Chapter 4

 

Si Lan suddenly felt a tingling sensation at the tip of his nose. He adjusted his azure robe, muttering, “Little one, are you talking behind my back?”

 

Little White Dragon twitched at the corner of its mouth, ignoring Si Lan.

 

Throughout the journey, its gaze had been hovering around Si Lan’s skin.

 

The person before it not only had remarkably fair skin, so pale that the blue veins were clearly visible, but also had no strange odor like that of a wild chicken. Instead, a faint fragrance emanated from him, making it ravenously hungry.

 

Its injuries had been healing quickly for the past two days, thanks to the daily bloodsucking sessions it had with Si Lan. However, today it hadn’t had a single drop of blood, and it was starting to get impatient.

 

Just as it was about to extend its fangs, Si Lan suddenly descended from mid-air and landed on the ground. It stumbled out of Si Lan’s embrace, and Si Lan quickly caught it.

 

Its two still-extended fangs bumped against Si Lan’s bone, causing a sharp pain that made stars dance before its eyes. It twisted its head, glaring fiercely at Si Lan.

 

Foolish Demon Lord!

 

However, Si Lan smiled tenderly and stroked Little White Dragon’s head. “Does it hurt? Don’t reach your fangs out so carelessly next time.” After saying this, he furrowed his brow and examined the two fangs seriously. “Could it be that you’re too young and haven’t learned to retract your fangs yet?”

 

“…” The Little White Dragon.

 

Si Lan affectionately patted Little White Dragon’s head. His young husband was still so inexperienced, unable to do anything. His responsibilities were getting a bit heavy.

 

The two of them had landed at the foot of Xuanling Mountain, where the human world and the cultivation world met. People bustled along the streets, and the bustling atmosphere lingered.

 

In the distance, Xuanling Mountain towered majestically, like a colossal mountain god, guarding this peaceful land.

 

On the mountain peaks, ethereal immortal palaces were nestled among the clouds.

 

A peculiar plant enveloped Xuanling Mountain, occupying one-third of its mass. On its stems and roots, clusters of red flowers bloomed, layer upon layer, densely packed, stretching from the clouds to the foot of the mountain, resembling a winding river of blood.

 

Si Lan had never seen such a strange plant and couldn’t help but look at it a few more times.

 

When he turned his head, he found that Little White Dragon was also curiously staring at the plant. After a while, Little White Dragon squatted at his feet, staring intently at a wild grass in a stone crevice.

 

Si Lan recognized this wild grass.

 

Si Lan cleared his throat, bent down, and said, “This is Luo Yu grass. It has strong vitality and can live for decades…”

 

Before he could finish his sentence, a black boot happened to step on the Luo Yu grass, crushing it.

 

“…”

 

“May I ask if you are Lord Si Lan?” The owner of the black boots extended a respectful greeting, excitement in their voice.

 

Si Lan looked up and saw a cultivator in a purple and white robe. Behind him, dozens of similarly dressed cultivators followed. Si Lan nodded slightly.

 

“Lord Si Lan, I am Xuyi, a disciple of Xuanling Sect. We have come to welcome you on behalf of our Sect Master.”

 

Si Lan didn’t expect that he and Little White Dragon had just arrived at Xuanling Mountain, and Lou Yuqing had already detected his presence. It seemed that Lou Yuqing had made significant progress in his cultivation.

 

“Please lead the way.”

 

Little White Dragon, on the other hand, immediately lay back on the stone steps, seemingly fascinated by something again.

 

Si Lan picked up Little White Dragon, who was furious about being disturbed, waving its dragon claws in protest. Si Lan paid no attention to its struggles and tucked it into his arms.

 

Xuanling Mountain had a total of 678 steps. Typically, cultivators would fly on their swords, but Si Lan expressed his desire to enjoy the scenery along the way. Therefore, Xu Yili and the others accompanied him, explaining the sights and customs of Xuanling Mountain.

 

As he got closer, he noticed that the strange plant on Xuanling Mountain, with its red flowers in full bloom, emitted a peculiar fragrance, tinged with a faint scent of blood. However, this blood-like odor was not human blood; it was the blood of snakes.

 

“That plant is…”

 

“It’s the Tengying Flower that our Sect Master brought back from Shacha sea. Lord Si Lan, don’t be deceived by its appearance; it’s only a little over half a year old,” Xu Yili explained with a friendly smile.

 

Si Lan exclaimed in amazement, repeating, “Only a little over half a year…”

 

“Yes, our Sect Master said that Tengying can protect Xuanling Sect. At first, we disciples didn’t believe it, but some time ago, the snake clan from the Demon Realm attacked Xuanling Sect for no apparent reason. Thanks to Tengying’s help, we managed to repel the snake demons,” Xu Yili recalled the incident with a shiver. “When we regained our senses, the ground was covered in snake blood.”

 

Si Lan paused; he had been in seclusion and wasn’t aware of this significant event outside.

 

“Why did the snake demons attack Xuanling Sect?”

 

Xu Yili shook his head. “We don’t know.”

 

Si Lan didn’t say anything more, and Little White Dragon in his pocket seemed mysteriously quiet, likely tired of playing.

 

Upon reaching the mountaintop, Lou Yuqing didn’t come to meet Si Lan personally but had his disciples show him to a room for rest.

 

Si Lan couldn’t help but feel somewhat melancholic. In the past, when he came to Xuanling Sect, Lou Yuqing would immediately greet him. Now, he was treated like any other guest and assigned to a room. It seemed that after several decades apart, their relationship had grown distant.

 

In the evening, while Si Lan was meditating cross-legged, his stomach suddenly rumbled with hunger.

 

Xuanling Sect hadn’t sent any food, probably assuming that he was fasting and didn’t require a meal.

 

Si Lan opened his storage pouch. He had been in a hurry this time and only had a few wild fruits left inside.

 

Calling for Xuanling Sect disciples to prepare a meal for him in the middle of the night would be inappropriate. So, he decided to find something to eat outside. He pushed open the door, unsure which direction to go, when he suddenly heard voices ahead.

 

It was already late at night, and there were still people awake.

 

Si Lan approached quietly.

