The universe was quiet for a while, probably just a few hundred years.

It was as if the universe itself needed a breather, allowing the creatures among the stars to rest and reflect.

This period of peace and quiet may be only a few hundred years in the vast history of the universe, but in the eyes of civilizations that have experienced countless wars, it is a precious period of peace.

After all, every civilization needs to develop, and the demon civilization is the same. It cannot always be in a state of war.

However, Morgana would often secretly call He Xi to ask about Shi Bing's situation.

However, the answer she got from He Xi was always the same, that he had been in a dormant state, or had not yet woken up. In the end, it was just this.

This time, when Morgana dialed the familiar secret communication code again, there seemed to be a hint of something unusual in her tone.

He Xi was busy with her research and was a little impatient with Morgana's frequent inquiries, but when she sensed the communication request, she answered it out of habit.

"Hexi."

[Liang Bing, if you are calling me secretly this time to ask about Bing Er's situation, I will still reply as before...]

"No, no, no, He Xi, that's not what I'm asking this time." Morgana interrupted He Xi and picked up the wine glass on the table, "Do you have time?"

He Xi was actually a little annoyed by Morgana's secret calls. After all, even if she was worried about Shi Bing's situation, she couldn't make three or four secret calls a day, right?

But when he heard Morgana say that she was not here for Shi Bing, he was stunned for a moment, then relaxed his tense nerves. He couldn't help but feel relieved, but at the same time he was a little confused, wondering why Morgana called this time.

[Oh? That's new.]

"Haha, He Xi, we don't actually have any big grudge against each other."

Morgana gently shook the wine glass in her hand, and the liquid in the glass sparkled with an alluring luster under the light, but her eyes passed through the illusory light and shadow, as if looking into the distant past and future.

Morgana took a sip of the mellow wine in the glass, closed her eyes, and savored the complex and subtle taste, as if warming up for the upcoming conversation.

Her mood slowly flowed along with the aroma of the wine, gradually condensing into words that she had rehearsed in her mind countless times.

"He Xi, I think it's time for us to find a suitable time to sit down and have a good chat without war or disputes, just with each other."

"About the universe, about civilization, and even about ourselves."

At this point, Morgana's eyes became soft and sincere. She emphasized: "He Xi, this time I am inviting you in a personal capacity, not as the Demon King, nor for any strategic considerations."

He Xi fell into a brief silence, with a subtle sense of expectation and hesitation in the air.

She was weighing the pros and cons quickly in her mind. After all, such a proposal would undoubtedly be a major change for them.

But in the end, the balance of reason and emotion seemed to lean towards the latter.

He Xi decided to accept the invitation. After all, the relationship between them had reached the point where it needed to be resolved.

Moreover, there is actually not much hatred between the two of them.

[My research has come to a temporary halt, so I have some free time.] She responded softly, as if she was making a promise to herself and Morgana.

[Okay, Liang Bing, we can find a suitable time to meet in Tiancheng or somewhere you think is more comfortable]

Morgana was delighted to hear He Xi's answer. She knew that this was a good start.

She gently shook the wine glass in her hand, looking at the night view outside the floor-to-ceiling window, her heart full of anticipation.

However, He Xi's last words made Morgana shake her head slightly, with a helpless smile on her lips: "He Xi, forget about Tiancheng, I dare not go there."

Having said that, Morgana gently shook the wine glass, her eyes gazing through the crystal liquid at the prosperous yet lonely night scene outside the floor-to-ceiling window, as if implying that this conversation would be like the night, deep and full of unknowns.

"But if you believe me, He Xi, you can come to Demon No. 1 by yourself and we can talk." Morgana continued.

"This is my territory and my home. There is no interference from the outside world. It's just you and me. We can communicate freely." Morgana then added, "He Xi, if you really want, Devil No. 1 welcomes you at any time."

He Xi frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and nodded.

[Okay, I'll consider it]

Morgana smiled and raised her glass, as if she had expected He Xi to agree.

"That's settled then. I look forward to meeting you."

......

"Yan, that's enough. No more fighting, no more fighting!" Lei Nu gasped and waved his hands in surrender.

Sweat slid down his determined face and dripped onto the hard ground of the training ground, making a slight sound.

After all, if he continued to fight with Yan, he was afraid that he would be crippled.

At this moment, all the demons who were watching the battle focused their attention on the pair of opponents with a huge disparity in strength. They looked at Yan unilaterally abusing Lei Nu, and the air around them seemed to freeze.

On the training ground, the demons were whispering one after another. They were either amazed at Yan's strength or sympathized with Lei Nu's experience.

In fact, before Lei Nu, a series of demons had been beaten, but without exception, they were unilaterally crushed by Yan.

In comparison, Lei Nu was relatively lucky this time because the damage he suffered was lighter than those demons before.

Yan gently shook the flaming sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword lightly touched the ground, making a crisp sound.

She glanced at Lei Nu, who was bruised and looked a little embarrassed, and a barely perceptible arc appeared at the corner of her mouth, but her eyes flashed with unquestionable confidence and pride.

However, Yan still rolled his eyes in disdain: "Lei Nu, you are not as tough as Aatrox."

Hearing this, Lei Nu couldn't help but protest: "Ato is Ato, and I am me. How can we be the same?"

Upon hearing this, Yan gently lifted her newly-changed hair on her forehead. The golden hair shone brightly in the sun, forming a sharp contrast with her deep and bright eyes.

Ever since Tian Shi Leng teased her last time, saying she looked like an unkempt female ghost, she decided to change her image to make herself look more capable and elegant.

So she changed her hairstyle to a neater and more energetic style, which revealed her bright and lively eyes.

As a blonde angel, she seemed a little out of place among the group of demons, but fortunately she did not dye her hair black like Morgana, and retained her original hair color.

"You guys are so boring." Yan sighed lightly, his tone showing both helplessness at the demons' fear of fighting and regret that he had no place to release his fighting spirit.

"When I asked you to fight me, you always flinched; finally someone was willing to fight, but you were so vulnerable."

Her eyes swept across the field, as if looking for the next opponent who could satisfy her.

However, the demons present lowered their heads and no one dared to fight.

However, at this time, a demon looked up and spoke to Yan.

"Yan, if you think we can't take a beating, go find an angel and fight."

"Yeah! Go find that angel!"

"Hey! Right, right, right! Yan, if you have the guts, go find that angel who kicked your butt and beat him up!"
