Xiao Ling said, “I think he’s angry.”

Bai Yang stubbornly defended himself, “It’s his fault for using too much strength!”

  qN CKb

“Okay, okay, okay, he used too much strength. But now you’ve offended him. What’ll you do if he refuses to heal you now?” Xiao Ling rolled its eyes.

 

Bai Yang deflated at once. “I’ll apologize?”

 

rIzKtm

He paused, before regaining confidence and said, “Why should I apologize? I didn’t do anything wrong!”

 

Bai Yang didn’t think he’d done anything wrong, so why should he bow his head to a mere NPC? He won’t do it even if he’s killed for it. This Young Lord has a temper, too!

  zR2XxD

But after a while….

 

“Fine, I’ll apologize to him.”

  7LTBYo

Xiao Ling: “… Sir, you’re really quite flexible.”

 

Bai Yang pretended to cough in order to not answer. He was worried that the Demon King wouldn’t continue healing him. He wondered how he was going to apologize if the Demon King didn’t come back. However, he soon found his worry was unnecessary, as the Demon King arrived to heal him again the next day. He even became much gentler.

  RmAZ9H

Bai Yang didn’t dare to randomly bark, and obediently allowed himself to be treated.

Finally, after enduring it for another seven days, Bai Yang’s cultivation had not only recovered, but even improved by a level.

  xKYi4

When he told the Demon King he wanted influence and power, it looks like he was beginning to fulfill Bai Yang’s wish.

 

For example, the Sun Sky Pill’s refining method was extremely tedious, and its success rate was very low. It was a top pill for purifying one’s cultivation, and the Demon King gave it to Bai Yang without even blinking an eye. It was really generous of him.

  FnKRdH

However, Bai Yang wasn’t seeking to improve his cultivation. If he had a  choice, he’d rather the Male Lead, Zhou Ying, raise a level in his cultivation and ascend as quickly as possible….

 

Right!

  Hh1SzT

Bai Yang suddenly thought that if the Male Lead had the Sun Sky Pill, his cultivation would improve by leaps and bounds!

 

Rather than waste the Sun Sky Pill on himself, he might as well give it to the Male Lead.

  Rv8ETS

Bai Yang began to get excited.

 

Originally, he was supposed to leave the Palace of Eternal Darkness when his cultivation recovered, but Bai Yang didn’t return to his manor. Instead, he went to the main hall of the Palace of Eternal Darkness.

  0TusYK

The Demon King of Eternal Night wasn’t there. After asking around, he found out the Demon King went to the Clear Wind Palace to greet the FireThorn City envoys.

Under the protection of Zhou Shuo, the FireThorn envoys had finally arrived at the Palace of Eternal Darkness. Naturally, the Demon King wanted a meeting with them.

  vGZKCW

Of course, the Demon King didn’t want Bai Yang to bother him. Bai Yang waited outside for an hour until their meeting ended and Bai Yang was able to enter the main hall to see the Demon King.

Bai Yang didn’t care if he was being treated differently. It was good for Bai Yang if the Demon King wasn’t thinking of weird things.

  Z zUyb

It wasn’t like he could say, ‘Almighty Demon King, do you have any Sun Sky Pills left? I want some more.’, so he opted to say, “These past few days your subordinate has bothered Your Highness. Not only has my cultivation been restored, but it’s improved. Your subordinate has specifically come to thank Your Highness.”

 

“There’s no need.” The Demon King’s expression was light. “You lost your cultivation in order to save me. I had to help you get it back. There’s no need for thanks.”

  dT5YQh

Uh?

 

You won’t give me even a little face?

  7qLArU

“You gave him a green hat, slept with his servant, and teased him. It’s a miracle he didn’t kill you, and now you want him to give you face?” Xiao Ling said.

“Can you stop mentioning that?” Bai Yang was speechless.

  wfUMto

“Fine, I won’t mention it again.”

 

Bai Yang stood silently in place.

  x9dpCV

The Demon King’s didn’t raise his face. “What else do you have to say?”

 

Bai Yang thought he’d already expressed his desire for power and influence and made the Demon King unhappy. Since he’s already offended, Bai Yang might as well offend him to the end.

  ha3IQu

With his heart set, Bai Yang walked in front of the Demon King’s desk and kneeled down. “Your Highness, your subordinate has two matters to ask about.”

