Chapter 8 Bloody Immortal Hero

Although Youdu belongs to the Demon Realm, monks and mortals live together, and mortals are the majority in the city, so a lot of mortal customs are retained.

As the July Lantern Festival approaches, Youdu gradually becomes more lively.

Nan Yan also planned to take advantage of this rare opportunity to start her map of the world.

When the maid came to the bedroom to deliver the message, Nan Yan knew the man's awkward thoughts. He probably wanted to see her, but unfortunately he couldn't bring himself to do it.

She was originally still struggling with how to fool people, but the system informed her that a demon guard had brought back news of He Nanwan's existence in the human world, and would report it to Chu Liyue soon.

So she did not refuse and changed into a clean red dress as usual, imitating He Nanwan's outfit, and prepared to go to the main hall to invite people to enjoy the lanterns all over the city.

…

On the other side, just as the maid walked out of the hall, a demon guard hurried over and brought back news that He Nanwan was in the human world.

Chu Liyue was originally surprised when he learned that she was in the human world, but after the demon guard reported the whole incident to him.

The expression on this man's face could no longer be described as ugly; his face was as dark as ink, and it looked as if he was about to start a killing spree in the next second.

Chu Liyue lowered his eyes, his gaze was cold and frightening, "You mean, in order to avoid my pursuit, the two of them fled all the way to the mortal world, and now they are preparing to get married in the mortal world, and from now on they will be an ordinary and loving couple in the mortal world?"

The demon guard was so frightened that he trembled, not even daring to raise his head. He replied tremblingly, "Yes, yes."

Chu Liyue raised his hand and overturned the desk in front of him. The books and ancient paintings on the desk fell to the ground in an instant. "This is ridiculous. Do you think I'm dead? Getting married! What kind of marriage is this?"

"How can it be justified that the wife whom I married formally is getting married to another man without my knowledge?" At this moment, Chu Liyue's anger was rising, and his eyes were suppressing the anger that was about to burst out.

"They can't!"

He really didn't expect that He Nanwan would choose to marry Ye Qingsang. It was obviously him, the proper husband who should marry her.

What is this now?

He Nanwan married Ye Qingsang, and they became a loving couple in the future, but he could only stay with a fake, a substitute. It didn't matter that she looked exactly like him, but she was not what he wanted from the beginning to the end.

So he was the only one who was kept in the dark and fooled around?

How could he swallow such a tone?

Chu Liyue sneered. Ye Qingsang was really good at making plans. He was the one who interfered with the replacement marriage and now he had coaxed He Nanwan into marrying him. If they wanted to be a loving and ordinary couple in the world, they had to ask him if he agreed.

Don’t even think about it!

When Nan Yan walked into the main hall, Chu Liyue was overturning the table in front of him with great force. The She inkstone engraved with a lotus relief rolled twice on the ground and landed right at her feet.

...the location is just right.

When Chu Liyue looked up and saw Nan Yan coming in, his eyes immediately became cold and sharp. Suddenly, he suddenly thought of another possibility. This woman... already knew it, right?

Did she already know He Nanwan's whereabouts, so she has been stalling here?

The more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong...

The more Chu Liyue doubted, the more angry he felt in his heart burn.

When people are angry, they will not listen to any advice. However, once they determine a possibility, they will make excuses for it and subconsciously look for reasonable evidence and logic for that possibility.

So in his opinion, everything He Nanyan did during this period was to prevent him from finding He Nanwan.

Her marriage into Youdu was all a scam. If this scam succeeded, she would be the Demon Queen of Youdu in the future. Even if it failed, she successfully delayed him and bought time for the two of them to get married.

The funny thing is that he was the only one who was kept in the dark.

Chu Liyue grabbed Nan Yan's hand fiercely and stepped forward to question, "You He family members have colluded long ago, right? This is a scam from the beginning to the end. You, a fake, were married to Youdu to deceive me, and He Nanwan took the opportunity to escape with others."

Nan Yan was startled by his sudden anger. She didn't seem to understand what was going on. She looked at him in a daze, "I don't know what you are talking about..."

He looked down and saw the frightened look on the woman's face. He felt even more mocking and angry. "Still lying to me!"

"You've been lying to me from the beginning to the end. You said you lost your memory just to fool me into not pursuing your whereabouts of He Nanwan. In fact, you remember everything."

"Everything you do and say every day is just to delay time so that He Nanwan and Ye Qingsang can get married, right?"

Nan Yan's face turned pale, and her eyes were a little flustered, but she still shook her head and denied it, "What are you talking about? I really don't know anything about the amnesia... I just want to make you happy and not be so sad..."

"Make me happy?"

Chu Liyue sneered, "Oh, who do you think you are? I already knew you were pretending to have amnesia. Seeing you act like a clown every day and imitate He Nanwan's every move, it's simply ridiculous!"

Hearing this, Nan Yan's body suddenly stiffened, and then she raised her eyes in disbelief, tears in her eyes almost overflowing, "You little idiot..."

These words that stripped and trampled on a person's self-esteem almost made Nan Yan unsteady on her feet. Her body trembled and swayed for a moment, and her lips were bitten so hard that they almost bled.

Chu Liyue met her red eyes and sneered, "Yes, that's right, you are just a little clown."

