The Mighty Demon Lord! Running a Corner Shop After Retirement?

[Secret-identity reveal + goofy sweet angst + childcare assist]

|Cool and restrained × roguishly flirtatious|

Fierce and domineering in public, wholesale spicy-snack seller in private: Ye Linyuan, the world-destroying Demon Lord who once wiped out thirty-six celestial realms with a single sword strike, now has a bigger problem. The immortal sect elders have bought up all the spicy strips, and his stock is running low!

Until one day, an Immortal Lord shows up with a ledger. “Demon Lord, you’re suspected of illegally collecting pension contributions!”

Behind the counter, Ye Linyuan sucks on a lollipop and sneers. “You can check the books, but Immortal Lord, your sword tassel has gotten tangled in my belt three times. Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”

And then, to top it all off, a little toddler pops up from behind the counter. “Is this handsome big brother part of our family?”

The Three Realms are collectively stunned: Is the fearsome Demon Lord really going to become a laid-back shopkeeper?

The Demon Realm’s general kneels in front of the register and wails, “Your Majesty! Are you selling instant noodles as part of some grand master plan?!”

No one knows that Ye Linyuan opened his little store to conceal an obsession that has spanned two lifetimes...

In his past life, Xuanxiao’s soul scattered as he saved Ye Linyuan during the war between the Three Realms.

Ye Linyuan could have ruled the Three Realms, but instead he left behind these words:

“I’d rather have you than the world,” and followed him into reincarnation.

In this life, he tends his humble little shop and waits for the return of an old friend.

This time, he’ll protect Xuanxiao, and this hard-won, ordinary world.

→Immortal Lord, what are you hiding behind that ledger: official business or your true feelings?

Watch Ye Linyuan take on the ultimate challenge: winning over his beloved while raising a child!
