Chapter 30: Cleaning Up the Demons

  After worshiping Nan Gong Zhi Qiang, the group returned to Kuang Sha Pavilion. Seeing that Zhi Qiang was less talkative, Mo Jiu felt anxious in her heart, but she also had no way to help him.

  "Yaotou, are you tired?" He gently held her in his arms, and this weak and listless appearance made Mo Jiu's heart ache.

  "It's okay..." She shook her head lightly, she was just feeling a bit sentimental for the time being. "Just now he said he found out why those demons came to the human world, can you tell me what it is?"

  "Don't worry!" After changing her posture to make herself more comfortable, Mo Jiu You finally spoke up.

  "I report to Your Majesty, the number of these demons was originally not many, but coincidentally they were all with the strongest reproductive ability. In the demon world, they could still be controlled, but in this human world, they became unscrupulous and reached an astonishing number in a short period of time. The reason they came to the human world is because we were searching for the young master in the human world at that time, which led to the mistake caused by the transmission array...". Wiping away the sweat on his forehead, a bad premonition suddenly rose up in Wu You's heart.

  "Oh? Then I'd like to know, whose mistake was it?" The originally calm voice changed, and anyone could hear the anger in the man's tone.

  "King... King above, is is is careless..." At this time, Wu You was on the verge of tears. Careless ah careless, you can't blame me for this! Who let you be so careless all the time, and now such a mistake has occurred? The demon realm and human realm are like well water and river water that don't mix, now things have gone big, you're on your own!

  "Hmph! Wait until I return and then settle the score with him!" Each interface has its own rules, and for thousands of years, they have not interfered with each other. After all, the gap between each interface is too great, and once confused, it will absolutely cause huge harm, or even the collapse of an interface. At that time, his demon world will definitely become the target of public criticism. Now, his demon world actually has demons coming to the human world privately, and that foolish guy is always causing trouble for him. This time, he must not be let off lightly!

  After listening to this, Ling Xiao was also thinking in his heart, could it be because of her Yu'er? In any case, these demons cannot continue to wreak havoc, and when the time comes, it will be the moment of human extinction!

  "Mo Jiu You, let's hurry up and get there! The sooner we solve this, the better. I'll feel more at ease." She patted the large hand on her waist and looked up at him with a slight smile. However, she still wanted to take a look at what the demon looked like - was it hideous with sharp teeth and a gruesome face?

  "Alright, we'll go tomorrow. Why don't you get a good rest today?" Anyway, it's been so long already, one more night doesn't make a difference. The young lady from his household is more important after all.

  "But it's still afternoon, I couldn't sleep..." She was picked up and held like a baby, her heart feeling very embarrassed, this is so humiliating!

  "Okay, sleep first, and I'll wake you up for dinner later. You're very sleepy now, and your eyes are tired too..." Mo Jiao Yu looked at the person lying in his arms, gently patting her back, his voice slowly becoming softer until her breathing stabilized before putting her on the couch. He covered her with a blanket, then kissed her forehead, only then did he stand up, seriously looking at the other three people.

  "You two go find the exact location of the demons right now, investigate their numbers, and then drive them all together. Go now!" Looking at Wu You and Feng Jiang Mou, Mo Jiu Yu ordered in a low voice, this was the demon king who never showed his emotions, also the eternal overlord of the demon world!

  "Yes, Your Majesty!"

  "I will obey your orders!"

  They also knew the severity of the matter. If they could be controlled, it would be best to send them back to the demon world. If not, then there was no choice but to kill them on the spot.

  "As for you, get ready, once this matter is over, return to the Demon Realm immediately, I will have them prepare the grand ceremony of enthronement."

  "But what about Mother?" Although he knew this was inevitable, he couldn't bear to part with his mother.

  "Wherever she wants to go, I'll accompany her. But if you're still staying in the mortal realm, then your cultivation for this life will be like this too. I think you don't want to live such a humble life either!" These words directly struck at Xuan Xi's weakness. There was no longer any Yuemo Stone here, and his previous forced completion of the Holy Demon Spirit had been an act of adventure. The mortal realm could no longer satisfy the energy needs of his body, after all, it was still too low a plane.

