Qi Jue chased Fa Shu into an ordinary forest. Seeing Fa Shu suddenly lose direction, he understood that it was a formation set by Fang Jingqiu. Unexpectedly, when he just touched a dead tree, he was suddenly pressed to the ground and a whip was wrapped around his neck and tightened.
"A fallen demon? They think more and more highly of themselves. Are they sending a fallen demon to die?" After saying this, he was about to strangle Qi Jue to death.
A feeling of suffocation came over him, Qi Jue moved his fingers slightly, and he disappeared in front of them in an instant.
Just as they were about to give chase, they received a message asking everyone to assemble.
After Qi Jue escaped, he touched his neck and felt a little scared. Since he became a demon, he rarely encountered people who could threaten his life. He was afraid that the demons there were conservatives who supported the young son of the Demon Lord.
Thinking of this, he snorted softly, not understanding why they would support someone they didn't even know was still alive.
But since Fang Jingqiu fled to the territory of the conservatives, he must be related to the one in the Demon Palace.
Wang Qian was leaning on the throne bored. When he heard that a fallen demon had killed all the guards along the way to see him, he immediately became interested and quickly asked someone to bring the fallen demon in. He put the tip of his tongue against the roots of his teeth and felt an itch in his throat. He was very much looking forward to the visitor. If this person was extremely bored, he wouldn't mind biting his throat to let him experience the pleasure of death.
Qi Jue walked into the hall carrying the head of a guard, blood splattering all the way. Upon seeing Wang Qian, he casually tossed the head aside and said, "I told them not to stop me, but no one listened. To see Lord Demon, I had no choice but to fight my way here."
Hearing this, Wang Qian raised the corner of his lips and said, "You have killed so many of me. If I don't like what you say, you will become like them in a while."
The maid who was fanning herself beside Wang Qian quietly raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Wang Qian's finger. It was the head that Qi Jue had just thrown out. She was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
Before Wang Qian could say anything, two demons emerged from the darkness, covered the maid's mouth in an instant and took her out of the hall. Only a shrill scream was heard from outside the hall.
Qi Jue's expression was indifferent, as if the item thrown out was just an insignificant one. He said, "Since Lord Demon has said so, then I will speak frankly. Those conservatives stole something from me, and I would like to ask Lord Demon to get it back for me."
"You're actually connected to that bunch of old stubborn people. You're no ordinary demon." Wang Qian's eyes were filled with danger. The magic power in his hand solidified and grabbed Qi Jue's neck. He said, "Do you know where those rats are hiding now?"
Qi Jue's face flushed red as he uttered words with difficulty, "You know... that even though I've fallen... into the devil's way, the cultivator's... magic can still... be used."
"Tell me the location of those rats, and I will spare your life. If you don't--" Wang Qian's voice stopped abruptly. Qi Jue felt the shackles around his neck suddenly loosened. Wang Qian, who was on the throne, rushed to the door of the palace like a gust of wind and hugged the newcomer's waist like a young swallow throwing itself into his arms.
"Uncle, are you no longer angry with me now that you're willing to come to the hall?" Wang Qian's voice was filled with joy at seeing someone. Qi Jue turned around and saw a handsome man push Wang Qian aside and walk into the hall. He stopped in front of him and asked, "Which sect did you learn from before you fell into demonism?"
Qi Jue hadn't expected the visitor to ask him this question. Before he could answer, Wang Qian kicked him to the ground and angrily scolded him, "Why are you dithering when your uncle asks you a question? Hurry up and tell me!"
Shi Hanfeng looked at him quietly, his eyes filled with desire and ambition. When he heard Qi Jue say that he was a disciple of Tian Yun Zong, a smile appeared on his lips and he said, "It's you, after all."
Wang Qian looked at the two of them with a puzzled look on his face, and then he heard Shi Hanfeng ask someone to prepare a room for Qi Jue to live in. Immediately, alarm bells started ringing in his heart.
After Qi Jue was taken away, Wang Qian narrowed his eyes and asked, "How come I never knew my uncle had any dealings with this fallen demon?"
Shi Hanfeng glanced at him and snorted softly, "We haven't had any contact. It's just that you don't know that over a hundred years ago, this man's name was so famous that everyone in the Demon Realm knew him. He had strange habits and loved to dress like a woman to attract bees and butterflies everywhere. Back then, many people in the Demon Realm were bewitched by his appearance and brutally killed by him. The Demon Realm was much quieter after his disappearance, but recently, many demon corpses have appeared in Tianyun Sect. It's hard not to suspect him of being the culprit."
"In that case, uncle should just kill him to vent his anger. Why should he live in the demon world?" Wang Qian said indifferently.
Hearing this, Shi Hanfeng sneered and said, "How can he still be so stupid even after sitting on the throne? This man was once an inner disciple of the Tianyun Sect and knows a lot about the sect's shortcomings. If we want to conquer the Xiuxian world, we must take down the three major sects. Having him around will provide us with a lot of convenience."
"So, uncle values the fallen demon more."
A cold voice sounded behind Shi Hanfeng. Wang Qian's face darkened. Shi Hanfeng raised his hand and grasped his shoulder, comforting him, "My uncle said that Qian'er and I are family. In this world, we can only rely on each other. I believe Qian'er won't let his emotions ruin things, right?"
Wang Qian took his hand and put it on his face. He seemed to be pleased by Shi Hanfeng's words, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "For my uncle, I can do anything."
After Qi Jue was sent to the guest room, he lowered his eyes and stared at the patterns on the floor, thinking about his current situation. He had heard before that Shi Hanfeng pushed the adopted orphan to the throne because he could not practice. The conservatives could not accept that the position of the Demon Lord was inherited by someone with impure blood, so they began to look for the whereabouts of the Demon Lord's young son.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sneer at the demon clan's mess. If it weren't for the fact that the demon world was despised by the Heavenly Dao and could cut off Sui Lin's way of investigating Fang Jingqiu through the Heavenly Dao, he wouldn't want to come to this godforsaken place. He just thought that Fang Jingqiu was unfamiliar with the demon world and no one would help her. Who would have thought that she actually hid in the conservative faction's territory.
Thinking about the demons encountered in the conservative faction, they were so powerful, but they didn't become the Demon Lord themselves and went to find the Demon Lord's young son whose life or death was unknown. They must be crazy.
Sensing the undisguised demonic energy fluctuations outside the door, no one else except Wang Qian could behave so blatantly in the Demon Palace.
After knowing who was outside, Qi Jue opened the door and asked, "What brings you here, Master Demon?"
Wang Qian looked at Qi Jue's appearance, and thought of what Shi Hanfeng said about the man in front of him who liked to dress up as a woman to deceive people. He couldn't help but wonder whether his uncle had any other purpose in keeping Qi Jue besides using him.
"Although my uncle has kept you here, you are not allowed to approach me for any reason, and you are not allowed to dress like a woman in the Demon Palace. If I find out, you will lose your life." Wang Qian threatened.
Qi Jue watched Wang Qian come to the front of the house and say a few irrelevant words, then turn around and leave. He couldn't help but curse in his heart that Wang Qian was simply sick.
