On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Getting the information passed by Fiona, Aaron got excited and led his troops to hell. The sand storm was hard to overcome and March forward. He was surprised to see how the Demon army has already been guarding their land.

The sun was above their head, scorching hot. Aaron asked the troop to set up the camp near a water resource and decided to wait till the Demon King Huo, his half brother would step out and plead to him, a day dream he wanted to realise. But a days passed there was no sign of any Demon authorities. Aaron lost it and ordered his army to attack.

The army entered the Hell, penetrating and attacking all the strategies and security formations very easily as the information got from the inside.

Dritan looked at his son and told him how Aqua has been right about it.

"We don't need them, she back stabbed you taking all your mercy on her, execute the mother and daughter, " Dritan nodded and patted his son's shoulder. "Quickly get away, I will handle this," he told his son who refused instantly. "We cannot both step into dangers, everybody needs you okay, remember that, go protect Aqua, that's the new future, the reason Emperor trying to kill you is because he is afraid he could be replaced. It must be just you, there just be something he knows more about,"

"What are you talking about?" Huo had no idea what his father was saying.

"Emperor is not afraid of only you, your cultivation or the soul ripper sword. He is afraid of your future, he is afraid of possibibility of the genes you will give birth to, a dragon uniting with the spiritual dragon blood will give birth to the most powerful child, who will rule the universe, there has never been a case like that, the myth says, nobody knows if it is true,"

"Why are you so sure that I'm a dragon?" Huo wanted to know. And Dritan finally let out the truth about his and Huo'er's real identity.

"You're a dragon, both your mother and I, are from heaven, I was my father's foster child. My father adopted me when he found me lost near the border after the death of his sons in the great battle. Tai is not the real Phoenix, he usurped the throne from my Phoenix descendants and killed all of us, but I escaped. Hence you are not a demon by blood, but nobody knows except the Empress, your mother. Your mother is a dragon. So are you, the reason we don't get affected even after practicing the demonic cultivation is only because the nature our hearts can't be tamed easily," he revealed everything to his son. Even her son Aaron has not possessed half the powers she has, Emperor is using your mother for her powers threatening her in the name of us, it's not because she don't love us," Huo'er felt hurt and upset when he heard this. He hated how both the important women in his life are used has containers of power.

"Why didn't you tell me this before? At this final moments, Pa," for the first time Huo addressed Dritan as his father. Dritan's eyes filled with tears, patted his son's shoulder and walked away. "Leave, leave now"

Listening to his father, Huo set out to escape from the Demon Clan. But he did not follow Aqua to Water Realm, instead went to the Celestial palace to rescue his mother. He at any cost wanted to protect his family, to live as a family, his dream, to make them come true. He apparated and entered the palace quickly.

He willingly walked into the danger himself. He managed to defeat the palace guards again and entered the Empress' chamber. He saw his mother sitting on her chairs, looking traumatised. Soon as he walked towards her, she was shocked to see who standing before her, dripping in blood, holding the soul ripper in his right hand. She ran towards him and hugged him. "Huo'er, " she called him.

"Forgive me," she said as she weeped. "Forgive me," She took his face into his hands while tears ran down her cheeks. Huo did not have any idea what to tell the Empress or how to handle his mother, lacking experience.

"Forgive me," she said again, and cried hugging him, not caring the fact that he had blood all over his armour. It left a stain on her gown.

"It's alright, it's fine," he consoled her.

"It was never alright for me," she said wiping her tears and took his hands in hers.

"Let's leave, " he said nothing else, took dragged her by her hands and apparated to the outside not listening to anything she had to say. The palace guards rushed towards then as they left and missed by chance. They rushed to Emperor Tai to report about the abduction of the Heavenly Empress, little did they know who Huo was and why he took the Empress with him.

Emperor Tai fumed with anger and released the royal decree to kill Huo on sight and reward the winner with kilos of gold and a official post in the royal court. The guards went crazy and set out to capture Huo.

Huo took the Empress to his usual place in the woods near the river banks that nobody knew about yet. To his surprise, somebody has been waiting for him there, somebody he wanted to be safe but walking around on her own will. He put his sword back in it's sheath and walked over leaving his mother's hand.

Empress was equally surprised to see the reaction from Huo'er's side. She saw a part of Dritan in him when Dritan was young and just like them, in love and choosing what's not meant to be. She wished she could stop her son but did not want to spoil the next moment she reconciled with her long lost son. She stood there watching everything.
