Chapter 25 The Demeanor of an Empress



"Protect the Dharma!" Little Peony rushed over, but her hand was immediately frostbitten as soon as it touched Li Muge's body.

"So cold." Little Peony's pupils constricted: "You bad old man, what did you do to my protector? Let go of my protector!"

Little Peony formed hand seals, and several green vines appeared from her hands, attempting to bind Phoenix King.

Phoenix King snorted, raised his sleeve and waved, and Little Peony's entire body fell directly to the ground, her palm scraped.

"Little Peony." Li Muge's pupils gradually turned blood red. He suppressed the Heart Gu and swung his sword at the Phoenix King.

The phoenix rises from the ashes by fire.

But Li Muge was different. She relinquished her magic power and stepped into the River of Oblivion, where her soul was eroded by countless resentful spirits.

Only by putting yourself in a desperate situation can you survive.

"You wretched creature." The Phoenix King flicked his black sleeve and used his magic to confront her.

Countless painful memories flashed before Li Muge's eyes, and she was filled with murderous intent. Even if it meant death, she wanted to make those who had hurt her pay with their lives.

Just then, Yun Qi suddenly hugged Li Muge, shielding her from the Phoenix King's attack.

Li Muge couldn't help but feel a pang of fear: "Yun Qi, what are you doing? Are you an idiot?"

Strangely, as long as Yun Qi was by her side, the pain from the Heart-Controlling Gu would lessen.

"Don't cry, my wife. My mother said that you shouldn't let your wife cry."

Yun Qi raised his hand, trying to make the tears in Li Muge's eyes disappear.

"Yes, I know. Yun Qi, to be honest, I really didn't expect that someone as wicked as you would have such a good mother."

"As expected, those with too high an IQ always have flaws."

Little Peony pursed her lips, feeling that her protector wasn't praising the Demon Lord.

Li Muge hooked her finger, her eyes flashing with malice: "Phoenix King, do you think you can control this protector with just a mere spirit pearl?"

With that, he flicked his sleeve and threw Su Qingyou, who had already lost an arm, back at him: "This protector has already died once. You can try to destroy the spirit pearl and see if I will die."

"Phoenix King, surely you know what the phrase 'rebirth from the ashes' means?"

"Qing'er." The Phoenix King cast a spell to protect Su Qing's heart meridian, his brows furrowing tightly. He had to take Su Qing back to heal her injuries.

It's too late; my life might be in danger.

Su Xun lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought, but as he was about to leave the Demon Realm, he couldn't help but turn back.

"Mu Ge, you knew all along that the Heart Gu wouldn't be in any danger to your life, right?"

"So what if I know?" Li Muge's eyes were complicated. She had feelings for this third brother, but they were on different sides.

They were destined to be enemies.

"Mu Ge, if you continue like this..."

"Third Brother, please stop talking. I've already become a demon, there's no turning back."

Su Xun's androgynous appearance paused slightly, and after a long silence, he suddenly turned around and raised the corners of his lips.

"No, Mu Ge, you did nothing wrong. Third Brother just wants you to live a happy life."

Just as Su Xun was about to leave.

The King of Yecheng, accompanied by several guards, immediately surrounded Su Xun.

“Guardian, the Demon Realm has a rule that people from the Immortal Realm cannot enter our Demon Realm. Have you forgotten that?”

When the King of Ye saw that Li Muge seemed to be injured, and that the Demon Lord was now injured and mentally impaired, it would be dangerous if Li Muge were injured at this time.

So this vast demon realm.

The position of Demon Lord is surely within the grasp of the King of Yecheng.

Li Muge's voice suddenly turned cold: "King of Yecheng, who do you think you are, daring to interfere in my affairs?"

King of Yecheng: "Su Xun is from the Heavenly Realm. Even if he has a good relationship with you, Protector, he cannot leave the Demon Realm so easily today."

Li Muge almost sneered out loud. With a flick of his wrist, he unconsciously grabbed the King of Yecheng by the neck. With just a little force, the King of Yecheng's neck snapped with a "crack" and hung limply.

"This protector despises those who are ignorant and clueless." With just a glance from Li Muge, the subordinates who had come with the King of Ye City all sheathed their swords and knelt on the ground, trembling.

"No, protector, spare our lives! We were forced by the King of Yecheng and had no other choice."

“Yes, Guardian, spare our lives!” another guard said, not daring to look Li Muge in the eye as they begged for mercy.

Su Xun glanced at the unseeing corpse of the King of Yecheng, moved his lips, but left without saying anything.

Upon returning to the Demon Palace.

The Demon Doctor had just finished treating Yun Qi.

"Greetings, Demon Queen."

"It's alright, no need for so much formality. How is it? Is the Demon Lord alright?" Li Muge asked impatiently.

The Demon Physician bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, the Demon Lord is in good health."

"It's nothing serious. It's true what they say, a menace can live forever. He can't even die from this." Li Muge muttered to himself.

The Demon Doctor thought he had misheard.

Li Muge pondered that since Yun Qi was in a daze, she must find a way to annihilate his soul.

I was wrong in my past life; I was wrong for not being ruthless enough.

We shouldn't have given Yun Qi a chance to breathe.

Originally, after being reborn, she planned to cherish her life and not rebel, but who knew that Yun Qi would be so wicked, constantly trying to trick her.

She didn't strike first.

She was still waiting for this guy to react and deal with her.

Jingfeng brought in the medicine and saw the Demon Lord lying lifelessly on the bed. He felt like killing Li Muge.

Of course, Li Muge naturally sensed this killing intent.

But she didn't argue with the strong wind.

Alas, it's all because of love. Although she is now the Demon Queen and can be considered the Empress, Jingfeng has been by Yun Qi's side for so many years.

To be honest, Li Muge was a little guilty about being a mistress for the first time, even though she was also forced to marry Yun Qi.

Li Muge boldly scrutinized Jin Feng's face. What a fine young man! How could he have fallen for someone as ruthless as Yun Qi?

Jingfeng put down the medicine and saw that Li Muge was still staring at him, so he immediately got angry.

His opening remarks were sarcastic: "Guardian, you're really quite imposing. The Demon Lord was injured and his life hangs in the balance because of you, and you can still think about other things. Don't you even have a basic conscience?"

"Look, you're jealous." Li Muge conjured up an apple and took a bite: "Guardian Jingfeng, this protector knows you care about the Demon Lord."

"But didn't the Demon Doctor say that he can't die? And everyone in the Three Realms already knows that I, the Protector, have no conscience."

Li Muge told herself that she must have the demeanor of an empress.

Jingfeng's face darkened even more. How come he had never noticed before that Li Muge was actually the most shameless person in the Demon Realm?

"You!" Jingfeng couldn't understand why the Demon Lord would have to abdicate in favor of such a woman.

Li Muge smiled and said, "Take care."

When only Li Muge and Yun Qi remained in the main hall, Li Muge's previously inappropriate gaze shifted.

She used her magic to enter Yun Qi's body and discovered that his senses were completely sealed by her magic.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I'll only ever be a fool for the rest of my life.

But for some reason, Li Muge held Yun Qi's hand, completely baffled.

Whenever she encounters this madman, her heart, which has been damaged by the Heart Gu, will feel better.
