"Why… why do you want to leave Wu Li, Xiao Ming? Is it because your demon friend invited you to return to the place where you were born?" Emperor Wu Shun rushed towards Yu Ming before asking questions. Even his hands once again gripped the demon's shoulders tightly, but Yu Ming almost snorted after hearing the questions.
He didn't mean to mock the Emperor in his heart, but he thought it was ridiculous when the Emperor assumed that Hao was his friend. He wanted to say that he had no friends in the demon realm, but in the end, he didn't say that, assuming that there was no need to bring up that matter in this situation.
"It wasn't because of what the fire demon said to me earlier, Your Majesty," Yu Ming finally answered. "Even before that demon invited me to return to my hometown, I already had plans to return to that place. That's because I had something that I couldn't leave behind in that place."
