Chapter 597: Chapter 596 Explanation?

"You all have misunderstood Ye Xuan; he was impersonated by the Demon King of the Demon Clan," little Meng Chan explained proactively.

Everyone was slightly taken aback, their gazes shifting towards Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm; he did not speak.

Seeing this, little Meng Chan knew about Ye Xuan’s temperament. She threw the captive Li Sheng behind her onto the ground and said, "This is a Demon Marshal and moreover, one from the Demon Lord’s camp, it was Ye Xuan who captured him alive."

"Moreover, it was Ye Xuan who first discovered the Demon Clan’s massive invasion. It’s just that no one expected those cunning demons to act in advance, even borrowing Ye Xuan’s identity."

Little Meng Chan took the initiative to defend Ye Xuan.

"This is indeed a Demon Marshal, and one at the peak level, nearly stepping into the Demon King’s realm!" Mo Yong, witnessing the young man with white hair lying on the ground like a dead body, spoke with a heavy expression.

What a remarkable achievement it is to capture a Demon Marshal of the Demon Clan!

One must know, the Mo family and the Demon Clan engage in do-or-die battles almost every time, and it is rare to capture the other side alive.

Let alone someone at the level of a Demon Marshal, even capturing a Demon General alive is uncommon.

"How did you manage to capture a Demon Marshal if you can enter this place, indicating your strength has not reached the Saint Realm?" Two of the Mo family cultivators guarding the North Gate were still not willing to let Ye Xuan off, pressing him aggressively.

Little Meng Chan was taken aback for a moment, and with a weird expression on her little face, she said, "Didn’t Mo Yunchui tell you about Ye Xuan’s capabilities?"

Forget about a Demon Marshal; even your family’s awe-inspiring ancestors, Mo Shenchuan and Mountain Tiger, kneel before Ye Xuan.

And you say that his strength has not yet reached the Saint Realm?

Alright then.

Ye Xuan’s realm may indeed be only the Ninth Layer of Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, but can his strength really be measured by realm?

That’s impossible.

Little Meng Chan had personally witnessed how Ye Xuan had slain the Demon King.

With just a single move!

"We didn’t ask you!" The two Mo family cultivators from the North Gate, eyes red, spoke coldly.

Upon hearing this, little Meng Chan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said no more.

She had said what she needed to say already.

Although she understood their thoughts, she knew better that of all of them, Ye Xuan was the most wronged.

"Mr. Ye, please explain," the two Mo family cultivators from the North Gate said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Ye..." Mo Yong also looked at Ye Xuan, saying truthfully, although he was somewhat convinced by little Meng Chan’s words, he still hoped Mr. Ye would speak for himself.

"Hehe————"

Ye Xuan suddenly laughed, turning to look towards the direction of the West Gate, his black eyes as profound as the eternal night, the corners of his mouth lifting in a slight smile, "Explain?"

"Since when do I, Ye Xuan, need to explain my actions to others?"

The world is filled with billions who do not believe in me.

But————

The Undying Night Emperor, I, Ye Xuan, am the only one!

He could understand the thoughts of these two Mo family cultivators from the North Gate; it was merely because the killer bore his likeness, so even if they believed little Meng Chan in their hearts, they still felt distant from Ye Xuan, thus compelling him to explain.

It was understandable.

However.

Understanding did not mean Ye Xuan would agree.

Ye Xuan had his own way of doing things, and he never had the intention to over-explain to others.

And what’s more, to explain to mere ants?

Not to mention a mere Mo family Guard General, even the entire Mo family—did Ye Xuan ever consider them significant?

What needed to be said, had been said already.

From here on, he would do only what he needed to do.

"Ye Xuan..."

Little Meng Chan looked at the scene with complicated emotions, feeling an inexplicable tightness in her heart.

She was well aware of the whole process and outcome of everything.

Yet the people of the Mo family still did not believe in Ye Xuan.

To say nothing of Ye Xuan, even she, a bystander, felt uncomfortable.

When all was said and done, the affairs of the Demon Realm were the Mo family’s business, what did they have to do with Ye Xuan?

The fact that he came back and told you all this was already showing the utmost benevolence and righteousness.

She had already explained what could be explained for Ye Xuan.

Yet you people still do not believe?

’Sigh, after all, my cultivation is insufficient...’ little Meng Chan sighed in her heart.

Why did she, who was once hailed as a female sage of the Confucian sect, choose to dissolve and cultivate anew?

Because her cultivation was insufficient.

Back then, she was acclaimed as the most brilliant prodigy in the Meng Family since Emperor Meng, and in less than a thousand years, she became the only female sage of the time.

