I, the Son of the Demon Emperor, Had My Eyes Gouged Out by My Fiancée on Our Wedding Night - Chapter 34

Chapter 34: The Holy Lord’s Wisdom!

A Plea for Help

Inside the Cloud Sword Holy Land…

“Brother Yun, you must help me save my family!”

“If they die… I won’t have the will to live either.”

Xiao Yun’er, having just received the news, rushed to Tang Yun’s palace.

Clad in a flowing green robe, her delicate frame trembled with anxiety. Her porcelain-like face, usually radiant with charm, was now pale with fear.

Her heart was in turmoil.

Though she was safe, her entire family now faced execution.

And the only person she could rely on was Tang Yun.

If he could rescue the Xiao Family…

She would do anything in return.

“I understand. But this matter requires the Holy Lord’s approval.”

Tang Yun’s expression darkened as he spoke.

The thought of approaching the Holy Lord again filled him with unease.

The Cloud Sword Holy Land had already paid a heavy price to protect him and Xiao Yun’er.

To demand they intervene again—

Would be pushing the sect toward ruin.

Facing Lu Yuan alone was one thing.

But confronting the entire Ten Thousand Bones Demon Sect?

The previous battle had left three elders wounded and Holy Lord Yun Conglong injured.

Tang Yun’s reputation within the sect had plummeted.

Though no one dared say it to his face, whispers of discontent had reached his ears.

“Thank you, Brother Yun! You’re so good to me!”

Xiao Yun’er gazed at Tang Yun’s resolute figure, warmth flooding her heart.

Once again, he proved himself—

A man who wouldn’t abandon her in crisis.

Unlike Lu Yuan, who paled in comparison.

No matter his status as the Demon Sect’s Young Master, he could never measure up to Tang Yun.

The Ten Thousand Bones Demon Sect was a den of monsters, after all.

As long as Tang Yun stood by her, she would never leave him.

“Wait here. I’ll return soon.”

Releasing her delicate hand, Tang Yun transformed into a streak of light, shooting toward the grand hall.

The Holy Lord’s Decision

Inside an ancient, majestic hall…

Tang Yun arrived to find Holy Lord Yun Conglong deep in discussion with the elders.

All eyes turned to him, curiosity flickering in their gazes.

Why was the newly appointed Holy Son here instead of cultivating?

“Holy Son Tang Yun pays respects to the Holy Lord and esteemed elders!”

Tang Yun bowed deeply, his tone reverent.

“Tang Yun, what brings you here?”

Yun Conglong smiled warmly.

He had grown fond of this young man—

Blessed with immense fortune and the Heavenly Demon Emperor Eyes.

Once fully matured, he could make the Cloud Sword Holy Land fearless against the Demon Sect.

Tang Yun hesitated, carefully weighing his words.

Asking the sect to intervene again risked backlash.

“The Holy Lord’s divine might, alongside our elders, shattered the Demon Sect’s army and shielded me and Xiao Yun’er. This humble disciple is eternally grateful.”

His voice rang clear, eyes brimming with admiration.

“Hahaha! Holy Son Tang, such courtesy is unnecessary.”

“You are our Holy Son. Protecting you is our duty.”

“The Demon Sect is an evil incarnate. Righteousness and wickedness can never coexist!”

The elders nodded in agreement, basking in the praise.

Even Yun Conglong’s smile widened.

After a pause, Tang Yun continued:

“However… I’ve received troubling news. The Demon Sect plans to bring the Xiao Family to our gates—”

“To execute them publicly.”

“Xiao Yun’er is of the Xiao bloodline. This is a blatant insult to our Holy Land!”

His words were calculated—

Binding the Xiao Family’s fate to the sect’s honor.

If the Demon Sect slaughtered them before the Cloud Sword Holy Land’s eyes…

The sect’s prestige would crumble.

The earlier massacre at Tianfeng City had already tarnished their reputation.

Now, this?

“Such audacity!”

Yun Conglong’s brow furrowed, rage simmering beneath his calm facade.

Would the Demon Sect never relent?

The elders’ expressions shifted, shock and fury flashing across their faces.

None had anticipated the Demon Sect’s ruthlessness.

“Holy Lord, we must strategize carefully.”

“The Demon Sect is like a lingering ghost. Perhaps we should wait for the full Righteous Alliance army.”

“If they dare transport the Xiao Family, we can ambush them en route!”

The elders proposed plans, each eager to claim credit.

Against mere Demon Sect guards, victory seemed assured.

“Silence!”

Yun Conglong raised a hand, his laughter sudden.

“I should thank Lu Yuan for this opportunity.”

“He wouldn’t dare execute the Xiao Family publicly. This is merely a ploy to lure us out.”

“But if he truly goes through with it…”

His eyes gleamed with cunning.

“We’ll strike with our allied Emperors.”

“Saving the Xiao Family before the world’s eyes will humiliate the Demon Sect—”

“And elevate our Holy Land’s glory to new heights!”

The hall echoed with his triumphant laughter.

The Cloud Sword Holy Land was no longer vulnerable.

Another Emperor from the Righteous Alliance had arrived that very day.

With five Emperors now present—

The Demon Sect’s million-strong army was no threat.

Even their Four Great Legions and Five Elders combined couldn’t withstand them.

“This disciple is deeply grateful! I swear to devote myself to cultivation!”

Tang Yun was stunned by the Holy Lord’s immediate agreement.

“Tang Yun, master of the Heavenly Demon Emperor Eyes. Their power will be your greatest weapon.”

Yun Conglong’s tone was earnest, mentoring.

“This disciple will remember your teachings!”

Tang Yun’s gaze hardened with determination.
