Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

"On what right do you punish people from our lineage!" A powerful figure from another lineage of the demon race stepped forward.

Although he was only at the first level of the Sendai Secret Realm, he was still fearless in the face of a Dao-Slaying King.

The two were old acquaintances, and he was even that person's junior, someone the other had watched grow up. He didn't believe that the senior could slap him to death.

"Spreading rumors and slandering the demon princess, I will kill him. Does anyone have any objections?" The demon king's voice was icy as he looked at the other demon powerhouses.

No one dared to meet his gaze; even the guy who had just spoken lowered his head and remained silent.

"I'll only remind you of these words once. This time I only killed the ringleader. If I hear these words again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The Demon Clan's Dao-Slaying King's voice was icy, and his gaze was even colder.

Others tried to speak, but were silenced by that cold gaze.

"I don't care if any of those people are my descendants or not. Anyone who disobeys me will be reincarnated!"

Before leaving, he turned his head coldly and looked at the other powerful demons.

Although they are not from the same lineage, they are all demons and have helped each other many times in history.

Therefore, although he also wanted their lineage to become the orthodox one, he did not want the powerful demons from other lineages of the demon race to disappear.

Ultimately, we all share the same roots, and it's wrong to exterminate others just for the sake of factional disputes.

Therefore, he added a final reminder, "We are all of the same demon race. I hope you can recognize the situation. That person is a true descendant of the Demon Emperor, the legitimate heir of the demon race. And the origin of the human boy beside him is far beyond your comprehension. Even in that place with its brilliant cultivation civilization, which is beyond our imagination, that boy is the most outstanding person of his time, without exception!"

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.

Now that he's said all this, if the person still can't understand, then there's nothing more he can do.

He had already given enough warnings. If these people continued to act willfully, there was nothing he could do but wish them good luck, that they wouldn't be purged in the future, or that when they were, they would only be expelled from the demon race instead of losing their lives.

Watching the departing figure of the Dao-Slaying King, the other beings of the demon race had somewhat complicated expressions.

They were initially in a state of rage when the assassins came to their senses. They realized that this person genuinely cared about them, which was why they made the suggestion. Otherwise, that person could have simply left, sowing the seeds of hatred so that others would continue to resent them and then do even worse things when facing those two.

In any case, they will be the ones who suffer in the end.

However, that person did not do that. Even in anger, they still reminded them not to go too far and to face reality.

“Speaking of that person…” a powerful demon clan member began.

"Stop asking. Control your subordinates. Anyone recognized by the Ancestor as a legitimate member of the demon race must have an unquestionable identity. As for the young man beside the princess, he is recognized by the demon princess and that Dao-Slaying King as a human. Even in another, more prosperous cultivation region, no one denies his existence. Therefore, his background and talent can only be more extraordinary. After all, my demon princess would never marry down!"

Another powerful member of the demon race spoke up.

His background was also extraordinary and he was highly respected, so his words immediately silenced the others.

“Yes, we understand!” The others nodded.

This matter involves too much. The orthodox demon race comes from a distant region. If they cannot satisfy the other party, then the demon race on their entire planet may be excluded by the orthodox demon race.

This is not only a loss due to being excluded by the orthodox demon race, but an even greater loss is that they cannot obtain the help of that more prosperous cultivation region!
That's the biggest loss!

The fact that those people were able to traverse the vast expanse of space to reach this region shows that what they possess is far beyond what they can imagine.

They even heard rumors that the human boy beside the demon princess had once casually taken out a legendary holy weapon and given it to someone else!
Those who can casually give away legendary sacred weapons are definitely extraordinary; they are probably at least descendants of ancient emperors.

So when they calmed down, they realized that they had to respect those people, otherwise they would suffer huge losses!

After the group of demon elders left, they immediately summoned their subordinates who had been brought there and solemnly emphasized one thing: they must not do anything that might upset the demon princess and the human boy!
Of course, some people were puzzled and wanted to raise questions during this process, but without exception, those who dared to speak out were sent back to their respective settlements.

