The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 810 - 316 I Became a Father
The higher one gets in cultivation, the more dangerous and challenging the trials become.
Like in the past, when Lin Yun’s cultivation level was low, if he stole something, he always had time to run away.
But now, with the Four Great Demon Venerables all present, no matter how mysterious Canglan’s Divine Arts are, they can hardly help Lin Yun escape this calamity.
Yet the most terrifying thing of all is the awakening of the Demon Lord, to the point where even Xiao Qing, who used to be trustworthy, can no longer be trusted.
Xiao Qing originally had some connection with Qing Nu, and since Lin Yun had not yet fallen out with Qing Nu, it was as if nothing had happened.
Now that he has lost the Statue of Qing Nu and Xiao Qing has shown unusual behavior, betraying him, it becomes difficult for Lin Yun to fully trust her again.
Trust is hard to build and can be destroyed by a small detail.
But now is not the time for internal strife; with the arrival of the Four Great Demon Venerables and the awakening of the Demon Emperor, Lin Yun and the two little demon maidservants seemed to have the word "death" written on their foreheads. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Especially Wu Xin.
Originally thought to be a Demon Princess happily seeking support, but realizing that she herself is the Demon Emperor is not necessarily a good thing.
You see, she is just a spirit split from the Demon Emperor, and once she returns to the original body, she will become the Demon Emperor and no longer be Wu Xin.
And Hu Yuling, a minion like her who dares to barge into the Demon Emperor’s Sleeping Palace, will surely have a death sentence.
As for Xiao Qing...
She now radiates azure light, looking majestic, as if a faint image of the Azure Dragon can be seen circling around her. It’s unclear if this is the remnant power of the ancient Azure Dragon or Xiao Qing’s own power manifesting.
In any case, she’s exceptionally brave now!
However, the great battle Lin Yun worried about did not break out. After the Four Great Demon Venerables arrived, they were surprised to see so many people in the Demon Emperor’s Sleeping Palace, yet they didn’t dare to make a move.
Because the Demon Emperor sat up from the Crystal Coffin.
She shares the same face as Wu Xin, but clearly has more authority, with indifferent eyes sweeping over the Four Great Demon Venerables who all bowed their heads as a sign of submission.
The might of the Demon Emperor is indeed not to be underestimated.
Subsequently, the Demon Emperor’s gaze finally fell on Wu Xin, as if with special meaning.
Only Lin Yun had a suspicion—could it be that lying dormant for so long has muddled her?
She looks cold and handsome, but amidst this coolness and handsomeness, there is a hint of clever cunning.
As expected, she first looked dazed, and then revealed a shocked expression.
"How did I become so small!"
Lin Yun: "..."
Indeed, she is muddled from sleep.
The Four Great Demon Venerables were all waiting for the Demon Emperor to speak. The Demon Emperor had been asleep for so many years, her first words upon waking ought to be a powerful declaration of her return!
Purple Lightning had even thought out a speech for her: "Purple, Red, Blue, Aqua, your Emperor has returned!"
However, once the Demon Emperor spoke, the built-up atmosphere completely fell flat.
Red Silk and You Lan also heaved a sigh of relief.
They were truly afraid when the Demon Emperor’s gaze swept over them.
Why did the Demon Emperor have to awaken at such a critical moment?
They were set to take action tonight!
Red Silk and You Lan both had a sense of misfortune in their fate.
Now that the Demon Emperor has awakened, they can only think of ways to hide everything they have done before.
After all, without evidence, the Demon Emperor wouldn’t necessarily kill them.
If it really came to a dangerous moment, they might just have a chance if they join forces.
The Demon Emperor’s power should have declined after so many years of slumber.
The two Demon Venerables exchanged glances, each making their own calculations.
And faced with the Demon Emperor, Wu Xin also displayed her quick wits.
She doesn’t want to merge back into the Demon Emperor, she wants to be herself!
