Compared to being crowned a king, the other rewards, although also extremely generous, were basically nothing. Yun Che hurriedly pulled Xiao Yun and said, “Why don’t you thank the Little Demon Queen quickly…” Then he lowered his voice and said, “Don’t refuse.”
“Ah…” Xiao Yun seemed to have just woken up from a dream. He stammered in fear, “Xiao Yun…thank you, Little Demon Queen…yeah…grace.”
"Very good. It couldn't be better if you are willing to accept it." The Little Demon Queen nodded happily.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Little Demon Queen's so-called reward to Xiao Yun was actually to help the Yun family. After Helian Kuang's face twitched for a while, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Little Demon Queen, the matter of being crowned a king is no small matter, how can you..." "You don't have to say anymore!" Helian Kuang's voice was interrupted by the cold voice of the Little Demon Queen before she finished speaking. She didn't even look at Helian Kuang, and said coldly: "Didn't you repeatedly shout that the matter of the Demon King Seal is greater than the sky, and that the Yun family should be executed for losing the Demon King Seal... In this case, if the Demon King Seal is returned, it will be a great achievement! What's wrong with being crowned a king and rewarded!"
"But……"
“Why not!” The Little Demon Queen’s voice became even colder. She snorted, “Master Helian, if you had risked your life to go to Tianxuan to save my father, and if you had died and your family was destroyed in order to bring back the Demon King Seal, leaving only your son alone in the world, I would definitely be willing to make your son a king and give him a life of glory! If not, then shut up.”
Helian Kuang's face flushed and he could no longer speak. Those who were about to speak also shrank their necks, and for a moment no one dared to object.
The corners of Yun Che's mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled faintly, "Yun Che thanks the Little Demon Queen for her help... In addition, I would like to ask the Little Demon Queen to give the Overlord Pill to Xiao Yun as well. Yun Che's profound strength is currently low, and he is still a long way from reaching the Overlord Realm. He will not need the Overlord Pill in the short term, and Xiao Yun has been in the Half-Step Overlord Realm for a long time, so it is most appropriate to give him the Overlord Pill."
"Brother..." Xiao Yun turned around, his face full of emotion.
Everyone in the hall was stunned... Yun Che actually handed over the Overlord Pill, something that even the guardian family regarded as a sacred object, to someone else! What a broad mind!
The Little Demon Queen said, “This Overlord Pill has already been decided to be given to you. You naturally have the right to decide where it belongs. Since you are willing to give it to Xiao Yun, then it will be as you wish.”
"King Baoqing, please give this Overlord Pill to Xiao Yun now."
"yes!"
King Baoqing stood up, picked up a black jade box and walked towards Xiao Yun. As he took a step, a pair of eyes were fixed on the black jade box, their eyes were full of strong envy that could not be suppressed, and many young people even kept swallowing their saliva. No one thought that the final destination of this Overlord Pill would be Yun Xiao, who was usually inconspicuous and only used as a topic of conversation.
Compared to the surprise of others, there was one person who was overjoyed... No. 7 in the world. She excitedly shouted to the family members around her: "Did you hear that? Brother Yun has been crowned the king... He has been crowned the king! Wow! I knew... Brother Yun would become the most amazing person!"
"Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother! I told you to look down on Brother Yun... Now Brother Yun has been crowned the King by the Little Demon Queen herself! He is a hundred times more powerful than all of you. Let's see if you still have the qualifications to look down on him in the future!" Number Seven Under Heaven clenched her fists, puffed her cheeks, and made the strongest counterattack against her brothers. As her excitement gradually cooled, she became sad and whispered to herself: "But Brother Yun is so pitiful. His biological parents have already... have already..."
"This kid is actually from such a background." Number Three Under Heaven touched his chin and said with a crooked mouth: "Seventh sister, don't be too excited. This kid's status is no longer what it used to be. In addition, the Yun family's momentum has reversed. I'm afraid that many princesses from royal families will take the initiative to pay for him. By then, he won't care about you anymore."
“You’re talking nonsense!” Number Seven Under Heaven slapped Number Three Under Heaven hard and said angrily, “Brother Yun is not that kind of person. He will only love me in his life, humph!”
"I didn't expect that Yun Xiao actually had such a deep affection behind him. No wonder Yun Qinghong and his wife have always treated him as their own son over the years. Even though there were all kinds of discussions from the outside world, they still cared for him." Tianxia Xiongtu said with emotion.
Tian Xia Wu Di glanced at Tian Xia No. 7 and said with a smile, “With descendants like Yun Che and the Little Demon Queen’s public promise, the Yun Family’s strong rise is inevitable. Yun Xiao has now been crowned as the second Outer King after the Demon King. Now, there is no longer a question of whether he is worthy of the Seven Treasures, but rather a question of whether the Seven Treasures are worthy of him, hehehe.”
Tianxia Wudi laughed mischievously. Tianxia Xiongtu snorted lightly and said nothing.
When Xiao Yun took over the black jade box containing the Overlord Pill, his mind was still in a daze. He was too stunned to speak a word until King Baoqing stepped away.
