From now on, the Qianling Ancient Clan was officially under the protection of the Demon Sect. Following the Demon Sect meant easy victories wherever they went. Moreover, with the Demon Sect as their backer, no one would dare to provoke the Qianling Ancient Clan in the future.

“Let’s go!” Ling Xue gestured with his hand.

Immediately, a massive spatial rift appeared in midair.

“Yes!” Qian Chen nodded again and turned to face the members of the Qianling Ancient Clan. He gave an order: “Retreat!”

All the members of the Qianling Ancient Clan swiftly boarded the giant flying demon beast. Except for Qian Xue, who was told to stay behind, the others returned to their homeland. Ling Xue had previously stated that Qian Xue would remain by his side, and of course, she was more than willing to oblige. From now on, she would be Ling Xue’s personal maid.

This round had been a major win for the Qianling Ancient Clan. Initially, they had planned to use Qian Xue and the Spirit Pearl in exchange for peace. But now, they not only kept the Spirit Pearl but also gained the protection of the Demon Sect. As for Qian Xue, she was perfectly content to serve as Ling Xue’s personal maid—there was no loss whatsoever.

As the Qianling Ancient Clan departed, Ling Xue didn’t waste any time. He waved his hand, leading the Demon Sect’s forces back to Cangyun Heavenly Mountain.

Thus, everything came to an end!

Only a vast expanse of blood-colored mist and the onlookers around remained. Today’s battle had opened everyone’s eyes. Battles of this magnitude were rarely witnessed, especially ones that were so one-sided. It wouldn’t be long before the news of the Demon Sect’s destruction of the entire Taixuan Empire would spread across the Yuan Yang Continent and the entire world. The Demon Sect’s might would once again echo throughout the heavens!

Cangyun Heavenly Mountain, Demon Sect.

Upon their return, Ling Xue gave orders for a brief reorganization of the forces. In three days, they would storm the Thirty-Six Immortal Palaces.

After issuing these commands, Ling Xue returned to his quarters.

Qian Xue, with her bare jade-like feet, had been following closely behind him, feeling a bit anxious.

Will Ling Xue do something to me now?

Even if he did, I know I couldn’t resist.

But… if he moved too fast, I wouldn’t feel ready to accept it. There should at least be some time to develop feelings, right?

Though… She thought bitterly, perhaps maids aren’t entitled to feelings.

At this thought, a pang of sorrow hit Qian Xue’s heart. Would I always be just his maid? If I were to remain just a servant forever, with no chance of developing any romantic connection…

Qian Xue would feel somewhat… regretful.

She didn’t dislike Ling Xue. She hoped that something might develop between them. If she could become the Demon Lord’s wife… Well, that was a dream. Ling Xue had so many beautiful women by his side already.

Qian Xue was lost in her thoughts when, suddenly, Ling Xue stopped walking. She was so distracted that she bumped right into his back.

“I’m… I’m sorry, Demon Lord, I didn’t mean to!”

She quickly took two steps back, bowing her head.

Damn it, first day as a maid and I’m already so clumsy.

What was I even thinking? Daydreaming?

“Wait outside,” Ling Xue said calmly, not minding the incident. Then, he walked into his quarters.

Outside, Qian Xue stood still, utterly confused.

Wait, isn’t something supposed to happen now?

Or maybe… it’s not what I thought.

A complex swirl of emotions filled Qian Xue’s heart. If Ling Xue had made a move on her, she would have been nervous. But now that he didn’t, she felt a little disappointed…

So, with a mix of feelings, she remained there, quietly waiting, not daring to move.

Inside the chamber, Ling Xue entered and immediately noticed someone lying on his bed, sleeping soundly. Of course, it wasn’t anyone else—it was Xiao Xiao.

She always liked sneaking into Ling Xue’s bed to sleep when he wasn’t around.

If I can’t sleep with Ling Xue, then I’ll sleep in his bed, was her thought process.

Sleeping in Ling Xue’s bed gave her the sensation of being embraced by him, making her feel incredibly safe and comfortable.

In the entire Demon Sect, only she dared to sneak into his bed for a nap. Even though she was just a maid with no cultivation powers, no one in the Demon Sect dared to reprimand her. After all, she was Ling Xue’s personal maid.

At this moment, her sleeping posture wasn’t exactly graceful—it would be more accurate to describe it as sprawling. Her clothes were a bit disheveled, and one corner of her robe had slipped down, revealing a bare shoulder and a hint of her slightly developed chest.

Ling Xue, seeing the adorable little maid, didn’t scold her. He simply cleared his throat.

“Mmm…”

Xiao Xiao, sensing someone’s presence, groggily opened her eyes. The next moment, her eyes widened in shock, and she jumped out of bed.

“Young… Young Master!? You’re back?”

She quickly got off the bed and hurriedly tidied up her disheveled appearance, her face flushing with embarrassment.

“What were you doing lying here?” Ling Xue asked.

“I… I was tidying up your quarters, Young Master. I got a bit tired and fell asleep,” Xiao Xiao blinked innocently as she fibbed.

In truth, she had come to Ling Xue’s room specifically to sleep, hoping to feel his presence.

Ling Xue, of course, knew she was lying, but he didn’t bother calling her out on it. He simply waved his hand. “Go out and wait.”

“Mmhmm! Okay!”

Blushing, Xiao Xiao turned and scurried out of the room.

Inside the chamber, Ling Xue took a deep breath and sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes and focused, sending his consciousness into the Asura Hell Tower in his Qi Sea.

Now, it was time to see what was imprisoned on the third level of the tower.

If he could subdue it, he’d have another formidable asset by his side!
