The Three Fiends of Kuihu, initially flew quite fast. However, as they realized the distance between themselves and Yue Qianchou was increasing, they anxiously slowed down, forming a defensive triangle around Yue Qianchou and constantly monitoring their surroundings. The three demons didn't want anything foolish enough to collide with Yue Qianchou now; that would be difficult to explain. Yue Qianchou naturally understood the demons' intentions, but he was quite annoyed. After all, his cultivation was mediocre, his flying speed was too slow, and they hadn't done anything wrong.

Although they were escorted by three Demon Kings, trouble began to arise once they passed Kui Hu's territory. Not everyone recognized the Three Fiends of Kuihu Yue Qianchou attracted the covetous eyes of many demons, and pairs of greedy eyes appeared below.

Every now and then, a few uninvited guests would pop up to inquire, or some self-important fellows would try to snatch Yue Qianchou away. But was this piece of meat so easy to eat? Having already received Yue Qianchou's order to kill without mercy, the three demons would mercilessly kill anyone who came, regardless of whether they were there to cause trouble or not, with a mindset of "better to kill the wrong person than let one go."

Normally, when these three demons trespassed into someone else's territory, they would at least have to consider the local Demon King's feelings. But this time, they weren't worried about offending anyone; they would kill anyone who stood in their way without hesitation. With Yue Qianchou present, even if the local Demon King knew, he probably wouldn't dare to object, and might even shout "Good riddance!" Just imagine, in this situation, how many could withstand a combined attack from three late Tribulation Transcendence stage Transcending experts?

The three demons fought their way through the enemy lines, attracting more and more monsters and demons, but Yue Qianchou didn't feel his flight speed affected in the slightest. Whenever the three demons attacked, it was almost a thunderous strike, instantly killing their opponents and preventing any monsters or demons from affecting Yue Qianchou in the slightest. Their service was impeccable.

"Kui Hu! You've gone too far! How dare you trespass on my territory and slaughter innocent people!" A roar like thunder suddenly erupted, shaking the dark clouds in the sky. Several figures shot towards us from afar with a whooshing sound.

With a wry smile, Kui Hu turned around and said, "Sir, the local Demon King, Golden Mane Roar, has arrived."

"Tell him to get the hell out of my way and stop bothering me," Yue Qianchou shouted in a deep voice. He thought that with his current status, few people would dare to stop him, and his journey should be smooth sailing. Who knew that one after another they were acting like kings in front of him, which made him a little angry.

The group did not slow down. Kui Hu, who was flying in the lead, shouted, "Brother Jin, get out of the way! We are escorting Mr. Yue forward. Anyone who blocks our way will be killed without mercy!" His voice was also loud and carried far.

As soon as he finished speaking, the two sides arrived head-on. The big guy with golden fur was startled when he saw Yue Qianchou and hurriedly shouted to the people around him, "Make way!" He then bowed and said, "Greetings, Mr. Yue." The others were also quite surprised. Naturally, they had heard of Yue Qianchou and quickly followed suit.

Yue Qianchou glanced at the Golden Mane Roar, left a cold snort, and shouted to Kui Hu in front of him, "Don't stop, ignore him."

As they passed each other, Kui Hu gave Golden Mane Roar an apologetic, bitter smile. The four of them passed through the crowd without slowing down, but Golden Mane Roar was chilled to the Yue Qianchou's cold snort and one sentence. After realizing what was happening, he hurriedly shouted to the people around him, "What are you standing there for? Come with me to see the master off."

The group expended Law Power in the air, using several teleportations to catch up with Yue Qianchou's flying group. The Golden Mane Roar as it flew, saying, "We did not know that you, sir, had arrived. Please forgive us. Do you have any instructions, sir? We hope you will give this lowly demon a chance to redeem himself."

Yue Qianchou glanced at him coldly, too lazy to pay him any attention. This caused Golden Mane Roar in a cold sweat, and he hurriedly flew to Kuihu's side for help. Kuihu, perhaps having some connection with him, said cryptically, "Sir, you were acting on the orders of the Punishment Envoy. When you passed through my territory, hundreds of ignorant little demons angered you, and I ordered my men to slaughter them all. But unexpectedly, you have quite a few ignorant fellows in your territory as well, so we had no choice but to act on your behalf. Please don't take offense, Brother Jin."

