In the priest's temple.
Wei Zixi listened to Ye Xiao's report, his slender white fingers gently fiddling with the flower petals, his peach blossom eyes seemed to be smiling, his joy and anger difficult to discern.
Night Owl's fanatical and awed eyes would fall on his master from time to time, but when Wei Zixi looked over, he would still instinctively shrink in fear.
"You said that the new Saint is Jun Mulan?"
Night Owl shuddered, quickly collected his thoughts, and nodded, saying, "This was just jointly announced by the Priest's Palace and the Council of Elders. The Bishop and Priest just had someone report the news to you, the Demon Lord."
"Where's Xiyue?"
Night Owl felt extremely disgusted with this woman who would disturb his master's mood.
But he was 100% afraid of, respected and obedient to Wei Zixi, so he didn't dare to show even the slightest resentment on his face.
"I don't know either. The news from the Saint Maiden Palace is that Miss Xiyue is missing. Demon Lord, the time when Miss Xiyue disappeared is the same as the time when the Yuankong Ancient Realm was opened. Could it be... could it be related to this?"
Wei Zixi did not answer Ye Xiao's question, but slowly asked: "How is the thing I asked you to do going?"
"Please rest assured, Demon Lord. The gate to Siam is almost open. I believe we will be able to deliver Xuan Mu and the news he has received to you soon." Ye Xiao said hurriedly.
When talking about Xuan Mu, a hint of jealousy flashed in Ye Xiao's eyes.
The waste who once betrayed his master and had most of his cultivation destroyed unexpectedly would be reused by his master.
Why? He should be the most capable person under his master!
Wei Zixi nodded.
Night Owl glanced at his master and couldn't help asking, "Master Demon, do you need your subordinates to deal with that fake saint?"
Although he hated Xi Yue, Ye Xiao knew that the woman Xi Yue was what his master cared about most.
“Deal with her?” Wei Zixi raised the corners of his lips, smiling mockingly and evilly, “I just happen to be in need of the greatest sacrifice to break the Divine Emperor’s Eternal Tribulation Formation. If you deal with her, where can I find such a good sacrifice?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao smiled and bowed, saying, "I understand. Lord Demon, rest assured. I will spread the news that Jun Mulan is a saint to every corner of the Divine Realm. She is obviously not a saint but she pretends to be one. I believe that the Spiritual Prayer Ceremony next month will be very interesting."
Wei Zixi waved his hand to let him go, then looked up at the distant sky, and tightened his fingers that were fiddling with the petals slightly.
Xiyue...

"Mother, mother, wake up!"
Xi Yue heard Dandan's anxious voice in a daze. Her fading consciousness slowly returned and she opened her eyes with difficulty.
The first thing that catches your eye is a small glutinous rice dumpling.
A round body, big watery eyes, and tentacles dangling around.
"Dandan!" Xi Yue sat up happily, "Dandan, are you recovered?"
Dandan threw herself into Xiyue's arms and cried, "Mom, you finally woke up. I was scared to death!"
Xi Yue held the little guy in her arms, comforting him while looking around.
"Is this... the Yin-Yang Secret Realm?"
What you see is yellow sand all over the ground, and when you look up you see the starry sky at night. A gentle breeze blows by, bringing a refreshing coolness and comfort.
This is the Yin domain space of the Yin-Yang secret realm in the Yuankong ancient realm.
Dandan nodded and said, "Yes, mother, we were sucked into the Yuankong Ancient Realm."
Xi Yue recalled the previous battle in the Saint Maiden Hall, where Little Red Bird and the others were injured. (To be continued)