  "Will you take good care of her?" He couldn't bear to part with his mother, and this separation was for an unknown length of time!

  "Of course, as his own person, he would naturally be the happiest in this world!" He now can't wait to spoil her to heaven.

  "Do you know about her past? Do you understand her history? You saw that empty grave today, there's nothing inside, but Mother said it was her lifesaver. We all knew about the ashes, but for so long, I had no idea Mother had a benefactor named Nangong Qingkuang. And this Nangong Qingkuang was abandoned, yet Mother said she was dead. Do you know what's going on? If he could have ignored Nangong Qingkuang before, but everything that happened in the Nangong family, he couldn't forget. What kind of connection did Nangong Qingkuang really have with Mother?"

  "Me..." Mo Jiu You was left speechless by the question, indeed he wasn't clear about everything that had happened to Ya Tou before, and even more so didn't know where her sorrow came from today.

  "Mother said that Nangong Qingkuang is dead, but there's clearly nothing there. Mother had even gone to the Nangong residence to demand justice back then, and she was so angry and sad at the time - it was the first time I saw her like that. If you really care about mother, you should understand her joys and sorrows, rather than just doing things your own way."

  Mo Jiu's body trembled, he had never understood Yatou's past, except for knowing her name was Zhan Qingkuang, he knew nothing else. The more he thought about it, the more his heart felt sour... But it didn't matter, what he didn't know before, now wasn't too late to find out. With a wave of his hand, scene after scene appeared before his eyes, however, with the changing scenes, the anger in his heart never dissipated, he was so angry that he wanted to destroy the entire world for his family's Yatou.

  This was also the first time Xuan Xi saw Qing Kuang's past, no, to be precise, it was "Nan Gong Qing Kuang"'s past. From birth to being abandoned, and then enduring hunger and thirst, being poisoned and beaten, a small child who didn't know how to protect herself, when hurt, could only wail and cry loudly, afterwards the small child slowly grew up, however accompanied by beatings, the gradually growing child also began to take on the appearance of a beautiful woman, so those humans set their sights on her...

  Looking at that identical face, Xuan Xi suddenly understood in her heart. Her mother was indeed the "Nan Gong Qing Kuang". That's why she was so angry and loudly accused him when they were at the Nan Gong residence before.

  And Mo Jiu You, who was standing by, saw this and if he still had a thread of rationality left, knowing that this was Ya Tou's place, he would have smashed everything, unforgivable! Unforgivable! So his family's Ya Tou had suffered so much? Those humans were truly detestable! Detestable!

  The scene changed again, and Nan Gong Qingcang was deceived and surrounded by several men who bullied her, fed her medicine, and watched as she cried out loudly for mercy. She struggled desperately until she fell to the ground in the forest of Xiangcheng. From then on, Mo Jiu You knew everything. That was where they first met, his little girl, his little girl...

  He walked to the bedside, Mo Jiu looked at the sleeping beauty with a mixture of sadness and pity. He had never felt that thirteen years was so long for humans. But looking at his maid's suffering for thirteen years, his heart uncontrollably ached with pain. Why hadn't he met her earlier? If they had met earlier, he wouldn't be hating himself like this now! Was it just to bid farewell to the past thirteen years that she had set up a grave in front of her clothes?

  Seeing Mo Jiu like this, Xuan Xi's heart was also uncomfortable. He had thought that his mother had suffered enough before, but today he discovered that it was just the tip of the iceberg. If he had some doubts before, now he was even more determined. He would return to the Demon Realm! Only when he became stronger could he truly protect his mother and let her be carefree and without worries.

  "I've said it before, Mother has suffered a lot. If one day you no longer care about her, I'll kill you!" No matter how much this person now hates, he only cares that Mother doesn't get hurt.

  "Get out!" Of course, he didn't need to say more. That day would never come! He wouldn't let go of her hand no matter what she said.

  Xuan Xi looked at him for two seconds, then glanced at Qing Kuang for a moment before turning around and leaving.

