That's right!
It was Mo Shangxie!
The little girl with twin tails who had been captured was none other than the future Sealing Demon Immortal, the rebellious disciple who inherited the Demon Ancestor's demonic origin—Mo Shangxie.
"Let me go! My father will beat you to death!"
Mo Shangxie started struggling, and inadvertently her small hand slapped a Quasi-Emperor right across the face. With a boom, his face was literally twisted to the side...
"Hiss—" The Quasi-Emperor winced in pain. That slap felt like he had been hit by an imperial artifact.
"Uh... sweet child, we uncles mean no harm."
There was nothing they could do. They couldn't bring themselves to scold or hit this little girl. Who knew if she might rise to greatness in the future? This mission had been passed down from the higher-ups, higher-ups, higher-ups, and even higher-ups of the higher-ups. Even if her ultimate fate was to be refined into a demon pill... they still had to ensure she entered the furnace in a normal state.
"Screw you! I want my dad... I want my imperial father!"
In just a short while, Mo Shangxie's voice had gone hoarse from crying.
"Sweet girl, take a look at these sacks. What color do you like? Uncle will stuff you inside!" One eccentric Quasi-Emperor even pulled out a dozen sacks in different colors.
Mo Shangxie: "..."
In the end, little Mo Shangxie was stuffed into a pink sack and taken away from the Moluo Empire.
......
On the other side, Jiang Che was still on his honeymoon with Yao Yue.
He had to admit, Yao Yue truly lived up to being of the demon race. Even though Jiang Che had seen countless beauties, no one was more adventurous than her when it came to playing games.
"Demon Ancestor... do you prefer petite and cute girls?"
Suddenly, Yao Yue spoke timidly, her voice even quivering a bit.
"What? Who said that? Who's slandering me? No, I'm not... I'm not a lolicon!"
Jiang Che's guilt made him deny it on the spot!
Yao Yue fell silent. Though she didn't understand the word "lolicon," the term "loli" sounded like it described those small, soft, cute, and well-behaved little girls.
"It was Destroying Demon Emperor, they've been searching for you recently..." As she spoke, her voice trailed off.
"Destroying Demon Emperor? Searching for me for what?" Jiang Che was puzzled. Although he held the title of Demon Ancestor, he never did anything serious, so naturally he didn't know what those Demon Emperors were up to.
"To... find you a child bride."
Jiang Che: "..."
What the hell?
Jiang Che's eyes went wide instantly. Oh no!
He suddenly understood where his two disciples had come from!
He'd only glanced once at a photo of himself and his wives when he was bored. It seemed that Swallowing Heavens Demon Emperor had seen it too, but Jiang Che hadn't thought much of it...
And yet this mess had come out of it???
"Demon Ancestor! Your concubine's figure is a bit tall... if you find it repulsive... I can make myself smaller."
Yao Yue's voice carried a tone of humility. She had no self-respect in front of Jiang Che. It was no wonder she had once thrown herself at his feet and kissed them without a second thought.
This Demon Empress had instantly developed a pleaser personality after meeting Jiang Che. In fact, everyone has such a personality—you just haven't found the person you want to please yet.
"You don't have to shrink. You're perfect just the way you are!" Jiang Che patted Yao Yue's head. After all, while lolis are nice, one shouldn't overindulge. Switching things up from time to time was also a great option.
"So... Demon Ancestor, are you really going to take that child bride?"
Jiang Che waved his hand. If he guessed correctly, those goofy Demon Emperors would end up bringing Mo Shangxie or Ji Qingyi right to his doorstep.
Just then, a voice entered his divine consciousness.
"Demon Ancestor, your subordinate has prepared a surprise for you. Would you like to come and take a look?"
It was the voice of Destroying Demon Emperor.
The old man sounded quite pleased with himself.
Jiang Che felt a headache coming on. Damn it, this old pervert... did he really think he was some kind of beast?
But he decided to go check it out anyway. After all, his future disciple was likely among those girls. The timeline was once again converging.
"Husband..." Yao Yue bit her lip lightly.
"I'll be back soon."
......
"Hehe, Demon Ancestor, your humble servant has prepared... prepared... many little maid-servants. Would you like to see any of them?"
Destroying Demon Emperor forced a smile onto his face, but it looked utterly sleazy.
At the same time, he led Jiang Che into a great hall where there were exactly one hundred little girls of various appearances and cute looks.
But none of them were old—the eldest was no more than ten, and some were even crying loudly.
"Get the hell out! NOW!"
Jiang Che pointed angrily. This damned Destroying Demon Emperor was truly an idiot. Sure, Jiang Che might be a bit of a scoundrel, but he had still been educated with moral values as a good youth.
Still, Jiang Che swept his eyes over the girls and eventually locked onto a little girl with curly twin tails. She wasn't crying or making a fuss. Amidst the crowd, she stared directly at him, as if she already knew he was the mastermind. Her angry eyes were blazing with the desire to kill him.
Jiang Che chuckled. Just as he thought!
So this was fate. They had directly kidnapped Mo Shangxie, the Demon Ancestor's first disciple. But right now, she was still a child.
When Mo Shangxie noticed Jiang Che looking at her, she bared her teeth at him in plain sight.
"Heh—" Jiang Che shook his head.
He pointed directly at little Mo Shangxie. "Except for her, kill all the other children!"
As soon as he said that, all the little girls were terrified into loud wails, filling the hall with sobbing like a chorus of frogs.
[Ding! Host has tricked the Southern Sun Princess... Earned 1 point.]
[Ding...]
Obviously, Jiang Che wasn't actually going to kill all these ordinary people. It was just to scare Mo Shangxie. He had already sent a telepathic message to all other demon clan members, ordering them to safely return the little girls.
He wasn't some kind of demon, after all.
...
Soon, only Mo Shangxie remained out of the hundred girls. Little Mo Shangxie was frozen in fear, unable to move or even cry.
Everyone else around her had been executed by this ultra-powerful demon king. Was she next?
Jiang Che strolled casually up to Mo Shangxie. The current Mo Shangxie was far from the unrivaled elegance of the future Sealing Demon Immortal. She was just a little girl about to pee her pants from terror.
"What's your name?"
Jiang Che looked down at her. Since he was the master, who said he couldn't scare his little disciple a bit?
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System."

uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them.
