Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"Master, why don't you stay with us first! Anyway, you still have time to convince Feng'er later." Helan Ruofeng said to Taibu Xingjun with good temper.

"You old man, if Ruofeng doesn't want to go back to the God Realm, then he doesn't want to go back to the God Realm. Why do you insist on forcing him to separate from Xiaoyu? I don't like you." Lan Ruo couldn't stand it anymore at this time, and pointed at Taibu Xingjun and cursed.

"Why do you, old man, insist on forcing others to do things against their will? If you do this again, I will ask the Fourth Elder to drive you away." You Yu also joined Lan Ruo's team.

"What do you little kids know? Everyone has his own mission. Ruofeng's mission is not to fool around with you." The smile on Taibu Xingjun's face faded, and he said with a very serious expression.

Helan Ruofeng and Yu Xiaobai also noticed his seriousness. They looked at each other but said nothing. After all, this was the life they longed for and they didn't want it to be disrupted.

"Master, you should stay for a few days. I really need time to consider. Please let me think about it first." Helan Ruofeng suddenly softened and begged.

When Yu Xiaobai saw Helan Ruofeng like this, he couldn't help feeling a little panic. They had finally made up their minds to settle down again, and finally found someone willing to live with him.

Now, this person might be snatched away, how could she not be panicked!

On the way back to Yufengju, Yu Xiaobai held Helan Ruofeng's hand tightly. He would occasionally glance at Taibu Xingjun, revealing obvious hostility.

Seeing this, Lan Ruo, Ling Chuan and the other two decided not to go back with them, but went home separately.

After returning to Yufengju, Helan Ruofeng was still busy cooking, eating and tidying the house like he had been in the previous few days.

Yu Xiaobai followed closely like conjoined twins. Taibu Xingjun, however, sat in the yard with a heavy face, not saying a word, watching the scene coldly.

At first, he just let Helan Ruofeng like Yu Xiaobai and even helped him with various strategies. Now, the two have really decided to be together, but he suddenly appears to break them up.

Taibu Xingjun also felt that he was a piece of shit. He was already old, but he still did such evil things as destroying people's marriages.

But the Emperor of Heaven's order was for him to convert Wei Qing, rather than let him stay in the demon world forever.

In the kitchen, Helan Ruofeng looked at Yu Xiaobai holding his hand tightly, and a sense of inexplicable sweetness rose in his heart. He liked this kind of life. As long as he was with Xiaoyu, even if they had no food in their house, even if they had no food after the last meal, he was still full in his heart.

“Xiao Yu, I don’t want to be a god at all, nor do I want to go back to the so-called divine realm with my master. I was born a naughty boy who grew up by the sea, an ordinary mortal. As long as Xiao Yu doesn’t despise me for having nothing, I will not give up Xiao Yu.” Helan Ruofeng finally stopped and looked at Yu Xiaobai and said seriously.

"It's not that I despise you for having nothing, but you shouldn't despise me for having nothing. I am just an orphan, while you not only have parents who love each other, but also a master who loves you. Ruofeng, compared to you, I am nothing, so I am more afraid that you will leave me." Yu Xiaobai said, his heart full of worry.

"I, Helan Ruofeng, will never leave Yu Xiaobai." Helan Ruofeng pretended to swear and pulled Yu Xiaobai's hand back.

"You don't have to swear, I believe you." Yu Xiaobai interrupted him.

Dinner consisted of rice sent by Bi Cangyan and fish they caught in their spare time.

Taibu Xingjun looked at the two people's faces with a puzzled look. It seemed that they were pretending to be happy and were no longer as relaxed and happy as they were during the day.

That night, Yu Xiaobai tossed and turned alone, unable to fall asleep. Helan Ruofeng and Taibu Xingjun were lying on the same bed, but the master and disciple were speechless.

In the yard outside the house, Hei Duo looked at Fu Yue with contempt.

“Don’t look at me like that. The contract was signed by the two of them. Even if I want to protect Miss Xiaoyu, my master is still Helan Ruofeng.” Fu Yue said to Hei Duo with cold eyes.

His original mission was to protect Lord Feng Xi from being harmed by others, but Lord Demon King tricked him into becoming Helan Ruofeng's slave. If Helan Ruofeng wanted to separate from the Demon King, he would also be forced to separate from the Demon King because of the contract.

No matter how much Hei Duo blamed him, it would be of no use.

"That's right. This matter is Helan Ruofeng's fault, not my master's. If he dares to let the master down, I will eat him even at the risk of being sealed again." Hei Duo said indignantly.

