Looking into the projection, she saw the Sacred Child sitting on Wang Ke's lap as they both occupied the Sect Lord's throne. They were having a good chat with the three Parlor Lords. Long Yu's nose no longer tingled; she was in more of a daze.

"Why? How did this happen? How did Wang Ke sit on the Sect Lord's throne? Did no one stop him? How did this happen? You Parlor Lords! Weren't you so particular about the ranking of seats? Wang Ke is sitting above you, yet none of you stop him? Does none of you care? Why?" Long Yu muttered to herself in shock.

At this moment, Long Yu really felt lost when she saw Wang Ke chit-chatting with the rest. It was her first time seeing something so creepy after being in the demonic sect for so many years.

On the Crystal Palace's parade square.

The Sacred Child dragged Wang Ke up the Sect Lord's throne. Everyone shot him death stares while the Branch Lords started vilifying him. Wang Ke knew better; he knew that he was merely a prisoner and had no need to take advantage of the situation. I better get down from here first. But the Sacred Child insisted grumpily, "Wang Ke, you can't leave. Just sit here. If you don't, I won't sit here either! Humph!”

Se Yutian glared at the Sacred Child.

Se Yutian wanted to drive Wang Ke off the throne, but the Sacred Child was emotionally unstable. His insistence for Wang Ke to stay by his side made Se Yutian very frustrated.

Se Yutian had a murderous look on his face, but he signaled his subordinates to stand down.

Zhu Hongyi was forced to participate in the ceremony; all that was on his mind was the injured and captured She Qingqing. He cared not who sat where neither had he the intention to drive Wang Ke off.

As for Zi Bufan, she had a contemplative look, as though she had some thoughts on her mind but she did not speak.

"Guys, it's obvious to you. The Sacred Child is too passionate; I can't help it either. I want to come down too. Why don't you help me persuade the Sacred Child a little?" Wang Ke looked the demons in frustration. And all the demons were glaring at him. If looks could kill, Wang Ke would be dead by a thousand stabs. As so, Wang Ke continued to shower everyone with words of humility, but everyone ignored him.

And he could only sit on the throne, feeling ridiculous. Meanwhile, Wang Ke's speech to the rest looked to Long Yu like he was having a good chat with everyone, and no one stopped him.

"This is such a freaky day! If you don't persuade the Sacred Child to let me down, I will really sit here, ya?" Wang Ke said doubtfully.

And everyone had a black face.

"Wang Ke, it's okay. I allow you to sit; just sit!" The Sacred Child said happily.

Wang Ke: ".........!”

"Se Yutian, didn't you say that the First Parlor Lord is coming? Why isn't he here yet?" The Sacred Child sat beside Wang Ke and asked.

"He should be here soon; he promised me!" Se Yutian answered.

"Caw!”

At that moment, they heard the caw of a crow coming from some distance away.

And everyone turned their eyes and watched as an ordinary-looking crow flew through the dense fog. The crow circled above the First Parlor Lord's throne for a short while before landing on it.

Meanwhile, no one stopped it.

"First Parlor Lord?" Se Yutian said to the crow with a frown. "Caw!" The crow responded.magic

"The legendary mysterious First Parlor Lord is a crow?" Wang Ke muttered doubtfully.

And the crow suddenly spoke, "Who is this brat? Why is he sitting on the Sect Lord's throne?”

Wang Ke's eyes widened in shock as he looked at the crow speak. "He is Wang Ke! The Sacred Child's friend! The Sacred Child is the one who insisted that Wang Ke sits by his side! First Parlor Lord, what's this? Didn't you promise me to come for the Sacred Child's succession ceremony?" Se Yutian frowned.

Wang Ke looked at Se Yutian in bewilderment.

"Se Yutian? Do you really hope that I come for the Sacred Child's ceremoy?" The crow looked at Se Yutian suddenly.

Although the crow showed no expression, Wang Ke could sense its implicit sarcasm.

"Hmm?" Se Yutian stared at the crow.

The bird flapped its wings and swept its glance at everyone, "Se Yutian, seems like you have convinced Zi Bufan and Zhu Hongyi. Good! I won't waste more breath. I close one eye on the Demon Sovereign's death! But I will only recognize the Sacred Child as the new Sect Lord!”

"You really like to be a busybody, huh!" Se Yutian said coldly. "I don't fancy managing our sect's internal affairs. But this is basic principle. The Demon Sovereign is just a transition! Only the Sacred Child is qualified to succeed as the Sect Lord. This is my final baseline. Fortunately, you didn't think about becoming the Sect Lord directly!" The crow said.

"Humph! What do you mean by this?" Se Yutian snorted coldly.

"I acknowledge nominating the Sacred Child as the new Sect Lord! But I won't be coming for the ceremony! You don't wish I come anyway! Don't worry, I won't compete with you over the authority! You just want my command token! Here you go! Remember! Only the Sacred Child can succeed as the Sect Lord! If it's anyone else, I will surely kill that person!" The crow threatened.

"Humph!" A murderous look flashed in Se Yutian's eyes.

But the crow seemed to not see it. It opened its mouth suddenly,

"Caw......!”

The crow spat out a command token, which dropped on the First Parlor Lord's throne. And the moment the token left the crow's mouth, it burst into a radiant flame.

"Baaaam!”

And so, the crow turned into ash amidst the flames. Only the command token was left on the throne.

"Oh, the crow is just delivering something! I was wondering why the First Parlor Lord looks like that!" Wang Ke commented with a strange look. Se Yutian took the First Parlor Lord's token before looking toward Zi Bufan and Zhu Hongyi.

"Good. All the tokens are here. We can start the ceremony to let the Sacred Child become the new Sect Lord! Take out your command tokens, combine them, and usher the Sacred Child to the position!" Se Yutian ordered.

"The four tokens form one, the Sacred Child enthroned!" All the demonic sect disciples cheered.