 

“On such a cold night, the Sect Master actually has us guarding the Demon Lord outside…” a purple-robed woman wearing a black wooden crown complained with a disgruntled expression.

 

Xu Yili hastily signaled for silence. “Shh, don’t complain.”

 

“Hmph, I’m going to say it. I don’t understand why the Sect Master invited him over. Won’t this make the cultivation world suspect that we, Xuanling Sect, are colluding with the demon race?”

 

“I heard that the Sect Master owes a life debt to Lord Si Lan.”

 

“But even so, we shouldn’t invite him openly. Besides, he has a bad reputation in the Demon Realm, having killed three wives on his wedding day. It’s bad luck.”

 

“What does luck have to do with it? Killing his own wives is one thing, but it doesn’t mean he’ll do the same to our Sect Master’s wives…”

 

“How can it not have anything to do with it? Killing wives is killing wives, there’s no distinction…” the woman in purple robes grumbled and leaned against the wooden door.

 

The door wasn’t very sturdy, and with a snap, it fell down, crashing to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.

 

In the hazy dust, Si Lan’s figure gradually became visible in the moonlight.

 

The woman in purple robes turned around, caught off guard when she saw Si Lan’s face. She was instantly dumbfounded, her face turning pale.

 

Xu Yili also stared with wide eyes, unable to speak for a moment.

 

The atmosphere became quite awkward, so awkward that Si Lan felt he should be hiding underground at this moment, not standing on the surface.

 

He envied the fallen door for a moment.

 

For a long time, no one spoke. Si Lan had to break the silence, “The moonlight is beautiful tonight.”

 

Xu Yili and the woman in purple robes looked up at the sky but didn’t see the moon, only a sky full of stars.

 

The atmosphere became even more awkward.

 

Xu Yili quickly regained his composure and apologized, saying that his junior sister was outspoken and would arrange for disciples to bring food to Si Lan immediately.

 

Si Lan graciously accepted and turned to leave.

 

As he closed the door, he faintly heard Xu Yili scolding the woman in purple robes.

 

The woman wasn’t convinced. “I didn’t do it on purpose, and everyone outside is saying the same things about him…”

 

Si Lan sighed softly and lay down on the bed.

 

Lying flat seemed to help alleviate his hunger.

 

“Little one, are you hungry?”

 

He reached into his pocket and realized that Little White Dragon had been sleeping soundly since the afternoon.

 

He checked its spiritual aura and, finding nothing wrong, felt relieved.

 

“Little one, are you going to take hundreds of years to grow up?”

 

If that were the case, he would have to bear the “infamous” label for centuries.

 

Life as a demon was challenging.

 

“Little one, you need to grow up quickly.”

 

Once it grew up, they would form a bond. By then, no one would call him a “wife-killer.” At that point, the mighty and domineering Heavenly Emperor would be his father-in-law. Even if his reputation as a wild chicken were revealed, no one would dare to mess with him.

 

Si Lan had already started daydreaming about the future when a hissing sound from outside interrupted his reverie. It sounded like footsteps, or perhaps scales scraping against tiles, and it startled him from his pleasant thoughts.

 

He thought it might be Xu Yili bringing food, so he didn’t think much of it and got up to open the door.

 

A massive blood-red eye spanned the doorway, with the iris narrowed into a black line, the white of the eye bloodshot.

 

Before Si Lan could react, the moment he opened the door and met the blood-red eye, he was already pulled into an illusory world.

Chapter 3

 

Probably sensing the murderous intent, Si Lan, who was half-asleep, restlessly turned over.

 

Haowei looked at Si Lan and said, “No need. He is still useful to me, and I plan to stay by his side for a while.” He needed Si Lan’s blood to heal his spiritual injury and to investigate the secret of the Flame Serpent.

 

The Flame Serpent had gone mad in the Demon Realm, and he suspected that the mysterious person who had injured him during his Heavenly Tribulation was from the Demon Realm, perhaps even the current Si Lan.

 

Thinking about this, Haowei narrowed his eyes and stared at Si Lan with a dangerous expression.

 

If it turned out to be Si Lan’s doing, he would pluck his feathers and stew him in a pot.

 

Seeing Haowei’s expression, Yuwudao couldn’t help but feel worried.

 

Initially, Haowei had transformed into a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth, then into an eight or nine-year-old child, and now he looked like a five or six-year-old. If this continued, who knew what he would become…

 

Moreover, after spending some time with Haowei, Yuwudao had noticed that when he transformed into a child, not only did his magical power weaken, but his mental age also decreased.

 

Yuwudao’s expression was conflicted, and after much hesitation, he finally told Haowei about the decrease in mental age and advised him to be cautious in the Demon Realm.

 

Haowei seemed almost incredulous and stared at Yuwudao with a frozen expression.

 

Has he decreased in mental age?

 

How was that possible?

 

Yuwudao sensed Haowei’s increasingly gloomy expression and quickly found an excuse to leave, taking away a drop of Si Lan’s blood and a feather without giving Haowei the opportunity to reprimand him.

 

“…” A Haowei with decreased mental age.

 

Si Lan, who was half-asleep, felt like he heard someone talking, and in a half-dreamy state, he felt something cold sliding over his skin, making his body shiver lightly. He subconsciously tucked the cold object into his arms, hugging it tightly.

 

When he was a child, his mother used to wrap her large wings around him, providing warmth.

 

The small creature suddenly stiffened in his arms, not moving and not struggling.

 

Si Lan had slept for two full days and nights before waking up. When he woke up, his head was still spinning, and he felt quite weak.

 

This wine was a bit too strong.

 

He couldn’t help but complain to himself, and as he sat up from the bed, he glanced at the fresh bloodstain on his wrist. Suddenly, he remembered something and hurriedly took out the small creature from his embrace.

 

Looking at the white bundle in his palm, he froze for a moment.

 

It wasn’t a dream!

 

He had actually soaked the Heavenly Emperor’s son!

 

The small white dragon was now lying limp, with two pink dragon horns sprouting from its head, and four plump little claws emerging beneath its white and silver scales. Its tail had split into several segments, and it now had a somewhat dragon-like appearance.

 

Si Lan reached out to sense its spiritual energy and found that its internal energy had become much more stable, and its breathing had become rhythmic. He couldn’t help but marvel at its remarkable recovery ability.

