Chapter 1573: Will He Get His Butt Spanked When Mom and Dad Come Home?

By the Netherworld River, what was once a towering Merit Stele, now only remains as broken stone roots and scattered rocks.

Two elders kneel nearby, constantly bowing their heads, “It’s over, it’s over, it’s finished!”

“The Merit Stele recorded the achievements of all previous Demon Lords since the appearance of the Demon World, and now they’re all gone!”

Feng Linxing steps on the Prison Beast he had knocked out, his four-year-old face tense.

He asks, “Previous Demon Lords? Didn’t you say that my father was the first Demon Lord? Whose achievements were recorded on that Merit Stele?”

The two elders turn back trembling, “It’s precisely because only Lord Demon’s records were there that we feel something terrible has happened…”

Feng Linxing furrows his brow.

Of all people to provoke, it had to be his father!

He’s still young, can’t possibly take on his father!

The little one bows his head, narrow phoenix eyes squinting, blaming the dizzy Prison Beast.

“I told you all to slow down, but you went flying and breathing fire everywhere. Look what happened now, you’ve destroyed my father’s Merit Stele!”

When dad and mom return, will he get a spanking?

Feng Linxing doesn’t seem particularly afraid.

He crosses his arms, huffs, “Though the stele recorded my father’s glorious feats, most were related to attacking the Heavenly Court, which is my mother’s maiden home. How could it be called a Merit Stele? It’s a handle my grandmother could use to reprimand my dad.”

“Crashing it down might be good, he probably won’t blame me, right?” Saying this, Feng Linxing is also a bit unsure.

At this moment, the two elders change their expressions, looking at the distant sky, “Lord Demon and Her Majesty the Demon Queen are back!”

Feng Linxing instantly drops to his knees with a thud.

The overbearing, fearless expression from before has vanished.

Replaced by a look of regret and cautiousness for a wrongdoing.

Two elders: …

They’re already used to the Little Demon Prince pretending to be a good baby in front of his parents.

“Xingxing!” Bai Zhi’er lands, rushing forward to check if Feng Linxing is hurt.

The stele was so large when it fell, she was really worried the little one might not have avoided being buried underneath.

“Mother~” Feng Linxing turns, burying himself in Bai Zhi’er’s embrace, his voice steady, yet his tone somewhat desolate, “Sorry, I made trouble.”

The two elders rush to Feng Fuce’s side to salute.

“Lord Demon, this…”

They barely start speaking before Feng Fuce raises his hand to stop them, “I already know. There’s no need to say more. You may withdraw for now.”

“Yes.” The elders bow and depart.

Feng Linxing leans against his mother’s chest, ears perked listening to Feng Fuce’s instructions, and suddenly looks up curiously.

Why is his father so calm and composed?

Just as he looks up, he meets Feng Fuce’s gaze.

In the instant their eyes meet.

Feng Linxing quickly lowers his head.

His father’s gaze is too profound; staring too much would reveal flaws, it’s better to avoid it!

“Mother, I know I was wrong.” Feng Linxing focuses on appeasing Bai Zhi’er.

He’s always known his mother is the soft-hearted one.

Bai Zhi’er smiles helplessly, stroking his hair, “You little rascal, so mischievous, but your dad has already said he doesn’t blame you.”

“Really?” Feng Linxing lifts his head.

Bai Zhi’er smiles, “Of course.”

Feng Fuce walks over, speaking calmly, “Though I don’t blame you, there are still lessons to be taught. Making mistakes at home is better than causing errors outside in the future.”

With that, he looks at Bai Zhi’er, “Madam, please go prepare. I will have a private talk with him.”
