Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress-Chapter 164

Chapter 164 - Everyone Can Rest Assured, Everything’s Alright Now

"My wife..."

Ning Yechen gazed at Luo Ruying and called out softly.

Before he could continue his explanation, Luo Ruying raised her hand to interrupt him.

"Let’s talk about it when we get home..."

Luo Ruying’s expression was calm, revealing neither joy nor anger, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking...

This made Ning Yechen even more nervous.

Could my wife be really angry...?

In contrast to Ning Yechen’s anxiety and the watchful eyes of Ye Tianshen and the others, Yue Qingyou had a faint smile on her face.

After the Immortal-Demon battle, the entire Nanli City was in ruins, with collapsed walls and debris scattered everywhere.

The ground was either riddled with craters or had deep, bottomless pits and cracks. It no longer resembled the prosperous city it once was.

Even the sky above Nanli City was shattered like broken glass, with cracks in the void visible everywhere, a rare and devastating sight in the mortal realm...

The vast Nanli City was now left with only Nanli Academy, which had luckily survived thanks to its protective formation.

The citizens and cultivators of Nanli City gathered within and around Nanli Academy, looking at the once bustling city reduced to ruins, their hearts filled with sorrow.

For many, this city held the fruits of their lifelong efforts, their homes...

The grand Nanli City was gone in the blink of an eye.

Luo Ruying, seeing the state of Nanli City, couldn’t help but feel regret and guilt.

The Dao Immortal Clan had come specifically for her. It was because she was here that Nanli City had been implicated.

The place where their house once stood was now just a deep pit...

Now, let alone going home, their home was gone...

Ning Yechen looked at Luo Ruying, who was staring blankly in the direction of their former home, and then turned to Yue Qingyou.

Without needing Ning Yechen to say anything, Yue Qingyou nodded slightly and slowly floated into the air under the watchful eyes of everyone.

"Restore!"

Yue Qingyou looked down at Nanli City from high above and parted her red lips slightly to speak.

As her words fell, it was as if the laws of heaven and earth were stirred. An indescribable spiritual energy rippled through the entire city like waves!

Most of the cultivators present only felt a faint sense of strangeness, not understanding what had happened until they heard the exclamations from those around them.

"Quick... Look!"

"The buildings are being restored!"

"How, how is this possible?!"

"Could this be a divine miracle?!"

Everyone looked up, witnessing stones and vegetation flying through the air.

The destroyed houses were rapidly rebuilt, and the uprooted plants regrew...

The cracked earth closed up, the shattered void healed, and the deep craters were filled...

In a matter of moments, Nanli City, which had been in ruins just a moment ago, was completely renewed, restored to its former glory.

There was no trace of the terrifying Immortal-Demon battle that had just taken place...

This scene was truly breathtaking, a miracle in their eyes.

Everyone’s mouths gaped open in astonishment.

What kind of celestial art or secret technique is this...?

After accomplishing all this, Yue Qingyou slowly descended from the sky and once again stood quietly and respectfully beside Luo Ruying.

Everyone looked at Yue Qingyou with newfound awe...

Qi Yuan’s heart was filled with shock, unable to calm down for a long time.

So this maid sister, who was always cold to her, was actually this powerful...

Thankfully, she didn’t seem to really want to kill her.

Luo Ruying was also surprised.

She had vaguely guessed that Yue Qingyou’s cultivation and strength were extraordinary, but she hadn’t expected her to be this terrifying.

To be able to achieve such feats and completely disregard the restrictions of the mortal realm’s Heavenly Dao, her realm was likely the legendary Transcendent Immortal...!

"My wife, let’s go..."

"Let’s go home."

As Luo Ruying was still immersed in shock, Ning Yechen smiled and extended his hand towards her.

Luo Ruying looked at his hand, and without much hesitation, she slowly reached out and placed her hand in his...

Ning Yechen gently grasped Luo Ruying’s slender and soft hand. Holding their child in one arm and leading Luo Ruying with the other, he turned to leave.

Seeing this, Xia Guo mustered up his courage and asked from behind,

"Th-Then, Mr. Ning... no, esteemed Demon Lord, what about us...?"

Everyone present focused their attention on Ning Yechen, their hearts filled with anxiety.

Their lives were hanging by a thread, depending on his decision...

Tens of thousands of demons were staring at them with predatory eyes, creating an immense sense of pressure...

Ning Yechen turned around, only then remembering Xia Guo and the others still kneeling on the ground.

He had been so focused on his wife and child that he had completely forgotten about them...

"My apologies, everyone. I’m afraid we caused a bit of a disturbance due to some personal matters."

"Everyone can rest assured, everything’s alright now~"

"If there’s nothing else, please return to your homes and disperse~"

Everyone: "..."

Ning Yechen waved his hand at the crowd with a friendly smile.

If they didn’t know his identity as the Demon Lord, they would probably mistake him for a kind and amiable ordinary person...

Although Ning Yechen had said everything was fine and they could go home, the crowd didn’t feel that way.

With the Demon Lord Ning Yechen still present, and tens of thousands of demons watching them, this didn’t seem like everything was alright at all...!

They were terrified!

Ning Yechen noticed that no one dared to move and realized this. He also waved his hand towards the demons in the sky.

"You all may withdraw as well."

"Yes!!"

The demons slowly stepped into the distorted void and disappeared.

Ning Yechen, holding Luo Ruying’s hand, slowly departed with the crowd watching...

It wasn’t until Ning Yechen, Yue Qingyou, and the others completely disappeared from sight that everyone realized they could move again. They shakily stood up, their faces filled with disbelief.

We’re alive...

We’re still alive...!

The Demon Clan actually didn’t harm us!

Having narrowly escaped death, the crowd embraced each other, tears of joy streaming down their faces...

Xia Guo stood up, his legs weak, and almost collapsed again.

Fortunately, Lin Ya was beside him to support him.

Speaking up earlier had taken almost all his courage...

At that moment, shimmering white specks of light began to fall from the sky.

"Is it snowing again?"

Xia Guo looked up at the sky, tinged with the colors of sunset, and reached out to catch the falling specks.

He was surprised to find that it wasn’t snow falling from the sky, but shimmering spiritual energy!

Tiny specks of spiritual energy, like fine snow, drifted down.

Thousands of powerful immortals had perished in the mortal realm, their essence returning to heaven and earth, forming a shower of spiritual snow...

The concentration of spiritual energy in Nanli City at this moment reached an unprecedented level!

The people within Nanli City also couldn’t help but reach out their hands to welcome the falling specks of spiritual energy.

They had never seen such a dense concentration of spiritual energy visible to the naked eye...

Perhaps soon, the name of Nanli City would resound throughout the world...

Surviving an Immortal-Demon War unscathed was a legendary experience, rare in the world.

Although Nanli City had nearly been destroyed, in hindsight, it seemed like a fortuitous opportunity...
