It wasn't by choice. Fang Mei's oppressive power was focused entirely on them. With their True Essence and Mysteries suppressed to the absolute limit, it was an involuntary physical reaction. And Heaven knew how much resentment filled their hearts.
How much effort and time had they spent creating a pure land for the Demon Race? The search for the Demon Cave alone had taken a full sixty years, and they had hidden themselves away in the sunless Demon Heart Valley for nearly a century.
Success had been within their grasp, but then Qin Ya had appeared out of nowhere. He was a Martial Artist only at the King Realm, the kind they would never have given a second glance. Yet it was this very King who had sent all their efforts down the drain.
They hated Fang Mei, but they hated Qin Ya even more!!
