Chapter 474: Night of the Lunar Eclipse
Gu Liyue was secretly shocked. She had transformed herself into something more ordinary, even a little unbearably ordinary. Could it be that this demon king had a different aesthetic taste than the crowd?
Hearing the order, he had no choice but to raise his head, but lowered his eyes.
The Demon King couldn't see Gu Liyue's eyes from his perspective. Looking at this unremarkable face, he wondered why he was attracted to her just now. He even couldn't help but wonder if this maid had become a different demon.
Knowing that no demon could change demons in front of him, he rejected the conjecture in his mind.
"Come closer."
Gu Liyue walked forward mechanically and stopped three steps away from the Demon King.
The devil stretched out his hand and used his magic power to suck Gu Liyue over.
Gu Liyue felt the magic power sucking her in. Her first reaction was to resist, but then she remembered that she was now the maid of the Demon King, so she endured it and tried not to use her divine power to resist.
His hand loosely held Gu Liyue's slender neck.
"You only dared to look at me secretly, but now you don't even dare to look me in the eye?"
Gu Liyue looked up and saw a playful look on his face, but there was no malice in his expression. The hand on her neck was not strong, so it did not make her feel uncomfortable.
I just felt the devil's face slowly getting bigger.
The devil was slowly moving closer to him, and the devilish aura was blowing towards him. Gu Liyue suppressed his nausea and watched as their two faces were about to touch.
She was debating whether to resist.
If she resisted, it would be a lot of trouble if she was known to be a god here. If she didn't resist, looking at the devil, she felt that she still couldn't bear it.
The distance between the two faces was only an inch, and was still slowly getting closer. Gu Liyue had already made a hand gesture, ready to strike.
Only a delicate voice was heard outside the hall.
"Wang, I miss you."
A delicate female demon ran in from outside the hall. Seeing the situation inside the hall, she seemed to be frightened and stopped three steps away from the devil.
Then tears as big as beans began to fall down.
When the devil saw the person coming, pity flashed in his eyes, and he pushed his hand away and let go.
Gu Liyue felt like she was being pushed away. She put away the spell in her hand and walked away quickly.
The Demon King looked at the witch and extended his hand: "Jier, come here."
The woman lunged forward and landed accurately in the devil's arms. Then she thought of something and struggled to move away, but the devil held her in one hand and she couldn't get up.
"What are you doing?"
"Doesn't the king have a new love?" He glanced at Gu Liyue and found that she looked too ordinary.
This appearance made her a little surprised. In her mind, someone who could catch the eye of the devil would definitely not look like this.
I don’t know what kind of seductive tricks this maid used to attract the king.
"Nonsense, I just asked her to do something and I didn't want anyone to hear it." The devil explained.
Although she felt that the Demon King was not telling the truth, she did not believe that the Demon King would fall in love with the maid because of her appearance, but she had to be prepared for the worst.
"She is so ugly! I don't like her, let her go." She said with an eye-catching look.
Demon King: "..." He also thought it was ugly, but why did he get so close to her just now! ?
Gu Liyue: "..." Although this is the effect I want, why do I feel like the air is a little smoother! ?
The Demon King comforted the Demon Princess and said, "Okay, okay."
Then he said to Gu Liyue: "Go and do your business."
The Demon Princess nestled in the Demon King's arms, looking at Gu Liyue with extremely vicious eyes and a hint of sarcasm.
Gu Liyue looked up and realized that she had earned the hatred of the Demon Queen.
She bowed and took her leave, then quickly left the hall.
The devil watched her leave the hall, thinking that since she was serving in this side hall, it would not be difficult to see her again. He would find out more next time he saw her.
The Demon Princess felt that the Demon King was not paying attention, so she secretly decided that she must kill the maid and not keep a maid who would threaten her position in the Demon Palace.
Gu Liyue, who retreated quickly, didn't know that she was already being remembered by the two big bosses in the Demon Palace.
She walked to the edge of the barrier and called softly, "Sister Xiaolan, are you there?"
After waiting for a while, there was no movement.
She thought: Now that I'm already here, even though I've gotten some information, I might as well go to the Demon King's study to see if there's any other information.
Anyway, the Demon King is being pestered by the Demon Princess right now, so he probably won’t go back to the study.
She looked around and confirmed that no demons had noticed this place. She hid her body and sneaked into the main hall of the Demon Palace.
When passing the door connecting the side hall to the main hall, I heard the magic girl's moans and the demon king's breathing.
I secretly felt that I was right.
She quickly walked to the other side, the right side hall of the main hall, and found that there was no formation or barrier there. She walked through the door and saw a pile of documents on the desk.
She walked closer, looked at the location, and started flipping through it.
She saw a record that said that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival next year, which would be about eighteen months from now, there would be a lunar eclipse in the Demon Realm. From dark on, a lunar eclipse would appear in the sky, and the magic power of all the demons in the Demon Realm would slowly disappear until midnight, and then slowly recover after midnight.
Such a lunar eclipse night occurs once every ten thousand years in the demon world.
Gu Liyue thought back to ten thousand years ago. She had no recollection of such a thing happening! Perhaps she didn't know much about the demon world at that time.
The devil said that he couldn't wait any longer. Was he referring to this matter? Was he afraid that by then, the fairy world would easily destroy the devil world?
But is this legend true? It doesn't sound very credible.
If it is true, what if the devil turns all the gods into fallen demons? Can't he still not change the fact?
Since this world is a place where immortals, demons, monsters and humans coexist, it should be impossible for any one of them to be destroyed.
If one side is really exterminated, the balance will be broken, which will lead to the division of forces and the reshuffle of power, which will cause a bloody storm!
She turned to another document, which detailed how to make these fallen demons and their functions.
It records that as long as 999 fallen demons from the fairy world offer sacrifices to the moon in the demon world, the occurrence of a lunar eclipse can be prevented.
Gu Liyue took a breath of cold air after seeing this. There were actually so many gods who had fallen into demons.
Just as she was about to take a closer look at the details, she heard a voice coming from the main hall.
"Ji'er, go back to the palace first. I will come find you later."
Gu Liyue could only restore all the documents to their original places.
Then he quietly left the side hall and came out from another door.
She didn't know that after she left the side hall, the devil walked into the side hall vigilantly, carefully checked the documents and papers, and found that their positions had not been changed. He looked in every corner and found nothing unusual before sitting down in front of the desk.
Gu Liyue found a place without demons, appeared, and came to the barrier to call Xiaolan.