 

Indeed, a true dragon, capable of self-healing.

 

But he had completely forgotten why he had slept for two days and why there was fresh blood on his wrist.

 

He remembered that he had found this little white dragon on Qiongsha Island, and according to the words of that diviner, it was supposed to be his destined one…

 

He hesitated for a moment, as he compared the size of the small white dragon to himself. He was over a thousand years older than it, and he was of the same generation as its father, or even its grandfather.

 

Wouldn’t that make him a cradle robber, going for a sprout?

 

A somewhat embarrassed and awkward expression appeared on his face.

 

This didn’t seem very ethical.

 

But this small white dragon was the Heavenly Emperor’s son. If he marries it in the future…

 

He didn’t know what he was thinking, and his eyes showed a slight flicker.

 

Suddenly, he felt that having a husband who was over a thousand years younger than himself wasn’t a big deal.

 

“Being young has its advantages,” Si Lan said with a hint of a smile.

 

When the small white dragon woke up, it happened to meet Si Lan’s “deeply affectionate” gaze, and its golden eyes widened in inexplicable fear. It instinctively coiled its tail and tried to escape.

 

Si Lan, quick to react, caught the little white dragon’s two front paws and exclaimed, “Little one, you’re awake!”

 

The little white dragon looked at him with a blank expression.

 

“You can’t speak, can you? Right, you haven’t fully formed yet,” Si Lan mumbled to himself. He took some wild fruits from his storage bag and offered them to the little white dragon, looking eager, “Would you like something to eat?”

 

The little white dragon, upon hearing this, shifted its gaze to Si Lan’s wrist, instinctively swallowing its saliva.

 

Over the past two days, it had managed to recover quickly by drinking some of Si Lan’s blood.

 

Seeing it looking at the wild fruits, Si Lan mistakenly thought it was interested in them and said, “I knew dragons are herbivores…”

 

“…”

 

The ignorant Demon Lord.

 

Faced with Si Lan’s eager gaze, the little white dragon had no choice but to accept the wild fruits. However, its eyes remained fixed on Si Lan’s wrist throughout.

 

After successfully feeding it, Si Lan looked at Haowei with affection all over his face. He was actually a bit apprehensive about snakes, especially ones that were long and boneless. However, the small white dragon was pure white, with glossy scales, making it look rather cute.

 

He smiled and bent down, “You need to grow up quickly so we can form a bond in the future.”

 

The little white dragon’s expression froze upon hearing this, as it suspected it had misheard. A bond between the two of them?

 

At that moment, Si Lan suddenly reached out and rubbed its head. It struggled to get free but found that not only was its head being rubbed, but its pink dragon horns and four small claws were being vigorously rubbed as well.

 

“So adorable, I should have caught a dragon and kept it as a pet a long time ago,” Si Lan mumbled to himself.

 

Because they were so close when he spoke, his breath and warmth reached the top of the little white dragon’s head, as if it could penetrate its cold dragon scales and vividly touch its flesh and bones, caressing its dragon skeleton, causing the entire dragon to become soft in an instant.

 

The color of its golden eyes gradually solidified into a reddish-gold, and its silver scales turned into a pale pink, emitting a faint pink halo.

 

Si Lan stared at the pink halo in astonishment and said, “So you’re a color-changing dragon!”

 

“…” The little white dragon.

 

Si Lan picked up the small white dragon, full of excitement, and curiously examined it, wanting to know how it changed color.

 

He fiddled with the small white dragon’s body, trying to find out, much to the dragon’s annoyance. It quickly curled up and covered its sensitive areas with its claws, glaring at Si Lan with an angry expression.

 

The rude Demon Lord.

 

Where was he looking?

 

If it hadn’t been injured, it would have poked out the wild chicken’s eyes and turned it into a one-eyed chicken!

 

Si Lan was amused by the small white dragon’s actions. It was just too cute.

 

A dragon so small, and it even knew how to be shy.

 

He bent down, pinched the two dragon horns of the small white dragon.

 

These two dragon horns were pink and plump, and they looked adorable. Si Lan had been wanting to pinch them for a while.

 

Once he held the little white dragon’s dragon horns, its back suddenly tingled, and waves of excitement flowed rapidly through its body, making its dragon form even pinker.

 

The little white dragon, with its red eyes full of anger, extended its claws to kick Si Lan. However, because its claws were too short, it couldn’t reach Si Lan.

 

“Hahaha…”

 

Seeing this, Si Lan laughed even harder, and his laughter filled the entire cave.

 

He hadn’t expected that dragons, in their infancy, would be so silly and cute.

 

The little white dragon’s self-esteem was hurt, but it didn’t want to reveal its true form. It reluctantly averted its gaze and turned its back to Si Lan.

 

Quze’s voice suddenly came from outside the door, “Your Majesty, Xuanling Sect has sent an invitation.”

 

Si Lan immediately extended his hand and used magic to open the stone door.

 

The small white dragon, which had just stuck out its teeth, missed the target and almost fell out of Si Lan’s arms. It quickly used its two front paws to clutch Si Lan’s clothes tightly.

 

Quze bent down and walked in against the light, handing the invitation to Si Lan. Then, he stood respectfully to the side and stole a glance at Si Lan’s chest.

 

The little white dragon, having retracted its teeth, wagged its tail and noticed Quze’s inquisitive gaze. It blinked at him, feeling like it had received an odd look.

 

The invitation from Xuanling Sect was a marriage proposal from the Sect Leader Lou Yuqing.

 

Over five hundred years ago, Si Lan had met Lou Yuqing in the mortal realm.

 

At that time, Lou Yuqing was the top disciple of the Xuanling Sect, a once-in-a-millennium genius in the cultivation world. He was exceptionally talented, handsome, and possessed unparalleled charm, making countless female cultivators swoon. However, Lou Yuqing practiced the heartless Dao of apathy, dedicating himself to his cultivation and ignoring matters of love. This caused the hearts of many female cultivators to ache, and they wept in sorrow.

 

So why would Lou Yuqing suddenly propose marriage now?

