Chapter 828: Chapter 826: The Birth of the Inner Demon
The Quiet Hall was enveloped by a defensive formation, outside of which stood Duanmu Yunhua guarding it.
Seeing Sally approach, Duanmu Yunhua stopped her, “Your Majesty is not seeing anyone at the moment.”
Sally said, “Then I’ll just wait here with the children.”
The defensive formation opened.
Duanmu Yunhua stepped back two steps, “Empress, Great Princess, Angel Princess, please.”
Sally glanced at him, “Thank you.”
Then she entered with her two daughters.
Zi Qi finished his practice and, seeing Sally and her two daughters, smiled and said, “What’s the matter? It’s just a tribulation, why the long faces? Xiaoqi, Little Miqi, come here and let Father Emperor embrace you~”
Xiaoqi and Little Miqi scrambled into Zi Qi’s arms.
“I’m sorry, Father Emperor, Xiaoqi shouldn’t have disobeyed Mother and Uncle Yu, making decisions on my own to bring Little Miqi and disturb Father Emperor during his tribulation,” Xiaoqi cried loudly.
Little Miqi also said, “Later, Little Miqi will take care of Daddy.”
Zi Qi chuckled, “It’s all right. I predicted that I wouldn’t overcome this challenge alone. But against all odds, having your mother cover for me, so Father Emperor wasn’t really affected.”
“My cultivation base has dropped to Saint Rank, and you say it wasn’t affected,” Sally walked to his side, “I’ve also had a bad feeling these past few days. I never expected it to actually be about you…”
“Why can’t it be me? On the path of cultivation, there is no distinction between male and female, high or low, noble or humble. It’s just that I couldn’t kill the Demon Slave. I hope Welly and the others can capture her and eliminate this hidden danger.”
“Demon Slave?” Sally was surprised.
Zi Qi gently patted Xiaoqi and Little Miqi and replied, “The servant of the Demon Ancestor, she’s the one who ambushed me.”

“I had completely forgotten about the Demon Ancestor,” Sally frowned, “The last place the Demon Ancestor died was at the Ancestral Dragon Tomb. If the Demon Slave is still alive, then the Demon Ancestor must not be completely dead either. The Ancestral Dragon deceived me!”
“What did he deceive you about?” Zi Qi was surprised.
Sally briefly explained what happened in the Ancestral Dragon Tomb, then scoffed, “I need to settle this account with him properly.”
Zi Qi replied, “The Ancestral Dragon must have had his difficulties too. Speaking of which, he and the Demon Ancestor were contemporaries; perhaps they were close friends.”
“So my daughter deserves to be bullied, her talent stolen?” If it weren’t for the Ancestral Dragon hiding the fact that the Demon Ancestor was not dead, she would never have allowed this danger to persist.
If the Demon Ancestor were truly extinct, Zi Qi wouldn’t have undergone this trial.
The more Sally thought about it, the angrier she became, her gaze falling back to her two daughters in his arms, filled with remorse, “You two should no longer disturb Father Emperor. Go back to the Divine Realm for school.”
Xiaoqi timidly looked at Zi Qi, “Father Emperor…”
“Go back, I’m fine now,” Zi Qi patted their backs, “Study hard, it won’t be long before your Father Emperor ascends to the Divine Realm, then I can be with you often.”
“Mm. Father Emperor, rest and cultivate, Xiaoqi will come to see you again.” Xiaoqi nuzzled Zi Qi’s neck.
Zi Qi couldn’t help but smile, then he patted Little Miqi’s head, “After returning to the Divine Realm, practice your talent for traversing space, and don’t wander around recklessly.”
“Okay, Little Miqi will practice diligently,” Little Miqi responded.
Zi Qi nodded, “Go back.”
Sally looked at Zi Qi, “Although your body is fine, your spiritual path must have been affected; you should go to Jiushen Mountain for seclusion for a while. The Immortal Spirit Qi is rich there.”
“No need, I’m fine here,” Zi Qi looked outside the hall, “Besides, Duanmu Yunhua, I need to teach him some things, and also take him to greet various clans in the Immortal Realm.”
