Chapter 629 A Secret Trip to the Ten Thousand Demons Sect?

Xiao Tang fell silent upon hearing the system's words.

It was rare for the dog system to say something useful, and it was also rare for her to find it reasonable.

Xiao Tang pondered, recalling the original plot of the book.

It seems...

She needs to find an excuse to sneak off to the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

The problem is, her husband definitely won't agree.

That night.

Tonight, the emperor surprisingly left his study early and returned to his bedchamber early.

Xiao Tang was lying there contemplating life when, unexpectedly, the man suddenly returned.

As he slipped under the covers, a gust of cold air blew in, making her instinctively shrink back.

Di Jingling, enveloped in the chill of the night, pulled her into his arms the moment he slipped into bed.

Xiao Tang let out a soft "Eek" as she felt the chill from his slightly cold embrace.

Di Jingling, on the other hand, actually chuckled softly.

Xiao Tang finally couldn't hold back and suddenly opened her eyes to glare at him.

What's so funny?

Does he know that he's made her cold?

Xiao Tang accused him with her eyes, her eyes filled with dissatisfaction.

"You're not asleep?" The lights weren't off, and he lowered his eyes to meet hers, asking softly.

In the already quiet night, his voice was gentle as water, and contained a touch of tenderness.

Xiao Tang was quite frank: "It was you who woke me up. I was sleeping perfectly fine."

Despite her complaints, after they embraced, their body heat transferred to each other, and his embrace quickly became incredibly warm, so she simply buried herself even deeper into his arms.

"I'm sorry, I just..." wanted to hug you.

Xiao Tang snuggled against him like a lazy cat.

As she nuzzled against him, the man's embrace became quite warm.

Xiao Tang tentatively asked, "Darling, I want to go to the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, is that alright?"

Obviously, the answer was: "No."

He did not hesitate, nor did he show any emotion.

This answer was exactly what Xiao Tang had expected. She was a little sad, lowered her eyes slightly, and said in a very soft voice, "Oh, okay."

Since they refuse, then so be it.

Di Jingling also thought that she had figured it out and would no longer dwell on this issue.

Unexpectedly, the woman in his arms suddenly looked up, her eyes gazing at him expectantly.

"You really won't agree to my request?"

"..."

He pursed his thin lips and silently met her gaze.

His eyes were already telling her that he would never agree.

Xiao Tang immediately deflated.

...

The Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

At night, once darkness falls, the entire mountaintop is shrouded in dark clouds.

After infiltrating the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, Di Youming obtained masks from some of the sect's lower-ranking disciples and was even assigned to night duty and patrols.

The eleven-year-old child wandered aimlessly on this pitch-black mountain, without showing any fear.

He felt he was very brave.

It's still a place like this, and he's really going all out to see his biological father.

only……

He had been trying to find out, both openly and secretly, whether he had ever heard of this Prince Xiao, but he always shook his head.

That's strange.

It seems like nobody knows who Xiao Wang is?

He felt a vague unease in his heart, but didn't know what to do.

Completely lost and bewildered.

He found a quiet spot to sit on a rock and looked around in confusion.

In the darkness, a small hand patted his shoulder.

Di Youming was a wary child. Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder, and he sprang up like a spring, giving the other person a backhand grab.

"Ouch, ouch, you're hurting me!" The little girl cried out in pain as he pinned her hands behind her back.

I never expected it to be a six-year-old girl.

but……

This little girl is strange; she has a large purple birthmark on her face.

However, her eyes were exceptionally bright, as if they were filled with stars.

Di Youming immediately released the child. "Who are you?"

"Brother, are you new here? Don't you recognize me?"

Emperor Youming snorted coldly.

Pretending to be aloof.

He's obviously new here, so why would he need to get to know her?

A little brat.

At that moment, he forgot that he was also just a little kid.

The little girl tilted her head. "Oh, you're new here. What's your name? I'm the little princess of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect. My name is Bai Doudou."

Forehead……

Emperor Youming thought to himself, "This child's name was chosen so casually."

Since she's the little princess of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, she shouldn't be so lacking in prestige, marrying such a...

"I am... Xiao Ming, I just arrived here."

"Oh, I see. So why are you wearing a mask? Can I see what you look like?"

As she said this, she subconsciously touched the birthmark on her face.

She's too ugly.

She knew it very well.

Emperor Youming pursed his lips, speechless.

She was just a little girl, after all, so he didn't take her seriously. But he still said seriously, "If you want to see my face, you can answer one question for me, and then I'll show it to you."

Bai Doudou nodded decisively.

She tilted her head back, her face full of anticipation, "Ask away! If I know the answer, I'll definitely tell you!"

"Your parents are the sect leaders of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect?"

"Yes, but I don't have a mother, I only have a father."

Di Youming murmured, "What a coincidence, I have no mother, only a father."

The little girl didn't understand the deeper meaning behind his whispered words, but she jumped up and down happily and hugged his arm as if they were old friends.

"Great! That's wonderful! Can you be my older brother then?"

Di Youming's lips twitched.