 

If it were someone else, it might have been a case of love triumphing over the hero, but this was Lou Yuqing. Si Lan knew him well, and he was absolutely unlikely to harbor romantic feelings for anyone.

 

The more Si Lan thought about it, the more he found it suspicious and suspected that there was more to it than met the eye. He decided to visit Xuanling Sect first.

 

However, he had a hot potato in his hands at the moment.

 

Si Lan looked at the little white dragon and poked its scales.

 

This little thing now seemed to have no life-threatening issues.

 

“Hey, little one, do you know how to get back to the Heavenly Realm?”

 

The little white dragon heard Si Lan’s question but was annoyed and merely flipped its two dragon whiskers, not responding.

 

It didn’t want to talk to its blood food bag in human form.

 

“Oh, I forgot, you can’t talk, and you probably don’t remember the way either. Well, forget it, it’s not a big deal to have you with me.”

 

Si Lan decided he would keep the little white dragon with him. He planned to wait until the celestial soldiers and generals came looking for him, then return the dragon to them.

 

In the meantime, he would create some opportunities for them to be alone together, laying the foundation for their future bonding.

 

The little white dragon wanted to climb out by peeling away Si Lan’s clothes but, upon looking up, saw the close proximity of Si Lan’s pure white throat and the fragile blood vessels beneath it. It couldn’t help but swallow its saliva and gave up on struggling.

 

It still wanted to stay by his side and continue to recover.

 

“Quze, contact me if there’s anything important.”

 

After speaking, Si Lan’s figure transformed into a green light and disappeared within the Seven-Stringed Cave.

 

Quze acknowledged with a “Yes, Your Majesty” and watched the direction where Si Lan had vanished. He remained motionless for a long time, his clear and calm eyes gradually darkening.

 

Behind Quze, a massive snake head slowly materialized out of thin air. Its body seemed to have been severed from the neck, leaving only the head.

 

Irregular blue-green scales covered its entire head, and two huge vermilion eyes resembled gaping maws, embedded in its terrifying and monstrous face.

 

A hoarse and beguiling voice echoed throughout the cave.

 

“You’ve done well. He’s been lured to the Xuanling Sect.”

 

Quze remained silent, clenching his only left hand.

 

Since he could remember, he had only had one arm, a source of mockery and bullying.

 

But he had always considered himself somewhat fortunate to have been taken as Si Lan’s disciple. He believed that with enough effort, he could become as outstanding as others. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could never measure up to others, not even a six-year-old Xie Li.

 

It wasn’t until the appearance of the snake head that he learned that it was his revered Master Si Lan who, when he was born, severed his right arm and ruined his talent.

 

“Quze, he will pay the price for his cruelty toward you.”

Chapter 2

 

Si Lan lay lifeless in the Seven-Stringed Cave for several days.

 

On this particular evening, the exact time unknown, a sudden commotion reached the cave from outside.

 

Initially, he had no intention to pay any heed, but as the commotion grew louder and more intense, he had to hold his breath and listen. It turned out that someone had come to cause trouble at the Zhuyun Peak. Feeling stifled, he used his magic to fly out and see what was happening.

 

Atop the Zhuyun Peak, heavenly soldiers dressed in black armor stood on auspicious clouds, holding long silver spears. Their imposing presence suggested that they intended to attack the Zhuyun Peak.

 

Since Si Lan had been recognized by the diviner as a husband-repelling person who could only have male partners, everyone at the Zhuyun Peak, young and old, had been scared away.

 

Now, only his one-armed disciple Quze and his six-year-old junior disciple Xie Li remained. They stood with outstretched arms, attempting to obstruct the heavenly realm’s people.

 

Si Lan landed between the two and asked, “What’s going on?”

 

“Your Excellency, the people from the heavenly realm want to search the Zhuyun Peak,” Quze and Xie Li, upon seeing Si Lan, hid behind him.

 

Si Lan noticed that both of his young disciples had pale faces. He couldn’t help but frown and look at the heavenly general, “Oh? The heavenly realm wants to search my residence?”

 

During his father, Si Shaoxun’s generation, the two realms of heaven and demons had signed a truce agreement. These years, there had been no conflicts. Now, with the heavenly realm suddenly searching his dwelling, it was a clear provocation to the demon realm.

 

The leading heavenly general saw Si Lan’s appearance and, while less arrogant, remained somewhat unyielding. “Demon Lord, we’ve come to the demon realm on orders to find the Young Prince. Please cooperate.”

 

“The Young Prince? The Heavenly Emperor’s son?” If Si Lan recalled correctly, Emperor Haowei had been at the top of the Six Realms’ Bachelor Ranking just half a month ago. How could he have a son so quickly?

 

“Yes, it’s a long story. The Young Prince was bitten by a Flame Serpent some days ago and ended up in the demon realm. We detected his presence near the Zhuyun Peak.”

 

“Impossible, if someone from the heavenly realm were at the Zhuyun Peak, I would have sensed their presence.” Si Lan rejected it without hesitation.

 

“But…”

 

“Are you trying to use this imaginary Young Prince to provoke us intentionally?” Si Lan’s expression grew darker, and his aura intensified.

 

With Emperor Haowei recently conquering the dark creatures, Si Lan’s upper demon realm out of the six others was the only one still outside his control. It was possible that the Emperor planned to use a fictitious Young Prince to frame his demon realm and justify an attack.

 

The more Si Lan thought about it, the more it made sense.

 

Searching for someone on false pretenses to create a real conflict.

 

The chief officer, seeing Si Lan’s unfriendly attitude, hurriedly explained, “Your Excellency, we truly didn’t have such intentions. Haven’t you seen a boy about four feet tall?”

 

“No!”

 

“What about a small white dragon, about seven inches long?”

 

“None of that either!” Si Lan suddenly raised his voice. “If I saw them, do you think I would keep it a secret?”

 

“Well… That’s good. We’ll take our leave then.” The heavenly general, apparently convinced by Si Lan’s confident stance, felt he wasn’t lying and left in haste, riding on clouds.

 

Si Lan watched them depart, his expression unchanged.

 

It wasn’t until Quze approached that Si Lan’s legs gave way, and he collapsed onto Quze’s shoulder.

 

“Your Excellency?”

