I'm Investigating妖怪Cases in the Human Realm

As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...

Chapter 249 Drinking

In the Demon Realm, inside the Demon King's palace, Qi You, the chieftain of the wolf clan, stood before the Demon King Qingcheng's desk, watching the Demon King work.

"Have you looked enough? Why aren't you leaving?"

After being stared at for most of the day, Qingcheng couldn't take it anymore. She rolled her eyes at Qiyou and said, "Go away, stop staring. I will not agree to you going to the Demon Realm."

"Why? Are you just going to let that guy go like this? You know, Tanlang is so cunning, there aren't many opportunities to kill him."

Qi You said to Qing Cheng with a displeased look, "I finally managed to find out that he went to the border city. You can't stop me. You have to send troops to help me."

"You wish! I said you're not allowed to go, and that means you're not allowed to go."

Qingcheng reluctantly put down her work and tried to persuade Qiyou: "I know you want to deal with this traitor, but even in the border city, it's still the Demon Realm. The Demon Realm is so dangerous. Have you forgotten that you almost didn't make it back last time?"

"I'm not afraid. Besides, the last one was just an accident. As long as I bring enough men this time and am careful, I'm sure I'll succeed."

Qi You still didn't give up on capturing Tan Lang. Today, he learned from his scouts that Tan Lang might be heading to the border city of the Demon Realm, a small city between the Demon Realm and the Monster Realm. So he hurriedly ran to Qing Cheng to request troops to be transferred to the Demon Realm. However, he didn't expect Qing Cheng to disagree with him, saying it was unsafe. This infuriated him!

Qingcheng knew that he really wanted to get rid of the traitor in his clan, but the Demon Realm was too dangerous, and Qiyou's disappearance before had already frightened him, so she would never agree to let him go to the Demon Realm again.

"Alright, go back. I won't agree. So what if there's one more traitor in the clan? What's so unbearable about that? The snake clan rebelled last time, and they've been suppressed. The other snake clans are still doing just fine in the demon realm. What's so shameful about that?"

Qingcheng felt that Qiyou was ashamed because there was a traitor in the clan, which was why he was thinking about killing Tanlang every day.

Qi You disagreed with Qing Cheng's words, saying unhappily, "What? That's not why I want to kill him, okay? I just feel that keeping him around will always be a threat. Besides, so many brothers died last time, and I want to take revenge on him. Furthermore, he knows our demon realm so well. He's behaving himself in the demon realm now, but what if he becomes a traitor and leads the demon realm back to attack us? I still think we can't keep him alive. It would be best to kill him if we have the chance."

"The problem is that your chances of killing him are not high."

Qingcheng had been wanting to beat up Qiyou for so long, why was this guy so stubborn?

He took a sip of the juice that Lord Hongyan had just poured for him and said, "What if you fail again? Even if you don't die, you can't let the other brothers die in vain, can you?"

Upon hearing this, Qi You opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but then seemed to remember something and fell silent. After a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, then I won't go. I'll go back first."

"Hmm, don't be impulsive. I'm not saying you can't kill Tanlang, but you have to consider whether the timing is right."

As Qingcheng watched Qiyou leave her study, she sighed and said, "Sigh~ That guy, he's always so impulsive, but the most despicable one is Tanlang!"

"Alright, there are plenty of opportunities to kill a traitor. Besides, how long do you think a demon who has been a traitor can survive in a place like the Demon Realm? Isn't that great?"

Just as he was sighing, Lord Hongyan came out with a bowl of chilled jelly. He said, "Here, try it. I just learned how to make it. I don't know if it will taste good."

In order to win the heart of a demon king, Lord Hongyan has gone from the public hall to the kitchen. Recently, he has even started researching desserts and other snacks. His cooking skills are quite good, and everything he makes is delicious. Although Qingcheng always says that it is not good, she always finishes all of his food.

"Tsk~ Why did you make it again? Didn't I tell you your cooking is bad? Your skills are so bad that it's unpalatable. Only I would deign to eat your food."

Qingcheng took the jelly and immediately took a big bite, while simultaneously complaining about the food.

Fortunately, Lord Hongyan already knew that his 'little wife' was a demon who liked to say one thing but mean another, so he didn't say anything, but just smiled and watched Qingcheng finish the whole bowl of icy jelly.

"Is it delicious, Qingcheng?"

After watching Qingcheng put down her empty bowl, Lord Hongyan asked with a smile, his tone full of pleasure and doting.

Qingcheng licked her still slightly sweet lips and said in a pretentious tone, "It's not tasty. By the way, do you have any more of this that tastes so bad? If you do, please bring it out and let me finish it for you. It tastes so bad, so don't give it to anyone else. I'll reluctantly finish it for you."

"And one more thing, oh dear~ it tastes so awful, you must have gone to so much trouble~"

Seeing Qingcheng's adorable expression, Lord Hongyan didn't expose him and gave him another small bowl of cold noodles.

As Qi You walked back after leaving the palace, he kept thinking about what had just happened. He actually hated Tan Lang. If it weren't for Tan Lang's betrayal, so many of his fellow wolf clansmen wouldn't have died. Qi You always cared a lot about his clansmen.

However, he really couldn't act impulsively this time. Last time, it was because of his carelessness that so many of his kin died. If he still insisted on going to the Demon Realm to kill people, he would probably take the risk and go to the Demon Realm alone to assassinate Tanlang.
