Chapter 2079: Chapter 215: First Battle! A Glorious Victory
âŠ
Whatâs the big deal if I have a round face, huh? And my face only has a bit of baby fat, okay? Itâs a symbol of fortune, donât you know?
Wang Fugui muttered in his heart but didnât dare to show it openly, so he could only manage an awkward yet polite smile.
However, midway through his smile, his expression suddenly froze.
Wait a minute!
The key point doesnât seem to be the round face butâŠâfuture husbandâ?
What the heck is that? When did I, Wang Fugui, suddenly get a fiancĂ©e? And sheâs just a five or six-year-old toddler?
ââŠâ
Yun Mengyu also looked dumbfounded, glancing at the weeping Princess Zhao Yu, then at Wang Fugui, full of uncertainty.
What exactly is going on? When did Fugui hook up with this little one?
For a moment, not just Wang Fugui and Yun Mengyu, even the Immortal Emperorâs expression was a bit subtle.
The room suddenly quieted down, except for the cries of Princess Zhao Yu, no one spoke temporarily, and the atmosphere was somewhat eerie.
âAhem ahem ahem~â
The Third Prince awkwardly cleared his throat and flicked Princess Zhao Yuâs forehead with a finger: âWhy are you bawling? The words have barely been written down, why are you crying so heartbrokenly?â
âAh woo ooo~â Princess Zhao Yu cried even more sorrowfully, âWhat do you mean the words have barely been written down? The Old Ancestor said everything can be agreed to, and that I should be followed, as for the marriage with Wang Fugui, itâs up to his elderly decision. Boo hoo~~ Old Ancestor is too unreasonable.â
Everyone suddenly came to a realization.
It turns out this mess was caused by the Demon Emperor.
After figuring out the cause and effect, the Immortal Emperorâs eyebrows instantly arched upward, and a sense of great wariness arose in his heart, cursing internally without end.
Oh, you Red Hell Demon Emperor! After suffering a major setback at Wang Fuguiâs hands, failing to win over people face-to-face, you still have a wicked heart, wanting to continue undermining the foundation of the Immortal Dynasty! Shameless!
Hmph!
Just praised that old thing for being sensible and having a broader perspective, but seems like thatâs all there is to him.
âChuan Nan.â The Immortal Emperor immediately signaled to Yun Mengyu, speaking through a sound transmission, âYou must hold onto your man, donât really let the Demon Emperor, that damned thing, succeed.â
âOld Ancestor.â Yun Mengyu awkwardly replied through sound transmission, âWhat kind of talk is that? Fugui and I are just friends⊠Besides, Zhao Yu is only a tiny little thingâŠâ
âWhat if sheâs tiny? You were tiny back then and didnât you rope Fugui in, and in less than ten years, sheâll be a young girl.â The Immortal Emperor coldly snorted through the sound transmission, âYou must not be careless, the Demon Emperor, that damned thing, is very deceitful, and never knows what shame is.â
âUnderstood, Old Ancestor.â Yun Mengyu also worriedly replied through sound transmission, âThen, should we have someone else receive the Third Prince and Princess Zhao Yu?â
âThereâs no need for that.â The Immortal Emperor transmitted back, âIf it reaches the Demon Emperorâs ears, they might think we were scared of him. In short, you just be more cautious~â
As they communicated through a sound transmission, the Third Prince finally managed to comfort Princess Zhao Yu.
Then, according to custom, the Immortal Emperor briefly greeted the Third Prince and Princess Zhao Yu, and then, under the pretense of busy wartime, temporarily departed, leaving Wang Fugui and Yun Mengyu to entertain the delegation from the Demonic Dynastyâs army.

Meanwhile.
Outside the domain, in the Demonic Realm.
In the heart of the Demonic Realm under the Demon God of Darkness and Killâs domain.
On a gently sloping, spacious hilly plain, a magical army of about ten thousand was resting on the spot.
This army obviously had traveled a long distance, and those ordinary lower-level Demonic Clan members looked utterly exhausted.
The leading Demonic Clan lord sat atop a giant demonic beast, cursing and swearing at something.
They were three demons with appearances vastly different from humans, burly figures with a savage aura. Their huge heads were bald, not a single hair, and their bodies bore heavy, hard keratin layers, with exposed skin radiating a sinister black-purple hue, looking vicious and fierce.
From afar, the densely packed magical army appeared like a dark mass, the Demonic Evil Energy emitting from them connected into sheets, much like a thick cloud, exerting an imposing aura that could terrify anyone without doing anything.
On the flat ground in the distance, a clump of dirt was suddenly pushed up, producing a faint noise.
Soon after, a covert goldfish eye quietly emerged from the soil, looking left and right, seemingly âobservingâ the surroundings.
Deep underground, two girls dressed in sporty outfits and a Trashy Rat were crowded at the other end of a copper tube, trying to observe the situation outside in a hurry.
These two young women, of course, were the long-lost Wang Licui and Lan Wanyi. As for the copper tube in their hands, it was naturally the set of Optical Peeping Mirrors.
Since entering the Demonic Realm, this set of Optical Peeping Mirrors could be said to have been critically valuable, saving the two girls and a rat an untold number of troubles.
Indeed, relying on this equipment, they can now observe the groundâs situation from deep underground, greatly enhancing safety.
âSigh~â
However, seeing the situation on the ground, the two girls and one rat exchanged glances and collectively heaved a sigh.
Previously, they had chased that demonic cultivator old man too far, and despite using the fastest speed to return, they were still delayed midway.
Now, the return journey was filled with Demonic Clan everywhere, and even the previously sparse wastelands were occasionally occupied by marching demonic armies, forcing them to detour and evade. At times when a detour was impossible, they could only hastily dig underground passages to pass through underneath.