 

“Hurry, help me to the wine cellar!”

 

That small white dragon, could it be the same as the white snake he had soaked in wine?

 

He felt the world spinning, and everything went dark.

 

If that small white snake was truly the Young Prince, the Emperor’s son, had he inadvertently soaked the royal blood in wine? [/mfn]He wanted to make snake wine with the snake he found…[/mfn]

 

Oh no!

 

What has he done!

 

Si Lan rushed to the wine cellar and, after rummaging through everything, finally found the white jade bottle.

 

Inside the bottle, the small white dragon coiled its body, resting peacefully on a pile of Chinese wolfberries and Chinese angelica. It looked serene.

 

Si Lan wondered if three days of soaking had affected it in any way.

 

Si Lan tentatively shook the white jade bottle, making the small white dragon dizzy. After a few revolutions, it extended its tail, which supported the bottom of the bottle. Its head swayed back and forth in mid-air.

 

Suddenly, it opened its eyes and, through the transparent white jade bottle, gazed directly at Si Lan.

 

Si Lan’s heart skipped a beat.

 

Its eyes seemed to capture one’s soul. Its golden eyes were resplendent, and the irises sparkled like stars. Si Lan couldn’t help but think of the sea in the Land of the Unfettered, with its dazzling and captivating beauty, much like those eyes.

 

At that moment, the small white dragon burped, releasing a series of bubbles.

 

Si Lan quickly removed the bottle stopper, and a rich aroma of wine instantly filled the air. This wine was made from barley on the Western Isle and took a hundred years to produce just two or three bottles, making it extremely precious.

 

Si Lan didn’t want to waste it. He took a few sips before carefully pouring out the small white dragon and cradling it in his palm.

 

The small white dragon had a low body temperature, and its body trembled gently. Even its snow-white silver scales trembled slightly.

 

Si Lan gently tucked the small white dragon against his chest to keep it warm. He examined its spiritual energy and found it to be in disarray, with excessive exhalation and insufficient inhalation.

 

He recalled that the heavenly soldiers had mentioned this little creature being bitten by a Flame Serpent.

 

Though he wasn’t the one responsible, if anything happened to the small creature in the demon realm, the Heavenly Emperor might not spare the demon realm.

 

Si Lan felt a chilling sensation thinking about it and immediately infused spiritual energy into the small white dragon, aiming to stabilize its condition.

 

However, to his surprise, the small white dragon didn’t improve; instead, it became aggressive. Its dragon scales stood on end like blades, its golden eyes emitted a fiery, crimson light, and it struggled violently. It resembled a small beast in a fit of rage.

 

Si Lan reached out to soothe it, but the small white dragon suddenly coiled around his arm and, seizing an opportunity, viciously bit his wrist.

 

Its sharp teeth pierced his flesh.

 

Si Lan grimaced in pain as he felt his blood being sucked away from the wound.

 

This little creature was actually draining his blood?

 

Was it a vampire?

 

He contemplated swatting it away but decided against it. After all, he had soaked it in wine for so long and had almost eaten it. Having it take a little blood could be seen as compensation.

 

Once the small white dragon finished drinking his blood, it seemed to become more comfortable. Its body stopped trembling, and its raised silver scales slowly receded. It closed its eyes and instinctively crawled up Si Lan’s arm to his chest, where it felt the warmth and coziness, curling up to sleep peacefully.

 

Si Lan stared at the bulging spot on his chest and couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

 

This little creature was certainly unapologetic.

 

Xie Li gazed at the small white dragon with a pale face. “Your… Your Excellency, is it really the Heavenly Realm’s Young Prince?”

 

Si Lan reluctantly nodded.

 

Though he didn’t want to admit it, it seemed likely that this was the case.

 

“Your Excellency, how should we handle it?” Quze asked with a serious expression.

 

“I’ll try to heal it first. If that doesn’t work, I plan to…” Si Lan’s words abruptly stopped, and his expression became grave.

 

Both Quze and Xie Li, hearing this, became apprehensive and watched Si Lan closely. But then Si Lan added, “I plan to dispose of it.”

 

Quze and Xie Li exchanged glances, realizing that unfortunate circumstances could lead to chaos in both realms, even when drinking cold water could cause trouble.

 

Si Lan hadn’t expected that the snake he picked up by the roadside would turn out to be the Emperor’s son.

 

Now that he had the little creature in his hands, if something happened to it, no matter how he explained, the Heavenly Emperor might hold him accountable. To avoid making life miserable for the demon realm, he decided to either cure it or eliminate it.

 

Perhaps it was the effect of the wine he had just drunk, or the blood loss had left him weak, but Si Lan’s head was spinning. He instructed his two disciples not to divulge the matter of the small white dragon and then fell into a drowsy sleep, planning to deal with the creature’s condition after resting.

 

While Si Lan was lost in slumber, the small white dragon woke up two hours later.

 

The moment it opened its eyes, it saw Si Lan’s fair chest heaving up and down, which bewildered it.

 

Beneath the scales lay warm, delicate skin that allowed it to clearly feel the texture. When it extended its tail and accidentally touched a certain raised point on his chest, the small white dragon’s movements froze, as if it had been electrified.

 

Subsequently, in a fit of embarrassment, it squirmed out of Si Lan’s clothes, and its fierce gaze was locked onto the man in front of it.

 

Who was this rude person?

 

How could he treat it like this?

 

Si Lan was sleeping soundly and was completely unaware that he had caught the dragon’s attention.

 

The small white dragon, with a cold expression, gazed at Si Lan’s body, which had a pitch-black hair and was wearing a simple blue shirt with a white collar. Although he was asleep, his attractive features were still visible.

 

He was a reasonably good-looking, but rude, person.

 

The small white dragon’s gaze shifted down to Si Lan’s wrist, where the wound had already closed but had yet to scar.

 

It remembered that it had lost control of itself and, in a state of extreme aggression, had suddenly smelled a sweet scent. It had instinctively followed that scent, not realizing that it was the man’s blood.

 

It was strange. His blood not only stabilized its internal condition but also alleviated its injuries.

 

With this in mind, the small white dragon bent down to examine the secret of his blood. However, when it caught the sweet scent, it couldn’t resist biting him once more.

