Qingyao successfully infiltrated the Third Elder's side. It will be some time before he is given an important position, but given his abilities, achieving his goal is only a matter of time.
Shu Yanyin accidentally saved the fourth prince's beloved concubine, and his extraordinary abilities were discovered. He was taken in by the warlike fourth prince and went on to conquer various places.
In less than half a month, he became a capable assistant to the Fourth Prince, and was the most successful among them, having reached the point of living a life of luxury.
The most unfortunate one was You Tu. He was handsome and caught the eye of the eldest prince, who was fond of men. The prince forcibly removed him from the guards and made him a concubine.
Among the group, only Tu Shanmu, who appeared frail and kept a low profile, stayed in the Left Protector's palace, relying on his "sister" to live a life of idleness and waiting for death.
It's no exaggeration to say that the Left Protector is a womanizer. The Princess was a rare beauty, but she only monopolized the Left Protector's affections for two months.
Once the novelty wore off, the Left Protector went on to favor other beauties, leaving her behind.
The fallen beauty lost her protection in the blink of an eye, and the women who had previously harbored resentment towards the princess turned against her.
Although they were all underhanded tricks, they were still quite exhausting.
Junhuang was so annoyed that she came to Tushan Mu every day to chat and relieve her boredom.
Over the course of time, the group has gathered a great deal of usable intelligence.
Things went more smoothly than Tu Shanmu had imagined, and Qingyao successfully became the Third Elder's favorite confidant.
He knew many confidential secrets within the Demon Clan, and the Third Elder was happy to send him to do many shady things.
The demon god had a daughter who was brave and skilled in battle, and was more favored by the demon god than his sons.
Rumor has it that Princess will return from the fiery land next month, and the Demon God will personally select a husband for her when she reaches marriageable age.
In the demon realm, any man of similar age can participate in the marriage selection ceremony, regardless of race, as long as the princess is pleased.
This is the best opportunity to infiltrate the Demon God's inner circle, and Qingyao wants to give it a try.
Meanwhile, Shu Yan reported back that the Fourth Prince was very ambitious. He had long coveted the position of Demon God and was just waiting for the right opportunity to kill the Demon God and take over that supreme position.
They had just wiped out a race and returned in glory to receive the demon god's reward.
As for You Tu, let's not even mention him.
He was quite tolerant, managing to deal with the lustful Crown Prince for a long time without being harmed, but he himself took a fancy to one of the Crown Prince's male favorites.
He was so busy flirting with his male lover that he forgot what day it was. What a terrible teammate.
The fourth prince returned to the palace almost simultaneously with the princess, and the demon god, who rarely showed his face, personally hosted a welcome dinner for the two outstanding children.
The Left Protector's harem members are all incredibly troublesome; they may be beautiful, but they're not presentable.
After looking around, I remembered that the Princess Consort had an exceptional temperament, so I asked someone to dress her up and prepare her for the banquet at the palace.
Tu Shanmu changed into the appearance of an attendant and followed them into the palace.
The demon's palace was filled with a gloomy and decaying smell. Candlelight illuminated the dark palace, and shadowy figures swayed. A dancer dressed in black gauze stood in the middle, dancing gracefully. It did not feel joyful, but rather eerie and terrifying.
Tu Shanmu stood behind the Left Protector and Junhuang, holding a stone vessel in his hand, occasionally adding some wine to his "master's" cup.
The demon god's human appearance was quite refined, with a goatee, not at all like the devil that terrified humans.
To his left and right sat a strikingly handsome man and woman, none other than the currently most favored Fourth Prince and Ninth Princess.
