At that time, Ouyang Changqing, who was only a little over ten years old, was dressed in rags and begging on the streets when he met Xie Lanzhi, the eldest son of the Xie family, who was traveling in a sedan chair.

A fleeting glimpse, and I was awestruck.

At that time, there were more than ten people begging with him.

There were elderly people and young people.

After Xie Lanzhi discovered them, she sent people to give them food and assigned them work.

Perhaps, for Xie Lanzhi, this was just a small favor, a trivial matter not worth mentioning.

However, for them, it provided a place to settle down and make a living.

He will never forget that sunny afternoon, and that warm-hearted older brother.

Ouyang Changqing didn't know how she left the Xie mansion, nor did she know when she, who never shed a tear, had started to be in tears.

Ouyang Changqing leaned against a large tree and slid down to the ground.

Tears flowed silently, soaking a large patch of her clothes.

After a long while, as if he had thought of something, Ouyang Changqing suddenly perked up.

Since he was in the underworld, he did not see Xie Lanzhi.

Is it possible that the other party also obtained an opportunity and became a spiritual cultivator or a soul cultivator?

Thinking of this, Ouyang Changqing's dejection vanished.

“He will definitely find his older brother, no matter how long it takes, he will not give up.”

“One day, he will find his older brother,” Ouyang Changqing thought to himself.

Demon King's Palace

The newly appointed Demon King Jiao Li sat on the throne in the Demon King's Palace, casually playing with his fingers.

Inside the main hall stood three demon envoys and a group of demons whose cultivation was at least at the Integration Stage.

The demons stood trembling in the hall, not daring to utter a sound.

A year ago, Jiao Li accidentally entered an ancient demon realm secret realm in the fragments of the demon realm.

In the secret realm, they found the dragon's lair of the ancient demon dragon.

They found the inner core of a demonic dragon and some other cultivation resources in the dragon's lair.

After leaving the ancient demon realm, his cultivation level increased from the late stage of Mahayana to the peak stage of Mahayana.

At that time, he was just one of the four demon envoys under the former demon king.

After leaving the secret realm, he did not rush back to the Demon King's Palace.

After all, he wasn't confident he could keep such a treasure as the Demon Dragon's Inner Core from the previous Demon King.

There's no reasoning with them in Shanghai.

In other words, it's all about who's stronger being right.

At least, that's what Jiao Li always thought.

If he takes the Demon Dragon's inner core back and it is indeed snatched away by the former Demon King, he can only accept his bad luck.

He would never accept that.

Rather than harboring a treasure that others covet, it's better to consume and refine it as soon as possible.

So he sought a place to settle on the edge of the demon realm and went into seclusion to cultivate.

During the search, they were unexpectedly drawn into the Void Realm by a spatial fluctuation.

The desolate realm was empty, with nothing but gray rocks and gray land in sight.

Upon entering the Void Domain, the demonic dragon core within Jiao Li's body became excited. Before Jiao Li could react, it began to thirstily absorb the demonic energy permeating the air.

The concentration of demonic energy here is several times denser than in the Demon Realm.

Upon realizing this, Jiao Li burst into uncontrollable laughter, raising his hands high and laughing loudly to the sky: "Hahaha... Truly, heaven is helping me! Heaven is helping me!"

"With the help of the demonic energy here, how can we not conquer the Demon Realm?"

"I, Jiao Li, am the chosen one by Heaven, the next Demon King of the Demon Realm! Hahaha..."