"Acting on orders from the Punishment Envoy?" One sentence made the golden- Golden Mane Roar's face tremble. He said repeatedly, "Good, good! Brother Kui is helping me. How could I care? Is there anything I can do to serve you, sir?" He wasn't stupid. Yue Qianchou ignored him, he simply went to the leader, Kui Hu, to ask for his life, indirectly redeeming himself.

Kui Hu cooperated, pointing ahead and saying in a deep voice, "I don't want to commit mass killings on Brother Jin's territory either. If Brother Jin really wants to help, he might as well lead his men to clear a path to the south, so as not to disturb you, sir."

"Good idea, good idea, Brother Kui is right. We must not let the gentleman be disturbed again on my territory." After saying that, the Golden Mane Roar waved his hand and said, "Follow me. Clear the southward route. Except for the gentleman and his party, no one is allowed to fly. Anyone who disobeys will be killed!" His words were full of murderous intent, probably meant for Yue Qianchou.

The demons followed the Golden Mane Roar, flying rapidly forward. But they hadn't gone far when they encountered someone who would slap them in the face. Hadn't he said he forbade anyone from flying? Three creatures happened to fly up, and upon seeing the Golden Mane Roar, they bowed and scraped in greeting, infuriating him. The Golden Mane Roar in anger. With a wave of his arms, his palms instantly transformed into two enormous bear paws, their golden fur gleaming.

With a deafening crash, two gigantic hands slammed together, instantly turning the leading demon into a bloody pulp. The remaining two demons were also torn to shreds by Golden Mane Roar's henchmen without any apparent reason, their blood splattering across the sky. Golden Mane Roar and roaring, led the demons southward without pausing, issuing stern warnings in all directions along its path.

And so they flew south, crossing territory after territory, from day to night and back again, encountering similar incidents to those in the Golden Mane Roar's territory along the way. As a result, the Demon King and ghost kings in the territories they passed through were all startled, and eventually, a whole group of Demon King and ghost kings—more than a hundred in total—were escorting Yue Qianchou, creating quite a commotion. However, Yue Qianchou remained expressionless and silent, causing considerable unease among the Demon King and ghost kings.

After nearly two days of flight, the group finally arrived at the southern border of the Demon Ghost Domain. Yue Qianchou knew they could not cross the border, or they would face annihilation, so he immediately told everyone to land. Only then did Yue Qianchou reveal a smile, cupping his hands to the demons and ghosts and saying, "Thank you all for seeing us off. This outside world is not a place you can go. Please return to your respective places."

Seeing that Yue Qianchou seemed unlikely to pursue the matter further in the various territories, they all breathed a sigh of relief and bowed in unison, saying, "Have a safe journey, sir. We will take our leave now!"

Yue Qianchou nodded, said nothing more, and flew directly towards the bright world outside on his sword.

Having left the Demon Ghost Domain and traveled about a hundred miles, he suddenly saw crashing waves and soaring seagulls; before him lay the vast ocean, its azure waves rolling. He landed directly on a clean beach amidst jagged rocks, furtively surveyed his surroundings, pulled out a silver ball, and slipped it into a crevice in a rock. He then leisurely looked around again...

He had been away from the mortal world for nearly two months, completely unaware of what had happened outside. He was getting anxious and had long wanted to return, but he guessed that since Bi Changchun controlled the entire Demon Ghost Domain, his sudden disappearance within it would likely be discovered. With safety as his top priority, he embarked on this relentless journey. Having traveled so far from the Demon Ghost Domain, he felt safe enough. Suddenly, he mounted his sword and soared into the sea, splashing waves, but he never reappeared...

This incident served as a reminder to the Demon King and ghost kings that if anyone in their territories were to offend Yue Qianchou again, it would be truly terrifying. So, upon returning, they quickly spread the word about Yue Qianchou's appearance, and within a few days, it had spread throughout the Demon Ghost Domain...