 

By the time it realized what had happened, it had already taken several sips of blood.

 

Si Lan remained asleep, blissfully unaware of the situation, but the small white dragon felt satiated and transformed into a six or seven-year-old child. It wore a white robe with a brocade pattern, and its hair was neatly tied up with a black jade crown. Its delicate, precious facial features were quite conspicuous for its age.

 

However, the childish face displayed an unusually composed expression, which appeared slightly comical.

 

The small white dragon conjured an eight-pointed star formation out of thin air, and soon, a physician dressed in a black robe appeared within the formation – it was Yu Wudao.

 

Upon seeing the small white dragon, Yu Wudao immediately approached and respectfully bowed, “Your Majesty.”

 

The small white dragon nodded slightly.

 

He wasn’t the crown prince of the heavenly realm, but the Heavenly Emperor Haowei himself.

 

Seven hundred years ago, during his advancement to the “Divine Emperor” realm, he had been deliberately sabotaged by a mysterious figure, leaving him with a spiritual injury. Every now and then, his internal energy became erratic, his magical power weakened, and in severe cases, he would even lose control of his consciousness and turn into a child.

 

At the time, he had just subdued the Underworld and Demon realms, but there were still many demons and monsters who refused to yield. He feared that revealing his condition would lead to unrest in the Six Realms, so he had kept it a secret.

But what he hadn’t expected was that half a month ago, he had appeared as a child in the Ninth Heaven and was accidentally seen by the talkative Heavenly Star Lord Tianyu.

 

So in less than half a day, the entire Ninth Heaven knew about a boy who looked exactly like the Heavenly Emperor, even the Heavenly Mother, who had been in seclusion for tens of thousands of years, was alarmed by this and came out of seclusion to inquire about the child.

 

“They say that the child is about six or seven years old?”

 

“Yes.”

 

“And he looks exactly like you?”

 

“Yes.”

 

“Everyone says he’s your illegitimate child?”

 

“Yes…”

 

He kept silent, afraid that the Heavenly Mother would worry, and in the end, he didn’t tell her the truth, tacitly accepting that the child was his illegitimate son.

 

Later, he came up with an excuse, saying that he sent the child to Xingchuan for training, which quelled everyone’s curiosity and curiosity.

 

This time, he found the aura of Black Calamity on the Flame Serpent in the Demon Realm, the same as the aura of the mysterious person who had disrupted his Heavenly Tribulation back then. He chased the Flame Serpent all the way to Qiongsha Island, just caught it, but then his spiritual injury suddenly recurred. His mind lost control instantly, shrouded in extreme aggression, and he wanted to destroy everything.

 

When he regained some consciousness, he found that the Flame Serpent had been torn into pieces, and its inner gall had been swallowed into his stomach.

 

The inner gall was cold, which only made his internal energy more chaotic. He was afraid of getting into trouble and planned to fly back to the Ninth Heaven to recover, but he lost consciousness again.

 

And somehow, he ended up here.

 

Thinking of this, Haowei looked at Si Lan and said, “Yuwudao, go and find out what this person’s true form is.”

 

Although Haowei had discovered that Si Lan’s true form was a wild chicken with phoenix feathers when he drank his blood earlier, chicken blood couldn’t possibly have such effects.

 

Yuwudao then noticed the man lying behind Haowei and asked, “Is this person the Demon Lord Si Lan?”

 

“Yes, his blood is useful for me,” Haowei said succinctly.

 

Upon hearing this, Yuwudao was initially taken aback and then said with great joy, “Your Majesty, since the Demon Lord’s blood is useful to you, why not just consume him…”

Chapter 1

 

Si Lan found himself inside an egg.

 

To start the story, it all began with a text message he received on his phone.

 

【I am the Path of Heavenly Cultivation. Send money to me, and I will help you unify the Six Realms. Bank account number: xxxx.】

 

He was half asleep and decided to play along by sending a small amount of money to the scammer. But when he opened his eyes, he was inside this egg.

 

He referred to it as a chicken egg, rather than a duck, goose, or dinosaur egg because he could always hear the clucking sounds of a mother hen around him.

 

His chicken mother was diligent and gave him “lessons from outside the egg” every day.

 

From the chicken mother’s incessant chatter, he roughly understood the world he was in. It was divided into six realms: Gods, Immortals, Demons, Monsters, Ghosts, and Humans, further classified into the five elements of Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder, and Earth.

 

He wasn’t particularly interested in the history of these six realms or their cultivation techniques, but he did remember all the strange stories.

 

Therefore, even as he remained a gooey mess inside the egg, he already knew about the many mysteries and eight trigrams of the Six Realms and Five Elements.

 

For example, the Heavenly Fairy Yu Hua once had an online romance that led her to meet a powerful cross-dressing Demon King. Upon meeting, Yu Hua discovered that the Demon King was even more imposing than she was, and this encounter traumatized her, making her fear men and leaving her with deep psychological scars.

 

Another example was the divine bird Zhu Xiao, who, despite her delicate and beautiful appearance, loved to practice with a war hammer instead of a sword. She did this because her mother, on her deathbed, told her that men would affect her sword-drawing speed. So, in front of her mother, she took up the meteor hammer and said, “Mom, rest assured, I won’t practice the sword anymore.”

 

Yet another example was the wild chicken named Luo Hui on the Flat-Top Mountain. While other chickens were busy hunting for bugs all over the mountain, Luo Hui understood the importance of class transcending. She saved a Nine-Heaven Divine Phoenix and, in gratitude, forced the Divine Phoenix to marry her.

 

The Divine Phoenix refused, so she used a clever tactic: she cooked raw rice into a ready meal, then presented the egg, successfully marrying him.

 

…

 

It goes without saying that the wild chicken named Luo Hui is his chicken mother, and the egg is Si Lan.

 

Not long after Luo Hui became a mother and the Divine Phoenix, Si Lan’s father, Si Shaoxun, suddenly fell into darkness.

 

The Nine Heavens’ lavish lifestyle that Luo Hui dreamed of suddenly vanished as she was forced to follow Si Shaoxun into the war-torn Demon Realm. Fortunately, Si Shaoxun quickly defeated the Demon Lord Chu Shanjun at the time, united the twelve peaks of the Demon Realm, and was crowned the Demon Emperor.

