Divine King of Honour Chapter 1804: Leaving the Demon Realm

Following his discussion with the Demon God Palace Master,

the Master departed.

Xu Nian turned toward Lan Xi.

Right now, Lan Xi stood at the vital phase of her transformation.

Rather than interrupting her, Xu Nian brought her inside the Chaos Divine Palace.

Moments later, Xu Nian stepped out from the cave.

To his shock, during the return journey, Xu Nian met the Female Demon God who had descended from the Divine Realm.

"Are you planning to return to the Immortal Realm?" the Female Demon God inquired.

"Uh?" Xu Nian was startled.

He never anticipated such a question from her.

"I plan to return to the Immortal Realm, do you intend to join me, Demon God Lord?" Xu Nian asked smilingly.

"Yes, I do plan to go with you," the Female Demon God responded.

Xu Nian felt surprised once more.

Was the Female Demon God truly heading to the Immortal Realm alongside him?

Perhaps the fragment they seek lies in the Immortal Realm?

Astonishment flickered in Xu Nian’s eyes.

"I intend to go to the Immortal Realm to find something; if you’re returning there, you can lead the way," the Female Demon God explained.

Xu Nian stood stunned.

Is that item truly located in the Immortal Realm?

Regardless, it clearly isn’t in the Demon Realm.

In this period, the Female Demon God had scoured the whole Demon Realm territory.

Evidently, she found nothing.

"In that case, accompany me then, Demon God Lord," Xu Nian said with a grin.

"Alright, in three days, I’ll meet you at the square," the Female Demon God stated before vanishing.

Xu Nian could only feel a bit helpless.

He hadn’t settled on leaving in three days.

Yet all matters here were resolved, leaving no reason to linger.

Three days it would be!

Xu Nian then headed back to the Phoenix Clan’s grand hall.

There, he announced his upcoming departure to everyone.

"You’re leaving?" Luo Shang furrowed her brow deeply.

Though she foresaw Xu Nian’s exit, the timing caught her off guard.

"Yes, I originally came here to rescue Little Yu, and now that Little Yu is free, there’s no need for me to stay any longer," Xu Nian clarified.

Luo Shang stayed quiet.

Next to her, Huo Tianqiu remained silent too.

"Husband, no matter where you go, I’ll go with you," Luo Xue declared.

"Yes, me too!" Huo Baiyu added eagerly.

"Bai Yu, you should stay; the Demon Realm is more suitable for your cultivation," Xu Nian declined.

"But Master, I want to stay by your side," Huo Baiyu pleaded.

Xu Nian shook his head smilingly, "A master leads you to the door of cultivation, but personal progress is on your own. I’ve taught you all you need to know; the rest is up to you."

Hearing those words, Huo Baiyu pouted in reluctance but relented, "Alright, can I go to the Immortal Realm to find you once I’ve succeeded in my cultivation?"

"I’ll be waiting for you in the Divine World," Xu Nian smiled.

"Alright, I’ll definitely go find Master in the Divine World by then!" Huo Baiyu vowed firmly.

Divine World?

Huo Tianqiu and Luo Shang pondered silently.

They each formed quiet resolves in their hearts.

To triumph over the tribulation and ascend to the Divine World.

"Little Yu, what about you? Are you coming back to the Immortal Realm with me or staying in the Demon Realm?" Xu Nian questioned.

"Big brother, I..." Xu Yu hesitated.

Xu Nian grasped it instantly and smiled, "Alright, then you stay in the Demon Realm, and I’ll wait for you in the Divine World."

"No problem, big brother, I will definitely succeed in crossing the tribulation," Xu Yu affirmed with resolve.

Xu Nian chuckled at that, "By the way, see if you can find the whereabouts of the Bull Demon King in the Demon Realm. I didn’t seem to encounter him this time."

"Sure, I’ll definitely find the old bull; I did meet him once before," Xu Yu promised.

Xu Nian nodded approvingly.

Next, he faced Luo Shang, "Now that Sikong Wushang is dead, the Dragon Clan shouldn’t pose too much of a threat to the Phoenix Clan anymore. As for your father, he had no other choice."

Since the prior Demon God Ceremony events, tension lingered between Luo Shang and the Phoenix Emperor.

They hadn’t exchanged words since.

"I understand!" Luo Shang acknowledged with a nod.

Xu Nian nodded back, then regarded Huo Tianqiu, "The position of Vice Clan Leader in the Snake Clan should be taken back by the Clan Leader; I’m afraid I can’t hold this position."

"Actually, I also plan to resign as Snake Clan Leader and hand over the entire Snake Clan to Bai Yu, and then find a secluded place to cultivate in preparation for the divine tribulation," Huo Tianqiu revealed.

Surprise filled Xu Nian’s gaze as he looked at Luo Shang.

"Yes, I talked it over with Sister Huo; I intend to leave the Phoenix Clan and enter secluded cultivation with her," Luo Shang declared.

Xu Nian grasped the situation.

"That sounds good too," Xu Nian agreed, nodding.

The three days swiftly elapsed.

With Luo Xue accompanying him, Xu Nian reached the square.

Huo Baiyu, Ice Blue, Xu Yu, and Luo Xia gathered to bid him farewell.

Yet Luo Shang and Huo Tianqiu stayed away.

A wave of relief washed over Xu Nian.

"Big brother, why not linger a while longer?" Xu Yu pleaded.

"I can't; urgent matters await me. My master in the Immortal Realm faces the divine tribulation soon," Xu Nian explained.

"Be safe, big brother," Xu Yu murmured, reluctant to part.

Xu Nian clapped Xu Yu's shoulder reassuringly.

"Ice Blue, your soul contract is dissolved—you're free at last," Xu Nian announced smilingly.

"Master!" Ice Blue cried out, thrilled yet tinged with sorrow.

Her meager cultivation offered no real support to Xu Nian, and she knew it.

Xu Nian beamed warmly.

After a short exchange with the group, he departed alongside Luo Xue and the Female Demon God.

A band of demons from Heavenly Dragon Divine Mountain trailed them as well.

Xu Nian and his group vanished through teleportation.

Atop a nearby lofty peak, two alluring silhouettes stood watching.

Luo Shang and Huo Tianqiu were those very figures.

"You've fallen for Xu Nian, haven't you?" Huo Tianqiu queried with a grin, eyeing Xu Nian's vanishing spot before turning to Luo Shang.

"Don't you harbor the same feelings?" Luo Shang countered sharply.

Laughter bubbled from both women.

"Deep down, we realize we're mere transients in his grand journey," Luo Shang confessed, her voice turning melancholic.

"True, our hearts yearn for him, yet his doesn't beat for us," Huo Tianqiu admitted with a bitter smile.

They saw it plainly.

No such love stirred in Xu Nian for them.

That very truth kept them from trailing after him.

Xu Nian's brilliance eclipsed all other men from their sight.

But alas, his heart held no place for them.

No romance could spark, not even a flicker.

Silence enveloped Luo Shang and Huo Tianqiu as they stared vacantly at the square.

Sadness gripped them, yet a spark of hope lingered faintly.

They dreamed of reuniting with Xu Nian in the Divine World, perhaps scripting a fresh tale.

"Time to go—let's cultivate!" Luo Shang proclaimed fiercely.

Huo Tianqiu nodded firmly, and together they teleported into the distance.
