Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress-Chapter 144

Chapter 144 - The First Demon Realm Meeting in the Mortal Realm

Outskirts of Nanli City

The forest was deep and silent, the moonlight filtering through the leaves and casting dappled shadows on the ground.

Yue Qingyou, standing tall and elegant, was bathed in the moonlight, her serene and indifferent face gazing forward.

Silhouettes stood amidst the surrounding darkness of the trees.

Ye Tianshen, representing the Demon Realm, along with a group of Demon Gods, Legion Commanders, Shadow Guard Leaders, and others, all waited quietly in this place.

Even Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Cai Se were present.

Everyone here was a high-ranking member of the Demon Realm, with the lowest cultivation level being that of an Immortal Venerable.

The three of them, with their Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation, stood out awkwardly in the crowd...

They hadn’t expected to be fortunate enough to attend such a meeting...

Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Cai Se huddled together, obediently finding a corner to squat in. They smiled awkwardly and nodded at the Demon Gods and Commanders around them, offering a greeting...

However, the demons around them who were looking at them either had fierce expressions or cold demeanors.

This made the three of them feel that everyone around them was terrifying...

They wanted to go home...

"The Demon Lord will arrive shortly."

"The purpose of gathering everyone here today is to hold a routine meeting for discussion."

"You can bring up any issues or suggestions you’ve encountered during this time."

Yue Qingyou’s beautiful eyes swept over the crowd as she spoke calmly.

She would hold such discussion meetings every once in a while, similar to the Demon God Conferences.

This allowed her to stay informed about the specific situations in both the Demon Realm and Nanli City.

This was the first Demon Realm meeting held in the mortal realm.

"Left Guardian, what should we do about the beef balls being sold out again?"

"We’ve practically sold all the beef in the city..."

The one asking the question was a handsome young man with short hair, holding a long halberd in his arms.

He was Luosha, the seventh-ranked Demon God in the Demon Realm.

However, his current identity in the city was the owner of a butcher shop selling handmade beef balls...

Thanks to his exceptional meat-pounding skills, the beef balls he made were firm and springy, deeply loved by many in the city.

His business could be said to be second only to Ye Tianshen’s barbecue stall.

Every day, as soon as he opened his stall, his beef balls would be sold out in no time.

There simply weren’t enough to meet the demand...

"If you run out of meat, contact the Qi family and let them handle the supply."

"Both the little princess and Madam have praised the taste of your beef balls."

"You need to maintain a steady supply at all times."

Yue Qingyou glanced at Luosha and said sternly.

"Really?!"

"Then I’ll go contact the Qi family tomorrow, no! I’ll go right away!"

As soon as Luosha heard that the little princess and Madam liked his beef balls, he immediately perked up, clenching his fists in excitement.

The others around cast envious glances at him...

To receive praise and favor from Madam and the little princess, what an honor!

With Luosha taking the lead, the others from the Demon Realm also started to raise their own opinions and questions:

"Left Guardian, I want to change my identity and also sell food or something, is that okay?"

"Allowed."

"Left Guardian, can I hug the little princess?"

"Not allowed."

"What about a kiss?"

"Not allowed!"

"Left Guardian, I also want to serve Madam and the little princess!"

"Rejected!"

"I want a strand of the little princess’s and Madam’s hair..."

"Rejected!"

"Left Guardian, what should I do if I can’t remember all the rules in the mortal realm...?"

"Learn them!!"

"Left Guardian... uh, what was I going to ask again?"

"Are you asking me?!"

"If you can’t remember, don’t ask! Next!"

Yue Qingyou glared at the crowd, exasperated.

Most of their questions were either incredibly simple or just plain strange.

But she was used to it.

When handling matters in the Demon Realm, there was always a barrage of bizarre questions.

Sometimes they would report to her about losing something, or mention that it was raining, or even ask her what the Demon Lord liked to eat...

Kuang Qiu also raised his hand at this point and shouted,

"Left Guardian! What should I do if I want to kill someone?!"

He couldn’t hold it in anymore!

He, a dignified Demon General, had to run around the city every day, chased by the patrolling guards!

He desperately wanted to smash those people to bits with a single palm!

"Endure it!"

"Do you want to cause trouble for the Demon Lord?!"

Yue Qingyou’s gaze turned cold as she sternly rebuked Kuang Qiu,

"Behave yourself!"

"If you don’t know what to do, learn from Ye Tianshen!"

"If you dare to ruin the Demon Lord’s plans, I’ll make you disappear first!"

"Yes, Left Guardian..."

Seeing Yue Qingyou’s anger, Kuang Qiu quickly lowered his head and retreated obediently behind the others...

The crowd looked at the silent Ye Tianshen, leaning against a tree, with admiration and envy.

His barbecue stall was deeply loved by the little princess, and he had been visited multiple times by the Demon Lord, Madam, and the little princess!

That was an honor no one else had!

Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Cai Se squatted in a corner, silently listening to the conversation among the demons, their eyes darting back and forth.

This Demon Realm meeting was a bit different from what they had imagined...

They even felt like they could step up and say a word or two...

But after some thought, they held back.

Pets didn’t have the right to speak here...

"Shadow, is there anything happening in the Demon Realm?"

After handling the trivial matters in Nanli City, Yue Qingyou’s beautiful eyes looked towards a shadowy figure in the darkness and asked.

A figure cloaked in darkness, its face unseen, stepped out from the shadows.

This was the leader of the Shadow Guards, also the Demon Lord’s Right Guardian, from the Shadow Clan of the Demon Realm.

Born as a shadow, it couldn’t speak, had no face, and no discernible gender.

Although it was the Demon Lord’s Right Guardian, its true strength was unknown, as no one had ever seen it fight.

The only thing known was that it could conceal itself and traverse through darkness, shapeshift into anyone’s appearance, and mimic their mannerisms and voice, almost indistinguishable from the real person.

Before Yue Qingyou left the Demon Realm, she had left it in charge of lurking in the shadows, gathering intelligence, and monitoring any restless individuals.

This time, she had summoned it here to understand the current situation in the Demon Realm while she and the Demon Lord were away.

Shadow knelt on one knee and presented a letter to Yue Qingyou with both hands.

Unable to speak, it could only report the information in writing.

Yue Qingyou took the letter, her beautiful eyes quickly scanning its contents. A mocking smile appeared on her lips.

"Hmph!"

"With the Demon Lord and I away, there are always some ignorant ants who can’t stay still!"

Yue Qingyou’s hand ignited with an ethereal flame, instantly burning the letter to ashes, a cold glint in her eyes.

"Left Guardian, should I return to the Demon Realm and eliminate those ants?"

Ye Tianshen looked at Yue Qingyou and asked proactively, his expression calm and indifferent.

It was as if he was inquiring about the most trivial matter.

The others around also looked expectant, their eyes gleaming with a ferocious and terrifying smile.

As long as Yue Qingyou gave the order, they would immediately return and eliminate those restless ants!

Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Cai Se, huddled in a corner, couldn’t help but tremble from the chilling aura emanating from the demons around them. They clung to each other tightly...

Indeed, this is the feeling we’re familiar with...

"Hmm... no need."

"The safety of the little princess and Madam is the most important right now."

"Those ants won’t be able to cause any significant trouble."

Yue Qingyou pondered for a moment and said calmly.

Since Dao Tianming had found Nanli City, perhaps the Dao Immortal Clan already knew the whereabouts of Luo Ruying and Luo Hongye.

The safety of the little princess and Madam was paramount!

The more pressing matter now was to deal with the Dao Immortal Clan...!
