Chapter 885 - l Am Tian Chenyu!

"How long do we have to continue this lifestyle? It's been twenty years since that incident, and I have barely seen my son since then. Although I am happy that he's no longer in a coma, this isn't that much different. I can even count the amount of times we've talked to each other during the past 20 years…" Tian Chenyu's mother sighed out loud, complaining to her husband, Tian Aowei.

"It can take years if not decades for a broken heart to heal. We must be patient," he said.

"What if he never recovers? We're not cultivators. We don't have hundreds of years to spend with each other."

"Then what do you suggest? We cannot force his heart to heal. Or what, do you want another son? Although you're past that age, it's not impossible."

"What? No! I don't want another son! How can you even suggest that? If you're suggesting that we replace Chenyu with another son, how is that any different than abandoning Chenyu?!"

"Calm down, I was just being sarcastic. But there is truly nothing we can do now but be patient."

"It might seem like he's not recovering, but that is not true. Things are much better now than 20 years ago. Nowadays, he leaves his room once a week, but back then, it would be a miracle to see him outside his room even once a month."

"At this rate, I will be an old lady before we can become a real family again."

"Better late than never, right?"

"I guess so…"

"By the way, it's almost that time of the year again. Do you think he'll visit their graves this year?" Tian Aowei suddenly asked.

"Unlikely." She sighed.

"Do you think he'll ever fall in love again? That's another problem we must worry about— our grandchildren…"

"Who knows…" Tian Aowei shook his head.

"Anyways, it's getting late. Goodnight, dear."ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoᴠelFɪre.net

"Goodnight."

A week later, right as the Tian Family prepared to visit the Ai Family's gravesites, they received dreadful news that changed their plans.

"What? Demons have entered the city? When did this happen? How many?" Tian Aowei asked the servant who told him the news.

"A-About an hour ago! And there are three demons! They are rampaging the city even as we speak!"

"Shit! Why did they have to show up today on all days?!" Tian Aowei cursed out loud.

And he continued, "Let everyone in the household know about the situation! We will hide underground for the next three days!"

"Yes!"

While the servants in the household began scrambling towards the underground area beneath the Tian Family's household that was created to hide from demons, Tian Aowei and his wife went to warn Tian Chenyu of the situation.

"Chenyu! Hurry up and open the door! Demons have invaded our city, and there are three of them! We must hurry and hide underground until they leave!" His mother banged on his door that was locked shut.

However, there was no response from Tian Chenyu, almost as though he wasn't inside his room.

"Chenyu! Are you asleep?! Wake up!" His mother continued banging on his door.

"Where's Chenyu?!" Tian Aowei showed up shortly after and asked her.

"I don't know! He should be in his room, but he's not responding! What if something had happened to him?!"

"Shit! We don't have much time left! Move! I am going to break down his door!" Tian Aowei said as he approached Tian Chenyu's room.

However, right as he stood in front of the door, the ground suddenly shook, and a loud noise resounded behind them simultaneously.

Tian Aowei and his wife slowly turned around to see a tall shadow standing in a cloud of dust about 20 meters from them.

Once the dust cloud disappeared, the figure within became visible.

'A-A demon?! We're dead!' Tian Aowei cried inwardly as his body trembled in fear from the demon's aura that radiated with killing intent.

"N-No… Not like this…"

His wife directly fell to her knees and began crying the moment she saw the demon.

Once the demon noticed their presence, it began walking towards their direction.

"Mortals, huh? I would've preferred cultivators, but I guess you'll do just fine as an appetizer before my main meal."

The demon licked its lips as it closed their distance within seconds.

Tian Aowei and his wife remained frozen as the demon stood right before them, as they were too terrified to even run away.

"I love you, darling…" Tian Aowei mumbled in a low voice as the demon opened its mouth.

However, just as the demon tried to take a bite of Tian Aowei's face, a cold voice resounded from the room behind them.

"The stench of a demon… How unpleasant."

The door behind Tian Aowei and his wife suddenly flew open, and Tian Chenyu appeared from the room with a sword in his grasp, stabbing the demon right in its mouth.

After sticking his sword in the demon's face, Tian Chenyu kicked the demon in its stomach, sending it flying.

"It's dangerous here. You two should leave." Tian Chenyu said to his parents without looking at them.

"C-Chenyu?!" They stared at him with shocked looks on their faces.

Tian Aowei quickly snapped out of his daze and picked up his wife before running away.

"W-Wait! We cannot leave him with the demon! He'll die!" His wife shouted.

However, Tian Aowei ignored his wife and continued to carry her away from the scene.

The moment Tian Chenyu's parents left, the demon got back to its feet and stared at Tian Chenyu while baring its sharp teeth at him.

"A mere mortal! How dare you!" The demon roared before running at him.

Seeing the demon running at him, Tian Chenyu's hands and legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

However, he quickly regained control over his body, swinging the sword in his grasp at the incoming demon.

Due to its arrogance, the demon didn't even bother to block Tian Chenyu's strike and allowed him to sever its arm.

"Useless! It's useless! Even if you cut me into a million pieces with that sword, I will fully recover within seconds like nothing ever happened!" The demon laughed madly as Tian Chenyu severed its other arm.

"Why don't we put that to the test?" Tian Chenyu said in a calm voice.

He then severed the demon's legs.

"I told you, it's useless!" The demon continued to laugh.

However, it stopped laughing a few moments later when its limbs still hadn't recovered.

'W-What's going on?! Why isn't my body recovering?!' The demon was puzzled, but it didn't panic— at least not yet.

It turned to look at its severed arms and legs, and to its absolute shock, its limbs had suddenly turned into stone!

"W-What is the meaning of this?! What did you do to me?!" The demon roared at Tian Chenyu, who was standing in front of it and looking down on it like it was trash.

"What did I do? Nothing much. I simply sealed your body, preventing it from regenerating… I think. This is actually my first time doing something like this, so I am really glad that it's working as I'd thought."

"Y-You sealed my body and my ability to regenerate? I-Impossible! There's no way humans could have such power! Who are you?!"

"I am the one who will be hunting down every single demon in this world until there are none of you left. I am the one who will put an end to this era of demons terrorizing humans. I'm your— demons' worst nightmare. I am Tian Chenyu!" Tian Chenyu said with a cold expression on his face.