These were only because they were elders, and because these people were their juniors; otherwise, a bloody incident similar to the one a few days ago might have occurred recently.

However, after this serious reminder, the discordant voices in the demon clan's territory did indeed decrease significantly, and Wang Teng and Yan Ruyu no longer heard those people saying irrelevant things when they went out.

Soon, with the arrival of other demon races, the number of holy spirits in the demon race's territory increased, and this pilgrimage ceremony was about to begin.

The Demon Clan's King of the Dao personally contributed his palace, and the entire Demon Clan was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, as if it were New Year's Day.

In this joyful atmosphere, Yan Ruyu, as a princess of the demon race, welcomed the homage of the demon race from Earth.

The process was quite boring. The Earth demons had already established their identities and roles, so no one raised any objections from beginning to end. Their attitude was full of respect, and they wished they could offer their hearts to the demon princess.

As the recognized prince consort of the demon race, Wang Teng was naturally treated with great respect. Many demons were even more respectful to Wang Teng than to Yan Ruyu.

This left Wang Teng both amused and exasperated. Yan Ruyu was clearly the main character, but in the end, he became the one being fawned over by everyone.

However, Yan Ruyu did not raise any objections. He looked at Wang Teng with a smile, his eyes seemingly only focused on Wang Teng.

Seeing this scene, the other demon beings were even more certain that this person's status was extraordinary. Therefore, they became even more respectful and enthusiastic when facing Wang Teng, wishing they could push Wang Teng onto the throne of the demon race's lord right now.

Ultimately, at the suggestion of the Demon Clan's King of Slaying the Dao, Wang Teng truly became the new Demon God of the Demon Clan on Earth.

Yes, a human without demon bloodline became a demon god.

Wang Teng was at a loss for words, but all the other demons agreed that he should become the new Demon God.

Yan Ruyu looked at Wang Teng with a smile, "Then I'll take advantage of you and make you the Demon God, my guardian and warrior?"

Although Yan Ruyu's smile was a gentle one, Wang Teng could see the joy in her heart. This was a genuine expression of Yan Ruyu's feelings; what she thought and what she said were the same.

At the same time, her eyes were filled with expectation as she looked intently at Wang Teng, as if waiting for his response.

With Yan Ruyu taking such initiative, how could Wang Teng possibly pretend not to see it?

He smiled and nodded, "I'd be honored to accept your offer!"

Seeing this, the Demon King who had slain the Dao really wanted to shout that they should get married right there and then, because he was so eager to improve!
But at the crucial moment, he restrained his emotions and didn't actually shout it out.

Because it's highly unlikely that the wedding will take place on Earth, since neither of them is from Earth. Even if they were to get married, they would return to that distant star system and marry in front of many relatives and friends, rather than in this unfamiliar place.

So he only thought about it and didn't actually put it into practice.

Ultimately, this grand assembly, which was considered orthodox by the demon race, was successfully held.

Perhaps because the powerful demons had previously issued repeated orders and dealt with some people directly and violently, no demon uttered any arrogant words during the entire worship process, and everyone faced the two with absolute respect.

“Your Highness, there is something I should not say, but I have no choice but to speak!” said the Demon Clan’s King of Slaying the Dao.

Seeing this, Wang Teng knew that this guy had worked so hard for so long, and now he was finally asking for a reward.

However, Wang Teng was not offended, because there is no reward without effort. If you only make people work without giving them any benefits, then who will work hard for them in the future?

Moreover, this demon race's Dao-Slaying King has been busy for so long, he has not only worked hard but also made great contributions, so Wang Teng nodded, indicating that this guy could continue.

"There are several young men in our clan with exceptional talent and aptitude. Unfortunately, the current environment on Earth is not suitable for cultivation. Leaving them here would be a waste of their potential. Therefore, I earnestly request that Your Highness and Prince Consort take a look at those children and see if they are suited for cultivation. If they are... I would like to humbly request that Your Highness and Prince Consort take that young man to a more suitable place for cultivation when you leave!"

