I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 684 - 281 Unromantic Chen 2 (Please Subscribe)

"...In order to join the ’Pure Land of Bliss’ and obtain the magic inheritance, he did not hesitate to destroy the entire Zhou Family... His father, uncles, brothers, and sisters all died in battle at Beixiong Pass because of him."

After Chen Yi finished recounting everything about Zhou Guanwu, a strong killing intent arose in his heart.

Ever since he learned that Zhou Guanwu was not dead and discovered the details of the battle at Beixiong Pass against the Demon Court’s southern invasion, deducing Zhou Guanwu’s cruelty, he has always wanted to kill Zhou Guanwu.

This time, revealing everything to the Half-demon Princess only ignited his murderous intent.

It wasn’t just because of Zhou Guanwu’s ruthless cruelty but also because of the calamities Chen Yuan faced during his childhood—ultimately, without Zhou Guanwu’s cruel actions, Zhou Tiance wouldn’t have thought to "change Chen to Zhou," going mad enough to attack the Chen Family.

Aside from Zhou Guanwu, a greater threat to Chen Yi was the ’Pure Land of Bliss’ that stood behind Zhou Guanwu.

"General," Gu Ying, "Great Sky’s Buddha’s Son" Fu Chen... Once he goes to Taizhou Mountain, he will definitely find them one by one and clean them out!

"Was it like this...?"

Upon learning everything, Xiao Lan’s expression became extremely complicated.

She never imagined that the father she always cared about, whom she thought could shelter her from storms, was a villain who stops at nothing to achieve his goals.

Even the cold and emotionless demons within the Ten Thousand Mountains of the Demon Court rarely trade their bloodline kin for cultivation; the vast majority of demons, like the Emperor Heaven Ancestor, value bloodline heritage.

Yet her biological father...

Compared to Zhou Guanwu, her mother, who prioritized the Demon Court and never cared about her, seemed not so bad.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lan felt a sense of despair. She sat leaning against the edge of the azure-blue water mirror, her delicate and condensed form flickering in and out of sight.

A moment of silence.

Chen Yi calmed the killing intent within his heart, looking at the dejected Half-demon Princess, and spoke calmly:

"I will go kill him!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lan lifted her head, giving him a blank stare, her tone filled with a sense of weak helplessness:

"Even if you don’t make a move against him, he certainly won’t meet a good end."

"To think that I even wanted to go to the Wei Dynasty to find him... He doesn’t deserve to be my father at all!"

Chen Yi was a bit surprised: "Was that your plan before?"

"Mm," Xiao Lan nodded, subconsciously murmuring, "Actually, my life in the Demon Court is not so good..."

"From a young age, I knew I was an oddity in the Demon Imperial Palace. Besides obtaining various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, no kin treated me seriously."

"Even if they appear respectful, it’s only because my mother is the Demon Emperor, and I carry her bloodline; secretly, many discuss me, and even many times openly..."

Xiao Lan curled up her knees, wrapped her arms around her legs, resting her chin, lost in recounting her past. These grievances have been buried in her heart for years, and now, facing Chen Yi, she finally found someone to confide in, unleashing all of them.

Chen Yi watched her quietly. Although he couldn’t empathize completely, he understood what it’s like to keep all secrets buried within oneself.

As a child, he also endured silently when the Zhou Family struck several times. Except for trusting his mother, Xia Wanwan, he didn’t dare trust anyone even in the Chen Family.

Unfortunately, Xia Wanwan wasn’t a cultivator, just an ordinary person without any self-defense capabilities. Thus, he couldn’t involve his mother in his affairs.

Without the light screen, he wouldn’t have even had the capacity to resist, let alone achieve his current cultivation success.

"What’s your plan next?"

Xiao Lan raised her head slightly, after a long silence, and shook her head: "I may not be able to leave the Demon Court anymore."

Although the Fengyue Demon Emperor didn’t care much for her and mostly let her fend for herself, within the Demon Court, she could acquire more Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, with a certain level of safety assured.

"Chen Yi, thanks to you killing the Emperor Tiger, my mother won’t force me for some time, so I plan to fully focus on improving my cultivation in the coming days."

Xiao Lan paused, glanced at Chen Yi, and managed a smile, continuing, "You should work hard too, perhaps I can also represent the Demon Court in that gamble."

Chen Yi glanced at her and said blandly, "Then pray you don’t meet me in that gamble."

Xiao Lan’s smile froze, she glared at him with feigned irritation: "You... do you really not understand romance?"

Chen Yi remained silent.

The gamble between the Demon Court and the Human Race held significant consequences. Even though he didn’t know the details now, he could imagine it involved great interests, possibly linked to secret realms like the Ancient Daoist heritage. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Moreover, among the Human Clan’s Genius participating in that gamble might be his friends; thus, he couldn’t afford to hold back against Xiao Lan, even though they shared "Xunwang Heaven."

"Alright, I was just joking." Xiao Lan wasn’t particularly interested in participating in the gamble; she just thought that if she had the opportunity, she might be able to go to Taizhou Mountain to escape the Demon Court and the Fengyue Demon Emperor.

"Anyway, thank you for telling me all of this, those few Blood Cores can count as payment for this information."

Payment?

Chen Yi wanted to say he hadn’t even thought of asking for repayment, but seeing the Half-demon Princess’ distress, he refrained from stating it plainly.

"So, see you next time then."

Originally, he planned to stir up some chaos in the Demon Imperial Palace while rescuing Xiao Lan in the Demon Court, but that plan now seemed postponed.

Without Xiao Lan’s assistance, directly infiltrating the Demon Imperial Palace would almost certainly alert the Fengyue Demon Emperor.
