Liu Feng muttered, "What happened? Waking up feeling like the whole world has changed?"
Liu Chuanshan glared at his own son, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did he become your brother-in-law?"
Liu Yun, who had not gone far, stumbled, his face covered in dark lines, thinking to himself: Just now, who almost forced someone to call him father-in-law?
At this moment, Chu Mo sighed and cupped his fists towards Liu Chuanshan, "Junior Chu Mo pays respects to my uncle."
"Uh-huh." Liu Chuanshan wanted to put on airs, but then deflated a bit and sighed, "Alright, kid, I won't make things difficult for you. Matters of the young should be solved by the young themselves. Come on, join me for a drink."
"This time... it isn't poisoned, is it?" Chu Mo said with a wry smile.
The poisoned drinks from Feng Chun before did indeed hurt him at that moment. But later, he also understood; Feng Chun did not mean to harm him. It was just that his approach was a bit extreme. But he had repaid everything with his own life. That was enough.
Liu Chuanshan glared fiercely at Chu Mo, "Do you think poison comes for free?"
Chu Mo scratched his head, looking innocent as he followed along, thinking to himself, who knows what these crazy folks at Lingdan Hall are thinking? To them, poison indeed doesn't cost a thing, they can acquire a bunch whenever they want, whatever type they want. They could probably even get poison that could kill a Quasi-Saint!
Liu Feng, with a puzzled face, leaned in close to Chu Mo, "Brother-in-law, can you tell me what happened?"
Liu Chuanshan huffed angrily, "Brat, if you dare call him brother-in-law again, I will break your legs!"
"What did I do to deserve this?" Liu Feng looked innocent.
Later on, Liu Yun came out and prepared a table full of drinks and dishes for the three men. Qi Xiaoyu was completely clueless about these things and could only watch with wide eyes. Besides, it was impossible for Liu Yun to put her to work. After all, she was a guest. She could only chat idly with Liu Yun from time to time.
"How did you all find out about our family's secret?" Liu Yun asked, "I never told him about it."
"Let's not talk about how I found out for now, but just one thing. You told him so many secrets. Couldn't he have any doubts at all? Your secrets are not something ordinary people are privileged to know," Qi Xiaoyu said with a light chuckle.
Liu Yun thought for a moment and sighed bitterly, "At that time, I just wanted to warn him and didn't think too much about it."
"Yes, your initial intention was to save me when you warned him," Qi Xiaoyu said softly, "That's also why I accept you and Yiyi. You all... might be jealous, envious, reluctant to share a man with others, but your nature is good."
"Ah... what a mess." Liu Yun sighed.
Qi Xiaoyu continued, "As for knowing the details, well, even though you haven't agreed to be my sisters yet, I think that's no longer a problem. I can tell you."
Liu Yun, while cooking, looked at Qi Xiaoyu curiously, "Go on."
"Those two dark holy artifacts..." Qi Xiaoyu said, raising her wrist and the bracelet shone with a faint light, like ink jade.
Liu Yun narrowed her eyes slightly; through her father, she had already learned the origins of this object.
"They actually did not originally belong to the Demon Clan; they came from the Luotian Immortal Domain, and they are not Quasi-Saint artifacts, but genuine holy artifacts. For some reasons, they chose to fall into darkness themselves. Escaping the Luotian Immortal Domain, they ended up in the demon-filled Demon Realm," Qi Xiaoyu said somberly.
"Does that mean that when my grandfather got them, they were already two demonic items?" Liu Yun said, surprised.
"Your grandfather?" Qi Xiaoyu was not aware of this detail.
Then, the two women talked back and forth, piecing the whole story together.
Their conversation was not intentionally concealed. Although the kitchen was far from the living room, it was nothing for these three men; they heard everything clearly.
Even Liu Feng's bewildered and casual expression disappeared, listening intently.
After a long while, Liu Chuanshan sighed heavily, looking at Chu Mo, "So, after you came back this time, you know everything now, right?"
Chu Mo nodded.
Liu Chuanshan grunted, "Then why not continue to slay demons and exorcise evil? We are the authentic Demon Clan, sworn enemies of the Human Clan."
Chu Mo looked at him, "Back in my grandfather's time, if we wanted to slay demons and exorcise evil, while the Yanhuang region's living beings would suffer, how many from the Demon Clan would have been left?"
Liu Chuanshan was taken aback for a moment.
Liu Feng muttered to himself, "At that time, the power of the Human Clan greatly surpassed the Demon Clan. If a real war started, it's likely that the Demon Clan would have faced the crisis of complete annihilation."
Liu Chuanshan just huffed but did not deny it.
Chu Mo said, "Since my grandfather didn't do it then, why should I?"
Liu Chuanshan scoffed, "Just because you don't think that way, doesn't mean the Demon Clan about to descend upon this world will think the same!"
