"It's fine if he recognizes you as his master, but doesn't that mean my father is fine?" Hua Ruge continued: "As long as you listen to me for the time being, when I save father, there won't be a need to change anything."

After the sword spirit heard Hua Ruge's words, her voice became a lot more excited: "Is true dao okay?"

"Of course." Hua Ruge replied.

No matter how much of a bastard she was, she couldn't possibly steal his father's magic tool. Although she had never met him before, she still felt quite burdened by his actions.

Everyone watched as the Demon God's Sword circled around Hua Ruge, and finally let out a melodious screech, before slowly coming to a stop in front of Hua Ruge.

Hua Ruge reached out and grabbed the sword hilt with ease. Even though she did not recognize Hua Ruge as its master, she could still feel the surging power inside the sword.

When the people from the Demon God's Palace saw that Hua Ruge had grasped onto the Demon God's Sword and that the Demon God's Sword didn't have the slightest bit of resistance, they were stunned.

The Demon God's Sword had once again chosen its master. Their Demon God's Palace now had hope to rise again.

The elders were even more elated, and took the lead to bow down towards Hua Ruge. "Young Hall Master is mighty, I ask Young Hall Master to take charge of the overall situation."

After they declared their stance, their sect's disciples also knelt down, and shouted for Hua Ruge to take charge of the situation.

The other members of the direct line of descent looked at each other, they looked at the cup of the Demonic God which Tuoba Rui had trapped, then looked at the Demon God Sword in Hua Ruge's hands, and started to kneel down.

However, there were very few of them. Although they were not convinced, they did not take action against Hua Ruge, because it was clear that they could not beat him.

Hua Ruge naturally knew what she meant by taking charge of the situation. She had achieved her goal of letting her usurp the position of Demon God, but she would not take this final step.

"Everyone, thank you for your praise. What virtue or ability does this junior have to take on such a task?" Hua Ruge said.

One of the elders said, "The Demon God Sword has already recognized its master. Young Palace Master, there's no need to decline."

"That's right. Except for Young Hall Master, we can't think of a better candidate to take over the position of Demon God." Another elder said.

Listening to the voices that kept urging her to seize the throne, she stretched out her hand and pressed it down before saying, "Seniors, it's not that this junior is evasive, but rather that this junior is indeed unqualified. There is someone in this world more suitable than this junior."

Everyone originally thought that Hua Ruge was just being polite, after all, this kind of thing was always the same. Rejecting three times would make it difficult for them to agree, but from the sound of it, why did it sound like she really did not want to take the seat?

But it can't be right, right? If they didn't have the mind to, they wouldn't have secretly invited these two Sovereigns to assist them, and then forced them to serve as reinforcements.

Hua Ruge waited for the discussion to calm down before he said: "Everyone, everyone knows that my father is still alive. If you bring him back, would that be more appropriate than me?"

What?

Everyone in the demon god palace thought they heard wrongly. The old demon god had already disappeared for more than thirty years, but he was still alive?

"Is what Young Hall Master said true?" One of the Elders was so excited that his voice trembled.

Hua Ruge nodded his head, then slightly bowed towards Thunder God and Fire God, and said: "I ask that the two great uncles share their internal affairs regarding this matter."

Thor nodded, and then began to explain the matter of the demon god being sealed more than thirty years ago.

Everyone in the Demon God Palace was dumbstruck. Even though Thor hadn't said anything, they still knew who could seal the demon god.

Hua Ruge did not give them the chance to think about it further, and continued: "I am the subordinate of the Demon God, and the reason I want to retrieve my Demon God Sword is to welcome father back, what do you think?"

These elders were all loyal people, so after hearing that, they immediately expressed their stance, "It's a must to welcome the former Demon God back. Young Hall Master, please take charge of the situation for the time being. We will only have Young Hall Master follow our lead."

After experiencing this complete victory, the elders could be considered to have seen Hua Ruge's ability, with every step being the same. What was even more rare was that she had courage and charisma, and her methods seemed to be even stronger than the former demon gods.

