Chapter 743: What did you do to my fiancée?
The main hall of the Demon Palace.
Qiu Yu, the progenitor, and Huai Ci sat in the guest seats.
Several demon maids respectfully served the two of them hot tea.
Ancestor Qiuyu took the teacup, raised his eyes to look at Jiang Bai standing to the side, took a sip of the tea, and asked slowly, "How is Li Yuan now?"
With a forced smile, he said, "Thanks to you, His Majesty's health is much weaker than before!"
Qiu Yu, the progenitor, paused in his tea-drinking motion. Huai Ci, sitting next to him, immediately exploded: "What do you mean? The great demon was poisoned by the Flame Poison, not the progenitor's fault!"
"Now that the Ancestor is willing to come to the Demon Realm to heal the Great Demon, you not only fail to be grateful, but also have to criticize the Ancestor with veiled sarcasm?! What a tactless subordinate!"
Faced with Huai Ci's dissatisfaction, Jiang Bai remained unfazed, showing no sign of feeling that he had said anything wrong: "If it weren't for the effort spent searching for this person, Your Majesty's internal fire poison might have been cured long ago."
Huai Ci gritted her teeth, put her hands on her hips, and glared angrily at Jiang Bai: "Isn't it because the Great Demon threatened the Ancestor to demolish the Fufeng Spring's herb garden? Otherwise, I wouldn't have been hiding from you for so long! Blame your Great Demon!"
A deep purple light flashed in his white eyes, and a murderous intent rose within him. How dare a mere apprentice medicine boy speak so disrespectfully to the Venerable One…
Qiu Yu, the progenitor, coughed lightly: "Huai Ci."
Hearing the patriarch's call, Huai Ci pouted, snorted softly, and sat back down in her chair, looking sullen.
Ancestor Qiu Yu sighed and said to Jiang Bai, "In short, let me examine the fire poison within Li Yuan's body first..."
Before he could finish speaking, he caught a glimpse of two figures walking in from outside the hall—
The man wore a dark robe with gold embroidery, and a black outer garment draped over his shoulders. His long, black hair was untied and casually draped over his shoulders. He exuded nobility, yet also possessed extreme power and domineering aura. His pair of purple eyes were deep and vast, as if they could contain the entire starry sky.
The person holding his hand tightly was another girl dressed in a clean, plain robe. Her black hair was tied into a long scorpion braid that hung down her back. Her features were particularly delicate, with a high, straight nose, tender lips that were red without any makeup, and eyebrows and eyes that were like paintings. Her eyes were lively and bright, like obsidian shining in the night sky.
Upon seeing the girl, Qiu Yu's expression froze, and the hand holding the teacup loosened, causing it to shatter on the ground with a crack.
The next second, Qiu Yu Ancestor immediately stood up and strode to Ye Fei, looking her over with extreme shock: "You, you are..."
Before Qiu Yu Ancestor could finish speaking, Li Yuan's eyes darkened, and he pulled Ye Fei behind him, using his body to avoid Qiu Yu Ancestor's gaze.
Ancestor Qiuyu was stunned for a moment, and Li Yuan said in a deep voice, "Qiuyu, what are you going to do to my fiancée?"
Every word she spoke carried a deep sense of danger, and Qiu Yu, the progenitor, finally realized: his fiancée?!
The great demon Li Yuan has actually fallen in love?!
No! That's not the point!
Qiu Yu Ancestor turned his gaze to Ye Fei behind Li Yuan again, and asked unwillingly, "Miss, haven't we met somewhere before?"
Ye Fei was somewhat confused and couldn't help but secretly examine the man in front of her, who was dressed in a moon-white robe. He wore a bamboo-green veiled hat with a thin veil hanging straight down from the brim, revealing an exceptionally handsome face behind the veil.
After trying hard to recall for a while, Ye Fei shook her head: "I don't know you."