“You want him to succeed as the Eastern Immortal Emperor?” Sally was surprised, “But does his strength command the respect of the clans in the Immortal Realm?”
“I still need to stay in the Immortal Realm for a while longer, I will help him cultivate.”
“But the Eastern Immortal Realm is mostly inhabited by the Monster Beast Clan, and since he is a Human Cultivator, can he manage?”
“Heavenly Dao Flourishing Human Clan, I simply acted according to the situation. He carries the luck of the Emperor. Moreover, he himself has a cause and effect relationship with the Heavenly Dao.”
Sally remembered the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao and its relationship with Duanmu Yunhua…
“Yes, his luck is indeed good. I will send these two girls back first, and you should focus on Cultivation. I will come to see you later.”
“Alright,” Zi Qi replied.
After Sally left, Zi Qi couldn’t help but let a trace of golden-red blood spill from the corners of his mouth.
Duanmu Yunhua hurried in, “Your Majesty, please take care of your health. If you can’t overcome the Tribulation, heart demons may invade at any time, affecting your Dao heart.”
“It’s fine,” Zi Qi asked him to leave first.
After Duanmu Yunhua left, a vague shadow gradually appeared behind Zi Qi; he had an excessively demonic look, with purple hair and fierce eyes, and his whole body emitted Demonic Qi.
“Because of her child, you were utterly destroyed, yet now she throws herself into the arms of another male. Are you content?” The shadow whispered close to Zi Qi’s ear, with a sinister laugh.
Zi Qi completely ignored him; it was his heart demon. It existed only in his consciousness, invisible and unfelt by anyone else.
Gradually, the heart demon merged back into his body.
…
Sally sent Xiaoqi and Little Miqi back to Divine Beast University.
Then she found Qing Linghuan and told him about Zi Qi’s failure to transcend the life-and-death tribulation.
Qing Linghuan was somewhat surprised, “With his intellect, it should not be possible. Even if children mistakenly interfere, you just need to eliminate them.”
“The fact is just so. Although it appeared that he had no issues, I always felt it shouldn’t be so simple. Could you please check on him for me?”
Qing Linghuan grabbed Sally’s left wrist, “Has he not re-marked you with the Partner Mark?”
“… It might be that he forgot, as Xiaoqi and Little Miqi were there, and he was preoccupied with consoling them, he hardly spoke with me,” Sally felt no problem with it.
Qing Linghuan looked at her with narrow, enchanting eyes, “Yanyan, even Jian, that guy, would deceive you around the clock once he knows you do not carry a Partner Mark, and then secretly mark you. Given Zi Qi’s meticulousness, he should have re-marked you immediately.”
“…,” Sally furrowed her brows.
“Which of the children has the Talent to purify demonic natures?” Qing Linghuan asked.
“Any Angel can,” Sally’s pupils slightly focused. “Are you suggesting that Zi Qi might be possessed?”
“Not might, definitely. After the failure of the Tribulation, a heart demon is generated. If it can’t be removed quickly, he might even fall into Demonhood eventually. Divine Beast University is about to have a long holiday; arrange for the children to stay at Eastern Immortal Palace with Zi Qi. If anything is wrong, those children will sense it. Additionally, Xiao Zhaozhao is sensitive to demon natures, especially heart demons, due to his affinity with Demon Laws!”
“… What about Welly?”
“Welly won’t work; he will cause Zi Qi’s heart demon to hide even deeper. But the children, even if Zi Qi is initially cautious, he can’t be on guard every moment.”
“Alright. You arrange this; I need to make a trip to the Ancestral Dragon Tomb,” Sally’s expression was uneasy.
“You’re going to find the Ancestral Dragon for what?” Qing Linghuan eyed her… It seemed like she was preparing for a battle!
Suddenly, he was moved, “I will accompany you!”
“Didn’t I just instruct you to take the children to Eastern Immortal Palace?” Sally looked at him.
“Anyone can take them, but accompanying you is more important,” Qing Linghuan’s emotions clearly carried excitement.
Sally: “…”
His intentions were too obvious.
But could he really defeat the Ancestral Dragon?
…
