and saw, at the far end of the Heavenly Execution Stage, a faint blue light. It was the signal that the blue swords were going to appear.
At that critical moment, Bai Yang used magic to wrap himself in a mist of darkness. It was similar to what the Demon King of Eternal Night wore the night his qi deviated, so other people couldn’t see the figure inside.
Then, with all his might, he slammed into an enchantment next to the mountain. It was an enchantment that surrounded the whole of the Soaring Clouds Sect. It shook for a moment, and the entire Soaring Clouds Sect shook with it.
The Heavenly Execution Stage’s activity came to a halt.
“What happened?”
The people on the Heavenly Execution Stage shook like crazy. Some of the less-skilled individuals even fell to the ground.
“Someone destroyed the mountain enchantment!” the elders of the Soaring Clouds Sect said in a panic.
The mountain enchantment was extremely powerful, not only as a barrier, but also as a symbol of the sect.
Someone was breaking into the Soaring Clouds Sect, and even deliberately broke the mountain enchantment! That meant someone was waging war on the Soaring Clouds Sect! With the enemy right in front of their eyes, everyone naturally wanted to kill him.
By then, no one cared about the Male Lead hanging on the Rack of Discipline anymore.
Bai Yang slammed the mountain enchantment again and the whole Soaring Clouds Sect shook once more.
“What villain dare break into the Soaring Clouds Sect!” A few elders reacted the fastest. They flew into the air with a loud bang, and headed towards Bai Yang.
Bai Yang darted from the mountain and flew toward the Male Lead hanging on the Heavenly Execution Stage.
With his whole figure covered in a dark mist that flickered like fire, Bai Yang deliberately manipulated his voice. “Give me the Jade Cloud Pearl and I might spare your lives.”
The words were arrogant, domineering and dignified, but in reality, Bai Yang felt like his heart was going to collapse.
“Xiao Ling, why do you think there are some people are so stupid that they’d try to take on the all of the Soaring Cloud Sect by themselves? Is Xie Ze Tian skilled enough to deal with these people? Can he escape?”
“Sir, what’s the point of asking that now? You’ve already started. The most you can do is cry while you try to get through it.”
“Xiao Ling…”
“Sir, you’re doing very well! You should have courage this big! The reason for a man to live is to do something earth-shattering like this!”
“No, Xiao Ling, I never wanted to do something earth-shattering like this. I just want to go back and acting like the prince’s brother comfortably, where I can play around and wait for death.”
“This is why Sir’s father sent you to this world.”
“Please don’t say anymore.”
Xiao Ling said: “Sir, it was you who took the initiative to break the Soaring Clouds Sect’s mountain enchantment.”
“I was forced!” Bai Yang almost started crying.
Xiao Ling comforted him: “Don’t be scared. You’ve already done it, what’s the use of being scared now? Among the most successful entrepreneurs, who didn’t just single-mindedly move forward? Don’t be scared. It’s only like this that you’ll become a successful manager.”
Bai Yang refused to listen to Xiao Ling’s nonsense.
