...

Moonbeam deftly stored the five golden pheasant corpses in his storage ring, then donned a white cloak and swiftly returned to the caravan.

Cai'er and the others were already waiting inside the carriage.

"Is everything settled?" Moonbeam asked, lifting his cloak.

“It was so easy,” Wang Yuanyuan clenched her fist, her knuckles making a crisp sound. “I never imagined we’d be this strong now.”

Indeed, apart from Lu Xi, who is a support-type character, even Han Yu was able to solo kill a sixth-tier Bloodthirsty Demon.

"Look at your gear!" Lu Xi rolled her eyes. "What sixth-tier professional can wear a full set of legendary equipment?"

Over the past few months, they have upgraded the entire raid's equipment through the Demon Hunter Trading Center, the Auction House, and top blacksmiths.

Upgrading from Glorious to Legendary requires spending a million merit points, and now everyone has at least two pieces of Legendary equipment!

"That's good." Yuehui smiled with satisfaction.

...

Soon, the piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire city of Nado, plunging the city into chaos.

The demon army mobilized in full force and began a city-wide manhunt.

Five bloodthirsty madmen were assassinated and five golden avian demons mysteriously disappeared from the two pillar races of Narik Province—the Mad Demons and the Bird Demons. This directly alarmed the demon god who was in charge of this place.

"Close the city gates! Martial law throughout the city!" The demon god's roar echoed through the city.

Just as the city gates were about to close, the Moonlit Merchant Guild's caravan arrived at the gates.

"Halt! No one is allowed to leave the city!" the demon guarding the city shouted sternly.

The steward flew into a rage: "Are you blind?! Can't you see the merchant flag?!"

The demon guarding the city stared intently, then trembled in fear: "Y-I'm sorry, but the Demon God has given orders."

"We are transporting supplies urgently needed by the Moon Demon Clan!" the manager said coldly. "If we are delayed, can you afford the consequences?"

These words made the demons guarding the city's legs go weak.

The tragedy of the Moonlit Merchant Guild's attack is still fresh in their minds, and the wrath of the Moon Demon God and the Demon Emperor has not yet subsided.
"Please, please wait a moment. I'll go and ask the Demon God right away." He stammered, then scrambled off to deliver the message.

Before long, the demon guarding the city returned, covered in sweat, followed by a squad of fully armed demon soldiers.

“I’m so sorry.” He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. “The Demon Lord ordered that a search be conducted before allowing them to pass, to ensure the assassins haven’t infiltrated the caravan.”

"Hurry up!" the manager waved impatiently.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The demons guarding the city quickly ordered their soldiers to begin the search.

Soon, only the carriage containing Moonlight remained to be inspected in the entire caravan.

As the demons guarding the city approached tremblingly, just as they were about to lift the carriage curtain—

"Humph!"

A thunderous snort suddenly exploded!
The carriage curtain was suddenly lifted, revealing an exceptionally handsome face. His purple hair cascaded like a waterfall, his purple eyes flashed like lightning, and the crescent moon mark between his brows radiated an intimidating aura—a characteristic of a high-ranking noble of the Moon Demon Clan!
"What do you intend to do to me, Earl?" Moonlight's voice was as cold as an ice blade.

A powerful mental pressure swept out, and the demons and soldiers guarding the city felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their legs trembling uncontrollably.

(This oppressive aura)

(He's definitely a big shot from the Moon Demon Clan!)
"I...I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness." The demon guarding the city knelt down with a thud. "I didn't know it was the Earl himself who had come."

Moonlight's purple eyes flashed with a cold light: "This shipment is of great importance, and I, the Earl, will personally escort it. What, do you want me to go and talk to the Demon God of Danlin in person?"

"No! No need!" The demon guarding the city was terrified and shouted hoarsely, "Open the city gates! Let them through!"

……

After the convoy left Nado City, the atmosphere inside the carriages immediately became more relaxed.

"Captain, you're such a convincing actor!" Chen Ying'er covered her mouth and chuckled. "Those demons guarding the city were practically terrified."

