Chapter 128 The cunning fox demon was imprisoned by the pure-hearted Taoist priest. (42 chapters)

After hearing what it said, Yunheng's gaze gradually became deep and complicated, as if she was plotting something.

888: Hehe, Sheng Sheng, don't thank me too much, your little mouse is here to give you some goodies, I guarantee you'll be thrilled.

Yu Sheng, who was far away in the demon realm, suddenly sneezed.

Yu Sheng: Why do I feel a chill down my back?

Yunheng specifically instructed it not to tell Yu Sheng about tonight's events, and 888 gave it an "OK" sign.

"Don't worry, even if you don't tell me, I won't tell Sheng Sheng about what happened today."

Yunheng softly hummed in agreement, then turned off the light and went to sleep.

After Yunheng got up early to pack her things, 888 on the small couch was woken up by the noise and drooped its head listlessly.

"No, Daddy Yun, why are you doing this so early?"

888 was incredulous. It looked at the sky outside and made sure it wasn't seeing things. It was just getting light. So what was it in such a hurry for?

Based on his previous incredibly fast pace, he should have reached the demon realm in ten days at most. He's already been traveling for ten days, so why would he need to wait a little longer?

888 doesn't understand.

Although I know he's just trying to see his wife sooner, he's in a bit too much of a rush.

Even the King was more anxious than him.

"I'm up, I'll be leaving soon."

888 pouted in dissatisfaction, "Daddy Yun, do we really need to save this little bit of time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a cold, sharp glare from Yun Heng.

"Okay, okay, I'll get up, alright?"

There was no other way; 888 finally gave in.

Before leaving, the disciples who remained at Xingyue Temple came and looked at Yunheng with reluctance. "Junior Uncle, will you come back in the future?"

"Yes, I will. If I have time, I will bring my wife back to see you."

Disciples: This is such a huge bowl of dog food! It turns out that Junior Brother A-Tong wasn't talking nonsense before. Junior Uncle really is with the Demon King.

He even openly lived off his girlfriend.

Unbeknownst to Yunheng, at this moment, the disciples' idealized image of his junior uncle shattered completely.

I never expected you to be like this, Junior Uncle.

Ah Tong looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and knew that his junior uncle couldn't stand not showing off his love.

Yunheng gave a few instructions and then left.

A Tong and his group watched his departing figure and silently returned to Xingyue Temple.

When Yu Sheng woke up, she felt like the sky had fallen.

The cause was naturally Bai Zhi, whom he had dismissed yesterday, suddenly appearing in his room. The moment he opened his eyes, he was met with that magnified, unremarkable face.

He was startled when he suddenly saw that face.

What startled him was that Yu Sheng suddenly punched him, sending him flying.

The punch landed squarely on Bai Zhi's cheek, sending saliva, blood, and teeth flying, making Yu Sheng feel nauseous.

Why did you let him see such a disgusting scene so early in the morning?

Bai Zhi was suddenly hit, and he felt that Yu Sheng was acting strangely, and his anger rose rapidly.

He was already furious that his parents wanted him to take A Chu's place in seducing Yu Sheng.

He forced himself to come over despite feeling nauseous, only to be met with Yu Sheng's fist.

His pent-up anger naturally erupted.

However, he still retained some rationality.

He did not forget his parents' instructions.

Even though he had a sour face and was very angry, he still didn't lash out at Yu Sheng.

With a dark expression, he wiped the blood off his face and straightened his clothes as if he hadn't noticed anything.

"Your Majesty, I have come here today only on behalf of my sister..."

"Coming to stand up for justice?" Yu Sheng continued, picking up where he left off.

Bai Zhi waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. I have come to apologize with a bundle of thorns on my back."

“I was unaware of what A-Chu did to Your Majesty yesterday. If I had known, I certainly would not have let her in.”

Yu Sheng tapped the table lightly with her fingers, and upon hearing this, she couldn't help but chuckle.

This smile stunned Bai Zhi.

He had to admit that Yu Sheng's appearance was exceptional, a rare beauty in the world, and if the person he was trying to seduce was Yu Sheng... it wouldn't be unacceptable.

Bai Zhi lowered his head and thought to himself.

Yu Sheng stood up and looked down at him.

A fleeting look of disgust crossed his eyes.

He looked Bai Zhi up and down, and could tell that he had dressed up carefully, with even his hair showing meticulous attention to detail.

But in Yu Sheng's view, it was all a waste of time.

No matter how beautiful the clothes are, they can't withstand being worn by an ordinary-looking person; it's simply a waste of their beauty.

He could also guess what Bai Zhi and the Bai family were thinking.

They simply heard about his relationship with Yunheng and assumed he preferred men. They thought that since their daughter wasn't suitable, it was quite a coincidence that they had a son!

If daughters aren't good enough, surely sons will do!

Yu Sheng really admired the Bai family's thought process.

I don't know why they are so obsessed with the position of Empress Dowager.

If all else fails, you could just usurp the throne; it would be better to push your own son in front of him and let him suffer.

This is absolutely outrageous! It's ridiculous that they opened the door for someone so outrageous! It's beyond ridiculous!

Bai Zhi didn't understand why he had just laughed, so he looked up at Yu Sheng.

But he found that Yu Sheng's face was cold and his eyes were icy, as if he wanted to kill someone, which made him terrified.

Yu Sheng bent down, reached out and pinched his chin, her tone somewhat intriguing, "Bai Zhi, you said you came here to apologize on behalf of A Chu?"

Bai Zhi nodded, not understanding what was going on.

"So this is how you apologize?"

"You dared to trespass into my bedchamber without my permission, or perhaps... all members of the Bai family have a penchant for peeping at others while they sleep?"

"And another thing... don't push everything onto others. Did you not make any mistakes yesterday? If you hadn't made any mistakes, I wouldn't have dismissed you from your post."

Yu Sheng released him. "Get out of here. Go back and tell your father to behave himself and stop coveting things that don't belong to him. I've tolerated the Bai family long enough all these years."

"If he doesn't restrain himself, then I will certainly not show any mercy."

Bai Zhi clenched his fists tightly.

His eyes were bloodshot. He would repay Yu Sheng for today's humiliation tenfold when his father successfully ascended to the throne of the Demon King.

Bai Zhi slunk away in disgrace.

Yu Sheng pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling somewhat weary.

It seems I won't be able to go see Yunheng for the next couple of days.

In private, he cursed the Bai family thoroughly.

Although he knew the Bai family wasn't a good family because of the plot, in the end, the Bai family hadn't done anything significant yet.

If it were just for that reason, he would have dealt with the person without a second thought.

Naturally, some members of the fox clan would be dissatisfied.

Therefore, he could only have Bai Zhi deliver a message to provoke the Bai family, thus giving him a reason to take action...
