Chapter 61 The Demon Lord's Hidden Childhood



Now all that's left is for You Zhengqing to achieve his wish, and then Li Muge will receive the first strand of affection.

But for some reason, Li Muge felt unhappy. She looked up at the sky and couldn't help but think about her past.

Just as she was about to leave, unexpectedly, the time-reversal array she had set up malfunctioned and underwent an anomaly, sucking her in as well.

When Li Muge entered the vortex, the abandoned Fu family underwent a sudden transformation.

The abandoned furniture gradually became clean.

The Fu residence now appears as if it were inhabited.

Yun Qi was too late. He searched the Fu residence for a long time but could not find Li Muge.

He used his magic to sense Li Muge's presence.

But they found nothing.

Li Muge originally thought that even if he was sucked into the time-space reversal formation, he would still be able to achieve his goal.

She guessed that she was also going back to Chang'an twenty years ago, and by the way, to see how You Zhengqing would kill his past self.

But when she got up, she realized that she was indeed Chang'an, but not the Chang'an of more than 20 years ago.

It was Chang'an a thousand years ago.

She tried to use magic to return to the real world, but the spiritual energy she needed to dispel the formation would quickly wither and disappear if exposed to this world.

"Strange, what bad luck! How did I end up back in this place?"

Li Muge took a few steps. It was Chang'an a thousand years ago, when the order of the three realms was not yet clear.

Demons roam the human world.

Some demons transform into human form and hide among the people.

Some demons, whose evil nature has not been eradicated, feed on the vital energy of mortals.

A thousand years ago, Chang'an was the most prosperous era for the development of immortal cultivation sects in the human world.

Everywhere you look on the streets, you can see cultivators carrying swords.

Since Li Muge couldn't leave anytime soon, she decided to find a place to stay; she didn't want to sleep in an inn right now.

He simply used a little spiritual power to transform himself into a parrot and flew to a branch to rest.

However, even the simple wish of getting a good night's sleep was disturbed.

She kept hearing the sound of children being hit.

It was the sound of a whip striking a child's body.

"You debt collector, it's all your fault that your father discovered I'm a demon."

"Why? If you couldn't keep your father, then what was the point of me giving birth to you?"

"Why, you debt collector, why are you a dragon and not a human? Die! Die!"

The woman shouted and cursed angrily, but Li Muge was curious as to why she was being beaten so badly.

The child didn't utter a single sound.

Has he already kicked the bucket?

A green parrot flew up from a branch and landed by a window; the sound came from there.

The room was dimly lit and filled with straw.

If you don't look carefully, you won't even notice the little boy huddled in the corner.

His feet were shackled with heavy iron chains.

A woman held a whip in her hand and frantically lashed the little boy, her eyes filled with hatred and disgust.

Li Muge didn't understand.

What did this little boy do wrong to make this woman hate him so much? She's clearly trying to beat him to death.

The boy was probably only five years old.

He was so thin he was practically skin and bones; there was no good flesh left on his body, only whip marks, bruises, or burn marks from branding irons.

Li Muge noticed that the little boy had a conspicuous character "slave" printed on his back.

No matter how much the woman abused him, the little boy seemed to have gotten used to it and never uttered a sound.

He simply hugged his body, protected his head, and huddled in the corner, letting the woman hit him.

After the woman finished hitting the person, she suddenly threw away the whip.

Her eyes were filled with panic, and she nervously hugged the little boy tightly: "I'm sorry, Yunqi, I'm sorry, Yunqi, Mother didn't mean it."

“Mother couldn’t control herself, Mother couldn’t control herself, how could Mother hit you?” The woman knelt on the straw-covered ground.

Tears fell one by one.

When Li Muge heard that the little boy was also named Yun Qi, she immediately became more vigilant. When she saw the woman's face clearly, her pupils contracted instantly.

This woman looks exactly like Xue'er, the woman whom the Heavenly Emperor cherishes.

A thought flashed through Li Muge's mind: Could this little boy really be Yun Qi?

That's why he hated the immortal realm so much later on, and even when he didn't want to live anymore, he wanted to drag the three realms down with him.

Xiao Xue stroked the wounds on her son's body, sobbing uncontrollably. Her life had been so miserable.

She was originally a carefree princess of the dragon kingdom, but after only a hundred years in human form, she decided to experience life in the human world.

Unexpectedly, he encountered Zhuang Jin, a cultivator.

He was a genius that only appeared once in a hundred years in the cultivation sect, yet he was willing to betray his sect for him.

Such days continued until Yunqi was born.

At that time, Xiao Xue had just given birth, but her child did not inherit her husband's identity; instead, it was a dragon.

Zhuang Jin was furious. He had a deep hatred for monsters and evil spirits all his life, and he could not bear the fact that he had married a demon dragon.

He felt even more strongly that Xiao Xue had deceived him.

In a fit of rage, she wanted to kill Yun Qi, but Xiao Xue desperately stopped her, holding the child and pleading with her.

Zhuang Jin broke his sword, severed his ties to the mortal world overnight, survived the tribulation of lightning, and became a high and mighty Heavenly Lord.

No matter how much Xiao Xue repented, Zhuang Jin refused to return to the mortal realm to see his son and Xiao Xue again.

When young Yunqi saw that his mother had returned to normal, his eyes gradually regained their childlike innocence, but also showed a hint of confusion.

He didn't know why his mother hit him, but if being hit would stop his mother from being sad.

He can tolerate it.
