The little black ball was picked up. Bai Ren's movements were gentle, but he felt extremely painful in his heart. This kind of heartache was somewhat unfamiliar to him.

Seeing this, the leader of Beast Taming Peak came over immediately, handed Bai Ren several kinds of medicine, and said, "Elder Yuanji, these are commonly used medicines for injuries in Beast Taming Peak. This little thing should be useful. We just finished fighting the demons and need to rest. You can use these medicines to help it heal its wounds."

Bai Ren nodded and thanked Yuan Qing for his kindness. They found a place to rest nearby. Bai Ren took the medicine Yuan Qing had given him and took Huo Dou to a smaller, separate cave to heal his wounds.

Chen Tian saw that Bai Ren had important things to do and he couldn't sit idle either, so he went straight to Bai Su and reminded him, "Master, I always feel a little worried.

I heard that the Xuantian Secret Realm hasn't been opened for a long time. How come it suddenly opened, and there are so many demons inside? Isn't that a bit abnormal?"

Bai Su frowned when he heard this, a thought flashed through his mind, and then he immediately activated the magic formula to leave the secret realm.

Sure enough, there was no movement after silently reciting the spell, which meant that the exit of the secret realm had been sealed and all of them were trapped here.

With Bai Su's cultivation level, it wasn't like he had no way out, but so many people had entered the secret realm, disciples from various sects gathered here. Most of them had decent cultivation levels, but not to the point where they couldn't leave on their own.

Thinking about the many actions of the demons before the opening of the Xuantian Secret Realm, which also attracted the attention of major sects, the number of high-level cultivators entering this secret realm was far less than in the past.

Could it be that this is actually a conspiracy of the demon clan, planning to make a feint to the east and attack in the west, trapping some monks in the secret realm, and then wiping them out in batches?

If this is true, perhaps things outside are not peaceful either.

Thinking of this, Bai Su immediately sent a message to all the sects in the secret realm, telling them that the demons had taken action. There was something wrong with this secret realm, and they couldn't leave it for the time being. Therefore, all the major sects needed to join forces to fight against the demons.

Only after seeing that Bai Su understood his intentions and made the most correct decision did Chen Tian feel relieved.

On the other side, in the cave, Bai Ren deliberately rejected Yuan Qing's kindness to stay and help take care of the people, and only he and Huo Dou stayed in the cave.

When they were the only two left here, he returned to his original appearance as the demon lord in this world.

The young man with long silver-gray hair carefully used magic to remove the chains that bound the black beast.

Seeing the hideous wound exposed after the chain was removed, Bai Ren's eyes turned red, his throat seemed to be choked, and he couldn't utter a word.

It's all his fault. He failed to protect his friends!

It was obvious that Huotou entered this small world for him, but he left him trapped in the secret realm and suffered alone.

In the previous world, after so many years of companionship, Bai Ren had long regarded Huo Dou as his most important relative, an existence as important as his father and his father.

The huotou seemed to sense Bai Ren's mood and gently licked the back of his hand with the tip of its tongue. Its large eyes stared at the boy, without a trace of resentment, but only the joy of meeting him again.

Facing such a haughty beast, Bai Ren felt that his heart was about to melt. At the same time, he also strengthened his belief that he must work hard to protect the people important to him, whether it was his father or the haughty beast, and never let them get hurt again.

As soon as this thought came out, a warm light suddenly lingered on Bai Ren's body. In front of the Huo Dou, Bai Ren's figure actually grew longer little by little, and finally turned into the appearance of an adult man.

The man's facial features actually haven't changed much, except that his edges and corners are more distinct. His mature appearance and slender figure all show that he has grown up, and his broad back seems to be able to withstand all the storms.

"Woof!"

Huoto cried out, seemingly surprised by the change in Bai Ren.

He stretched out his hand and looked at his wide palm. Bai Ren's narrow eyes were dull for a moment, then he raised his head and looked at the Huotou opposite him.

