Wen Yu had a beaming smile and did not respond to Regas's request. Regas, however, wore an angry expression but did not take any extreme actions.
This was enough to prove that Wen Yu's arrival at the Demon Palace was indeed the demon lord's intention.
After extracting this information, Wen Yu casually chatted with Regas about trivial matters, but Regas only responded with the word "scram" and did not say anything more.
In the face of Regas's stern defense, Wen Yu simply shrugged until the three of them arrived in front of an imposing building.
The words "Demon Palace Security Bureau" hung prominently above.
“Shh... impressive!”
Wen Yu whistled playfully and then followed Regas and Feili inside.
The building occupied a vast area, with countless demonic clan masters bustling about inside, but when they saw Feili and Regas, they stopped their work and greeted the two with respect.
Along the way, Feili had already introduced himself as the director of the Demon Palace Security Bureau—although he often dealt with foreign affairs, his influence within the bureau was unmatched.
After all, in the entire Demon Palace, aside from the demon lord, there seemed to be no one who could withstand even one of Feili's moves.
Regas, upon arriving directly at the headquarters of the Xiongfeng City Security Bureau, also won great respect thanks to his previous status as the last seat in the highest seven-person council of the demonic clan military department.
There was no way around it; Wen Yu had discovered during his last visit that while there were many eleventh level strongmen in the Demon Palace Security Bureau, they were all weaklings—the strongest among them were only on par with the Wen Yu of that time. After witnessing the battle between the spirit of the demon lord and Feili, Wen Yu immediately felt that the so-called Demon Palace Security Bureau was really nothing special.
Because of this, even though Regas had become almost entirely depleted of his origin power, he still became the second strongest after Feili here.
It's no wonder people say that life's fortunes always repeat themselves.
Regas used only three days to find his second chance at life in the Demon Palace Security Bureau, revitalizing his career...
The three of them passed through the main hall of the Demon Palace Security Bureau and proceeded further inside. Soon, with Regas leading the way, they arrived at the 39th underground level of the Demon Palace Security Bureau.
The bright steel corridor and the airtight security measures all indicated the importance of this place.
After passing through hundreds of layers of security precautions, the three finally reached a large hall.
In the center of the hall, a miniature portal flickering with blue light appeared before them.
“This is the only entrance to the uppermost level of the Demon Palace,” Feili explained to Wen Yu, then, wanting to enter the demon lord's residence, he was unexpectedly blocked by Regas, who stretched out his hand in front of Wen Yu.
“The demon lord has commanded it; my godfather can enter, but Wen Yu cannot.”
This simple statement caused both Wen Yu and Feili to frown. Wen Yu shrugged dismissively and stepped back, indicating that he had little interest in meeting the demon lord.
After all, this matter did not depend on Wen Yu's will—if he wanted to see Wen Yu, he would naturally do so; if he didn't want to see him, it meant there was nothing of importance, and thus, Wen Yu had no compulsion to meet him.
Wen Yu made his stance clear, and Feili did not insist further. He entered the portal alone, leaving only Regas and Wen Yu standing in the hall, an awkward atmosphere surrounding them.
“So, did the battle above end in defeat?”
After a moment of silence, it was Regas who spoke first. His tone was regretful, his voice filled with sorrow, but he did not express much shock or anger.
“From your accent, you must have guessed it a long time ago, right?”
Wen Yu replied briefly, causing Regas to sigh.
