Tales Of Demons And Gods Chapter 490

“Father, I’m Ye Zong.” Ye Zong cupped his hands towards Ye Mo along with a bitter smile.
“Ye...Ye Zong?” Ye Mo was dumbfounded before his face sank as he turned to look at Nie Li, “Nie Li, you’re not trying to mess with me by finding a random kid, right?”
“How is that possible? How would I dare to lie to you?” Nie Li smiled bitterly as he went on, “He’s indeed father-in-law!”
Ye Mo blanked as he looked at Ye Zong for a long time. At this moment, he couldn’t figure out how Ye Zong became a little kid.
He wasn’t the only one as even Ye Ziyun was also astounded. Is she going to call this kid ‘father’? Isn’t that a little too unbelievable?
Looking at Ye Mo and Ye Ziyun’s reaction, Nie Li smiled awkwardly, “There’s nothing I can do about it either. Father-in-law’s body was formed using the Spring of Life, and the amount of Spring of Life that I have is limited, so I can only construct a child’s physique for father-in-law. But when father-in-law’s cultivation reaches the Martial Ancestor Realm, he will be able to change his appearance as he wants, and at that time, he will be able to return to his original appearance.”
“That seems to be the situation.” Ye Zong smiled awkwardly.
“Putting it in a nutshell, since the Demon Lord could seize the body of others using Spiritual Constellation Technique, father-in-law seized the Spring of Life to create a body from himself. I wonder if this explanation is easier to understand?” Nie Li explained.
“It makes sense, but…” Ye Mo fell into a brief silence before he went on, “I still can’t believe that this person is Ye Zong.”
Listening to those words, Ye Zong felt depressed and pairing it with his tiny physique; it actually seemed somewhat… adorable. Thinking about it, Nie Li couldn’t help laughing out.

Along with Nie Li’s laughter, it instantly attracted Ye Zong’s glare.
“You brat actually dare to take joy in others misfortune?!” Ye Zong roared furiously.
Bearing his laughter back, Nie Li replied, “I’m sorry, father-in-law. I couldn’t hold it.”
“Grandpa, I believe that Nie Li won’t joke around in this matter. Why don’t we test him and see if he’s father?” Ye Ziyun spoke her thoughts after a brief pondering before she looked at Ye Zong, “When I was young, mother gave me a keepsake, and do you know what it is?”
“Spiritual Butterfly Flower!” Ye Zong answered without any hesitation.
Hearing the answer, Ye Ziyun turned to look at Ye Zong.
“I believe many people know about this matter, as well. Let me ask something that no one knows. If you’re able to answer it, then I’ll believe that you’re Ye Zong!” Ye Mo replied.
“Father, please speak your question.” Ye Zong cupped his hands together.
“There was once when I beat you up when you were thirteen. What’s the reason why I beat you up?” Ye Mo stared at Ye Zong.
Hearing that question, Ye Zong’s face turned red as he replied, “Father, why do you have to ask that question?”
Listening to their conversation by the side, Ye Ziyun and Nie Li couldn’t help perking up their ears as curiosity piqued in their hearts.
“Because only Ye Zong and I know about that!” Ye Mo replied, firmly as he stared at Ye Zong.
“How do you want me to talk about it with kids around?” Ye Zong was depressed as he went on, “Father, can you change your question?”
“No, I insist on asking it!” Ye Mo remained firm with his decision.
“This, this…” Ye Zong was instantly left in an awkward position. He found it hard to answer upon recalling that incident.
“Looks like you’re not Ye Zong…” Ye Mo’s eyes flickered with disappointment as he continued, “How I wish that you were!”