"You think you're pretending well, but I'm just bored and watching a show. Since you want to act, I'll just watch it for fun. But your acting is so bad that you can't even pretend to be real. You can't even match one finger of your sister. You're a fake from beginning to end."

Calculation, this is all calculation!

After saying this, Nan Yan's tears fell directly. She bit her lips until they were bloodless, her face was as pale as paper, and her heart seemed to be torn apart by pain.

"You're so annoyed with me..."

Chu Liyue violently threw her hand away, his eyes becoming fierce, "You were never the one I wanted to marry."

He knew that he was just venting his anger, taking out all his dissatisfaction with He Nanwan on the man in front of him, but who told her to lie to him? It was a scam from the moment she married him.

Nan Yan's fingers trembled slightly. She clenched her fingers tightly to try to regain some strength, but it was in vain. At this moment, the expression on her face was full of indescribable fragility and paleness.

Seeing her expression, Chu Liyue suddenly felt a slight choking sensation in his chest, as if he had been pricked by a needle, which was fleeting. He quickly ignored the slight pain, forced himself to suppress the discomfort in his heart, and forced himself not to look at her.

Nan Yan lowered her eyes, and it seemed as if all the strength in her body had been drained away. She exuded an extremely depressed mood, "Okay, since... the Demon Lord hates me so much, then I will just leave. I will never bother the Demon Lord again in the future..."

Before she could finish her words, Chu Liyue stared at her fiercely and said, "No, you can't leave." He didn't even notice the panic that flashed through his mind at that moment, and then he said something even more cruel.

"I want you to marry Ye Qingsang. Since you can marry once, you can do it again. I will never let He Nanwan marry Ye Qingsang."

He knew how vicious his words were. They were like a sharp dagger that stabbed into the other person's heart without hesitation, leaving him bleeding.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Nan Yan's body trembled even more violently, and tears fell like beads from a broken string.

She raised her eyes, but found that everything in front of her was blurry. She could only stretch out her weak hands to grab his sleeves, "Do you know what you are saying? How could you..."

"We are already married. I am your wife now. How can you... let me marry someone else?"

"If you hate me, I can leave... I will go far away and never appear in front of you again, but... please don't be like this, okay?"

Looking at Nan Yan like this, Chu Liyue suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and felt a little reluctant, but then he was immediately overwhelmed by the anger he felt when he learned that He Nanwan and Ye Qingsang were married.

He lost sight of her and said in a cold voice, "No, the person I want to marry has never been you. I will pay back every bit of the insults you, the He family, and Ye Qingsanjia have inflicted on me. Since you want to be a substitute so much, I will grant your wish."

At this moment, in his heart, He Nanwan's position still prevailed after all. He was reluctant to hurt his sweetheart, so he vented all his anger on the person in front of him.

Suddenly he recalled what happened a few days ago. The woman said she loved him so confidently that he couldn't help but want to believe her. There was even a moment when he...

Thinking of those words, Chu Liyue's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he stared at her straight.

"Didn't you say you like me? If so, why wouldn't you do even this little thing for me?"

Nan Yan subconsciously took a few steps back. She couldn't even cry when she saw the person in front of her. There was only sadness and despair in her heart. "How could you..."

She shook her head, "I won't agree to your request..."

But how could Chu Liyue, who was in a state of obsession, let her go? Looking at her distraught appearance, while pleasure surged in his heart, he also felt an inexplicable discomfort, but he quickly ignored it.

Chu Liyue sneered, "Oh, you think I'm asking for your opinion. I've never failed to get what I want. I'm just telling you."

Just like when they staged the substitutionary marriage, who asked for his consent? They were just playing him to their own devices.

Nan Yan's body swayed uncontrollably, and she staggered back a step, all the way to the wooden frame, where she held onto it and managed to stand steadily.

She suddenly looked up at Chu Liyue, tears welling up in her eyes, but a very sad smile appeared on her face, "The Demon Lord wants me to marry... Ye Qingsang, just to humiliate him and me?"

Chu Liyue looked at her like that and felt inexplicably sorry for her, but he quickly said, "So what?"

"So the Lord hates me so much..." She bit her lips so hard that blood was coming out.

However, Nan Yan didn't care and seemed to feel no pain.

But after receiving this answer, the bright eyes that used to be filled with warmth and smiles suddenly dimmed, as if they had lost the light and became silent all of a sudden.

Nan Yan suddenly reached out her hand to wipe away the tears in her eyes. She turned her head away so that the other party could not see the expression on her face at the moment, and then said lightly, "I can agree to the Demon Lord's request."

"But I also have a request."

Nan Yan exhaled lightly, and the tears that she had just wiped away suddenly filled her eyes again, but she didn't care. Instead, she continued, "I want the Demon Lord to accompany me for the whole day, only this one day. I don't want to be a substitute for anyone else. I want to spend the whole day as He Nan Yan."

"After that, I will be obedient and marry Ye Qingsang honestly. Is that okay?"

After all, she gave him a calm smile.

Chu Liyue felt as if something was blocking his chest, making him feel uncomfortable.

He looked at Nan Yan's red eyes again. There seemed to be no expectation in them. He was stunned. He didn't know why, but he suddenly heard his own voice agreeing, "Okay."
