"I know that we, including Boss Tiger, don't think much of Princess Xiaolan, but her status is there, and she does indeed have His Majesty the Demon Emperor's bloodline."
"Even Boss Tiger has agreed to this matter, so no matter how dissatisfied we demon generals are, it's useless."
"In the words of the Wei people, this is called 'a nail on the board!'"
"But to be honest, aside from Princess Xiaolan's half-demon identity, marrying Boss Tiger has many benefits, and with His Majesty the Demon Emperor's support, Boss Tiger might even become the next Demon Emperor."
"By then, wouldn't we be even more successful?"
"..."
Chen Yi listened to the Leopard Demon's so-called fantasies without bothering to respond.
The Half-demon Princess is to marry Emperor Tiger but still passes intelligence about Emperor Tiger to him — clearly wanting to use him to eliminate Emperor Tiger!
Chen Yi figured it out.
This time, he agreed to help Xiaolan escape the Demon Court, not only helping her get rid of the Demon Court's control but also preventing her from marrying Emperor Tiger.
In addition, he could walk through the Ten Thousand Mountains as Emperor Tiger's identity, which is tantamount to directly killing Emperor Tiger...
Damn!
The Half-demon Princess is achieving three goals at once, not to mention her freedom!
But that's not even the most outrageous part — the most outrageous part is that the Half-demon Princess only offers one Blood Core!
If Chen Yi had known this reason earlier, he would have asked the Half-demon Princess to up the ante no matter what.
At least, it should be the Blood Cores of seventeen or eighteen Great Demon Kings.
"Loss!"
"Loss?" The Leopard Demon grinned and said with a smile: "You can say this to me in private, but don't say it in front of Boss Tiger, or he might beat you to death."
"Hehe."
Chen Yi now couldn't wait to beat a demon to death, especially a half-human, half-demon female demon!
All the way without words.
Spending half a day, from midday to nearly dusk, Chen Yi followed the Leopard Demon through thousands of miles across mountains to reach where Emperor Tiger was.
It was a huge mountain he had seen from afar earlier, the foot of the mountain filled with strange rocks, lush with trees, and halfway up was a slightly flat area with many stone houses inhabited by thousands of demons.
These demons had higher cultivation than those on the periphery, generally above the Fifth Grade Realm, with only some obviously newborn demons having lower cultivation as they played and ran around.
However, there weren't many demons in the Third Grade Realm, about two hundred or so in the entire mountain, and more than a dozen demons with cultivation reaching the Second Grade Realm as Demon Kings.
Above the mountainside, they were snow-covered mountains, thousands of feet high, completely white.
Emperor Tiger's Cave Mansion was located at the peak of these snowy mountains, looking from afar like a large house built from stones, with no ostentation or grandeur.
Chen Yi and the Leopard Demon did not stop, following a Second Grade Realm Tiger Clan Demon King of this mountain all the way up.

Chen Yi and the Leopard Demon did not stop, following a Second Grade Realm Tiger Clan Demon King of this mountain all the way up.
"Uncle, how's Boss Tiger's mood right now?" The Leopard Demon asked with a familiar smile.
"Not good," the Tiger Clan Demon King cast it a glance and snorted, "You two better not anger him, or he'll skin you alive as a drink chaser!"
The Leopard Demon repeatedly insisted that it wouldn't dare, smirking as it said: "Boss Tiger didn't say much earlier, and I'm just being cautious on my way."
"As long as you know," the Tiger Clan Demon King glanced at the silent Chen Yi, and with eyes slightly cold said:
"You two are not far from Beixiong Pass, you should know what that bastard Snow Wolf did. Why didn't you try to talk some sense into it?"
"Uncle, you're blaming us wrongly," the Leopard Demon repeatedly cried out, "We advised it not to take so many young ones on the way to Beixiong Pass, but it wouldn't listen."
"It even said it wanted to test the strength of the Taishan Army, but ended up testing nothing and left itself there."
"Lao Xiong knows about this too, right? Lao Xiong?"
Chen Yi grunted, nodding, "That's indeed the case. Snow Wolf brought this upon itself."
The Tiger Clan Demon King glared at them: "Even if it brought this upon itself, both of you are still involved!"
"Don't forget, you are both subordinates of the Great King, stationed at the crucial points around the Ten Thousand Mountains. If one prospers, all prosper; if one suffers, all suffer!"
"With Snow Wolf's death, no matter the reason, it's a disgrace to the Great King once it spreads back to the Ten Thousand Mountains!"
The Leopard Demon nodded, acknowledging it, its leopard face showing some distress: "Uncle, we hope you'll speak for us later. This really isn't our fault."
"Let's wait and see the Great King first, and what other plans it has..."
Listening to the conversation between the two demons, Chen Yi secretly curled his lips but followed silently behind them.
Strands of Slaughter Sword Intent emanated from the palace in his mind, gradually enveloping the mountain range. Reflected by the ice and snow, these strands of Slaughter Sword Intent appeared as inconspicuous as mist.
In his perception, everything on this mountain came under his control, especially the Wolf Demons that were playing, frolicking, or patrolling, which roused Chen Yi's murderous intent.
Goodness, including what was investigated earlier, there were over 30,000 Wolf Demons on this mountain alone.
And these Wolf Demons weren't appearing as tribes but were scattered across various patrol teams and living areas.
"Thirty thousand Wolf Demons, huh, if I slaughter them all, it might reduce 0.3% of my anger."
Chen Yi calculated secretly for a moment and then followed the Tiger Clan Demon King all the way to the cave mansion at the mountain top.
The moment he entered, he sensed four demonic auras brushing past him.
Three of them had cultivation levels similar to the Tiger Clan Demon King's, likely all Second Grade Divine Travel Realm Demon Kings, while the last was slightly stronger, in the First Grade Divine Travel Realm.
Passing through two twisting mountain paths, the place suddenly opened up.
A tall cave mansion resembling a cavern appeared in view, surrounded by stalactites several meters long, with the ceiling adorned with shining gemstones like stars.
The ground was no longer rock but covered with pure white demon pelts, with artifacts hanging on the surrounding mountain walls.
It looked...
Chen Yi thought for a long time and finally came up with an apt description—utterly devoid of any aesthetic!
It was like transitioning from a savage age to a civilized society, a mismatched mess.
In the corner, tanks of liquor were piled up, crudely using stone blocks as chairs, with walls adorned with weapons and calligraphy, like war trophies.
In another corner was a pile of bones, mostly demonic, but with some looking human...
Chen Yi's eyes narrowed, and his gaze fell to the center of the cave mansion, on the tiger demon that had transformed into a humanoid tiger head.
Its aura was strong, stronger than the Monkey Demon that appeared in the Southern Barbarian Secret Realm.
Under Chen Yi's enveloping Slaughter Sword Intent, this tiger demon's cultivation was insignificant, only at the Master Realm.
But it still had a tiger head sword hanging from its waist, and even from far away, Chen Yi could see the extraordinary quality of that sword.
"You're here?"
At that moment, the tiger demon noticed the arrival of Chen Yi and the others, tilting its tiger head slightly, its eyes icy as they looked at them:
"Tell me, with Snow Wolf's death, why are you all still alive!"
"..."
Chen Yi glanced at the Leopard Demon beside him, who almost stumbled, and quietly extended his bear claw to push it forward a few steps.
"You?!"
The Leopard Demon turned back in fright and anger, almost cursing out loud at Chen Yi.
"Hmm? Leopard, then you speak first..."
