Xu Longnian shuttled through the mysterious void rift in the secret realm. A strong feeling of dizziness instantly hit him. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in another world.

He had only one thought in his mind, and that was to pursue Tamamoso's scent.

After repeated explorations and sensing, he was sure that Tamamomo was not far away from him at this moment.

Xu Longnian no longer hesitated and immediately rushed towards the direction where Yumaomo was.

His figure shuttled through the forest, like a flash of lightning across the night sky, swift and determined.

However, Yumaomao was completely disappointed with Xu Longnian at this time. She was filled with bitterness and helplessness, and silently crushed a piece of jade in her hand.

This jade is a treasure used by the fox demon clan to communicate, and it contains magical power. As the jade shattered, a dark light shot up into the sky and quickly spread far away.

This is the signal for her to summon her protector. Soon, her protector will follow the light to find her and take her back to the distant and wild demon realm.

At this moment, Tamamomo's heart was filled with determination.

Now she would rather continue to be confined at home by her tribe members than to see Xu Longnian's face again.

"Zao Zao, I am fully aware of my mistakes and I sincerely hope you can give me another chance to correct them." Xu Longnian walked up to Yumaozao, his tone full of pleading and regret.

However, Tamamomo just glanced at him indifferently and shook her head slightly, as if she had already seen through his hypocrisy.

"My protector has arrived." She said lightly, with a hint of indifference in her voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, a wave of vibrations was heard in the distant void. Then, an old woman in a simple robe slowly stepped into the air. Her steps were steady and powerful, as if every step was at the node of time.

The old woman's sudden appearance was like a gust of cold wind in the dark night, which instantly caused Xu Longnian to feel an inexplicable sense of tension in his heart.

He keenly sensed that this seemingly ordinary old woman actually exuded a powerful and heart-pounding aura.

The aura was majestic and deep, as boundless as the ocean. It was obvious that he had already stepped into the peak of the fifteenth realm and could be called the most powerful person in the demon world.

The old woman's eyes swept over Xu Longnian with a bit of scrutiny and disdain, then she slowly turned around and bowed slightly to Yumaomo.

"Your Highness, you really made it easy for me to find you."

The old woman's voice was hoarse and low, like a dead branch in autumn swaying in the wind.

When Tamamomo heard this, a trace of sadness flashed across her beautiful eyes, making her already bloodless face even more miserable.

She opened her red lips slightly, with a hint of trembling and helplessness in her voice.

"Grandma Yu, please take me back. I don't want to stay here anymore."

Her voice echoed in the air, drifting like fallen leaves, carrying endless sorrow and disappointment.

At this moment, the old woman called Jade Grandma seemed to notice the unusual weakness in Tamamomo.

It was an indescribable aura emanating from Tamamoso.

She suddenly turned her head, her eyes as sharp as torches, staring straight at Xu Longnian.

There was a blazing fire in those eyes, as if it was going to devour Xu Longnian.

In her heart, she already regarded Xu Longnian as the culprit who caused the eldest princess' weakness.

Xu Longnian felt the strong murderous intent and was startled. He quickly took several steps back to distance himself from Grandma Yu.

He knew that at this moment, he was as fragile as an ant in front of this old woman.

However, at this moment, Tamamomo's cold and firm voice rang out.

"Grandma Yu, this matter has nothing to do with him. You don't need to vent your anger on him." Although her words were cold, they revealed an unquestionable majesty.

Grandma Yu was slightly stunned, and there was a hint of doubt in her eyes when she looked at Tamamomo.

Tamamomo continued.

"In order to perform that powerful secret technique, I burned a lot of my blood and energy, which led to my current weakness. All of this has nothing to do with him."

After hearing Yumaomo's explanation, the anger in Grandma Yu's eyes subsided a little.

She looked at Xu Longnian deeply, then turned and walked to Yumaomo and asked with concern.

"Your Highness, Princess, are you really alright? Do you need me to treat you?"

Yumaomo shook her head to indicate that she was fine, and her eyes no longer fell on Xu Longnian.

Seeing this, Grandma Yu also saw some subtleties. However, when her eyes fell on Xu Longnian, there was obvious contempt in her eyes.

How can such an insignificant person be worthy of the honorable Princess?

Only outstanding heroes can stand shoulder to shoulder with Tamamo.

Then, Grandma Yu smiled kindly, turned to Tamamomo, and said softly:

"Your Highness, your leaving quietly this time has caused great sorrow to my mother. She misses you day and night and has lost her appetite."

"After careful consideration, my mother asked me to convey her feelings to you."

"The adults think that you have grown up now and are no longer the ignorant little girl you used to be."

"I should look for happiness in your life."

"After you return, my Lord has decided to hold a grand banquet for you."

"Then all the demon tribe heroes will gather together to witness your demon initiation ceremony."

"And you will also select a prince consort who is not only handsome but also outstanding in strength at the demon clan banquet."

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Tamamo's eyes, but was soon replaced by calmness.

In the tradition of the fox demon clan, finding the other half of life means being able to completely break away from the protection of parents and start living an independent life.

This is not only a sign of growth, but also a yearning and pursuit for freedom.

At this moment, the mother's decision undoubtedly gave Tamamomo a rare opportunity to choose.

She will get a fiefdom of her own, where she can live according to her own wishes and pursue her own happiness.

At this moment, a glimmer of gratitude flashed quietly in the depths of Tamamomo's eyes.

She knew very well that her mother was paving a smooth road to happiness for her in her own unique way.

The pressure and constraints of the past seemed to disappear at this moment.

Her mother no longer insisted on shaping her into the future heir, nor did she force her to do things against her will.

As the only blood descendant of her mother, she was well aware of the storm this decision would cause among the fox demon clan.

However, her mother still chose this path without hesitation and pointed out the direction for her future.

"Since this banquet is so grand, I, Xu Longnian, am also willing to attend it."

Xu Longnian spoke.

As the reincarnation of a former emperor, he knew very well that the world of demons was completely different from that of humans.

Here, there are no complicated etiquette and rules. Only strength is the basis that determines everything.

The strong are respected, and the weak can only bow down and submit.

This grand banquet held by the demon race is actually similar to the human race's martial arts competition to win a bride.

The purpose of the martial arts competition to win a bride is to find an ideal husband, and the demon clan's banquet is also to select the strongest warrior to become Tamamomo's consort.

"Hmm? You human boy, when is it your turn to speak?!"

Grandma Yu's brows suddenly knitted together, and a look of displeasure appeared on her face. The demonic power in her body burst out like the turbulent waves of the river!
