Chen Yaojin was already familiar with the Underworld as he led Li Xiaonan through a series of teleportations. After about half an hour, they arrived in front of a palace that exuded a chilling aura.
“Boss, Lu Ni Chang and that bastard old man are inside. What do you think... should we storm in?”
Li Xiaonan shot him a glare and replied irritably, “Are you crazy? That guy is the Demon Emperor!”
“Heh, but aren’t you also an immortal?”
“Being an immortal doesn’t mean anything! Do you know the difference between an immortal and an Immortal Emperor?”
“What difference? Isn’t it just one word?”
Li Xiaonan rolled his eyes and recounted Yun Xinghe’s teachings verbatim to Chen Yaojin. “Even though it’s just one word, that word can separate me by several mountains. To be called an emperor means he has his own power base and can connect with different realms, even borrowing strength from them.”
“Wow, that’s impressive.”
“Of course! We’ll split up. Whoever finds Lu Ni Chang first calls.” Li Xiaonan tossed the Big Brother Phone to Chen Yaojin, donned a black robe, and slowly blended into the shadows.
The Underworld remained as lifeless as ever. Li Xiaonan surveyed the similar surroundings and stealthily approached Lu Nishang's room based on his memory.
Inside, a lamp flickered softly, casting a gentle glow. Through the paper window, he could vaguely see the silhouette of a person.
With long hair cascading down to her waist and a slender figure, the person sat at a table, seemingly lost in thought with her chin resting on her hand.
Li Xiaonan’s heart leaped with joy; just seeing that back view was enough to make him feel she was incredibly beautiful.
Overwhelmed with excitement, he immediately concluded that the person inside was indeed Lu Nishang.
The figure slowly stood up, pouting slightly as she blew out the candle on the table, plunging the room into darkness.
Li Xiaonan squinted his eyes and used his Fiery Eyes to track Lu Nishang’s movements. He saw her walk toward the bed and gently lie down on her side.
Looking around and noticing there was no one else present, Li Xiaonan decided to teleport directly into the room, standing dazedly by the bedside.
Without the candlelight illuminating the space, it was quite dark inside.
Even with Li Xiaonan’s keen eyesight, he could only make out a slender figure lying on the bed, long silver hair scattered across her face.
His heart felt as if it had been pierced by a sharp object.
This girl has grown up.
But why does she look so thin? She doesn’t even have any curves...
It must be that bastard, the Demon Emperor, who has been mistreating her and not letting her eat properly, which is why she is underdeveloped.
As he thought this, he reached out his hand and gently stroked the shoulder of the person lying on the bed.
The person remained still. Li Xiaonan leaned in closer and caught a strong whiff of alcohol.
When did this girl learn to drink?
Is it because of me? I'm sorry, Brother Xiaonan, for being late. From now on, we will never be apart again.
No one can stop us.
Not even your father.
A sharp pain pierced through Li Xiaonan's chest, causing him to gasp. He trembled as he pulled the person in his arms closer.
"Lu Ni Chang, is that you?"
Hearing the sudden voice in the room, Li Xiaonan froze.
Wait a minute, although those are my lines, I haven't spoken yet.
And… this voice is male, but when did my voice become so hoarse?
Li Xiaonan scratched his head in confusion and ignited a small flame at his fingertips, sending it into the air.
With the light, he gently brushed aside the messy hair from the forehead of the person in his arms.
The features gradually became clearer, and the person was stirred awake by his touch.
Slowly opening his eyes, he met Li Xiaonan's gaze. His pupils suddenly constricted.
At last, Li Xiaonan could see clearly the person in his embrace.
A face as pale as paper was framed by a pair of dark eyebrows, and sparkling eyes like starlight looked at him in surprise. His thin pink lips parted slightly.
I have to say, the person in my arms is an absolute beauty, but…
Flower Rubbing This is not Lu Ni Chang.
Lu Ni Chang is a typical soft girl, while this person is a standard tough guy. There's not even a hint of femininity here.
Damn it, this person is Lu Ni Chang's father!
Is this going to turn into something inappropriate? Demon Emperor, how can you lie on your daughter's bed? Where did your dignity go?
Li Xiaonan's hand remained frozen in place, pressed against Demon Emperor's cold face for a long while...
The two big men locked eyes, their throats bobbing, and finally, they both jumped back in perfect sync.
At that moment, a thunderous scream erupted in the room: "Ahhh!"
The scream lasted for over a minute before Demon Emperor suddenly stopped and angrily said, "You little brat, have you screamed enough?"
"Ha ha, enough, enough! I was just trying to cooperate with you! Well... it seems Lu Ni Chang isn't here... so I'll come back another time."
Li Xiaonan, looking at the furious Demon Emperor, thought it was best to make a quick exit.
Just as he turned around, Demon Emperor had already blocked the door with a cold smile on his face.
Li Xiaonan cursed himself for being foolish; how could two legs outrun teleportation?
He awkwardly said, "I greet you, Demon Emperor. Actually, I came to find Lu Ni Chang."
"Hmph! Finally speaking properly, huh? After more than a hundred years, it's time to settle old scores," Demon Emperor said coldly, his fingers curling like claws reaching for Li Xiaonan.
But Li Xiaonan was no longer the defenseless fledgling he once was.
