Chapter 493: Grandfather Takes Him Home

Being suddenly seized without any warning and having no ability to resist would cause anyone to panic.

Xiao Shou was no exception.

However, he only panicked during the moment when the space was sealed.

When that furry black tail emerged through the realm membrane, he immediately stopped worrying.

Instead, he became extremely happy and willingly allowed the black tail to carry him away without offering the slightest resistance.

After the black tail brought him into a pitch-black place without gravity or spiritual energy, where only a strange energy existed, Xiao Shou immediately called out happily, "Grandfather~~~!"

His tone was several times sweeter than when he had called out to his grandfather in the past.

"Hmph!"

The furry black tail instantly withdrew into the darkness.

After a strange sound that seemed like rubbing and twisting rang out, a figure silently approached Xiao Shou.

Without Xiao Shou noticing at all, the figure spoke beside him. "Ah Shou, no matter how sweetly you call me, it won’t work. This time, I am definitely taking you back to the Spirit Fox Realm. I absolutely won’t allow you to keep playing down there."

"Ah~ Eh! Grandfather, you weren’t rescuing me back to the Heaven Origin Realm? In that case, forget it. Please put me back. I’ll find a way back to the Heaven Origin Realm myself."

Anyway, the Demon Abyss Realm had now been transformed into the Star Demon Realm under his influence. All the Demon Abyss demonic aura had become Little Black’s food, the Demon Abyss Clan had been reduced to scattered remnants fleeing in all directions, and he also had the incredibly powerful Star Demon Mother Tree as an ally. Finding a way back from the Star Demon Realm should not be too difficult.

Xiao Shou pondered this silently.

Even in the void, someone as powerful as Tushan Qing could not see anything. However, he did not need to look. Just by hearing the energetic voice beside his ear, he knew that his precious grandson had not been frightened at all.

This left Tushan Qing extremely puzzled.

Even if his precious grandson had still been hiding some trump card and had managed to escape from the Demon Abyss Clan, after spending ten days in the Demon Abyss Realm, he should at least have been somewhat miserable. That would have been normal.

Yet judging from his precious grandson’s tone, he not only did not sound the slightest bit miserable, but even seemed confident that he could find a way back to the Heaven Origin Realm after returning.

Thinking this, a sly look flashed through Tushan Qing’s eyes. However, his tone sounded almost mocking as he said, "Go back? So you can become a prisoner of those demonic brats again? Look at you..."

"No! Grandfather, you misunderstood. The people beside me just now weren’t members of the Demon Abyss Clan. They were my friends, the Star Demon race. They are completely different from the Demon Abyss Clan."

Thinking that Tushan Qing was referring to the possibility of him being imprisoned by the Star Demon race, Xiao Shou became anxious. He felt that he could not let this eccentric grandfather misunderstand the Star Demon Mother Tree and the others.

Yet he could not reveal that he had created them either, so he simply claimed that they were his friends.

"Star Demon race?"

The Star Demon race had fought the Demon Abyss Clan countless times on the battlefield outside the realms, but Tushan Qing had never heard of such a race existing in the Demon Abyss Realm.

"I don’t care whether they are the Demon Abyss Clan or the Star Demon race. I only know that if I continue letting you do whatever you want without caring about you, sooner or later I will have to collect your body."

"This time, I was careless. It won’t happen again."

Hearing this, Xiao Shou felt somewhat guilty. Thinking about the bold words he had spoken when he had asked Tushan Qing not to take him away, only to inexplicably be sucked into the Demon Abyss Realm afterward and nearly lose his life, he could no longer speak so confidently.

He could only lower his voice and imitate the coquettish manner of the daughter whom Tushan Qing had loved most in the original story.

"Really! You have to believe me, Granfather~!"

"Speak properly. That strange tone of yours is giving me goosebumps."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Shou’s words made Tushan Qing bristle. For the first time, he actually shouted at Xiao Shou.

What a hypocrite. He was obviously a huge pervert himself. Didn’t he like hearing his descendants speak in such sweet, coquettish voices in the original story? Why was it suddenly improper when he spoke like that?

Xiao Shou complained inwardly, but shamelessly continued acting coquettish. "Grandfather... You’re the best... Please take me back to the Heaven Origin Realm! Please!"

Xiao Shou was not particularly panicked despite being surrounded by complete darkness.

The worldview described in the novel Longevity Love had explained that all small worlds, Spirit Realms, and Immortal Realms existed within the void. The void was filled with strange energies that were difficult for cultivators to absorb and refine and were also filled with violent and destructive power.

Perhaps it was because of this energy, or perhaps it was simply a natural phenomenon.

In any case, although the entire void contained countless small worlds, three thousand Spirit Realms, and Immortal Realms, the void surrounding the countless small worlds contained absolutely nothing except eternal darkness.

Unless one was a powerful cultivator of the Spirit Realm or an immortal from the Immortal Realm, an ordinary cultivator could not find an accurate path through this endless darkness.

Moreover, there were also dangerous Dark Void Beasts lurking within this dark void. They specialized in devouring all foreign objects in the void and acted as cleaners of the void.

These were all things that Xiao Shou currently had no ability to deal with or resist. 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

Therefore, he could only choose between two options: ask Tushan Qing to send him to the Heaven Origin Realm or return to the Star Demon Realm.
