Chapter 356: Lotus Moon Island
Unlike the Nine Continents Mainland and the Demon Realm Continent, the Demon Realm is filled with countless islands, varying in size and shape, scattered across the endless ocean like twinkling stars in the vast void.
It is said that the Demon Realm was once a complete landmass. Later, several supreme beings from other dimensions came to the Demon Realm and engaged in a great battle with over ten supreme Demon Ancestors. The countless islands were formed during this battle, as the external supreme beings were suppressed by the Yao Ancestor of the Demon Realm, leading to the fragmentation of the Demon Realm into numerous islands.
These islands vary greatly in size; some are only a few hundred feet across, while others can reach tens of thousands of kilometers, so large that they resemble massive landmasses. The population living on these islands has reached hundreds of thousands, but most inhabitants are powerful cultivators, as disasters like tsunamis frequently occur at sea, making survival difficult for ordinary people.
At the southernmost tip of the Demon Realm lies such an island called Lotus Moon Island.
Lotus Moon Island is not particularly large, measuring only ten thousand feet across. Among the many islands in the Demon Realm, it does not stand out much. However, it is renowned throughout the Demon Realm; even ordinary Supreme Combat Bodies dare not approach within a hundred miles of Lotus Moon Island. As for those below the Divine Realm, they treat the surrounding waters as a forbidden zone because the master of Lotus Moon Island is considered one of the supreme beings in the Demon Realm!
At dusk, countless women on Lotus Moon Island are busy with their own affairs. Most of these women are exceptionally beautiful and would be admired by many if seen outside. Their cultivation levels are also impressive, with quite a few being Supreme Combat Bodies. The entire Lotus Moon Island resembles a kingdom of women, and its fame is partly due to its abundance of stunning beauties.
"Master, this is an invitation sent by Lord Black Sword Demon Ancestor."
A melodious voice echoed near a lake deep within Lotus Moon Island. Upon closer inspection, the speaker was a young girl around eighteen years old, dressed in a purple gauze long dress. Her long black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her sparkling eyes resembled rare treasures. Her delicate skin was comparable to morning dew on white snow, combined with an ethereal aura that exuded lightness and grace. Although she still had a hint of youthful innocence, she could undoubtedly be considered a breathtaking beauty.
However, despite her extraordinary beauty, she lacked the grace that radiated from the woman standing before her. If she were likened to the most exquisite lotus flower in the mortal realm, then this woman beside her was akin to the most beautiful star in the sky. She stood there quietly as if even the entire world would pale in comparison to her appearance and demeanor—words could hardly describe her beauty.
"Xiu'er, do you know what Lord Black Sword Demon Ancestor means by sending this invitation?"
Crimson Lips parted slightly as Light and Graceful's voice flowed gently from the Stunning Woman's lips. Her words seemed to contain boundless charm that even Xiu'er could not help but shudder at.
"Xiu'er does not know; please enlighten me, Master." The girl slightly bowed her body and gazed respectfully at the graceful figure before her.
"My Xiu'er is truly a rare talent in the entire Demon Realm; can you not see through this matter? Or do you still need to conceal something from your master?" Upon hearing Xiu'er's response, the Stunning Woman smiled lightly and raised an eyebrow at the distant view as if she did not believe Xiu'er’s words.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiu'er bit her lip gently and turned her gaze toward this peerless beauty before her.
Lotus Moon Island's Diao Chan Xiu is hailed as one of the most outstanding talents in the past century within the Demon Realm. Having cultivated for only a few decades, she has already reached Saint Level Pinnacle and is undoubtedly considered a Monster among her peers. Talented individuals often possess some pride; Diao Chan Xiu is no exception. Very few among her contemporaries can earn her respect; however, when facing her master, she can only worship without daring to compare herself.
"If Xiu'er's guess is correct, then Black Sword Demon Ancestor probably wants Xiu'er to marry his disciple. He himself must value the power of his master and Master Gu, wanting to strengthen ties with you."
After a slight hesitation, Diao Chan Xiu organized her thoughts and slowly spoke. She knew her own worth; although she was talented, she was merely talented and not yet a strong individual. Even an average strong person would not be treated this way by Black Sword Demon Ancestor. The only possibility was the powerful master behind her and the even more mysterious Master Gu...
Slowly retracting her gaze from the horizon, the Stunning Woman turned her head towards Diao Chan Xiu, gently nodding. She would take Diao Chan Xiu as her disciple not because of her exceptional talent, but because of the purity of her heart. After living for countless years and seeing many talents, what she appreciated was Diao Chan Xiu's spiritual wisdom.
