What happened in Chapter 231?
[Lan Yue: To be fair, the Demon Clan went to great lengths during that period, but they can only blame themselves for not conducting thorough investigations beforehand. They didn't know the origin of the Northern Ridge Holy Son's bloodline, nor did they know that the two were mortal enemies. They arranged for them to be brothers, thinking their plan had succeeded.]
[They even sent a demon king and a demon general to act as the parents of the Cloud Sect Master and the Holy Son, putting on a real-life role-playing game, determined to raise two extremely filial sons. Who knew that even with his memories temporarily erased, the Holy Son of Northern Ridge sensed something was amiss and remained highly suspicious of these so-called parents.]
"Sect Master Yun, did the Demon Clan really have such a conspiracy back then? Not only did they capture you, they even found people to impersonate your parents. If they had succeeded, wouldn't you have been successfully brainwashed?" Sect Master Chiyue felt somewhat terrified.
She was only at the Golden Core stage at the time. If she had been the one captured, she probably wouldn't have come back!
It's fortunate that she wasn't in the sect during that time, but instead went on an adventure in the Eastern Region, otherwise she would definitely have suffered a terrible fate!
Yun Chong shook his head, his expression unchanged: "I don't remember any of these things. I have no experience with anything that happened in the Demon Realm. As for what exactly happened back then, I'm afraid we'll have to hear Lan Yue's account."
He secretly communicated with the leader of the Crimson Moon Sect.
Of course, the other person, the Holy Son of Beiling, must also know very well. It's just that he doesn't know why the other party hasn't come looking for him all these years. Could it be that some misunderstanding happened back then?
Yun Chong thought that the two were originally mortal enemies, and people from the North and South regions often compared the two of them. He found it hard to believe that the two of them would have a daughter.
If it weren't for the clues provided by the celestial artifact, he certainly wouldn't have believed that this was true.
[Lan Yue: I'm dying of laughter! The Holy Son of Beiling realized the source of the problem was that the Demon King who played their father was just too ugly! Ugly to the point of shocking the heavens and earth! The Holy Son of Beiling even asked him again and again, "How could such an ugly demon like you give birth to two such handsome sons?"]
[This infuriated the demon king, who was playing the role of the father. He glared at his two "good sons" and left their "home" that very night, refusing to take on the task again.]
[After all, for the sake of the demon race's plans, they needed to cultivate good relationships with these human prodigies. They couldn't hit them, couldn't scold them, and had to endure their mistreatment every day. This was far too difficult for the demon king, so he slipped away, leaving only one demon general to hold on.]
Not far from the Holy Land of Beiling, the Demon King who had once instigated Pu Chou to come and replace the Holy Son also secretly rushed over in his clone and eavesdropped from the corner of the wall.
He originally didn't want to sneak over by attaching himself to the paper, but since he hadn't completed such an important task, he couldn't very well go back to the Demon King's Palace to report back.
It would be fine if those demon generals failed to complete their mission, but he is a demon king who holds real power. He finally showed interest in getting involved, so how could he just slink back like that?
A hundred years ago, he had botched a mission and returned in disgrace, only to be severely reprimanded by the other demon kings in the Demon King's Palace.
This time, he must avenge this humiliation and find a way to salvage the mission! As long as the true Holy Son hasn't returned, there's still a chance!
So he quickly turned back to see what was going on, why the people from the Northern Ridge Holy Land were so vigilant, discovering the existence of the fake Holy Son at a glance, and even brainwashing him using some unknown method.
No matter how much he urged him, Pu Chou refused to do anything. He even lay there in despair, refusing to move no matter what.
However, as soon as the demon king sneaked near the holy mountain, he heard a rather familiar voice.
Such an ugly demon, so ugly it's shocking and awe-inspiring.
These two sentences echoed in his mind again and again. At this moment, the Demon King's face turned red with anger, and his two curved horns were almost stained red.
So what if he's a little ugly? What does a demon king need to be so beautiful for?
Wait, how exactly was his previous mission leaked?
Besides that damned Holy Son of the Northern Ridge, are there other people who know this?
The Demon King's outburst had turned the paper figures he possessed completely red, leaving him disheveled in the wind, the paper figures swaying back and forth.
It's that Holy Son of Beiling again! Why is he so persistent?
No matter how angry and agitated His Highness the Demon King was, Lan Yue continued to watch the drama unfold.
Unbeknownst to everyone watching, one of the deputy demon generals, who was bound inside a palace near the holy mountain, suddenly changed his expression.
The deputy demon general from the Crimson Demon General's Mansion looked at the other party curiously, and even secretly nudged the other party's arm.
"What's wrong with you? Wasn't this supposed to be a demon general? Why do you look so strange? Is this demon general your brother?"
The deputy demon general, disguised as the manager of the Northern Ridge Holy Land, twitched his lips, not admitting that the little girl was talking about him.
He absolutely refuses to acknowledge this dark history!
