Chapter 91 Demon Lord 091%
Beams of light pierced through the clouds and the darkness. The rising sun shone brightly, and the surrounding sky also became warm and clear.
The sunrise was indeed beautiful, but Qu Yaoyao did not come here to watch the sunrise with Chao Yuan.
Having just woken up, Qu Yaoyao was half-conscious, staring blankly out the window, following Chao Yuan's gaze. Seeing the sun rising high in the sky, Qu Yaoyao was reminded of Chao Yuan's dazzling, crimson eyes. Coming to her senses, she asked, her face tinged with irritation, "When did you come?"
"Before sunrise." Chao Yuan leaned lazily against the back of his chair.
Seeing that he was completely sober, Qu Yaoyao slapped the table to cheer herself up. She then asked, "What did you write on the note?"
"I was told to arrive before 11am, so why should you be late?"
"Do you know how long I've been waiting for you here?!"
Chao Yuan stared at her face quietly, his guilt and panic aroused despite having done nothing wrong. His dark red crow-feathered robe wrapped him tightly. He slowly reached for the teacup and explained, "Something happened last minute, so I was delayed for a while."
that's all? !
Qu Yaoyao was very angry.
After a century of transformation, tainted by the mundane world, Qu Yaoyao was no longer the ignorant little snow lotus of her youth. She had a temper and a limit to her own behavior. She feigned a fierce glare at Chao Yuan, unaware that sleep marks had formed on her fair, tender face. Her wide, round, clear eyes were not menacing, but rather endearing and lively.
So not long after, Chao Yuan lowered his eyes and smiled.
He already had a kind of alluring good looks, and now he had dressed himself up like a decent gentleman, like an elegant nobleman from the mortal world. His face became even more charming when he smiled.
Qu Yaoyao was dazzled by him, but it was only for a brief moment. She couldn't help but slam the table again. This time, she used a little more force, which affected the injured wrist, and she couldn't help but hiss.
"You're still laughing!"
Qu Yaoyao endured the pain and asked, "Are you deliberately playing tricks on me?"
Chao Yuan stopped smiling because he noticed something was wrong with her wrist. "What's wrong with your hand?"
Qu Yaoyao didn't reply, and even hid her hands in her sleeves. "Don't change the subject. I'm asking you now."
Chao Yuan said calmly, "Lift up your sleeves and let me see."
Qu Yaoyao was so breathless that she felt completely ignored by him.
"Demon Lord Chao Yuan." Qu Yaoyao was really angry. She felt aggrieved and uncomfortable. She asked him harshly, "Don't you think you are boring?"
"I'm very busy, but I don't feel bored."
Chao Yuan finally agreed to her words, but then he raised his eyelashes and stared at her and asked, "Do you want to do it yourself, or should I do it myself?"
Compared to Xie Qingxun, Chao Yuan was more domineering and powerful, and he didn't show much tenderness towards her. Seeing that Qu Yaoyao was determined not to lift her sleeves, he nodded calmly, "It seems that you like me to do it myself."
The man who had been lazily leaning back a moment before actually stood up and walked towards Qu Yaoyao as soon as he finished speaking. Qu Yaoyao lost all her confidence and panicked instantly. She quickly dodged backwards to avoid Chao Yuan, but the space between the table and chairs was so small that she had to dodge into the corner after a few times.
"Let go--" Qu Yaoyao's arm was grabbed by Chao Yuan.
Lifting his sleeve, he saw blood-soaked gauze wrapped around Qu Yaoyao's wrist, hiding the scars beneath. Chao Yuan only touched her lightly, and Qu Yaoyao flinched in pain, quickly turning her face away from him.
"How did it happen?" Chao Yuan's eyes were filled with sadness.
His eyes were a little dark under his long eyelashes. Seeing that Qu Yaoyao ignored him and didn't look at him, he raised his hand, pinched her chin and forced her to turn towards him, and said in a commanding tone: "Speak!"
Qu Yaoyao didn't know how to respond. She didn't want him to know that she'd bled herself to help the Medicine King Sect prepare the antidote. She struggled against Chao Yuan's grip, feigning annoyance. "What I did is none of your business."
She repeated what Chao Yuan had said to her, but her voice was soft and small, "What qualifications do you have to control me?"
She has no right to control him, and he has no right to control her.
Chao Yuan was irritated by her words.
"I'm not qualified?" He pinched her chin a little hard and moved closer. He found that Qu Yaoyao's face, which no longer had traces of sleep, was a little pale, and even her lips had lost their former color.
He asked gloomily, "Who claims to be Xie Qingxun's wife?"
Qu Yaoyao retorted, "You're not Xie Qingxun."
That's not wrong.
