Feng Yao’s lips curled into a wicked smile. "Just say it was a precaution, Sha Mo. You’re lucky that my husband likes your daughter; otherwise, you would have become his slaves like Jiu Moze and Jiu Mozu."

"What?" Sha Mo broke out in a cold sweat and glanced at Jiu Moze and Jiu Mozu. "Are they really his slaves? What about Ku Shenzu?"

"Father-in-law, you don’t need to panic, okay?" Sha Mo’s lips twitched at Zhang Fei [5]’s shamelessness. "I enslaved Jiu Moze and Jiu Mozu because they wanted to kill me in the past, but I have no direct grudges with Ku Shenzu, so I didn’t enslave him. As for you, Feng Yao only implanted her unique flame into your body, and she will remove it once the situation in this universe is safe."

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Fei [5] created a qi screen, which shows his fight with Feng Yao against those shadowy creatures in the Cangxuan Domain. "Huh? What are those creatures?"

"They are shadowy creatures, and they come from the core of this universe." Sha Mo looked at Zhang Fei [5] and Feng Yao in shock. "As you can see for yourself, their strength is simply too powerful, father-in-law. We already used our full strength when we fought those creatures a while ago, but we could only kill a few of them. For now, those creatures have not appeared in this Paradise Realm, and they only appeared in the Ancient Realm. However, it is not impossible that they will appear in this realm one day, so I took some precautions to keep everything safe. If the fight continues in this realm, we will not be ready if those creatures suddenly appear here. You may not like my way of dealing with this problem, but I have no other choice but to do it."

Sha Mo was truly shocked to listen to Zhang Fei [5]’s explanations, but he was even more shocked to hear that Feng Yao couldn’t fight those shadowy creatures with her immense strength. "Are you really unable to fight those creatures, Empress Huo? What do you mean by the Ancient Realm?"

" Those creatures are truly powerful, and the two of us are powerless to face them." Sha Mo took a deep breath because he never knew there was another realm above the Paradise Realm. "The Ancient Realm is the next realm after this Paradise Realm. Since you’ve been to the Forbidden Land in the past, I can tell you that that domain is part of the Ancient Realm, including those mysterious merchants. For some reason, the Paradise Realm and the Ancient Realm are separated from each other, and cultivators from this realm cannot go there, but cultivators from that realm can come here."

"Did those mysterious merchants really come from the Ancient Realm?"

"Yes."

"No wonder they’re so strong," Sha Mo muttered to himself. "Can those shadowy creatures come to this Paradise Realm?"

Feng Yao shook her head. "We don’t have an answer to that question right now, but the possibility of those creatures invading this Paradise Realm remains. For now, we don’t need unnecessary fuss, so my husband and I decided to control all demon races, especially those who haven’t yet joined our side. I want you and your fellow race members to watch over this domain twenty-four hours non-stop, and we will release you all from our control once we find a solution to get rid of those creatures."

"This-"

"Husband, I have ordered our members to monitor all areas in our domain."

Sha Mo nodded to his wife, Sha Yuan. "What do we need to do besides monitoring our domain?"

"Nothing." Sha Mo was confused by Zhang Fei’s answer. "For now, you and your clan members only need to focus on monitoring this domain, father-in-law, and you must contact me immediately if those creatures suddenly appear in this domain. If we’re careless, and they appear in large numbers, then we won’t be able to stop them. They will control the powerful cultivators in this realm, especially the beasts and demons, just like in the Ancient Realm."

"I see." Sha Mo suddenly realized something. "How did you two manage to go to the Ancient Realm? Why have I never heard of a path to that realm?"

"Haha," Feng Yao softly laughed. "Actually, the Paradise Realm and the Ancient Realm are almost the same, and the cultivators’ cultivation bases in that realm are on par with those in this realm. However, the people from the Ancient Clans are stronger because they’ve existed for longer, and they possess some things that the people from this realm don’t. My husband can take you to that realm, but the situation there is out of control with the appearance of those shadowy creatures, and we need people to monitor all the domains in this realm."

"Father."

