Chapter 182 The Ungrateful Prince
As Qing Yi recalled the scene at that time and narrated it, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Why did I go crazy at that time and do so many impulsive things?
"Xiao Ye, where are you going?" Qing Yi asked hurriedly when he saw Ye Qingyu suddenly stand up.
"Go see my father." Ye Qingyu said slowly with a complicated expression.
He naturally felt resentful towards his father. How could a father drug his son? This made him feel very uncomfortable. However, when he heard that the Demon Lord had injured his father, he couldn't help but feel distressed. After all, that was his father.
"Ah? Then I'll go too." Qing Yi said hurriedly when he heard it. He felt that since he had caused trouble, he had to go with them.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyu stopped, turned around, and looked straight at Qingyi, as if thinking about something.
"Ah, Xiaoye, please don't misunderstand me! I'm not going with you to pick another fight with him. If... if you need me to apologize to him, I will apologize to him, okay? But I'm really not afraid of him. It's all because he's your father. If it were someone else, I..."
"What?" Ye Qingyu stopped and looked at Qingyi with a hint of inquiry. He knew that his father had a bad temper, and Qingyi must have suffered a lot this time. Otherwise, why would he be so impulsive as to attack his father when he knew he couldn't beat him? The Qingyi he knew was not the kind of person who would overestimate his own abilities and seek to suffer losses.
"I... I... forget it. The worst that can happen is that I kneel down and apologize to him." Qing Yi hung his head, his voice getting smaller and smaller. Although he was reluctant, he really didn't want to put Xiao Ye in the middle. After all, he was Xiao Ye's biological father.
"Let's go, I'm here." Ye Qingyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a soothing smile, then turned around and walked out.
Qing Yi didn't expect that Xiao Ye didn't blame him at all, and even smiled at him. He stood there in a daze, and Qing Qing couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she gently touched him and urged him in a low voice: "Hurry up! What are you thinking about?" Qing Yi came to his senses and quickly chased after him.
Let’s talk about the other side.
Mu Bai helped the King of the Northwest back to his chambers. The Martial Saint, naturally distressed by his apprentice, immediately employed his unique skills to heal him. His hands moved swiftly, his Qi surging through his body, and gentle yet powerful forces continuously flowed into the King of the Northwest.
When the Northwest King's face gradually turned rosy and his breathing became steady, the Martial Saint stopped what he was doing and asked about the cause of the incident.
"Chu Lang, what's going on?" Martial Saint's usually calm voice now took on a harshness. Whatever the reason, Chu Lang couldn't bring himself to kill Qing Yi. Not to mention that he was the grandson of the Demon Lord and a disciple of the Demon Cult leader, Mo Qitian, but just because he had saved Qing Yu's life, he shouldn't have killed him. Isn't that just repaying kindness with enmity? It was unacceptable, both emotionally and logically.
"Master..." The King of the Northwest had calmed down and regretted his actions. Qing Yi's words had infuriated him so much that he had lost his composure, his rage clouding his mind, leading him to act so foolishly. When his master asked him the reason, he felt as if his throat was clogged. He didn't know how to speak, his lips trembling slightly as he hesitated.
The Martial Saint did not say anything. He was waiting for his little disciple to explain what the reason was.
The King of the Northwest was silent for a long time. Not daring to disobey his master's orders, he recounted what had happened.
The people present, Mu Bai, Mu Yun, Mu Xin and other personal guards of the King of the Northwest, only learned what had happened at this time.
Mu Xin lowered his head secretly, unable to help but sigh inwardly: How could they drug the young prince? Alas! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. Then he thought again, it seemed that he could not escape the blame. After all, he also had a "credit" for recruiting that unreliable guy Li Qingting. This charlatan was really more of a hindrance than a help.
"Chu Lang, what you did was really inappropriate." Wu Sheng frowned and looked at his little closed disciple. Chu Lang was born with a domineering temper. After so many years, Wu Sheng thought that Chu Lang would be calmer and more stable as he grew older and gained more experience. Unexpectedly, he was still so irritable and did things without considering the consequences!
"Master, I know I was wrong and shouldn't have attacked that kid. But I have also tried to persuade him many times before. Today, that kid really went too far. He broke into my backyard, injured my guards, and killed my maid! I was so angry that I couldn't help it and lost my composure." The King of the Northwest also felt ashamed. Not to mention that he was hit by a hidden weapon by Qingyi, the matter between the king and the kid has now spread. How shameful!
"Chu Lang, I am not in a position to say much about your family affairs, but it was indeed wrong for you to kill Qing Yi. If we hadn't arrived, how could that kid be alive?" said the Martial Saint.
"Master, I was furious and didn't intend to fight him," the King of the Northwest explained. "At the time, I was filled with rage and only wanted to teach that ignorant brat a lesson."
"Well, in that case, listen to what I say. Go and apologize to the Demon Lord. Qing Yi is his disciple's grandson, so he must be heartbroken." The Martial Saint tried to calm the situation.
"Yes, Master." Northwest King Chu Lang, though a prince of the Great Chu, held an immeasurably noble status and possessed a fiery temper, was known for his unwavering resolve, commanding the respect of his subordinates. However, at this moment, his master, the Martial Saint, had spoken, and even with all his reluctance, he was forced to obey. His respectful and submissive demeanor was a stark contrast to his usual awe-inspiring demeanor.
Just as Mu Bai helped the King of the Northwest out of bed and was about to act according to his master's instructions, he heard footsteps outside and someone broke in without reporting.
"Chu Lang, you are just like your name, a real white-eyed wolf! An ungrateful bastard! How dare you attack my disciple? Don't you even see who I am, his master?" Before seeing the person, I heard his voice first. The voice was as loud as a bell and filled with tremendous anger. It turned out that the Demon Lord had arrived.
After the Demon Lord transferred his true energy to Qing Yi, he also asked about the cause of the incident. Qing Yi had selfish motives and did not mention that he broke into the backyard and injured others. He only told the Demon Lord that the King of the Northwest prevented him and Ye Qingyu from being together. In order to break them up, the King of the Northwest actually drugged Ye Qingyu and forced her to consummate the marriage with a maid. He was so angry that he fought with the King of the Northwest.
Seeing that his disciple was safe, the Demon Lord accumulated a lot of anger, turned around and went alone to settle the score with the King of the Northwest.