"Even if I'm not Xie Qingxun, you can only be mine." Chao Yuan spoke clearly, approaching Qu Yaoyao and speaking word by word: "Don't forget what you promised me before leaving the demon world. What? I let you go back to the Immortal Sect for a few days, and now you want to go back on your word and betray me?"
"Qu Yaoyao." The two of them drew closer. Chao Yuan leaned over her forehead and whispered in her ear, "You can only be mine. If you dare to have second thoughts again, I will not only not let you go, but I will not let the Wanmen Immortal Sect go either."
He would not let go of any of the people she cared about, such as Qu Jingxian, Qu Yushu, and Mo Xuanxiao and other useless disciples.
Qu Yaoyao was already feeling unwell, and after traveling most of the night, Chao Yuan's warnings and warnings had left her trembling uncontrollably. Her trembling was simply out of anger and a lack of strength, but Chao Yuan assumed she'd taken his words to heart and was frightened.
Chao Yuan didn't want Qu Yaoyao to be afraid of him, but he was also afraid she wouldn't. In this conflicting mood, he could only wrap his arms around her trembling body. Unable to bear the sight of her lips so pale, he slowly pressed them against his lips, rubbing and sucking gently, staining them with an ambiguous rosy red.
Qu Yaoyao was unable to cope with her illness and soon lost control of her breathing.
Bang--
While I was drowsy, I suddenly heard a loud bang in my ears.
Qu Yaoyao was startled and subconsciously grabbed Chao Yuan's sleeve, opening her eyes that were about to close. Chao Yuan's face naturally turned unhappy when the peaceful atmosphere he had worked so hard to create was interrupted.
Feeling Qu Yaoyao's tension, he held her in his arms and patted her soothingly, then turned his head to look at the thing that had hit the door and rolled in.
"You scared my wife." Chao Yuan had a blank expression on his face, his red-gold pupils darkening.
The person who rolled in was the tavern owner who had lost an arm. A pair of fiery red fox ears appeared on the head of the kind man, his face was ferocious and he made sharp fox sounds, and three fox tails stood up behind him, with each tail standing on end.
In fact, he was not the owner of the tavern, but a fox demon from the Hehuan Sect who killed the owner and took his place.
"Please forgive me, Demon Lord. It's all Tu Ling's fault."
A fox girl in a voluptuous red dress sauntered out the door, clutching a severed arm. She watched Chao Yuan lick the blood from the corner of his lips, then softly explained, "Tu Ling noticed something was wrong with the shopkeeper right after he arrived. He's a subordinate of the rebellious demon Tu Huan."
Tu Huan was inciting rebellion among the old members of the Myriad Poison Sect, and the fox demon had escaped in advance to prepare a backup plan. Originally, he had intended to capture Huang Ying before Chao Yuan arrived, but Huang Ying didn't show up, and instead, the sect's renowned Fairy Yaolian arrived.
The reason why he was so attentive to Qu Yaoyao was not out of concern, but because he wanted to take the opportunity to attack Qu Yaoyao. However, the magic weapon on Qu Yaoyao's wrist was too powerful. Every time he got close to her, he could feel the oppression coming towards him. He wanted to attack many times but hesitated many times. Until the Demon Lord Chao Yuan appeared, he hid away in shame, and never expected to be caught by Tu Ling.
"Rebel demon?" Qu Yaoyao heard something wrong from the conversation between the two.
After being held in Chao Yuan's arms, Qu Yaoyao also smelled a faint smell of blood from him.
Pushing Chao Yuan away, she looked towards the door in confusion. Tu Ling then discovered that there was someone hidden in his Demon Lord's arms. His face turned cold when he saw Qu Yaoyao's appearance clearly.
"Isn't this Fairy Yaolian?" Tu Ling would not be stupid enough to show hostility towards her in front of Chao Yuan.
She smiled slightly and asked, "Didn't the Demon Lord tell you? On his way to Yingxian City, he was ambushed by the demons of Tuhuan."
The reason why Chao Yuan was late was not because he was deliberately teasing Qu Yaoyao. He explained lightly that "something happened suddenly", but in fact, there was a rebellion in the demon world. Tu Huan and other big demons were so wild that they were used to living without a master. They even tried to kill their master and had no idea of their own weight.
Chi——
As soon as he finished speaking, Tu Ling took out the heart of a fellow fox demon in front of Qu Yaoyao.
The fox demon never believed that Tu Ling could be so cruel until her death. Before she died, her eyes widened, she pointed at her and gritted her teeth, saying, "Traitor, traitor!"
Tu Huan betrayed Fenyuan Palace, while Tu Ling truly betrayed the fox clan.
Tu Ling didn't care about any of this. She just sneered, "My life was given to me by Demon Lord Chao Yuan, so I belong to him. It's my duty to do things for him and help him clear obstacles. How can I be called a traitor?"
