Bai Ying and Zhu He had been staying in Thunder Hidden Valley for a few days, and everything was peaceful.

The Demon Envoy would occasionally gather the demons for meetings to discuss the "important matter" that was to take place next month.

Sometimes, the demons would also gather together to spar.

The place where Thunder Hidden Valley housed the demons was chaotic, with all kinds of demons and varying levels of quality.

Every time Bai Ying attended one of these demon gatherings, she could feel the hostile gazes directed at her.

When she turned around, she saw a few brown-yellow furred monkey demons standing not far behind her.

The monkeys wore thin clothes and squinted at her with malicious intent, scratching their heads with their hands.

Bai Ying had only just recovered from her injuries and wasn't sure if she could deal with these monkeys.

She felt they had been eyeing her for a long time, and if they suddenly attacked, it could be troublesome.

It was an afternoon when the demons suddenly received an order from the Demon Envoy to gather at Bai'e Mountain.

Bai'e Mountain was covered in snow all year round and had once been a battleground during the Heavenly Demon War, exuding a terrifying, overwhelming evil aura.

All sorts of small demons gathered at the foot of Bai'e Mountain, chattering and whispering, not knowing what the Demon Lord intended to do.

"I heard that the Lord has an important announcement for us today."

"What important news could it be on Bai'e Mountain? Could it be related to next month's plans?"

"I heard that after the Heavenly Demon War ended, although the two lords moved out, the fierce beast Qiongqi still remained in Bai'e Mountain."

The small demons were hopping about, shoving each other. Bai Ying was pushed several steps away, and for a moment, she couldn't find Zhu He's figure.

Bai Ying became a bit anxious, looking around and pushing through the crowd. After a while, she finally spotted Zhu He among the masses.

Zhu He was happily munching on a steamed bun, with crumbs around her mouth.

Bai Ying frowned slightly and couldn't help but say, "Stop eating, we should see what they're up to first."

Zhu He looked up at her. "But I haven't eaten yet today."

Bai Ying reached out and took the steamed bun from Zhu He's hand. Zhu He pursed her lips, instinctively gripping the bun tightly.

Bai Ying gently pulled it from her. "Be good and follow me for now, once the meeting's over, I'll get you something better."

Zhu He hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Then you must remember."

Bai Ying smiled softly. "I will definitely remember."

As they spoke, the crowd suddenly quieted down.

A man dressed in black robes stood at the edge of the cliff, staring down at the dark crowd of demons below. He calmly announced, "Today, I have an important announcement for everyone."

The Demon Lord was handsome, with vibrant tattoos of Chenliu flowers on his arms.

Although Bai Ying had only seen him once before, she recognized him immediately.

Suddenly, Bai Ying recalled that not long ago, her master and Dream King had come to Bai'e Mountain and secretly entered the cave where Qiongqi was being incubated.
