19, Chapter Nineteen(1/2)

The snow lasted longer this year than in previous years, and the white snow fell for three days. There was no sign of it getting smaller, but it was getting heavier and heavier.

Almost the entire demon world was covered in pure white, turning into a world wrapped in plain silver.

The old wooden door suddenly squeaked open, and snowflakes wrapped in the storm flew into the house. The cold air entered the house, shaking the dim candlelight.

The lifeless silence inside the house suddenly broke, and a rough voice sounded dissatisfied, "Who is it?"

Two sharp and curved horns were exposed from behind the tattered wooden counter. Then, the stout middle-aged male demon stood up and looked at the wooden door that was fluttering in the wind with a pair of copper eyes, looking fierce.

This is an inn in the demon world. It is located in the wilderness and is deserted. It has snowed for several days and the ground has accumulated a thick layer.

At this time, the weather is harsh, and all the fairies with low cultivation levels are staying in their lairs for the winter. Those with advanced spiritual practices will not stay here unless they pass by this place.

The owner is a buffalo spirit who has cultivated in the late stage of transformation. He has opened an inn here for 500 years.

Every year when there is ice and snow, the business in the store is at its worst. Sometimes from the first snowfall to the time when the snow melts, there is not a single new customer. Therefore, the owner basically stays in the store and sleeps through the winter.

This year was just like usual. The shop owner had been sleeping soundly on the floor behind the counter for several days when he was suddenly awakened by a strange noise. The buffalo spirit was immediately dissatisfied.

The store door is wide open, and the cold wind blows in with snowflakes, taking away the temperature in the store, making the buffalo spirit instantly cool down.

When he stood up from behind the counter, he was unusually tall, and the flickering candlelight cast a huge black shadow.

Before the visitor stepped into the store door, the bright red clothes were blown in by the cold wind first. A pair of black boots stepped into the house, and the wooden door behind him closed automatically.

His eyes moved upward, and a handsome face suddenly came into his eyes.

With this person's arrival, the dark and dilapidated lobby became brighter.

The buffalo spirit felt the danger and pressure inexplicably, and his irritated mind suddenly came to his senses. He walked around the counter and came out, showing a simple and friendly smile.

"Is this fellow Taoist staying in a hotel?"

Generally, those with such perfect human forms are demons with strong cultivation and cannot be offended or offended. The attitude of the buffalo spirit became more respectful.

No wonder he didn't sense this monster before it arrived.

The male demon glanced at the dilapidated store, frowned slightly, but still said: "Is there any food for the little bastard?"

Little cub? The buffalo spirit was stunned for a moment. Before he could answer, he saw the red mass on the male monster's chest move, and then a delicate and beautiful young face was revealed.

The buffalo spirit took a closer look and saw that the male demon was holding a baby girl in his arms. She was wearing a cloak with a hat, which made the baby even more beautiful.

At that moment, the buffalo spirit thought that the male demon had kidnapped a human cub from the human world, but when he took a closer look, he realized that it was also a little fairy.

What a delicate and adorable little cub.

The breath of the buffalo essence was unconsciously softer, and the rough voice also dropped a few notes.

"Yes, there is a spirit egg in the store that can be used to make custard for the little boy to eat."

With that said, he used magic to clean the tables and chairs that had been vacant for a long time, and invited the male demon to sit down.

Lu Qingyu did not refuse and sat down directly.

"Second brother! We have a visitor!"

When the buffalo spirit saw his fellow Taoist sitting down, he shouted to the kitchen, only to hear a shrill response from the kitchen: "I know."

The little boy couldn't sit on the stool independently, so he sat on the male demon's lap. However, after sitting down, he could only see a ceiling.

The man glanced at the table, performed a dust removal technique, then picked up the little boy and placed it on the table.

The little boy looked at the man angrily with his pink face, and his big round eyes seemed to be on fire.

"Are you still angry? Pearl?"

One big and one small is Lu Yaoyao and Lu Qingyu.

Lu Yaoyao found that her father had been driving with her for a long time. She had not seen him for most of the day. Instead, the scenery around her became more and more unfamiliar. No matter how slow her reaction was, she still understood.

Her father really took her away from him.

Lu Yaoyao was angry for a long time because of this.

She doesn't understand why her father runs away, she wants her father!

It's a pity that she argued so fiercely with her father that he pretended not to hear.

Upon hearing his father's question, Lu Yaoyao turned around angrily, leaving him with a small ball-like back.

Lu Qingyu stretched out his finger and poked her back.

