"Li Muge, release our Demon Lord."
Driven by a strong desire to protect its master, the gust of wind drew its sword and thrust it towards Li Muge.
When the sword touched Li Muge, Li Muge simply raised his hand and flipped it over, and the sword in his hand immediately began to shatter.
"Troublesome." Li Muge curled her lips coldly, and with a wave of her hand, used her primal power to control everyone else.
He slowly walked to Yun Qi's side and stepped on Yun Qi's back: "Demon Lord, you seem to be very dissatisfied with my actions."
Yun Qi chuckled, his dark eyes filled with a chilling gloom: "Li Muge, you'd better kill me now, or I will definitely kill you one day."
"Still dare to talk back." Li Muge lashed Yun Qi's face with a whip, leaving a black scar.
Li Muge was very satisfied with everything she had caused. Her eyes darkened: "Yun Qi, do you think this protector will let you die?"
“From this day forward, you are no longer the Demon Lord, but a lowly slave belonging to this Protector.”
"If I tell you to go east, you cannot go west. If you disobey..." Li Muge looked at his hands, a fierce glint in his lips, and raised an eyebrow slightly.
"I, the protector, will make you wish you were never born, and you will have nowhere to die."
Ghost Valley was barren, just like Yun Qi's heart at that moment. He felt that his dignity and tens of thousands of years of planning had been trampled and destroyed under Li Muge's feet.
Li Muge brought Yun Qi back to the City of Extreme Evil and actually used his primordial power to seal Yun Qi's magic.
He was made a slave, subjected to the lowest form of slavery in the Evil City, and suffered endless torment.
They slept on beds made of straw and ate food that was almost spoiled.
Every day they had to do many of the hard labors that slaves were required to do.
Mining.
Smash the rocks.
Chopping wood, carrying water.
Li Muge's greatest pleasure every day is watching Yun Qi suffer, but sometimes she thinks about how Yun Qi has already broken her wings.
But then they felt that this wasn't enough, that it was too easy on Yun Qi.
They should have been even harsher.
"Guardian, please have your meal." Cang Lan brought the food up, and Li Muge subconsciously responded.
Seeing Cang Lan, he paused for a moment, then asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"
A layer of mist immediately appeared in Li Muge's azure eyes, making Li Muge extremely confused.
She always remembered the kindness she had shown Cang Lan, and felt a pang of pity: "No, Cang Lan, why are you crying?"
“You have no connection with me now. Even if you stay here, my mind will not change.”
Li Muge spoke with absolute certainty. If Cang Lan only wanted to use her, she could play along with Cang Lan's empty promises.
But if what Canglan said is true, he really did fall in love with her a long time ago.
Since she dislikes him, she shouldn't give him any more hope.
"Go back, go back to the Spirit Clan, and don't come to the City of Extreme Evil again," Li Muge earnestly advised.
“No.” Cang Lan knelt on the ground, her expression devout: “Guardian, you don’t need to have any worries about me. As long as I am your concubine, I will always be yours.”
Just as Li Muge was about to refuse again, she noticed a wisp of black mist on Cang Lan's wrist.
"What's wrong with you?" Ignoring Cang Lan's resistance, Li Muge insisted on grabbing Cang Lan's hand and pulling open Cang Lan's sleeve.
His fair hands were gradually enveloped in black mist, as if they were alive. This was also the reason why Cang Lan looked increasingly weak after she came out of seclusion.
“It’s nothing.” Cang Lan calmly pulled her hand away from Li Mu’s heart: “Guardian, you don’t need to worry, I’m fine, it’s just a minor injury.”
“How could it be a minor injury?” Li Muge suddenly recalled the scene when Cang Lan blocked Yun Qi’s fatal sword technique for her back then.
I was immediately puzzled. Could it be that the injury from back then hadn't fully healed? That shouldn't be the case.
She used her inner core to heal Canglan, so how come Canglan still has such serious injuries?
"Tell me, how did you get such serious injuries?" Li Muge pressed, grabbing Cang Lan again.
He rolled up his sleeves and placed them on the table.
Azure bowed its head and remained silent.
Li Muge's expression darkened: "If you don't tell me, I will ask Niu Zhan or She Gu and get to the bottom of this. I believe they will give me an answer."
Seeing that Li Muge was really going to summon Niu Zhan and She Gu, Cang Lan smiled wryly for a moment: "Guardian, you've been in seclusion for hundreds of years."
"The Giant Scorpion Demon Clan has set its sights on the increasingly prosperous Evil City under your rule, launching several attacks and even sending several spies into the city."
"I was injured by the stinger on the giant scorpion's tail when I was killing one of the traitors."
"These bastards." Li Muge's face grew darker and darker, and he thought of the people in the Evil City and Niu Zhan's words.
Li Muge's tone softened considerably: "Canglan, you've worked hard for the past few hundred years. I am very grateful to you for taking care of the Evil City for me during my seclusion."
"It's alright, Dharma Protector. I'm willing to do anything for you."
After saying that, Cang Lan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
Li Muge's pupils contracted, and when she looked down, the black mist on Cang Lan's wrist began to spread again.
She quickly cast a spell, using her primal power to suppress the spread of the giant scorpion's venom within Azure's body.
They also selected the best doctor in the city of extreme evil to treat Azure.
But when the doctor saw that the protector wanted him to treat Canglan, he immediately understood everything. He knelt on the ground, his body trembling.
"What's wrong?" Li Muge kicked the young doctor directly: "Can you cure Canglan? Give me an answer! I'm not going to eat you."
The doctor knelt on the ground, looking troubled: "Your Excellency, I already knew about the poison in Consort Canglan's body."
"But the venom of the giant scorpion is inherently difficult to cure, and the venom on the Azure Guardian's body is not ordinary giant scorpion venom."
"He was also poisoned by the mist venom that the giant scorpion had brought from another race."
"When both are combined, it becomes a deadly poison, rendering any medicine useless!"
"This is outrageous! I never expected that the giant scorpion clan would be so audacious."
"If it weren't for Yun Qi, I wouldn't have known whether this Evil City belonged to the Giant Scorpion Clan or to me after I came out of seclusion."
Li Muge gritted her teeth; those who knew her well knew she was genuinely angry.
“Snake Maiden, I do not want to see a single member of the Giant Scorpion Clan alive within the next three days.”
"Yes, madam." Snake Maiden accepted the order, sat on the black python, and left the main hall.
“Ignoring medicine and stone.” Li Muge pondered these four words, looking at the pale, almost transparent blue face lying on the bed.
"Tell me, what other way is there to save Canglan? As long as you can pursue Canglan, I can promise you that in the City of Extreme Evil, your wealth and riches will be inexhaustible."
After thinking for a moment, the physician gritted his teeth and told Li Muge the only way to save Canglan.
