Li Muge was troubled by Yun Qi's poisoning when Cang Lan walked in carrying a bowl of sweet soup, a deep smile on her face: "Your Majesty, I noticed you didn't eat much tonight, so I specially brought you some sweet soup made from free-range chicken. Please try it!"
Azure's comforting voice and exquisite, mysterious appearance failed to pique Li Muge's interest.
"It's okay, just put it there!" Li Muge didn't even look up, which made Cang Lan feel a little resentful. He put the sweet soup on the table.
"Is Your Majesty tired of me?" Cang Lan's voice choked with emotion, as if those who had hurt him were all heinous criminals.
"No, not really! But now that you and your spirit clan have submitted to me, Azure, there has only ever been business between us. As long as you and your spirit clan can behave yourselves, why would I be annoyed?"
Li Muge actually knew Canglan's feelings, but now she only liked that petty, jealous demon lord, and her heart could no longer accommodate a second man.
At first, he was kind to Cang Lan only because of the suffering they had endured together when they were slaves.
Ever since Canglan betrayed her, all that goodwill has long since been wiped out.
“I knew it, Your Majesty, you’re still blaming me.” Cang Lan’s tears fell: “But Your Majesty, Cang Lan really doesn’t want to see you working so hard, taking care of the Demon Lord during the day and managing all these affairs in the Three Realms at night.”
The concern in Cang Lan's eyes was undeniable.
Li Muge put down the memorial: "No need, Canglan Gu only wants to drink the sweet soup brewed by the Demon Lord now."
"Okay." Cang Lan's steps were a little unsteady as she left Li Muge's Spring and Autumn Pavilion, carrying the original bowl of sweet soup.
He sullenly poured out the bowl of sweet soup.
Cang Lan really couldn't understand why Li Muge could easily forgive the Demon Lord for doing such a heinous thing to her, but he...
It was just one mistake.
Li Muge will always be wary of him.
She no longer allowed him any chance to get close to her heart.
——
Seeing that Li Muge had ruined the scheme he had set up, Yun Qi realized that things couldn't continue like this.
He sacrificed so much hoping that Li Muge would be safe and sound, but now it seems that Li Muge is about to clash with Wuchen again, so in the end Li Muge will definitely be killed by Wuchen just like in the end of the novel.
After careful consideration, Yun Qi...
They intend to repeat the same trick.
He pretended to obey Li Muge, then took advantage of Li Muge's lowered guard to cripple her magic and seal her away.
That way, Li Muge won't be able to get out.
Thinking of this, Yun Qi felt a pang of pain in his heart. He knew that what he was doing was far too cruel to Li Muge.
But as long as Li Muge can live safely.
He can only be that kind of villain again.
Actually, when Li Muge gave birth to Xiao Yunle, he did not leave but instead concealed his presence and stayed by Li Muge's side.
He only left with peace of mind after Mu Ge successfully gave birth to her daughter.
Li Muge was heartbroken, but Yun Qi was also extremely distressed.
Yun Qi's strength lies in her meticulous planning and ability to avoid mistakes, but she will never know that Li Muge at this moment is no longer the same Li Muge as before.
When Li Muge delivered medicine to Yun Qi, she overheard Yun Qi's inner thoughts and then realized that this bastard was planning another scheme to feign allegiance and then stab her in the back.
The fire in my heart was almost too much to contain; that idiot Yun Qi.
Li Muge just didn't understand. Why didn't everyone just talk things out and solve them together? Why did he have to jump into that pit and die?
Alright, he has a masochistic tendency, and it's one thing for him to torment himself, but he even wants to torment her as well.
Li Muge was so angry she almost lost her composure. She thought to herself, "Why don't I just strangle Yun Qi now, so he won't keep overthinking all day long?"
"What is it, Your Majesty?" Yun Qi asked gently. Such a man was like a flower on a high mountain. If he were willing to lower himself and choose to coax a woman, the success rate would be about ninety-nine percent.
But now Li Muge was determined to be that one percent who failed. She held back her tears and grabbed Yun Qi's somewhat cold hand.
"Demon Lord, there's something I've always wanted to tell you, but I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it." Li Muge's eyes were sincere, though she occasionally let out a sob.
Yun Qi cried so hard that she got chills down her spine.
At first, he remained quite calm: "It's alright, Your Majesty. Can you tell me if it's a good thing or a bad thing?"
Before Li Muge could even speak, Jingfeng brought Snake Girl to see the Demon Lord, even though Snake Girl had already whispered in Jingfeng's ear eight hundred times.
It was extremely safe for the Demon Lord to stay by Li Muge's side, but Jingfeng just wouldn't believe it and insisted on coming to see the Demon Lord for himself, only to find out that the Demon Lord was unharmed.
Only then could he put his mind at ease.
Just as Li Muge was about to cry a few more times before answering Yun Qi, a gust of wind suddenly slid to Yun Qi's bedside on his knees.
Without saying a word, he spoke up: "Demon Lord, what's wrong with you? How many more days do you have left to live? My poor Demon Lord."
After saying this, Jingfeng glared fiercely at Li Muge: "Li Muge, the Demon Lord is now poisoned and dying, and you only now realize how good our Demon Lord is!"
"The Demon Lord will never forgive you. Get out of here, don't taint the Demon Lord's path to the underworld."
Yun Qi: "…………"
When did he say those things?
However, when Yun Qi heard Jing Feng's heartfelt cries, as if he were about to lie in a coffin, he began to worry, and then he thought of the secret Li Muge had mentioned.
Is he really going to die?
Thinking of this, Yun Qi wished he could just be thrown away by the strong wind. What did he mean by not wanting Mu Ge to taint his path to the underworld?
He also hoped that Li Muge would bring more gold and silver treasures with him when he died, and that people would visit his grave on the first and fifteenth of each lunar month.
Even though Li Muge wanted to control her expression, she had already suppressed her laughter to the point of numbness.
She couldn't help but smile slightly. Before she could say anything, Yun Qi had already planned out his life after death. It was really hilarious.
Seeing Li Muge still smiling, Jingfeng felt even more sorrowful, feeling sorry for the Demon Lord.
"Li Muge, even our Demon Lord has come to this point, and you're still laughing? Do you even have a heart left?"
Actually, it wasn't just Li Muge who was laughing; Snake Aunt was already clutching her stomach, laughing so hard her face was contorted.
But just as Jin Feng was about to glare, the colorful little snake in Snake Girl's hand immediately narrowed its eyes and flicked its tongue at him dangerously.
He immediately wilted.
Yun Qi was filled with thoughts: "Your Majesty, am I really going to die?"
In fact, Yun Qi sensed something was wrong. His magic power had not been completely sealed by Li Muge. The reason he pretended to be sickly was simply to lower Li Muge's guard against him.
But Jingfeng always followed him, being his right-hand man and always loyal to him.
Even though Yun Qi realized that her body was fine, she couldn't help but wonder if she was really poisoned beyond repair, even though she looked like she was almost recovered.
It was actually a last gasp before it died.
