As soon as Yun Qi entered the snake cave, the snakes narrowed their eyes as if they had seen an enemy.

Several snakes pounced on him and bit his body.

Yun Qi knelt on the ground in pain. He felt very tired when the poison took effect and he was about to give up.

Why?

Yun Qi was captured by the Taoist priest because the priest hired an elderly woman to deceive him.

The old woman lied to him, saying she had broken her leg. Yun Qi felt pity for her and carried her back to the home the old woman had mentioned.

Instead of the old woman's gratitude, she was met with a trap.

The Taoist's ferocious appearance kept appearing in his mind.

Yun Qi didn't understand why.

When I do good deeds, don't my master and fellow disciples always say that doing good deeds will definitely bring good fortune?

As expected, what Master and my fellow disciples said was all a lie.

Otherwise, how could they have died?

The snake venom in his body kept flaring up, and the snakes were circling around this human.

They were just waiting for the boy to stop breathing.

Then they ate the boy's flesh piece by piece.

Yun Qi's lips turned bluish-black at this moment.

Even on the brink of life and death, he was still somewhat worried, as his mother was still in the hands of that bad man.

no.

He had to hold on; he had to rescue his mother.

Yun Qi's true form is a white dragon, and dragons and snakes naturally suppress each other.

He suddenly tore a snake off his body in two, and chewed the raw flesh and blood directly into his mouth, bite by bite.

Li Muge didn't find the scene particularly terrifying.

I just feel a little sorry for Yun Qi.

Snakes are inherently afraid of the strong, and seeing Yun Qi's exceptionally brutal methods, they dared not approach him.

Li Muge stayed beside the young Yun Qi, feeling slightly sleepy, and fell asleep.

When she woke up.

They discovered that their environment had changed again.

Xiao Xue somehow regained her memories and personally killed the Taoist priest to avenge herself.

This should have been a happy occasion for everyone.

However, Xiao Xue's daughter's health deteriorated further due to poisoning.

Watching his youngest daughter's life force slowly slip away.

Xiao Xue feigned gentleness and tricked Yun Qi into drinking a sleeping potion.

At that time.

Yun Qi was still conscious when he watched as his mother cut open his chest and ripped out his heart.

"Mother," Yun Qi called out pitifully.

Now that Xiao Xue has regained her memories, she feels nothing but disgust. This son killed her husband who loved her so much; it was all Yun Qi's fault.

If it weren't for the reappearance of this wicked child, her beautiful and ordinary life would never have been disrupted.

"Shut up! I don't have a son like you. If I had known that a bastard like you would ruin me like this, I would have preferred to let your damned father kill you with his own hands."

"You bastard, you ruined my life, you devil! I, Xiao Xue, have no son like you!"

Xiao Xue rushed to get Yun Qi's heart to save her daughter.

Yun Qi clutched Xiao Xue's skirt tightly, a large hole torn in his chest: "Mother, don't leave me."

"Qi'er will be very good and won't make you angry. Don't abandon Qi'er."

Xiao Xue clutched her son's bloodied heart in her hand, a wave of reluctance washing over her.

But then I thought of my daughter.

Having endured so much humiliation during this time, she found Yun Qi an eyesore and wished he were dead.

Only then can her life return to peace.

"Let go." Xiao Xue resolutely slashed open the hem of her skirt that Yun Qi was holding with a dagger.

Without even glancing back at Yun Qi, she clutched his heart and ran away quickly.

"Mother, don't go." Yun Qi lay alone in the wilderness, the smell of blood on his chest attracting a pack of wolves.

They surrounded Yun Qi.

The wolves were eyeing each other menacingly, and even began to threaten one another.

To decide which part of Yun Qi they will tear apart and devour later.

Li Muge suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

Suddenly, she felt unable to move her body and was in a daze.

She saw Yun Qi slowly get up from the ground, and the wound on his chest gradually healed.

His figure slenderened, transforming into the gentle and refined appearance he had as an adult.

"Li Muge, isn't it beautiful? Having seen through everything about my childhood, don't you feel sorry for me?"

“Rejected and murdered by her own mother.” Yun Qi’s eyes were sinister, like a venomous snake coiling around Li Muge.

They were just waiting for Li Muge to reveal her weakness before they would kill her.

"Yes, Demon Lord, I pity you."

Li Muge said frankly.

Yun Qi slightly turned his well-defined hand beneath his sleeve, and a wisp of black energy lingered in his hand.

He deserves to be pitied, but she doesn't.

Li Muge stood there, his thoughts heavy: "But what can the Demon Lord do, even if he's pitiful?"

There are too many pitiful people in this world. Can my pity for you change our current situation?

"Demon Lord, I pity you, but the one thing that can't be changed is that we are still rivals, aren't we?"

"The hardest thing to find in life is a worthy opponent; without one, life would be too boring."

As the killing intent in Yun Qi's eyes gradually faded, Li Muge breathed a sigh of relief.

"Li Muge, you're right, we are rivals. So is that your reason for wanting to save me?"

"Isn't that just too stupid?"

Yun Qi suddenly tried to grab Li Muge by the throat.

The next moment, Li Muge broke free from Yun Qi's control in time, slid down on her toes, and dodged to the side.

"Demon Lord, you've become enraged." Li Muge raised her index finger and lightly tapped Yun Qi's brow.

"How about this, let's cooperate and leave this godforsaken place. I think you don't want to stay in this godforsaken place forever, do you?"

"I didn't want this, but who is to blame for all of this?"

Li Muge felt embarrassed.

Well, she hadn't expected that Guan Yunqi would be involved, and that she would also be imprisoned along with him.

Thinking of this, she cleared her throat: "Demon Lord, you can't say that."

"The best way to solve the problem is to think about it calmly, instead of getting hung up on right and wrong."

Li Muge thought for a moment, then conjured a mirror and carefully observed the cinnabar mark on his forehead.

She said she had this from birth, so why did she use magic to trap Yun Qi's consciousness?

They might lock themselves in too.

Yun Qi naturally didn't want to be locked up with Li Muge, so he looked around.

I simply sat back down.

Li Muge immediately became anxious; she didn't want to stay in this awful place for even a second longer.

"Demon Lord, this is the space of your consciousness, and only you can break through it. Demon Lord, keep going! The people of the Demon Realm are still waiting for you."

"Li Muge, I need to step up my game. Talking isn't enough; you need to take real action."

"Action." Li Muge's pupils shifted, and he pretended to take off his clothes: "Demon Lord, I have no money left. How about I pay off my debt with my body?"

"What, what are you doing?" Yun Qi's expression was somewhat unnatural: "No, Li Muge, I will not let you get away with this."

Li Muge was speechless and choked with emotion.

"Fine, Demon Lord, you don't want to benefit me, but it's as if I'm going to benefit you."

Li Muge, for some unknown reason, decided to stop hiding and approach Yun Qi step by step.