  When they were the only ones left in the house, Mo Jiu also flipped onto the bed and held him tightly in his arms. This was his Gege! Originally, he should have been the one he pampered and placed on the tip of his heart, but he had been hurt by those despicable humans time and time again. Of course, there was also him, who had also done things to hurt Gege before. The more he thought about it, the more he hated himself compared to those humans!

  Embracing the lightly sleeping Qian Kuang, Mo Jiu You had been trapped in self-blame all along, until the lanterns were first lit, and still hadn't changed his posture.

  "Hmm..." Slept for an entire afternoon, slowly and gently waking up, still feeling dazed, only to be kissed by someone.

  Mo Jiu Yu had been watching Qing Kuang, his peaceful sleeping face, plump red lips, such a small person, how did he manage to hold on until now! When an unusual sensation came from his arm, his strong arms directly picked him up and kissed him urgently.

  A kiss ended, her eyes were moist and puzzled, looking at the man, what's wrong with him?

  "Girl, do you know how much I like you, so fond of you... In the future, I will double my affection for you, spoil you, as long as you are happy every day and live freely..." Mo Jiu whispered softly against her forehead.

  "Mo Jiu You, what's wrong with you?" How did she become strange after waking up from her sleep? Wait, how did she fall asleep in the first place?

  "My maid, I don't even know what to do with you anymore..." Humans are not only fragile but also complex, they have too many emotions, too many joys and sorrows. He really doesn't know what to do, so he can only be more careful, because he doesn't know when he might hurt his maid again.

  "Mo Jiu You, aren't you happy?" Lying on the man's chest, her mind was full of questions. Wasn't everything fine before? Had he been stimulated or something? But who would have the guts to stimulate him?!

  The knocking at the door interrupted the two people's daze, it turned out that Xuan Xi had been worried that Qing Kuang would wake up hungry, so he had ordered someone to prepare food early.

  "You can do whatever you want from now on, nothing is impossible!" Mo Jiu Yu stood up and helped Qing Kuang adjust his slightly tilted clothes, saying with a smile.

  Sneaking a glance at Mo Jiu You, her mind was filled with growing doubts. "Mo Jiu You, are you ill?"

  "We'll eat first now, all your favorite dishes." Mo Jiu Yao hid his thoughts and feelings, he would be better to Ya Tou later.

  "Then can I have some more?"

  "Okay!"

  "Can I have two more pastries?"

  "Good!"

  "There's still eight-treasure fish..."

  "It's all right!"

  Why so readily agreed? Suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and when he looked up again, it was still that doting smile...

  Mo Jiu was feeding her mouthful by mouthful, and she was eating with a "frightened heart". This person was a bit too gentle, wasn't he? She suddenly had the feeling of ants crawling on her body, how strange was this?

  Until she ate her fill and let out a comfortable sigh, Mo Jiu Yu only then withdrew his hand, gently massaging her belly. "Girl, do you have any wishes?"

  Reclining in the man's arms, gently closing her eyes, thinking about his words, did she really have a heart's desire? She really did!

  "Mojie You, my Yao'er has turned into a seed, do you have a solution?" Jing Lian's bright eyes looked at Mojie You, this was also one of her worries. After all, Yao'er had become like this because of her. Now no matter how she spoke, Yao'er didn't respond.

  Looking at the seeds in Qingkuang's hand, Mo Jiu immediately understood what was going on.

  "I'll cure it and then return it to you." The two seeds were picked up, and Mo Jiu Yu agreed very readily. However, sending someone on a trip to the Tianwai Tianjing was an easy task!

  "Really?" Xī ěr had said it was very difficult to do at first! Didn't expect there really is a way, great, Yāo ěr can recover, for her it's already the best result.

  "Of course, when have I ever deceived you? What other wishes do you have, just say them out and I'll make them all come true." He stroked her lightly flushed small face, wanting to make up for what she had lacked before.

  Is there anything else you'd like? Lightly arrogant and serious for a moment, "Take me to see the demons! I've never seen them before!"