"If you really dare to eat him, your master will cut you into pieces." Fu Yue said with a smile.

"Then tell me what to do? On one side is the master, and on the other side is the master's beloved. This person also hurt the master. Can't I vent my anger on behalf of the master?" Hei Duo asked frustratedly.

"I don't know either. I don't have anyone I like. My mission is just to protect Miss Xiaoyu, and now I have to protect my - master." Fu Yue's words were full of helplessness.

It’s late at night, the moon is dark and the wind is strong…

Bai Qiyang and Long Xiao fell asleep quietly beside the spiritual spring pool in Lanyuan Pavilion.

Lan Moqiu looked at the two of them with tender eyes. It seemed that Taibu Xingjun had found Helan Ruofeng.

I don’t know what Helan Ruofeng’s final choice will be, whether that guy will eventually become a human being again, and whether he will be willing to return to him.

Lan Moqiu closed his eyes helplessly and turned back to the house.

In the East Sea, on a small island, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse...

In a shabby little house by the sea, Cong Li and Su Jin gathered around a bonfire, carefully turning and roasting the fish in their hands.

"Su Jin, is the fish you grilled edible?" Cong Li stared at the fish on the campfire that had turned black.

They hadn't eaten for a long time, and he was worried that he would starve to death if he didn't eat something.

"Of course you can eat it. I can already smell the fragrance of the fish. I guarantee you'll feast on it and enjoy it endlessly." Su Jin said confidently. He was almost starving, but he still patiently continued to grill the fish.

"I always feel that the color of this fish is not right." Cong Li said, still staring at the fish in Su Jin's hand.

"It's no big deal if the color is wrong, as long as it tastes right." A smug smile appeared on Su Jin's little face. He often peeked at Taibu Xingjun grilling fish, so how could he not grill a good fish?

"Actually, I can accept eating it raw." Cong Li said cautiously.

"No, how can you, such a beautiful girl, eat raw fish? I must roast it before letting you eat it. You can't eat it raw behind my back!" Su Jin warned Cong Li in a very firm tone.

"Okay!" Seeing that he was so determined, Cong Li could only respond reluctantly.

After Su Jin's tossing and baking, a black fish was handed to Cong Li.

Cong Li looked at the fish that was so burnt that it was inedible, then looked at Su Jin's expectant eyes. Finally, he gritted his teeth and took a bite of the fish.

"How is it? Is it delicious? Well, tell me quickly? Why don't you say anything?" Su Jin stared at Cong Li with expectant eyes.

"It's okay, why don't you try a bite?" Cong Li swallowed a mouthful of charred and hard fish piece by sheer willpower, and said with a smile that was uglier than crying.

"I have another one, I'll eat this one." Su Jin said as he took a bite of the fish in his hand.

As expected, all his previous determination collapsed in an instant. He revealed an expression uglier than crying and spat out all the fish in his mouth.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Cong Li asked, imitating his example.

"It's so disgusting. I'm sorry. It must be hard for you to eat in the city. Why don't you just eat it raw?" Su Jin showed an expression that showed understanding for Cong Li.

"Why don't we use a single oven to grill the fish!" Cong Li suggested.

"Is it okay? Have you passed the exam before?" Su Jin couldn't help asking.

"It should have been successful, but the quality of my master's furnace is not very good." Cong Li said righteously.

"Let's start. I'll help you cook. We will definitely be able to eat delicious sea fish." Su Jin immediately began to prepare the grilled fish.

Cong Li also began to confidently find a furnace suitable for grilling fish, and the two of them began to work on it.

The next morning...

In the temporary wooden house where Helanxi stayed, she saw a room full of fish paste, and two persons, one big and one small, Congli and Sujin.

"Girl, wake up, wake up quickly!" He Lanxi stepped forward and patted Cong Li gently.

Cong Li slowly opened his eyes and saw the familiar person in front of him. He was so happy that he couldn't help but shout, "Uncle Helan?"

"Uncle?" He Lanxi stared at the girl in front of her carefully, but she didn't seem to know her.

"I'm Cong Li!" Cong Li wanted to cry but had no tears. After they blew up two alchemy furnaces in succession last night, they didn't even see the shadow of fish meat. So they simply did nothing and lay down waiting to die.

"Cong Li? Aren't you a man? How did you become a woman again? Oh, you are a mermaid, you transformed, right? Do you like my Feng'er? Where is your immortal master?" He Lanxi asked a series of questions as soon as she recognized Cong Li.

"Uncle Helan, I'm starving. Can you give us something to eat?" Cong Li looked at Helan Xi pitifully and begged.

