Chapter 833: One Thing Subdues Another

But, how did Dad become so small? He's a bit shorter than me, so can I call him Dad's younger brother?

Everyone: "......"

Xiaohu Xiaocheng, he really is your father; he's just injured, temporarily turned into his childhood self, and temporarily forgotten us. Once we find the Supreme One Mysterious Water, he'll return to his former self.

Xiaohu Xiaocheng nodded obediently.

However, before that, we must keep this a secret and not let others know. So, in front of outsiders, you will call him five years old.

Five years old?

I'm six, Dad's five, how amazing.

Xiao Hu counted on his fingers, found it amazing.

Woman, I said my name is Fu Hanxiu, not Fu Wusui.

Fu Hanxiu objected.

Ye Qingran looked at him and asked, "Are you surnamed Fu?"

Yes.

Are you five years old?

Yes...

Then I'll call you Fu Wusui; is there a problem?

No... Fu Hanxiu stared blankly at Ye Qingran, not knowing if he was captivated by her beauty or what, and dazedly let her lead him astray.

No, I...

Stop. I'm doing this for your own good, and I haven't made you change your name. If you're unwilling, then I won't hold you.

Ye Qingran turned her head away.

As soon as he heard Ye Qingran wouldn't hold him, Fu Hanxiu became anxious.

Fu Er, Fu San, Fu Hanxiu has grown up; he no longer needs us, and it's time for us to let go.

Fu Er and Fu San suppressed their laughter.

In this world, indeed, one thing subdues another.

They nodded in agreement, "Okay..."

No! Fu Wusui is Fu Wusui!

Fu Hanxiu clung to Ye Qingran's thigh, afraid she'd abandon him.

Xiaohu Xiaocheng watched this scene, blinked, and realized it seemed another person had come to compete for Mother's embrace!

Xiao Chen, we must hurry to find the Supreme One Mysterious Water!

Mm!

A sense of urgency spread through Xiaohu Xiaocheng's heart.

The entrance to the Demon God Relic lies within Mo Yuan.

A barrier blocked everyone outside.

These past days, people have continuously come down from the island through that cave, and the grasslands are already crowded.

Clan Leader, the humans have begun attacking the barrier!

With so many attacking together, even a strong barrier cannot hold!

Niu Dali sat up upon hearing this, angrily said, "Clan Leader, let me go drive them away!"

Xiong Zuzhang (Group Leader) gently shook his head, "Dali, sit down first. Our ancestors voluntarily guarded the Demon God Prince here and swore an oath: as long as the Demon God Tomb does not see the light of day, we shall never leave Mo Yuan."

Now that the Demon God Tomb has seen the light of day, all this is heavenly will; we should not obstruct it but follow the mandate of heaven.

But... Niu Dali's face flushed.

I know what you want to say." Xiong Zuzhang (Tribe Chief) gazed at the outside sky, his expression somewhat ethereal, "Mo Yuan exists because of the Demon God Tomb, and will ultimately disappear with it..."

Xiong Zhanglao's lips curled, three parts despondent, seven parts relieved.

The demon race of Mo Yuan has finally fulfilled its mission.

Upon saying this, the faces of the great demons present grew solemn.

They had always known Mo Yuan and the Demon God Tomb were closely linked, but never imagined this day would come so swiftly.

They were not yet prepared when fate took a turn.

Will Mo Yuan cease to exist?

What should they do?

Clan Leader, if Mo Yuan is gone, where can we go?

Xiong Zuzhang (Tribe Chief) swept his gaze over the great demons present, "No one can tell us where we will go. However, misfortune may hinge on fortune, and fortune on misfortune; do not overly worry—for Mo Yuan, this may not be a bad thing."

Mo Yuan has endured for nineteen thousand nine hundred ninety-nine years.

The barrier shrouding above Mo Yuan vanished.

The humans waiting outside surged into Mo Yuan, passed through the village where the great demons dwell, and entered the Demon God Relic.

After entering Mo Yuan, the human cultivators discovered many spiritual fruits unseen outside, and could not help but feel greed.

The great demons were about to stop them, but were halted by Xiong Zuzhang (Tribe Chief).

Forget it, let them go. After all, this Mo Yuan originally belonged to human territory; we have reproduced here for many years, and it's time to return it to them.

The great demons nodded and did not intervene further.

As they gazed at the endless humans before them and the increasingly chaotic village, sorrow welled up in their hearts, a feeling that something precious was about to slip away.

Ye Qingran and her companions, watching the vast crowd from a big tree, sighed inwardly, fearing that after the Demon God Relic's power is fully released, Mo Yuan will cease to exist.

These years, Mo Yuan has clearly depended on the Demon God Relic for its existence; few people know of Mo Yuan's existence, and even if they do, they cannot find a way in.

But all this has quietly changed.

Mo Yuan's future, where will it go?

"Prepare yourselves, it's time for us to enter the Demon God Relic."

The top priority is to find Supreme One Mysterious Water; she must locate it before the people of Wuji Hall do, or it will become more troublesome.

Thump thump thump~

Knocking came from outside the door.

"It's Tiger Demon King Aunt!"

Xiao Hu didn't even need to ask to know who was outside; she ran over, opened the door, and indeed Tiger Demon King Aunt was standing there.

"Tiger Demon King Aunt, why are you here?"

"I came to bring you something."

Ye Qingran also stepped forward, revealing a friendly smile.

Ye Qingran felt deep gratitude toward this Tiger Demon King Aunt.

If Niu Dali taught Xiao Hu various skills and taught him the responsibility a man should have, then Hu Meili taught Xiao Hu carefulness, patience, kindness, and so on.

"Come in and sit."

Hu Meili shook her head, "I won't sit. You came to Mo Yuan this time not only for the child, but you should also be going to the Demon God Relic. This is a holy relic of the Demon Race; in a critical moment it can transport you out of the Demon God Relic."

Xiao Hu blinked, "Tiger Demon King Aunt, aren't you going?"