  "Alright, I'll go tomorrow!" This request was even simpler, but what's good about those low-level ugly demons? However, this was Ya Tou's heart's desire, and he would definitely agree. If Ya Tou followed him back to the Demon Realm, she could see them every day.

  "Is everything okay? Mo Jiu You, you wouldn't be hiding something from me, would you? Have you taken a liking to another woman?" No news is good news, either a thief or a liar!

  Upon hearing this, Mo Jiu Yu couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. She playfully slapped her little butt as a form of punishment, still speaking in a gentle tone, "Is there anything else you wish for?"

  "Then can you teach me how to capture souls?" If she could learn that, then refining divine-level artifacts wouldn't be a problem in the future.

  How did you learn to capture souls? However, this is not a difficult task, he can teach you.

  "Is there anything else?" He now wants to bring all the good things from various circles in front of his daughter, just to make her smile.

  "Uh-huh, that's all for now." She wrapped her arms around the man's neck and gazed carefully into his eyes, "Mo Jiu You, why are you so good to me?"

  "What nonsense are you talking about! Can't you be good to me?" The soft and fluffy little girl looked at him with a smile full of mischief in her eyes.

  "Not...either..." She puckered up her mouth, and even her usual carefree attitude couldn't be expressed, she just felt that there was something different about this person today.

  "Don't think about anything, I've got everything!" Combing his lightly curly hair, the man let out a satisfied sigh. This person was his, who else would he spoil?

  Her heart skipped a beat as she sat up suddenly, took the initiative to kiss him, and pulled his big hand towards her waistband, the implication was self-evident.

  "How rude!" Mo Jiu Yu picked him up, his clothes slowly falling off, the night was still long...

  Mo Jiu Yu naturally wouldn't go back on his word. The next day, early in the morning, he pulled out the sleepy and warm little girl, putting her clothes on one by one, and couldn't help but want to laugh at her dazed expression.

  "Girl, wake up, didn't you say you wanted to go see the demon?" The boneless-like person softened into a puddle, and as soon as he loosened his grip, she fell onto his chest, refusing to open her eyes no matter what.

  "Ugh..." He muttered to himself, feeling a dull ache all over his body. This guy was indeed someone you couldn't afford to be too careless with, or else you'd be asking for trouble!

  She picked up a handkerchief and wiped Qing Kuang's face clean. The cool sensation finally brought Qing Kuang back to his senses.

  "Let's go, after we finish eating, we'll set off." Mo Jiu Yu was very pleased as he hugged Qing Kuang tightly, the little girl really looked more and more beautiful!

  After finishing breakfast, Qing Kuang found Lou Yinglan and instructed her on everything before setting off.

  Before they reached the Void Ghost Realm, they received news that a large number of demons had appeared in the Rocky Desert. Time had passed for so long, and it was unknown what had happened to them. Along the way, Qingkuang had already prepared herself mentally, but when she saw it with her own eyes, she was still shocked.

  The rocky desert had long since lost the shadow of the demon, and when they arrived at the nearest village, they found that it was all ruins, with houses that could no longer be seen in their original shape. The surrounding area was desolate, with large areas of trees almost completely destroyed, and there were teeth marks on top. The ground was barren and lifeless, and in some places, you could still see clear footprints. These demons wouldn't eat everything, would they? Just then, a distant roar echoed through the air, and Qingkuang also looked in the direction of the sound.

  Due to Majo Yu's orders, Mu and Hou will take turns controlling the nocturnal spread of magical creatures, but it's clear that Mu is much stronger than him, so he naturally has fewer magical creatures to manage.

  Looking at the person walking slowly from afar, Feng Jiangmu made a respectful bow. "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Master! The demons here have all been subdued. The Great Elder is now roaming around various cities, carrying out arrests."

  Qingkuang listened to Feng Jiangmu's words, but her eyes were fixed on the surrounding demonic beasts that were growling and snarling. However, perhaps due to Mo Jiu's arrival, the imprisoned demons were all shivering with fear, cowering on the ground, and letting out low wails. Only after a thorough examination did Qingkuang discover that the legendary demons were somewhat different from what she had imagined. Not only were they enormous in size, but despite having human-like bodies, they had the heads of wild beasts - some were eagles, some were wolves, and there were many others that she couldn't even recognize. However, these demons were indeed robust and muscular, with explosive strength, and those who were injured revealed their muscle tissue, but their blood was blue or green in color. She had always thought that the blood of demons should be black!

