Su Qing was still bedridden when she heard the news of Emperor Wuchen's injury and rushed over.
Upon hearing that Emperor Wuchen's injuries might leave him blind for the rest of his life, he coughed incessantly, even coughing up blood from the handkerchief in his hand.
She collapsed heartbroken beside Wuchen's bed, crying so pitifully that I could hardly bear to look at her.
"Emperor Wuchen, it's all Qing'er's fault. If it weren't for Qing'er, how could you have been injured by Sister Muge?"
"How could you do this, Sister Muge? If you hate me, just kill me. It doesn't matter if you lose your life."
"As long as she can forgive me, Qing'er, Qing'er will do anything. Why, why take your anger out on Emperor Wuchen?" Su Qing's face was pale, and her tears were as clear as crystal.
It must be said that she is indeed a beauty, with a gentle and graceful appearance. A single tear from her can move countless people.
The Empress heard Su Qing mention Li Muge.
Her tone immediately turned sour: "Hmph, what's wrong with Qing'er? A thousand years ago, it was clearly Li Muge who wronged you."
"She is clearly just a phoenix of lowly birth and mediocre bloodline, yet she still wants to usurp the nest. It's just a pity for you, Qing'er."
The Empress Dowager kindly helped Su Qing up and sighed.
“Qing’er, you were mistakenly switched at birth and placed in a farming family. Li Muge even took your place as a princess in the Phoenix Clan for hundreds of years.”
"It wasn't easy for you to find out about your background, find your biological parents, and even accept her as your own sister."
"It's one thing for her to be ungrateful, but she actually thought she was jealous and wanted to kill you. How can we tolerate such a person? She can never become our immortal realm's future daughter-in-law."
"Your Majesty, what about Emperor Wuchen? Is there any way to cure Brother Wuchen?" Su Qing cried out, "Your Majesty, I beg you, I'll do anything to save Emperor Wuchen."
The Empress saw how sensible Su Qing was and how deeply she loved her son.
He felt even more disgusted with Li Muge.
“Good child, don’t cry. A woman like Li Muge is not worthy of being your sister. Since she injured my son’s eyes, I will make her pay with her own eyes.”
The Empress took a handkerchief and tenderly wiped away Su Qing's tears from her delicate face: "Don't worry, Qing'er, you are the daughter-in-law I have chosen. It's just a few drops of blood from my heart, I will definitely make her hand it over."
Get the promise you want.
Su Qing's face, which was resting on the Empress's shoulder, showed a hint of gloom.
Li Muge actually dared to injure the Emperor.
She will absolutely not let her go.
She was born a noble golden phoenix. If it weren't for Li Muge and her parents, she would have enjoyed a life of luxury for hundreds of years.
Li Muge was destined to be trampled underfoot and despised by everyone.
——
Outside the Demon Realm.
When the Heavenly Emperor learned that his only son had gone blind, he was furious.
He ordered his twelve star lords to lead tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers to guard outside the Demon Realm, forcing the Demon Lord to hand over Li Muge.
It's not that the Heavenly Emperor doesn't want to go to war with the Demon Realm.
It's because of what happened 10,000 years ago.
At that time, the world had just begun to awaken, and the battles between the immortal and demon realms were countless, which in turn affected the mortals in the lower realm.
Just when mortals were suffering unbearably.
A mortal woman ascended to heaven and used her life and cultivation to forge a contractual barrier between the realms of immortals and demons.
Once the realms of immortals and demons are embroiled in a major conflict.
The barrier will automatically take effect, separating the realms of immortals and demons.
This way, not only can countless lives be lost in the war between immortals and demons, but the flames of war can also be prevented from affecting the human world.
However, so many years have passed.
The immortals and demons are unable to wage war due to the balance of the barrier, but conflicts continue in the shadows.
The leader, the Big Dipper Star Lord, held the Heavenly Emperor's decree in his hand and stood arrogantly in front of the soldiers guarding the Demon Realm.
"By order of the Heavenly Emperor, your Demon Realm Protector dared to injure our Immortal Realm's Emperor Wuchen, causing him serious injury. This is truly despicable."
"Tell your Demon Lord that he had better hand over Li Muge as soon as possible, otherwise his position as Demon Lord might not be so secure."
The soldiers guarding the Demon Realm looked left and right, but the last soldier still ran into the Demon Realm and told Yun Qi what had happened.
Yun Qi got the result he wanted.
He feigned deep concern and summoned Li Muge for an audience.
Damn it, they even ordered the servants of the Demon Palace to bring over a screen in front of Li Muge. Li Muge was furious, but she forced herself to remain calm and not let it out.
Yun Qi, that fastidious man.
Don't think she doesn't know what he means; isn't he just disgusted by her being dirty?
Yun Qi's obsession with cleanliness is well-known throughout the Demon Realm.
Li Muge witnessed firsthand that he didn't want to eat food cooked by others because of his germaphobia, or he would fast.
Either burn it yourself.
Within a hundred paces, no one can get close.
The fact that he suppressed his germaphobia for the sake of his plan is enough to prove how important Yun Qibu's scheme was.
Unfortunately...
This time, he was facing a reborn woman who knew his plans inside and out.
Don't think she doesn't know what this scoundrel is thinking. He just wants to use her old grudges with the immortals to provoke a war between immortals and demons, and then hide in the shadows to shamelessly reap the benefits.
"Li Muge, do you know why I summoned you here today?"
The chair, made of purple-gold wood, is intricately carved with dragon patterns belonging to the Jiaolong (a mythical creature), which is said to have been specially commissioned by the Demon Lord.
Yun Qi was sitting on it at that moment.
Even through the screen, Li Muge couldn't see his expression, but she felt that heaven was truly unfair.
A man like Yun Qi.
Does he deserve such a beautiful voice?
Yun Qi's voice was deep and husky, with a magnetic quality that could stir a woman's heart.
In addition, there's that physical appearance.
She was exactly to Li Muge's aesthetic standards.
To be honest, the reason why she and Yun Qi became mortal enemies was not simply because they were politically opposed.
Li Muge can still remember the scene when she first met Yun Qi.
At that time, she had fallen into demonic possession and become a protector by the old demon lord's side, which was already a small achievement.
They happened to meet Yun Qi, who had just entered the Demon Realm.
At that time, he was participating in the Demon Realm's Trial of the Strongest, and the winner would be able to enter the Demon Palace.
At that time, Li Muge was probably blinded by male beauty. She stopped Yun Qi and asked him to name a price, saying she wanted to keep him as her mistress.
Yun Qiwen almost lost his composure.
"I'm afraid the Dharma Protector isn't qualified to take me on."
Actually, Li Muge was just saying it casually at the time, who knew that Yun Qi would hold such a grudge.
From then on, he opposed her at every turn in front of the old demon lord.
He's the epitome of a petty and narrow-minded man.
"Li Muge." After Yun Qi asked, he didn't hear a response from Li Muge for a long time. His gentle brows furrowed slightly, and he repeated himself.
"Ah! I'm sorry, Demon Lord, I was thinking about something and didn't hear you."
Yun Qi curled his lips into a smile, calmly turning the Buddhist prayer beads in his hand.
"Oh, I wonder what the Dharma Protector is thinking?"
"I'm thinking of taking care of you."
Li Muge spoke without thinking and blurted it out.
