Chapter 85 Demon Lord 085%
This is Qu Yaoyao's third day in Fenyuan Palace.
She and Mo Xuanxiao had agreed that they must meet within two hours and communicate promptly if there were any problems. On the first day, Qu Yaoyao was trapped in the dungeon and nearly died. On the second day, she was completely controlled by Chao Yuan and had no time to breathe. Now it was the third day, and she didn't know what the situation was like on Mo Xuanxiao's side.
She couldn't remember how she passed out last night. When she woke up, she was lying in the pool, her clothes on, and the plum blossom marks on her body had faded. Seeing Chao Yuan wasn't in the room, she heard screams in the hall and worried that something had happened to Qu Jingxian. She had come all the way to look for him, but she didn't expect to see this scene.
Sound Mirror...
Qu Yaoyao didn't know that the sound transmission mirror had been crushed by Chao Yuan. Seeing that her Qiankun bag was still tied around her waist, she lowered her head to search for it.
She took a few steps back, intending to leave quietly, but she bumped into something after three steps. A slightly hot breath was whispered in her ears, and Qu Yaoyao's back was pressed against someone's arms, with her waist being held.
"Look what I caught." A cool and familiar voice came from above my head.
Chao Yuan leaned forward, pressed his face against Qu Yaoyao's, and, closing his arms around her, he muttered a few words playfully, "Little spy, what are you planning to report to your sect?"
"I'm not..." Qu Yaoyao turned around and wanted to refute.
She had forgotten how close she was to Chao Yuan, nearly kissing him from the side. Gazing at the handsome face magnified before her, Qu Yaoyao quickly tilted her head back. The sight of him brought back memories of last night.
I'm very angry and my chest feels stuffy.
Chao Yuan noticed Qu Yaoyao's evasive movements and sneered, "You are not what?"
"Aren't you going to use the sound transmission mirror to contact Mo Xuanxiao?"
"Let me guess, do you want him to come and save you, or do you want to tell him that there's a nine-tailed fox in the Demon Palace so he can be on guard?" Or maybe both.
Qu Yaoyao's thoughts were guessed, and she realized that Chao Yuan and the Immortal Sect were truly hostile camps, and it was not just a small fight.
"Qu Yaoyao." Chao Yuan didn't mind giving this slow-witted little Xuelian a good warning. "Since you've made a deal with me, you belong to me. If you dare to betray me or Fenyuan Palace again, I won't forgive you."
His tone was somewhat fierce, and he wasn't joking with her. Gazing into his cold, dark eyes, Qu Yaoyao felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She wanted to say that she wouldn't do anything to hurt him again, but then she thought of his position in the demon world, and she couldn't bear to watch them slaughter innocent immortals.
"They are all bad people." Qu Yaoyao tried to persuade him.
"That demon fox just now, she once occupied the mountains and became the king of the lower realm, harming the people and even eating many people. How could you help her to do evil and improve her cultivation? If you do this, what will happen if she goes out to harm people again? Who can subdue her?"
Chao Yuan stared at her expressionlessly, "Are you trying to teach me a lesson?"
"I just don't want these demons to go out and harm people."
Chao Yuan sneered, "You have too many things to think about. Do you think I should obey your orders?"
"Qu Yaoyao, you have no right to teach me a lesson, and it is not your turn to interfere in what I want to do."
Qu Yaoyao was stung by his cold attitude, and she couldn't understand why he had to speak to her in such a sarcastic tone. She pushed the man away in anger, and Qu Yaoyao's stubbornness came out, and she also lost her temper, "I have no right to control you, and then you have no right to control me."
"Since you insist on helping these ferocious demons to harm people, then I will definitely oppose you. If you let one go, I will kill one. If I can't kill them all, I will fight them to the death."
"You dare." Chao Yuan's face turned completely cold.
Qu Yaoyao turned away from him, her voice muffled but clear, "I dare."
Chao Yuan's anger only intensified, his own fury nearly spiraling out of control. Qu Yaoyao's outburst not only ached in his chest, but also in his head. Pressing his forehead with a hand, he threatened with a sullen expression, "If you dare to mess with me, I wouldn't mind trying out all the moves I didn't use yesterday on you."
Qu Yaoyao's face turned pale, and she couldn't help but think of the room full of red curtains and Chao Yuan's ruthless warning in her ear.
Her breathing became unsteady, and Qu Yaoyao's nose felt sore, making her even angrier. "If you have the guts, just strip me naked and throw me out. If you're shameless, I'll be shameless too."
What a mess.
Chao Yuan frowned and was about to reach out to grab the person back to his side when he heard light footsteps not far away. A woman asked coquettishly, "Is the Demon Lord in there?"
It’s Tuling.