  "Majyu Yu, why isn't their blood black?" She leaned against the man, asking with a hint of curiosity.

  "Because they are just demons, only the blood of the demon clan is black." Even if Mo Jiu Yu carefully explained and dispelled doubts, the disdain in his tone was not concealed at all.

  But as soon as they heard Mo Jiu You's voice, those trapped demons trembled even more violently, and their "Wu Wu Wu" sounds didn't seem to make any sense. Although Qing Kuang knew Mo Wen, she couldn't understand the demonic language, so this sound was no different from a beast's howl to her.

  "Mojie You, you say I go and fight with them, who will win or lose in the end?" As soon as this idea came up, his eyes lit up with excitement, looking at Mojie You expectantly.

  "Don't mess around. These demons are just superficially docile for now, but once they're demonized, you'll definitely be unable to handle them." Any dangerous activities must be strangled in the cradle.

  "I'm not messing around, just let me try! Besides, aren't you here with me? Can't you protect me? Let me go, I'll just give it a shot!" She felt like she was all rusty from not moving for so many days.

  Looking at the expectant eyes of his family's little girl, Mo Jiu couldn't bear to say no! If something really happened, he could completely take action to protect her. The little girl was stubborn, so it would be better if he agreed.

  "Be careful, do you know? Don't look at these demons being gentle now, if they demonize, even a cub can take your life, do you know?" Rubbing the light and arrogant little face, Mo Jiu You still didn't feel at ease, saying it over and over again.

  "Alright alright, I won't be stubborn." How come this person is still nagging, didn't notice it before!

  "Come on, Mom!" These low-level demons shouldn't be able to hurt Mom, right? He knew Mom's personality, once she made up her mind about something, she would do it no matter what, and there was no use trying to persuade her. Anyway, with that man around, Mom would definitely be fine.

  Feng Jiangmou, who had been waiting on the side, heard this and deliberately selected a relatively weak young beast from the enclosure that held them. It was over a meter tall, trembling with fear, its entire body covered in yellow fur, with an eagle-like head, sharp beak, round brown eyes, carefully looking at Qingkuang before lowering its head. What surprised Qingkuang the most was that this demon's feet were also like eagle claws, sharp and hooked, appearing exceptionally sharp.

  "Be careful, this demon will fly when it's enchanted." Although Mo Jiu Yu had confidence in her heart, she couldn't help but worry.

  Qing Kuang nodded slightly and took a few steps forward, thinking that the demon would make the first move. However, after waiting for half a day, it didn't take the initiative to attack. Was it intimidated? Qing Kuang had actually guessed correctly on this point. Not to mention Mo Jiu You, Xuan Xi, Feng Jiang Mou Xun were all watching from there, this demon didn't dare to make any rash moves. Moreover, recently Mo Jiu You had been extremely fond of Qing Kuang, and her entire body was filled with the aura of the Demon King, even if it had a hundred times more courage, it absolutely wouldn't dare to take the initiative to attack!

  But it seems that Lian Kuang doesn't plan to give her time either, she still has a lot of things to do, after dealing with the demon's affairs, she also needs to learn how to absorb souls.

  "Phoenix Slash!" It had been a while since it appeared, and the Fire Phoenix was also very excited. After circling around, its sharp attack charged towards that magical creature. With its life threatened, the Eagle-faced Demon was startled, dodging nimbly before giving Lie Jian a malicious stare.

  Not hitting the target, Huang Feng also unwilling, rushed to the clouds, a dive again attacked. At the same time, Qing Kuang did not idle, earth-based spiritual power used freely, a mud dragon followed by a loud whistle, heavily hit on the monster's body. Suddenly, the aura of that small monster changed, eyes became a line, the hair that was obedient just now all exploded, the muscles all over the body were tense, apparently being provoked into anger.

