Who Stole My Eggs?

Xie Zuo was sleeping soundly when he suddenly let out a heart-piercing cry, which really startled Huo Yao.

Because Xie Zuo’s tribulation was approaching, Huo Yao’s heart was always tense, fearing that he would disappear with one wrong glance.

Huo Yao had never seen Xie Zuo like this since he was born. His screams were mixed with fear, pain, and despair. This child had always been fearless and strong. When did he become so helpless?

“Xie Zuo, Xie Zuo, wake up,” Huo Yao called softly, carefully stroking his chest to help him breathe. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here. Wake up.”

Xie Zuo struggled to open his eyes from the nightmare, and as soon as he saw Huo Yao, tears fell uncontrollably. “It’s gone, ah, ah, I pushed it away, my bud is gone!”

Huo Yao kissed him comfortingly. “That was a dream, wake up. That’s it.”

“It’s not a dream!” Xie Zuo pushed him away angrily. “Don’t bother me!”

Xie Zuo sat up cross-legged, closed his eyes, and checked his demon soul again.

Huo Yao didn’t dare to disturb him, so he connected his consciousness with the soul on Xie Zuo’s Demon Soul Tree to investigate his situation.

At this moment, he really discovered the problem. The purple-gold flower bud on Xie Zuo’s demon soul tree was really gone!

Xie Zuo liked this bud on his demon soul very much. He had described it to Huo Yao almost every day since he discovered it. Now that he found that it was indeed missing, his entire demon soul tree was trembling.

“Ah——!” Xie Zuo yelled, opened his eyes, and fell to the ground in pain. “It’s gone, it’s just dropped! What’s going on?!”

Huo Yao looked at the heartbroken Xie Zuo and simply didn’t know how to comfort him.

The little bud appeared suddenly and disappeared completely.

Xie Zuo searched unwillingly for a few days and rummaged through every leaf on his demon soul tree, but not even a trace of the small flower bud remained.

Xie Zuo’s mood was so bad that even Huo Yao couldn’t make him feel better.

Ever since he lost his little flower bud, he had been wandering around the abyss with a sullen face every day. Whenever he saw an evil creature that he didn’t like, he would go up and beat them up, silencing all the evil spirits in the abyss.

The evil demons suppressed in the abyss were not ordinary people. They all had caused trouble and great harm to others. It was just a matter of punishment by rotting away in this sunless abyss. But it was really humiliating to always suffered from Xie Zuo’s idleness. The evil demons even hated themselves for doing evil in the first place.

.

Seeing Xie Zuo like this, Huo Yao had a headache. Before he could think of a way to coax him, he was in trouble again.

Xie Zuo was very picky about food since he came back from the human world. He wouldn’t eat raw meat in one bite, and cooked meat had to be roasted to be delicious before he would eat it.

Because he was in a bad mood these days, he didn’t eat much. After finally recovering from the sadness of losing the bud, he decided to have a good meal first and asked Huo Yao to roast a plump monster for him.

The aroma of Huo Yao roasting the monster overflowed, making Lao Luo’s mouth water like a waterfall, and even Wu Xiao couldn’t help but poke his head in to take a look.

“Here,” Huo Yao fed the cut meat to Xie Zuo’s mouth.

Xie Zuo smelled the meat and frowned, but thinking that Huo Yao had been cooking for him for a long time, he still ate the meat.

“Ugh—!”

Xie Zuo spit it out as soon as he swallowed it.

Huo Yao hurriedly fed him water, but he couldn’t drink it at all. He hugged his stomach and bowed. “My stomach hurts…”

Huo Yao was really panicked! Xie Zuo was a demon king with profound demonic power. Ordinary minor injuries and pains couldn’t do anything to him. In the past, when he was struck by lightning every day, he rarely cried out about pain. What was going on now?!

Xie Zuo was sweating coldly, wishing he could shrink into a ball. It hurt so much, it felt like an arrow was stabbing him recklessly and fiercely in his stomach, and every blow hurt to the core of his bones.

Huo Yao picked him up and forced him to lie down. “Be patient, let me see.”

The gentle holy light that could heal everything overflowed from Huo Yao’s palm, and he gently placed his hand on Xie Zuo’s belly.

Miraculously, wherever Huo Yao’s hand touched, Xie Zuo’s stomach really didn’t hurt anymore. His powerful divine power seemed to have completely wrapped up the arrow in his belly, preventing it from causing any more trouble.

Xie Zuo gasped for air, “What happened to me?”

Huo Yao did not say a word.

Xie Zuo was annoyed when Huo Yao didn’t answer.

“Hello? Deity of Thunder, your wife is in pain. Where have you gone?”

Huo Yao came back to his senses, lowered his head slowly, and looked at Xie Zuo with a strange look.

This was the first time Xie Zuo saw Huo Yao like this, and he even shrank back: ‘What’s wrong? Is he really suffering from a serious illness?’

As soon as Xie Zuo moved, Huo Yao immediately said: “Don’t move, let me touch it again.”

Xie Zuo really didn’t dare to move. After a while, he saw Huo Yao was stunned again, and urged: “What’s wrong? What did you find?”

Huo Yao didn’t dare to speak for a while. He, he felt a small heartbeat in Xie Zuo’s belly! There was a new little life in his belly!

What did this mean?