"You are correct. Although Black Sword Demon Ancestor appears to be looking for a partner for his disciple, in reality, he wants to form an alliance with me and you, Master Gu. Ever since you returned to the Demon Realm over four hundred years ago, such events have been continuous. Even Death Spirit Demon Ancestor has had similar thoughts."
"Master, what kind of person is Master Gu? Xiu'er has heard countless legends about her but has never seen her face even once."
As she spoke, her gaze involuntarily drifted towards the deepest part of Lotus Moon Island, where a strong curiosity welled up in her eyes. That forbidden place, which even someone of her status could not enter, was where her incredibly mysterious Master Gu was in seclusion.
"You are talking about Master Gu, huh? Her talent is probably unmatched in the entire Demon Realm; she is many times stronger than my master. Her beauty and grace could captivate anyone. If you saw her once, you would never forget it. However, she can also be quite foolish—foolish to an unbelievable extent..."
As if recalling something, a hint of confusion appeared in the eyes of the Stunning Woman. She sighed lightly, and a color flashed across her face that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.
"I heard that Master Gu seems to like a man who... is not from the Demon Realm..."
Gently biting her lip, Diao Chan Xiu fixed her gaze on her master, nervously asking, as if eager to know but afraid of being reprimanded. Yet the curiosity in her eyes was undeniable.
"I have only seen that person once, and it was on the battlefield." The Stunning Woman did not blame Diao Chan Xiu, but instead began to speak slowly, a hint of nostalgia coloring her expression.
Upon hearing that her master did not scold her but instead began to share a story, excitement surged within Diao Chan Xiu. Perhaps it was a woman's natural curiosity; there were very few things that could capture her interest, but this matter was enough to intrigue her. She found it hard to imagine what kind of man could make her seemingly perfect Master Gu fall for him.
"His appearance wasn't particularly handsome or extraordinary, but his demeanor was decent. At that time, his cultivation level was similar to yours; however, his combat strength far surpassed yours. Even those at the Initial Stage of Divine Realm were no match for him. Later on, he used the remnants of the soul left by the ancient War Ancestor to slaughter countless strong beings in our demon clan. His ruthlessness left a deep impression on my master..."
"And then what happened?" Seeing that her master had only shared part of the story without finishing it, Diao Chan Xiu became anxious.
"Later... later he died... Well, let's not talk about this anymore. As for Black Sword Demon Ancestor, he is quite capable and forming a good relationship with him wouldn't hurt. However, I don't want to pry too much into your personal matters; everything should be decided by you. But I heard that his disciple is also an outstanding individual among his peers, having reached mid-stage Divine Realm cultivation in just over two hundred years. What do you think?"
"If he can reach the Pinnacle of Divine Realm within a thousand years, then Xiu'er agrees to cultivate together with him." After a brief hesitation, Diao Chan Xiu replied.
"You are not just blatantly rejecting someone, are you..." Upon hearing Diao Chan Xiu's response, the Stunning Woman couldn't help but smile wryly. If reaching the Divine Realm Pinnacle were that easy, then those at the Pinnacle of Divine Realm wouldn't be called Super Strong Beings. A thousand years is far too short!
"Actually, Xiu'er was planning to reach the Realm of the Ancestor Deity in a thousand years..." Seeing that her master showed no signs of blame, Diao Chan Xiu immediately added with a smile.
Reaching the Realm of the Ancestor Deity in a thousand years—this girl really dares to dream. The Stunning Woman rolled her eyes in exasperation, thinking about how long it took her to reach this level. Was it a million years? Ten million years? It seemed like it was even longer than that. Moreover, it was due to her good fortune and countless opportunities along the way; otherwise, she would never have reached that realm in her lifetime.
She was just about to scold her disciple when suddenly her expression changed dramatically, and two piercing cold glints surged in her eyes.
"Who are you, Your Excellency, to brazenly intrude upon my Lotus Moon Island? Do you disregard the rules of Lotus Moon Island?"
The icy words spilled from her lips as her gaze like lightning fixed on a certain spot in the Void. However, her face was filled with seriousness; if not for some restrictions on the island, she wouldn't have been able to detect the visitor. This person possesses great strength!
At this moment, Diao Chan Scholar sensed that something was amiss. Could it be that someone has invaded Lotus Moon Island? That’s impossible! There is a defensive array outside Lotus Moon Island; even an ordinary Ancient God Strongman couldn't enter silently. Who could this person be?
"You must be the Night Lotus Demon Ancestor, right? It's been hundreds of years; do you still remember me?"
A faint voice echoed from the Void as a black figure slowly emerged from half of the Void...
