“Somebody?” Zhuo Hua felt confused. ‘Who could make Nan Chen form the inner demon?’

“Yes, Master. That person deceived and took advantage of me because I trusted him. I swear, I must kill him by myself. Master, will you think I’m too obsessed?” Nan Chen looked up at Zhuo Hua, not letting his any expressions slip. However, Nan Chen could only find solicitude on Zhuo Hua’s face.

“No, I won’t. I believe in you and the reason why you have such a feeling must be that the person had done something unforgivable, otherwise you wouldn’t develop an inner demon deep in your heart.” Zhuo Hua kept asking, “Who is that person? And where is him?”

“Master, you don’t know him. That person is an immortal without title. He used to be a friend of mine acquainted when I carried out a mission downhill.”

Zhuo Hua stopped requesting. It did no help even if he knew who exactly the person was. The demon in mind could only be removed by Nan Chen himself.

Several days later, the Demon Lord didn’t show up and people started to lose patience.

“Why didn’t the Demon Lord arrive here?”

“Is the Demon Lord afraid of us?”

“It must be! After all, cultivators in over half of the Cultivation World have come for him.”

“Then what should we do next? There are lots of things left to deal with in my sect.”

“How about we head back now? The Demon Lord won’t come no matter how long we have been waiting here.”

Having heard that many cultivators were planning to leave, the Sect Leader of Wanlei was worried.

At first, he felt a bit of relief when noticing that the Demon Lord hadn’t come yet. That meant his Wanlei Sect was safe for the time being. Now the cultivators were about to leave. How could he save the sect if the Demon Lord came to attack?

“Distinguished fellow cultivators, please stay here for a few more days. The Demon Lord is a scourge and we can’t let our guard down.”

Hearing Qing Yangzi’s words, all of them nodded in agreement, “You are right. We shall wait for a longer time.”

“Then what about our sect affairs?” Someone asked.

“Alas, you are not in such a hurry to deal with them, aren’t you?”

“Besides, your eldest disciple is already experienced enough to handle the trifles in the sect, isn’t him?”

The other person nodded, “Right. It’s time to let him handle those things.”

…

The Sect Leader of Wanlei felt relieved when he heard this but frowned in the next moment.

‘These cultivators will still leave in a few days. What should I do by then?’

Qing Yangzi had just returned to his room when someone knocked upon the door. He opened it and found two people standing in front of him.

“Senior Brother?”

Qing Yangzi stepped aside and let Zhuo Hua come into the room with Nan Chen.

“What’s the matter, Senior Brother?”

“I drop by to tell you that I’d like to go back to Muyang Temple first.”

“You are going back first? Did anything unexpected happen?”

“No, just because of my cultivation…”

“What? Does it…” Having noticed that Zhuo Hua frowned, Qing Yangzi stopped talking.

Qing Yangzi looked at Nan Chen. He knew that his Senior Brother didn’t tell anything about it to Nan Chen. So, he shouldn’t spill the beans as well.

“Ahem… Does it reach the breakthrough level?” Qing Yangzi continued to talk after clearing his throat.

“Then you may leave first as you want. It seems that the Demon Lord is not going to attack here.”

“Nan Chen will go back with me.” Zhuo Hua couldn’t be assured if Nan Chen stayed here since he knew that he had developed a deep inner demon.

This was also what Nan Chen want. He wasn’t patient enough to accompany those old geezers.

The two then packed up and left the inn for Muyang Temple.

One day later, they arrived home at midnight.

Having sensed that Zhuo Hua had come back, Kaka who had been asleep soundly jumped out of the bed, waking Li up.

Li saw Kaka running out of the room and also walked outside. He rubbed his eyes, only to find two people standing in the yard. Feeling so excited, Li sprang to the arms of Zhuo Hua.

“Daddy!”
