Li Muge was in great pain.
She looked at Yun Qi's hands, which were tightly bound together with hers, and said, "Demon Lord, why don't you untie me?"
"No, once the dragon tendon is tied, it cannot be untied unless a specific key is used."
"Why? How could this be? No matter what, the dragon tendon is still just a rope. How can a rope not be untied?"
"Heh, don't you also lack the antidote from me?" Yun Qi glanced at him coldly.
“This… um…” Li Muge pondered for a moment, then looked seriously into Yun Qi’s eyes: “Demon Lord, I have heard that even if a dragon loses its claws, they can still grow them back.”
"Hmm, since the phoenix lost its feathers, why haven't I seen them grow back?"
Li Muge: "..."
"Demon Lord, are you kidding me? I'm trying to reason with you. You can't launch a mental attack on me."
Yun Qi chuckled lightly: "I'm just telling the truth. What, can't you women accept the truth?"
"Once the effects of the medicine wear off, the tendons binding us together can be untied."
Li Muge: "..."
The thief is still the Yunqi thief.
"But I am also worried about you, Demon Lord. I am on my way to capture someone. If those swords and blades are indiscriminate and you get hurt, I cannot bear the responsibility."
Li Muge and Yun Qi were in a mountain forest, a place of beautiful scenery and refreshing atmosphere.
However, the atmosphere between the two was extremely tense.
"For my own good, they are besieging the city and attacking the demon palace where I reside. For my own good, they now intend to cut off my hand."
"For my own good, you spread rumors everywhere, and now I am walking in the demon realm."
"If others didn't sympathize with me,..."
"Or we can just look down on them."
"Li Muge, if you treat me any better, I'm afraid I'll die sooner and be reborn sooner."
"Demon Lord, if you say that, then I am truly heartbroken." Li Muge was about to retort, but seeing Yun Qi unhappy made her happy anyway.
But she noticed a pair of eyes watching them from the shadows.
"The fish has taken the bait, Demon Lord, cooperate well." After saying that, Li Muge suddenly hugged Yun Qi.
“You…” Yun Qi’s brows furrowed slightly, and for a moment, he questioned himself.
What would he do if it wasn't Li Muge holding him, but someone else?
"Hurry up and cooperate." Li Muge tapped Yun Qi's shoulder with her free hand.
Yun Qi tried to gently place his hand on Li Muge's waist.
Her face was slightly flushed.
Fortunately, Li Muge, who had his back to him, couldn't see it.
The jealous gaze of the Lord of Mengling Valley seemed to want to burn the two people embracing in the mountains to ashes.
Those who dared to destroy the peaceful city he created must be punished.
The Nether Stone in the city lord's hand emitted a blue-green light, which entered his body.
Instantly, his eyes were filled with resentment.
"Go to hell."
Having obtained the power of the Netherworld Stone, the city lord flew towards Yun Qi's direction.
Li Muge reacted quickly, pushing Yun Qi away and raising his hand to catch the palm strike from the Lord of Mengling Valley.
"You pervert, today I, the Protector, will punish you severely."
Li Muge used only one hand to lash out with the bone whip and fight the city lord of Mengling Valley.
But what she really wants is the approval of the Netherworld Stone.
Li Muge grabbed Yun Qi's wrist and flipped him several times in the air, barely dodging the resentment in the Netherworld Stone.
Her eyes narrowed slightly. Li Muge knew very well that her greatest enemy was not the Lord of Mengling Valley who was controlled by the Netherworld Stone.
It was Yun Qi.
She is just like Yun Qi.
He was never a good person; he was ruthless and unscrupulous in achieving his goals.
The only difference is probably...
She has a good heart.
But Yun Qi did not.
"I'm going to kill you all, and then show that man's face to me, the city lord."
"Heh, I didn't expect you, you pervert, to have such low taste."
Yun Qi forced himself to stay alert: "Who are you calling low-class?"
“Well… um, he’s high-class,” Li Muge said hesitantly.
“You…” Yun Qi fell into deep thought, clearly unsure of what to say.
"The city lord intends to kill you all. Mengling Valley is the most beautiful place, and you will not be able to erase its beauty."
Li Muge gathered his resentment in his palm with one hand and struck the Lord of Mengling Valley directly.
Then, taking advantage of Yun Qi's distraction, he concentrated all his strength and struck Yun Qi with a palm.
Blood seeped from the corner of Yun Qi's mouth.
"Li Muge, you really don't hold back,"
"Tit for tat." Li Muge raised his hand, unleashing flames that burned through the dragon's tendons.
They easily took the Netherworld Stone from the Lord of Mengling Valley.
She felt a slight pang of guilt towards Yun Qi.
Yun Qi stood up, clutching his shoulder.
Li Muge's eyes were sharp as she warily looked at the man in front of her. No one knew better than her how dangerous this person was.
"No, give it back to me! I am the city lord! I am the city lord!" The city lord of Mengling Valley was delirious and no longer in his right mind.
"Give me back the stone, or I'll have nothing left."
Enraged that his only remaining asset had been taken away, the Lord of Mengling Valley stood up, drew his dagger, and charged directly at Li Muge.
"You wretched woman, I'm going to kill you!"
"careful."
Yun Qi mustered his strength to get up, ran to Li Muge's side, hugged her tightly, and took the knife for her.
"You're courting death." Li Muge directly swung a palm at the Lord of Mengling Valley.
Faced with absolute power.
The Lord of Mengling Valley was like a clown, unable to escape.
Having been hit by Li Muge's spell, he fell straight to the ground, his hands and feet twisting in a bizarre way.
"Are you alright, Demon Lord?" Li Muge hurriedly helped Yun Qi up, only to discover that the dagger was poisoned.
"Damn it, you pervert!" Li Muge cast a spell, controlling a large rock not far away, intending to crush the already insane Lord of Mengling Valley to death.
"Please wait, young lady."
Yao Niang came out, dressed in plain clothes.
"You've come to beg me to let him go."
Li Muge had this as his original plan: to use the life of the Lord of Mengling Valley to exchange for Yao Niang's affections.
"No, Yao Niang is here to attend the city magistrate's funeral."
"What?" Li Muge was stunned.
But she first used magic to force the poison out of Yun Qi's body, and then helped Yun Qi to the side.
Yao Niang's smile was warm. Although her appearance was not outstanding, Li Muge felt that her affection for the city lord was more precious than any treasure in the world.
Unfortunately, the city lord was blinded by the world's splendor and did not know how to cherish it.
Yao Niang bit her finger and dripped her blood onto the red spider lily.
He handed it to Li Muge.
“Girl, I am willing to make this exchange with you, but I have only one wish: that you can help the people of Mengling Valley so that they can return to the way things were before and live ordinary lives.”
"Don't look at me, don't look at me, Yao Niang, I'm so ugly." Even unconsciously, the Lord of Mengling Valley was still calling out Yao Niang's name.
Yao Niang pulled out the hairpin from her head and, without hesitation, stabbed it directly into the city lord's heart.
Her tears fell drop by drop onto Mengling Valley's wound.
