Behind her, Huo Lun’s jaw dropped as a look of shock appeared on his face. It wasn’t that he recognized Yu Rumeng’s identity, but rather that he had never seen such a beautiful woman before, especially since Yu Rumeng had recently been nourished and was becoming more beautiful. Just now, that brief glimpse had nearly stolen Huo Lun’s soul.
However, Huo Lun wasn’t an idiot; after all, he was a Low-Rank Demon King, but he was somewhat knowledgeable. He knew that this beautiful woman must have an extraordinary status, otherwise it would be difficult for her to have such a graceful and noble temperament. In addition, last time, even the Snow Demon Lord had come here, so although Huo Lun was shocked by Yu Rumeng’s beauty, he didn’t dare act rashly. Instead, he lowered his head and cupped his hands, “This lowly one, Huo Lun, greets Madam. May I know how to address Madam?”
Since he couldn’t see through Yu Rumeng’s cultivation, he naturally knew that she was stronger than him, so calling her ‘Madam’ wasn’t wrong.
Yu Rumeng didn’t answer, only releasing a bit of her Demon Saint aura.
Huo Lun fell to his knees with a plop and slammed his head against the ground, “This lowly one greets the Saint Venerable Yu Rumeng, may the Saint’s face never age, may her youth last forever!” He cried out in his heart. Fortunately, he had not acted rashly just now, otherwise how could he still be alive? Last time, the Snow Demon Lord had come, but this time, the Succubus Lord had also come. What kind of damned place was this, how could it attract so many great figures?
Yu Rumeng, on the other hand, was a bit surprised and turned her head to look at him, not because this fellow’s words were interesting, but because he actually recognized her identity. Tilting her head, she asked, “Have you seen this Queen before?”
“I didn’t,” Huo Lun replied obediently.
“Then how do you know who this Queen is?” Yu Rumeng became even more curious.
Huo Lun replied honestly, “Of the Demon Territory’s twelve Saint Venerables, only three of them are women. This humble one has met the Snow Demon Lord last time. Although this humble one has never met the Feather Demon Lord, the characteristics of the Feather Demon Race are extremely obvious. The Saint Venerable is definitely not a Feather Demon, so… this humble one naturally knows the identity of the Saint Venerable.”
Yu Rumeng suddenly understood. So he had met Bei Limo before, no wonder he could recognize her. She smiled lightly and said, “You’re quite clever.”
“Saint is too kind.”
“Stand up and speak.” Yu Rumeng raised her hand.
Huo Lun hesitated for a moment before obediently standing up, but he didn’t dare to look at Yu Rumeng, instead staring straight at his feet. A Demon Succubus Lord was not someone he could casually look at. It was no wonder he had almost lost his soul just now. If he had really looked at her a few more times, his soul would have left his body.
“You said you met Bei Limo? When did that happen?” Yu Rumeng asked as she observed the grand scene in the distance.
“Just a while ago,” Huo Lun replied honestly. “About half a month ago.”
Counting the days, it was likely that before Yang Kai returned to the Phantom Continent, he had swallowed the Heavenly Martial Continent. Yu Rumeng immediately understood that Yang Kai must have taken Bei Limo in when he swallowed the Heavenly Martial Continent.
Secretly gritting her teeth, She actually know about Yang Kai's secret later than Bei Limo, she would definitely have to deal with him later.
“How long have you been here?” Yu Rumeng asked again.
“More than a year.”
Hearing this, Yu Rumeng was stunned. Over a year, wouldn’t that be after the Eternal Heaven Battle? Recalling what Yang Kai had told her before, she asked curiously, “When you first came here, what was this place like?”
What Huo Lun was asked was similar to what Chang Tian and Bei Limo had asked that day, so Huo Lun naturally told her everything he knew…
Yu Rumeng nodded repeatedly as she listened, and as time passed and the Hundred Spirit Continent was being devoured, she too felt the changes in this world.
…
After swallowing the Hundred Spirit Continent for more than ten days, the entire continent had become a chaotic void just like the Heavenly Martial Continent.
Yang Kai put away the Mysterious Boundary Bead and released Yu Rumeng from the Mysterious Small World before turning to Bei Limo with a smile, his meaning clear.
Chang Tian was also looking at her.
Now that the Hundred Spirit Continent had been swallowed up, Chang Tian had no way to retreat, so he naturally couldn’t allow Bei Limo to stand aside alone.
Bei Limo obviously understood this point, so she didn’t waste any time and turned around, “Let’s go.”
The group of four left the World Gate and rushed towards Proud Snow Continent.
Half a day later, Yu Rumeng left and returned to the Phantom Continent to make preparations. What Yang Kai was about to do next would definitely cause a great upheaval in the entire Demon Territory. If she didn’t make some arrangements soon, it was highly likely that some unpredictable changes would occur.
At the very least, she had to make proper arrangements for her Half-Saint subordinates and recall all the Half-Saints from the Two World Battlefield. Bei Limo was no exception.
A few days later, Yang Kai, Chang Tian, and Bei Limo arrived at the Proud Snow Continent. After arranging for the two of them to stay, Bei Limo began to gather her Half-Saint subordinates to make preparations.