Thereafter, Ye Mo turned to look at Nie Li, “Nie Li, I know that you want to cheer me up, and I appreciate your effort, but it’s impossible to bring the dead back to life. It’s a pity that as a father, I had to send my son off!”
“This…” Nie Li immediately grew anxious as he looked at Ye Zong and spoke out, “Father-in-law, why aren’t you answering? If you don’t answer, how will Lord Ye Mo be able to verify? You clearly know about it!”
Along with his words, even Ye Ziyun’s face flickered with disappointment.
“When I was thirteen…” Ye Zong started to hesitate as he continued, “How do you want me to say something so embarrassing?”
“Is your face really that important? Are you willing to see Lord Ye Mo so sad?” Nie Li replied indignantly.
On the other hand, Ye Mo looks upset that made others feel heartache for him.
“Fine, fine!” Ye Zong was depressed as he went on, “Isn’t it just because I peed my pants?”
“Peed your pants?” Nie Li felt as if he had heard something unbelievable and reaffirmed, “You peed your pants when you were thirteen?”
Ye Zong immediately felt his face burning upon hearing it.
Standing by the side, even Ye Ziyun was curious as she looked at Ye Mo with her eyes widened.
“Continue!” Ye Mo urged as his eyes lit up.
“Father-in-law, you don’t have to be embarrassed. All of us peed our pants before, just that peeing your pants at thirteen is a little… But it’s still understandable!” Nie Li laughed.
Ye Zong was extremely depressed, but when he looked at Ye Mo’s expectant gaze, he went on, “I accidentally saw Ye Ziyun’s mother shower when I was thirteen, and I nearly got discovered. In the end, I had to hide in a spot for three hours, which resulted in…”
“Father, you…” Ye Ziyun was shocked as he looked at Ye Zong. She never imagined that Ye Zong would do something like this.”
“Thirteen years old… father-in-law, aren’t you a little too developed at such a young age?” Nie Li chuckled as he looked at Ye Zong.
“This… it was an accident!” Ye Zong was depressed as he replied.
“Accident? You accidentally hide in the cabinet for three hours? Tsk tsk.” Nie Li looked at Ye Zong with interest.
Standing by the side, even Ye Ziyun chuckled with her face blushed before she peeked at Nie Li.
“I…” Ye Zong felt depressed as he lowered his head.
“You’re really Ye Zong?” Ye Zong immediately became excited with tears covering his face as he quickly charged over and lifted Ye Zong.
“Father put me down!” Ye Zong couldn’t help crying out gloomily. But there’s nothing he could do about Ye Mo lifting him in the air.
“Father.” Ye Ziyun also cried out of happiness.
Looking at Ye Mo and Ye Ziyun’s appearance, Ye Zong sighed.
At this moment, Nie Li couldn’t help looking at Ye Zong and smiled, “Father-in-law, how knows how long it has been since Lord Ye Mo lifted you up? It just so happens that you can experience it today.”
Hearing Nie Li’s words, Ye Zong’s face instantly turned blank.
“Nie Li, I’m not done with you!” Ye Zong nearly went berserk. If it wasn’t for Nie Li making such a body for him, how would he be so embarrassed?!
“Father-in-law, please be appeased. I’ll apologise to you for it.” Nie Li chuckled.
At this moment, Ye Zong suddenly felt his face stung by a beard stubble as it turns out that Ye Mo kissed him on his cheeks as his face immediately sank.

Epilogue
Revised version now available! Amazon paperback, ebook, audiobook, Kobo, B&N, Google In the war-torn land of Cyraveil, four heroes strove to overthrow an empire. By cold steel and elemental sorcery, they brought peace to a warring land on the brink of destruction. As the flames died, the realm needed strong leadership, and who better than the champions who had saved the kingdom? But when the people sought out their saviors... they vanished. Matt, Blake, Jen, and Carl: the four mysterious companions, who together had deposed an insane ruler and saved countless lives, were gone—spirited back in a whirlwind of magic to a sleepy suburb in Mellbridge, Oregon, never to return. The friends found themselves home in the real world, exactly as they'd been the night they were taken, as if no time had passed... except only three came back. Hi there! This was my entry for National Novel Writing Month, because why only write one series at a time? The more the merrier! (meanwhile, my keyboard bursts into flames...) I'm also the writer of The Last Science, an ongoing low-fantasy/speculative sci-fi series. If you're familiar with that, you know what to expect here: lots of character-focused drama and dialogue, not a whole lot of traditional action. However, I'm writing a bit differently than usual here, and in a very different structure, so there should be some surprises for returning readers. I hope you enjoy it! [Discord] — for those of you who want to hang out and chat. Cover art (fullsize): Path of Revelation, by taenaron (Tobias Roetsch), modified by Etzoli. Normally I like to do my own cover art from scratch, but I was in a rush for the contest. Might be replaced down the line if I get time.
