Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Vol. 1 - Chapter 6 - Why Did He Come Back?



A man with a powerful aura dressed in a golden heavenly attire shouted angrily. He flew out of the main hall of Tiandao Palace and stood in the air in front of Ning Yechen.

The moment he saw Ning Yechen, Tiandao Changrong frowned.

The man before him was very familiar, but he could not put his finger on it.

Standing with his hands behind his back, Ning Yechen looked at Tiandao Changrong and asked quizzically, “Huh? Who are you? Where is that stuffy old fool Tiandao Wentian?”

He had not come to the Heavenly Realm for a long time. He did not know that the leader of Tiandao Palace had changed.

Throughout the Heavenly Realm, no one dared to speak to someone from Tiandao Palace as arrogantly as Ning Yechen did.

The more Tiandao Changrong looked at him, the more he found him familiar. Eventually, he recalled Ning Yechen’s identity, and his expression changed drastically. “It’s you? Demon Lord of the Demon Realm, Ye Mochen!”

Tiandao Changrong was shocked, and there was fear in his eyes. The fear buried in his heart for over a century was triggered in this instant.

Over a century ago, he had secretly seen Ye Mochen!

Compared to over a century ago, Ning Yechen looked much kinder now and undoubtedly seemed like a mere mortal, so the man was unable to recognize Ning Yechen for a moment.

“Not bad. Someone from Tiandao Palace still recognizes me. But you are wrong about one thing. I am the former Demon Lord of the Demon Realm. I have retired now.” Ning Yechen shook his head and corrected him.

“Ye Mochen, you charged into the Heavenly Realm, disturbed the peace of Tiandao Palace, and hurt our people. Do you seriously think we’re pushovers?”

Although Tiandao Changrong was scared, he was the current leader of Tiandao Palace. After regaining his composure, he reprimanded Ning Yechen.

Ning Yechen frowned in displeasure. “Now that the rain has passed and the sky is clear, do you think that Tiandao Palace is good? From the looks of it, I didn’t demolish Tiandao Palace thoroughly enough back then.”

“Hmph! Ye Mochen, do you really think nothing has changed in the Heavenly Realm in a century?

“Now, I have entered the Heavenly Emperor rank, and I am determined to seek revenge on you for the destruction of Tiandao Palace a century ago.”

Tiandao Changrong looked stern. With a shout, the terrifying aura belonging to a Heavenly Emperor radiated from him and filled the atmosphere!

The incredible force shattered all the palace structures within a 30-kilometer radius, and countless people could only lie on the ground, unable to catch their breath.

Those with higher cultivations were barely able to hold their heads up. Everyone cheered for the Tiandao Palace leader’s aggressive aura.

“Sure enough, the Tiandao Palace Leader lives up to his name!”

“He is a model for the younger generation!”

“In just slightly over a century, he has risen from Heavenly Venerable into the ranks of Heavenly Emperors!”

“This is the first time I have seen him in his full glory. How majestic and domineering!”

“Within the Heavenly Realm, his strength is among the peak few!”

“Hmph! He’s furious now. Now, it’s time to teach a lesson to this kid who doesn’t know better!”

Ning Yechen sighed helplessly. He raised his dark eyes and glanced at Tiandao Changrong.

With a gentle clap, a giant demonic palm over 100 meters wide appeared out of nowhere and pressed down on Tiandao Changrong’s head!

The dark demonic palm covered half of Tiandao Palace!

Including Tiandao Changrong, all the disciples of Tiandao Palace trembled and had been unable to move in the slightest!

With a loud bang, nearly half of Tiandao Palace was smashed into smithereens, leaving the Heavenly Realm shaking in its wake!

Pinned under the demonic palm, Tiandao Changrong spat blood and was embedded into the ground. All he could sense was his bones breaking with a look of horror on his face. How is this possible? I’ve already stepped into the Heavenly Emperor realm! Why do I feel like a helpless chicken in front of the Demon Lord?! With one move, I nearly died!

“You didn’t remember your lesson. In that case, there’s no point in keeping Tiandao Palace around.” Ning Yechen walked in the air with his hands behind his back and shouted calmly into the depths of Tiandao Palace, “Old man, I know you’re still alive. If you don’t come out, I will raze Tiandao Palace to the ground and take every single person with it.