Chang Tian had already placed all of the Hundred Spirit Continent’s future on Yang Kai, hoping that after the birth of the new Demon Territory, he would be able to give the Hundred Spirit Continent a better future and a wider world, so he was more concerned about Yang Kai’s safety than anyone else. In Proud Snow Ice Palace, he was almost always by Yang Kai’s side, a dignified Demon Saint level master almost becoming his guard.
Yang Kai had tried to persuade him several times, but he had refused to listen, so he had simply followed him.
While Bei Limo was preparing, Yang Kai was also checking the map and also asking Chang Tian for information.
After learning that Bei Limo had 43 continents under her command, Yu Rumeng was slightly inferior to her. She controlled 38 continents and had eleven Half Saints, but Yue Sang had been killed by Ming Yue and Yang Kai had also killed Yin Si. Coupled with the loss of the Eternal Heaven Battle, she now only had eight Half Saints under her command.
Similarly, Bei Limo originally had thirteen Half Saints under her command, one died in the Eternal Heaven Battle, so now there were only twelve left.
Yang Kai silently calculated. There were a total of twenty-nine Half Saint subordinates under Chang Tian, Bei Limo and Yu Rumeng! Such a terrifying amount of power could only be absorbed by Yang Kai after he devoured all of these continents. Although it was still inferior to the other Demon Saints, at least he could fight them.
During this time, Yang Kai also asked Chang Tian if he could rope in some more Demon Saints. He didn’t need many, just one or two would be enough to greatly increase their chances of winning.
However, Chang Tian had made him give up on this idea. Be it him, Bei Limo, or Yu Rumeng, the situation was quite special. He had boarded Yang Kai’s ship because he was unwilling to remain out of the limelight and wanted to find a way out for the Hundred Spirit Continent. Bei Limo was forced to do so, while Yu Rumeng was forced to do so because of the love between a man and a woman. The other Demon Saints weren’t so easy to deal with. If this matter were to be brought to their side, it would definitely be a violent storm.
As such, Yang Kai could only give up. Before his wings had fully grown, he didn’t want everyone to know about this.
Bei Limo didn’t delay any further, only informing Yang Kai three days later that everything was ready.
There was nothing more to say, so he directly began devouring Proud Snow Continent. During this time, Bei Limo stood beside Yang Kai and stared indifferently at the disappearing Proud Snow Continent, not saying a word.
However, her mood was definitely not as calm as it seemed on the surface. After all, this was the place where she became a Demon Saint, the place where she was born and raised. If not for Yang Kai, how could she be willing to let Proud Snow Continent be swallowed up?
After Proud Snow Continent, Yang Kai rushed to the next continent.
As time passed, one continent after another was devoured and Bei Limo’s territory gradually shrank.
Devouring the continent would take time, and Yang Kai remembered that it would take about ten days for Gun Gun to first devour a broken continent. Judging by the size of this continent, it would take some time.
However, as the space inside the Mysterious Boundary Bead expanded, its roiling body also grew rapidly, and the efficiency of its absorption gradually increased.
Devouring the Hundred Spirit Continent only took half a month, one had to know that the Hundred Spirit Continent was one of the largest territories in the entire Demon Territory, almost as big as Proud Snow Continent.
Devouring Proud Snow Continent only took about seven days, and after that, the efficiency gradually increased.
Originally, Yang Kai had been worried that the preparation time for this plan would be too long. After all, Bei Limo had 43 continents under her command. According to the amount of time each continent had to spend, these 43 continents would take about a year to devour. This year’s variables were simply too great.
However, now that his efficiency was improving, it was a piece of exciting news.
As time passed, the devouring of the continents became larger, and the rate at which they were being swallowed rapidly increased. Gradually, after five or six days, they would be able to swallow a continent, and after three or four days, it would become one or two days. If they encountered a smaller continent, they would be able to devour it in half a day.
One continent after another disappeared from the Demon Territory’s map, each one of which was originally located in a void with turbulent flows of energy.
With Bei Limo’s prior arrangements, the devouring process didn’t go wrong. Although the Demon Race on the various continents were terrified, they could only close their eyes and endure this devastating calamity. By the time they opened their eyes, they had already entered another world.
The territory of the Mysterious Small World was rapidly expanding.
In less than three months, the 43 continents under Bei Limo’s command had been completely devoured.
When the last piece of land was swallowed up, Yang Kai could clearly hear Bei Limo’s faint sigh. At this point, she was completely tied to Yang Kai, like Chang Tian, and there was no turning back.
Afterwards, Yang Kai put her into the Mysterious Boundary Bead and let her settle down with her people.
During this period of time, Bei Limo had entered and exited the Mysterious Boundary Bead many times, so she was no stranger to the Mysterious Small World. She also felt the changes in the Mysterious Small World and knew that this world was undoubtedly much stronger than the first time she had entered it. The 43 intact continents, together with the Hundred Spirit Continent, were a massive nutrition for the Mysterious Small World.
With the richness of these continents, the World Laws of the Mysterious Small World had become so rich that it could give birth to Void King Realm cultivators, similar to the Lower Plane Star Field.
This was only the territory of one Demon Saint, and there were still eleven Demon Saints territories that had yet to be devoured. If he could devour all of these eleven Demon Saints territories, Yang Kai was certain that the Mysterious Small World would grow into a Great World that was not inferior to a Star Boundary or Demon territory. At that time, even Demon Saints could be born in this world.
