stretched out his arms to embrace the grandmother.In this moment, I always seem to see things incorrectly.He didn't seem like a man in his twilight years, but rather a man full of rage yet devoted to..."Stop—" Stop.

The moment I opened my mouth to stop him, Damo grabbed hold of "My Brother's" robe.

"My brother," for some reason, suddenly stopped the kick he was about to make. He squeezed my hand tightly, as if his body was desperately restraining something.

My bones are almost crushed.

Luckily, he didn't kick him out. The furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and he looked down coldly at Da Mao who was trying to crawl up and hug him.

Da Mao's chubby legs rubbed against his shins a few times, of course he couldn't climb up, he could only stare longingly and whimper "ba ba".

I nervously watched the demon lord beside me. His brows furrowed first, then gradually relaxed, and in that moment, the aura he had gathered dissipated without a trace.

He bent down and lifted Da Mao by the back of his shirt.

I gestured with my hand to take Big Mao, he looked at me and handed Big Mao to a maidservant.

"Take good care of it. You're responsible for the hot and cold food." He said coldly.

The maidservant didn't even dare to raise her head. She raised both hands above her head, bent over and bowed to receive the big hair, also holding it high. She took a few steps back before hurriedly carrying the big hair to the side.

"Give me Da Mao!" I protested earnestly.

"...You made something for him to eat" He gave me a cold look.

I was stunned. I didn't even know where the kitchen was in this place, and besides, besides, is there any normal food here

I remember giving Huiqing and the bald head just water and fruit, right

"Don't feed him strange things! Children's stomachs are weak, they can't eat raw or cold food, and even water needs to be boiled—" I was getting impatient. I definitely couldn't rely on these people to take care of the child.

I've seen the paper servant girls in the Heavenly Palace of Rising Clouds and Mist. They are first-class when it comes to obedience and execution, and they're also great with kids. But you want them to make fireworks snacks

They must be about to show their true forms if they see fire!

"Cut the crap, you can't even save yourself, and you have so many demands" He snorted coldly, grabbed me by the arm, and dragged me out.

This palace is very imposing, but I always feel it's missing some celestial charm.

However, do demons have the auspicious air of immortals I am inexperienced and dare not make a judgment.

I have so many questions I want to ask. What are you playing at Bring my brother back! Put us back where we belong...

But when it comes to my lips, I feel it's just superfluous talk.

These deities and demons rarely bother to explain their actions to mortals.

I wonder where Jiang Qiyun is now. Since his dharma form has appeared, he should know my current situation...

"Look." The "me brother" beside me suddenly grinned, the expression was so familiar, I was a little confused.

Unconsciously, he was brought to a high platform in the city. It seemed like an observation tower, a large rectangular pavilion, from which one could almost see the entire city at a glance.

Black and gold intertwined, the "moon" in the sky was so large, it illuminated the outskirts of the city with a vast expanse of white reflection.

He pointed to the mountains that stretched endlessly into the horizon, uncertain of their actual distance. Above that mountain range, there was a massive, swirling black cloud.

"That's the space we just opened up," he said with a touch of pride. "Demons like us, our level, always have many restrictions when entering the mortal world. But think about it the other way around, for a mortal to fall into the demon realm, that's much easier."

In the classic texts about the Taishang Xuanmen, there are only a few mentions of demon emperors. I can't remember exactly, it seems that the South Heaven Demon Emperor is known for causing fear and anger in people, depleting their lung qi

“......For those who have learned the art of scholarship and practice insight, they often attract many demons' annoyance, thus causing their accomplishments to decline. For example, when seeing beautiful spirits, it is best not to look too closely. They are often the Three Officials, Five Emperors, Jade Boys, and Jade Girls, observing people's merits and demerits.” He slowly said: “There are also clear and pure demons of good fortune who change their forms to deceive people. They may appear as ghosts or monsters, transforming into hundreds of demonic tests, wanting people to fail their great undertakings—"

This is a classic saying, I frowned and took the last sentence: "...and among relatives, obstacles are caused by demons, wanting to disrupt the path and ruin it."

So I chose Big Mao, using Big Mao to lure my brother's reckless abandon, and then making me reckless too.

"You cultivators of the mortal realm, even if you can transcend the worldly desires and attachments, it is rare to be able to sever all emotional bonds." He grinned.

"So what You went through all this trouble just to prevent me from cultivating" I asked, puzzled.

He's really bad, he only needs to occupy my brother's body and control Big Mao, I can't move an inch...... Even if I'm driven away, I'll still find a way to come back here!

Besides, there's a buy-one-get-two-free promotion going on now, which includes Huaiqing and Xiaog Tou.

He let out a cold laugh, shooting me a look with my brother's trademark smirk: "What are you Worth all this effort"

Yes! What am I, some big shot Just let us go already. It doesn't matter if our cultivation regresses...

Before a word could be spoken, a vortex of black clouds on the horizon began to stir slowly.

I am far away from there, I can only see slow movements, indicating that the situation is already very intense. If I were closer, it would probably be a scene of turbulent winds and clouds, with the sky changing color.

The "him" beside me grinned, his eyes gleaming with a sharp, crimson light.

"Humph… All sentient beings who have not yet left the mortal realm, both gods and demons, will enter the demonic trial…"

What does that mean My heart skipped a beat, I strained my eyes to look at the distant sky—

The wind howled like a mournful flute, swirling fallen flower branches and leaves across the city outskirts.

Under the illumination of the enormous moon, it seemed like a frenzied snowfall.

Above the center of the vortex, streaks of gray-black mist were being driven back, as if a flame had scorched a hole in a window pane.

A sliver of silver light flashed briefly at the mouth of the cave, and the wind that blew through it grew even fiercer, stinging against the face.

This feeling… I feel like I’ve experienced it before…

This familiar wind, cold and biting, sobs like a mourner, seeming to carry with it resentment and the detachment of life's endless cycle.

"…Qi Yun!" I whispered, "Could it be... your goal is him"

If you were to say that there was someone who remained tied to the mortal world, it would be Jiang Qiyun, the god who never left the mortal realm.

As for cultivating immortality, I'm still quite inexperienced. If I rush things, not only will I fail to achieve anything, but I might even fall into demonic obsession. All I can do is diligently cultivate within the confines of the mortal world.

Jiang Qiyun frequently traveled between the yin and yang realms. Even with a marriage pact with the mortal world, his involvement with the mundane was undeniable.

As soon as his voice fell, a sharp gust of wind like a blade suddenly struck.

We are in the line of fire on this high platform, there's nowhere to hide in this open pavilion with its four exposed sides.

This wind tore at my face, and also ripped at my brother's face.

I felt a tingling pain on my face. I raised my hand to wipe it, and there was a trace of blood. As I turned my head, I saw my brother with eyes that seemed otherworldly, a smirk playing on his lips— a defiant, cocky grin.

"It's finally here."

Who's here Jiang Qiyun is here! I was overjoyed, but when I saw a cut on my brother's face, blood trailing down his cheek, I immediately reached out and wiped it away.

He stared, then glanced at me coldly with a sneer and said, “You, you’re quite the bait.”

Before I could retort, a silver light shot out like lightning, instantly rushing outside the city—