With a flick of his wrist, he brandished the Bloodshed Wandering Fan, firmly holding it between Demon Emperor's index and middle fingers.
"Let’s talk things out, Senior Lu."
"I have nothing to say to you. How dare you touch my daughter's room? People like you, who lack upbringing, deserve to go to hell—no, your whole family should go to hell!"
Even a person has their limits. Hearing this, the Demon Emperor could no longer hold back.
Furious, he retorted, "Hell is your domain? Just because you say I should go to hell, I will? Damn it! I respected you because you're Lu Ni Chang's father, but now you're getting too carried away. Just because I give you a little face, you think you can act like this?"
Although Li Xiaonan had previously taught Chen Yaojin and analyzed the differences between the Carefree Dual Cultivation Group and ordinary Cultivators, his rationality had been completely shattered by impulse at this moment.
"You bastard!" The Demon Emperor was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to respond. His anger surged, and he was ready to explode.
Since he couldn't win the argument, he decided to take action. He had initially thought of sparing this kid for Lu Ni Chang's sake, but now… hmph! This kid would be left in the Underworld!
The Demon Emperor's silver hair stood on end as it danced wildly behind him.
Li Xiaonan felt an overwhelming pressure and shouted, "Seven-Level Pagoda, activate!"
At the same time, he gripped the handle of the Carefree Fan and stepped back forcefully, muttering to himself, "I acted impulsively again; impulse is the devil."
He reached for his waist, intending to use the Ghost Realm Monument to teleport himself back.
But a tragic incident occurred—the Boundary Stone was not with him; it was with Chen Yaojin.
The Demon Emperor glanced at the incoming Seven-Level Pagoda with disdain and scoffed, "Hmph, pathetic."
A jade brush appeared in his hand. He lightly swiped it toward the Seven-Level Pagoda.
Immediately, a charred mark appeared on the tower's body.
Li Xiaonan felt both shocked and pained at the sight.
The Carefree Dual Cultivation Group—his only one! Damn it! What could he do now?
He quickly retracted the Seven-Level Pagoda and used Swift Steps to dart out of the room.
"Hmph! Where do you think you're going?" The Demon Emperor pressed down with both hands, forcibly halting Li Xiaonan in mid-air.
"Poof…" It felt as if someone had punched him hard in the chest and back. His insides trembled violently as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Demon Emperor coldly raised a hand and reached down toward Li Xiaonan, who was immediately slammed to the ground.
What the hell…
Li Xiaonan felt utterly frustrated. Unfortunately, there was no such thing as regret medicine in this world. He finally tasted what it meant to be part of the Carefree Dual Cultivation Group.
It seemed that after spending a hundred years indulging in pleasures with Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm, he hadn't even grasped their true nature. Now, let alone avenging Father-in-law and Mother of the Mountain, he had even lost his own wife…
Without the support of the Harmony Technique, relying solely on the Martial Soul Technique, I am still a useless person...
Speaking of the Martial Soul Technique, it reminds me of someone—Yu Jizi.
It's strange that my master ascended long before me, yet there hasn't been any news from him since he arrived in the Immortal Realm.
The Martial Soul Technique only has seven levels, and I have already reached the peak of the sixth level. What should I do to cultivate further?
Lost in thought, Li Xiaonan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his jaw and finally snapped back to reality.
In front of him was a cold, handsome face—the Demon Emperor, squatting on the ground with one hand resting on his knee, looking as if he was trying to show off for someone.
"You little brat, not running away anymore? Just a minor immortal, and you dare to challenge me? You were so talkative before; why are you silent now?"
Li Xiaonan forced a smile. He neither begged for mercy nor continued to act tough; he simply asked, "How is Lu Ni Chang doing now?"
The Demon Emperor's pupils constricted sharply. "Hmph! You still have the nerve to say that after stealing my daughter's heart? You are truly despicable."
"I was wrong, a thousand times wrong. Can you let me see her just once? As long as I know she is well, that's enough."
Li Xiaonan's eyes were misty as he gazed at the Demon Emperor. With blood at the corner of his mouth, he couldn't help but appear pitiful. At least it seemed to have an effect; the Demon Emperor didn't resist.
The Demon Emperor lowered his head in silence for a long time before finally saying, "She should be doing quite well now."
"Then where is she? Can I see her just for a moment? I won't let her notice me."
"Heh heh." The Demon Emperor suddenly laughed, his voice tinged with helplessness and pain, which left Li Xiaonan puzzled.
"She is already with someone she wants to see and will no longer wish to see you."
The Demon Emperor's words struck Li Xiaonan like a bolt from the blue.
With someone she wants to see... She doesn't want to see me... Does Lu Ni Chang have someone else in her heart?
Indeed, it has been so long since I last saw Lu Ni Chang. It wouldn't be surprising if she had found someone she likes... Heh heh... Heh heh...
"Hey, you little brat, what are you laughing at? You look worse than when you're crying," the Demon Emperor said, having taken out a jar of wine and sitting down next to Li Xiaonan, drinking by himself.
"It's nothing... as long as Lu Ni Chang is happy..." A heart-shaped water mark was left on the cold ground, but it evaporated in an instant as if nothing had ever happened.
I cried.
How pitiful it is that people only realize pain after they have lost something.
"What do you think I should do with you?" the Demon Emperor muttered, rubbing his mouth and frowning.
