"You all back off." Ling Yun said as he took out the Chaos Dragon Scythe, and he imbued his light Qi into it.
Seeing that, Mao and the others immediately moved away, especially since Ling Yun's Light Qi was their nemesis, and Iris asked them. "How can he have two elements? Moreover, Light and Dark Element are two different poles, and the two shouldn't be able to mix, yet that man can do it."
"Haha!" Basaus laughed at his mother's words. "Mother! You have heard for yourself that the man in black beside my brother-in-law is a dragon, so he is definitely not an ordinary man!"
"Basaus is right, Iris." Mao also said to her. "Otherwise, Ling Yun wouldn't be able to kill Mammon if he were an ordinary person, right?"
After hearing their words, Iris only nodded, and her eyes kept on Ling Yun's back, but she also kept wondering about him.
On the other hand, Ling Yun had already transformed into his half-dragon form, and the Chaos Dragon Scyte had been shining brightly due to his Light Qi. He then took a deep breath and swung the scythe towards the black crystal a few times, and some Light Qi slashed at it directly.
*Crack...Crack...*
Hearing the cracking sound of the crystal, Mao clenched her fists tightly, especially since Diablo was the key to overturning the situation in the Demon Realm. Even though her strength had been reduced a lot, she still believed that she would be able to do it.
Moments later, the black crystal shattered into pieces. Ling Yun immediately stored his scythe and jumped to catch Diablo.
Suddenly, Diablo's demon core moved towards them, and it directly entered her body through her mouth, making Mao heave a sigh of relief after seeing that.
"Is she really the true ruler of this realm, Mao?" Iris suddenly asked Mao because she still couldn't believe her previous explanation.
"Why would I lie to you? You will find out all the truth later." Mao then approached Ling Yun and asked him. "What about her condition?"
However, the Chaos Dragon answered her. "This woman has been cooped up here for too long, even though she has regained her demon core, but she won't wake up anytime soon."
"I know." Mao nodded in agreement with him. "At least Diablo is free now, and we just need to wait for her to wake up."
"Since our business here is settled, we should head back now." Ling Yun then asked Duan Wu. "Can you use your dimension travel from here?"
Hearing that, the Chaos Dragon returned to Ling Yun's body, and Duan Wu enveloped them with her Qi. However, she immediately shook her head at him, for she couldn't use her ability. "Apparently, there are a lot of restrictions in this place, so I can't use it."
"It's fine; we will get out of this place first, and we can return to the Cultivator Realm afterwards." Ling Yun said as he led them to the exit.
Ling Xi immediately warned him. "Hey, Ling Yun! I think Lucifer and the others are already waiting for us in front of the portal, so you'd better be prepared to face them."
"I know." Ling Yun nodded to her. "However, we won't be fighting them for now, so you can just take us away as soon as we get out."
"So are you bringing Luo Yan to Lillith's place now?" Ling Xi asked him again.
Ling Yun directly answered her. "Since we are in this realm now, we will go directly to Lillith to warn her, and I will leave Luo Yan with her."
"Eh? Do you also have a relationship with Queen Lillith, Ling Yun?" Iris asked in surprise.
Ling Yun thoughtlessly answered Iris' question. "Even though Lillith isn't my official woman, I've known her for a long time, and we've also been intimate a few times."
Iris' jaw dropped after she heard that, especially since she knew that Lucifer coveted Lillith, but he never managed to get her, and she chose to be with a human like Ling Yun instead.
Zoe shook her head at her mother's reaction; she embraced her shoulder and told her. "Mother, some of Ling Yun's women are very special; even Queen Lillith can't compare to them."
"Hmm?" Iris turned to her daughter with raised eyebrows.
"You may not know it, but Sister Xi is the most special of them." Zoe said to her mother again as she pointed at Ling Xi, who was leisurely sitting on Ling Yun's shoulders. "Anyway, she is not a human but a spirit; her small form is not her real form, and her real form is truly incomparable."