  "Be careful, Ah Tou!" Mo Jiu Yu hastily reminded her, noticing that something was off.

  Watching the demon change little by little, Qingkuang didn't dare to be careless. She wanted to find a demon to fight today, not just for no reason. From the men and Xuanyi's words, it wasn't hard to hear their contempt for these creatures. Thinking of Mo Jiu's proposal, Qingkuang had considered going to the Demon Realm before, but if she couldn't even defeat the lowest-level demons in the Demon Realm, wouldn't she just die a miserable death? Even if someone would protect her, her pride wouldn't allow her to live so humbly, so that's why she wanted to try today.

  The wind suddenly rose, and the demon that had just been ambushed by her underwent a sudden transformation. It turned out that this guy didn't just look like an eagle, but actually had wings on its back! However, these wings were black, with a cluster of dark gas above and a deeper-colored skeleton in the middle. With the appearance of the wings, the demon, which was only over a meter tall just before, suddenly grew taller, apparently having undergone demonic transformation.

  Seeing this, those imprisoned demons also let out a mournful cry, each with an excited expression.

  Now, Qing Kuang couldn't afford to be careless anymore. She gripped the dagger tightly in her hand and stared intently at the demon that was much taller than her. Even a young beast could have such power, could she really do it?

  A tiny human dares to hurt it! How dare they hurt it! What demonic aura, what fear, none of that matters anymore, as long as they can tear this human apart right now, their heart will feel relieved!

  The monster-like demon charged towards Qingkuang, its sharp claws gleaming with white light. If it really caught him, he would lose a few pieces of flesh. The seemingly large and clumsy demon moved at an alarming speed, appearing in front of Qingkuang in the blink of an eye. It spat out black mist from its mouth, causing the small grass to wither instantly wherever it passed, revealing its extremely corrosive nature.

  "Girl!" A loud shout, Mo Jiu Yu didn't care about anything else, as long as his girl couldn't get into trouble, and couldn't be hurt in the slightest. The black flames in his hand seemed to have a life of their own, directly burning that furious demon into ashes. For a moment, the demons that were screaming earlier were all scared stiff, not daring to move again.

  The originally well-prepared and confident girl was about to withstand this blow, but was stopped halfway, and her frustration at this moment can be imagined.

  "Girl, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere?" In an instant, Mo Jiu appeared in front of Qing Kuang and carefully examined her. Seeing that she was fine except for her disheveled clothes, he finally felt at ease.

  "You stopped too early!" She was still confident at first, but now it's all over, a competition ended in a miscarriage.

  "But I couldn't just watch you get hurt, not even if it's a potential danger!" He held the little girl tightly in his arms, and from now on, he would take care of everything for her. As for these demons, with a flash of red light in their eyes, Mo Jiu said in a low, stern voice: "You, go find Wu You! These demons have escaped from the Demon Realm, throw them all into the first level of Purgatory!"

  "Yes, Your Majesty!" Feng Jiang Mou hurriedly took orders, Refining Hell! That's the nightmare of all demon clans!

  "Come on! Haven't you seen monsters before? Let's get out of here first, we'll have plenty of chances later!" Mo Jiu Yu hastily comforted Ling Xiao, but what he was thinking in his heart was a different matter altogether.

  "Mojie You, in your demon world, aren't demons the weakest existence?"

  "Yes, indeed it is. So, you don't have to worry about these ugly things." These are just young beasts, the real adult demons are much stronger than these small ones now, and their appearance is even more hideous.

  On the way back, he was unusually silent, trying to coax her into a good mood with various methods.

  "Mother..." Xuan Xi didn't want to see Qing Kuang unhappy either, he knew Mother's desire to become stronger, but this wasn't something that could be rushed, after all the innate talents of the demon and human races were already laid out there!

  "Mom's fine, does Xi'er want anything? Mom will buy it for you." She put away her sorrow and gently pinched Xi'er's face with a faint smile.

