"Yes, that's good."
Li Muge stroked his sleeve, particularly pleased that these ministers possessed such ideological awareness.
"Alright, enough nonsense. Drag Jingfeng away and get on your way as soon as possible so you can join the Demon Lord sooner."
Jingfeng: "..."
"Guardian, this subordinate disagrees." Jingfeng was also stunned; Li Muge was acting on a whim.
Yes, even if he was loyal to their Demon Lord.
They can't die, their bodies lie together.
Just imagining the scene is enough; his dead mother would definitely come back to life and kill him.
"Your subordinate is not convinced. Although you are a protector of our Demon Realm, you are also our Demon Queen. Since the Demon Lord is dead, the Demon Queen should be buried with him."
"How could it be my turn?" Cold sweat broke out on Jingfeng's forehead.
Li Muge raised an eyebrow: "You men are really hard to fathom. It's not that you're the one who's willing to die for your Demon Lord."
"They say the Demon Lord's body is still warm. Perfect timing, go down and warm him up."
The ministers stood in the council hall, looking at each other. As expected of Li Muge.
Such shameless words are uttered with such grandiloquent composure.
After thinking it over, Jingfeng said, "Guardian Muge, I misspoke just now."
"I believe that the Demon Lord, even in the afterlife, would be pleased to see that you, Protector, continue to care for the Demon Realm and manage it so well."
"Then your body will definitely feel warm and cozy, so I won't need to warm it for you."
"Bah!" Upon hearing Jingfeng's words, King Qincheng's vision went black again: "Guard Jingfeng, what a lack of manly integrity!"
"To save your own life, you actually turned to Li Muge, that shameless female demon."
Jingfeng lowered its head and remained silent.
He wasn't afraid of the death penalty.
He was afraid that after he died, he would lie next to the Demon Lord.
Demon Lord, if you have a spirit in the afterlife, you must forgive him.
"King Qincheng, this is your fault. The protectors are clear and every clause is for the Demon Lord's benefit."
The strong wind made him kneel upright.
Li Muge thought for a moment and said, "I really didn't expect you to be so understanding. Alright then, consider it as warming the Demon Lord's remains. But considering your master-servant relationship with the Demon Lord..."
"Don't be buried with him, go and guard the Demon Lord's tomb."
"Thank you for your great kindness and virtue, Dharma Protector." Having escaped death by a hair's breadth, he immediately ran away as if his feet were on oil.
As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.
Demon Lord, I will definitely avenge you.
Go in peace, but please don't come up to see him.
Fortunately, Li Muge was unaware of Jingfeng's thoughts and even felt that he had done a good deed.
However, Li Yuan still did not become the Demon Lord.
At the Demon Lord's succession ceremony.
There must be a step where the new Demon Lord offers incense to the memorial tablets of the past Demon Lords.
Before the incense could even be lit, Li Yuanren was blown away by an unknown hurricane.
I almost lost my life.
The ministers clamored even louder in their disagreement.
“Guardian, we cannot offer incense to the Demon Lords of past generations. It must be that the spirits of the Demon Lords in heaven have not recognized him. Guardian, making a hasty decision will definitely affect the fortune of our Demon Realm.”
The Star Diviner stepped forward.
He and Li Muge had a pretty good relationship.
At this point, only he dared to step forward and offer a few words of advice.
"Well, that's fine too. These old folks are already dead, why bother with all this trouble?"
Li Muge left the ancestral hall.
My mind remained unsettled.
For the past few days, the same person has been appearing in her dreams, wearing the same clothes.
Li Muge knew that this was the Qingming Master she had been deeply in love with in her previous life.
Strangely, no matter how hard she chased, she could not see her master's face.
"Master Qingming." Li Muge's fingernails had already dug deep into his flesh without him realizing it.
Blood dripped onto the ground, drop by drop.
Meanwhile, in the celestial realm...
Su Qing has agreed to cooperate with the masked man, although she does not know the masked man's identity or status.
But the conditions he offered were enough to sway her.
Li Muge's existence was her greatest threat, so she went into the Empress's palace.
The Queen of Pop at this moment.
I am saddened because the Heavenly Emperor has been favoring Hua Qingqing during this period.
She had been married to the Heavenly Emperor for hundreds of thousands of years, but she never imagined that she would be inferior to even the substitute for that woman in the Heavenly Emperor's heart.
"Empress of Heaven".
Su Qing glanced at the Empress's expression and, feigning thoughtfulness, placed the ice lotus seeds she had brewed with cooling herbs in front of her.
"Your Majesty, you have lost a lot of weight these past few days. Please have some soup."
"How could I possibly eat that? That slut is pregnant again, and now that Wuchen has injured his eyes, he is already a bit weaker in terms of succession in the Immortal Realm."
"If that vixen gives birth to a boy," the Empress's face darkened.
Su Qing, however, disagreed.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Consort is merely someone the Heavenly Emperor brought from the mountains and fields. She has never seen the world. How can she compare to Your Majesty?"
"Besides, it's not certain whether the child in the Empress's belly will even be born."
Su Qing placed a bottle of medicine in the Empress's hand.
"If a pregnant woman smells this colorless and odorless medicine, it will turn the child in her womb into a monster."
"But that widow's belly is only for a child, and I'm doing this with you..."
The diva felt a little reluctant.
Su Qing softly comforted her, "Your Majesty, Qing'er is not doing this for herself, and neither are you doing this for yourself."
"We are all doing this for Emperor Wuchen."
"Good child, you've really suffered." Seeing that Su Qing was only thinking of her son, the Empress Dowager stroked Su Qing's hair with satisfaction.
Su Qing's eyes suddenly reddened.
"Your Majesty, Qing'er has been so scared these past few days. Do you think that if Brother Wuchen knew about everything we did back then, would he still love me and go back to Li Muge's side?"
"After all, Emperor Wuchen's feelings for Qing'er were just an illusion,"
"No, silly child, I will not let such a thing happen. You are the daughter-in-law I am most satisfied with."
The diva gripped the medicine bottle tightly, her face grim.
____
The center of the Immortal-Demon Contract Barrier.
Yun Qi set foot in this place once again.
When he discovered that Li Muge wanted to kill him, he simply decided to play along.
He faked his death to escape.
He tried many methods, but none of them succeeded in breaking the barrier.
Darkness is everywhere in the Three Realms, and countless evils spread from those dark corners.
Yun Qi felt disgusted and nauseous.
He was so eager to destroy the Three Realms, but Li Muge's transformation disrupted his carefully laid plans.
Legend has it that the key to the barrier between immortals and demons lies within the molten lava.
No one can break it.
She has lost count of how many days have passed and how many methods she has tried.
Nothing could break this damned barrier.
He couldn't help but hate the designer of this barrier.
How naive!
They thought that by separating the realms of immortals and demons, evil could truly disappear.
No, those evils are hidden in people's hearts.
Yun Qi touched his still chest, his gentle mask removed, revealing a sinister smile.
I forgot.
He has no heart.