"Are you really angry?"

"Do you want him instead of dad?" As he said this, Lu Qingyu's face darkened.

Lu Yaoyao turned her head, snarled a few times, and turned away again.

She wants a father and a father!

"He or I, you can only choose one." Lu Qingyu said coolly.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ahhhhh!"

"Greedy little brat, forget about him from now on."

Lu Qingyu finally found an opening and ran out. How could he possibly go back? This little brat was a monster to him.

He is not worried. No matter how smart the little cub is, it is just a cub. After a while, she will forget the experience of the past few months and only have him as the closest demon.

He knew that Yao Jiuxiao must be looking for them everywhere, maybe chasing them from behind.

They have been rivals for many years and know each other best. Once he exposes his traces, Yao Jiuxiao will be able to catch up immediately.

So Lu Qingyu covered their tracks along the way.

The restrictions on his body that suppressed his cultivation had not yet been released, and Lu Qingyu was still in the territory of the demon world. In order to avoid attracting the attention of other demon kings and humans, he sent a message to his subordinates asking them to wait at the junction of the three realms.

Although the Broken Screen Mountains are located in a remote location in the Demon Realm, they are not bordered by other realms, and one has to walk quite a distance before reaching the edge.

The closest boundary is the human race boundary, which does not border the demon race.

If Lu Qingyu wants to avoid Yao Jiuxiao who is pursuing him and successfully return to the demon world, he must first pass through the human realm.

When he meets the demon clan members, he will immediately lift the restraints on him. Even if Yao Jiuxiao chases after him, he will not be able to do anything to him.

Lu Qingyu had already planned that when he returned to the demon world, he would seal it immediately. No matter how powerful Yao Jiuxiao was, he would not be able to open the barrier immediately.

As long as he is given ten to twenty years, he can raise the little cub to maturity in the demon world. By then, everything will be settled and Yao Jiuxiao will be helpless.

It just happened that the weather was bad at this time, which affected his ability to travel. With his current cultivation level, he could not shrink to an inch.

Moreover, this little brat is throwing tantrums all day long, which makes Lu Qingyu even more unhappy.

Lu Qingyu poked the little boy's back with his fingertips, "Okay, don't lose your temper. Daddy's patience is limited. If you really make Daddy angry..."

Lu Yaoyao turned around, his bright black eyes filled with mist.

Then he leaned back and lay on the table, a string of tears falling down.

She wants her father to woo woo woo...

The little boy didn't cry loudly, but cried quietly at this moment, slapping his eyes from time to time, which made Lu Qingyu frown and feel irritable.

"Stop crying, he or daddy, you can only choose one."

"Wow……"

Why? Weren’t you always with your father before? Why not now?

Lu Yaoyao was extremely sad.

She wants her father, and she also wants her father...

Lu Qingyu was even more irritated and wanted to coax the little kid, but Yao Jiuxiao had always been responsible for coaxing the child. His attempts to coax him had no effect and he didn't want to play with him anymore.

The kid is trouble.

The buffalo spirit listened for a while and then understood the situation.

This is the tragedy of a Taoist couple having a falling out and the child having to live with only one of the parents!

The buffalo spirit looked at such a young cub, looking so smart. How could a parent like this bear to make the little cub sad?

However, as monsters, they were used to doing whatever they wanted. There were falling outs between the Taoist couples, and many of them turned swords on each other, but they just took pity on the little brat.

The buffalo spirit couldn't bear it and couldn't help but suggest: "This fellow Taoist, if you and your Taoist partner are not at a life-and-death situation, why not consider raising the cubs together first, and then separate later if the relationship is still weak?"

Little do cubs know anything. In their cognition, their parents are the closest to them. Being separated from either parent will be detrimental to their growth.

What's more, cubs are rare, and they have a long life. It's rare for Taoist monks to have quarrels with each other right after they give birth to cubs.

This is the first time I’ve seen a buffalo spirit.

Lu Qingyu: "..." He looked at the buffalo spirit with a calm gaze, but it somehow made the buffalo spirit feel dangerous and his whole body became alert.

Lu Yaoyao blinked, did her father and dad separate after their relationship faded? Why? She didn't see her father and dad quarreling so fiercely!

At this time, a skinny little goblin came out holding a tray with a large bowl still steaming.

"The egg custard is ready."

This is a weasel spirit with pointy ears and monkey cheeks, and its appearance is unattractive. However, it is in the middle stage of demon elixir cultivation and has transformed into a complete human form.
To be continued...