The Little Demon Queen said, "Xiao Yun, your current profound strength cultivation is just half a step into the Hegemony Profound Realm. Taking this Hegemony Pill can help you break through the bottleneck and enter the Hegemony Realm. The King-making Ceremony will be held on a date after the Grand Ceremony. You can leave for now."
"Yes..." Xiao Yun responded, raised his head, and suddenly asked: "I wonder... can I give this Overlord Pill in my hand to someone else?"
The little demon said expressionlessly: "Since it has been given to you, you can do whatever you want with it. Use it yourself, give it to others, burn it, or throw it away. It's all up to you."
“Xiao Yun thanks the Little Demon Queen.” Xiao Yun’s expression was much more relaxed and happy. He carefully held the black jade box and walked down under the various gazes of the crowd.
“Yun Che, are you satisfied with this?” The Little Demon Queen asked Yun Che.
“Of course I am satisfied. Thank you Little Demon Queen for your help.” Yun Che nodded sincerely.
“In that case, what is your second request?” asked the Little Demon Queen.
Yun Che’s expression became solemn. He stood beside Yun Canghai’s body and turned to face the seven Dongxi family heads who had gloomy and uncertain expressions… When his gaze fell on them, the hearts of the seven family heads tightened at the same time. They had been tormented by Yun Che repeatedly before, and now facing Yun Che’s suddenly gloomy expression, they almost became frightened birds.
Not disappointing them, Yun Che raised his arm and pointed his finger straight at the seven of them. He spoke slowly and firmly, “Helian, Jiufang, Chiyang, Nangong, Xiao Family, Bai Family, Lin Family… I want the heads of these seven families to kneel down and confess to my grandfather today in this hall, in front of my grandfather’s body, under the gaze of the people of the world… and swear to be loyal to the Little Demon Queen until death! Otherwise, their descendants will be slaves and prostitutes for eternity!!”
Yun Che's words today had already shocked countless people. When he said this, everyone... especially the people in Demon King City were shocked. He pointed at the seven family heads, and every word he said was an extremely strong command. And the people he ordered... were the heads of the seven guardian families!
But referring to Yun Che's previous words and deeds, people were not too surprised that he would say such words. What the seven families had done to the Yun family and Yun Canghai over the years was known to everyone, and they themselves had admitted that they should apologize to Yun Canghai, which was morally right.
As for swearing allegiance to the Little Demon Queen, it is only natural.
The seven family heads gnashed their teeth secretly, their hearts were filled with rage. Yun Che listed their "serious crimes" with every word and action, crushed their arguments, tore apart their disguises, and scolded them like being stripped naked and standing in front of everyone's eyes, until they could no longer refute, and even felt almost ashamed. They knew best what they had done in the past hundred years... But as the family heads who protected their families, how could they be willing to kneel down and apologize to Yun Canghai in public!
Because, wouldn't this be equivalent to the seven families of them bowing to the Yun family in front of the whole world today! !
Helian Kuang's face was dark, and he forced a cold smile and said, "Yun Che, you are a child of the Yun family, you are not qualified to ask us to do anything..."
“Helian Family Master, you are mistaken!” Helian Kuang was interrupted by Yun Che before he could finish his words. He said in a voice that was stiffer and deeper than Helian Kuang’s: “I am not asking you, I am ordering you! Asking? Oh, you have been doing so many dirty things to maliciously suppress my Yun Family for the past hundred years. You know very well who tarnished my grandfather’s reputation. You know better than anyone else! You treat my Yun Family so well, and you still want my Yun Family to ask you? Oh, my Yun Family is not so mean... It’s an order! Because this is what you owe to our Yun Family and my grandfather!”
“More!” Without waiting for the other party to speak, Yun Che had already raised the Demon King Seal and growled, “Don’t ever say that I have no right to order you around. The Demon King Seal is in my hands now. If you don’t obey me today, I will never hand it over to the Little Demon Queen!”
“Didn’t you claim earlier that the matter of the Demon Emperor Seal was greater than the heavens? Because of the loss of the Demon Emperor Seal, our Yun family committed a great sin and should be exterminated. If it was for the Demon Emperor Seal, you could die, and if it was for loyalty, you could sacrifice your dignity and honor… But now, you don’t have to risk your lives to rush to the Profound Sky Continent to retrieve the Demon Emperor Seal. You don’t have to take any risks or waste any resources. You only need to do what you should have done, what a person with a little bit of shame should do, and you can return the Demon Emperor Seal to the Little Demon Empress and let the entire Illusory Demon Realm be reborn… I think the heads of the seven guardian families should have no reason to refuse, right? Unless all your previous words, as well as the ‘loyalty’ and ‘dignity’ you mentioned, were just farts!”
The faces of the seven family heads suddenly became stiff and ugly, like feces that had been dried in the wind for several days. Yun Che not only asked them to kneel down and apologize to Yun Canghai in public, but also completely blocked their retreat... And what blocked their retreat was clearly the words they had shouted "righteously" when they had stated the "great sins" of the Yun family before.
