As expected, under the guidance of the Demon God, Liu Lanyan slowly recalled what had happened.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he exclaimed, "I've regained my strength?"
Before meeting the demon god, she discovered a hidden power within her body, different from the power she possessed as a child. This power was far more formidable, yet she instinctively felt a sense of rejection towards it.
I don't know why, but I just feel a strong aversion to it.
Mo Yun smiled and nodded: "Yes, I felt your power."
So that's how it is. This method will indeed allow the demon god to find it, but the problem is...
"What if my power doesn't return?" Liu Lanyan felt a chill in her heart. If her hidden power didn't appear, would they have missed each other in this lifetime?
After hearing Liu Lanyan finish speaking, Mo Yun stared at her intently.
Mo Yun's eyes were as black as ink, as deep as a pool, as if burning with intense black flames, threatening to incinerate her.
Liu Lanyan felt a sudden dryness in her mouth and swallowed involuntarily. What was wrong with the Demon God?
"No, it won't happen." Mo Yun said with certainty, even more so than before, and with more confidence than when he believed in his own strength.
"Even if you reject your own power, you will recover, because you said you would meet me."
Mo Yun spoke these words very slowly, one word at a time, with utmost solemnity, as if they were the condensation of the deepest blood in his heart.
Liu Lanyan said nothing, only feeling her heart melt into a pool of water, warm and gentle, unable to say anything, finally turning into a sigh.
"Look, you're here now, aren't you?" Mo Yun hugged Liu Lanyan tightly, rested his chin on the top of her head, and said softly with a satisfied sigh.
Liu Lanyan leaned against the demon god's chest, breathing in his faint, refreshing scent, and muttered, "A thousand years have passed..."
Isn't this taking too long?
"A thousand years?" Mo Yun chuckled softly, his chest trembling with his laughter. "What is a thousand years if I can wait for you?"
"Don't worry, I'll try my best to remember!" Liu Lanyan assured her. Since the feelings were so deep, she had no reason to forget. There must be some reason why she couldn't remember.
Liu Lanyan's assurance made Mo Yun laugh: "Silly girl, you'll remember when the time comes."
"Hmm." Liu Lanyan thought about it and agreed. Since her former strength was slowly recovering, why should she rush it?
"I wonder how the Demon Lord and the others will handle this situation." Liu Lanyan felt a headache coming on just thinking about Yu Lijing's appearance.
If even her husband has this attitude, why did she get married in the first place?
Mo Yun released Liu Lanyan and said with a smile, "Don't worry about this matter. The Demon Lord and Yu Lijing have been through so many years together, they certainly won't have any problems when there is danger in the Three Realms."
"Yu Lijing is so domineering, it's a wonder the Demon Lord can put up with her." Thinking of the scene in the side hall just now, even as an outsider, she felt disheartened.
After so many years of marriage and even having children, he still doesn't remember the Demon Lord's name.
"Back then, the Demon Lord was quite the star in the Demon Realm," Mo Yun recalled slowly. "At that time, the Demon Lord really liked Yu Lijing."
"As for how they got married, I don't know. But we can probably guess that it's because the Demon Lord is strong enough to support the Demon Realm." This can also be inferred from the conversation between the Demon Lord and Yu Lijing just now.
"Weren't you there when they got married?" Liu Lanyan looked at the Demon God strangely, thinking he was very familiar with the Demon Realm.
Mo Yun shook his head with amusement: "I wasn't in the demon realm at that time. Apart from my initial interaction with Yu Lijing, by the time I returned, the three realms were already in chaos."
"What happens to them is none of our business. Once this matter in the Three Realms is resolved, we'll leave." Mo Yun had no curiosity about Yu Lijing's affairs and didn't want to get involved.
It's best if they handle their own internal problems.
He only needs to pay attention to the issues between the immortal and demon realms now, and that's enough.
If he wasn't mistaken, the realms of immortals and demons would soon take action.
He had enough to think about, so he didn't have time to pay attention to Yu Lijing's affairs.
"What if Yu Jinshuo does something underhanded?" Liu Lanyan asked worriedly, fearing that while the Demon God was fighting on the front lines, internal strife would be brewing in the Demon Realm.
“The Demon Lord will not agree.” Mo Yun smiled and said with certainty, “Even Yu Lijing will not agree.”
"Are you so sure?" Liu Lanyan looked at the Demon God strangely. How could he know Yu Lijing's thoughts?
“You can tell from Yu Lijing’s reaction,” Mo Yun explained to Liu Lanyan. “Why did she seal herself in the forbidden area? It wasn’t just for cultivation, but to control herself.”
"She knew that she was not in her right mind and could not rule the demon realm, so she married the Demon Lord, who was the number one person in the demon realm back then, and handed over the position of Demon Lord."
"The Demon Lord has a bond with her because of the child Yu Xinyi. In addition, the Demon Lord has always had a passionate love for her. No matter what, it is destined that the Demon Lord will wholeheartedly protect the Demon Realm for her."
"She was willing to marry a man she didn't like for the sake of the demon realm, which shows that in Yu Lijing's heart, the safety of the demon realm is more important than anything else."
"This time, do you think Yu Lijin left the forbidden area because of Yu Jinshuo? She was worried that after the Demon Lord eliminated Yu Jinshuo, the Demon Realm would be in chaos. After all, at that time, no one knew that Yu Xinyi had such strength to inherit the position of Demon Lord."
After Mo Yun finished speaking, he looked at Liu Lanyan and found her deep in thought. He asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"It's so pitiful." Liu Lanyan looked up and said sympathetically, "Yu Lijing only has eyes for the demon realm. For the demon realm, she can sacrifice her own happiness, her own family, and her loved ones..."
"What's the point of living?" Liu Lanyan couldn't understand Yu Lijing's thinking at all. "Is it because of her responsibilities as the Demon Lord? Does being the Demon Lord have to be like this?"
"That's not right either. The current Demon Lord isn't heartless towards family. He treats Yu Xinyi very well." Liu Lanyan couldn't understand why Yu Lijing was so ruthless.
One became the Demon Lord during a time of turmoil in the demon realm for her sake; the other took on the heavy responsibility of Demon Lord for him, never seeking out any other woman, never remarrying, and devoting all his efforts to raising Yu Xinyi.
How could Yu Lijin keep ignoring a man like that?
"Who knows what she's thinking?" Mo Yun's attention wasn't on Yu Lijing. "That's their problem. Let's rest first."