  "I want to eat the dishes made by my mother!" He is about to leave soon, and he doesn't know when he can eat his mother's cooking again. Although food is not a must, what he misses more is that atmosphere.

  "Alright, Xi'er wants to eat, Mom will make it for you!" How could she refuse such a small request?

  She led Mo Jiu back with a gentle smile, and her mood also slowly improved. However, she didn't expect that due to the demon, there would be further developments.

  Walking on the desolate street, everyone's panicked look made her very puzzled.

  It wasn't until she returned to the Crazy Slaughter Pavilion that she understood what was going on. It turned out that due to the harassment of those demons, many demon beasts in the mortal realm were also being disturbed. Although everyone was curious about how those demons had disappeared, a more severe problem was that wave after wave of beast tides were coming to attack. The crazy demon beasts were rampaging everywhere, and many civilians had already been injured.

  "Is the power of Kuangsha Pavilion damaged?" Others are not mentioned, she only cares about her own things.

  "Yes, but it can be ignored. However, the main problem now is that the royal families of various countries are putting pressure on Kuangsha Hall, hoping we will send someone to assist." Noticing Le Qing's sudden change in expression, Lou Xuanlan also dared not say more. Those greedy and timid people who only knew how to enjoy life without doing anything were always eyeing Kuangsha Hall! After all, let alone the elixirs, just talking about the talented individuals, Kuangsha Hall had an astonishing number of them. And recently, after being properly handled, their power was preserved intact. It could be said that even if they were to build another empire, Kuangsha Hall would be completely capable of doing so. So this "delicacy" in everyone's eyes, who wouldn't want to swallow it whole?

  "Hmph, they think it's beautiful, why should we waste our energy doing such things?"

  "They say, 'The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every individual!' When he said this, Lou Yinglan couldn't help but burst out laughing."

  "Who's kingdom is this? If it were my kingdom, I would naturally guard the borders and protect the people without hesitation. But now, this kingdom belongs to someone else, what does it have to do with me? Don't think I don't know what they're planning, wanting to preserve their own power, using my Kuangsha Pavilion as a pawn, dreaming! Each and every one of them owes a lesson, no one is allowed to touch her things!"

  "Want me to help you? Or does your family's little girl want to be the emperor?" Looking at the furious Qing Kuang, Mo Jiu You couldn't bear to watch anymore. Destroying the entire mortal realm would only take a flick of his wrist.

  "No need, some people have poor memory, so I'll just wake them up myself. Only my hands don't know the difference between heavy and light, and I'm not sure if they can take it." He lazily leaned against Mo Jiu You's body, casually blowing on his fingernails, with a cold glint in his eyes.

  "Master, what do you plan to do?" Having seen the way the two interacted, Lou Yilun was no longer surprised. Looking at the young master and this person's similar eyebrows and eyes, as well as their similarly imposing demeanor, it was natural to know their relationship. However, he had always been mindful of what to ask and what not to ask.

  "A versatile spiritual cultivator, plus a beast tamer, alchemist, and artifact refiner. With such an owner, I wonder who dares to touch my Crazy Slaughter Pavilion!" Lightly Crazed shouted loudly, and then fire, wood, water, earth, and dark elemental powers flashed through his palm one after another, scaring Lou Xuanlan quite a bit. Master, did you eat some kind of spiritual elixir? This talent is too frightening! Originally being dual-element was already astonishing, but now it's even multi-element! No, no, there's also beast taming and artifact refining, if word gets out, won't it cause a huge commotion!"

  No matter how startled Lou Xinglan was, Mo Jiu You also looked surprised for a moment, but he quickly calmed down. Hmm, no wonder she's the maid of his household, this talent is not bad!

  Lou Xinlan took a long time to suppress the shock in her heart, and asked with an unsettled mind, "Master's meaning is, this time we will make an appearance?"

  "Of course, they want to make Crazy Massacre Pavilion the hero? Then I, the master of Crazy Massacre Pavilion, will be the same! Just wait and see, she'll blind those people's dog eyes!"

  "Master, about the power of the Kuangsha Pavilion..."

  "Hold your fire!"

