North of the Central Region, on both banks of the Mist River in the Datong Domain.

After the incident of the Mist River Grotto Heaven was concluded, Zheng Dongliu redrew the borders, thereby including the entire Mist River into the territory of the Human Clan.

However, this did not affect the status of the passage between the two clans here.

After all, this place was originally the most harmonious spot for coexistence between the Human and Demon Clans. Although the Human Clan won in the Mist River Grotto Heaven, leading to the Demon Clan's defeat, it was the Demon Clan Royal Court that lost, not the neutral factions within the Demon Clan.

Therefore, under the jurisdiction of both clans, not much turmoil occurred here.

West of the Mist River, in Wohu Ridge, humans and demons come and go.

This is the largest transit point in the Demon Clan's territory. Anyone wishing to go to the Human Clan or to reach the Demon Clan must obtain a passport here before they can cross the border.

The importance of this place is self-evident, thus both Immortals and Demon Emperors are watching over this place in secret, guarding against each other's spies.

If one does not acquire a passport within a day of entering Wohu Ridge, they will be forcibly expelled.

"Still not found?"

Outside Wohu Ridge, the Silver Miasma Peng Emperor, with golden eyes, looked gloomily at the subordinate who emerged from the Ridge.

Upon receiving the Demon Saint Lord's order, he had rushed with his men to the outskirts of Wohu Ridge, all to help one person pass through.

But according to the Demon Saint Lord's description, they hadn't found a woman matching the description at all these past few days.

"Not yet."

The subordinate shook his head, and the Silver Miasma Peng Emperor kicked a stone nearby, cursing inwardly.

Even if they're from the Upper Realm Human Clan, they're still just humans; they were mere slaves under the demon rule before, and now they dare face the Royal Court with such an attitude!

What nonsense!

"Should we keep looking..."

"Looking for what?" Silver Miasma Peng Emperor sneered, "They beg for help to enter, yet dare ignore us, let's just go back now, who cares if she can enter or not!"

After saying this, he turned and started walking.

However, he only took two steps before stopping, as a hand was blocking their path.

Silver Miasma Peng Emperor narrowed his eyes; this person with a conical hat was supposed to be the Upper Realm Human Clan person he was looking for, seemingly powerful. But is this the attitude when asking for help?

"You are Miss Kong?" Silver Miasma Peng Emperor snorted, "Do you know how long we've been looking for you?"

"Sorry." The voice under the hat was level, and before Silver Miasma Peng Emperor could speak again, three pure Roc Demon Monarch demon cores appeared in her palm.

Silver Miasma Peng Emperor swallowed his words, his expression softened significantly. Although she held the demon cores of his fellow Roc demons, they clearly came from the Upper Realm, so he accepted them without resistance.

Demon cores are a great supplement for demons.

"I will graciously accept them; you Upper Realm people are quite sensible." Silver Miasma Peng Emperor said as he tossed the prepared passport and other items over, "Handle the rest yourself."

The woman took these items and walked past the Silver Miasma Peng Emperor, "Your attitude isn't good."

"Hmm?"

Silver Miasma Peng Emperor's expression froze; the next moment, he felt a flicker of dark light in front of him. In an instant, the fingers playing with the three demon cores lost control.

Blood gushed from the severed wrist, and the three demon cores vanished; he twisted his head sharply, yet before he could speak, the bones in his knees cracked, and he fell straight down, losing the ability to stand.

"You..."

The woman with the conical hat tossed the three demon cores, "A beast from the Lower Realm isn't worthy to hold things from the Upper Realm."

If it weren't for the passport held by Silver Miasma Peng Emperor, she wouldn't have spoken a single nice word.

Now that she had got what she wanted, a beast from the Lower Realm still thought it could take her things?

As for the Demon Emperor hidden in Wohu Ridge... would he dare make a move?

She stepped into Wohu Ridge, and the low roars of the Silver Miasma Peng Emperor behind her were merely lamentations of a powerless beast to her ears.

Having smoothly passed through the Human Clan's checkpoint, she lifted her head to the Sky Dome when she was about to cross the river, frowning slightly.

She was not the only one who sensed a short dragon's roar.

"Azure Dragon..."

She narrowed her eyes slightly; why was the Azure Dragon here?

Was it also to enter the Human Clan?

What commotion was the Azure Dragon coming to the Human Clan for?

Looking down at the opposite shore, Kong Chan closed her eyes, choosing to let it temporarily go smoothly.

The risks of 'sneaking down' to the Lower Realm are still somewhat significant.

Above the Sky Dome, the transformed Jun Bingquan furiously glared at the Dragon Clan girl to his side, "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on her, how did you let her disappear?"

The Dragon Clan girl retorted, "Her Candle Dragon Bloodline is the most intense, if you can't keep her in sight, how can I!"

"Hurry and find her, who knows where this little ancestor has squirmed off to this time..."

Jun Bingquan contacted the Wandao Sect while rising into the air, attempting to search through the Dragon Clan's bloodlines.

"Hope this little ancestor hasn't ended up back in the Demon Clan, nor stays too long in the void passage..."

······

Taichu Hall.

Zhu Nanzhi's furious voice echoed from within the hall, even shaking down the branches of the withered tree.

"Who gave the Wu Family the courage to propose my husband take a concubine? How dare they?!"

Inside the main hall, Zhu Nanzhi stared intently at the engagement note sent by the Wu Family from Tianjian City, her gaze icy cold.

"Not even worthy of being a maid, yet they wish to be a concubine? What do they take my husband for? A lecherous fool?!"

She couldn't believe there were such fools around!

Even if the Wu Family didn't know Aunt Pei's relationship with her husband, but the Taichu Hall still had Aunt Pei's nominal daughter, Mu Qingyue.
