“What should we do? Qin’er hasn’t returned yet.”

“Where’s Mother Tang Xi? Isn’t Qin’er her adopted daughter?”

“That damned old lady tormented Qin’er every day, yet now, she’s not even bothered about Qin’er’s life?”

They were only making small talk but, moments later, countless black crows soared into the sky. The entire sky darkened, and countless cries rang out. It was the iconic cry of the black crow. Everyone instantly shut up.

After that, a flirtatious woman wrapped in a long black robe walked out. Her eyes looked around in all four directions before her gaze finally settled in the direction of Heavenly Lake Mountain.

She asked with a tense expression, “Is she not back yet?”

One of the demonic beasts replied anxiously, “No! What should we do! We can’t leave the Abyss Realm either.”

“Boom!”

Heavenly Lake Mountain shook again.

The demonic beasts were so frightened that their hearts trembled.

“Could it be that that person is about to wake up? Would the lotus flowers in the other locations also shatter? But that shouldn’t be the case. The lotus flowers are sealed, and no one can get close to them. What happened this time?”

“Our demon race has no enmity with him, so why should we be afraid of him? Who cares what happened! I’m only worried about Qin’er!”

Although they had only known each other for half a year, Tang Qin, this eighteen-year-old girl, was like a baby to these thousand-year-old demonic beasts. At first, they were only curious about how humans were raised. In the end, they grew to have feelings for each other.

A demonic beast was furious. Seeing Mother Tang Xi’s cold face, he could not help but ask, “You’re not worried about Qin’er at all?”

“That’s right! You only treat her as a test subject for your concoctions!”

“if I had known this earlier, I would have raised Qin’er myself!”

One second later, the demonic beasts who had spoken were sent flying thousands of meters away by Mother Tang Xi. The black wings on her back spread out.

As expected of the most powerful demon in the Abyss Realm! When she released some of her spiritual pressure, the surrounding demonic beasts could not help but kneel down and submit. That was the power and bearing of an expert.

“Do you want to die?” Mother Tang Xi’s eyes were bloodshot. After saying that, she ignored them. Clouds of demonic energy appeared around her body and she rushed towards the sealed boundary.

“Mother Tang Xi! Don’t touch the barrier!”

The magical beasts were alarmed. No matter how powerful one was, if they rashly tried to break the barrier, they would definitely be injured by the barrier. In the worst-case scenario, they would be crushed to pieces. If the barrier was so easy to break, none of them would have been sealed here.

At this moment, a petite human figure flew out of the black purple demonic fog and hit Mother Tang Xi.

Coincidentally, the impact stopped Mother Tang Xi from reaching the Abyss Realm boundary.

“Eh? Why didn’t it hurt?”

“When I came back last time, I almost broke my bones…” Tang Qin rubbed her waist.

“Qin’er…”

The demonic beasts trembled as they pointed to the person who was lying under Tang Qin’s butt.

Tang Qin looked down and her expression changed. She was on top of Mother Tang Xi!

She quickly stood up and said, “Don’t get angry! Anger will cause your face to wrinkle! I can explain! This is all a misunderstanding!”

However, moments later, Tang Qin was kicked into the distance, landing on the ground. The impact created a human-sized pit.

“Hahaha! Qin’er has not been beaten in three days!”

The demonic beasts burst out in laughter.

They surrounded Tang Qin. Although they were laughing at her, their actions said otherwise. They pulled her out and checked if she had any wounds.

Tang Qin patted the dust off her body, and then looked in the direction of Heavenly Lake Mountain.

“What’s in that coffin? Was that really a person inside?”

Even though she had just been kicked, she still walked up to Mother Tang Xi. It could not be helped. Mother Tang Xi knew the most.

Mother Tang Xi glanced at Heavenly Lake Mountain indifferently, and said, “That was a man who should have died a long time ago.”

“So he’s back?” Tang Qin frowned.

Everyone looked worriedly at the still-shaking Heavenly Lake Mountain.

Inside the crack on the ground of Heavenly Lake Mountain, the eyelashes of the man lying in the coffin trembled slightly. He had a face that would make people hold their breath unconsciously. The corners of his eyes were upturned, and his skin was so fair that the veins could be seen. Upon closer inspection, his blood was surging, and he exuded a fierce murderous aura.

The more his eyelashes trembled, the more the mountain around him crumbled.

He looked like he was about to open his eyes but, after some time, his eyelashes ceased their movement, and he fell back asleep!

All of the mountains in the Divine Realm fell silent once again.

Mother Tang Xi heaved a sigh of relief.

“Thank God he didn’t wake up.”

Tang Qin raised her eyebrows in surprise.

“All that commotion just now was because he was about to wake up?”

Mother Tang Xi did not answer her. She just turned around and asked unhappily, “Did you not listen to my instructions and touch the lotus?”