"A spirit?" Iris was surprised to hear that and looked at Ling Xi in astonishment. "I've heard of spirits, but this is the first time I've met one. Moreover, her appearance is no different from humans, so I can't recognize that she's a spirit."
Ling Xi looked back and told her. "Hey, we spirits do look no different from humans, but we are also different at the same time."
"I see." Iris nodded in understanding, but she still had many questions regarding Ling Yun and Ling Xi in her mind.

Just as Ling Xi expected, Lucifer and the other four demon lords had already arrived in front of the portal, and Satan asked him. "Is it true they entered this dungeon to free Diablo? But how could they do it?"
"I don't know how they managed to do it myself, but Levi told me that the royal cat demon was free from Mammon prison, and she brought them here." After he said that, Lucifer fell silent for a while and thought, but he himself felt confused about that.
Asmodeus suddenly asked him. "Hey, Luci! Ever since we locked Diablo in this place, we haven't been able to find her demon core, right? Could it be that the royal cat demon had it all along?"
"No." Lucifer shook his head at her. "The reason I ordered Mammon to confine that woman was because of that, and I had checked her body many times, but I couldn't find Diablo's demon core inside her body."
"If that's true, she must have hidden it somewhere else before and only got it back after he was released from prison." Beelzebub said to them.
They nodded in agreement with him, and Satan asked again. "So what are we going to do now? Are we going to go inside to look for them?"
"Why do we have to do that?" Asmodeus asked back as she shook her head. "The areas inside this prison are always misleading, and we will have a hard time finding them, so it would be better for us to wait for them here, especially since this portal is the only way out."
"Asmodeus is right; we just have to wait here for now." Lucifer said as he nodded in agreement.
Satan could only nod resignedly at their answers, especially since he himself had entered the prison before and had been lost in it for quite a while.
Sometime later, the portal finally shone, and they immediately went on alert to capture Mao and the others. However, they became confused because no one came out of it; even after the portal had dimmed again.
Unfortunately, they didn't notice that Ling Yun and the others were already in front of them, but the demon lords couldn't see them because Ling Xi used her aura to conceal them.
Before Ling Xi led them away, Ling Yun said to her. "Wait a minute! Since Asmodeus is in front of me now, I will not waste this opportunity, and I will use the Dream Creation Technique on her first."
"Okay."
Asmodeus was startled when she felt someone touch her body, and she spun around on the spot looking for Ling Yun, but she certainly couldn't find him.
After Ling Yun did that, Ling Xi directly brought them all to Lillith's palace.
"What's wrong with you, Asmodeus?" Lucifer asked him.
Asmodeus shook her head. "Just now, I felt someone touching my body, but I can't feel the presence of anyone else around us."
Lucifer frowned after he heard that, and he got a bad feeling from their situation, so he said to them. "Let's go inside; I'm afraid something unexpected has happened."
Satan and the others nodded in agreement with him, and they immediately entered Diablo's prison.

Meanwhile, Lillith smiled widely the moment she saw Ling Yun, and she ran to jump into his embrace. However, she immediately stopped as soon as he saw Diablo in his arms, and she asked him. "Who is this little girl? Why am I so familiar with her? But at the same time, I can't remember anything about her."
"Her name is Diablo, and she is the true ruler of this demon realm." Ling Yun explained to him as he looked at her cute face.
Hearing that, Lillith looked at Ling Yun in confusion, for she also couldn't remember about Diablo, like with the other demons.
"Diablo is indeed the true ruler of this realm." Lillith turned to Mao in surprise, and she immediately explained everything to her. "For now, we will bring her back to the human realm to recuperate, and I hope you don't tell the other demons about her."
"Don't worry, I also want this Demon Realm to be peaceful again, so I won't tell anyone about Diablo." Lillith then asked Ling Yun. "Don't you want to spend some time with me first?"
