After rebirth, he became the favorite of the Moon Goddess.

“Sister, the only way now is to close your consciousness. This way, you won’t be controlled by your inner demons!” Zi Cang Ye Yan narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"No, I don't want my consciousness to be blocked, otherwise I will forget you!!" Mu Qingcheng shook her head desperately to refuse.

She doesn't want to become a person without spiritual consciousness!

I don’t want to forget the man I love the most!!

“Eldest sister!!!” Zi Cang Yeyan shouted loudly, “If you don’t do this, you will be devoured by your inner demon and completely become a person who loses his mind. Look at yourself, what did you do when you were controlled by your inner demon?!”

"I..." After hearing what Zi Cang Ye Yan said, Mu Qingcheng fell silent. After a moment, she looked up at him and said word by word: "If that's the case, you might as well just kill me!"

"I promised your majesty that I would not kill you!" Purple Nightmare frowned, "Don't force me!!"

"Haha..." Mu Qingcheng laughed miserably, "If you don't kill me, aren't you afraid that I will kill everyone here?"

“Mu Qingcheng!!” Zi Cang Yeyan interrupted her directly. He raised his hand and pointed at the dead and injured people around him, and said angrily: “Look carefully, these people are soldiers, guards, maids, and even your family members of the Shadow Demon Palace. Do you have the heart to kill them all?!”

"Hmph, so what?" Mu Qingcheng sneered, and a vague light flashed in his eyes again.

The next second, she used a voice that hardly belonged to her and uttered a few words coldly: "Everyone here should die!!"

Seeing that Mu Qingcheng’s consciousness was once again devoured by the inner demon, Zi Cang Yeyan took a deep breath and raised his hand to knock her unconscious.

Seeing that she had lost consciousness, Zi Cang Ye Yan untied his robe, put it on her, and then carried her back to the ground from mid-air.

At this moment, Mu Qingyu, with a pale face, returned to the Shadow Demon Palace with the help of several demon generals. Seeing Mu Qingcheng in the arms of Zi Cang Yeyan, he ignored his own injuries and hurried forward to ask: "Yan'er, how is Qingcheng?"

Zi Cang Yeyan shook his head slightly. "I tried my best, but I still couldn't awaken her consciousness. Her inner demon is too powerful. It has reached the point where it can completely control her consciousness..."

“How could this happen… How could this happen…” Mu Qingyu frowned, his eyes full of grief.

"I wanted to destroy her consciousness directly, but she refused." Zi Cang Ye Yan sighed helplessly.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyu was silent for a long while before he slowly said, "Yan'er, I heard that the Sansheng Spring water in the Sansheng River can purify the soul. I want to send Qingcheng there. Maybe one day, her consciousness can be revived."

"Three Lives River?" Upon hearing these words, Zi Cang Ye Yan was slightly stunned.

"The Sansheng Spring appears once every nine thousand years, and every drop of it has the effect of cleansing the soul. I want to save Qingcheng. Regardless of whether this method works or not, I want to try it..." Mu Qingyu clenched his fists lightly and said in a deep voice.

"But..." After hearing this, Zi Cang Ye Yan was hesitant to speak.

Although Sansheng River is far away from the demon world, Mu Qingcheng's cultivation is not low. Once she loses control, the surroundings will be turned upside down.

"Yan'er, I know what you're worried about. I will leave a magic circle around the Sansheng River. In this way, Qingcheng can't escape as she pleases." Mu Qingyu looked at Zi Cang Yeyan and said seriously.

Zi Cang Ye Yan thought for a long time before nodding, "Since it is your majesty's decision, I will obey it. However, you are still seriously injured, so leave this matter to me."

"No need, I'll do it myself." Mu Qingyu waved his hand gently, "Yan'er, my heart meridian has been severely damaged, I'm afraid I won't live long. From today on, I will officially hand over the Demon Realm to you. Your cultivation level is higher than mine, so I'm relieved that you will succeed the position of Demon Emperor."

"Your Majesty..." Zi Cang Ye Yan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Although he was only Mu Qingyu's adopted son, and although he knew clearly why Mu Qingyu appointed him as the Crown Prince of the Demon Realm, when he saw the other party's extremely weak appearance, Zi Cang Yeyan still felt a hint of sadness and sorrow in his heart.

"Yan'er, in all this time, I've never heard you call me father emperor?" Mu Qingyu suddenly changed the subject.

"I..." At that moment, Zi Cang Ye Yan only felt that his throat seemed to choke. He bit his lip but did not make a sound.

Seeing that he was hesitant and unwilling to say it, Mu Qingyu did not force him, "Forget it, if you don't want to, forget it. Yan'er, I don't have much time. Leave Qingcheng to me, and I will take her to the Sansheng River."

Zi Cang Yeyan gently pressed down Mu Qingyu's hand, then carried Mu Qingcheng on his back and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I will accompany you to send my elder sister off."

"Okay, okay." Mu Qingyu nodded, then looked at the Shadow Demon Palace behind him.

This might be the last time he looked here.

After pausing for a moment, Mu Qingyu moved and his figure disappeared from the spot.

Zi Cang Yeyan did not hesitate. Holding Mu Qingcheng in his arms, he followed Mu Qingyu's footsteps and flew towards the outside of the Shadow Demon Palace.

Soon, the Purple Nightmare arrived near the Sansheng River, which is the border between the heaven, the devil, the monster and the underworld.

From a distance, he saw three magnificent giant rivers flowing slowly from different directions. The three rivers were three different colors, namely scarlet red, blue-purple and silver-white. The surface of the river was unusually calm without any ripples.

The three rivers are surrounded by colorful red spider lilies. In the sea of ​​red spider lilies stands a stone tablet with the name of the river written on it: Sansheng River.

Although the three rivers have different colors, when they converge together, they magically present a dreamy light pink color.

"This is it, Yan'er, put Qingcheng down." Mu Qingyu pointed to the Sansheng River and said.

"Okay, good." Zi Cang Yeyan nodded, then carefully placed Mu Qingcheng in the sea of ​​flowers.

As soon as he stood up, Mu Qingyu raised his foot and walked to his side.

"Yan'er, please step aside first. While I still have some time, I have to quickly conjure up the magic circle around here." After saying that, he couldn't help but lowered his head and started coughing.

"Your Majesty...your injury..." Zi Cang Ye Yan looked at Mu Qingyu with concern, his eyes slightly red.

"I'm fine... cough... cough... cough... Mu Qingyu raised his hand, covered his chest and coughed again.

Seeing him in such pain, Zi Cang Ye Yan couldn't help but stepped forward to support him, "Your Majesty, let me do this."
