The Night Demon Clan’s royal city.

It was late at night, and Wei Wuhen was still sitting in the hall drinking tea. Beside him was Feng Muchuan, dressed in black.

"Elder, you have been sitting here for a whole night. You should go in and rest first." Feng Muchuan said in a low voice.

"Muchuan, I always feel uneasy. If Ye Guyun lives one more day, it will be a huge threat to me!" Wei Wuhen said in a low voice.

"Don't worry, I'm always keeping an eye on Ye Guyun. His every move is under my surveillance. If he does anything abnormal, I will tell you the first time." Feng Muchuan said respectfully.

"Well, I feel relieved with your words." Wei Wuhen nodded, then stood up and said in a deep voice: "It's getting late, you should go back to Ye Guyun."

"Yes, Elder!" Feng Muchuan bowed and saluted.

As soon as he turned around, Wei Wuhen called him again.

"Wait a moment!"

"Elder, do you have any other instructions?" Feng Muchuan turned around and asked quickly.

Wei Wuhen raised his hand and conjured up a black pill, then handed it to Feng Muchuan, "Find a way to get Ye Guyun to eat this!!"

"Elder, what...what is this?" Feng Muchuan took the pill in confusion.

Wei Wuhen sneered, "This is a blood-clotting poison. Once swallowed, the blood in the body will slowly coagulate. At most in two days, Ye Guyun will die!"

"Yes, I understand! I'll go right away!" Feng Muchuan took the pills with both hands, turned around and left quickly.

Not long after Feng Muchuan left, Wei Ziqing appeared at the entrance of the palace.

"Dad, I'm back."

"Qing'er?? Why did you come back so early?" Wei Wuhen asked in surprise. As soon as he turned around, he saw that Wei Ziqing's face and body were covered with scars. "Qing'er, how did you become like this?? Tell me quickly, was it Qiye who did it??!!"

Wei Ziqing sighed, "Oh, forget it. I met someone whose cultivation is higher than Qiye's, and I don't know what his relationship with Qiye is?!"

Wei Wuhen frowned, "Qing'er, what happened?"

Wei Ziqing gritted his teeth and told Wei Wuhen everything that happened in the Silver Feather Tribe. "...Originally, the people I brought were enough to deal with Qiye. I didn't expect that an unidentified man would show up on the way. It was he who injured me!"

After listening to Wei Ziqing's story, Wei Wuhen fell into a brief contemplation.

After a while, he asked in a deep voice: "Qing'er, do you still remember the man's appearance?"

"That man looks elegant, but actually he has an aura of majesty without even being angry. As for his age, he should be younger than Qiye. I didn't dare to look at his face closely, so my memory of his appearance is not very clear. I only heard Qiye call him... Young Master Yue Ze." Wei Ziqing recalled carefully.

After a pause, he added, "By the way, Dad, that man also gave Qi Ye 100,000 high-level spiritual power stones. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it was true."

"What? One hundred thousand high-level spiritual power stones?!" Wei Wuhen was shocked. "To be able to take out so many high-level spiritual power stones at once, the identity of that person must not be underestimated."

"Dad, I have brought them all to the Night Demon Clan. What do you think we should do now?" Wei Ziqing asked hurriedly.

"The Demon Emperor will arrive in two days. We must not make any mistakes at this critical moment!" Wei Wuhen said to himself, "Qing'er, didn't you just say that those five people are in the Night Demon Clan now? Then kill them all before the Demon Emperor arrives!"

“But Dad, those people’s cultivation is not low. If we fight them, we may not get any benefits. Moreover, if we anger them, not only will we not be able to kill them, I’m afraid we may not even be able to save our own lives.” Wei Ziqing said worriedly.

Wei Wuhen was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Since the open way doesn't work, let's just do it secretly!"

"Daddy means..."

"Have you forgotten that my Night Demon clan has a unique kind of aphrodisiac? Just by inhaling a little bit, one will become unconscious and at the mercy of others. Once we control those people, their lives will be in our hands." Wei Wuhen raised the corners of his lips, his eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty cold light.

"Dad, this thing is too dangerous. If they find it..."

"So what if they find out?" Wei Wuhen interrupted Wei Ziqing coldly, "Even if they find out, they have already lost the ability to resist! It's up to us to decide how to deal with them!"

"Daddy is wise! I will do as you tell me! Before daybreak, I will take a dozen secret guards back to find them!" Wei Ziqing said excitedly.

"Well, go ahead. Your father will be waiting for your news!!"

"Yes!" Wei Ziqing accepted the order respectfully, turned around and left the hall, disappearing into the night.

Not long after Wei Ziqing left, a figure suddenly walked out from the darkness. Looking at the direction where Wei Ziqing left, he raised a cold arc on the corner of his mouth, "Wei Wuhen, Wei Wuhen, I originally thought that you were only interested in the position of the Night Demon Clan leader. Now it seems that you are not only ambitious, but also cruel and ruthless. In this case, I can only be rude to you."

After saying this, he turned around and disappeared.

……

The other side.

Feng Muchuan had already arrived near Ye Guyun's bedroom. At this moment, the hall was dark all around. Except for a few palace lanterns that still emitted a faint light, the rest of the hall was pitch black.

The cold wind blew in from outside the door, making the originally dim hall even more eerie and terrifying.

On the bed in the middle of the bedroom, there lay a pale, unshaven man. He was dressed very thinly and exuded an unpleasant smell from his whole body.

This man was Ye Guyun.

His eyes were half-open and half-closed, staring blankly at the void in front of him, as if he didn't feel the cold at all. Beside him stood three guards of different heights, all of whom had evil smiles on their faces.

"What do you think? It's so cold, should we pour a few buckets of hot water on him to warm him up?" One of the tall guards said with a smile.

"Haha!! Your idea is good, how about we give it a try?" another guard of medium height replied.

"If you ask me, we should take off his shirt first to prevent it from getting wet!" the short guard rubbed his palms and said excitedly.