Chao Yuan and Qu Yaoyao exchanged a glance, and Chao Yuan spoke first, "Go back. If you run around again, I'll tie you up."
Qu Yaoyao had never felt so angry and wronged before, and she didn't know why her anger had grown stronger. Her mind went blank and she raised her hand to hit Chao Yuan, but Chao Yuan grabbed her wrist.
He raised his other hand, but it was also quickly grabbed. He struggled but couldn't get free.
At this time, Tu Ling had already turned to the gate. From a distance, she saw the Demon Lord standing with his back to her and called out in surprise, "Demon Lord."
Chao Yuan was tall, wearing a gorgeous robe with wide sleeves. He held Qu Yaoyao's wrist like a small animal, and from behind, her body was completely hidden. Without looking at Qu Yaoyao again, he slightly tilted his head and said in a cold tone, "What's the matter?"
Tu Ling took two more steps forward and vaguely felt that Chao Yuan's posture was a little strange.
Being a clever fox, she quickly stopped and delicately saluted again, "Tu Ling has come here specifically to thank the Demon Lord for his cultivation. Although I was born in the Hehuan Sect, the Demon Lord has now promised me the position of leader of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect. From now on, I will be the Demon Lord's servant and will obey his orders."
What a man of the Demon Lord he is, he obeys the Demon Lord's orders so well.
If Qu Yaoyao hadn't known that Tu Ling hadn't heard their conversation beforehand, she would have thought that Tu Ling had done it on purpose. Chao Yuan had just yelled at her for being disobedient and ignorant of the rules, and Tu Ling had rushed over to show his loyalty and fight for his allegiance.
Looking up at Chao Yuan's face, Qu Yaoyao found that his expression was calm and unchanged. After noticing the look in Qu Yaoyao's eyes, he raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Very good."
The man had red lips and fair skin, and a pair of dazzling red-gold eyes. He stared at Qu Yaoyao and said to Tu Ling, "I like people who are sensible and understanding."
Someone needs to learn more.
Qu Yaoyao's eyes were sparkling with anger, as if filled with stars, and her face was lively and adorable. Before Chao Yuan could take a closer look, he saw Qu Yaoyao lower her head and rush headfirst into his arms at lightning speed.
She was really furious. A direct collision wasn't enough. She used the momentum to jump up and hit Chao Yuan in the heart. Chao Yuan was completely unprepared for her. The collision made him lose his strength and stumble back in pain.
"Demon Lord!" Tu Ling had long guessed that there was someone standing in front of him.
Seeing someone bump into the Demon Lord and turn around and run away, she hurried forward to support him and raised her hand to grab the person back.
"Let her be." Chao Yuan raised his sleeve to dispel her attack and bowed slightly.
Qu Yaoyao really knows how to hit him. She would hit him in the heart instead of anywhere else, hitting his vitals directly every time without leaving him any chance of survival, for fear that he would feel better.
"Who was that woman just now?" Looking at Qu Yaoyao's back as she ran away, Tu Ling narrowed his fox eyes, feeling that she sounded familiar.
Chao Yuan quickly regained his composure, raising his hand to brush off the sleeve that Tu Ling had touched. He said casually, "It's just a pet I raised. It's used to being wild and doesn't accept being disciplined."
Comparing women to pets is not new in the demon world. What is new is that Tu Ling did not expect that Demon Lord Chao Yuan would keep a woman by his side, and his implicit indulgence of this woman in his words and deeds clearly hinted to her not to have any ideas about her.
Tu Ling suppressed his thoughts, lowered his face, and asked, "Does the Demon Lord have anything to tell Tu Ling?"
"Of course there is."
Chao Yuan appointed Tu Ling as the leader of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect. It seemed like a casual gesture, but it actually had a deeper meaning. He wanted her to balance the forces of the various sects in the demon world. These sect leaders and powerful demons seemed obedient in front of him, but in fact, they all had ambitions and were constantly making small moves in secret.
Tu Ling's appearance is both a reminder and a threat to them. As for how to make the decision, it depends on how smart they are.
“…”
As a little snow lotus, Qu Yaoyao was so soft and had no temper at first, but later Xie Qingxun gradually cultivated her temper.
Over the past hundred years, after Xie Qingxun disappeared, her emotions had also become dull. It had been a long time since she had experienced extreme sadness or joy, let alone anger. She felt that her anger today was more than that of a hundred years. After running back to the bedroom, she began to feel dizzy and her legs were weak and she could hardly stand.
Looking at the red curtains fluttering in the room, Qu Yaoyao pulled them twice but failed, so she used a hand gesture to cut them all off, and the hall instantly became bright and spacious.
After doing all this, she slowly moved to the edge of the pool with the help of the objects around her. When her whole body was immersed in the water and the cold touch swayed against her face, she realized belatedly what she had done wrong.
