“Long time no see, everyone…” As he greeted everyone, a smile filled the depths of Yu Zi Yu’s eyes.

 

Though only a few months had passed, to him, it felt like a complete rebirth.

 

Now, wielding the Sixteen Holy Wings, the foundation he once worried about, he finally got his hands on it.

 

How could this not be considered a new beginning?

 

At that moment, as the figures of Nine Tails, Ling Er, and the other experts gazed at him, newly revealed excitement surged within them.

 

With reverence, they all bowed in unison and greeted, “Greetings Supreme Lord!”

 

“En…” Nodding slightly, Yu Zi Yu, wasting no time, switched to his Void Elf Form.

 

His current Angel Form, though powerful, was unfamiliar to many.

 

As Spiritual Energy surged, the space rippled, and from the depths of darkness, a violet figure slowly emerged.

 

Meanwhile, Yu Zi Yu’s Angel Form reverted to his True Body, the Immortal Tree, and carrying the Imperial Artifact, it retreated into the Nine Realms.

 

“Surprised?” With a light chuckle, Yu Zi Yu, now in his Void Elf Form, ascended the throne and sat down leisurely.

 

“This isn’t a surprise, this is a shock.” A voice rang out, and Golden Monkey took a step forward, his tone laced with hesitation, “Master, those golden wings… they’re the legendary Imperial Artifact, aren’t they?”

 

“Yes.” Nodding slightly, Yu Zi Yu admitted directly, “That is the Sixteen Holy Wings, an Artifact of ultimate speed, capable of traversing the cosmos unchallenged, with none able to stop it except for one.”

 

Hearing this, even though he had already suspected the truth, Golden Monkey couldn’t help but gasp.

 

[An Imperial Artifact, that’s really an Imperial Artifact! Master… actually acquired one of those legendary relics!] Realizing this, Golden Monkey looked at Yu Zi Yu as if he were some kind of monster.

 

Others might not understand, but he did. This was an Imperial Artifact, a relic standing at the pinnacle of the cosmos, known as the ‘Eternal Wanderers of the Cosmos.’

 

Each one was enough to be considered the supreme legacy of an entire race. And now, with such a weapon in their hands, the Demon Court, once lacking a strong enough foundation, had finally filled its greatest gap.

 

However, as if sensing Golden Monkey’s thoughts, the corners of Yu Zi Yu’s lips curled into a smirk as he stated, “Golden Monkey… put away those little thoughts of yours. Right now, the Sixteen Holy Wings must remain hidden.”

 

“Remain hidden, huh?” muttering to himself, Golden Monkey suddenly grinned and stated, “It’s fine, it’s fine, Master… as long as we have an Imperial Artifact, nothing else matters!”

 

His voice was filled with barely restrained excitement.

 

The ever-calm Golden Monkey now wore a foolish grin, beaming like an idiot.

 

However, it was understandable.

 

An Imperial Artifact, a symbol of heritage, was enough to render him utterly speechless with joy.

 

After all, in many ways, this meant that the Demon Court had truly ascended to the pinnacle of the cosmos.

 

At that moment…

 

Hearing the exchange between Golden Monkey and Yu Zi Yu, the other experts’ eyes shone with undisguised wonder.

 

Though they did not fully grasp the significance of an Imperial Artifact, seeing Golden Monkey’s uncharacteristic excitement, they knew it must be something extraordinary.

 

Meanwhile, from the side, Demon Phoenix suddenly chuckled and remarked, “No wonder… I couldn’t perceive you clearly, Supreme Lord. It turns out you were concealing such a treasure…”

 

“An Imperial Artifact, a treasured relic, is it?” Yu Zi Yu merely smiled at her words.

 

Very few knew of the existence of Imperial Artifacts.

 

Among the entire Demon Court, only one or two truly understood what such a weapon meant.

 

But one thing was certain, its presence signified that the Demon Court had reached an entirely new peak.

 

…

 

Shortly after, Yu Zi Yu gave a few simple instructions.

 

For one, he ordered that his identity as the Fifth Seraph of the Angel Clan was to remain a secret.

 

For another, the existence of the Imperial Artifact was to be kept hidden.

 

His voice, as he delivered these orders, turned icy, carrying a chilling severity that sent shivers down their spines.

 

Though they were all his most trusted followers, some things still needed to be made clear.

 

As for why he had revealed his Angel Form and the Imperial Artifact to them, it was simple: He wanted to instill them with an unshakable confidence.

 

At this thought, Yu Zi Yu gave his final instruction, “From this day forward, act without restraint. Do not fear any power. Not even the Angel Clan or the Titan Clan, there is no need for any restraint.”

 

Hearing his words, the gathered figures straightened their expressions, responding in unison, “Yes, Supreme Lord!”

 

“En…” Yu Zi Yu let out a soft hum, the corner of his lips curving slightly.

 

With Golden Monkey leading the way, he could rest assured about the Demon Court.

 

Meanwhile, he could focus on organizing the spoils of war. After all, this invasion had reaped an immense harvest.

 

However, struck by another thought, Yu Zi Yu suddenly called, “Avril…”

 

“Present.” A soft voice responded, and a figure with two pairs of violet wings emerged behind him.

 

“Go and inform Zi Lian to halt the invasion… Then, have him come see me.”

 

“Understood, Lord of Corruption.”

 

With those words, Avril transformed into a streak of violet light, vanishing into the depths of the starry sky.

 

Watching her departure, Yu Zi Yu turned and strode into the Realm of Life.

 

As for the rest of the affairs, he would leave them to Nine Tails, Golden Monkey, and the others.

 

After all, it had been a long time since Yu Zi Yu personally managed the Demon Court. Now, he was like a ruler who had relinquished his authority.

 

Not only did he lack the inclination to intervene, but even if he wished to, he would need time to reacquaint himself with the current state of the Demon Court.

 

And all of this was because the once-small faction he had shielded had now grown into a titan ruling over an entire galaxy.

 

In both open confrontation and secret influence, it now stood on par with the most elite forces of the cosmos.

 

…

 

Deep within the Realm of Life…

 

The first sight that greeted him was the sight of the King of Knights and Thorns standing beside the Elf Queen and the Mermaid Queen.

 

Now, seeing Yu Zi Yu’s return, Fredrica pursed her lips into a smile and approached with graceful steps.

 

“Master, this is the compiled battle damage report for the Treant Clan and the Void Clan, gathered by Avril and the others.”

 

As she spoke, she handed over a small booklet.

 

In fact, the Elsa and Fredrica —originally his personal attendants—had long since become more than just that.

 

In many ways, they now served as Yu Zi Yu’s secretaries.

 

Not only did they manage the Nine Realms, but they also handled countless affairs on his behalf.

 

And for that, Yu Zi Yu was grateful for his keen judgment. Fredrica and Elsa had not disappointed him in the slightest.