Yuehui smiled slightly: "His timidity has saved us a lot of trouble."

"Commander, are we going to leave the team for the next mission?" Long Haochen asked.

Moonbeam shook her head: "No need. I'm going to the central area of ​​the Demon Realm to find Moonbeam anyway, and by following the merchant caravan, I can complete most of the killing missions along the way."

Han Yu frowned and said, "But won't this implicate the Moonlit Merchant Guild?"

“We can make our move after the merchant caravan leaves,” Yuehui said, already prepared. “I’ll have them wait for us outside the city.” Cai’er, who had been silent, suddenly looked up: “What do you want with Yueye?”

Swah——

Everyone leaned back in unison, and Chen Ying'er and Wang Yuanyuan pulled out a handful of purple-gold melon seeds from somewhere and started cracking them open.

Yuehui glanced at the crowd of onlookers, her lips twitching slightly: "During the battle at the Dream Temple last time, she was almost caught in the blast of my magic, and she's been completely out of contact for the past few months."

He gently held Cai'er's hand: "She is my sister and also an important business partner. This misunderstanding needs to be cleared up."

He suddenly leaned close to Cai'er's ear and asked, "What's wrong? Is my Cai'er jealous?"

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Cai'er's ears, hidden beneath her black veil, instantly turned bright red.

"Then," Yuehui squeezed her small hand, "would you come with me to see her?"

(Perfect timing to introduce my wife to my parents!)

A soft "Mmm" came from beneath the veil.

"belch--"

The onlookers suddenly let out a collective burp.

"Strange," Chen Ying'er clicked her tongue, "Why do these melon seeds taste like lemon?"

……

As the Moonlit Merchant Guild ventured deeper into the heart of the Demon Realm, Moonbeam and his party had completed twelve killing missions.

"Haochen, you guys find a place to hide first, or go into the Tower of Eternity and wait for us," Moonbeam instructed.

At this moment, Cai'er had changed into the Moon Demon Clan's attire, with long purple hair draped over her shoulders and her purple eyes exuding a bewitching charm.

"Commander, are you sure you don't need me to come along?" Long Haochen was still worried. "What if we encounter danger?"

Moonbeam waved the noble token in her hand: "I'm just going to see Sister Moonnight, not to hunt demons. With this token, ordinary Moon Demons won't be able to spot any flaws."

He gently stroked Cai'er's long hair: "Besides, if we walk like this on the streets of the Demon Realm, who would think we're human?"

(What dangers could there be in bringing your wife home?)

"Well... alright, Commander, be careful." Long Haochen nodded in agreement.

...

Holding Cai'er's hand, Yuehui calmly stepped into the Moon Demon Palace.

He knew the layout of the place like the back of his hand and navigated the corridors with ease.

"Young master, please wait!" A human maid was about to stop him, but froze the moment she saw Yuehui's face.

"Is Moonlit Night here?" Moonlight asked calmly.

The maidservant hurriedly bowed and said, "Reporting to the young master, the young lady is in her bedchamber."

"Ah."

Yuehui tightened her grip on Cai'er's hand and walked straight towards Yueye's palace.

Yuehui led Cai'er to a stop in front of the gate and gently knocked.

"Who is it?" A cold, clear voice came from inside the door.

"Sister, it's me."

The door opened in response.

Just as Yueye was about to speak, her gaze suddenly froze on Cai'er behind Yuehui.

Despite the other person's attire as a Moon Demon, his handsome appearance made her instantly recognize Cai'er's true identity.

"How could you..." Yueye swallowed the rest of her sentence.

“Sister, you’ve been out of touch for the past few months. I bet you were angry.” Yuehui scratched his head. “I came back especially to apologize to you.”

Just as Yuehui was about to continue explaining, a voice suddenly came from outside the Moon Demon Palace.

"His Majesty the Demon Emperor has arrived!"

Upon hearing this, Yuehui, Cai'er, and Yueye's expressions immediately changed.

(Holy crap!)

(Why would Fengxiu come to the Moon Demon Palace at this time? Doesn't he have his own palace?!)
