Chapter 394: Fluent in speech and telling lies
Lingxiang persuaded Maidong for a long time and he finally agreed to leave. I don’t know if they had a smooth journey, but I hope they didn’t encounter any obstacles.
With Wolf Head here and Lord Wumin's token on board, the guards probably wouldn't make things too difficult for them.
only……
But Lingxiang couldn't help but feel a little worried about Bo Luohui.
The so-called indifference to life and death is nothing more than the fact that things have not yet happened. As long as a person has some concerns, when it really comes to that point, he will be reluctant to let go.
Lingxiang doesn't have a deep understanding of Bo Luohui.
During Yuan Qing's time, Lingxiang hadn't questioned the other outer disciples, aside from Long Qi and the others. After all, she hadn't planned to stay in the sect long-term; she was simply trying to avoid the spotlight. And after encountering Bo Luohui in the Demon Realm, she had more to worry about, so she didn't delve into his character.
Although Bo Luohui said that he had nothing to be nostalgic about, he wondered if he would be reluctant to let go when the time came.
And Ophiopogon japonicus...
According to Wu Minjun, the Demon Realm and Fengdu are very far apart, and Fengdu is the only way to the Ghost Gate. Along the way, one has to conceal one's own breath and avoid ghost generals and underworld soldiers, which is extremely difficult.
Wolf Head will take them through the Ghost Market first, but Lingxiang doesn't know much about the Ghost Market, so she is always uneasy.
If only everything could go smoothly...
"Oh..." Lingxiang sighed heavily, completely forgetting her current situation.
“Bold!”
A sharp shout interrupted Lingxiang's thoughts, and she remembered that she was still in the Demon Lord's palace!
"Your Majesty asked you a question, and you dare not answer? Do you still have Your Majesty in your eyes?!" It was Yinghuan who was scolding Lingxiang.
Lingxiang was neither anxious nor impatient, and glanced at Yinghuan with disdain.
"No," Lingxiang asked innocently, "Shouldn't I keep Your Majesty in my heart?" Then she curled her lips and said, "I'm not like you, so thick-skinned that anything can be stuffed into your eyes."
I thought that after learning a lesson in the Shiyang Palace, Yinghuan would behave herself for a while, but I didn't expect that she would go to the Demon Lord first to stir up trouble.
Ha! Do you really think her Lingxiang is made of mud?
"Besides, how can a lowly servant like you get to point fingers at our family affairs?" Lingxiang said, shaking her skirt. "How can a servant like you be so unworthy as to interfere in matters between the master and the mistress?"
This sentence showed the princess's style. Not only did she scold Yinghuan, but she also belittled her.
When Yinghuan heard this, she was immediately furious, but because of the Demon Lord, she had to suppress her anger. However, she was extremely angry and looked extremely ugly.
Demon Lord Boyan saw all of this, but Lingxiang's words made him very happy, so he didn't care at all what would happen to Yinghuan.
After all, Lingxiang said that this was a family matter, a matter between them, and had nothing to do with others.
Lingxiang naturally said this on purpose. In front of others, she had to acknowledge this cheap father after all.
Demon Lord Boyan was delighted. He turned his back to hide his smile and asked in a hoarse voice, "You raised a phoenix in your temple?"
"Yes, I snatched it from the black beast when I was in Yunmengze." Lingxiang answered truthfully without any intention of hiding anything.
"What about Phoenix?"
"Flew away."
"Flew away?"
The Demon Lord turned around and looked at Lingxiang inquiringly, but apart from seeing sincerity on her face, he could not see anything else.
Sincerity is always the ultimate weapon to deal with enemies!
Besides, this is the fact, and Lingxiang has no intention of hiding it.
But when Yinghuan heard this, she started to yell.
"Your Majesty, the phoenix is an ancient auspicious sign, extinct for thousands of years. Its appearance in the demon world today is a great blessing for the demons, but the princess let it escape! This... this is a bit too..."
Yinghuan deliberately did not finish her words, and the meaning was self-evident.
Yes! Punish this ignorant little bitch! Punish her severely!
Lingxiang sneered, walked to Yinghuan with her hands behind her back, raised her hand and slapped Yinghuan in the face.
Yinghua was stunned at first, and was about to fight back, but suddenly realized that she had to pretend to be wronged, but her eyes were full of hatred.
"Why did the princess hit my subordinate?"
Lingxiang didn't answer, but just shook her hands and took a deep breath: "You bitch, you are so thick-skinned that you hit my hand so hard that it hurts."
"you!"
Yinghuan almost couldn't hold it back, but she managed to suppress her anger in the end.
"I don't know where I have done wrong. Please enlighten me, Princess."
Seeing that Yinghuan was so humble, Lingxiang nodded with satisfaction.
No matter whether she is sincere or not, as long as we feel good after this slap, it’s fine!
"The master hasn't spoken yet, but you have no manners at all. You're babble-babble-babble in the hall like a crow. Do you have any respect for hierarchy?"
These words were a bit harsh, and Yinghuan quickly bowed down and admitted her mistake, but her face looked vicious, as if she wanted to eat someone.
Seeing this, Lingxiang didn't pursue the matter any further and walked past Yinghuan's head as if she didn't care at all.
"If I remember correctly, you, a lowly servant, were present at the time. Why didn't you stop the phoenix from flying away? Now you're gossiping in front of His Majesty. Who are you trying to implicate?"
After hearing this, Yinghuan was afraid that the Demon Lord would believe it, so she quickly denied it, "I...I didn't! I..."
"Who said there wasn't one?" Lingxiang didn't give Yinghuan a chance to say more and interrupted her directly, "I have witnesses. Wumin Jun was there at the time."
Wu Minjun, who had kept silent all this time, stood up when he heard Lingxiang's words.
"General Yiyou was indeed serving in front of the princess's palace at that time."
Wu Minjun finished speaking and retreated again.
"I did see the phoenix, but the princess later ordered me to leave, so I..."
Yinghuan tried to explain herself quickly, but Lingxiang interrupted her again with a loud voice.
"You're leaving? Why would this princess ask you, a personal maidservant, to leave?"
"because……"
Yinghuan was about to say that it was because she was injured, but suddenly realized that she could no longer make excuses. After all, she could not tell anyone that she had fought in front of the Lingxiang Palace. If the Demon Lord knew about it, he would definitely skin her alive.
But……
But I can't let out this breath, it's really uncomfortable!
Lingxiang didn't seem to intend to let Yinghuan go, and pressed on, "Why? Tell me, don't act like I've wronged you."
"Because..." Yinghuan really didn't know how to explain. She couldn't figure out the reason after talking for a long time. She just lay on the ground and didn't dare to look at the Demon Lord.
Seeing that Yinghuan was speechless and timid, Lingxiang snorted again and pretended to step on Yinghuan's hand that was lying on the ground accidentally.
"I'm just curious. When has the rise and fall of the demon clan ever needed some bullshit auspicious omen? I'm just bored and want to raise a spirit pet, but you actually brought it to the palace to gossip about it!"
The words were spoken with such righteousness and power, like the cry of a phoenix coming closer from afar outside the palace, that Yinghuan was speechless.
But only Lingxiang herself knew that she was just talking nonsense according to the storybook.
It's just nonsense, everyone tells it, and it doesn't cost money! Anyway, it's against one's will, anyone who takes it seriously is a fool!
