"Eventually, I became more powerful, and the demons didn't dare to steal my things anymore," Chen Fan recounted.
"One day, I started at the bottommost layer of the Dark Abyss and kept pushing upward... relentlessly and endlessly....
"Because the Old Demon Dragon had told me that outside the Black Abyss, there was a different world," he added.
"I wanted to see that world."
Ye Hongyan turned her head to look quietly at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan continued, "The old monster tricked me..."
"The world outside was indeed marvelous, but it was much more terrifying than the Dark Abyss."
"Wherever I went, no matter who saw me, they would want to kill me."
"If they didn't kill me, they would be busy killing each other."
Ye Hongyan softly asked, "Isn't there killing in the Dark Abyss?"
"Kill." Chen Fan responded, "There's also killing in the Dark Abyss but it's much simpler there, without all the deceit."
"Demons are much simpler than the Divine Race..."
