The dramatic shift in attitude indeed surprised Ye Yun.
Gongsun Chang and Xing Wu, however, breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyone could see that the Demon God Domain before them was extraordinary. If a major conflict were to erupt, who knew what might happen?
Under his guidance, Ye Yun and the other two headed towards the Demon God Domain. Ye Yun couldn't help but ask curiously.
"You said just now that your Highness is an old acquaintance of mine. Who exactly is she? What's her name?"
This was what he was most curious about now.
However, the man in red did not tell him, merely replying with a faint smile.
"This, your Highness said to keep it confidential for now. You will know when you meet her."
His secretive demeanor only made Ye Yun more curious.
"Alright then, I'll go meet her."
Since she was nearby, there was no need to rush.
The man in red smiled and said, "This way, please..."
Before long, the man in red led them into the Demon God Domain.
What greeted their eyes was a prosperous, vast city. With his keen perception, Ye Yun instantly noticed that everyone in this great world had some form of demonic features.
Some had tails, some had horns, and some had wings. It was a diverse array of bloodlines.
Ye Yun looked down at the street and couldn't help but ask.
"So, are you all like demons or something with your appearances?"
"That's right, we are the demon race."
The man in red was unconcerned and explained with a smile.
"To be precise, we are inheritors of the Demon God's bloodline. All demons in this great world are, strictly speaking, descendants of our Demon God's bloodline!"
"I see..."
Ye Yun mused. In that case, the demons on the Xuan Tian Continent actually had such a significant origin.
However, based on what he had seen in the Great Thousand World, the demon population was not small, indicating that this race had reproduced quite successfully.
At the same time, by the window of a luxurious palace.
A red-haired woman stood there, gazing at the streaking meteors outside the window, which were the remnants of Ye Yun and the other three.
Beside the woman, a flame-like phantom floated, from which an ancient voice emanated.
"The person you spoke of, is it him?"
"That's right, it's him!"
The red-haired woman looked at the meteors outside the window, her eyes filled with inexpressible anticipation.
Although her relationship with Ye Yun could not be described as deep, she always held an indescribable affection for him.
But she also understood that with so many beautiful women around Ye Yun, she had no chance with him.
As if sensing her mood, the flame phantom slowly said.
"This person is indeed extraordinary. If you were to join him, it would indeed be a good thing."
Compared to the red-haired woman's hesitation, his words were quite direct.
This made the red-haired woman blush, and she repeatedly shook her head.
"There's no point in thinking about that, there's no hope."
"Why is there no hope?"
The flame phantom said calmly, "In your current state, you are the future creation god of our Demon God Domain, so you don't need to feel inferior or think you are less than anyone else."
"You can be completely more confident, and you should have your own pride."
"I... I understand."
The red-haired woman nodded and pursed her lips, "I'll try."
Seeing this, the flame phantom nodded.
"That would be best."
He had given her earnest advice. Whether she could change would depend on her alone.
After their gossiping, the flame phantom looked at the distant meteors, his tone turning serious.
"I hope he can truly help our Demon God Domain, as you said, escape its eternal destiny."
"If it's him, there will be no problem!"
The red-haired woman's voice was firm, full of confidence in Ye Yun.
The flame phantom smiled faintly, "Since you have such faith in him, let's look forward to his future performance."
For ten thousand years, the Demon God Domain had been trapped by destiny, unable to escape. Now, a glimmer of hope had finally appeared.
...
Outside the crimson-gold palace, led by the man in red, Ye Yun and the other two stepped inside.
Compared to the outside, almost everyone they saw here were demons with dragon tails.
It was evident that the rulers of the Demon God Domain were these beings who resembled mini dragon-men.
"The three of you, your Highness is waiting inside."
The man in red stopped before a door and reminded Ye Yun, then knocked.
"Your Highness, Ye Yun, whom you were looking for, has arrived."
"Mm, come in."
Then, a woman's voice, which Ye Yun found extremely familiar, sounded from within.
He and Xing Wu exchanged glances. Unsurprisingly, they both showed looks of surprise.
The meaning was clear: both of them felt a sense of familiarity.
"Please come in, the three of you."
The man in red smiled faintly. Two guards stood at the door and respectfully pushed it open.
At this, the interior of the room was fully revealed. It was decorated in the style of a typical woman's boudoir.
And by the window, a red-haired woman with horns on her head was standing, smiling at the three people at the door, or rather, at Ye Yun alone.
"Star Lord Ye, long time no see."
"Uh..."
To be honest, Ye Yun's first reaction upon seeing the red-haired woman was a strong sense of familiarity.
And a second later, a familiar name surfaced, and the expression on his face gradually turned to shock.
"Wait! Wait, wait!"
Ye Yun's eyes widened, genuinely stunned.
The red-haired woman smiled faintly, "I didn't expect Star Lord Ye to remember me."
"It's actually you? What is going on?!"
Ye Yun found it utterly unbelievable.
Although he had had various speculations before, even if she had been the missing Chen Yan'er, he wouldn't have found it too incredible.
But the person before him exceeded his expectations somewhat.
"This matter, it's really a long story."
The red-haired woman also smiled with some helplessness.
Of course, this was nothing compared to the astonishment of Ye Yun and Xing Wu at this moment.
It seemed almost incredible, but the red-haired woman before them was someone they both knew. She was Hong Ling, the eldest princess of the demon race from the Xuan Tian Continent!
The one who was almost NTR'd and later saved by Ye Yun!
Afterward, with Ye Yun's help, she had successfully unified the demon race and become the new empress of the demon race.
When Ye Yun had returned to the Xuan Tian Continent not long ago, he remembered asking about her and learned that she had been working hard to promote the relationship between the demon race and humans on the Xuan Tian Continent.
At the time, Ye Yun had felt quite gratified, thinking he hadn't misjudged her. He had planned to help her if she ascended to the Heavenly Domain in the future.
He never expected to meet her again so soon, and in this state!
"You... you..."
Ye Yun looked at Hong Ling before him, momentarily at a loss for words.
Especially when, inexplicably, the situation where they had almost consummated their relationship flashed through his mind.
And how he had later seemed to have touched her horns, only to realize later that horns were a most sensitive part for demons...
Everything felt both strange and familiar, as if it had happened just yesterday.
