Geng Qi: "..."
He was hoping that the thugs could tell him something that ordinary people didn't know. They spent their lives on the streets and heard and saw more than the average person. But he forgot that too much time had passed since the incident, and ordinary people have limited lifespans. What they know is passed down from generation to generation and is no longer as clear as it was when they first met them.
Then all those two calls of "big brother" were for nothing?
The Demon Lord was furious and felt very aggrieved!
The thug, who initially harbored ill intentions but later became terrified, was immobilized and left standing in place.
The spell will not disappear for a period of time. As for what he will face after it disappears, that is the result of the causes he has sown.
The two walked in silence for a while, then Geng Qi suddenly stopped and said, "I need to go back to the Demon Palace."
Rong Yu: "..."
Why do cultivators sometimes suffer from qi deviation during cultivation?
Upon hearing his question, Rong Yu immediately understood why he wanted to go back.
When people search for the truth, they all say that the demon is insane and that he implicated innocent people when he couldn't get revenge. But no one has ever asked why Zhan Wang went mad!
Geng Qi had spent a considerable amount of time with Qing Han, though not a long time. He understood Qing Han; even after becoming a demonic cultivator, he still retained his original innocence. He was the most easy to understand person in the Demon Palace.
The Demon Lord is asleep. For a hundred years, he has been raised from an infant to adult by them. Everyone in the Demon Palace thought he was the most pampered, but in reality, Qing Han was the one who was best protected.
Especially Xie Beiying.
Qinghan dared not kill anyone; he never allowed himself to be tainted by human blood.
He dealt with the filth of human nature and the malice of others perfectly.
It was as if he had built one warm wall after another in the demon palace, firmly protecting Qinghan inside.
Love doesn't arise in a moment, and what he did was definitely not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
Moreover, one's nature is hard to change. Qinghan's personality will not change because of amnesia. When he was the Prince of Zhan, he was able to cultivate and advance to the Nascent Soul stage without distraction. Why would he suddenly suffer a qi deviation?
As the two locked eyes, someone rode a sword from the direction of the palace. It was past 7 PM, and the sky was dark. The sword's light stood out clearly against the darkness. To be able to ride a sword in the imperial city, one must be acting on the emperor's orders.
The person landed precisely in front of the two, his expression excited as he cupped his hands in greeting: "We've finally found Your Highness! Your Highness, the palace banquet has begun, and I have been ordered to invite Your Highness to attend."
"Attending a banquet? What kind of banquet?"
Before Rong Yu could speak, Geng Qi frowned slightly.
Seeing that there was a young boy beside the eldest prince, and that the two were walking hand in hand with the boy in an intimate manner, the man immediately realized that the boy was a newly enrolled disciple of the Tianzhi Sect and was the eldest prince's disciple.
The young man, dressed in red with flowing black hair and bright, star-like eyes, shone brightly in the orange candlelight. However, his slightly furrowed brows seemed to reveal a hint of dissatisfaction. Just as he was about to speak, the young man stared at the eldest prince and said, "Is this meant to set you up on a blind date?"
"..."
"..."
A strange light flashed in Rong Yu's eyes, and his expression became somewhat odd.
"Your Highness, this one..."
Rong Yu nodded to him, and the man immediately fell silent, bowed, and stood aside to wait.
Geng Qi embraced Rong Yu without any hesitation, facing him directly: "What kind of palace banquet is it?"
Rong Yu said helplessly, "I originally wanted to take you there."
But then he suddenly said he wanted to go back to the Demon Palace.
Geng Qi pursed his lips and snorted.
He turned his head and glanced in the direction of the palace, meeting the astonished gaze of the person waiting to the side. He smiled slightly, then pressed his advantage and leaned closer, whispering in Rong Yu's ear, "I'll be back soon. You're not allowed to seduce anyone else!"
Finally, she gently bit his fair earlobe.
Rong Yu was slightly surprised. The person in front of him had already stepped back and was looking at him seriously.
I couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay."
Geng Qi reluctantly let go of her hand, putting her two slender arms behind her back: "Then go ahead."
His expression clearly showed his reluctance.
The palace servant waiting to the side couldn't stand it anymore. He stood behind Geng Qi and saw the boy leaning over to whisper something in his ear. The prince looked awkward, but the prince was still smiling with doting eyes. He thought to himself that it was one thing for the little disciple to act cute towards the prince, but such an important event as attending the banquet couldn't be delayed. How could he be so insensible!
"Your Highness, His Majesty and the dukes and ministers are still waiting!"
Rong Yu then said to the person in front of him, "Let's go back."
Geng Qi said, "I'll watch you leave."
"..."
Rong Yu smiled again, patted his half-height head, and turned around to walk past him.
Seeing the two men approach, Geng Qi slipped away.
The palace servants searching for the boy initially thought he would follow them, but after walking for a while, they saw no one following. They subconsciously looked back and saw that the candlelight on the street behind them was still on, but the boy in red was no longer there. They looked around but couldn't see anyone.
Where did they go in such a short time?
He wanted to ask, but when he turned around, he was taken aback.
The man in the main hall ahead remained expressionless, but a hint of coldness lingered between his brows. The smile on his lips had vanished without a trace, a stark contrast to the gentle and doting manner he displayed when speaking with the young man.
He calmly withdrew his gaze and said coldly, "Let's go."
The question was abruptly swallowed back; the palace servant quickly bowed his head and whispered, "Yes."
A red light seemed to flash across the night sky, but the golden-armored guards on the city gate were completely unaware. Geng Qi left the city alone and disappeared a thousand miles away in an instant.
Before the eldest prince entered the palace banquet hall, the Demon Lord had already entered the Demon Realm. Looking at the Demon Palace, which he had been away from for so long, from afar, he saw only darkness and the bright moon in the sky, which added a layer of soft light to the entire Demon Palace. When he stepped on the ground, he even felt a sense of closeness.