He had always known in his heart that the reason he looked like a teenager was because something was missing from his emotions. But now, thanks to Xiao Mo's enlightenment, he had grown up.

Sure enough, Xiao Mo is different to him!

He didn't know how the other energy bodies grew, but now he had some insights, perhaps because he understood the feeling of wanting to protect the people he loved wholeheartedly.

Bai Ren couldn't help but lower his head and place a light kiss on Huo Dou's forehead, and his smile became even more gentle.

Holding the little beast in his arms tightly, rubbing his chin against the soft fur on his back, Bai Ren squinted his eyes comfortably and whispered, "Xiao Mo, thank you."

"I heard your name is Huodou, but I don't like this name. What does Huo and Dou have to do with you?

You are so kind and lovely, and you always warm my heart. Can I give you a new name?"

When Huodou heard Bai Ren's words, he tilted his head, then raised his head and licked the man's chin, which made Bai Ren laugh.

Reaching out and stroking the soft fur of the little beast, Bai Ren whispered to him, "I've always called you Xiao Mo because you have such beautiful black fur. But just calling you Xiao Mo isn't enough, let's give it a complete name.

How about I call you Mo Yi from now on?

It's the "Yi" character with four fires. You see, there's a flame-like red mark on your forehead, and you're good at using fire, so I think this character is a perfect match for you. And most importantly, "Yi" in the name means peace.

"Is it okay? Mo Yi!"

Bai Ren lifted the little animal to his eye level, then leaned over and rubbed its little head.

Huodou seemed to understand what he said, and suddenly pounced on Bai Ren's head, licked his cheek hard, and wagged its tail quickly, looking very happy.

The man and the beast were laughing and joking together, which made Bai Ren couldn't help but think of his previous life.

At that time, he could only maintain the form of a small octopus, wrapped around the body of the scoundrel. But they played together every day and were really happy.

In this life, Bai Ren was a demon lord, and his demon form was exactly the same as in his previous life. So he simply extended a finger, which transformed into an octopus tentacle, stretched it out, and wrapped it around the body of the evil spirit.

Seeing the Huotou wagging its tail even more happily after being entangled by him, Bai Ren felt satisfied.

Just as the two of them were playing, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the cave. It must be someone coming.

However, Bai Ren was not panicked, because the familiar breath told him that the person coming was his father.

Bai Su had a lot of things to do to gather all the sects. Chen Tian took the opportunity to come to Bai Ren and Huo Dou's cave, wanting to see Huo Dou's situation.

Who knew that as soon as I came in, I saw Bai Ren who had grown into an adult.

Chen Tian was a little surprised, then he realized that it might be because of the Huotou, and looked at the two little ones stuck together with a complicated expression.

No, maybe it shouldn’t be said two little ones now, because one of them has grown up.

He extended his hand and handed the medicine he had found to Bai Ren, saying to him, "This is the best medicine here. It should be more effective on Huo Dou than the ones Yuan Qing gave you. It will help with his injuries."

Bai Ren took the medicine after hearing this and said to Chen Tian with a smile: "Father, don't call him Little Mo Huodou anymore. I have given him a new name, Mo Yi."

"Mo Yi? That's a good name."

Chen Tian nodded, then inquired about the condition of the Huo Dou. He heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that they were only suffering minor injuries. He then talked about the strategies that Bai Su had discussed with some of the people from the sects he had contacted after discovering the demon clan.

The two discussed the plan that Bai Ren had arranged before. In fact, there are people from the demon clan in various sects now, which will have a great impact on their future actions.

While the father and son were discussing, Bai Ren never put Huo Dou down and kept holding him tightly in his arms.

Chen Tian looked at their particularly close appearance and felt that something was amiss. However, at the moment, he was more concerned about Bai Su. He just wanted to finish discussing with Bai Ren as soon as possible so that he could return before Bai Su came back.

