Xuan Fengqian stared blankly at the swarm of demonesses rushing into the room, pointed to the brightly colored brocade robes on the trays in their hands, and asked in confusion, "What are you all doing?"
The leading demoness smiled broadly and said softly, "You are truly blessed, young lady. All of this was prepared for you by the Demon Lord."
"Funeral shroud?" Xuan Fengqian was startled and instinctively took two steps back.
The leading demoness smiled awkwardly, not without envy, and said, "Miss, you're joking. This isn't a shroud at all; it's clearly a magnificent brocade robe made of the Cloud Brocade of the Heavens."
"Those who offer unsolicited favors are either treacherous or thieves."
Xuan Fengqian muttered to himself, increasingly unable to understand Leng Ye.
If you slap someone and then give them a sweet treat, who would appreciate it?
Upon hearing this, the leading demoness fell silent and dared not speak again.
Xuan Fengqian can afford to offend Leng Ye, but she can't.
If you say the wrong thing, you'll be in big trouble.
Therefore, after the demonesses put down their trays, she hurriedly led them away.
Hidden outside the window, Di Jun saw that only Xuan Fengqian was left inside, and slipped in through the window like a fish.
He glanced at the piles of ornate brocade robes filling the room and said indignantly, "Outrageous! That beast Leng Ye forced Ning'er into marriage but refuses to treat her well. And after only a few days, he's already philandering again!"
“What’s the point of yelling at me? If you want to stand up for Xuan Qianning, you should go and confront him face to face.”
Xuan Feng rubbed his throbbing head impatiently.
"I will find him and get to the bottom of this."
Although Di Jun said this, he was a little scared inside.
No matter what, Jiuyou is Lengye's territory.
If he goes too far, Leng Ye might just throw him out of the Nine Netherworlds without any regard for feelings.
At that time, where will he put his dignity as the Demon Emperor?
Thinking this through, he withdrew his body from the doorway and instead looked at Xuan Fengqian, who was leaning against the food table, with a smile, "Little sister, does your injury still hurt?"
"Who's your sister? Don't try to claim any connection."
"Since you are Ning'er's sister, you are also my sister. From now on, if anyone dares to bully you, I will definitely seek justice for you." Di Jun patted his chest and said righteously.
Xuan Feng narrowed his long, narrow eyes and said with a hint of puzzlement, "Has no one ever told you that I also poisoned the white moonlight you loved but couldn't have?"
Di Jun was surprised that Xuan Fengqian would ask so directly, so he readily agreed, "I've heard a little about it."
"Don't you want to avenge her?"
"You brat, who do you take me for? It's not my place to interfere in the conflicts between you sisters."
"Is that so?" Xuan Fengqian did not believe what Di Jun said.
She always felt that Di Jun's feelings for Xuan Qian Ning weren't as genuine as he claimed.
As for why he always pretends to be deeply in love but short-lived, that remains a mystery.
Emperor Jun was clearly unwilling to discuss the matter further, and subtly changed the subject, saying, "I heard your conversation with Leng Ye."
"Why does a dignified Demon Emperor always like to do such petty and underhanded things?"
"Don't misunderstand, this is the first time I've ever eavesdropped." Emperor Jun coughed twice, looking slightly embarrassed.
Seeing that Xuan Fengqian ignored him, he simply moved closer to her and asked with concern, "Are you really alright?"
"fine."
"If I understand correctly, that brat Leng Ye must have had someone bully you, but you managed to escape unscathed, right?"
