The demons made way.

He stepped forward, using the power of the "Demon Sound Whale" simulated by Formless, combined with his original "Corpse-Eating Wolf" power, and let out a howl, sending soundwaves out.

Upon reaching the last alley, he slightly adjusted, causing the soundwaves to bounce back and forth in the enclosed alleyway, creating echoes to enhance their power.

The Divine Infant Angzu watched expectantly.

The soundwave "smack" hit the Netherworld Corpse Demon, but the latter did not awaken.

Even so, the Divine Infant Angzu praised, "Not bad power, but it still needs some work. Chengyi, whatever resources you need, feel free to take them. The entire Pilan Demon Country is at your disposal as long as it enhances your power!"

With that, it tossed out a token amidst the envious gazes of the demons.

The Wolf Demon Song Yan caught it in one swift motion, thanking continuously.

...

...

Nightfall...

Gurgle... Gurgle...

The boiling pot was cooking large, neatly chopped pieces of beef.

The Wolf Demon Song Yan had a young lady seated on each leg, playing with the one on the left for a while, then teasing the one on the right, in various poses, indulging freely, thoroughly enjoying himself.

The young ladies, however, were staring at the boiling water, terrified, clutching Wolf Demon Song Yan's furry arm desperately, wishing they could meld with him completely.

Because they were scared.

To them, being cooked alive was far more terrifying than losing their chastity.

Hu Yue's fox eyes kept darting around restlessly.

The Wolf Demon Song Yan laughed heartily, nudged his thighs lifting the young ladies sitting on them, and said with a smile, "Still eyeing the meat on my legs?"

The two young ladies turned pale with fright, forced a smile, and clung even tighter to the Wolf Demon Song Yan.

Hu Yue chuckled lightly, saying, "I know you are cultivating 'Precepts Zen,' you don't eat human flesh!"

The Wolf Demon Song Yan replied, "Then what are you thinking?"

Hu Yue said, "Once you're satisfied, let these two humans go, and we'll talk."

After enjoying himself following the local customs, the Wolf Demon Song Yan patted the two young ladies and casually pulled two "Housing Certificates" out of his storage bag and tossed them out.

These "Housing Certificates" are an important tool of the demons to control humans. Holders can enjoy tax reduction and exemption. For instance, these two young ladies, when the government selects people next time, they can show this "Housing Certificate" to avoid being selected to serve the Immortal.

Their families would also live better in the demon kingdom because, besides the apparent benefits, the "Housing Certificate" comes with many "latent benefits." In short, no silly official would send someone with a "Housing Certificate" to do unfortunate things.

The two young ladies had come here to die, having tearfully embraced their parents before leaving home. Now, upon seeing the "Housing Certificates," they knelt repeatedly in gratitude to the Wolf Demon Song Yan before turning to leave, crying and laughing once they were far away.

Watching this scene, Hu Yue said, "You've grown much more merciful towards humans."

The Wolf Demon Song Yan lifted his furry paw, fished out two large beef steaks from the boiling pot, handed one to Hu Yue, and said with a smirk, "Don't chatter, tell me, what's on your mind?"

Hu Yue, taking the steak with concern, suddenly said, "Do you remember the scene when you visited the Ancient Devourer Elder?"

The Wolf Demon Song Yan replied, "Of course I remember."

Hu Yue said, "Then tell me about it."

The Wolf Demon Song Yan thought for a while and recounted the scene from that day.

After finishing, Hu Yue let out a long sigh. It thoroughly understood the intricacies involved and realized why it and its partner were sent here.

The Wolf Demon Song Yan asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Hu Yue closed its eyes and said, "I... don't want to die."

The Wolf Demon Song Yan patted his chest and said, "I'm here."

Hu Yue chuckled softly, then teased, "You silly wolf."

After finishing their meat, a Fox Demon and a Wolf Demon strolled the streets of Pilan Demon Capital, which was essentially a human city, though the highest ruler had changed from the Ancient Race to the Mountain and Sea Demon Race.

Lanterns hung, colored lights flickered, and some strange glowing Profound Flowers and Profound Grass bloomed in the night.

Today, Hu Yue seemed particularly gloomy, so they walked quite far, eventually reaching a position where they saw an exceptionally luxurious and prominent pavilion.

Song Yan raised his head slightly, looking at the pavilion.

Hu Yue said, "That's the residence of the young princess of the Pilan Proud Insect Clan."

"The Pilan Proud Insect Clan has a young princess?" Song Yan asked curiously.

Hu Yue said, "It is said she was lost hundreds of years ago, and Vilampu personally brought her back. This is just one of her residences, left for her to use when she's bored with cultivation and wants to play in the city."

Song Yan's divine sense scanned, and indeed, the pavilion was empty.

The phrase "lost hundreds of years ago" stirred some inexplicable memories within him.

The two demons strolled some more before returning to their residence to rest.

...

In the days that followed...

The atmosphere began to grow somewhat strange.

Fox Demons are mostly clever and full of cunning, not just limited to Hu Yue alone.

When they were dealing with the Crimson Palace and Purple Mansion corpses, they could handle it, but upon encountering the Netherworld Corpse Demon and considering their partner's status within the Demon Race, they basically understood everything.

An uneasy atmosphere began to spread covertly.

...

In the blink of an eye, six months passed.

That night, Wolf Demon Song Yan was playing with a young lady on the bed when his pupils suddenly contracted.

He sensed that the Divine Infant Angzu had left.

With a slight mental move, he summoned the Corpse Demon avatar he had hidden outside the city, which quietly followed.

His Corpse Demon avatar had a two-layer structure: the outer layer was his Shadow Puppet, while the inner layer was the Netherworld Corpse Demon.

The most terrifying aspect of the reverse skin making "Divine Image Soul Calming Technique" is that, while the Shadow Puppet cannot exhibit the full strength of the original body, its combat power would increase as the original body's power grows. Therefore... as Song Yan grew stronger, so did his avatar.
