Gu Shanhai successfully took over the Demon King City and even unprecedentedly ruled the entire Hero Continent, with many different races submitting to him.
But in truth, he didn't do anything—the people below just took care of everything for him.
He didn't even manage affairs; the various races continued to live as they had before, merely discussing how to divide the territory of the former Holy Empire.
Of course, there were no benefits left; Gu Shanhai had created a mess.
Correspondingly, though, he gained a lot, as the various races contributed a vast amount of knowledge that was pretty much pointless.
Gu Shanhai was now researching Demonic Qi, which is what the Demon King was composed of.
He discovered something—that Demonic Qi seemed to be continuously growing. While Gu Shanhai couldn't trace its source, he did know what it was.
World negative energy.
