Chapter 983 Exchange
Chi Haoyang slowly opened his eyes.

Haggard, indifferent, calm.

His body slowly floated up, as if supported by an invisible force, and he stretched out his legs to slowly step onto the ground.

She is completely different now.

His thin body, which had been haggard and dejected, is now as strong as a cypress, with an imposing aura.

This is the source of the Great Heavenly Demon's confidence; he has already stood at the top of the Demon Realm and can look down upon all the demons.

Most importantly, even if one dies, the memories of this life will remain in the Demon Abyss, and will be able to be recalled when one becomes a Great Heavenly Demon again.

"Thank you, young master." He clasped his hands in a respectful gesture.

Leng Tieya smiled and waved his hand: "Sir, are you planning to go back to the Chi family first?"

Wealth that does not return home is like walking in brocade at night.

After becoming the Great Demon King, the thing Chi Haoyang wanted to do most was definitely go back to the Chi family.

To the surprise of all the Chi family members, he was able to finally hold his head high and vent his pent-up frustrations.

At the same time, find the person who framed him and take revenge.

Chi Haoyang's eyes flickered, revealing a wistful expression: "I should go back and take a look."

Leng Tieya said, "I will be going to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace in the future. You can stay at the Chi family, sir. You don't need to come with me."

"Yes." Chi Haoyang said solemnly, "If you have any orders, young master, just send someone to deliver a letter."

Leng Tieya laughed and said, "I will not stand on ceremony. Before going to the Great Demon Palace, I need to go to the Meng family first. Please come with me, sir."

We need to make a trip to the Meng family, whether it's because of the Canghai letter or the Soul-Suppressing Seal.

The Meng family also has Great Heavenly Demons, but if we send out two Great Heavenly Demons, the Meng family will be powerless to stop us.

It would be best to deter the Meng family from causing trouble and to have a calm and peaceful discussion.

"Alright." Chi Haoyang solemnly clasped his hands in a salute.

"Then let's meet in Zhongyun City in six days."

As Leng Tieya spoke, his figure began to blur and then disappeared.

-

early morning
The bright sunshine shone on the cold mansion.

Outside the gates of the Leng residence, a group of servants surrounded Leng Yuqing.

Leng Yuqing, her face grim, looked coldly at Leng Tieya and frowned, saying, "Third brother, think about it again."

"Big sister, I've really thought it through." Leng Tieya said helplessly, "I reckon Canghai's letter has already returned safely by now, so there shouldn't be any problems."

“And there’s the Soul-Suppressing Seal,” Leng Yuqing said. “How could they possibly let you go so easily? They’ll definitely find a way to deal with you.”

"I am now a disciple of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, the Meng family dares not do that."

"They can pretend they don't know."

"How could this be impersonated?" Leng Tieya took out the token from his sleeve and waved it: "Don't worry."

"I really don't understand why you insist on going to the Meng family. Wouldn't it be best to stay far away? Why do you have to go there? ...Is there some benefit to it?"

"My eldest sister understands me best."

"What's the benefit?"

Leng Tieya said, "Canghai's handwritten notes are incomplete, and this Meng Canghai is an unparalleled demon. Let's see if he has any other items."

"...Would you exchange your Soul-Suppressing Seal with them?"

"That depends on whether what they offer is worth it."

"...Little brother, have you thought this through? This is a demonic artifact."

"Does the patriarch have any thoughts?" Leng Tieya turned his head to look at the gate of the Leng family mansion and shook his head: "This is not the Leng family's magical artifact, it is my magical artifact."

“You’re also a member of the Leng family,” Leng Yuqing said. “Don’t be so formal.”

Leng Tieya was too lazy to say more: "Alright, big sister, be careful of the Lu family, let's go."

"Be extremely careful. If it really comes down to it, it's okay to give up the Soul-Suppressing Seal. You are the most important person."

"Only you would think that way, eldest sister. Let's go."

Leng Tieya smiled inexplicably, waved his hand, turned around and floated away, disappearing into the end of the street in the blink of an eye.

Leng Yuqing stared at the direction where his figure disappeared and sighed.

I originally thought that everything would be different once my third brother became the Great Demon.

But now it seems there's no difference. It's unwise for the head of the family to neglect his third brother because of his wife; is he perhaps senile?

She sighed softly at this thought, glancing at the gate of the mansion with a worried expression.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that the gate of the mansion was no longer familiar, but rather somewhat unfamiliar.