It was unclear whether these words were addressed to Chao Yuan or to the fox demon who had already died.
After hearing this, Qu Yaoyao just pursed her lips, but she felt that Tu Ling's words were clearly directed at her.
"The Demon Lord's men." She repeated Tu Ling's words, and couldn't help but think of Chao Yuan's domineering declaration of war against her. She couldn't help but sneer, "The Demon Lord has so many men."
Chao Yuan glanced at her without explaining, but just looked at Tu Ling and ordered: "Go down first."
"Yes." Tu Ling responded coquettishly, and cast a spell to close the damaged double doors, leaving only the bloody corpse on the ground.
After such a commotion, Qu Yaoyao no longer had the mood she had just now. On the contrary, Chao Yuan was still in high spirits. He put his arms around her and touched her from time to time, as if he wanted to continue.
Qu Yaoyao was distracted by his teasing, but she had regained her composure. She pulled Chao Yuan's hand away and suddenly called out to him.
"Hmm?" Chao Yuan leaned closer and brushed her earlobe with his lips.
Before he could continue, he heard Qu Yaoyao calmly ask him, "Did you kill Qu Yaoyao?"
"What?" Chao Yuan didn't react.
Qu Yaoyao then repeated, "Before I entered her body, Qu Yaoyao was killed and strangled to death by a demon. Was that demon you?"
"Chao Yuan, did you kill Qu Yaoyao?"
Chao Yuan's arms around Qu Yaoyao froze, and he stared at her profile with a dark look in his eyes.
"yes."
It went much more smoothly than Qu Yaoyao had imagined. Chao Yuan easily confessed his guilt. He said indifferently, "So what if I killed her?"
No matter what, "I just want to know the truth, why did you kill her?"
Qu Yaoyao guessed so much and even suspected Qu Yushu at first, but she never thought that this person would be Xie Qingxun.
Chao Yuan smiled. Having said that, there was nothing to hide. He let go of Qu Yaoyao and stood up, spewing out the truth in a harsh and almost cruel manner, "Why did you kill her?"
“There aren’t so many whys.”
"I don't want to marry her, is this reason enough?"
Countless lives had died at Chao Yuan's hands, and not every one of them needed a reason. Seeing Qu Yaoyao still looking at him, he casually found a few reasons he didn't like: "She is Pei Ziyi's pawn. Marrying her would be an insult to me."
"Why would I marry such a domineering and foolish woman and bring her back to trouble myself? Killing her is the easiest and most convenient solution."
In reality, his ill will towards Qu Yaoyao was already obvious. It was like the amulet the original owner had carefully stored, believing it was written by the Qingxi Immortal Venerable to help her dispel evil spirits. In reality, as long as she wore it, she would be constantly harassed and tormented by evil spirits, and using it would only lead to her death.
If the original owner hadn't been so concerned about this talisman and hadn't been reluctant to use it, he wouldn't have strangled the man to death himself.
The original owner, Qu Yaoyao, did nothing wrong. Her only mistake was probably falling in love with this immortal who was disguised as a demon, and she was thinking about marrying him.
What she thought was joy and happiness was worthless in the eyes of the person she loved, and even became the sharp blade that led to her death.
The original owner's ending made Qu Yaoyao think of her own ending that she saw in her dream. Xiao Xuelian was abandoned by him on the altar full of Dharma light because she liked and trusted him too much, and disappeared alone.
The Fire Lotus Karma Fire was so overbearing and painful when it burned. Qu Yaoyao could feel the pain of burning the soul even through her dreams, and she felt uncomfortable every time she thought about it.
Chao Yuan, with his back to her, was also immersed in his own memories. He did not think Qu Yaoyao had the right to question her why she killed the real Qu Yaoyao. It was precisely because the real Qu Yaoyao died that she had the opportunity to attach herself to her body and be reborn, entangled with him endlessly.
"It doesn't really make any difference." Chao Yuan sneered, "In the end, didn't you become a pawn used by Qu Yingsi to deal with me?"
If she hadn't worn Qu Yingsi's bracelet, if she hadn't insisted on listening to Chong'an and secretly followed him to Zhuzhen Tower, leaving behind evidence of his fall from grace and the extermination of his family, he would still be the Immortal Master Qingxi, and Qu Yaoyao would still be his Immortal Master wife.
But everything was already destined. Even though he had dealt with the troublesome original owner in advance, he was ultimately unable to reverse the outcome.
Chao Yuan didn't want to recall the past, so he finally mentioned the purpose of summoning Qu Yaoyao out this time, "Did you bring the Kunlun Stone with you?"
The author has something to say: Sacrifices must be made. We can't let the hero's body sleep forever under the Kunlun Mountain. He must be more handsome than Chao Yuan!
There should be only one big plot left in this volume, Fly rubbing his hands.
