Fox Demon: Why did your brother beat you up every day at the beginning of the month?

While Honghong was fast asleep, the three of them examined her memories. Haoyang Yuechu and Rongrong astutely noticed something amiss: some of Honghong's past memories were blacked out, and the memories that should have appeared on the screen were completely black.

It looks like it's been altered by someone...

Of course, what was altered did not include her fondness for the beginning of the month, which was a memory from a long time ago, but it could still affect Honghong's consciousness.

Dongfang Haoyang left Dao Yuechu's divine sense inside and strengthened his own magical power.

Since she is his sister-in-law, he would naturally protect her personally at the beginning of the month. He would protect his own wife and wouldn't leave his consciousness behind.

"That guy named Feng Qi, Sister Rongrong said he was the former king of Tushan, but he has now betrayed Tushan and escaped..."

Dongfang Yuechu gently rubbed his chin, revealing a thoughtful expression like a schoolboy from the anime "Death God".

"Besides, I always feel something's not right. Feng Qi should be considered the Fairy Sister's wet nurse, so why did she turn against her and defect from Tushan in the end?!"

"I always felt that the young Taoist priest who died was also related to this Phoenix Perch."

"Brother, don't you think so?"

Dongfang Yuechu looked up and saw that his brother Haoyang was already lying comfortably on the down bed, covered with a small quilt, and lazily stretching. Yuechu's eyes twitched at the sight.

"Oh well, that's your problem now. I've done all I can to help you. The rest is up to your luck."

Haoyang said something indifferently, then lay down on the bed and soon began to snore evenly.

Dongfang Yuechu's lips twitched, and he scratched his head helplessly, beginning to think of a solution.

Haoyang was unwilling to get too involved in the complicated relationship between his younger brother and that yellow-haired fox demon.

Every day, besides cultivating (ten minutes), handling government affairs (five minutes), adjusting the policies of Tushan to benefit the people (five minutes), listening to secret reports (five minutes), and observing the situation of the world with his Dharma Eye (twenty minutes) (total time occupied: 45 minutes).

I also spent half a day getting close to Rongrong and Yaya to increase our "intimacy level," and the rest of the time was used to make future plans and to cultivate my military strength, the Tiger Might Army.

He had no time to concern himself with his brother's affairs and that yellow-haired fox demon.

Let the two parties involved experience this whole mess; I'm too lazy to get involved.

If things hadn't been on the verge of spiraling out of control, his brother's pursuit of him for over a year would have been ruined by that idiot Lord Mutian's letter.

He caused Tu Shan Hong Hong to close herself off emotionally and cruelly kick her brother away. He wouldn't interfere with this sycophant who was about to be won over.

After all, even an upright official finds it difficult to settle family disputes.

If it were just his brother's unrequited love between the two, he could ignore it.

But damn it, that yellow-haired fox demon was clearly in love too. If it weren't for that letter, Haoyang predicted that if things continued like this, he would only have to wait until the beginning of the month to reach adulthood!

His brother and Honghong were about to get married when that damned Lord Mutian interfered. Who the hell could tolerate that?

Dongfang Yuechu sat cross-legged on the ground, deep in thought for a long time, and finally decided! I should just wash up and go to sleep...

With his current strength at the peak of the Lesser Demon Realm, killing a chicken would be a struggle. For a battle between gods of this level, his brother Haoyang is all that's needed. He just needs to obediently lie down and win, and take care of the Fairy Demon Sister's emotions every day, and he'll definitely win.

After all, his older brother is invincible.

…………

Bijian Lake is the home of the leech spirits.

"Chieftain, Jade Phoenix has drugged several guards and escaped..."

Jade Phoenix slowly opened its third eye on its forehead, gazing at the dim night sky filled with dark clouds. After a moment of contemplation, it sighed and tucked its slightly disheveled dark green hair behind its ear.

"I understand... You may leave..."

"Yes."

The leech maid who delivered the message bowed slightly and slowly walked away.

"Mingluan, do you really hate being in the clan that much... or have you still not forgiven your older sister?"

Cui Yuling smiled sadly, her beautiful face revealing an unconcealed sense of loss. She gently shook her head, slowly took out a communication flying sword from her bosom, and transmitted a wisp of her consciousness into it. Soon, the flying sword disappeared into the void...

After successfully escaping her sister's guard, Cuiyu Mingluan sped towards the North Mountain, even though she was still locked in the iron cage.

She overheard the guards' conversation and learned that the Lord of Mutian City seemed to have a way to resurrect the dead demons. She wanted to go to Mutian City to ask the Lord of Mutian City to resurrect his beloved disciple, Cuiyu Xiaotan.

However, the Jade Phoenix, who was flying rapidly towards the North Mountain with its demonic power fully unleashed, did not notice the faintly glowing, fiery red talisman with a lotus pattern on her back.

In a remote area near the northern mountains on the border of the human race, a handsome three-eyed boy wearing a blue robe with white sleeves was kneeling sadly in front of a small grave.

The stone tablet in front of the grave mound is inscribed with the words: "Tomb of the loving mother, Yang Yan..."

"Mother... your child is leaving. I'm going to find my brother. Everyone says he's missing, or even... dead... but I don't believe it. Brother Yi Tan is so strong. He's the closest person to me besides you. I must find him."

The boy kneeling on the ground, kowtowing three times to the tombstone, is named Mu Mie.

The three-eyed boy bowed deeply to the tombstone as he spoke.

"Your son is unfilial. I will come back to pay respects to my mother at this time next year... Also, my grandfather came yesterday. I could see the guilt in his eyes. He didn't even dare to look me in the eye..."

Mu Mie sighed and looked up at the dark night sky where not a single ray of moonlight could be seen.

"If Mother were watching from heaven, would you forgive him...?"

The young man pondered for a moment, then sighed, stood up, dusted off his legs, and slung the precious sword with its mahogany scabbard and gold lace trim over his back.

"Don't worry, Mother, I will take good care of myself, and I will definitely find Cousin Yitan."

After saying this, the three-eyed boy walked towards the opposite path of the North Mountain Road, heading towards the thatched hut where he had lived for more than ten years, and his figure gradually disappeared into the night sky.

Seven days later...

The northern border of the human race.

"Is this Baiyu Village?" Cuiyu Mingluan looked at the small village ahead, her eyes flickering slightly, but her wariness deepened, because she had seen that there were no fields around this village.

She knew that people love money the most, and that grain was the most basic means for the village to exchange for money and to fill their stomachs.

And surprisingly, the village didn't have a single field...

I wonder how these humans earn money and exchange it for silver...

Cui Yumingluan originally planned to fly directly over Baiyu Village, but little did she know that several figures within the village were already watching her.

"Is Brother Mu going to make a move?"

"Hmph! You two can't wait to enjoy this leech essence?"

With a wicked grin, the burly man peered through a telescope-like magical artifact at the leech spirit about to fly overhead in the dimly lit room.

Next to him, the two children who had just spoken were a pockmarked child with orange-red hair and a child with big eyes. They looked very alike, probably twins.