Furthermore, Hua Ruge possessed the Demon God's Sword, and also the bloodline of the former devil god.

The current Demon God was standing inside the dragnet, and his eyes were almost popping out. Just as he wanted to speak up, Tuoba Rui and the dragnet withdrew him.

When the people from the Demon God Palace saw Hua Ruge bringing in the Fire God and the Thunder God, they knew that she wouldn't rest until she reached her goal, and also expressed that she would listen to Hua Ruge's orders.

These people's reactions were within Hua Ruge's plans, and she continued: "I thank everyone on behalf of father. We will set off in three days, everyone should go back and make some preparations."

The people in front of the palace then dispersed. Hua Ruge flipped his hand, kept his Demon God Sword, and once again thanked the Fire God and Thunder God.

The two Sovereigns had brought their rescue squads of Fiendgods with them, so there was no need for them to return. They instead set up camp outside the Demonic Palace.

They weren't worried about Hua Ruge's safety at all. With the devil god locked up and the devil god sword in Hua Ruge's hand, no one in the Demon God's Palace would be a match for her.

Furthermore, Hua Ruge was accompanying him, with their abilities, it was already considered good that they did not bully him.

That night, when Hua Ruge was looking at the staff member list to figure out who was going to go, he asked jokingly, "Did you scare the demon god today?"

"Huh?" Hua Ruge reacted for a moment, then laughed: "Don't say that you're outside, but even if you weren't, who would I be afraid of?"

Tuoba Rui chuckled. "Does that mean you don't have someone you're afraid of?"

"Of course." Hua Ruge looked at him and said: "It's you."

Tuoba Rui shook his head and laughed.

Although Hua Ruge said that he was afraid, in reality, his face did not show any sign of being wronged, as he was already used to it.

On the second day, Hua Ruge invited three elders that he trusted over, and asked them to help him look at the name list, adding in the names of the people he needed to delete before deciding on a candidate.

By the time the list was spread out, the demon god palace had already made its preparations.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. The three divine palaces rode the clouds to the west.

Thor and Fire God had said before that there weren't any powerful guards over there. The main thing was to find a way to break the seal, so the people they brought along, whether it was teamwork ability or individual combat ability, were all top class.

The Demon God Palace was located in the middle of the God Realm, and the place where the Demon God had been sealed was in a sparsely populated black forest at the most western side of the world.

The Black Forest was an extremely cold and gloomy place without any sunlight. It was said that there weren't even any ferocious beasts that could adapt to the environment, which showed how bad it was.

Previously, Hua Ruge didn't know where his father was sealed, but after listening to Thunder God's explanation of the environment, his face immediately turned ugly.

This was way too vicious, he could not tolerate it any longer.

After half a month of travel, the group finally arrived at the western part of the Black Forest. Hua Ruge discovered that the place in front of them was completely black.

Hua Ruge took out the Illuminating Pearl and threw it inside. The result was that the moment the Illuminating Pearl entered the black forest, it no longer lit up, as if the light inside was eaten by a monster.

No matter what angle she looked at it from, it was black, as if the light had also been swallowed by it.

It was the same in the current Black Forest.

In the darkness, people could just barely make out the dense trees. They had never seen this kind of tree before, because it grew in the darkness all year round, its trunk and branches were all ashen white, as if it were about to wither in the next moment.

Moreover, this abnormal ashen white color was the most obvious color within the black forest. From afar, everyone felt their blood run cold.

"This place has a very heavy killing intent." Hua Ruge frowned: "Compared to it, it's more used to swallow my father's cultivation, let's quickly go in."

The eyes of Thor and Fire God were filled with anxiety. The Fire God led the charge while Thor remained cautious behind the group. Both of them were wary of their surroundings.

Only after entering the black forest did these people discover that they couldn't find their way at all. The path that the Divine Energy could reach was too close, making it impossible to look at it from a distance. This was something that even Sovereigns weren't an exception to.

"As expected of the Black Forest, known as the Land of Death." The Fire God stopped in his tracks, because he didn't know where the Demon God was locked up. After walking for a while, he still didn't discover anything.1
