Chapter 75 Mud in the Ditch
Gu Xuancang enjoyed the attention of everyone.
After Xue Chen appeared, it quietly disappeared.
It was the first time that the demon cultivators saw a boy as young as Xue Chen, and they joined the Demon Realm with confidence.
The celebration banquet is over.
Xue Chen walked towards Gu Xuancang with a smile, "Deputy Sect Leader Gu, are you adapting well to the Demon Realm?"
Gu Xuancang's face froze.
I hate the word "deputy" the most in my life.
Then he said sarcastically: "I can't adapt as quickly as Xue Jizi."
The young man didn't seem angry. He just chuckled briefly and said, "Please trouble Deputy Sect Leader Gu to take me to the dungeon."
"Do you have a token?" Gu Xuancang deliberately made things difficult. "Xue Zhizi also knows that the dungeon is not for casual..."
The words were not finished.
An inky black token with flames appeared before his eyes.
His expression became even uglier, but he didn't dare to disobey the Demon Lord. "Xue Zhizi, follow me."
Xue Chen nodded indifferently.
The thought of meeting his good brother, the good king of Tianfeng Kingdom.
He couldn't stop the excitement in his eyes.
The dungeon is in the deepest part of the Demon Realm.
As soon as he entered, he smelled a foul odor. Xue Chen raised his arms to cover his mouth and nose in disgust.
"Why did Xue Zhizi join the Demon Realm?"
He couldn't understand how the seemingly unambitious and weak boy could have suddenly entered the demonic realm.
"It's for power."
He leisurely surveyed the dungeon's layout.
"What? You want to be the Demon Lord?" Gu Xuancang found it ridiculous and inserted the key into the prison door.
"Demon Lord?"
He shook his head and said calmly, "There's more to it than that."
Gu Xuancang paused and looked back at Xue Chen. The other's dark pupils showed no emotion and looked even scarier than a corpse puppet.
Is this the state a teenager should be in?
He felt a little scared, but also felt unhappy that he, over fifty years old, had lost to such a young man.
He said it to save face.
"The people imprisoned inside are the Tianfeng royal family."
Xue Chen ignored him and walked straight to the deepest part of the dungeon.
A dark and damp dungeon.
Xue Heng kicked his concubine impatiently, "Waste, what use do I have to you?"
"I can't even seduce a mere demon cultivator."
"Waste, waste! Bitch!"
"Your Majesty, I was wrong..."
Several women huddled together, kowtowing and apologizing repeatedly.
"I will kill you--" Xue Heng violently grabbed the woman's neck and lifted her up.
The woman couldn't breathe.
A lazy and cold voice sounded outside the cell door.
"I haven't seen you for many years, and my brother is still so fond of bullying the weak and so full of hostility."
Xue Heng froze and turned around hesitantly.
"Is it you?"
"You half-human, half-demon bastard!"
He had always been arrogant in front of Xue Chen all his life, and even after being imprisoned, his temper had not changed at all.
Xue Chen has always known how dirty and despicable the blood of this group of people is, and he was not surprised at their behavior.
He took out a pill from his storage ring.
Open the cell door.
Just like Xue Heng pinched the concubine, one hand pinched Xue Heng until his veins bulged.
Xue Chen threw the pill into his mouth.
"Hey...Xue...what did you give me to eat?"
He raised his head and laughed, a smile emanating from his throat. "A feeling that makes you want to neither live nor die..."
"...the poisonous insect."
"It's called the Corrupted Heart Leech. It will burrow through your skin and flesh into your bloodstream, secreting a foul-smelling slurry. Your blood will stink unbearably. Then it will burrow into your bone marrow, gnawing away at it inch by inch, and slowly corroding your internal organs until..."
"Every inch of you is rotten."
"You bastard!" Xue Heng put his hand down his throat and retched. "Give me the antidote!"
There was a sharp pain in my arm.
"Ah--" When the concubines saw Xue Heng's arm, disgust flashed across their frightened eyes.
It's really disgusting.
Half of the arm was eaten to the bone.
Rotten flesh and blood hung sporadically on the bones.
"Who allowed you to despise me?" Xue Heng stared at the group of women fiercely.
Then he pounced on Xue Chen madly.
Kneel down on the ground.
"Please, give me the antidote. I was wrong. Father is dead. Tianfeng is yours. Considering we are brothers..."
"Give me the antidote, please, ah!!!"
He rolled on the ground in pain.
Xue Chen looked down at him condescendingly, "Father should be thankful that he died early, otherwise he would be even more miserable than you."
"Oh, by the way, you won't die immediately. The rotten heart leeches will eventually gnaw at your heart..."
He smiled and looked up, thinking for a moment, "Well... you probably have two months left to live. Enjoy your last days."
"My...Royal Brother..."
The young man turned around and left with satisfaction, leaving Xue Heng crawling on the ground and shouting and screaming.
Out of the dungeon.
He took out the token and said to the demon cultivator guarding the gate, "The women of the Tianfeng royal family, release them all."
"As ordered, protect the law!"
Xue Chen actually didn’t care whether those people lived or died, but he knew that Ning Shengsheng liked him like this.
Change your mind.
Xue Heng huddled alone in the dark dungeon until his life was completely over.
It's quite interesting too.
…
Returning to Daning from the Demon Realm, Xue Chen stood outside the Chaoxia Palace.
Although his revenge had been taken, he was not very happy. He even felt worse than playing chess or drinking tea with her.
He looked down at his hands.
Today he has been stained with such dirty blood.
She probably doesn't like it.
After all, she is such a pure and kind person.
Xue Chen pursed his thin lips slightly, and his messy hair covered his eyes.
It doesn't matter.
Just take a sneak peek.
"Kick higher, Zaoni!"
"How stupid! Kick this way!"
A young girl's cheerful and clear laughter came from the yard. She was playing shuttlecock with the maid.
The smile was as dazzling as usual.
"Hey, Princess, Xue Zhizi is outside."
Sponge cake carefully discovered.
Ning Shengsheng turned her head and could no longer see the young man. Only the corner of a green robe flashed by behind the door.
Xue Chen fled in panic.
Her smile was so bright that it made him look like the most disgusting mud in the gutter. He couldn't let her see it.
He just wanted to hide.
Xue Chen stumbled back to the Pear Garden.
Sitting under the tree in a daze.
Xuetuan walked over with cat-like steps and found that his master was crying. He jumped onto Xue Chen's knees.
"Meow……?"
The boy remained unmoved, half of his face buried behind his hands, tears slowly flowing out from between his fingers.
Xuetuan didn't understand why he was crying.
But it knows that there is someone who can help its master.
It jumped over the wall and ran towards the Chaoxia Palace.
"Huh? Why is Xuetuan here?"
Ning Shengsheng was drinking water because she was hot after playing shuttlecock.
"Meow~"
Xuetuan pulled at her skirt and pointed at Liyuan with his cat claws.
"Xue Chen is looking for me?"
"Meow!"
"Then can I go in the evening?" Ning Shengsheng picked up Xuetuan and touched its back with a smile.
"Aww~"
Xuetuan jumped down and waited for her at the door.
"It seems like it's urgent." Ning Shengsheng turned around and instructed Songgao, "We're having roasted lamb tonight, so get ready."
As soon as he finished speaking, he followed Xuetuan to the Pear Garden.
Push open the gate.
The young man was seen curled up under a tree, his face buried in his sleeves, his shoulders slightly hunched.
She hurried over.
"Xue Wuyin, what's wrong with you?"
Gently pushed his shoulder.
Unexpectedly, the low whimpering sound stopped.
Next second.
She was hugged tightly by the boy.
