Minh Quang and Braised Tofu, after some discussion with the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King, finally departed.
"Why are there so many things to do?" No One sighed as he watched their figures disappear.
"Too many problems to deal with. It's just unfortunate that everyone wants to bother me," the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King said exhaustedly, reclining on her throne.
The Rabbit delivered the "real" news to the Yaoguais.
The Demon God was preparing to establish the Demonic Path.
There was only one more day to prepare, after which the Yaoguai Festival would arrive.
The eyes of the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King grew heavy.
She didn't dare to overuse them, for fear that darkness would visit her again.
Suddenly, she glanced at No One, who was typing something enthusiastically.
As far as the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King knew, this was a way of communicating with the Foreigners.
"Are you contacting someone?"
"Yes, reinforcements," No One nodded.
"Foreigners?" the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King smiled.
"Indeed," No One continued typing.
"However, everyone wants to be fairly compensated for their work. I hope Sister Amethyst will be generous with the rewards~"
"You little brat. From now on, unless it's just the two of us, don't call me that." She chuckled.
"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you, esteemed Thousand Tails Yaoguai King," No One laughed cheerfully.
The two of them had no idea that behind them, someone was emanating an immense killing intent.
In fact, the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King noticed it, but she didn't care.
That killing intent came from the Golden Monkey.
"That bastard...! Addressing the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King as...!!!"
"Calm down, big guy, stop being jealous," the Golden Dog patted the Golden Monkey's head.
"Shut your mouth! This is me expressing my feelings!" the Golden Monkey growled in front of the Golden Dog.
"If you want to show your feelings, then protect the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King well."
"You don't need to remind me! If the esteemed Thousand Tails Yaoguai King is in danger, I will immediately use my life to ensure her safety!"
The Golden Monkey proudly bang his chest.
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King could hear them, but she ignored her two Yaoguai Generals' idle chatter.
No One looked at the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King's face.
More precisely, at her eyes.
The jade color of her eyes seemed to grow darker by the day.
"How much longer?" he asked.
"I'm afraid by then, it will have lost its effect..."
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King shook her head.
The damaged eyes of the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King had weakened significantly.
Soon, they would no longer have the ability to see the past or the future.
"Can't that item help?"
"Unfortunately, no, it has the ability to detoxify, but it isn't miraculous enough to heal these eyes."
No One sighed.
Not many knew the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King was weakening day by day.
According to the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King, only the Yaoguai Rabbit servant and those two close Yaoguai Generals in the palace were aware of it.
"So, am I finished for now?" No One closed the chat interface.
He still had many things to prepare for what was coming.
He genuinely didn't know if he could safely defeat the Boss tonight.
"Is it urgent?"The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King looked at him, seemingly wanting him to stay a little longer.
"Hmm... I still have a few hours free if there's anything else," No One glanced at his schedule.
"Alright, come with me." She gracefully stepped down from the throne.
"Tell Snow Moon to come along too."
With a leap, she transformed into a lavender fox and perched on his shoulder.
In her fox form, the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King looked quite adorable.
Fluffy.
"So, where are we going?"
"This is The Emperor's Secret Inspection !" She giggled.
"It's been a while since I've had the Rooster King's spicy noodles."
As she spoke, the fox's tongue licked her lips hungrily.

Following the news the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King shared via livestream.
The number of log-ins in the First World hit an astonishing figure.
Yaoguai's Power Remnants were obtained through most in-game activities.
By default, one dungeon run earned 200-5000 remnants for first clear and much lower after.
Defeating a monster yielded 1-20 remnants depending on the level and quality of the monster.
There were also daily quests rewarding additional Yaoguai's Power Remnants.
And there's a "Bounty" for the first time clearing a new dungeon.
Getting past the First Boss of the Tomb of The Immortal Blade rewarded 1 million power remnants.
Boss 2 and Boss 3 still hadn't displayed their amounts.
Accumulating power remnants was generally not easy.But through the Foreigners, the amount is simply huge.
The numbers she offered for exchanges were several times the amount of Yaoguai power a normal member of the Yaoguai community could loan out.
She herself was genuinely curious about how the Foreigner's Association had so many extraordinary capabilities.
At the City of Thousand Tails, the place was bustling with activity.
Countless Yaoguais were trading all kinds of rare items and food.
Players in the City of Thousand Tails were also incredibly active.
It seemed even more crowded than Qiu Yu City during peak hours.
Fortunately, the streets of the City of Thousand Tails were spacious; otherwise, moving around would have been difficult.
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King, traveling on No One's shoulder, was astonished by the endless stream of players gathering Yaoguai power.
"Are you sure about your promise to prevent the Human Race from establishing the Heavenly Path?"
"I apologize... but I heard from Snow Moon about your past."
"I don't see you having a grudge against humans."
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King remained silent.
"Only if the plan succeeds do humans have a chance to survive."
"Do you know the White Night?" She asked.
"I've heard it causes headaches for many." No One replied.
"The White Night only happens when the Heavenly Path is established."
No One froze.
What crucial information is this?
"The Heavenly Demon In Black has dedicated her life to controlling White Night."
"That's why she doesn't try to help humans achieve the Heavenly Path."
"Even the Association doesn't know this; I'm quite sure of that."
"But wouldn't it be easier for Master to take the position of the Demonic Path?" No One wondered.
"Heavenly Demon cannot grasp the Heavenly Path."
"To succumb to the Inner Demon is exceedingly dangerous, especially for someone like her."
"If she can't control her power and is manipulated by the Inner Demon, she might end the world herself instead of White Night."
No One swallowed hard.
The Master truly is formidable.
"So even if I want humans to survive, they might destroy themselves because of White Night."
No One pondered deeply.
"But to create the Demon Race, will the Demon God give them a path to live?"
"Did you convince him?"
"I have my ways," the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King shook her head.
"However, they must nurture a Hero."
"That's why I insisted the Association continue to help him grows."
Hero.
The Association said they really didn't know what to do with that boy.
Currently, nurturing a Hero is unnecessary, as the final Demon God has already been created.
The strength of a Hero is insufficient to contend with a Demon God.
For a Hero to become a Saint, they must defeat a Demon King or Demon Emperor.
According to the Thousand Tails, the Demon Kings and Demon Emperors of the Demon Race are fewer than those of the Yaoguais.
That's because the cost of reaching such a level allows the Inner Demon to consume them.
At present, even though only the Demonic Path can be established, in terms of military power, the Yaoguais are currently in the majority.
It's due to the guidance of the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King that the Yaoguais are thriving more and more.
So if the battle for the Heavenly Path takes place, most of the casualties will also be Yaoguais.
Ting.
A notification appeared.
It was Snow Moon responding.
"Snow Moon said she'll arrive in about 15 minutes."
"Alright." The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King leapt off No One's shoulder, stretching like a little cat.
"Let's go eat some noodles!"
She seemed incredibly delighted.
It had been a long time since the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King had leisurely strolled through her own city.
