Of course, the Flood Dragon Demon Emperor was also somewhat unpredictable.
We live in a chaotic world, and the human realm is in utter disarray.
The person in front of me is looking for yet another human.
Perhaps that person had already perished somewhere during those three years of chaos.
Ji Chen clearly saw through the Dragon Demon Emperor's thoughts and sneered, "This woman named Mo Yurou almost became my stepmother. What do you think her identity is?"
The Flood Dragon Demon Emperor trembled, utterly astonished.
Ji Chen sneered again and continued, "Back then, she was the woman my father specifically asked me to marry."
"The engagement was arranged, but on the wedding day, she ran away."
"She dares to run away from a marriage with my Ji family; this woman is incredibly bold."
"I finally found some clues and learned that she fled to the Human Realm back then, which is why I came here to search for her myself. You must help me find her. Once you find her, I will bring her back to the Ji family."
"And from now on, your Demon Kingdom will also receive the protection of my Ji family. As you conquer this world, your Demon Kingdom will also have a place."
"Yes, thank you, sir! I will obey!"
...
Meanwhile, Gu Jian was unaware that people from the Spirit Realm had come to find his mother.
now.
He had arrived in front of the Emperor Dragon Star Palace.
Because Ye Qingcheng and the other women had been following behind, Gu Jian already knew that in the Emperor Dragon Star Palace, besides the possible princess of the Demon Dragon Kingdom, there were also the people from Jiugong Village.
Even Gu Xiu was included.
However, Gu Jian did not stop.
Deliberately avoiding him will make him feel that he is not strong enough.
Having cultivated the demonic path to this point, he can now face everything with composure and ruthlessness.
As the gates of the Emperor Dragon Star Palace slowly opened.
The villagers of Jiugong Village all turned to look.
With the help of the dragon princess, they did not die.
However, I've been stuck here for months.
They also looked very haggard, and their faces showed great anxiety.
They were all surprised when they saw Gu Jian enter.
Who are you?
"Yes, a demonic cultivator?!"
Sensing the aura of a demonic cultivator emanating from Gu Jian, they became even more frightened.
Gu Jian's cold gaze swept over the villagers, and he spotted several faces.
They weren't very close, but Gu Jian still remembered them.
At this moment, Gu Jian did not release any terrifying aura.
But those who were caught in Gu Jian's gaze instinctively became frightened and their bodies trembled.
Ordinary people in chaotic times are no different from ants.
They felt that if the young man harbored any evil thoughts, they would die immediately.
At this moment.
Gu Xue, Ye Qingcheng, and the other women rushed in together.
Seeing the fear on the villagers' faces as they looked at Gu Jian, he quickly said, "Don't be afraid, everyone, this is my brother."
"This is my brother, Gu Jian!"
Gu Jian?!
Upon hearing this long-unheard name, the villagers present were immediately invigorated.
They knew, of course, that Gu Xue had left to go find Gu Jian.
Let Gu Jianqian save them.
They didn't actually have much hope.
They felt that even if Gu Xue found Gu Jian, the latter would not be able to break into the Nine Heavens Star Palace to save them.
But now, this person called Gu Jian is standing at the entrance of the Emperor Dragon Star Palace.
How is that possible?
The villagers were extremely surprised.
However, he still felt awe towards the white-haired man before him.
Regardless, he was a demonic cultivator.
Demonic cultivators are those who harm people.
Ignoring everything else, Gu Xue rushed into the main hall to find her father.
She brought her brother back.
Father should be very happy, but I wonder how his injured leg is doing.
"Father, I'm back."
"Father, where are you?"
"Grandma Gu, where is my father?"
Following her memories from a few months ago, Gu Xue did not find her father, but instead saw an old woman with a full head of white hair on the steps of the main hall.
Granny Gu was pleasantly surprised to see Gu Xue again, but then her expression turned somber as she said, "Xue'er, you're back. That's wonderful."
"But your father is badly injured and is lying in his room now."
After saying that, Granny Gu sighed.
Since the Dragon Princess Long Yuan is no longer willing to save Gu Xiu, he can only wait to die.
"In a room? Which room? I'll go check."
Gu Xue spoke again.
"there!"
As Granny Gu pointed, Gu Xue immediately headed in the direction she indicated.
Grandma Gu looked ahead again.
There, a man with silver hair like frost was slowly approaching.
Grandma Gu was astonished to see him.
The young man had grown up, his hair now frosty and disheveled.
However, Grandma Gu recognized him at a glance; he was the well-behaved and sensible little boy who used to call her "Grandma."
Unlike the other villagers, Granny Gu showed no fear.
A kind look appeared in her cloudy eyes as she watched Gu Jian approach and said, "You must be Xiao Jian. Do you still remember this old woman?"
Gu Jian nodded gently and said, "Yes, Grandma, I remember."
Hearing that sound felt like stepping back in time.
Grandma Gu thought back to those days, to that adorable little boy who was always so kind to her.
And she would affectionately pat his head.
The thought of the boy who was abandoned back then, now grown up and back, is so touching.
Grandma Gu sighed, tears welling up in her cloudy eyes.
Granny Gu slowly stepped forward and came to Gu Jian.
She couldn't help but raise her hand again, just like before, to touch Gu Jian's head.
