Hello, sorry for the late/missing releases. The translator has been busy recently. We will try to make up for the missing releases as soon as possible.
"Something more important..." Ye Tianshen repeated those words in confusion. What can be more important than being the lord of the Demon Realm?
Moreover, he even saw the Demon Lord smile blissfully! He had never seen this before!
He did not know that the Demon Lord could smile like this!
Was this the same Demon Lord he knew?
Since Ye Tianshen found him, Ning Yechen had no intention of hiding the truth. He cleared his throat and said in an official tone, "I have to take care of my wife and daughter, so I don't have time to be the Demon Lord. Don't look for me again."
Um... Uh... Huh? What? Oh god! The moment Ye Tianshen heard this, a storm assaulted his mind. For a moment, he thought he heard wrongly! The Demon Lord got married? He even has a child! T-this is impossible!
When he was the Demon Lord, he was never interested in women. Suddenly, he even had a child. Ye Tianshen found it utterly unbelievable.
The Demon Lord went into seclusion for over a century and even had a child!
If this news got back to the Demon Realm, it would stir up a huge commotion!
Ye Tianshen asked stiffly, "R-really, Demon Lord?"
Ning Yechen smiled and nodded.
He suddenly felt the joy of a father sharing the good news of having a daughter.
When Ye Tianshen heard Ning Yechen's answer, his shocked expression gradually changed into joy. "Congratulations on finding a wife and having a little princess, Demon Lord! I will share this happy news with everyone in the Demon Realm! We will prepare to welcome the consort and the little princess back to the Demon Realm!"
Ye Tianshen could not wait to send a message back to inform the entire Demon Realm.
Ning Yechen hurriedly stopped Ye Tianshen. He glanced at him speechlessly and emphasized, "I told you I'm not the Demon Lord anymore. I am going to live in seclusion with my wife and daughter, so I'm not going back. Stop looking for me. I don't want anyone to disturb my life with my family. Got it?"
If he let Ye Tianshen tell everyone in the Demon Realm, he would have no peace from now on.
He wanted a happy and peaceful life without anyone disturbing him!
"B-but..." Ye Tianshen said unwillingly. But he stopped when Ning Yechen cast a cold look at him.
"No buts. Have I left for so long that you don't understand what I'm saying?"
In this instant, Ning Yechen put on his Demon Lord air, leaving Ye Tianshen in a cold sweat. He did not dare to continue going against the Demon Lord's order and shut his mouth obediently.
"Since you understand, I'm going. My wife has waited for a long time, and I'm sure she's worried. I have to rush back." Ning Yechen waved his hand. He wanted to go back to Luo Ruying.
Ye Tianshen's face was full of curiosity.
The moment the Demon Lord brought up his wife and child, he became incredibly gentle.
The Demon Lord has changed.
Just as Ning Yechen was about to leave, Ye Tianshen snapped out of his thoughts and remembered something important.
He still hadn't figured out why his subordinates had attacked the Demon Lord!
This was no small matter!
"Demon Lord, one moment, please. May I ask if my subordinates have offended you?" Ye Tianshen's face was glacial. The murderous aura instantly permeated into the air. It was so cold and frightening that it could pierce people's bones like needles.
He did not ask how Ye Zheng offended Ning Yechen. Instead, he merely asked if his men did it.
No matter their reasons, offending the Demon Lord was as good as rebellion. In the Demon Realm, it was unforgivable and punishable by death!
Hearing this, Ye Zheng and the man in black broke out in a cold sweat, and their faces turned ashen.
Ning Yechen turned his head and said nonchalantly, "Although they attacked me, on account they're your subordinates, I will forgive them."
"Forgive me! My men shouldn't have disrespected you! I deserve a thousand deaths! Please give the order to punish me." Ye Tianshen knelt on one knee and implored.
"How many times must I tell you? I am not the Demon Lord anymore! Leave now. Don't interfere with my life." Ning Yechen looked at Ye Tianshen in contempt and quickly left.
No matter what he said, Ye Tianshen continued treating him as the Demon Lord. This made him helpless.
It was not good for subordinates to be overly devoted and passionate.
Seeing that Ning Yechen did not intend to punish him, Ye Tianshen raised his hand and aimed for his chest!
He had offended the Demon Lord and had to bear punishment!
Although the Demon Lord did not plan to hold him responsible, he could not forgive himself.
Ning Yechen looked at Ye Tianshen speechlessly.
Even though he knew his subordinate's personality, he did not know what to say when Ye Tianshen wanted to drive his hand through his chest.
The people of the Demon Realm were too stubborn!
He wanted to let it slide, but Ye Tianshen insisted on punishing himself.
It was the same each time!
Ning Yechen wondered if the people from the Demon Realm were masochistic.
After punishing himself, Ye Tianshen looked at Ye Zheng and the man in black coldly. He raised his hand, and a dark light swallowed the man in black.
He aimed his hand at Ye Zheng!
As the demonic general of the 1^st^ Legion, his subordinate was rude to the Demon Lord, so he had done wrong in terms of discipline and deserved punishment.
Ye Zheng attacked the Demon Lord and had to die for it!
Ye Zheng knew this well enough. He silently closed his eyes and did not beg for mercy.
When he found out Ning Yechen was the Demon Lord, he had already seen this coming.
Just as Ye Tianshen was about to take action, Ning Yechen stopped him. "Enough. Let him go."
On account that Ye Zheng did not know his true identity at the beginning and did not bring any real threat to his wife and daughter, he could forgive him.
"Demon Lord, he disrespected you!" Ye Tianshen frowned. He did not put down his hand and did not have the intention of letting Ye Zheng off easy.
"He was just instigated by someone. I won't hold him accountable. Just let him off," Ning Yechen said.
"Okay, as you order, Demon Lord. I will let you off this time." Ye Tianshen put down his hand reluctantly.
If he could act according to his wishes, Ye Zheng would die.
But since the Demon Lord had spoken, he could reluctantly forgive Ye Zheng.
Moreover, he could get information from Ye Zheng.
He wanted to know who had the audacity to instruct someone from the Demon Realm to attack the Demon Lord.
Having fortunately escaped death, Ye Zheng hurriedly knelt and thanked Ning Yechen. "Thank you for your forgiveness, Demon Lord!"
Just when he thought he would die, the Demon Lord personally spoke on his behalf!
Ye Zheng was full of gratitude.
"I am leaving. Remember, don't disturb me!"
Now that things were settled, Ning Yechen did not linger and quickly disappeared.
Ye Tianshen helplessly watched Ning Yechen leave, feeling extremely reluctant.
Fortunately, he had finally found the Demon Lord.
He had to share the good news with the others as soon as possible!
