Yan Xi felt uncomfortable from being pinched, his breathing was difficult, and his face flushed red. In the past, he would have begged for mercy, but now, not only did he not beg for mercy, but he had a cold face and tried hard to squeeze out a few words, "Then you... just kill me. I belong to Li Yancheng in life and his ghost in death. I can never like you in this life, and I can never be with you. The Demon Lord you like is already dead!"
"Lin Yanxi!" Jin Yuan's face twisted slightly, anger burning in his eyes, "Don't challenge my tolerance!"
As he said that, he suddenly pushed Yan Xi off the bed and let go of her hand.
Freed from his restraints, Yan Xi gasped for air. He climbed up from the ground, rubbing his neck, his face expressionless. "Ahem, I'm just telling the truth. I'm not challenging your tolerance. I don't remember the past. In my eyes, I am me, and the Demon Lord is the Demon Lord. He and I are different people. Why do you insist on treating me like him? Why do you insist on dragging me into the abyss and tempting me to become a demon? Don't you think I'm worthy of living a different way?"
I can see that you like him. If you like him, why do you want him to remember the past? Didn't you become possessed by demons because you were treated unfairly? Now I'm living a good life, but you want to destroy it with your own hands. You don't deserve to like him at all!"
"Shut up! How do you know I'm not worthy?!" Jin Yuan was completely enraged. He waved his hand and a powerful force rushed towards Yan Xi. Seeing this, Yan Xi quickly teleported away.
And at that moment, the wall behind him suddenly cracked.
When Yan Xi saw it, he imagined the scene in his mind with fear and shuddered all over.
Jin Yuan caught a glimpse of his expression, and his anger subsided a lot. He stepped forward and grabbed his hand, lowering his body, tensing his muscles, and emitting an aura full of strong aggression. "Your Majesty has suffered far more than I have. If he forgets the humiliation of the past and helps those who have hurt him, that would be the true abyss. Lin Yanxi, you have lived in honey since you were a child, and you don't know what it feels like. You don't deserve to say these words, let alone accuse me."
Yan Xi tried to pull his hand back, but found the other person's grip incredibly strong. He lowered his head to look at Jin Yuan's vein-riddled hand and said coldly, "I admit that you are victims, but the people who humiliated you in the first place are dead. How can the people you are hurting now be innocent? Have they ever done you any harm? You are just targeting everyone with one stick. What's the difference between you and those people?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Yuan loosened his grip and was slightly startled. But the next second, he snorted coldly, "You arrest us demons everywhere, from ancient times to the present, without exception. How can these people be innocent? Lin Yanxi, stop speaking for them. I don't want to hear it. I originally didn't want you to recover your memory, but now I have changed my mind. But before that, I need to give you a big gift."
He let go, stepped back, looked at Yan Xi, curled his lips and smiled meaningfully, then walked around him and left without looking back.
After leaving the room, Jin Yuan said to Ye Lin, "You and the others stay here to watch him. I'll go to the lab and deal with those rats."
Ye Lin: “Yes.”
