So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 322

Slap! His finger landed at the waist of his foster father. His foster father trembled and turned around with his face distorted in pain. He said angrily, “This lil’ shit, are you looking for a beating?”
Li Xianyu grinned. “Dad, your lumbar disc seems very prominent recently.”
His foster father slapped his head and said, “And even then you come and poke me there?”
After that, he slapped his head two more times.
His foster mother turned to look at the father and the son with a smile in her eyes. Her husband and son always did this. They got along in a different way than other families. One always spoke like some gangster from the hood, totally unbefitting of being a father. And if he was angry, he would slap his son’s head.
The other’s mouth was so stubborn and had no qualms with talking about all kinds of things in front of the father. In the beginning, when the old house was sold and the household made hundreds of thousands of net income, he even asked his foster father to take him to the brothel to celebrate.
If he was the son of any other dad, his grave would have already grown weed.
The two poured tea and returned to the living room. Li Xianyu followed his foster father with a relaxed face.
Just now, just before his finger touched his foster father, he withdrew the qi. He was able to retract and release his qi freely, which was not difficult for him. The foster father was unprepared for this and did not have even the slightest reaction. If he was really a hidden demon descendant, in a situation where he was caught off guard by a sudden fluctuation of qi around him, it would instinctively generate a stress response.
It was like being tapped suddenly from behind, one’s body would react subconsciously.
The atmosphere in the living room was as awkward as ever.
Ice Shards was sitting in the same posture as before with her legs crossed. She was not watching TV or playing with her phone. Occasionally she would gaze at her brother’s harem. Even Great-Grandma quietly frowned. This woman’s gaze was too uncomfortable.
Li Xianyu said in his heart, I knew it would be like this. With my sister’s character… She would probably say something like. “I’m sorry but actually everyone here is rubbish.”
He put the tea in front of Ice Shards. Ice Shards took a look at him and asked, “Is this the first time we’re meeting?”
“What?” said Li Xianyu blankly
Ice Shards said indifferently, “I only drink jasmine tea.”
“Sorry, I forgot.”
“It’s not too late to remember.”
“Okay, just give me a moment.” Li Xianyu ran back to the kitchen.
Seeing that, the ladies of the harem raised their eyebrows, Ice Shards looked at them from the corner of her eye, as though showing off her superiority.
Li Xianyu came out with jasmine tea. “I added a piece of sugar. You like it slightly sweet, right? I haven’t forgotten that.”
His foster father laughed and said, “They have had a good relationship since childhood.”
San Wu disagreed with the statement and seriously replied, “Actually he looks more like a slave.”
The atmosphere died again!
The foster father’s face twitched. What’s the matter with this girl? First, she made fun of my daughter’s name, then she is now poking fun of my son. It’s like she is not here to be a guest and wants to find fault with us. The foster father made complaints about her in his heart.
Ice Shards smiled.
Li Xianyu glared at San Wu. Saying it that way would make him feel awkward too.
There were many reasons for Li Xianyu’s tolerance for Ice Shard’s bad character. First, he had been used to it since he was a child.
Secondly, Ice shards had been proud and had high standards for people. She trained Li Xianyu into a minion, and that was more like recognition and acceptance. The number of men who would be willing to be trained into a “minion” by her could form a line to the moon and back, but she would not even take a second look at them.
Thirdly, his foster parents nurtured him up. This was a huge kindness he would pay off with filial piety and obedience.
That would still be the case even if Ice Shards were to cry, throw a tantrum, and say, “I don’t care! I don’t care! I want you to be my little minion!”
Li Xianyu would just smile and lie on the bed, waiting for Ice Shards. He was always ready to be her bed-warmer. Well, he could dream.
Li Xianyu sat down smiling. He opened a chat group with his harem group and commented: “I tested my dad, he should not be a demon descendant. Of course, that did not exclude the possibility that he was acting… But I think my foster parents would not harm me.”
He doubted his foster parents only because they might know about the secret of their father or the treasures of the Great Deities Palace but they kept it from him. That excluded the possibility that his parents would harm him.
The foster parents brought him up through thick and thin. If they really wanted to plot against him, there were too many opportunities. And in the first place, his father’s will could not be forged.
Hua Yang: “Are you sure?”
She was using Cui Hua’s mobile phone. Now Cui Hua was lying on her lap pretending to be a quiet and beautiful cat. Her identity was Hua Yang’s cat.
Do Yihan Love Yihan1: “Based on his physical abilities, he is definitely not a demon descendant, and he could not sense Qi. You should have a deep understanding of this. Ice… My sister didn’t have any reaction right?”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “Your nickname… If I didn’t know your sister’s name, I wouldn’t have thought of it.”
Do Yihan Love Yihan: “Just teasing her, she always bullied me.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “Really, treating you as a minion. Just looking at that I will get angry.”
Great-Grandma: “Yea.”
Hua Yang: “Yea.”
San Wu: “Yea.”
The Harem and Li Xianyu: “????”
