Chapter 37 Returning the Silver Before Dying



"Demon Lord, how dare you come to the Immortal Realm to interrogate me? Look at what your protectors have done!"

The Heavenly Empress did not take the Demon Lord Yun Qi, who was seen as having a good temper to the point of being somewhat cowardly, seriously in the eyes of the people of the Three Realms.

“My son, the Immortal Realm heir, Emperor Wuchen, was blinded by her. For that alone, even if Li Muge died a thousand or ten thousand times, it wouldn’t be enough.”

Anger made the dignified and elegant empress's face appear somewhat ferocious.

"I will teach my own people; I don't need anyone else to do it."

Yun Qi slowly walked to the side of the dying phoenix, his deep pupils reflecting in Li Muge's pupils.

Li Muge sighed.

As expected, the dogs that bite don't bark. If I hadn't been reborn, I might actually think that Yun Qi is still a human being.

I helped her.

"Good girl." Yun Qi's voice was gentle as he raised his hand and gently patted Li Muge's head, who had already transformed into her true form.

After a burst of light, Li Muge transformed into human form and lay weakly on the ground.

Yun Qi chuckled: "What, you can't even handle such a small setback? This isn't the Li Muge I know."

Li Muge was already weak, and upon hearing Yun Qi's words, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

She opened her eyes and glared at Yun Qi with annoyance. "Demon Lord, don't worry, I'm perfectly fine."

Yun Qi smiled slightly and extended his hand to Li Muge: "Do you need me to help you up?"

"No need, thank you, Demon Lord, I am perfectly fine." Li Muge stubbornly plunged the Phoenix Cry Sword into the floor.

The Empress fell into a pool of blood.

A dagger was stuck in his chest, and the wound was still bleeding.

Li Muge found it amusing: "Empress, you always talk about heart's blood, heart's blood. Now that you've tried it yourself, I wonder if it's comfortable."

The Empress was helped up by the Wind King. Her face was pale, but her eyes showed extreme disgust for Li Muge.

“Li Muge, you are a devil. You don’t even recognize the parents who raised you. You will get your retribution sooner or later.”

"Ha, retribution. As long as Su Qing is alive, I will not believe in the word retribution."

"Let's go."

Thinking of Xiao Shaoyao, Li Muge turned to leave, and Niu Zhan immediately followed.

"How dare you, Li Muge! You can't leave now!" The Empress's hair was disheveled.

At that moment, she seemed like a shrew from the mortal world.

Li Muge turned around and glanced at the Empress.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will not kill you. On the contrary, after I return to the Demon Realm, I will pray for you every day and bless you with a long and healthy life."

Niu Zhan tried to help Li Muge, but Li Muge pushed him away and limped forward, supporting herself with her sword.

Yun Qi tightened his grip on the prayer beads, his eyes darkening. He turned around, caught up with Li Muge, and suddenly pulled her into his arms.

"What are you doing, Demon Lord? Put your subject down!" Being hugged by his hated nemesis, Li Muge felt goosebumps rising on his skin.

"Let you go. You're walking too slowly. Don't you know you're delaying my business?"

Yun Qi's cold words made Li Muge immediately huddle in his arms like a quail.

Seeing this, Yun Qi's lips curled up imperceptibly.

"Halt! Demon Lord, Li Muge, you have trampled on the dignity of our Immortal Realm. Don't even think about leaving here peacefully."

"Guards! Kill them at all costs!" The Empress was furious.

However, even when those heavenly generals and soldiers cast their spells, they couldn't get even half an inch closer to Demon Lord Yun Qi.

They watched helplessly as Demon Lord Yun Qi, carrying Li Muge, brazenly disappeared.

The God of Love could hardly believe it.

I always thought the newly appointed Demon Lord was a useless person controlled by the ministers of the Demon Realm, but now it seems that's not entirely true.

It's probably due to my occupational habits.

When the Old Man Under the Moon sees someone, he likes to look at that person's fate line.

He had investigated this Demon Lord Yun Qi before; he was clearly destined to be a lone star, but this time…

A faint red line appeared on Yun Qi's wrist, clearly a sign that she was about to have good luck in love.

How could someone destined to be alone have a partner?

The Old Man of the Moon ran back to his marriage palace, picked up his books, and searched for a long time, but he still couldn't find Yun Qi's destined person.

That's really strange.

What troubled the Old Man of the Moon was not only this matter, but also the fateful couple, Emperor Wuchen and Li Muge.

He had already checked.

The marriage between Emperor Wuchen and Li Muge was a union they had cultivated for ten lifetimes.

But for some reason, the red thread between Li Muge and Emperor Wuchen disappeared overnight.

Instead, the storyline shifts to the marriage between Princess Su Qing and Emperor Wuchen.

However, by then Li Muge had been rejected by the Three Realms, and even the Phoenix God Clan who gave birth to her had abandoned her.

It's obvious to everyone that the Empress Dowager prefers Princess Su Qing as her daughter-in-law.

He didn't want to go up there and risk getting into trouble.

-

Li Muge remained in a daze.

She even regretted being reborn. Did Heaven allow her to be reborn so that she would experience the pain of losing everything again?

"Guardian." Little Peony suddenly appeared in front of Li Muge. Her lively nature made her abruptly remove the flower wreath from her head: "Guardian, this flower wreath is for you."

"No, I don't want to." Li Muge's eyes were filled with tears: "Little Peony, I was wrong. I hurt you. I was too arrogant. Even after being reborn, I have never learned my lesson."

"Little Peony, it's all my fault. I didn't protect you. Why do all the people I care about have to leave me? What did I do wrong?"

Li Muge collapsed to the ground.

She knew perfectly well that this was nothing more than a dream.

“Guardian, you are right. Sister Peony said that if any bad people try to bully us, we must bully them back hard so that they won’t dare to bully us next time.”

"Little Peony." Li Muge raised his hand to touch Little Peony's face, but Little Peony's body became a blur in Li Muge's vision.

The next moment, Li Muge suddenly woke up.

She sat up and suddenly realized that her hands were wrapped up like pig's trotters.

Li Muge instinctively reached out to untie it.

Yun Qi's cold voice reached Li Muge's ears.

“Li Muge, if you want to die faster, then so be it, but…” Yun Qi raised an eyebrow: “I would appreciate it if the Demon Queen could repay the spirit stones she owes me beforehand.”

"hehe."

Li Muge was so angry she laughed.

"Demon Lord, have you forgotten that we are already husband and wife? Why should we divide your money and mine? Besides, according to most customs, isn't it usually the wife who manages the money?"

Li Muge responded with a forced smile.

"I am different." Yun Qi said calmly.

"Hmm, what's different?" Li Muge asked with a stern face. She wanted to see what other crazy things this guy could come up with.

"I am a son-in-law."

Li Muge: "..."

Just as Li Muge was about to lose control of his desire to perish together with Yun Qi.

A spy from the Phoenix Clan reported that they had found intelligence that could break the Heart Gu.