Chu Mo glanced at Liu Chuanshan, "It's enough as long as Uncle doesn't think that way."
Liu Chuanshan fell silent, then said gravely, "But I am ultimately from the Demon Clan."
Chu Mo nodded, "The woman I love most is from the Elf Clan."
Liu Chuanshan first nodded in agreement, then glared at Chu Mo. In front of him, his prospective son-in-law, mentioning another woman as his most beloved, this kid really had some nerve, almost asking for a spanking. Too bad it seemed like he couldn't be beaten.
That was the most frustrating thing—if he could have been beaten, wouldn't he have already taken action instead of waiting until now?
Through certain events, Liu Chuanshan had also thoroughly recognized Chu Mo's strength. Especially since that year, although he had not told his daughter, he had thought in his heart that if Chu Mo could truly come back alive, then what harm would there be in marrying his daughter to him?
So-called Demon Clan royal bloodline, Demon Clan orthodox, Demon Clan princess...these had all long become fleeting clouds of the past. Now who would he tell? Who would agree? After living so many years in the Mortal Realm, though their bodies still carried the blood of the Demon Clan, were they really any different from the Human Clan?
The so-called persistence was merely clinging to the last bit of pride deep in one's heart.
He looked at Chu Mo, "So what you're saying is, you agree to this marriage? Kid, my daughter cannot be wronged!"
At this time, Liu Yun walked in with a tray, and protested, "Dad!"
"Ah, let it be, let it be. It's hard to keep a grown daughter at home. Look, she doesn't care at all. She's not even married yet and she's already taking someone else's side." Liu Chuanshan muttered with a pout, "My wife was the same back then... really, like mother, like daughter..."
Liu Yun glared at her father and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Dad, about mom's situation..."
Liu Chuanshan's expression immediately turned serious, "Why bring that up?"
"I was thinking..." Liu Yun's eyes reddened slightly. The death of Feng Chun today had touched her deeply, and she couldn't help but think of her own mother.
Chu Mo looked at Liu Chuanshan, then said, "Regarding this matter, I think we can settle things with the Demon Clan after twenty years."
Liu Chuanshan abruptly looked up, his eyes shooting out two beams of light, staring at Chu Mo, "You can fend off the Demon Clan?"
Chu Mo shook his head, "How could anyone guarantee that? If a group of supremes were to descend upon this world, how could I alone stop them all?"
"Then what are you suggesting?" Liu Chuanshan frowned slightly, looking at Chu Mo.
This matter was not only related to the future fate of the entire Yanhuang region, but also to the future of the Liu Family! Whether his wife could wake from this long-term feigned death depended on what happened twenty years from now!
When it came down to it, this was all thanks to Chu Mo. Previously, Liu Chuanshan never dreamed that Chu Mo could truly succeed. Even if it was just to stop the Demon Clan for twenty years, that was already a heaven-defying ability! If it were him, he would definitely not have such confidence and certainty.
Especially facing beings like the Blood Demon Ancestor, along with a supreme like Qin Cang. Even now, Liu Chuanshan didn't know how Chu Mo had done it. He did not ask though, because some things he could ask without restraint, but others he was not allowed to question. This was a rule, a boundary. Of course, if Chu Mo was willing to share, he was very eager to know.
"My view is that, perhaps in twenty years, things could change," Chu Mo looked at Liu Chuanshan, "Actually, about my aunt... I think she can be awoken now. During these twenty years, I think you will be very happy."
Liu Feng and Liu Yun, standing to the side, instantly teared up. Motherly love, such a seemingly simple thing, yet they had never experienced it. It was their grandest wish.
Liu Chuanshan immediately understood what Chu Mo meant. He, too, lacked confidence, but regardless of whether he had confidence or not, after twenty years, they had to confront this matter!
In other words, even if his wife, the little princess of the Demon Clan, continued her feigned death for another twenty years, once the Demon Clan invaded after twenty years, the matter would need to be settled! Rather than letting that happen, it would be better to first enjoy twenty years of peaceful and happy life. Future issues could wait until later!
Liu Chuanshan, a similarly exceedingly clever individual, understood all of this in an instant and also instantly agreed with Chu Mo's suggestion. His son-in-law, no matter what, could not harm them.
With this in mind, Liu Chuanshan nodded and said, "Alright, that settles it then!"
Liu Feng asked with a trembling voice from the side, "Dad, can we really see mom?"
Liu Chuanshan nodded, "Do you want to?"
Liu Feng nodded vigorously, "I've dreamed of it!"
Liu Yun, on the side, was already in tears.
Qi Xiaoyu also felt deeply moved, thinking how everyone had parents, and yet she did not, which was a great regret. However, she had Chu Mo, and that was enough for her!
Thinking this, Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo, and smiled brightly.
