Rebirth of a Thousand Years: Entering the New Demonic World

The army surrounded the palace and remained motionless. Soon a scene that shocked all humans present appeared: the original royal nobles of the human kingdom lined up and walked out, each of them looking haggard and in tattered clothes.

This group of human leaders with strange behavior knelt down and kowtowed in front of the demon army, and shouted in unison: "We are blind and have taken the enemy as our father. We have chosen the wrong side and have killed many of our fellow human beings. We have no face to face the human people!"

After shouting these words, this group of people drew the swords at their waists and stabbed them into their chests. The square outside the palace suddenly became the execution ground of the old royal family. Everyone was surprised and horrified when they saw this scene. It was not difficult to guess that this was also a method of the demons, but how did they do it?

A man clapped his hands and stood up from the pile of corpses. The fatal wounds on his body disappeared immediately. He flashed in front of Ying Li and revealed his true form.

It turned out to be a tall and thin young man wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat. His skin was pale without a trace of blood, and there was a strange black light shining in his eyes. He glanced at the dumbfounded Yuchi Yan with a half-smile and said:

"Did I scare you, human? I am the Phantom Demon King under the command of Dark Flame Demon Lord Ying Li: Shen. It was me who used hallucinogenic magic to make these traitors commit suicide. I hope you remember this scene. This is what will happen if you betray us."

"Uh! I, I don't know what you mean... I just..." Yuchi Yan was a little confused when he heard this, not knowing where this threat came from.

"You are the king of this country from now on." Ying Li interrupted him and placed a strong hand on his shoulder. A vast amount of magic power was poured into his body, which boosted his spirits and increased his strength.

A day later, the new Human Emperor Yuchi Yan assembled the new leadership of mankind and invited Ying Li and a group of demon kings to hold a diplomatic conference, thus establishing an alliance between the demons and humans.

Ying Li said that the demons will not enslave humans, nor will they restrict the normal development of humans in any form. They will also regularly accept outstanding talents among humans to come to the demon tribe to pay homage to the devil's heart, receive nourishment from magic in order to seek the opportunity to cultivate magic; humans only need to teach advanced science and technology to the demons, conduct research together with the demon researchers, and help the demons when they are in trouble.

The meeting ended successfully. For the first time, the human leaders witnessed the vision and foresight of the demon Ying Li, and expressed their appreciation and support for this supreme powerful man.

Ying Li confessed to humans that although his tribe seemed to be superior and prosperous, it was actually surrounded by enemies on all sides. He expressed his urgent need for humans as an ally with unlimited potential.

The first group of demon seekers set out on the same day. The demons placed a teleportation beacon in Huadu to send the first group of lucky people in human history who were about to possess magical powers into the abyss of Demon City. Among them were Wang Yi and his relatives and friends. This was the Demon Lord's way of repaying his guide on his journey to the human world. No matter what their talents were, they could all join the team as an exception.

In addition, Ying Li also ordered the Phantom Demon King and the Shadow Demon King to garrison in Huadu for a long time to assist humans in developing military forces with the goal of eliminating the orc invaders.

The night before returning to the Abyss, Ying Li had a moment of relaxation. Galantina calculated the time and waited for him at the stairs outside the palace for a long time. The moment Ying Li appeared, she immediately pounced on him but was stopped by Ying Li and held in his hand like a chicken.

"If someone sees you doing this, you will be arrested on the spot for attacking the Demon Lord." Ying Li said unhappily.

"Hehe~ I miss you after not seeing you for a few days. Are you willing to let them arrest your future wife?" Galanthe said with a smile and let Ying Li carry her without struggling.

"Is it my good temper that makes you feel like you can speak wildly to the Demon Lord?" Ying Li frowned. For thousands of years, this woman has been a standout among women. How did she develop such a natural ability to get along with me?

"Isn't this good? Do you want to destroy your good image?" Galantina really took advantage of the fact that Ying Li would not do anything to her. The little snake demon chatted and laughed with the leader of the demons, looking relaxed and contented.

In this delicate atmosphere, the two chatted and walked out of the noble district and came to the bustling streets of Huadu. They walked through the busy streets and alleys, taking a quick look at the various aspects of the secular world.

After the war, many medical institutions were set up on the streets to accommodate the wounded. Some were existing hospitals and clinics, some were temporary charities, and a large number of destroyed buildings were being rebuilt.

