Gong Yujia thought of the Demon Lord's entrustment to her, and was immediately filled with confidence. For the Demon Lord's sake, she would definitely obtain the military power in Li Muge's army.
Originally, Gong Yujia thought that Li Muge would not give up so easily, and she was prepared for a life-or-death situation.
Unexpectedly, Li Muge readily gave her the military tally.
"Palace guard, you've worked hard."
"It's no trouble at all, Your Majesty. The Demon Lord is doing this because Your Majesty is afraid of overworking you, so he sent his subordinates to share Your Majesty's burdens."
“Yes, that’s for sure.” Li Muge’s face was practically beaming with joy.
"By the way, Palace Guard, please tell the Demon Lord that now that she has married into our Li family, she should abide by some rules."
“In a few days, I will be taking a concubine. As the principal husband, the Demon Lord must be present.”
"What?" Gong Yujia tilted her head, thinking she had misheard.
"Guardian, you must be mistaken, or I must have misheard you."
"I heard you right, Palace Guard. You're hard of hearing. Should we go and check? This Protector is going to take a concubine."
"How can you do this? What about the Demon Lord?" Gong Yujia instinctively spoke up for the Demon Lord.
But then she thought, if Li Muge were to marry another concubine, the Demon Lord would surely despise Li Muge even more.
The news that Li Muge wanted to take a concubine quickly reached Yun Qi's ears.
For a man, this action was tantamount to trampling on Yun Qi's dignity.
Jingfeng gritted his teeth: "Demon Lord, why don't we send troops to attack Li Muge, let her know how powerful you are, and restore your authority as husband?"
"Husband what? I am not her husband." Yun Qiqi's face turned dark.
Given the Demon Lord's personality, Jingfeng was certain that Li Muge would rather be dead than live if he dared to humiliate him like this.
Unexpectedly, Yun Qi suddenly burst out laughing, but the teacup he had taken out shattered instantly.
Jingfeng immediately knelt down on the ground, not daring to even raise his head.
"Alright, since Li Muge wants to take a concubine, how can I not join in this fun?"
"You can also collect some monetary gifts while you're at it."
Yun Qi got up, took out the abacus, and started typing away.
Jingfeng: "..."
He suddenly felt that the Demon Lord and the Dharma Protector would make a good couple.
After all, these two people always have unconventional ideas that are hard for others to understand.
The concubine that Li Muge planned to take was a slave from the Spirit Clan named Canglan.
Most of the Eldar have pale blue, gem-like pupils.
Li Muge was captivated by Cang Lan at first sight.
However, this was not her main purpose in bringing Canglan into the family, since Yun Qi wanted to weaken her military power.
Then she would have to marry both the unattainable Demon Lord and a lowly Spirit Clan member to the same woman.
By then, Yun Qi's reputation as a coward will likely resound throughout the Three Realms.
Anyway.
It doesn't matter who she marries, as long as Yun Qi is unhappy, Li Muge will be happy.
Li Muge originally thought that Yun Qi definitely wouldn't come.
Unexpectedly, Yun Qi arrived and shamelessly stood at the door collecting gifts.
Those who came and gave less money would also be subjected to Yun Qi's death stare.
The guests were so frightened that they quickly took out all their valuables.
Yun Qi was finally satisfied.
Li Mu took a glass of wine and saw Yun Qi doing arithmetic while using magic to pack the spirit stones and treasures into a box and close it.
Her smile froze on her face.
"Demon Lord, today is my joyous day, and also a day for you, my rightful husband, to share in my happiness."
"What use are these worldly things to you? Let me take them away and keep them safe. Don't let these worldly things tarnish your ethereal, otherworldly aura."
Li Muge, intending to interrupt Yun Qi's spell, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to move the spirit stones to his side.
Damn it.
Yun Qi, that porcelain rooster, really has a clever idea; she even provided the spirit stones for the banquet.
If we can't recoup our losses from gift money, where can we get them back?
“Li Muge, I am the legitimate husband, so these gifts should rightfully be under my management.”
Yun Qi adapted very well to the role.
They even planned to take over Li Muge's family business.
Li Muge gave a forced smile and hugged the box containing the monetary gifts tightly.
"No need to trouble the Demon Lord, our Li family has no such rule, so this gift money should be kept by your subject."
"What? No way." Yun Qi also hugged the box in Li Muge's hand: "Li Muge, you spend money so lavishly, these spirit stones will definitely be gone in no time."
"As your rightful husband, I cannot stand by and watch you go astray. Moreover, your ancestors would be very happy to have me help you manage the household."
"Let go..." Li Muge almost cursed. Yun Qi was so stingy, the amount of the gift money would naturally be considerable once it reached him.
The problem is, I can't pry it out.
She wants to build a secluded paradise, a city of extreme evil, and of course, she needs spirit stones to fill her coffers.
"Demon Lord, let go, this belongs to your subject."
"Have you no shame, Yun Qi?" Li Muge was so angry with the Demon Lord that she started calling him by his full name.
Yun Qi wasn't annoyed, and still smiled gently: "Good girl, Mu Ge, listen to me. You may be ignorant, but I must be."
Those around them, seeing Li Muge and Yun Qi arguing over a box, assumed it was something important.
When they learned it was just a gift of money.
Some of the male demonic cultivators present couldn't stand it anymore.
"Demon Queen, just give the gift money to the Demon Lord. Today is your turn... Sigh..."
The man shook his head, too embarrassed to finish his sentence.
One of the demonic cultivators beside him couldn't hold back any longer and spoke out in defense of the Demon Lord.
"Your Majesty, I would like to speak the truth."