"Hmm?" Sha Mo looked at his son, Sha Huo. "What’s wrong, Huo’er?"

Sha Huo looked at Zhang Fei [5] and Sha Qingge. "Father, I never dreamed of becoming the demon god of our race, but my sister does, so I hope you’ll be willing to pass on your strength to her in the future."

Sha Mo’s face darkened after his son said that, and he looked at Sha Qingge, who lowered her head in fear. For generations, the demon god of their demon race had been male, and there had never been a single woman who held that position. In the past, he wanted to pass on his strength to his first son, but he was killed, so he thought about passing on his position to his second son in the future.

Sha Huo spoke again. "Father, my sister has not yet completely fallen in love with Zhang Fei [5], but feelings have clearly grown in her heart. I understand your wish for me to inherit your position, but I am not interested in that, and I only want to live my life freely. Besides, I am sure no one will object to her becoming the demon god of our demon race if she marries him in the future, and I believe our demon race will be even more prosperous, especially with the support of Empress Huo and the other demon gods."

Sha Mo looked at Zhang Fei [5] with a strange look. He couldn’t understand how a lust demon like him could conquer Feng Yao, Qi Qingxiu, and Ye Mingran. Moreover, Nalan Shizhe recognized him as her son-in-law, and Wu Mian seemed loyal to him.

"Father." Sha Qingge called softly.

Sha Mo sighed and looked at his daughter. "Do you like him, Qingge?"

"I do." Sha Qingge nodded slightly. "As my brother said, I haven’t completely fallen in love with him, but I already have feelings for him."

Sha Mo found it hard to believe that his daughter would have such feelings for Zhang Fei [5], but her words and expression clearly showed that she had indeed begun to fall in love with him.

Sha Yuan sent a voice transmission to her husband, making Sha Mo even more confused about the relationship between Zhang Fei [5] and Sha Qingge.

Sha Mo inhaled deeply. "Qingge, I don’t mind if you fall in love with him and want to be with him, but I won’t talk about the matter of the next demon god of our race today. For now, I want you to focus on your cultivation, and you must strive to reach the 3-Sun Celestial Venerable Realm as soon as possible. Once you reach that stage, we will discuss this matter again."

"I’m not in a rush about that matter, father." Sha Qingge looked at her father. "Furthermore, you are still capable of leading our demon race for a long time, so we don’t need to discuss that matter today."

"Yes,"

Zhang Fei [5] immediately spoke. "Father-in-law, I will take Qingge to train in my private place, and she will be strong in several aspects when she returns. At that time, no demons from your demon race will be able to match her, including you."

"Hmm?" Sha Mo raised an eyebrow, a little annoyed. "Can you really help my daughter to surpass me, kid?"

"Haha," Zhang Fei [5] laughed. "Aren’t I the proof, Father-in-law? My cultivation is far below yours, but I can do far more than you. Feng Yao, Qi Qingxiu, and Ye Mingran are also willing to become my wives."

’Tch! This shameless brat! I don’t understand how this brat managed to win their hearts! I didn’t want my daughter to fall in love with a lust demon with many wives like him, but it seems it’s too late now.’ Sha Mo was really angry about the matter. "You can take my daughter with you, and I hope she has surpassed me when she comes back. If she can do that, I won’t mind if she becomes the next demon god of our demon race."

Zhang Fei [5] smiled. "You don’t need to worry about that, father-in-law. I won’t say too much now, and you’ll see the results in the next few years. Since our business here is finished, I will send them back to their domains, and I will take my little princess with me."

"Go... take my daughter with you now, or I’ll change my mind."

Sha Qingge hugged her father, mother, and brother. "I’ll go now, and I’ll come back once I’ve become truly strong."

After Feng Yao and Huo Ling entered his body, Zhang Fei [5] sent those demon gods back to their domains. He sent Sha Qingge to his training space and left the Heavenly Fiend Demon Domain.

"I’ll be going now."

Sha Yuan approached her husband, rubbing his hands. "Husband, I understand your feelings, but I’m sure our daughter will be happy with him, and she’ll be a powerful demon when she returns."

"I hope so."
