--- Chapter 297 ---
While Yu Long and Huan Caiyi were busy in the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley, the Illusory Demon Realm was in shambles.
The treason of Duke Huai Palace and Duke Ming's death shook everyone like a thunderclap. It was too sudden.
However, facts don't care about feelings.
Not to mention, Duke Ming's vile acts toward the Demon Emperor and Little Demon Emperor were exposed, making nearly everyone on the continent furious.
To them, the Demon Emperor is a wise and benevolent ruler. Under his banner, many races could live with each other peacefully.
Even though Little Demon Emperor is a bit more playful than the Demon Emperor, he's still a worthy heir with immense potential that everyone likes.
Yet the Demon Emperor and Little Demon Emperor were played to death by this person!How could they not be angry?
Thankfully, Duke Ming's execution is near.
At the Demon Imperial City.
Several demons and other races are repairing the wall destroyed by the Heavenly King of Stone. After watching Huan Caiyi fight the Heavenly Kings bravely, they couldn't help but feel relieved.
After all, who doesn't want to live under a strong tree?
If they live under such a massive shade, their lives and well-being would be bright.
They recalled Huan Caiyi's cold and tyrannic temperament but hurriedly shook their heads. Now that the truth was revealed, they knew their empress was actually depressed.
The disappearance of the Little Demon Emperor on the night of their wedding night is simply traumatic. Any woman would be devastated by such an event.
No wonder Huan Caiyi became heartless. She's closing herself from the outside world, becoming uncaring and unsympathetic toward others.
Thinking about it, Huan Caiyi only gave them a monetary penalty, such as resource deprivation, and granted death to those who deserved it.
A handsome youth in blue walked in the bustling street of Demon Imperial City, calmly listening to a fascinating tale of the One Hundred Years' Reign Ceremony. Even then, the recent events were a bit harder to swallow.
Beside the youth is an elven beauty. She has a proud figure wrapped in green, long blonde hair, green eyes, and eye-catching long ears.
She looks 90% similar to the Greatest Ambition Under Heaven, the Elf Clan's Patriarch. Well, except more feminine.
Yup, she's his daughter. Number Seven Under Heaven!
The elf girl glanced at the handsome youth, "Yun Xiao, why the long face?"
"Aren't you supposed to be happy knowing the Demon King Yun Canghai's return?"
The youth sighed, "Seven, it's easy for you to say that, but Grandpa Yun has no blood relation to me. All this time, I thought I was weak and unworthy of the Yun Family's Young Master title."
"I trained every day, tearing my body apart, sweating blood and tears to grow strong enough not to make my parents proud."
"However, learning the truth that I got swapped when I was a baby and actually adopted..."
"Simply put, it's too much."
The elf girl pouted, "They are still your parents! They have watched you grow from baby till now, and I'm sure they have developed familial love toward you."
"Uncle and Auntie would act as if nothing happened."
"But Yun Che..." Yun Xiao mumbled helplessly. He didn't know how to face this stepbrother.
Yun Che has lived as him for nearly two decades.
The same goes for Yun Xiao. He has lived as Yun Che for nearly two decades.
"Yun Che this, Yun Che that." Seven placed her hands on her hip.
"It's not about him, it's about you."
"Stop being pussy and straighten your back like a young master of the Yun Family should be!"
Hearing this, Yun Xiao couldn't help but blush slightly. The onlookers also gave them a weird look.
Some children even pointed their fingers at Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao gave Number Seven Under Heaven a curt look. He sighed and grabbed her arm, dragging him to the Yun Family.
"Hey, hey! Where are you dragging me?" Seven was dumbfounded.
Yun Xiao ignored the elf girl and hurriedly brought her to the Yun Family, and as expected, even the guards gave them a weird look.
After walking for a few seconds, they arrived at a calm-looking courtyard and heard a peal of joyful laughter.
Yun Xiao heaved a sigh and walked inside with the elf girl.
His arrival was not without notice.
Yun Qinghong is currently sitting with his wife, Mu Yurou. Opposite to them is Yun Che and a mummy-looking Yun Changhai.
"Ah, An'er, you're back!" Yun Qinghong couldn't help but smile.
Mu Yurou also smiled at her son. To her, Yun Xiao is no different than her real son. After all, she has watched this youth grow from small till now. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Above all else, they also felt thankful to Yun Xiao's biological parents for proposing such a wild idea to save Yun Che's life back then. If they hadn't brought Yun Xiao to the Illusory Demon Realm years ago, they are afraid the Four Sacred Grounds and Duke Ming might have noticed something amiss.
Greeted with such a warm welcome, Yun Xiao couldn't help but feel complicated.
These two are his parents!
But Yun Xiao must draw a line now.
Yun Xiao clenched his fist and forced a smile, "Uncle, Aun-!"
"Don't finish those words!" Yun Canghai suddenly roared, causing the courtyard to shake violently.
"You, kid, are the Yun Family's precious benefactor!"
"Qinghong and Yurou have raised you like you're their own child."
"Don't think you don't deserve your position because of your real identity!"
"If you think otherwise, you're ungrateful toward your real parents, them, your grandpa back at Profound Sky Continent, and ME!"
"Call them dad and mom as you should!" Yun Canghai glared at Yun Xiao with a deep look.
Yun Canghai felt ashamed. He was an old ghost who was one step into a coffin a while ago. If not for Yu Long, he wouldn't be here at all.
He felt he owed the Xiao Clan, particularly Yun Xiao's parents and Xiao Lie, a lot of debt.
Xiao Lie and Xiao Lingxi have raised Yun Che despite their difficulty. Their strength and resources are nothing compared to the Yun Family, but Yun Che can grow into the person he is now.
Yun Che is safe and healthy!
Yun Che calmly looked at this sight and stood up. He walked to Yun Xiao and suddenly bowed toward him.
"Brother Xiao, thank you for helping my parents. You might think getting raised by them is shameful, but it's not."
"Truthfully, to them, you are their last straw and hope."
"Without you, I'm afraid my mother will have no hope to live..."
"You're a sunshine in their lives!"
Yun Qinghong held his wife's hand and added, "That's right, An'er."
"You're our sunshine in this bleak world."
"An'er, mother will always love you..." Mu Yurou softly uttered with all her heart.
"So, thank you for everything!" Yun Qinghong, Mu Yurou, Yun Che, and Yun Canghai said simultaneously.
Tears rolled from Yun Xiao's eyes. He quickly wiped them and kneeled before Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou, "Yes, Father, Mother!"
"Good, good." Yun Canghai laughed joyfully. "From now on, you may call me Grandpa."
Yun Che smiled and helped Yun Xiao stand up, "Brother Xiao, we might not be able to become blood brothers. But I will swear that Yun Xiao is my sworn brother for eternity!"
Seven also felt emotional watching this. She sobbed but then watched Yun Xiao looking at her.
Yun Xiao opened his mouth, "Father, Mother, I want to marry Number Seven Under Heaven!"
"Please give us your blessing!"
"Hahaha, good, Father will agree with you." Yun Qinghong smiled.
"Mm, Mom will give you a blessing too." Mu Yurou added.
Seven cried and hugged Yun Xiao, "Xiao, you're the best!"
That day, the Yun Family had a joyful atmosphere.
What do you think?