 

And then, Si Lan was born.

 

In theory, a child born of a Nine-Heaven Divine Phoenix and a wild chicken should at least be some sort of divine bird. Unfortunately, Si Lan inherited 100% of Luo Hui’s traits and was a plain brown chicken with no resemblance to a Divine Phoenix.

 

That day, Luo Hui, watching Si Lan hatch from the eggshell, jumped into Si Shaoxun’s arms and tearfully said, “A Divine Phoenix ruling the Demon Realm, exuding dominance, but a wild chicken ruling the Demon Realm? That’s just absurd. So, in order for our son to one day rightfully inherit your position, I want to conceal his true identity and claim he’s a young Divine Phoenix.”

 

Si Shaoxun remained silent for a while, then pushed away Luo Hui’s clammy hand and said, “Fine.”

 

She was overjoyed and used an illusion technique to transform Si Lan instantly from a wild chicken into a Divine Phoenix.

 

However, Si Lan felt that whether he was a Divine Phoenix or a wild chicken, it was good as long as he could crow. There was no need to fuss over it so much.

 

Unfortunately, he was just a little chick at the time, and his attempts to voice his objections came out as “cluck, cluck, cluck.”

 

His mother thought he was hungry and tossed a fat earthworm in front of him.

 

“…”

 

He didn’t succeed in his objections. The only time he managed to object was when it came to naming.

 

His mother hoped he would grow up to be someone who would correct his mistakes and have consistent words and actions, so she named him Si Guoyi.

 

“…”

 

He stretched out his chubby chicken claws and gestured a large cross in the air.

 

His mother vaguely understood what he meant, “Do you want to choose your own name?”

 

He nodded his little head, and his mother smiled.

 

“Alright, then you can pick your own name when Si Guoyi grows up.”

 

“…”

 

In the days that followed, Si Lan, like other little chicks, spent his early days in the Demon Realm on the Zhuyun Peak, almost forgetting his origins from the future.

 

Sometimes, when he woke up in the middle of the night, he even felt that his past life as a human was just a dream.

 

Just as Zhuangzi dreamt of being a butterfly[/mfn]A famous historical poem about life being a  dream.[/mfn], now Si Lan was a chicken dreaming of being human.

 

When he reached the age of one hundred and twenty, it was time for his transformation, and he took on a human form.

 

On that day, he looked at himself in the mirror. His new human form was identical to his previous human appearance, with some resemblance to his father.

 

It was then that he suddenly realized that he hadn’t seen his father in a long time.

 

His mother and his father, with their eight hundred schemes, had an eccentric marriage that had provided much gossip in the Six Realms over the years.

 

Some said that his father didn’t love his mother, that he was infatuated with the Divine Phoenix from Cang Mountain, but his mother had intervened, causing him a lifetime of unrequited love and misery.

 

They also said that his father didn’t love him, that his existence was the only stain on his father’s otherwise flawless life, so his father hadn’t paid much attention to him over the years.

 

Later, when his mother was injured by a divine miracle and on her deathbed, he held her in a rainstorm, trying repeatedly to heal her wounds, but they wouldn’t close.

 

The heavy rain washed away the blood, creating a river of crimson.

 

Finally, his father, Si Shaoxun, appeared, treading on the river of blood.

 

He expected his mother to complain, to be angry, but instead, with her last breath, she begged his father to ensure that his true form would never be exposed.

 

Si Shaoxun, in front of his mother, revealed his true form, personally severed his own phoenix wings, and attached them to Si Lan’s back.

 

His mother finally closed her eyes in peace. He didn’t understand why his mother was so insistent on hiding his true identity, but since it was her wish, he made an effort to do so.

 

For many years, he only consumed Divine Dew and Jade Elixir, wore Cloud Brocade and Flashing Silk, and landed on Qingtong Greenwood, carefully playing the role of a Divine Phoenix.

 

He also focused on cultivation and quickly became one of the top demon cultivators in the Demon Realm.

 

Later, when Si Shaoxun passed away, he thought of giving him his phoenix feathers, but he didn’t want to see his father in a vulnerable state. So, he politely declined, saying it was to allow his father to leave with dignity.

 

After his mother’s death, he harbored resentment toward Si Shaoxun for some time, until he discovered that the usually emotionless Si Shaoxun, on the anniversary of his mother’s death, lay under the large wutong tree on the Zhuyun Peak, complaining while hugging a wine jar, “You never really loved me. All you wanted was a powerful man to lay a powerful egg.”

 

He didn’t know whom to pity more at that moment.

 

In the end, he buried his parents together under the wutong tree.

 

In that year, he had just turned 120 years old, which was equivalent to a human child of seven or eight years old, and both his parents had left him.

 

—

 

At the age of 200, Si Lan reached adulthood. But in the same year, Chu Shanjun, the Demon Lord who had once been driven into hiding by his father, sent him a challenge.

 

He didn’t care much about the title of Demon Lord, but it was his mother’s lifelong wish for him to ascend to that position, so he couldn’t just give it away.

 

He accepted Chu Shanjun’s challenge but was tricked by Chu Shanjun during the battle, suffering severe injuries and falling into the mortal realm. This marked the beginning of a heartbreaking love that would span three centuries.

 

It was called heartbreaking because every ending was tragic.

 

The tragedy didn’t befall him; it befell his savior in the mortal realm, a woman named Lan Lan.

 

In the first life, Lan Lan saved him when he was severely injured, and she offered herself to him.

 

He thought that perhaps this was a pattern for men in his family; his mother had used a similar plot on his father. He agreed to Lan Lan’s proposal but insisted on first defeating Chu Shanjun. However, while seeking revenge against Chu Shanjun, he ended up severely wounded and unconscious.

 

When he woke up, fifty years had passed in the mortal realm.

 

Hastily, he went to the mortal realm to find Lan Lan, but she had already married someone else and had been a widow for many years. Lan Lan, however, was a person of honor, and when she saw him, she suggested continuing their past marriage agreement.