“On a count of three, two, one…”

Before he could finish speaking, a green light flew from Tiandao Palace with a few other colored lights following closely behind.

An elegant old man with a 3-foot-long white beard quickly appeared before Ning Yechen.

Along with him were several elders of Tiandao Palace at the Heavenly Emperor rank!

“This is great!”

“The ancestor has come out of seclusion!”

“A few other elders have also come out!”

“Now, we have nothing to fear from that guy!”

“Does he really think that he can single-handedly go against Tiandao Palace?”

Outside Tiandao Palace, countless disciples raised their heads and looked at the ancestor and elders in the sky.

They represented not only the true strength of Tiandao Palace, but they were also some of the strongest people in the Heavenly Realm.

Ning Yechen looked at Tiandao Wentian and smiled lightly. “Old man, you finally showed your face.”

Tiandao Wentian looked at Ning Yechen. His face trembled, looking paler than Tiandao Changrong! The bane of my life is still around! Why did he come back? Which idiot made him come here?

At the thought of the War of Immortals and Demons over a century ago, Tiandao Wentian could not help trembling all over.

If he could, he would rather use the entire force of Tiandao Palace to attack the other eight great powers of the Heavenly Realm than fight the Demon Lord!

Initially, when he heard the commotion and Ye Mochen’s voice, he had already guessed it was this man.

He wanted to hide and wait for him to leave. Unfortunately, if he did not come out, Tiandao Palace would be over.

“What’s wrong? Did you bring so many men with you to spar against me? That's great. I haven’t exercised in over a century. It’s a good time for a warm-up,” Ning Yechen said with a bright smile on his face.

The two of them sounded like good friends, but every word Ning Yechen uttered made Tiandao Wentian shudder.

Almost without hesitation, Tiandao Wentian hurriedly shook his head and smiled ingratiatingly. “Greetings, Demon Lord. You are too kind. Tiandao Palace will never be your enemy.”

The disciples of Tiandao Palace looked at Tiandao Wentian with stunned expressions, and their faith instantly collapsed.

This was their first time seeing the stern and authoritative ancestor of Tiandao Palace smiling ingratiatingly!

“Demon Lord, I wonder if you could let off my great-grandson?” Tiandao Wentian looked at Tiandao Changrong pinned under the demonic palm. Seeing he was still breathing and alive, he felt relieved, and his attitude was particularly polite.

Once, dozens of Heavenly Emperors had joined forces but were unable to take down the Demon Lord. It made no sense for Tiandao Palace to oppose him alone.

If Tiandao Palace were destroyed, so be it. At worst, they would rebuild it. As long as their foundation remained, all was well.

Ning Yechen glanced at Tiandao Changrong. With a flick of his wrist, the 100-meter-wide demonic palm disappeared.

After escaping death, Tiandao Changrong ran over to Tiandao Wentian, pointed at Ning Yechen, and griped, “Ancestor, you have to seek justice for Tiandao Palace!”

The only reply he got was a loud and crisp slap!

“You insensible fool! You have offended the Demon Lord. For that, you will be punished with imprisonment in the forbidden zone for a century!”

Tiandao Wentian was furious.

Tiandao Changrong still wanted to take action against the Demon Lord. He must really want Tiandao Palace to be razed to the ground!

He did not know better!

If he could use his fists, he would not be enduring this humiliation and smiling obsequiously!

Tiandao Changrong was slapped over 100 meters away. He was in a daze, and there was blood on the corner of his mouth.

He could not believe that the ancestor who had always doted on him the most would strike him.

A century ago, Tiandao Changrong had been very well-protected and had never personally exchanged blows with the Demon Lord. He did not know the Demon Lord’s true strength!

However, Tiandao Wentian had personally experienced it. He knew very well that no one in Tiandao Palace was the Demon Lord's match!

The slap and punishment were meant to save him!

“I announce that Tiandao Changrong is to be removed as the leader of Tiandao Palace. He will be imprisoned in the forbidden zone for a century! Men, take him!”
