"How long will it take you to break the Demon Realm Seal, Bai Qi?" Sanye the Demon Lord slowly opened his half-closed eyes, revealing blood-red flashes of brilliance.
"Half an hour will be enough, my lord. But I fear Wangqing and his son may arrive at any moment. If the Demon Realm army cannot emerge in time, I am afraid something unforeseen may happen." With the Demon Realm about to open and the demonic path about to return to the Three Realms, Bai Qi's attitude became increasingly respectful. At the same time, he hovered at the edge of hesitation. The reason he had not opened the Demon Realm passage first was partly because he intended to gauge Sanye the Demon Lord's attitude before making his final decision. After all, this was no trivial matter. He could not afford to lose.
Sanye the Demon Lord seemed to have guessed his thoughts. In a slow, weighty voice, he said, "Once this succeeds, I will honor my promise. The Underworld will still be entrusted to you, Bai Qi, to rule on behalf of our demonic path. But if you dare deceive me... I may as well make this clear to you: even if you do not open the Demon Realm passage, my return to the Three Realms is only a matter of sooner or later. Decide for yourself."
Bai Qi was secretly shocked. He knew that although Sanye the Demon Lord belonged to the demonic path, he was a supreme figure who held himself in high esteem. There was no need for him to lie to Bai Qi. He must already have found a way to open the Demon Realm passage; only the time was not yet ripe. Bai Qi immediately said with utmost respect, "I would not dare!"