 

The Demon King’s beautiful eyebrow raised slightly. “What is it?”

  K2S4FC

“Your Highness has promised me power and influence, does Your Highness still mean that?” Bai Yang boldly said.

 

Xiao Ling said in his mind, “Sir, you’re crazy. He’s already angry enough, yet you’re here still making requests. Aren’t you afraid he’ll kill you?”

  AcwFzJ

“I don’t think he will. If he wanted to kill me, he would have done so already. Why would he drag it out to now?”

 

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

After all the time they’d spent together, Bai Yang thought the Demon King respected his subordinates more than he thought and was not unreasonable.

  gH7LRK

And there was another point. Although strange, the Demon King had a trait that even he may not understand — kindness.

 

It was strange to describe the big boss of the Demon Realm as “kind”, but after Bai Yang spent so much time with him, he really believed the Demon King had some kindness and tolerance in his heart.

  mNdQw0

He was both good and evil at the same time, and full of contradictions. It made him temperamental, fickle, and difficult to understand. In short, he was just a weirdo.

 

That the Demon King was kind was also why Bai Yang dared to be so bold.

  mXwoeS

Sure enough, the Demon King laughed coldly. “Of course I’ll keep my promises. Tell me, which do you want? Power or influence?”

 

Bai Yang knelt to the ground and said, “First of all, I implore your Highness to continue giving me the Sun Sky Pill.”

  DjIFiN

“I promise you, I will. What’s the second request?” The Demon King said without hesitation.

 

“For the second request, this subordinate is willing to act as your Highness’s pawn to return to the Human realm, find the other three Boundary Pillars, and complete your Highness’s aspirations of connecting the two realms.”

  cYGJ1K

The Demon King of Eternal Night smiled. “You’re willing to go to the Human Realm for me? Just say it, what do you really want?”

The current Demon King no longer believed that Xie Ze Tian was selflessly doing things on his behalf.

  7QTImJ

Of course, he knew everyone who worked for him was selfish. He accepted that he had to keep one eye open and one eye closed at all times.

 

He knew no one was perfect, and it was impossible for someone to be completely selfless. Xie Ze Tian was loyal to him to get power and influence, and there was nothing wrong with that.

  fNE4uH

But he was still angry.

 

He also didn’t understand why he was so angry. Selfishness was clearly an unchangeable principle.

  Qg8xIq

The Demon King’s discomfort made him irritated. He felt annoyed and perplexed every time he saw Bai Yang, and couldn’t wait for him to disappear from view.

 

It just so happened that he’d requested to go to the Human Realm. By agreeing to that, everyone would be satisfied.

  z8vZK1

Bai Yang was puzzled that the Demon King asked him again. He really only had two requests in order to bring the Sun Sky Pill to the Male Lead. What did the Demon King mean?

 

“Xiao Ling, what does the Demon King mean?”

  qw9X6D

“He doesn’t believe that you would go to the Human Realm in order to help him achieve his goal, and thinks you have ulterior motives.”

Bai Yang became nervous. “He knows my goal?”

  7zua U

“You’re overthinking it. It’s impossible for him to know. Think about what he wants to express again.”

 

Bai Yang pondered for a moment, but he still didn’t understand. Yet, since the Demon King brought it up himself, there was no reason for him to not accept it and answer honestly. Bai Yang replied, “Your Highness, I want to be able to act freely in the Human Realm.”

  UkFYgo

The Demon King’s expression revealed that he believed he’d figured out what Bai Yang was really after. Bai Yang, however, had no idea. The Demon King’s mind was very weird and hard to decipher.

 

“Okay. After you get to the Human Realm, I’ll send a Dark Guard Squad to be under your command. You no longer have to go through Luo Jian Feng. How’s that? Are you satisfied?”

  o1eT8d

Bai Yang froze for a moment, before saying, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

 

If he didn’t have to answer to Luo Jian Feng, and could move freely, it would be much more convenient.

  Klinkh

Now that he had what he wanted, staying any longer would make him an eyesore. Bai Yang said, “Your subordinate will take his leave.”

 

After he finished speaking, Bai Yang backed out.

