Yang Tian smiled faintly and said, "The Demon World is located at the southernmost edge of the cosmos, with its boundaries divided into four regions: Southeast, Northwest, each presided over by a Demon King. Am I correct?"

"Master Yang speaks wisely!"

Seeing that Yang Tian had such a vast knowledge of the Demon World—and even understood its cosmic placement—caught everyone off guard. Not even Nalam dared to entertain such thoughts, for few in the entire Demon World knew this.

At that moment, Nalanfu suddenly recalled the speculation her father, Nolan Xiongde, had made about Yang Tian's origins the previous day.

"The son of the Devil Emperor?" It seemed plausible! Otherwise, how could he be so deeply familiar with the demons?

With this in mind, Nalam calmed himself and said, "Since Master Yang knows so much about our Demon World, I suppose there's no need to elaborate further. Surely Master Yang is aware of whom we once worshipped in the Northern Territory?"

Who?

Who else could it be?

Hearing these words, Yang Tian chuckled internally, for it was none other than the unfortunate being he had devoured, gaining dominion over the northern demon region—the Demon among Demons!

Seeing Yang Tian smile without uttering a word, Nalanfu understood that he was aware. She continued, "Since the fall of the Demon Ancestor, we haven't had a true Demon Lord in the north. But to commemorate the Demon Ancestor, we hold a ritual known as the Northern Demon Festival!"

"Demon Worship?" Yang Tian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow in curiosity. After all, worshipping demons was typically reserved for after their death. This was the first time Yang Tian had heard of it.

Noticing Yang Tian's unfamiliarity with this, Nalam laughed and said, "Well, Demon Worship is both a tribute to the Demon Ancestor and a means to measure and refine the powers of potential Demon Lords from the northern regions. It's split into comparison and refinement categories!"

"Are they martial arts masters?"

After a moment of contemplation upon Nalam's words, Yang Tian asked, "And how does this relate to the Gluttony Bone?"

"It doesn't! However, every hundred years, it is the Blue Demon who oversees the sacrifices made during this ritual! And the Gluttony Bone rests in the hands of the Blue Demon!" Nalanfu laughed.

Blue Demon King?

The moment Yang Tian heard this name, fragmented memories of the Blue Demon surfaced from the one he had devoured.

Blue Demon King—or perhaps it would be more fitting to call him Blue Demon Lord, to honor his reputation as a devourer of demons, wouldn't it?

In his prime, the Blue Demon King was a dazzling genius in the north.

Hundred-Year Monsters, Sunroe Beasts of the century, and Thousand-Year Infinite Truth Beasts—all were renowned figures of the Demon World during that era!

Naturally, the grand True Demon during that time wouldn't have paid attention to mere demons in the God's eyes realm.

However, as fate would have it, this Blue Demon Monarch brazenly visited the Demon Master within the Infinite Domain. It was during this encounter that the Demon Master scorned a seemingly insignificant lesser demon, and the Blue Demon King's memories of him were shattered as a result.

"A Magic Treasure?"

From piecing together those recollections, Yang Tian now understood.

Even if it wasn't intentional at the time.

Listening to Yang Tian speak and observing the phantom shadow looming behind him, Nalam found it increasingly hard to breathe.

This was an overwhelming suppression of an elite on another.

The pressure convinced Nalanfu that Yang Tian must be the son of the Devil Emperor.

Believing that Yang Tian had discerned the Nolan Family's schemes, Nalanfu hurriedly said, "Yang… Master Yang's chastisement is deserved! My Nolan Family's actions have indeed been selfish, but they were also for your benefit. I beg your wisdom, Master, to reveal the whereabouts of the Gluttony Bone!"

"Hmph!"

Hearing Nalam's plea, Yang Tian let out a cold snort. Waving away the ghostly aura, he said, "How audacious of you! That's all. Focus on attending this Alchemy Assembly!"

Attend?

Nalanfu was momentarily stunned.

Yang Tian scowled and asked, "Why? Haven't you heard of Benzene?"

"No, no, no! Please, listen to me!"

Nalanfu hurriedly waved his hand and, despite his doubts, immediately responded, "Rest assured, Master. I will make the arrangements. That concludes it!"

With that, Nalanfu quickly left.

The oppressive phantom of the Demon Ancestor moments ago had truly shaken her to the core. She wanted nothing more than to leave Yang Tian's treasure chamber and never return!

The same went for Nalam. Master Lu followed after Nalanfu, his face pale. However, before they could leave completely, Yang Tian brandished a jade slip, tossing it toward Nalam. "Take it!"

"This… What is this?"

Nalanfu stared at the jade slip in hand, puzzled.

"These are the Alchemy insights regarding Benzene oil," Yang Tian said lightly.

Yang Tian's Alchemy insights?

Hearing this, Nalam and Master Lu were overjoyed!

After all, wasn't this equivalent to gaining the expertise of an Alchemy Master?

Yet, recalling the earlier unsettling events, Nalanfu quickly asked, "But… but—"

"It's not for you to worry about! Do your job right, and there will be rewards!"

With that, Yang Tian slowly closed his eyes, silently dismissing them from his presence.

Realizing this, Master Lu and Nalam bowed deeply toward Yang Tian before departing Baoshan with simultaneous feelings of joy and unease.

Not long after their departure, however, Yang Tian opened his eyes, smiling faintly as he muttered, "They've been thoroughly frightened!"

"A bluff? Master, didn't you just say that it wasn't the Devil Emperor's power? What did you mean by that?"

On the other side, Chilean Fairy, confused by Yang Tian's words, questioned him.

Seeing her puzzlement, Yang Tian made no effort to hide the truth. Smiling, he said, "Did you not know? Our dear Benben only recently arrived in the Demon World. The Devil Emperor's son? Earlier, that was merely the unique feature of my Merit Magic!"

Chilean Fairy nodded slightly, though doubts still lingered in her mind.

Few were aware of Yang Tian's ascension—only five knew his secret!

Chilean Fairy, Zhou Zhaozhong, Fu Qingming, Liu Hai…

Among them, Zhou Zhaozhong was already dead. Chilean Fairy now served under Yang Tian, much like Fu Qingming did. While Liu Hai's whereabouts were currently unknown, being a mere strong demon, he posed no threat or concern.

Given Yang Tian's enigmatic origins, it was clear he couldn't be the Devil Emperor's son. After all, would the descendant of a grand Demon King be relegated to the Lower Realm and forced to fight his way back to the Demon World?

Yet, not long after, Chilean Fairy raised a concern!

Though Nalanfu and Master Lu had been thoroughly intimidated by Yang Tian, the same could not be said for Nolan Xiong, the patriarch of the Nolan Family.

Even if Yang Tian had frightened him before, Nolan Xiong's cunning nature guaranteed that, upon hearing Nalanfu's report, he would seek an audience with Yang Tian, prepared to confront the enigmatic leader of Lanxing.

Would this unforeseen complication jeopardize them?

Concerned, Chilean Fairy voiced her worries. As a servant of Yang Tian, any trouble he faced would fall upon her to resolve first.

Hearing Chilean Fairy's words, Yang Tian smiled faintly and replied, "You're correct. Therefore, moving forward, you will need to rely on yourself!"

"Me? Master, what do you mean?" Chilean Fairy asked, perplexed.

Yang Tian waved his hand leisurely. Instantly, a grand restriction enveloped the treasure chamber, isolating its aura from the outside world. Then he retrieved some treasures, performing an alchemical sacrificial ritual mid-air as he laughed, "To grant you the power of the Infinite True Magic Realm!"
