The moment Ling Xiao suddenly disappeared, Gu Qingze felt as if his soul had been taken away, but the sudden emptiness did not last long.
He quickly calmed down, collected his emotions, and sorted out some of his previous doubts.
Not long ago, when Gu Qingze was on the verge of collapse, the original work, which had been blurred in his mind, became a little clearer in that instant, and he captured some key information from it.
Combined with the little information he knew, he could infer a story that was extremely bloody and clichéd.
There is no doubt that Ling Xiao's mother and the Demon King must be related.
Judging from the Demon King's current contradictory attitude towards Ling Xiao, he probably has a twisted love for Ling Xiao's mother and pure hatred for Ling Xiao.
As for why I have pure hatred towards Ling Xiao... Think about it, the person you like and have always regarded as a treasure, combined with another man, a human being whom he looked down upon, and gave birth to a child.
So when the Demon King saw Ling Xiao, he would probably think of the human man. Moreover, Ling Xiao's father was not wholeheartedly good to her. He still married three other wives and four concubines, which let Ling Xiao's mother down. He would hate him even more.
If Ling Xiao was filled with pure hatred, then his hatred towards Ling Xiao's father should be extreme.
As for why Ling Xiao’s father hasn’t been killed for so many years, it’s probably because the “blood contract” on the Demon King’s collarbone is working.
He also played the "substitute lover" trick. Not surprisingly, the reason why the woman he met before looked a bit like Ling Xiao, oh no, it should be like Ling Xiao's mother, was most likely not a coincidence, but the Demon King did it on purpose.
To make a malicious guess, maybe the Demon King's entire harem is filled with concubines who look very similar to Ling Xiao's mother.
But...what's the point of him speculating all this?
Gu Qingze sighed. Even though the Demon King hadn't done anything to him, the powerful pressure from him had still made him feel like his bones were breaking apart.
He was already in such pain, how much pain must Ling Xiao have felt when he was treated like that by the Demon King...
As he thought about it, his heart ached, and tears began to flow down his face like pearls from a broken string.
The demon king looked at him with red eyes from crying, and tsk- ...
This made him think of the woman in his memory again. Although Gu Qingze and that woman did not look very similar, it still reminded him of her.
Maybe it was because he had just seen the child she gave birth to with that disgusting human, which disturbed his mind and made him recall many old memories.
So, no matter who he looks at now, he will think of her.
The demon king was sitting on the throne, feeling very irritated. He needed a demon to stay with him for a while, so he gave instructions.
"He will be back in three hours."
After saying that, the Demon King snapped his fingers and disappeared.
Gu Qingze instantly felt the pressure around him disappear. He glanced at the empty throne, making sure that the Demon King had completely left, and then he stood up with difficulty.
The Demon King said that Ling Xiao would come back in three hours.
Three hours...that means six hours of waiting.
The mist in Gu Qingze's eyes had not yet dissipated. He gently wiped away the tears on his face. Now he had no other choice.
Moreover, the Demon King is so powerful that he should not bother to lie to him, so Ling Xiao will really come back in three hours, right?
Gu Qingze slowly moved his body, leaning against the wall little by little, to relieve his strength. All he had to do now was wait for Ling Xiao to come back and be by his side.
