The tone of voice almost went so far as to call these two Little demons mere country bumpkins. Though they felt a bit angry, they couldn’t bring themselves to retaliate, for everything in this world was beyond their imagination.

"Where is this place?" Ghost Spider asked in a deep voice.

"The future Demon Realm!" Lin Fang said with a smile.

Though his voice was light, it struck Ghost Spider like a bolt from the blue, continually echoing in his mind.

The Demon Realm, as the name suggests, is the world of the Demon Clan. In the current Three Realms, although the Demon Clan is one of the major clans, they live in constant peril, with many monsters facing various crises from a young age.

It wasn’t that no one had proposed the concept of the Demon Realm. The closest attempt was that of the Demon Court; had they succeeded in seizing control as the Master of the Three Realms, the Demon Realm would have been created. Unfortunately, after that near success, the entire Demon Clan never recovered, turning into loose sand, vulnerable to exploitation.

For the world to now be called the Demon Realm was indeed shocking for Ghost Spider.

His gaze began to survey the area referred to as the Demon Realm, only to realize that this world was far more vast than he had imagined.

With an excited heart, Ghost Spider leapt into the air, flying upward to look into the distance, yet he still couldn’t see the edge of the world.

"No need to look further, this world might not be as large as the Three Realms, but it is certainly much larger than Luzhou in the North!" Lin Fang said, laughing.

He could understand Ghost Spider’s excitement, as every monster living in Luzhou in the North harbored dreams of the Demon Clan’s rise.

Unfortunately, over the long years, numerous failures and deaths gradually wore away their hope, but just like the ashes that still hold a spark, given the right fuel, they could still ignite a fiery blaze.

"I’m not dreaming, am I? There really is a Demon Realm," Ghost Spider murmured to himself.

Everything today felt like a beautiful dream, too good to be real.

Then he saw a dazzling golden light not far away, where the Sky-reaching Star Tree was located, and he could faintly make out pavilions and towers.

"What is that place?" Ghost Spider asked curiously.

"That is the Demon Court," Wolf King said with a sigh.

"Demon Court!" Ghost Spider murmured in shock, realizing as he looked towards Lin Fang, wondering whether this was the legendary Demon Emperor.

With this thought, everything seemed to make sense. Only the Demon Emperor could create such a vast Demon Realm, only the Demon Emperor could make a supreme Sword Immortal like White Ape submit, and only the Demon Emperor could rebuild the Demon Court.

A look of excitement appeared on his face, knowing that for so many years, the Demon Emperor had been a flag bearer for the Demon Clan, endlessly rallying those monsters who longed for freedom.

Even Ghost Spider had immense respect for the Demon Emperor; when he had heard of the Demon Emperor’s fall, he had been despondent for a while. But now he understood that it was just the shedding of the celestial shell by the emperor.

Seeing Ghost Spider’s fervent look of admiration, Lin Fang guessed what he was thinking.

He softly said, "Don’t be mistaken, I am not the Demon Emperor."

"Ah!" This time it was Ghost Spider’s turn to be surprised. This man was not the Demon Emperor, so what was this all about?

Lin Fang didn’t explain in detail; he truly didn’t know how best to explain and decided to let the Ghost Spider see for himself.

While taking the Ghost Spider and others to the increasingly structured Demon Court, Lin Fang asked curiously, "This mask on your face is very interesting; may I take a look?"

The Ghost Spider said with a smile, "You flatter me, sir. This mask was made by a good friend of mine. Feel free to take a look."

Having said that, he asked two little monsters to remove their masks and hand them over to Lin Fang.

Lin Fang slowly took the white mask, feeling its slight chill to the touch; it was made of clay and coated with a special white material, with runes etched onto it.

Lin Fang examined the mask in his hands with great interest, realizing through it that the mask maker was undoubtedly a genius in runes.

These runes clearly hadn’t been learned through a systematic study, thus appearing rather rough in some details, but the ability to comprehend runes on one’s own was impressive indeed.

Such a person, given the right opportunity, could certainly become a powerful Artifact Refiner.

"He is indeed a very talented individual," Lin Fang said with a smile, though he had already decided to invite this person to join his faction.

Such craftsmen with boundless potential were rare in this era and represented the foundation of a power.

Next, he began touring the Demon Court with the Ghost Spider; not knowing the full scope until now, the Ghost Spider was taken aback and realized how much of a "frog in the well" he had been compared to the people here. His own modest reputation was hardly worth mentioning.

It was then that he truly appreciated the honor of being invited by Lin Fang.

At the heart of the Demon Court, a splendid palace that would serve as the council hall for future discussions had been constructed.

The grand palace complemented the tall Starry Sky Tree, creating a harmonious sight.

"This humble one has seen Great Lord Lin!" the Demon Master greeted Lin Fang with a smile on his face.

Although Lin Fang and Feng Jiu hadn’t formed a direct alliance or determined their respective roles, to the people of the Demon Court, Lin Fang and Feng Jiu were like a married couple, with Feng Jiu as the Demon Emperor and Lin Fang acting as the Empress.

"Old man, you actually stayed here. Aren’t you afraid that Feng Jiu will lose to me?" Lin Fang asked jokingly.

"This humble one has complete confidence in His Majesty. However, I didn’t expect you to act so swiftly in recruiting such a capable person," the Demon Master replied with a laugh.

His eyes sized up the Ghost Spider; having lived through countless years, no one could escape his wise gaze.

He quickly recognized the Ghost Spider’s potential — a Sword Cultivator who had the opportunity to step onto the Supreme Sword Way. Now that he had decided to follow Lin Fang, his future achievements would not be modest.

Meanwhile, the Ghost Spider gazed in admiration at the seemingly aged man before him; this was the legendary Demon Master.

The right-hand man of the Demon Emperor, the true core figure of the Demon Court; for years, this old man had tirelessly worked to revive the Demon Court, never pausing, and had become a symbol of the Demon Clan’s resilient spirit in Luzhou in the North. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

For a descendant of the Demon Clan like the Ghost Spider, he was an idol, the object of admiration since childhood.