So after finishing the business, Chen Tian left.

Having just experienced a battle with the demons, everyone was very tired and found a place to rest.

Normally speaking, monks would not want to be too close to each other when practicing and resting, but now, there are too many of them and they can't care about that. Many disciples with low cultivation levels even gather together to meditate and rest.

The Beidou Sect's group was also divided into several areas, but those above the elder level naturally received much better treatment. For example, the cave where Bai Su was resting was empty, with only him and Chen Tian.

After Chen Tian left the cave where Bai Ren was, he still had to walk some distance before he could go back.

Although it was a good thing that the Huo Dou had been found, Chen Tian's mood was still a little heavy when he thought of Bai Su. Along the way, he had been thinking about the countermeasures.

He was only halfway there when he suddenly felt a strong spiritual force attacking him from behind.

His keen five senses allowed him to detect the oncoming person's movements early on, so he nimbly dodged the opponent's attack and instantly sent out his spiritual consciousness to control the person who wanted to attack him.

But when he turned around, Chen Tian found that the person who had just attacked him was Fairy Ningxuan.

Chen Tian could sense that when this person attacked him just now, he was very ruthless and it was obvious that he wanted to kill him.

"How can your spiritual sense be so strong? Who are you?"

Fairy Ningxuan was shocked when she found that she couldn't even move and was completely controlled. She immediately asked Chen Tian in panic.

In fact, she had long wanted to harm Chen Tian. After being ridiculed by Chen Tian several times, she held a grudge against him.

He even felt that it was because of Chen Tian that Bai Su disliked him and he lost his chance.

Fairy Ningxuan had always been pampered and had never suffered such injustice. She became more and more resentful of Chen Tian and wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on him.

But along the way, Bai Su and Chen Tian were always together, and Ning Xuan never found any opportunity to take action.

Finally, because of the appearance of the demons, Bai Su had to take charge of such a big event. She was very busy, and only then could she wait until Chen Tian was alone.

I originally thought that I could take this opportunity to kill Chen Tian and then put the blame on the demons.

Frowning, Chen Tian looked at the woman across from him. They clearly had no grudges against each other, yet this woman had repeatedly provoked him, which was truly unpleasant. She had even attacked him casually, seemingly treating human life like worthless.

"Please spare me, please spare me! I will never dare to attack you again, I promise!" As if she saw the dissatisfaction in Chen Tian's eyes, Ning Xuan quickly begged for mercy.

Although she couldn't figure out the opponent's strength, she was able to hold him firmly in place with just her spiritual sense. Fairy Ningxuan naturally knew that she was no match for Chen Tian.

For her, killing a person of low cultivation level was nothing. If someone offended her, she would pretend to be magnanimous on the surface, but would secretly look for an opportunity to kill him, and she would not take it seriously at all. However, she did not expect that she would run into a hard nail this time.

Worried that Chen Tian would do something bad to her, Fairy Ningxuan begged for mercy repeatedly, hoping that Chen Tian would let her go.

Because Chen Tian didn't kill her outright, she was even more certain that he was a soft-hearted person, and sneered in her heart. She thought that if Chen Tian let her go, she would immediately go to the camp and tell everyone about his strange behavior.

At that time, we can also say that this person is a spy of the demon clan. Regardless of whether he is or not, we may be able to take advantage of the situation and kill him.

Chen Tian sensed the malice in Ning Xuan's eyes, sighed inwardly, and was about to attack. Unexpectedly, a huge tentacle stretched out from behind Ning Xuan, instantly strangling the woman's neck and breaking it.

Then, Bai Ren, who was not far away, came out leisurely. As he walked, his arms, which had just transformed into tentacles, also recovered their human form.

When they got closer, Bai Ren simply waved his sleeves, and Ning Xuan's body turned into a pile of dust in front of them.

Chen Tian twitched his eyes when he saw this. How could he put it? His own stupid son was really simple and crude in his actions...