The Demon Clan's Dao-Slaying King spoke sincerely, not seeking opportunities for himself, but for the younger generation.

The other creatures of the demon race sighed upon seeing this scene!

That's why he was able to reach the realm of the King of Severing the Dao. His level of enlightenment is unmatched by anyone else.

The realm of the King of Slaying the Dao is already very high. If one were to go any higher, one could only become a Sage. However, becoming a Sage is obviously not easy, so he simply took a different path and gave the opportunity to a younger member of his clan.

In this way, the younger generation in the clan can go further, and their lineage or the entire demon clan will naturally be able to go further in the future.

"Your Highness and Prince Consort, we also have several young men from our lineage who possess remarkable talent and strength, and we would like to bring them here for you both to see!"

Other demon beings also spoke up.

Fortunately, when they first received the invitation to attend the demon clan's pilgrimage ceremony, they had already brought along their most beloved or most talented juniors. So, there was no need for any additional preparations before they could say this; they could simply call those people over.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ruyu glanced at Wang Teng, seemingly waiting for his response.

Wang Teng was somewhat helpless, thinking to himself, how did Yan Ruyu become a love-obsessed person?

Originally, Yan Ruyu was very independent and self-reliant, with her own ideas and plans for everything. She could handle many things very well, even in dealing with the many markets of the behemoth that is the demon race. She was so adept that no one in the demon race could find any fault with her. But now, she even has to consult Wang Teng about matters within the demon race on Earth, as if she wants to seek his opinion. The difference between before and after is too great.

But perhaps this is the truest reflection of a girl in love?
The difference between having no one to rely on and having someone to rely on is ultimately significant.

"Then let them come over, but there's one thing we need to make clear beforehand. Although the cultivation civilization in that star field is more brilliant and there are more opportunities, there are also more dangers. Even powerful beings are at risk of perishing at any time in that star field. Moreover, there are sages reviving in that star field now, so the future dangers may only be greater. Therefore, we must think carefully about whether or not to send the geniuses of our clan over."

Wang Teng reminded everyone.

It's best to explain this matter in advance. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens in the future, even if others don't dare to blame you, they will still feel dissatisfied. It's better to make things clear and give them the right to choose.

"We understand!" The powerful demons nodded repeatedly.

How could they not know about those crises? But the path of cultivation is never smooth sailing. If you want to become stronger, you can only go through all kinds of crises.

"Okay, let them in then." Wang Teng nodded.

In truth, he had no racial prejudices. Race was not that important to him, and the idea that those who were not of his race were bound to have different intentions was almost nonexistent for Wang Teng.

Because Wang Teng was confident enough to suppress everything, he valued character more, that is, whether one's state of mind was up to standard, and whether one would do anything to harm other living beings. He didn't care much about anything else.

He believed in teaching without discrimination. As long as a living being was willing to follow him, he would not hesitate to give them guidance. If someone had good strength and talent, Wang Teng would naturally be willing to train them.

Soon, a group of young demons arrived at the demon clan's main hall. Their true forms varied, but their faces were filled with excitement. Clearly, they had known about these events for some time and were now waiting for an opportunity.

With a casual wave of his hand, Wang Teng instantly created dozens of versions of himself, though their auras were slightly weaker, falling between the Wheel Sea Secret Realm and the Dao Palace Secret Realm, perfectly matching the cultivation levels of the group of demon youths before him.

"One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones?!" The Demon Clan's Dao-Slaying King exclaimed in shock. This was a legendary divine power that had been lost for thousands of years. Unless one possessed a great opportunity and had strong talent and strength, it would be impossible to comprehend such a divine power.

"I guess so," Wang Teng nodded.

This is also the legacy of an empress.

Then he looked at the group of spirited and eager teenagers in front of him and said, "If you can withstand one move from me at the same level, you will pass the first level of the test."

This is already a very basic test. Even if it's a clone, he won't use his full strength. It's just a threshold to verify the talent and strength of these young people.

Even so, the result was still surprising.