Since the Demon Emperor had awakened, there was only one way for her to survive.
"You’ve mistaken me for someone else, I’m not who you think I am."
Having said that, she quickly moved behind Lin Yun and hugged him.
She couldn’t face the Demon Emperor; this fear came from deep within her.
Wu Xin understood that the Demon Emperor was the original entity, while she was merely a part of the consciousness split from him, not the entirety of the Demon Emperor’s mind.
This seemed to be a slight deviation from the Demon Emperor’s plan; she was supposed to be feigning sleep.
Yet, she had no memories of the Demon Emperor and was also clueless about how she ended up in the Mortal Realm after twists and turns.
In any case, she and the Demon Emperor existed at the same time now; the Demon Emperor as the main body, and she as the avatar.
Not wanting to be assimilated, Lin Yun was her only hope.
The Demon Emperor’s gaze also shifted to Lin Yun due to Wu Xin’s evasion.
Seeing Lin Yun, she displayed a look of confusion, then her intelligent eyes began to analyze, gradually becoming brighter and brighter, as if about to shine.
Lin Yun could feel the Demon Emperor’s excitement.
"Father!"
The Demon Emperor joyfully called out, stepping out of the Crystal Coffin as if a swallow returning to its nest, arms wide open, she lunged at Lin Yun.
Lin Yun was stunned on the spot. Am I suddenly a father?
Before he could react, the Demon Emperor had already plunged into his arms, her head nuzzling against his shoulder happily, with an appearance that did not seem feigned.
Now, Lin Yun was having doubts.
He had always known that his relationship with the Demon Race was somewhat murky, but he also possessed the power of a God, so it was unlikely he was purely of the Demon Race. Lin Yun had always suspected that he might be the illegitimate child of some Great Demon and the Divine Emperor, until Purple Lightning appeared, informing him that his lineage was even nobler than that of a Great Demon...
And now, the Demon Emperor was calling him ’Dad.’
According to what Purple Lightning said, the Demon Emperor was the daughter of the Demon Ancestor.
Well, this was something. Pretending to be the Demon Ancestor, and it turns out he actually was?
"The prophecy was indeed correct, when I woke up, you, Father, appeared. Don’t leave me again, okay?"
Lin Yun: "..."
I hadn’t expected that, at nineteen, I would suddenly have a daughter who was at least tens of thousands of years old.
Seeing the expectant look in the Demon Emperor’s eyes, Lin Yun didn’t know what to do.
He wasn’t sure whether to keep hiding his identity and deceive the Demon Emperor, or outright deny it.
Right now, the Demon Emperor looked nothing more than a little girl yearning for her father.
"I may not be your father; perhaps you’ve mistaken me for someone else."
Lin Yun chose to be honest; it didn’t feel right to deceive someone into believing he was their father.
"But you are! It’s just that you’re not as powerful as before, but it’s okay, Yiyi will protect you from now on."
Lin Yun: "..."
This daughter was too filial, Lin Yun felt unable to refuse her.
Moreover, with the current situation, Lin Yun had previously been unable to think of a solution, but suddenly the Demon Emperor recognizing him as her father opened an unforeseen path that resolved the crisis.
Even if the Four Great Demon Venerables were to arrive, who would dare to lay a hand on him?
Since he was acknowledged as the father by the Demon Emperor herself, he couldn’t be blamed for fooling her.
"Your name is Yiyi? Then what’s your surname?"
Lin Yun decided to start bonding with the Demon Emperor through some small details.
Honestly, the name Yiyi really didn’t seem to fit the identity of the Demon Emperor; her real father might be quite lackluster, giving her such a common name.
As Lin Yun asked, he was internally ranting, while the Demon Emperor looked at her silly dad with doting eyes and said, "Of course, I share the same surname as Father. My surname is Lin, Lin Yiyi."
Lin Yun: "..."
What a coincidence?
Wait, could I actually be her father?
