In the past sixteen years, the time returned to its calmness, flowing gently forward along with the stream in the valley, not knowing where it comes or where it goes.

Meng Yu changed his appearance day by day.

I often ask Cang Li, before, they all claimed that the demon had no mother, but how could I give birth to a monster? So I realized that this demon was not that monster. Because the demon world had escaped thousands of years ago, the demons mentioned later were all monsters who practiced into monsters in other spaces. The real monsters with pure bloodline like Nuwa and A Nian grandmother are races with power comparable to gods and demons, and they also have the ability to reproduce. Then I had more doubts. For example, if the demons in the depressed forest really returned to the demon world, would they be accepted by the real demon race? Or, if the demon world reappeared, what kind of turmoil would it bring to the six realms?

Although Meng Yu is a demon, his character is more like his father. He doesn't say much, but he is very deep. At a young age, he always gives people a very down-to-earth feeling.

Cang Li treats him very well, so good that even I sometimes have the illusion that they are real fathers and sons. Meng Yu does call him fathers, although Cang Li once told him personally that his biological father was a mortal.

There is only one thing that Cang Li did not allow Meng Yu to leave Yifeng Valley easily. Therefore, in the past sixteen years, Meng Yu only went out of the valley three times, and each time he was escorted by Cang Li throughout the journey. I didn't understand why he was so cautious, but I was not at ease in my heart. I was afraid that Meng Yu would encounter any danger outside, so I did not interfere with it. However, Cang Li was indeed very attentive in other matters, and followed the agreement with me, and never interfered with or restricted Meng Yu too much.

In addition to Cang Li and I, the only one who grew up with Meng Yu over the years was the fish demon Shui Lin. When Cang Li taught Meng Yu, he also let Shui Lin go together. Therefore, even if he was a monster who was cultivated in the acquired world, Shui Lin's spiritual power was not weak.

But these days, Cang Li began to gradually become alert. Of course, I have also thought a lot more. If it were mortals, Meng Yu would be about to become an adult.

In the afternoon of that day, Cang Li suddenly pushed the door open without knocking on the door, frowned, changing his calmness in the past.

"Yu'er has been here to you?"

I sat up from the couch and said blankly: "No."

"Where is Shui Lin? Have you seen her?"

“No, either.”

"I have searched all over the valley, but I have no trace of them."

Then I seemed to realize the seriousness of the situation.

"Have you found the cave in the hills to the west?"

"Not here."

“Where is the cave on the south side?”

“Neither here.”

The more I asked, the more I became, the more I was getting more and more panicked. As I asked, I walked out of the bamboo house with Cangli.

He went east and I went west, searched again, and returned to the origin, all of whom were full of sadness.

"When did this child leave the valley? He didn't even sound."

"We have half a month left, we will bring him back quickly."

Half a month left, Meng Yu's sixteenth birthday. It turns out that the adult time of the demon clan is indeed the same as that of the mortals.

"Where will he go?"

I tried hard to recall and guess, but I didn't capture any useful clues from my memory.

Cang Li thought for a while, as if he was talking to himself: "A few days ago, he seemed to ask me about his biological father..."

I frowned and my thoughts were immediately distracted.

"He went to Suining." Cang Li said affirmatively.

Although Cangli is a god clan, he has also practiced space art in the Demon Realm, so within a moment, we are already in Suining Town.

Things change, people are still bustling streets and familiar houses. People seem to have forgotten the terrible incident many years ago. Many young faces are filled with joy and vitality, but they don’t know what happened to those old people.

Cang Li also turned into a mortal figure at this time, wearing a ginger robe, walking with me on the bluestone road in Suining, in that familiar direction.

Even though there are many new houses around, the main road has not changed much. Bypassing the intersection in front, you can see the pond with willow trees hanging down.

Just like the layout of the past, the courtyard wall was much old, and the sign engraved with "Mengjun Villa" was replaced with "Bo Mansion". The servants who cleaned the door were gone, and the door was quietly closed. I suddenly stopped, hesitating and scared.

"What?" Cang Li asked softly.

"nothing."

I took a deep breath and continued to walk forward.