My previous understanding was superficial; it seems I never truly understood the Leng family.

……

Leng Tieya exited the west gate and met up with Chi Haoyang, who was waiting nearby.

Seeing that Chi Haoyang was full of energy and his dejection and depression had completely disappeared, he smiled and said, "Your trip to the Chi family was very fulfilling, wasn't it?"

"Very good." Chi Haoyang smiled and said with emotion, "Becoming a Great Heavenly Demon is indeed different. All I see are smiling faces, and everyone around me has become friendly."

Leng Tieya laughed, "Do they dare to make the Great Heavenly Demon become unfriendly? Have they avenged themselves?"

“I went back on the first evening, and before I could even do anything, the person who framed me committed suicide that very night.” Chi Haoyang shook his head and said, “I didn’t have to lift a finger.”

"Was it suicide, or forced suicide?" Leng Tieya asked. "Could it be that the Chi family forced him to commit suicide?"

“Very likely,” Chi Haoyang said. “He was a middle-level member of a family, with elderly parents and young children to care for, and he was living a comfortable life. So he was naturally forced to commit suicide.”

"I couldn't vent my anger."

"Actually, this is for the best. It saves me from having to do it myself and reduces the amount of killing."

“Haha…” Leng Tieya chuckled: “So, sir, you don’t like killing. That’s quite different from what we demons do.”

“I don’t want to be so weak, but I can’t change what’s in my bones,” Chi Haoyang sighed. “Maybe it’s related to my past life.”

Leng Tieya nodded, without asking who he was or what he did in his previous life.

This is taboo.

The two chatted as they traveled, passing through groves of trees and towering mountains.

As Great Heavenly Demons, their demonic essence had undergone a qualitative change, making them incredibly fast and their figures blurry and indistinct.

In half a day, they arrived at the Meng family's home, a thousand miles away.

The Meng Mansion was far more grand than the Leng Mansion.

It occupies an entire street, with a three-story gatehouse, combining both vicissitudes and splendor.

One look at this gate and you know it's a thousand-year-old family, no ordinary family.

The moment they appeared, the four guards in front of the gatehouse turned pale with fright.

They deliberately unleashed their full power; the Great Demon's aura was like a towering peak, its momentum seemingly about to topple, making one unable to resist the urge to flee.

Leng Tieya looked at the four of them with a smile and said gently, "Please inform Young Master Mengqi that Leng Tieya from Zhongyun City has come to visit."

The four guards were taken aback upon hearing this. The head guard clasped his hands and smiled, "So it's Young Master Leng. The Fifth Young Master has already given instructions beforehand. Please come with me, Young Master."

Leng Tieya nodded: "Where is Young Master Meng?"

"The Fifth Young Master is in seclusion cultivating. He instructed me to inform Young Master Leng when he arrives, and that the Fifth Young Master will come out of seclusion to entertain him."

"Young Master Meng is quite hospitable."

The middle-aged guard led the way, entering the Meng Mansion through a side gate, then heading east through three moon archways to a small courtyard.

Maids served tea and snacks, while middle-aged guards accompanied them.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Monchi appeared in front of Cold Iron Cliff.

When Meng Qi saw Chi Haoyang, he was taken aback.

Leng Tieya laughed and said, "Young Master Meng, do you recognize Mr. Chi? Thanks to your help last time, Mr. Chi has entered the Great Heavenly Demon Realm."

Monchi's face stiffened, but he forced a smile and clasped his hands in a fist salute: "Congratulations, Mr. Chi."

Chi Haoyang solemnly clasped his hands in a fist and remained silent.

Leng Tieya took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and went straight to the point, "Young Master Meng, your esteemed residence invited me here not because of the Soul-Suppressing Seal, is it?"

"This... I wonder if Young Master Leng could return the Soul-Suppressing Seal?" Meng Qi asked earnestly, yet also with an embarrassed expression.

Leng Tieya smiled but remained silent.

Meng Qi said, "My family has a relic of Ancestor Canghai in our collection. How about we exchange it for the Soul-Suppressing Seal?"

Leng Tieya laughed and said, "Now that your family knows that Canghai's handwritten letter can allow the Heavenly Demon to enter the Great Heavenly Demon realm, you still want to exchange the Soul-Suppressing Seal for the relics of Ancestor Canghai?"

Meng Qi solemnly replied, "The Soul-Suppressing Seal is even more important to our household!"