But that was as far as she went.

Which is why she chose to dissolve and restart her cultivation.

She was unwilling to settle.

But now, the inexplicable frustration made little Meng Chan realize why she couldn’t advance further back then.

From the ten realms of Confucianism, she was ultimately only in the First Realm...

No matter how strong her power was, her knowledge was lacking.

If her knowledge was sufficient, today, she would have had a good talk with the Mo family’s people, letting them know that Ye Xuan is innocent and has done immense favors for the Mo family!

Boom——

At this moment.

From the direction of the west gate.

The sky darkened.

It was clearly about to be noon, but the sky turned black.

No!

It was an endless tide of black clouds rolling in.

On the ground, a booming sound grew from far to near, as if countless people were charging across the land.

Above the sky dome, it was as if a black deluge was pouring towards this place!

That terrifying scene caused the Mo family guard generals and others defending this place to feel as if their scalps were exploding.

At that moment, all the confusion in their hearts, all the complex emotions, vanished without a trace.

Nothing else mattered.

The Demon Clan’s army had truly arrived!

And as Ye Xuan had said.

Over a hundred Demon Emperors, thousands of Demon Kings, tens of thousands of Demon Marshals, innumerable Demon Generals...

To say it was a Demon Clan army of millions was an understatement — it was probably billions, or even... more!

Boom boom boom——

At the same time, at the North Gate, the East Gate, and the South Gate, three auras soared into the sky, seemingly responding to each other from afar.

The terrifying aura was earth-shattering.

At this moment, Mo Yong and others felt as if the land they were on was about to be trampled through, the sky dome about to be torn apart.

Fighting against the Demon Clan for so many years, they had never felt as terrified as they did now.

An indescribable fear grew in their hearts, leaving them completely unable to move, unable to do anything, just standing there petrified, watching the Demon Clan’s army rapidly approach!

"So many..."

Even Meng Chan, at this moment, took a deep breath, with an extremely solemn expression.

Although Ye Xuan had warned her in advance, when she actually saw the scene, she was still profoundly shaken inside.

What would the scene look like if such forces truly broke out of the Demon Realm entrance and stepped into the East Desolation Domain?

A massacre of all living beings?

A land full of wounds?

Probably both.

She believed that even these Mo family guard generals had never imagined in their lives that within the Demon Realm they fought, there would exist so many terrifying beings.

Or perhaps, they had only heard of them in legends, so they treated them as mere legends and never thought the day would come when they would descend upon them.

The Demon Cloud kept rolling, and powerful Demon Emperors and Demon Kings stood proudly within it.

At the very front were ten figures.

The ten Great Demon Emperors!

"Greetings to the ten Great Demon Emperors!"

The Demon Kings in the directions of the East Gate, South Gate, and North Gate all appeared fervently ecstatic as they performed salutations of worship to the ten Great Demon Emperors.

That scene was clearly witnessed by Mo Yong and the others.

They also saw that the three Demon Kings actually all bore Ye Xuan’s visage!

These three Demon Kings, just like the Illusion Demon King who had died at Ye Xuan’s hand before, all mastered illusion techniques.

Clearly, this had been premeditated.

"We have truly wronged Mr. Ye..." Mo Yong looked at the back of the black-robed youth not far away, who at this moment faced the west, seemingly about to confront the Demon Clan’s massive army head-on.

At this moment, Mo Yong felt extreme shame inside his heart.

It wasn’t just Mo Yong, even the two Mo family cultivators at the North Gate felt ashamed and bowed their heads at that moment.

"Ye Xuan, do you really plan to force your way through?"

Meng Chan’s face was full of seriousness as she asked in a low voice, "Should we retreat to the Mo family and ask Mo Shenchuan and the others for help?"

Ye Xuan didn’t turn around, his gaze fixed on the ten Great Demon Emperors at the very front of the Demon Clan’s army, his expression calm.

This time, his hands were not in his pockets.

In his left hand, a black willow twig slowly appeared.

On the thumb of his right hand, the ink jade ring seemed to shine with a flowing light.

"The laws here are decided by the Demon Lord; they can’t come in, and we can’t go out."

Ye Xuan’s words resonated in Meng Chan’s ears.

"What?" Meng Chan was immediately shocked.

Was the Demon Realm’s exit already under the control of that Demon Lord?

Does that mean they have no reinforcements?

They could only fight with their backs to the water!

But...

How were the few of them going to fight?

Mo Yong and the others, who were already too scared to move, didn’t count at all.

Just Ye Xuan, plus her?
