Yin Changling was surprised that she thought of him that way, and he was both amused and exasperated. He didn't understand. Did she really think of him as such a bloodthirsty and murderous person?
It's just that Yin Changling rarely goes out to observe the people's conditions. He's cooped up in the palace all day and has no idea what people outside are saying about him.
Especially after being instigated by someone with ulterior motives like the Marquis of Bei, who spread various rumors, his already bad reputation was further damaged.
However, Yin Changling is unaware of this at present, not that he is completely unaware, but that he doesn't care much about his reputation.
After all, he has a lot to do every day, so he has no time to pay attention to gossip. As long as no one is talking about it in front of him, he doesn't care at all.
"Xi'er, do you really see me as such a bloodthirsty person?"
"Otherwise, the folk rhymes are all about your murders, and now children are all afraid of you!"
Tu Shan Lingxi perked up when she started talking about this, and she talked on and on. There was no other reason than that Tu Shan Lingxi's ears were too good.
When a powerful demon cultivates to a certain level, she can clearly hear sounds within a radius of 500 miles. She even overheard many people's private conversations.
Some complained that money was hard to earn this year, some complained about the power of the government, and some complained that they couldn't even afford meat...
But none of these were as damaging as the threat of "If you cry again, I'll throw you into the palace and have you beheaded." Tu Shan Lingxi knew that the tyrant's reputation had already taken root in people's hearts.
Everyone was afraid; it wasn't just the little fox who was scared!
Tu Shan Lingxi recalled the discussions she had overheard about the tyrant. They didn't even dare to mention the word "tyrant," and only referred to the one in the palace.
So, if someone can scare a child into crying incessantly, wouldn't they themselves be trembling with fear?
Tu Shan Lingxi looked at the hand that was pinching her chin, and whether it was just her imagination or not, she could faintly smell the blood on it.
"Let go of me, Yin Changling—"
Yin Changling originally didn't intend to do anything, but seeing Tu Shan Lingxi's struggle and evasion, a hint of displeasure flashed through his heart. He didn't like being disliked by a woman.
So he made a bold move that directly led to a qualitative leap in their relationship.
"Xi'er—"
Yin Changling looked at her red lips and suddenly kissed her fiercely. It was originally just a spiteful act, but as the temperature gradually rose, his rationality began to crumble.
Their breaths mingled, and the distance between them was almost nonexistent. Yin Changling's large hand was already gripping Tu Shan Lingxi's small waist.
Yin Changling found the beauty increasingly delightful, especially her soft lips, sweet breath, and the breath filling her nostrils, all of which made him more and more engrossed.
Tu Shan Lingxi's teeth were initially a little sore from the impact of his knocking, but gradually, she was also captivated by the man's increasingly skillful actions, and her breath was completely taken away from her.
"Stop—"
"No, Xi'er needs to concentrate."
Yin Changling was slightly displeased with Tu Shan Lingxi's attempt to dodge. He took a small bite, and then led the girl back into the throes of passion.
Tu Shan Lingxi felt weak all over, afraid that she would fall, and could only helplessly cling to the man's shoulders.
When had Yin Changling ever tasted this feeling? This was the first time he had ever been attracted to a woman, the one he had longed for, and she was right there in his arms, making him unable to resist!
After a long time, until Tu Shan Lingxi could no longer breathe and her mind completely stopped working, the man finally released her.
Yin Changling released Tu Shanlingxi, but the beauty was already weak and powerless. As soon as she was released, she softly fell into the man's arms.
"ah!"
Tu Shan Lingxi was afraid of falling to the ground. Although human skin was beautiful, it was too fragile. A slight pinch would leave a mark on it.
Therefore, if she were to fall hard, she would definitely be badly injured. Tu Shan Lingxi closed her eyes in fear, so dizzy that she forgot to use her magic.
"Xi'er!"
Yin Changling had no idea that this little guy could so easily throw himself upside down. If he hadn't managed to pull him back at the last minute, things would have been much worse.
"Did you hurt yourself anywhere? Let me see."
Yin Changling was extremely nervous. He looked Tu Shanlingxi up and down, afraid that she might be injured somewhere that he hadn't noticed.
His actions further confused Tu Shan Lingxi, whose mind was already not very clear.
"Don't move! I'm dizzy!"
Tu Shan Lingxi protested softly. She was truly terrified of this great demon king. How could someone be so rude and so strong!
She raised her little paw and retaliated by hitting him hard, but unfortunately she missed his face and only hit his arm.
"Hiss—, Xi'er is a woman, and she used such force. Did she scare her to death?"
Yin Changling frowned slightly. He felt that this little one was completely different from ordinary women. Where did this freak come from?
"No, you're the one who made me dizzy, that's why I hit you. Humph, you're turning the tables on me! You hurt the fox, but you've hurt my heart!"
In a moment of impulsiveness, Tu Shan Lingxi blurted out her usual self-designation: "fox." Wasn't that just walking right into a trap?
Fortunately, I managed to stop myself at the crucial moment, otherwise I would have exposed my true colors!
"What is Xi'er saying?"
Yin Changling vaguely felt that he had missed something important, but Xi'er was speaking too fast and he really couldn't keep up.
He hadn't heard what Tu Shan Lingxi had just said, so he frowned and asked again.
But the little fox had finally managed to fool the man, so how could she possibly walk right into his trap again? She could only laugh it off and say a few casual words.
"It was you, oh yes, you almost made me fall!"
After stammering through her words, Tu Shan Lingxi suddenly realized, "Why did this person just kiss me like that? We're not even that close!"
"Did you just kiss me, you bad boy?!"
Tu Shan Lingxi knew perfectly well that only her husband could do this, only the Imperial Preceptor could kiss her; this person had completely broken the rules!
She glared at the man resentfully, but her eyes, filled with flirtatious intent, were not frightening at all; instead, they seemed more like a silent seduction.
Only Tu Shan Lingxi's words were completely ignored by the man because of her sticky, whiny tone.
On the contrary, after the woman's reminder, Yin Changling's heart burned even more, and he even had a faint hope that he could marry the woman into the palace as soon as possible.
Yin Changling was so impatient that he blurted out his true thoughts without any preamble, catching the little fox completely off guard!
"Is Xi'er married yet?"
"Um?"
