The Immortal Lord was very helpless. They had been married for three years now, and during these three years, there had been no shortage of immortals coming to complain.
The youth would cause trouble and then run away. Even if those immortals found him, they couldn’t catch or defeat him, so they could only come to her to seek justice.
“Calculate the losses from the immortal herb garden and let me know. I will compensate for them.”
“Bing Qing, I will send your little daughter back to your mansion tomorrow, guaranteed to be safe and sound, don’t worry.”
“As for Zui Jin, why don’t you take your wife and child to live in Lanshan Cloud Realm for a while? The spiritual energy is more abundant there, more suitable for recuperation.”
She appeased these immortals one by one, and then had to deal with the Demon King from the Demon Realm.
“Demon Queen, the Demon Lord hasn’t returned to the Demon Realm for nearly half a year. There are important matters in the Demon Realm that require the Lord’s attention. Please don’t monopolize the Demon Lord.”
The Immortal Lord slightly raised her eyebrows, catching a glimpse of a small head peeking eagerly from outside the door.
Fu Yuan turned back sharply, but the youth had already withdrawn in time, concealing his presence.
Moreover, there was a faint spiritual energy lingering in this place, so Fu Yuan didn’t notice anything unusual and turned back.
“I understand. I will relay the message when he returns. You may go back first.”
“Please keep your word, Demon Queen.”
Fu Yuan didn’t want to stay long in the Celestial Realm either. Unlike the Demon Lord, staying too long would allow spiritual energy to invade him, which was harmful. So he had to wrap himself in demon energy, which was quite troublesome.
After Fu Yuan left, the youth finally jumped out and came to sit beside her, grabbing the cup of flower dew on the table and drinking it dry.
The wide chair was large enough to seat two people. The Immortal Lord leaned over, pressing him back. The youth was forced to lean back, his head resting on the armrest, his eyes blinking in bewilderment.
“What… what are you doing?”
“You’re asking me? Don’t you know what you’ve done?”
Such a little troublemaker, never willing to settle down.
The youth guiltily averted his eyes, but was enveloped by her intense gaze, unable to escape.
“I didn’t do anything…”
He suddenly raised his face and kissed her lips, trying to muddle through, but the Immortal Lord remained unmoved.
“I’ve already sent Little Yuan’er back. I didn’t lose her.”
The youth said softly, his fingers poking at each other in front of him.
“She called me Susu. How could I resist? Besides, she was willing to come out and play with me.”
Since they couldn’t have their own baby, naturally he coveted others’.
The Immortal Lord sighed, raising her right hand, her long sleeve falling.
“You’ve almost played yourself into a little coal ball.”
She gently wiped his eyebrows, brushing away the dust, her voice filled with helplessness.
Hearing this, the youth knew she wouldn’t blame him. He hugged her and gave her another kiss.
“It’s not dirty, I washed before coming back!”
She pinched his nose. Although she doted on him, she still needed to educate him no matter what.
“Your identity is special. It’s understandable that Bing Qing doesn’t feel at ease letting you take his daughter away. Don’t do it again next time, you hear me?”
“Oh.”
The youth responded dejectedly. The Immortal Lord continued:
“You can discuss it with Bing Qing beforehand, let him know about it, so he won’t worry about his daughter being lost.”
The youth’s eyes lit up again: “Oh, so that’s how it can be done!”
Learned something new, indeed. As expected, Immortal sister always has a solution.
The Immortal Lord pressed down on the youth and educated him for quite a while. His cheeks turned slightly red, and towards the end, he could only respond with breathless agreements, being extremely obedient.
“You heard everything Fu Yuan said too. When do you plan to go back?”
He wrapped his arms around her neck, his mind somewhat clearer, a trace of distress appearing on his small face.
“I don’t want to go back.”
Going back means having to work, which is not as enjoyable as playing outside.
“Do you still remember that you are the Demon Lord?”
“Aren’t they all calling me Immortal Consort now?”
Spoiled beyond measure, he said righteously. The Immortal Lord smiled helplessly.
“You’ve certainly let go of your responsibilities with enthusiasm. If this continues, won’t your subordinates come to hate me, the Demon Queen who’s monopolizing the Demon Lord?”
“They wouldn’t dare!” The youth furrowed his brows fiercely, “I’ll make them cry!”
“……”
“The Demon Lord is so powerful.”
“Mm-hmm.”
He raised his chin proudly, completely unaware that he was still being pressed down on the chair by her.
“But if you continue to be so idle, what if they lose faith in you in the future?”
“But I don’t want to be apart from you.”
The youth’s voice was filled with distress. The Immortal Lord smiled slightly.
“How about I go with you this time?”
The youth was somewhat excited, but after a moment, he became a bit worried.
“But the Demon Realm isn’t very nice-looking…”
“It’s alright, I want to see where you grew up.”
The clear voice flowed into his heart, and the youth suddenly felt as if he had eaten honey, the corners of his mouth lifting.
“Then you can’t dislike it, okay?”
“Of course I won’t.”
“Okay, then I’ll take you home!”

Regarding the matter of the Demon Lord bringing the Demon Queen back to the Demon Realm, the four Demon Kings inwardly marveled–
The Demon Lord has grown up!
But when they heard that the couple wouldn’t be staying for long, that slight excitement gradually subsided.
As expected, the Demon Lord was still the same Demon Lord.
Never staying at home!
But no matter what, it was good that he knew to come back. The accumulated issues could finally be resolved by someone!
However, the Demon Kings didn’t know how their Demon Lord was wheedling in the Demon Palace, pawning off those affairs to the Demon Queen.
“There are so many characters in these documents, my head hurts. Can you look at them for me?”
“Are you sure?”
“Or you could read them to me, that works too.”
On the obsidian bed covered with expensive fur rugs, the youth was rolling around, looking at her with watery eyes.
The Immortal Lord standing by the bed shook her head, opened those documents, and began reading line by line.
The language of the demon race had always been straightforward, unlike the flowery prose of the Celestial Realm. She didn’t know what exactly was giving him a headache.
But there was nothing she could do. Who told her to have such a delicate young man?
With her help, the youth’s work efficiency increased considerably. In his spare time, he took her wandering around the Demon Realm.
The only thing worth showing off in the Demon Realm was the obsidian. He brought her to a mining area and said very grandly:
“Look, this is the territory I’ve conquered for you. You can have as much as you want!”
She raised her hand to stroke the youth’s fluffy head, the corners of her lips curling into a smile.
“I only want you.”
The youth’s eyes curved in delight: “I’m already yours!”
Under the dark red sky, she cupped his small face and placed a cherished kiss.
“That’s enough.”
At that moment, even the sound of the wind brushing by became faint. The world turned quiet. The two, embracing tenderly, were bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, exuding warmth and affection.
At this time, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared on the western horizon. The Fallen Sky Secret Realm abruptly split open, black mist condensed, winds and clouds surged, pressing down gloomily on the surroundings.