Raise your hand and knock on the door. Everything seems natural, but my heart is already in great turmoil.

In fact, we also came to investigate the night before, but we did not find any trace of that person, nor did we find Meng Yu or Shui Lin.

Meng Yu learned some space skills with Cang Li, and it would not take long to go from Yifeng Valley to this place.

But I still don’t understand how Cangli knew that the person was in Suining. Is it also my whisper at night? But in the past ten years, we have been living in separate houses.

At this time, we couldn't even take into account the reasons. We just wanted to find Meng Yu as soon as possible.

Soon, the door of Bo Mansion opened, and a servant popped out from it. He seemed to be only in his teenage years, but he was about the same age as Meng Yu.

"Who are you looking for?"

"May I ask... Is Bo Yi here?"

"You want to find my master? He doesn't see strangers, please leave quickly."

After saying that, the servant wanted to close the door.

"I'm going to pass on a message, we are not strangers, but old friends."

"Let's go, my master is not here at this time." The servant urged impatiently.

The moment when the mansion was about to be closed, a gentle voice came from the crack of the door.

"elder sister?"

The servant looked back and stopped closing the door, then glanced at us, and opened the door again.

Only then did I see the people in the yard clearly, with a simple bun on my head, long hair at my waist, wearing an apricot gauze skirt, and stopping to look at me from afar.

"Are you sister?"

She hesitated for a moment and walked towards us, with a hint of joy and a lot of doubt in her eyes.

"Ying'er?" I hesitated and called out this name.

She suddenly laughed and nodded vigorously.

"Sister still remembers me? Over the years, my sister hasn't changed at all!"

Her uncontrollable excitement was soon interrupted by the person behind her.

"She will not change naturally because she is not a human at all."

I walked around Ying'er and saw a man with a few strands of white hair on his temples. Although this was the case, he was still tall and had a bit of heroic spirit between his eyebrows and eyes. However, compared to the past, he was much older.

"Brother Boyi."

I moved aside two steps and shouted calmly.

Bo Yi snorted, without any response, and turned around and walked into the yard.

"Come in."

The servant was just not convinced that he threw down this sentence.

The servant retreated aside, and Ying'er led us into the mansion.

Everything in the mansion seemed to have been completely rebuilt, and even the layout changed a lot. Many of the gardens and courtyards before were abandoned, surrounded by newly built courtyard walls, and the courtyard gate was locked. As a result, the space in the mansion became much crowded. We followed Ying'er all the way to the small courtyard in the southeast. However, the buildings in this courtyard were the same as before. On the other side of the courtyard was the inner courtyard where You Ruojun once lived. This courtyard was originally lived by that person.

Ying'er took us in, and went into the main house of the other courtyard with Boyi.

"Sister, let's take a seat first. I'll ask someone to pour you tea." Ying'er asked us to sit in the guest seat. Seeing Bo Yi's expression, she carefully retreated.

"What are you doing?"

Bo Yi sat down and looked at us with a very serious expression, but he deliberately turned his eyes elsewhere. Finally, he looked at Cang Li, who had transformed into a mortal, and snorted fiercely.

"Brother Boyi."

"Slow down!" He interrupted me and said sternly, "I can't afford to call you. I am a mortal, and my life span is only tens of years. I can't afford to take on a monster called me 'big brother'."

Cang Li frowned from the side, and I shook my head at him.

"Do you know where Yun Zhong is?"

Hearing the name, he turned his head suddenly, and his eyes became even more angry.

"He? I don't know."

"Didn't he come back?" I remembered the scene when I saw him last time on the Quexian Waterfall many years ago.

"Here I'm back. I'm leaving again."

"Where has he been?" I became a little anxious.

"How do I know? Shouldn't you know better than me?"

He slapped the coffee table beside him and seemed to be very angry.

"I thought... he would come back and Miss You Ruojun..."

"Shut up! Don't mention her name!" Bo Yi suddenly rose and glared at us.

Cang Li slowly stood up, and I immediately felt a little more murderous aura beside me.

I quickly stood up, walked to Cangli, and grabbed his sleeve.

"Hmph!" Bo Yi sneered again, as if he was contempt for us.