Compared to the first time I came to Huadu, there are many more scars and pains here, but the laughter and joy that existed before are still there. For mankind, this war is a rebirth of destruction and construction.

The two walked to the riverside of a park. Galantina squatted on the shallows and threw stones, while Ying Li stared at the sparkling river in the distance with an expressionless face, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Hey~ Isn't it time for you to help me get out of prison after we get back?" Galanthe suddenly turned around and flicked a few drops of water at Ying Li.

Ying Li was not in a good mood and controlled the magic wind to hit a few drops of water on Galantina's head. When he heard the word "release from prison", he guessed what this woman was going to say.

"You are now determined to become a demon concubine, right?"

Galantina smiled, her face flushed, and she said without denying, "You didn't explicitly refuse, which means I have a chance!"

Although Ying Li has lived for more than 2,000 years, he is not good at dealing with these problems. He tried to shift the focus and said, "If I let A Jiao take you out to play, won't that count as being released from prison?"

"Of course not! What I want is eternal freedom, unrestrained freedom!" Galantina suddenly said loudly.

When Ying Li looked at her, he found that her usual cheerful expression was gone. Now her eyes were red and she was staring at him with determination.

"you…"

As the daughter of the Demon King, Galantina has been under strict control and a rigid aristocratic education since childhood, but she is naturally unruly and yearns for freedom, and later became the most difficult to discipline troublemaker lady.

The incident of secretly learning taboos and forcing the Demon Lord to descend to the mortal world not long ago put a lot of pressure on the Jiao Demon King A Jiao himself and his entire clan, and also made the Demon King cruel to his own daughter.

"What do you mean? Give me an answer quickly, do you want me or not?" Galantina said bluntly. She thought that this matter should not be taken lightly.

"I, I can't say. How about...how about you go back and rest today? You're tired!"

Ying Li waved his sleeves and summoned the pollen that made her sleepy, and then turned into a cloud of black mist and sent Galantina back to the Jiao Demon King. If he continued to pester her, he was afraid that he would be tricked. Facing the unknown, his thousand-year wisdom told him not to make decisions on his own.

Seeing his daughter sleeping in Ying Li's arms, Ah Jiao felt ashamed. This was the second time his daughter had caused trouble for the Demon Lord, and she was held back so intimately.

"Lord Demon, please punish me for not disciplining my children well enough!" As he said this, Ah Jiao knelt down hurriedly.

"No need! Your daughter... is an excellent snake demon. Please be nicer to her in the future and pay more attention to her preferences and needs."

Leaving behind these words that puzzled A Jiao, Ying Li flew away as if escaping. At this time, Galantina slowly opened her eyes, revealing a sly smile, and thought to herself:

Yingli, Yingli, no matter how cool you are, you can't let me confuse your true nature, can't you?

Yes, Ying Li's heart, which had been calm and introverted for thousands of years, now felt a little strange. He had seen countless beautiful girls but none of them could move him. However, in the process of interacting with Galantina, he felt an unprecedented emotion.

The return journey was much smoother. The Phantom Demon King Mirage had already organized various tribes to attack the orc forces one after another, and the road from the Demon Empire to Yanhuang was now a peaceful place.

A few days later, the large army entered the border of the Demon Empire and happened to run into a face that had not been seen for a thousand years but was very familiar to him. Ying Li flew forward to greet him.

Both of them looked like tall and mighty young men wearing black robes and armor, with pale hair hanging down around them. From time to time, a few wisps of black air flowed out of their skin as pale as a dead person. Their pair of black eyes, which were emitting ghostly fire, were full of viciousness and sharpness.

"Long time no see, Yingli. I heard you have made new allies?"

The gloomy man greeted Ying Li in his heavy and suppressed voice. As he spoke, his clothes moved without wind. The demon soldiers and generals beside him felt the gloomy wind sweeping across them, making them feel desolate and bleak.

"I have made an alliance with humans. Their settlement is in the east, which is under your charge, Black Xiao."

Ying Li only remembered that a thousand years ago, the four great demon lords fled to different directions, and he himself was stationed in the western border. This Black Sky Xiao was the "Demon Lord Covering the Sun" who was conquering the east.

"Ha ha…"

Hei Tianxiao chuckled twice, stretched out his slender arm covered with bone decorations from his sleeves and patted Ying Li on the shoulder. His black demonic energy and Ying Li's dark purple demonic energy entangled and tore each other in the air.

