Prologue

Clap...clap...clap... running through the waterlogged streets, splashing circles of ripples, running through the night, I wonder why Elena was taken away at this time. Just now, Lialie didn't do anything to them because of Elena. Is Haisa taking her away because of this?

What's more important is that Elena is still angry at me. How can I let her be taken away so easily?

Haisa seems to have a good relationship with my father. According to the theory of human etiquette, it's not appropriate to engage with him. Moreover, my mother was transformed into that loli by him. I feel unhappy about it! Filled with conflicted and dissatisfied emotions, my heart surges.

"Hu..." Finally caught up. Dozens of people, walking leisurely.

"Hm!" Haisa doesn't seem surprised at the person appearing in the team who hasn't left yet. It seems to be expected.

The guards are on guard from their horses. Looking at my clothes and Elena's, they should guess that we are from the same academy.

I don't want to think too much. The flames of the Demon Fire have just wrapped around my fists, and Haisa punches me in the abdomen.

"Ugh..." The battle on the hillside has depleted my strength. Although the soul integration has made my body convert the power of the soul faster within half an hour, it's still not enough.

"Qin Yang, ten years have passed, but you are still impulsive." Haisa is by my side and doesn't leave. Instead, he says softly.

"Haisa...Uncle!"

"Remember me! My little princess asked me to tell you: 'Your words may be right, but I can't calm my heart. Can you give me a little space to cool down?' You've offended my little princess!"

"Well, according to reason, I should have! But why did you go to such lengths? I don't understand. Such a large group of people, is this necessary for the future?"

"Well, not really. You should know that there are people who shouldn't be mixed in the Qin family and most of the nobles!"

"I know!"

"We are afraid that she will be involved in your affairs and get hurt. Those people are all ruthless and their abilities are far beyond what The Human Realm can withstand. Even your dad may not be able to. So, we are afraid to get too close to you. If anything goes wrong, we will take her back."

"In fact, the undercover agents of the Qin family have already been exposed. There's no need to worry."

"What? So soon? In that case, it doesn't matter. After all, my brother hasn't seen his daughter for a long time. Let's call it a visit to family. I can't come here for nothing! The most important thing is, you made my little princess cry! I just saw it when I arrived!"

"Uh...can we say goodbye?" I've thought about it a lot and feel that this is better for now. My power is not enough to fight against them, and Elena may not want to stay either.

Haisa hesitated for a moment, glanced at Elena, and said, "Well...fine!"

I stood up and looked from a distance at Elena in front of the team. Under the dim streetlights of the night, she appeared hazy, still wiping away tears. I somewhat regret the punch I threw, but at that moment, there was not much I could do.

"Ah..."

"Change someone!" Elena's voice was cold, so cold. I feel like my heart skipped a beat. It's still early winter, not yet bitterly cold, but I feel like I'm wrapped in ice.

I lowered my head. My hair turned silver, and I became calm.

"Elena, there's no need to be so harsh!"

"I...I still can't accept the darkness!"

"Sigh! When will you come back?"

"Next spring, maybe!"

"We...will wait for you! I'll take care of the competition!"

"..." After a moment of silence, I continued, "See you next year!"

"Second Uncle, let's...go!" Elena turned around, obstructing my line of sight with her body, not allowing me to see her tears.

But what I saw, if it's the darkness, it has already rushed forward. We need greater power to keep the people around me living in peace.

"Darkness, before the seal is lifted, was your idea a peaceful future? Is it still now?"

"Is there a difference between the me back then and now? There are always so many things, I don't know when I started feeling tired. Suddenly, there was a period of time when nothing drove me crazy or impulsive. I just felt that that time was so extravagant."

"Agreed! When will that day come?"

"But before we can find that day, we need to find the golden light. It shouldn't be in The Human Realm."

"We know the feeling of the golden light. As long as it is in the same world as us, we can feel it."

"Next stop, The Demon Realm. What do you think, Bai?"

"You remember, according to the report from Yue Zhe, there are still some demons who refuse to submit!"

"Then we'll settle it all at once!"

"Nofice!" Upon hearing the call, Nofice appeared next to me. At first, Nofice was limited by my insufficient magic power, unable to appear and disappear freely. That's why I kept her by my side like a student.

"Master!"

"Help me find Yue Zhe and discuss how we will explain the situation to The Human Realm."

The next day, in the early morning, a shocking press conference spread throughout the imperial city in less than an hour, and then rumors flooded the world, all revolving around one word—Demon Dragon.
