The expressions of everyone in the Immortal Realm immediately changed; everyone knew how terrifying the power of origin was.
The one who possessed this power wreaked havoc in the Three Realms back then, and it was only through the combined efforts of Buddha Shakyamuni and the human war god Ye Luo that it was sealed away.
Now that the seal has been broken and the primordial power has escaped, it will probably not be so easy for the Immortal Realm to reseal it.
Li Muge was just about to gloat, after all, she was quite happy to see those hypocritical people in the Immortal Realm having such a hard time.
But perhaps extreme joy can turn to sorrow.
The power of origin breaks the seal.
It suddenly pulled Li Muge in, and to everyone's surprise, all the power of origin was injected into Li Muge's body.
"Ha ha ha ha."
"Hahahaha." Xiao Xue looked at her severed index finger and laughed maniacally. She couldn't wait to see Li Muge explode from the pressure of the source power.
Li Muge hovered in mid-air, using all her cultivation to resist the power of origin, but she still couldn't prevent the power of origin from entering the meridians of her body.
The white tiger roared uneasily.
Li Muge clenched her fists, her hair disheveled. She was unwilling to die; she could not die. She still wanted to revive Xiao Shaoyao.
"No, I can't let this woman continue like this." Yun Qi flew to Li Muge's side and put his arm around her waist.
He circled in mid-air, then injected his divine sense into Li Muge's body, guiding Li Muge to soothe the restless primordial power within him and temporarily seal it away.
When the people of the immortal realm saw that Li Muge was not dead, they immediately set up an array to deal with him.
Now that Li Muge possesses the power of origin, a power capable of destroying the Three Realms, they cannot allow Li Muge to leave immediately, no matter what.
Several immortal lords and generals from the celestial realm rushed forward, but Yun Qi's mere glance was enough to stop them from moving.
With a wave of his sleeve, Yun Qi sent an overwhelming force crashing down upon the immortals.
They all knelt down uncontrollably.
Yun Qi held Li Muge, who had fallen into a coma, and carried her away from the Boundless Sea.
Upon returning to the Demon Realm, Yun Qi immediately summoned the best physicians to treat Li Muge, hoping she could wake up.
Three days have passed, and Li Muge remains unconscious, unable to swallow any medicine.
His complexion gradually became dry and yellow.
"What happened?" Yun Qi raised his hand to touch the unconscious Li Muge, and when he ran his hand over her eyes, he suddenly felt a pang of pain in his heart.
Gong Yujia learned that the Demon Lord had returned.
She couldn't help but smile; she knew Yun Qi wouldn't abandon her.
But when she arrived at Yun Qi's bedchamber, she found Li Muge lying unconscious on the bed that originally belonged to the Demon Lord.
A dark look flashed in her eyes as she hid outside the door and tightly gripped the palace door.
After a moment, she composed herself.
Upon entering the main hall, they saw that Li Muge was neither crying nor making a fuss, but her gaze towards Yun Qi revealed a faint sadness.
Yun Qi felt a pang of guilt.
He didn't know what was wrong with him; Gong Yujia was clearly the woman he loved most.
But he still couldn't help caring about Li Muge, this woman.
"I'm sorry, but Li Muge is, after all, a protector of the Demon Realm. If something happens to her, the Demon Realm will lose some of its support."
Yun Qi explained calmly.
"It's alright, Demon Lord, I understand." Gong Yujia stepped forward and hugged Yun Qi tightly.
"Demon Lord, please don't leave me. I'd rather not have a title, as long as we can still love each other like we did when we were going through our tribulations in the mortal realm. You said you would stay by my side for all eternity."
Gong Yujia's tears fell at just the right moment. Yun Qi pushed Gong Yujia away. For some reason, he felt numb all over when Gong Yujia got close.
"I'm sorry, I'm not ready yet. You should go and rest."
Gong Yujia collapsed onto the cold floor in disbelief: "Demon Lord, have you changed your mind?"
"Have you fallen for the Dharma Protector? Have you changed your mind because of her?"
A hint of unease flashed across Yun Qi's gentle eyes: "How could that be? Alright, Gong Yujia, stop overthinking. I was just using Li Muge."
As he finished speaking, he didn't notice that Li Muge had moved slightly while he was unconscious.
Li Muge was actually fully conscious the whole time.
She just couldn't come to her senses. When she heard Yun Qi say that all the kindness he showed her was just an attempt to take advantage of her, she felt nothing but sarcasm.
A tear rolled down her cheek.
Gong Yujia used her hands to support herself on the ground and staggered to her feet, feeling only irony in her heart.
"Why, Demon Lord? I love you so much, and you love me too, so why has everything changed since we returned from our tribulations?"
"This woman ruined the wedding we always wanted, humiliated me, and trampled on my dignity, yet you still take care of her."
Gong Yujia's eyes revealed a hint of despair: "I would rather die than see my man treat my favorite so well."
After saying that, Gong Yujia slapped her own heart, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground.
Yun Qi's pupils contracted slightly; he hadn't expected Gong Yujia to act so aggressively.
He grabbed Gong Yujia and ran to the clinic. Gong Yujia's clothes were covered in blood. "Demon Lord, if I die, you must take good care of yourself from now on."
Yun Qi was instantly transported back to the time of his tribulation, when he witnessed Gong Yujia die before his eyes, but at that time he was just a human.
Even if he returns to his rightful place, will he still be powerless to do anything and witness the death of the woman he loves once again?
Gong Yujia will not die; this was all just a performance she put on for the Demon Lord.
She was afraid that she had finally won all of the Demon Lord's love, and that the appearance of Li Muge would take it all away from her.
After Yun Qi left,
Li Muge opened her eyes indifferently, her heart filled with indescribable emotions.
She pressed her head down, her heart aching. It was Gong Yujia who had caused her this.
Doesn't Gong Yujia want to die?
She let her make it real.
_
After being cared for by several imperial physicians, Gong Yujia's health gradually improved.
She leaned against the headboard; during this time, the Demon Lord had been taking meticulous care of her.
If she could, she would wish time could stand still in this moment, and she would pay any price for it.
As long as the Demon Lord's heart will always belong to her.
"Are you happy, Gong Yujia?"
A bright and cheerful female voice suddenly came from the Misty Rain Pavilion where Gong Yujia lived.
"Who, who is it?" Gong Yujia's smile froze as she looked around warily.
"What? You can't even recognize my voice after just a short time?"
"Gong Yujia, do you really have a bad memory?"
Li Muge flashed to Gong Yujia's side, grabbed her throat, and tightened her grip.
"Do you really enjoy stealing other people's things, Gong Yujia?"
Gong Yujia was not afraid, but instead laughed: "Of course, Li Muge was the Demon Lord I liked the first."
"You really are a madman. Tell me, what kind of sorcery did you use on the Demon Lord to make him like this?"
Li Muge's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and every word was ruthless: "If you don't speak, this protector will make you vanish into thin air, leaving you no chance to turn the tables."