San Wu: “If I don’t agree, it will appear that I’m not part of this group.”
People had been saying that about her forever. San Wu always seemed transparent. Li Xianyu and the harem often ignored her.
Great-Grandma: “But when you were in the kitchen testing your father, your sister had a strange move.”
Li Xianyu fiercely straightened his back, subconsciously looked at Ice Shards’ beautiful face and took a deep breath: “Talk about it.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “When you tested your father, the remote control in her hand fell off.”
Do Yihan Love Yihan: “Mother Hua Yang?”
Hua Yang: “There was no spiritual fluctuation, it might be just a coincidence [wry smile], but when we came in…”
She paused and didn’t go on.
But when they came in, Ice shards’ mood fluctuated violently. Everyone could feel the hostility.
Do Yihan Love Yihan: “My father and sister are ordinary people. There was no fluctuation of qi, and their physical abilities are normal. Just outside the door, I was looking at my father’s face. Mother Hua Yang, you should have noticed his mood fluctuation, right?”
Hua Yang: “When he first saw us, your father’s mental ability fluctuated violently. After opening the door for the second time, he recovered.”
Great-Grandma: “So, your father has a problem. It’s a pity that I really can’t remember him.”
Great-Grandma was very sorry about this. She was arrogant and would not remember ordinary people. Li Xianyu’s foster father was an ordinary person. According to her character, even if she had seen him, she might not have remembered.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady: “I think it’s because we are so beautiful that his mental energy fluctuated violently.”
Li Xianyu thought a little and covered his face silently: “I think Battle Lady is probably right.”
At this time, the foster mother came out with a plate of vegetables and said, “Dinner is ready.”
They kept their mobile phones and took their seats. Ice Shards put down the remote control and left the living room silently to enter the bathroom.
With a snap, the door locked, she washed her face, took out a few tissues to clean her face. In the mirror, her cool and gorgeous face was reflected.
One hundred seventy centimeters was undoubtedly tall among girls. Her face shape was not the typical model-like face, but anyone who looked at her face would feel that she was perfect. She had very exquisite facial features that people couldn’t pick out flaws.
With her plentiful bosom, thin waist, and beautiful face, her temperament was cold like frost, but actually not indifferent to things and exuded pride.
That was the biggest difference between Ice Shards and Sister Taisu in the eyes of the devilish younger brother.
She clenched her fist and burned the tissue paper in her palm.
“He grew suspicious. The minion had been really smart since young. Luckily I was prepared.”
“His power is rising rapidly as I had projected. Two years. We have at most two years left.”
“I can’t expose myself now. Whoever exposes themself first would die first. Tsk, these rats, they are so good at hiding.”
Turning on the tap, she washed the ashes off her hands and returned to the dining table. Ice Shards saw that at her usual spot there was a bowl of rice about 70% filled up. Hmph, Little Minion was the one who filled it for me. She instantly felt better.
Li Xianyu’s foster mother’s food was normal, like usual. She was not really talented in cooking. After decades of cooking, she had barely gotten any better. After getting used to eating the high-class delicacies of the Baoze cookhouse, the group struggled to eat the food.
While eating, the foster father tried to keep the conversation flowing, but the ladies his son brought back were all pretty weird. First, there was the girl who remained expressionless but made snide remarks whenever she opened her mouth. Then, there was the nun who was always showing a professional smile. Not to mention there was a girl who looked the youngest but had an oppressive aura filled with pride as strong as his daughter. The only one who was more normal was the long-legged beauty who would occasionally smile at him.
On his side, his daughter, who had a character few would like, was quietly eating. In fact, his wife was a really quiet person. Maybe it was this character that made him fall in love with her. Today, his son was also a little strange. He ate in silence and seemed to have something on his mind and let his father fight alone.
Fortunately, his foster father had been working in state-owned enterprises for many years. He could tell that these girls probably shared a close relationship with his son, so he told them about the embarrassing moments of his son.
When Li Xianyu was a child, he liked to play with fire. He would first light a fire, then squat, and watch it burn. He could get unlimited satisfaction from simply that. After his foster parents found out several times, they warned him severely. They thought he would stop there.
No one expected that one night, he sneaked into the bathroom, took out the white candle that he had spent his pocket money to buy, lit it, and felt unsatisfied. He lit the toothbrush and the tooth cup and was still unsatisfied. In the end, he even threw the dry towel into the fire.
The light of a candle was quickly turned into a bonfire. The smell of burned plastic permeated the bedroom, waking the foster parents. The couple thought the entire building was on fire. They were so scared that they put on their coats and rushed out. They went to the bathroom following the smell only to see their son squatting beside the campfire, holding his knees, and his face was full of satisfaction, just like the match loving little boy in the fairy tale. This ended with Li Xianyu being beaten up by his dad. The sound of a pig being murdered echoed in the neighborhood until dawn.
“So he had been so abnormal since he was a kid….” Thunderbolt Battle Lady glanced at Li Xianyu and murmured.