When Chao Yuan comes back, he will probably get angry with her again.
Fatigue came over her and Qu Yaoyao closed her eyes tiredly. She no longer had the energy to care about how Chao Yuan would treat her when he came back.
Contrary to what Qu Yaoyao had expected, when Chao Yuan came back and saw the red tents scattered all over the floor, he was just slightly stunned and then laughed, without any major emotional fluctuations.
In the blink of an eye, all the red curtains were back in place. He lifted the layers of gauze curtains and glanced at the cold pool, then put several clumps of snow coral into the incense burner.
...will run out soon.
Holding the box half-closed, Chao Yuan gently tapped the tabletop with his fingers before walking to the screen and removing his robe. Qu Yaoyao was still asleep, so she didn't see Chao Yuan strip off his clothes. His chest was covered in blood, a wound just as deadly as it had been a hundred years before.
His body was no longer the same as before, but the damage he had sustained was to his soul, and it would remain the same no matter how many more bodies he took.
The fragrance of snow coral in the room grew stronger. Chao Yuan breathed in the fresh air and changed into clean clothes, still a dazzling fiery red, which was the color he really liked.
When Qu Yaoyao woke up, Chao Yuan had been sitting by the pool for a long time.
He was half immersed in the water, his red dress swaying in the water like a flower, and he himself was quiet like a beautiful doll. Until he saw the girl in the water open her eyes, he slowly shifted his gaze with trembling eyelashes and looked towards the closed window.
"Why are you here?" After recovering some energy from the water, Qu Yaoyao rubbed her head to recall what had happened before.
Looking at the red gauze curtains that were floating in the air again, she puffed her cheeks and imitated his sarcastic tone, "Xie Qingxun, where is that little vixen beside you?"
"Since she pleases you so much, why do you keep pestering me and making me more annoying?"
Chao Yuan's eyelashes fluttered again. His complexion had always been pale, but it had to be said that it looked most exquisite in red. His raven hair was half tied up with a golden crown and phoenix hairpin, the remaining hair hanging down behind him, swaying slightly as he turned.
"Don't call me Xie Qingxun anymore." Chao Yuan looked at her.
This body was born a demon, and there was no need to suppress demonic energy, so his eyes always appeared red gold. He kept repeating the words he had said several times before: "I am not him."
Xie Qingxun is already dead. Once dead, he is dead. His soul has been scattered. He has never truly lived.
Qu Yaoyao probably understood this as well, and her eyes dimmed slightly at Chao Yuan's words. "Then who are you?"
She looked at him stubbornly, "Should I call you Chao Yuan Demon Lord, or the legendary Emperor Phoenix?"
Chao Yuan was silent for a moment, then said sarcastically, "I'm not even close to being the true Chao Yuan Demon Lord. As for Emperor Feng..."
Thinking of some bad memories, he just smiled and said nothing more, only said lightly: "When Kunlun Mountain restarts, you will naturally see the real me."
A complete him.
Qu Yaoyao felt heavy-hearted and not at all happy. Since the Kunlun Sacred Mountain was mentioned, she asked, "If you have the Kunlun Stone, can you unlock the Kunlun Sacred Mountain?"
The Prince of the Ancient Phoenix Clan is sealed in the Kunlun Sacred Mountain. The Kunlun Stone can open the Kunlun Sacred Mountain. Chao Yuan and Xie Qingxun are both Emperor Phoenixes, which explains why he is obsessed with the Kunlun Stone.
But what role does Chong'an play in this? He is also a divine phoenix.
After sorting out some of the relationships, Qu Yaoyao asked, "When are you going to let me go back and get the Kunlun Stone?"
"What's the rush?" Chao Yuan glanced at her, playing with a small black porcelain bottle in his hand, his face slightly lowered to hide the color in his eyes, "The time is not right yet."
"What are you waiting for?" Qu Yaoyao was of course anxious. "Even if you don't let me go, at least let me see Qu Jingxian first to make sure she's okay."
As he was speaking, someone outside the door hurriedly reported, "Demon Lord, a cultivator has broken into the Demon Palace, claiming to be Xuan Yao Tianzun."
Mo Xuanxiao couldn't wait and came here.
Chao Yuan hummed, his expression unchanged, muttering to himself, "I think it's about time."
"come over."
Pulling the corners of his lips, Chao Yuan clenched the black porcelain bottle in his hand and waved to Qu Yaoyao, with five parts gentleness and five parts ghostly, "Aren't you in a hurry to leave? Come here, I'll tell you a few words, and then I'll let you go."
You can let her go, but you can't let her go easily.
The author has something to say: Question: Who is more powerful in a quarrel between Chao Yuan and Yaoyao.