 

So, he picked a lucky day, sent a group of demons with drums and gongs to fetch the bride, and she arrived in the Demon Realm. On that day, the new bride had just arrived in the Demon Realm when a sudden gale arose, the earth shook, and the septuagenarian bride was blown onto a tall tree, where she breathed her last.

 

“…”

 

Because of this, he was depressed for many years. Later, he found Lan Lan in the second life, and their story continued.

 

However, this time, during their wedding night, after they had drunk from the ceremonial cups, Lan Lan inexplicably suffered from alcohol poisoning and passed away.

 

Upon investigation, it was revealed that while Lan Lan was a carp demon, she had a serpent lineage in her ancestry, and the ceremonial wine was mixed with male fern liquor.

 

“…”

 

Another hundred years passed, and he found Lan Lan in the third life.

 

This time, he decided to skip the traditional wedding proceedings and went straight to the wedding night. That night, just as he was about to discuss the meaning of life with his new bride, the bride unexpectedly encountered the inevitable Heavenly Thunder Tribulation that all demons faced.

 

The small bridal chamber was suddenly filled with lightning and thunder, and the bride was struck down in front of his eyes.

 

“…”

 

From then on, his reputation as the husband who killed three consecutive brides spread throughout the Six Realms.

 

Whenever the marriage rate in the Demon Realm was low or marital discord was high, news would spread that he was looking for a new bride, and demon realm girls would eagerly line up. Even widows would remarry, bringing peace to the Demon Realm.

 

At first, he didn’t care about these rumors because he believed he was cursed when it came to wives. His second and third wives were both reincarnations of Lan Lan, so technically, he only caused the death of one person, Lan Lan.

 

It wasn’t until the rumors reached an absurd level, with the palace maids blaming their headaches, stomachaches, and even irregular menstrual cycles on him, that he realized the problem had become serious.

 

He seemed to have become something extraordinary!

 

Unable to sit still, he decided to consult the divination expert, Bu Yigua.

 

On a sunny day, he gathered his guards, the twelve peak masters of the Demon Realm, and a group of brave and skilled warriors, and they all went to Qiangjue Mountain to see the divination expert and clear his name.

 

On that day, the divination expert told him, “Your fate is destined to be with a man. If you marry a woman, you will harm her.”

 

The divination expert also said, “That person’s fate and ill omens are connected to you.”

 

It sounded like he had said something important, yet said nothing at all.

 

Because, being demons, they all had some ill omens in their fate.

 

So, he cautiously asked, “Does that mean ten thousand male demons in the Demon Realm are my destined ones?”

 

The divination expert’s expression stiffened slightly, “You’re quite imaginative…”

 

“…”

 

“Never mind, I’ll be kind once more. According to the shell’s guidance, your destined one will be near Tianming Star in the near future.”

 

Tianming Star was in the center of the five directions, pointing to the Qiongsha Island in the Demon Realm. Qiongsha Island had been overgrown with weeds and desolate for thousands of years.

 

Why would his destined one be there?

 

He hesitated for a moment, then thanked the divination expert and flew to Qiongsha Island alone.

 

The reason he went alone was that his guards, the twelve peak masters, and the warriors had all scattered and fled upon hearing that he was destined to be with a man.

 

Even Song, the right guard who had been paralyzed for over a hundred years, was scared and ran off, carrying his wheelchair, saying as he fled, “Your Majesty, I can serve you with my life, but not my body!”

 

“…”

 

Tsk tsk.

 

—

 

Qiongsha Island.

 

He had searched for half a month, but unfortunately, during this time, he hadn’t found his destined one, or even a living creature that could breathe. After his third round of searching today, he still had nothing to show for it, so he put away his shiny phoenix wings and landed on a grassy field.

 

He hadn’t been fasting, and he still had his appetite. However, the Jade Elixir and Divine Dew in his storage bag had been consumed the previous day, so he had to find some food.

 

After searching for a while, he only found a small, limp, wrinkled, and almost sun-dried white worm. Perhaps he was a little lightheaded from hunger, as this unattractive worm suddenly looked appealing to him.

 

However, even though his true form was a wild chicken, he had never eaten insects in all his life…

 

Just as he hesitated, his stomach betrayed him with a loud growl.

 

Never mind, he thought. I’ll just eat something to calm my hunger now, and then I’ll have the strength to fly back later.

 

He had no intention of staying in this godforsaken place.

 

After searching for so long without finding his destined one, he suspected that the divination expert had deceived him.

 

He opened his mouth and placed the small white worm inside. Just as he was about to chew, the worm suddenly started struggling in his mouth, and he quickly spat it out.

 

After falling to the ground, the worm slowly changed, growing to the size of an adult male’s thumb, about seven inches long, entirely white but with a dull luster.

 

Si Lan hadn’t expected this little white worm to be a spiritual creature that could change its form!

 

Unfortunately, this spiritual creature was now running out of breath.

 

He picked up the small white worm, which was covered in white scales and had a tail like a thorn, and guessed that it might not be a worm but a small white snake.

 

Chickens don’t usually eat snakes; it goes against their nature.

 

But chickens do play around with snakes, and that doesn’t seem to be a problem.

 

So, on the way back to his palace, he bought some wolfberries and angelica, along with the small white snake, and brewed them into wine, which he stored in a white jade bottle before placing it in the wine cellar.

 

This trip to Qiongsha Island hadn’t been entirely in vain.

 

Upon returning to Zhuyun Peak, Si Lan announced that he would enter seclusion for an indefinite period. He did it not because he needed to cultivate but because the revelation from the divination expert that he was fated to be with a man had thrown the entire Demon Realm into chaos. People were reluctant to leave their homes, and this was severely impacting productivity.

 

To appease the demons, he declared an indefinite seclusion period, which, in reality, meant he would be sitting in the Seven-Stringed Cave, reading books and passing the time.

 

After reading all the books, Si Lan unexpectedly felt a bit sentimental.

 

Unknowingly, he had lived his demon life for over a thousand years, experiencing some ups and downs, as well as enduring the winds of gossip. While it hadn’t been full of excitement, it had been quite stable.

 

He had gone from being an ordinary demon cultivator to becoming the Demon King of the Demon Realm. According to the books, his life should be coming to an end.

 

However, he didn’t know that the real story about him was just beginning.