He really lived up to his title of the devilish successor, even before he got that title. Great-Grandma and Hua Yang couldn’t help but laugh. Cui Hua crawled to Li Xianyu’s feet, patted him with her fluffy paw to show her disdain.
Li’s family never had pets, and his mother didn’t like cats or dogs, so they didn’t know how to take care of pets. Xianyu’s foster mother found a plate, scooped some rice for Cui Hua, and poured some gravy over it as her meal.
Cui Hua was angry. She knocked over the plate with a slap and walked proudly to one side. At this time, she was crouching at Li Xianyu’s feet, sad over her lack of proper food.
She finally knew why Li Xianyu didn’t let her turn into her human shape. It was because the dining table was just full of people. Plus, she only ate fish and not rice. Forcing her to eat rice would just make her suffer. Li Xianyu knew that very well.
Hua Yang didn’t have to eat either, but she had to show up to test his foster father.
“My pair of son and daughter always worried me.” The foster father laughed. “His elder sister said at that time, ‘Good job! You should play with fire more.’ In any case, she had always been partial to him and never thinks he is wrong. ”
Li Xianyu’s chopsticks stopped. “I’ll go to the bathroom.”
He put down his chopsticks and left the living room. The toilet was at the end of the corridor, next to his sister’s room. Li Xianyu carefully opened his sister’s room and closed the door. He opened the wardrobe that once became his psychological shadow. Opening the drawer in the wardrobe, he saw the folded with underwear of different styles and colors.
Li Xianyu was deep in thought.
The Emperor of the Great Demons’ Alliance possessed the divine things that his father brought out of the Great Deities palace. If he was his father, such a thing would inevitably be given to those whom he could trust, not necessarily those who have the ability to protect it, but the most inconspicuous and easily ignored people.
He thought that this candidate was likely to be his foster father. One wouldn’t think that Li Wuxiang left the treasure to his son because it will harm both his son and his sworn brother by leaving the treasure to a baby.
In those days, if he was handed over to be adopted by Buddha Head, it would arouse suspicion too.
With this association, Li Xianyu immediately felt that the Emperor of the Great Demons Alliance was a bit like Ice Shards. Although he couldn’t see her face and figure clearly, her eyes seemed to have lost their original color due to the glowing red pupils. Plus, there were too many cold and tall women in the blood community.
However, as a qualified minion who has lived with you for over 20 years, did you think I couldn’t smell out your scent? This kind of conjecture is based on intuition and can’t be fully trusted until further evidence is found. So this time, we will not only test foster father but also Ice Shards.
The point was, why did the Emperor give him a piece of the meat? There was no reason to give him such a good thing. It couldn’t be just an accident.
If the Emperor was Ice Shards, everything would be reasonable. As the number one minion under his elder sister Her Majesty, he had the right to the Queen’s welfare.
Mother Hua Yang didn’t detect the mental fluctuation of Ice Shards. It’s also possible that her mental strength is stronger than that of Mother Hua Yang, and she covered it up perfectly. And I believe the Emperor would have that ability, Li Xianyu thought.
When her father died, she was just a toddler. If the Emperor was really her, their foster father would not escape from his suspicion. In the event that his foster father was not a demon descendant but Ice Shards was one, she might be awakened by using the meat of evolution.
But now the problem was that both the elder sister and the foster father were ordinary people. There was no fluctuation of qi no matter how he tested them. Of course, there were special means to hide them. In fact, there were some differences between the Emperor’s temperament and that of his elder sister. Ice Shards was not as domineering as she was.
Finally, there was another doubt. If the Emperor was Ice Shards, why did she not tell him straight up? As long as she told him her identity, he could mediate from within, and let the Great Demons Alliance and Baoze reduce their hostilities.
If we really ended up fighting, as siblings for over 20 years, did she think that I would not help her?
“Whether you are the Emperor or not will be known immediately.” Li Xianyu picked up a panty and put it on his nose to smell it.
There was no peculiar smell, no smell of soap, but a light taste of the closet… Well, this panty had been left here by Ice Shards for a long time and thus has no scent.
“I have to find the one she just wore recently.” Li Xianyu changed to another underwear and finally smelled the unique smell of her sister.
It’s still the same formula, such a familiar taste.
At this time, his ears moved, and he heard the light footsteps in the corridor.
Eh… Footsteps. Someone is coming.
I should put the panties back in place and hide immediately.
Just a few seconds, just a few seconds.
Come on, stop it. I don’t want to be locked in the closet anymore. My reputation would be ruined.
Let’s smell for a moment more, just a moment.
I can’t. I have to restrain myself.
Ah… How fragrant.
Crack. The door handle turned. It was too late. The door was already opened.
TL Note: Original: 干一行爱一行. 一行 (Yi (4) Hang (2)) sounds a bit like 怡涵(Yi (4) Han (3) (his sister’s name)). 一行 means “A Profession”, so the saying originally meant to love whatever job/profession you do.