  BQGx S

The large hall felt empty all at once.

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Sure enough, he isn’t doing it for me, but for power.

  quQJ9S

The Demon King bowed his head and continued to write. The words he wrote were messy with an air of violence.

 

As soon as he walked out of the Palace of Eternal Darkness, Bai Yang was anxious to get to the passageway. Once the passageway was open, he walked through to the Human Realm.

  Uaun o

When he arrived in the Human Realm, it was raining. The rain was light and soft, nourishing all things below heaven.

 

In the Demon Realm, there was little sunlight and rain. The climate was windy with demonic tribulations. In a place like that, it made sense that only a pitiful amount of vegetation grew.

  hVyeb7

The Human Realm was lush. There were dense forests everywhere, their leaves a lovely green. Bai Yang thought he preferred the Human Realm’s environment. If people were to stay in such a dark and depressing place as the Demon Realm, then they’d probably be lonely.

 

Lonely….

  rYeI q

The Demon King of Eternal Night stayed in the Demon Realm for four thousand years, was he lonely?

 

“Xie Ze Tian.” The Dark Guard who followed him to the Human Realm stepped forward, saying “This subordinate was ordered to help Lord Xie find the Boundary Pillars. While in the Human Realm, this subordinate will follow Lord Xie’s every command.”

  glycVm

Bai Yang looked back and hummed in acknowledgment.

Before he crossed over, he’d asked Xiao Ling to look through the contents of Wild Wind for information regarding the Boundary Pillars. Xiao Ling told him the location of the other three Boundary Pillars.

  KC ubq

As long as Bai Yang ordered it, those people would be able to reach the three locations and destroy the Boundary Pillars. However, it was clear Bai Yang couldn’t do that. First of all, if he shattered all of the Boundary Pillars right away and completes his mission, then he’d have to return to the Demon Realm. His purpose in coming to the Human Realm was to find the Male Lead, so he could increase his cultivation faster. This would take time, so he couldn’t go back right away. Secondly, if he destroyed the Boundary Pillars and the Demon Army advanced, the cultivation world could be caught off-guard, and possibly destroyed. At that time, the Male Lead’s cultivation would still be low and he would have trouble protecting himself. Third, and most importantly, if he destroys the Boundary Pillars too quickly, the System would ping his existence as a bug. He would then be deleted, resulting in an instant game over.

 

Therefore, even if he knew the location of the three Boundary Pillars, he couldn’t show that he knew. On the contrary, he had to hide that he knew, waiting for the right time to release information piece by piece to complete his task.

  edbwIE

He assigned missions to his Dark Guards. Their missions sent them to search in the direction of the Boundary Pillars. Whether or not they’d be able to find it was a whole other matter.

 

After he finished assigning missions to the Dark Guards, he was left by himself. The Demon King gave him permission to act freely, and he no longer had to report back to Luo Jian Feng, so he set off for the Soaring Clouds Sect.

  aDcWB2

Last time, he created a big fuss in the Soaring Clouds Sect, so they’d strengthened their guard. He couldn’t rush up the mountain to appraise the situation, so he went to the small town at the foot of the mountain to find out the truth.

 

To get information, then he naturally needed to go to a restaurant.

  cOKg5i

When Bai Yang arrived at the town, the first thing he did was find a clothing shop and change. The clothes he wore were too extravagant and glamorous, too eye-catching. Xie Ze Tian’s appearance was already handsome, but coupled with the complementary clothing, he was even more handsome and striking.

 

Thus, in order to avoid being conspicuous, he had to change.

  35nS N

The store owner, seeing his extraordinary aura and handsome appearance, immediately knew that he must be wealthy, so he hurried forward to serve Bai Yang.

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Honored guest, our store has all kinds of styles. What are you looking for?”

  A0ys9z

Bai Yang stepped forward and glanced at him, before spotting a blue robe hanging off one of the racks at the side. When he saw the robes, Bai Yang suddenly remembered first meeting the Demon King. On that day, the Demon King had been wearing a cyan robe without any patterning. He was standing on the pavilion with the wind fiercely blowing his hair and robes. That scene was unforgettable.

 

Unexpectedly, Bai Yang pointed to the cyan robe and said, “I’ll just take this one.”
