Two days later, the vampire reconnaissance team returned to the Shuowang Empire. Captain Lake went to the residence of Regent Your Majesty to report: "Reporting to Regent Your Majesty, there was a huge energy fluctuation in the Dragon Lizard Gorge. It should belong to a major secret realm, which will open in thirteen days."
"I see, you may leave for now," said Yar, who was behind the screen, speaking slowly.
"Yes," Lake replied and left.
Yar behind the screen had a flushed face and disheveled clothes. Under her there was an Iris body pillow, covered in ambiguous marks.
"Phew..." Yar let out a sigh of relief, her face slightly better.
"It would be great if Lord Demon Emperor could move, but unfortunately, it's just a body pillow," Yar muttered to herself, her face turning crimson.
It had been so long, it was time for Lord Demon Emperor to reward Yar, or else she would quit. Yar felt delighted thinking about the tenderness and caresses of Lord Demon Emperor.
Afterwards, she took a bath, changed into a white dress, and headed towards the living quarters of Lord Demon Emperor.
"Knock, knock, knock..." Yar knocked on the door, hoping that the person inside would quickly open the door to greet her.
"Knock, knock, knock..." Yar knocked on the door again.
Yar furrowed her brows. Could Lord Demon Emperor be asleep?
Otherwise, why was there no response after she had been knocking for so long?
Just as Yar was about to give up, the door opened, revealing a bewitching and cold face.
"I have something to report, if there is nothing, I shall take my leave," Iris said expressionlessly. She knew that Yar had come to report an important message and ask for her salary, which involved some indescribable matters.
"Greetings, Lord Demon Emperor." Yar kneeled on one knee, placed her right hand on her chest, and bowed her head respectfully.
"No need for formalities!" At this moment, Iris's mind was thinking about how to quickly dismiss Yar, while also communicating with Chaos.
There was no response from Chaos, and Iris knew that he had already awakened. With the lock and key, how could he continue to ignore Iris like before, pretending to sleep for several months?
"What important matter do you need to report to me in person?"
"Reporting to Lord Demon Emperor, a large secret realm has appeared in the southwest of the Shuowang Empire, five hundred kilometers away in the Dragon Lizard Gorge. It will open in thirteen days," Yar immediately reported, with a serious expression on her face.
"I see." Iris nodded, a trace of brilliance flashing in her eyes, as if she had thought of a good idea.
"Lord Demon Emperor, Yar still has..." Yar didn't have a chance to finish her words before Iris interrupted her with actions.
She held Yar's soft and delicate face without any hesitation, and kissed her lightly on the lips.
This sudden kiss caused Yar's brain to freeze, and she stared at the Demon Emperor who was so close to her. She had never imagined that the Demon Emperor would take the initiative like this.
After a while, their lips separated.
Iris let go of her hand and said, "I'm going to rest now, goodnight!"
"Uh... uh, goodnight~~" Yar answered with a dazed look in her eyes, blushing and feeling shy.
Iris closed the door, leaving Yar standing in front of the Demon Emperor's bedroom. Her face was flushed, and a strand of her hair swayed gently, showing her excitement.
Yar covered her blushing cheeks and muttered to herself: "Lord Demon Emperor kissed me on his own initiative! I was actually kissed by Lord Demon Emperor! Ahhh!!!"
Yar put his hand to his lips and gently sniffed, a sweet and happy feeling rushing over him.
"I must work harder in the future!"
With those words, Yar walked away.
Meanwhile, Baixi, covered in dried blood stains, caught sight of Yar's departing figure. "Huh? Is there something worth celebrating tonight? Did I miss something?"
Well, if she missed it, she missed it. The most important thing now was to improve her strength. Otherwise, her mother would look down on her weakness and not take her to the battlefield.
Baixi returned to her dormitory, took off her blood-stained clothes, and washed the blood off her body with warm water.
Her back was covered in many scars, but the injuries were not too severe. If it weren't for her dragon scales, these scars would probably reveal white bones.
"Hisss..." The warm water touching her wounds made Baixi suck in a breath of cold air. "Damn Dragon-Bear Beast, ambushing me while I was hunting the Scorpion-Lion. I'll come to your house and slaughter you tomorrow."
Baixi didn't intend for Iris to heal her with summoning magic. Baixi wanted to rely on her own strength to fight and heal herself with medicine and her own recovery ability.
Even in battles against ancient behemoths, her mother couldn't guarantee a 100% kill. This was merely one ancient behemoth. If there were two, three, or even more, how could her mother possibly use summoning magic to heal her? Baixi wanted to share the pressure for her mother instead of being a burden.
If there were two ancient behemoths attacking her mother, Baixi would share the burden of one; if there were four, she would share the burden of two. In short, Baixi wanted to share 50% of her mother's pressure.
She would continue to battle high-level magical beasts, obtain their Beast Pills, and improve her own strength.
Although Baixi devoured Anzu's body, the Beast Pill was destroyed by Anzu before his death, leaving Baixi with only a simple meal and no gains.
Currently, Baixi was an eighth-level magical beast, just one step away from reaching the ninth level. But to take this step, she needed to enter the Star Gate and absorb enough power in the summoning system's Consciousness Space to smoothly advance to the ninth level.
After taking a shower, Baixi put on her underwear and applied medicine to her wounds. Then, she opened the Star Gate and entered the Consciousness Space to draw strength.
Iris felt the power in the summoning system's Consciousness Space continuously draining, clearly because of Baixi.
...
Iris lay on the bed, her mind filled with thoughts of the secret realm.
The danger of the secret realm was an unknown variable, with its resources tied to the danger level. This time, the danger level should be S, and the Ugly Monster and Female Ketone would likely come to fight for the treasures in the secret realm.
Iris's goal was not the treasures of the secret realm or controlling its "scenery."
She planned to follow the Ruined Land Alliance Army all the way. They had experienced many crises, so their strength would naturally be weakened. When the time came, she would lead her Warlocks to slay them all. She didn't care who took the "scenery."
During the secret realm, she would have Lili Lanzu lead the Fireflies, Shadow Guards, and elite vampire warriors to attack the White Stork Empire.
Iris knew that the Ugly Monster and Female Ketone had never experienced the secret realm, so they had no idea how dangerous this S-level secret realm truly was.
Even if Nuvo and Ugly Duckling asked those captured humans, these soldiers could only give vague concepts.
Most of them are on the outskirts and would never go to the central area of the secret realm, where the strong humans are. Nowadays, most of the strong humans have died for their country, and the remaining ones are hiding, saving their strength in hopes of making a comeback.
When the S-level secret realm appeared, Lilia and Lily Lanzu brought thirty shadow guards in. It was at the cost of losing twenty-five shadow guards and Lilia being seriously injured that they managed to bring back the "Scenery".
One can imagine the level of danger in an S-level secret realm.
If the "Scenery" cannot be obtained within the secret realm, it can be snatched from outside. As newcomers, Nuvo and Ugly Duckling should be ambushing outside to snatch it.
In this way, the pressure on Lily Lanzu will be greatly reduced. Maybe they can steal the right family and come over to support them.
"Vampire girl, your plan deserves praise," the voice of Chaos came out.
This time, Iris didn't engage in a verbal battle with Chaos. She was cultivating her mind, not wanting to waste her previous efforts.
Calmness and composure are her best companions.
"Watch me perform! I'm blocking you now." With that, Iris closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Chaos: ???
What's going on? Shouldn't she be arguing with me? Why is she ignoring me?
I just slept for a day, has the world changed so quickly?
