Chapter 2459

"Could it be an array?" Miao Hai said. "I remember our clan members saying some demons have unique talents. This kind of array talent is very rare."

It was Miao Hai’s first time encountering an array. Although this one wasn’t particularly complex, he felt the outcome of this trip might not be good.

Miao Hai trusted his instincts. Whenever bad things were about to happen, he always felt a warning. This feeling had never failed him and had helped him avoid many disasters. Now, that familiar sensation returned, suggesting this time would be difficult.

"Brother Li, how about we come back another day?" Miao Hai suggested. To defeat an enemy, one must first ensure their own safety.

"Another day? How? Even if we wanted to, we can’t go back," Li Guangbi replied. He didn’t want to change plans either, but he couldn’t. He realized no matter what, he couldn’t turn back. There was no path behind them.

Zhu Yanyi had long noticed the intruders. She stood at the entrance with Yan Aohan and Ouyang Tianyun, watching the newcomers.

Ouyang Tianyun examined them and asked Zhu Yanyi, "Are these two here to challenge you?"

"Probably," Zhu Yanyi said uncertainly.

Ouyang Tianyun widened his eyes, looking at Li Guangbi and Miao Hai. "They come to challenge you with such mediocrity? What arrogant confidence makes them think they can beat you?"

Zhu Yanyi glanced at Ouyang Tianyun. "Don’t say that. Maybe they have special abilities." She unconvincingly made excuses for Li Guangbi and Miao Hai, who were still struggling in the array.

"Come on. Even if they have abilities, can they compare to a Medical Immortal?" Ouyang Tianyun said calmly.

Since Zhu Yanyi ascended, she had become a Medical Immortal. Demon cultivators were merely demon doctors. Comparing them was like comparing a pebble to an egg.

Yan Aohan asked Zhu Yanyi, "Do you plan to let them solve the array now, or leave them for a day and night?"

Zhu Yanyi raised an eyebrow. "Am I someone anyone can challenge? If they want to challenge me, they must have the ability. First, they must withstand this array. Let’s deal with them after a day and night."

Zhu Yanyi wouldn’t admit she genuinely wanted to see them humiliated and play a prank.

She had arrived in the Demon Realm but hadn’t had a chance to prank anyone properly. Now that demons had delivered themselves to her, it would be a shame not to tease them.

So, Zhu Yanyi decided to teach these two demons a lesson, making them suffer a bit and understand that challenging others comes with a price.

Since Zhu Yanyi said she would release them after a day and night, the three of them ignored Li Guangbi and Miao Hai.

Li Guangbi and Miao Hai wandered in the array for an unknown time until they were exhausted and sat on the ground.

As they sat, they noticed the temperature dropping significantly. Looking up, they saw only a vast whiteness.

Miao Hai worried, "Is it already night?" No matter which way they looked, the scenery was white and foggy, with no sunlight or hope.

"I don’t know. I can’t see outside," Li Guangbi said.

"Judging by this, it seems so. If it’s night, we must be careful. Getting cold would be bad," Miao Hai said.

Fortunately, both were demon cultivators. Li Guangbi had endured countless cold nights before becoming a demon, and Miao Hai, as a cat-person, knew how to resist the cold. So, the two demons silently endured the chill.

"They are quite calm. They don’t seem incompetent," Zhu Yanyi remarked casually.

Yan Aohan, listening nearby, asked, "Should we keep watching?"

"No. Let’s go back and rest. We’ll come back tomorrow morning," Zhu Yanyi said. She didn’t care, as long as they didn’t die.

Zhu Yanyi went back to her room and slept soundly. When she woke up, it was nearly nine in the morning. The sun was already high.

Walking into the courtyard, she saw Ouyang Tianyun and Yan Aohan drinking tea together.

Seeing Zhu Yanyi, Yan Aohan waved her over and handed her the breakfast he had prepared.

Zhu Yanyi ate porridge and buns while glancing at the two demons who were still shivering.

Zhu Yanyi looked at the sky. "The weather is normal now. Why are they still shivering? Is it psychological?"

"I don’t know. Release them and ask," Ouyang Tianyun said.

Zhu Yanyi nodded. She had only planned to trap them for a day and night anyway. Checking the time, she felt it was appropriate. She tapped the array, and Li Guangbi and Miao Hai suddenly saw sunlight. The coldness on their bodies vanished instantly.

Li Guangbi and Miao Hai rubbed their eyes and looked around. They saw a man and a woman sitting on stone benches nearby, with one of them eating.

Seeing them eat so appetizingly, Li Guangbi and Miao Hai unconsciously swallowed. Li Guangbi asked, "Who are you?"

"Before asking who we are, shouldn’t you introduce yourselves first?" Ouyang Tianyun said. "This is our home. You broke in without permission. Now you ask who we are? Isn’t that funny?"

Ouyang Tianyun’s expression made Li Guangbi and Miao Hai realize they were still in the Yan family’s residence.

"Are you Zhu Yanyi?" Li Guangbi asked, looking at Ouyang Tianyun.

"Hey, hey, hey. What do you mean she is Zhu Yanyi? Can’t you recognize people?" Zhu Yanyi complained. "This name is obviously for a woman. How could it be her? She is not Zhu Yanyi. I am Zhu Yanyi. If you speak without knowing who you’re talking to, you might get beaten up."

Zhu Yanyi clenched her fists in dissatisfaction, showing a warning gesture.

Li Guangbi and Miao Hai were stunned. Li Guangbi looked at Zhu Yanyi, who was happily eating. "You are Zhu Yanyi?"

"Can’t I be? Can’t I be Zhu Yanyi?" Zhu Yanyi was very dissatisfied with Li Guangbi’s question.

Li Guangbi couldn’t figure it out. The woman in front of her looked ordinary, yet she had such power. Was it all hype? Li Guangbi absolutely didn’t believe that excuse. After all, the Demon Realm wasn’t built on bragging. Such a reason was unrealistic.

"Are you really Zhu Yanyi?" Li Guangbi still held a skeptical attitude.

Zhu Yanyi no longer wanted to bother with Li Guangbi. It seemed this person had a problem with her head, otherwise why ask the same question over and over? How boring could one be?

Ignoring her, Ouyang Tianyun answered instead. "Yes, she is Zhu Yanyi. Who are you?"
