Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1081: The Demon Lord Is Alive in the Human Realm

"At that time, the situation was urgent. After hiding Ye Qi at Qin Mountain, I led the Demon Clan’s disciples away, and with no way out, I escaped to the Human Realm. Due to severe injuries, I reverted to my original form and was eventually rescued by someone, which is how I later met the Little Princess," Feng Liyan briefly explained, seemingly reluctant to waste words on such trivial matters.

He had summoned the Elders here, dismissed all the servants, and didn’t let Wen Xiao’ai come along, not because there was truly anything to discuss about reorganizing the Cat Demon Clan.

"So that’s how it was. As long as everyone is fine, good. Oh, you just mentioned the reorganization of the Cat Demon Clan. The other Elders and I discussed it earlier, and we unanimously decided to first send the young children of the Clan to..."

"The Demon Lord is not dead."

Feng Liyan suddenly spoke, interrupting the Elder.

The atmosphere suddenly became so silent.

Terrifyingly silent.

The Elders looked at Feng Liyan, whose face was grave, and were stunned by his unexpected words, leaving their minds blank.

For a moment, no one spoke, just staring foolishly at Feng Liyan.

"Are you serious?" Elder Ye, coming to his senses, asked, somewhat in disbelief.

Feng Liyan nodded slightly: "Yes, he has always been in the Human Realm."

"He really didn’t die..."

The Elders exchanged glances, their expressions becoming solemn: "We suspected as much when we knew Ye Qi was afflicted with the Blood Poisonous Insect. Didn’t expect we were right."

"Have you seen him?" Elder Ye asked Feng Liyan again.

Feng Liyan hesitated for two seconds before nodding.

He did see him, but it wasn’t him, it was Xiao’ai.

The Elders paused, beginning to digest this information.

"What is he doing in the Human Realm? Is he reincarnated, thus temporarily remaining in the Human Realm?" an Elder asked, hitting the point.

"Probably," Feng Liyan nodded.

"Then, is this sudden aggression by Zuo Yan towards our Cat Demon Clan under Nie Jiuque’s orders?"

Feng Liyan shook his head slightly: "Probably not. Everyone knows Zuo Yan is ambitious and has always coveted the Demon Lord’s position. He doesn’t dare act recklessly due to the Blood Poisonous Insect, so he’s deliberately creating a mess for the Demon Lord."

Fortunately, Feng Liyan is smart; otherwise, any misunderstanding could be problematic.

The Elders nodded unanimously, seemingly agreeing with Feng Liyan’s judgment and statement.

"I think the Medicine King is right. From what I understand, Demon Lord Nie Jiuque stands tall and upright, loves his people like his offspring, and is a decisive Devil Lord, not a petty man. Besides, our Cat Demon Clan and the Demon Clan hold no grudge, Nie Jiuque wouldn’t do such things."

"This scoundrel Zuo Yan, knowing he can’t claim the Demon Lord’s position, is deliberately enmity between Nie Jiuque and others."

"If the Demon Lord returns to the Demon Realm, we won’t have to take action to avenge ourselves against Zuo Yan; he can tidy up the situation himself."

The more the Elders talked, the more they resented Zuo Yan, but they were less worried about the Cat Demon Clan’s safety.

Because with the Demon Lord still around, Zuo Yan wouldn’t dare go too far.

However, Elder Ye didn’t share this sentiment.

Instead, Elder Ye’s heart was now a hundred times heavier than before.

Because he knew that Wen Xiao’ai’s soul was Shang Ying’s, Nie Jiuque still being alive meant he would inevitably come looking for Wen Xiao’ai...

And the other Elders didn’t know the inside story, believing all along that Wen Xiao’ai was merely just Wen Xiao’ai...

"That may be so, but the matter isn’t that simple."

Before everyone could relax, Feng Liyan spoke again, causing everyone’s hearts to tighten.

"What do you mean?"