  "Yes!" For small matters, he can take charge, but for such a big matter, it still needs someone with the presence of mind like Master to handle. Fortunately, fortunately Master returned at this critical moment.

  After Lou Xinglan left, the room fell into a brief silence. Mo Jiu and Xuan Xi exchanged a glance, unsure of how to break the silence for a moment. In the end, it was Mo Jiu who decided to be the bad guy.

  "Girl, there's something I want to tell you." Buried in the nape of her neck, Mo Jiu Yu hesitated again and again, carefully holding back his words.

  "What's wrong?" This hesitant tone is unlike his usual personality!

  "I guarantee you'll listen to the end, don't rush... actually it's just... our child, the child might be sent back to the Demon Realm..." Mo Jiu Yu still awkwardly changed his way of addressing Xuan Xi in order to calm down Qing Kuang.

  He jumped up with a loud "ting", his face twisted in an unbelievable scowl, "What did you say?"

  "Calm down, calm down... Look at you, I'm just afraid you'll be in a hurry..." A large hand gently patted the back of the lightly crazed Mo Jiu, who didn't dare say another word.

  "Mother..." Xuan Xi also looked at Qing Kuang with concern, he knew his mother couldn't bear to part with him, how could he bear to part with her?

  "Xiao'er...... Xiao'er......" Looking at her precious son, she felt a lump in her throat. She had known this day would come, so every day was a gift, but she hadn't expected the day of separation to arrive so soon! She didn't know how others felt when they were apart from their loved ones, all she knew was that her heart ached and she couldn't express the pain.

  "Mother, don't worry, I won't leave, I won't leave, Xī'ěr will stay by your side..." Xuán Xī hastily ran to Qīng Kuáng's side, his small hands continuously wiping away Qīng Kuáng's tears.

  "Girl, you can't stay! First the demonic creatures, then the beast tide, many of the spiritual energies in the human world have been destroyed, which is very detrimental to his body and cultivation. You don't want to see him stagnate, do you? How will he inherit my position as the Demon King in the future?" Glaring at Xuan Xi, Mo Jiao's heart was dissatisfied, but looking at the little girl's despairing appearance, how could she still care about so much?

  "I knew, I've always known... but I just can't bear to..." The son she had carried in her womb for ten months and raised with her every day, how could she just separate from him now? Anyone would find it unbearable!

  "Then would you like to return to the Demon Realm with us?" Mo Jiu Yu proposed once again, looking at her small, wet face.

  Return to the Demon Realm? She didn't want to be separated from her son, but she had tried before and what qualifications did she have now to go to the Demon Realm? Not to mention whether her life would be spared or not, as a non-demon, her heart would surely be cut out. Humans already detested demons so much, how could demons possibly treat her with kindness? She wasn't stupid, from the words and actions of these few demons around her, she could hear their contempt for humans. Even if it was because of Mo Yu's face, they wouldn't do anything to her, but what if something unexpected happened after a long time? She wasn't some great holy mother who could use a loving heart to reform the entire demon tribe, just thinking about it made her feel like it was a fantasy. So she didn't dare go and couldn't go! Actually, she had another consideration, although this person said they would protect her, but every day bringing a human by their side, how would those demons view their king? She didn't want the person who had been so good to her to be in a difficult situation.

  "Mo Jiu You, I won't go..." A hundred emotions surged up in his heart, how could he be calm now?

  "Mother, I won't leave, I won't leave, I'll stay with you..." He couldn't bear to see his mother sad, nothing was more important than his mother.

  "Xiao'er, Xiao'er..." She couldn't bear it, really couldn't bear it! If they were to part ways, when would they ever meet again?!

  Looking at the mother and son immersed in sorrow, Mo Jiu Yu suddenly felt that he was a despicable villain. The little girl cried miserably, and on the other hand, there was still the problem of Mo Zi that had not been resolved. Wasn't there a way to have both sides intact? Or was it destined that one side would have to make sacrifices...

  Digression

  Friends, a new round of prize-guessing, guess whether Xuan Xi has left or not, and if he has returned to the Demon Realm? Hehe, there are rewards!