"You come to my place without asking to see me?"

The Black Sky Xiao's momentum suddenly rose, and the monstrous demonic energy penetrated the sky, and a desolate darkness suddenly appeared behind him.

"unnecessary."

Ying Li was not willing to be outdone and burst out a strong wind to blast the opponent's hand back. He fixed his eyes and offered an equally shocking feast of demonic energy.

In an instant, the sky and the ground changed, one black and one purple each occupied half of the sky. No one dared to interrupt, whether it was Ying Li's subordinates or Hei Tian Xiao's followers, they retreated to the side nervously and solemnly.

But the two supreme beings were not the kind of people who would make trouble without reason. How could they start fighting over a disagreement? After a round of probing, they tacitly stopped at the same time.

"Do you know why I am returning home at this time?" Heitian asked.

Ying Li shook his head, but he suddenly felt uneasy. The other party waved his sleeves, shielding everything except the two of them from the black fog, and raised two fingers and said:

"Two things. A crack has appeared in the barrier of the Demon's Heart; the enemies that we have suppressed or driven away are coming back."

"what?"

The demon world is like other planets in the vast universe, with changes in geology, species, and climate. The demons have existed in the world since the beginning of chaos, but they have also been competing with other species in every era for living space.

The reason why the demons have not sent a large-scale army to quell the rebellion of foreign races is mainly because they are not the big enemies. The real enemies are the old enemies hiding in the dark and ready to strike.

Where the Devil's Heart is placed, there is a magic barrier built by the five great demon lords. It can block all attacks in the world and can be called an absolute defense.

During the time when Ying Li was away, someone tampered with the situation, and all the Shadow Demon sentries responsible for surveillance nearby were knocked down, resulting in a gap in the surveillance field of view for a full half-hour.

The five great demon lords all set out on the journey back to their country to rescue the people. After Ying Li gave some simple instructions, he took the lead and stepped into the portal with Hei Tianxiao to quickly return to the Abyss.

The meeting hall of the Demon Lord Conference is magnificent and filled with rare treasures, exquisite handicrafts and high-end magical instruments. In the center of the hall there is a pentagonal and five-sided conference table, and a figure has been waiting by the table for a long time.

She was a woman with green hair and a green shirt. Her lower body was a snake tail with colorful scales, and her back had wings made of burning dragon bones. She had a noble appearance and an aura that surpassed everything. This woman was none other than the "Star-Picking Demon Lord" Ariovihes who had warned Ying Li a year ago.

"Long time no see, Black Moon Xiao. I didn't expect that you, who was in charge of the most complicated part of the war, would be able to come back so soon. And Ying Li, you..."

Areovihes' voice was clear and calm, and her tone was emotionless, but when she mentioned Ying Li, she showed a hint of helplessness.

"Do you remember the previous prophecy?"

Ying Li nodded and sat down in his seat, but asked in confusion: "Of course I remember, but is the current situation related to human affairs?"

"Humph!"

Black Sky Xiao snorted disdainfully, as if he already knew something. Aliovihes raised his hand, and a wall of light appeared, on which an animation gradually solidified, showing a group of men in black using some kind of magic to knock out the invisible Shadow Demon sentry, and then forming a formation to dig out the barrier of the Demon's Heart.

"These cowards thought they could block my sight by dealing with the patrolling Shadow Demon, but they underestimated my foresight. I only need to go back to that time and place to record their crimes."

At this time, Areovehus's aura suddenly changed while he was practicing martial arts. He was no longer gentle and elegant, but was filled with surging demonic energy and a mysterious feeling like a black hole. Even every word he spoke carried a suppressed echo.

Then she actually reached her hand into the picture, grabbed the void and tore off everyone's masks, revealing that it was a team mainly composed of humans and orcs.

"See, you are making a lot of trouble for this bunch of greedy people. I heard that you let them go to see the Devil's Heart not long ago?" Hei Tianxiao said reproachfully.

Ying Li looked at this group of people in disbelief. There were many familiar faces among them. They were the first group of humans who had entered the imperial capital before. Except for the familiar Wang Yi, almost everyone else was in the team.

"This... this should only be a part of the people. There are many kind people among humans." Ying Li still hoped that all this was just an accident.