"...Oh." Although He Lanxi didn't quite understand why she made herself so miserable, she still brought the two of them back home.

Ying Niang brought out the steaming hot fish soup and corn cakes. Su Jin and Cong Li scooped up the food and started eating it like reincarnated evil spirits.

"What did they go through?" Ying Niang looked at He Lanxi in confusion.

"I don't know either. When I saw them in the cabin, it was full of fish paste. I heard that they used the immortal's alchemy furnace to roast fish, but it exploded and we got nothing to eat." He Lanxi explained to his wife in a low voice.

"You know, since they're both doing so badly, is our Feng'er doing pretty miserable too?" Ying Niang suddenly asked worriedly.

"It shouldn't be the case. Feng'er is very good at grilling fish. How could he get himself into such a mess?" He Lanxi's face was full of confidence when she talked about her son.

"You are right. Feng'er's grilled fish tastes better than yours. He wouldn't make himself so miserable." Ying Niang thought about it and decided to believe in her son's ability.

After Cong Li and Su Jin had eaten their fill, He Lanxi stepped forward and asked, "Cong Li, Feng'er left with you. Where is he now? When will he come back to see us?"

"Uncle, I don't know where Brother Helan is now. I just came out to find him." Cong Li stared at Helan Xi with innocent big eyes. She really didn't know where Helan Ruofeng was.

"What?" Now it was Helanxi and Ying Niang's turn to look at each other. They hadn't seen their son for several months and were somewhat worried.

"Uncle, Brother Helan is fine. He is with Taibu Xingjun and my master. And he has found his beloved Miss Xiaoyu, they are also together." Cong Li said this because he was afraid that Helan Xi and his wife would worry.

"Yes, Taibu Xingjun has a very high level of cultivation. Your son will definitely not be in danger if he is with him." Su Jin also echoed.

"He is with his beloved Xiaoyu?" He Lanxi got straight to the point. He vaguely remembered that the girl his son liked was called Zi Yan.

"Yes, Brother Helan likes Xiaoyu, so naturally he wants to be with Xiaoyu." Cong Li said again.

He Lanxi looked at his wife and felt a little happy for a moment.

Ying Niang also looked at her husband with satisfaction. She never thought that one day her son would be with the girl he loved.

"Is Xiaoyu cute? Who are her family members?" Ying Niang couldn't help asking. She really wanted to know what kind of girl her precious son liked.

"Xiao Yu, she, she only has herself." Cong Li suddenly found it difficult to speak. She had also heard about Yu Xiaobai's life story from Aji and Zhang Ma.

"What does it mean that she only has herself?" He Lanxi asked puzzledly.

"Xiao Yu, she is an orphan, and was raised by the high priest." Cong Li said with some embarrassment.

"In that case, this little fish is also a poor guy." He Lanxi couldn't help but sigh.

"My husband, it's okay. If Xiaoyu marries our Feng'er, I will love her as my own daughter and will not let her feel lonely." Ying Niang gently raised her hand to comfort He Lanxi.

"Yes, my wife, as long as she comes to our home, I will love her like a daughter." He Lanxi patted his wife's back gently and comforted her.

Seeing how loving and kind-hearted He Lanxi and his wife were, Cong Li couldn't help but feel relieved for Yu Xiaobai.

"Cong Li, we originally came here to look for Immortal Lord Xiaobai and the others. Since these two are Helan Ruofeng's parents, doesn't that mean you and I have been looking in the wrong direction?" Su Jin realized the problem belatedly and asked.

"Oh, right. I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me." Cong Li patted his head belatedly and asked He Lanxi, "Uncle, has He Lan ever come back?"

"He hasn't come back since you left together last time." He Lanxi replied.

"In that case, we were indeed going in the wrong direction." Cong Li had to admit that he and Su Jin had indeed taken the wrong path.

"Cong Li, why did you two come back here? Are you going back to Biluo Sea to see your parents?" He Lanxi knew Cong Li's true identity and asked curiously.

"No, we want to find my master, Taibu Xingjun, and Brother Helan." Cong Li answered truthfully.

"Cong Li, this place is not far from the Biluo Sea. Do you want to go home and take a look?" Su Jin looked at Cong Li and asked worriedly.

"My parents can be seen at any time. The priority now is to find my master, as well as Helan, Xiaoyu and others." Although Cong Li missed her parents, she was more worried about Helan Ruofeng, Bai Qiyang and his group.

After all, Yu Xiaobai's identity will attract the attack from the Immortal Sect, and Helan Ruofeng will definitely be implicated. What the people in the Priest's Mansion said may not be the truth.
