'A successor?'
Ye Wushuang froze, his gaze fixed on the Breaking Realm Demon Monarch.
The Breaking Realm Demon Monarch began his tale. "A thousand years ago, I knew my time was short. Unwilling to let my legacy perish with me, I sent my pet, a Treasure-Seeking Rat, out into the world to find a suitable successor."
Listening to the Breaking Realm Demon Monarch, Ye Wushuang had a theory. 'The Treasure-Seeking Rat he mentioned must be the grandfather of my Treasure-Seeking Rat.'
After the Breaking Realm Demon Monarch's Dao perished, the rat was sent out of the Earth Palace to find him a successor.
The unknowing Treasure-Seeking Rat had secretly taken Ye Wushuang to the Demon Abyss to retrieve the Demon God Statue, where they had encountered its grandfather within the statue.
At the time, its grandfather had mentioned the Demon God Statue was connected to the Earth Palace but had concealed the full truth from Ye Wushuang.
