The Demon Concubine of God

Seeing this frenzied scene, Shen Wen's heart tightened. She could ignore the others, but the king of the country could not be killed like this! No matter how incompetent or foolish this young man was, as long as he was in that position, the turbulent Great Jue Kingdom would not be so easily divided up and conquered, and the people of Great Jue Kingdom would have a few more days of peace.

Prince Rui pressed his sword against Princess Shanjin's neck, looking at the young emperor with a sinister gaze, and said, "Your Majesty, will you agree to my conditions? If Your Majesty refuses, I will send your beloved imperial aunt to the Western Paradise."

The little emperor gritted his teeth!

But there was someone with an even more sour face than him, and that was Princess Shanjin, who was being held by a sword. Her face was as black as if she were constipated, and she was speechless.

She just couldn't understand why such a large royal family always produced such mentally challenged individuals. Her father, the emperor, eventually went mad, but even then, he still cared about his public image during his episodes. How could her younger brother's brain be so utterly deranged?

With such power, able to seize all the royal family members overnight, shouldn't they force the young emperor to abdicate? Wouldn't it be better to just take control of the Great Jue Kingdom?

In such a ruthless moment, he could so easily kill his elder sister, who had been his companion since childhood, setting aside all ties. In such a domineering moment, shouldn't he have demanded that the young emperor write an abdication edict, handing over the throne to him?

To everyone's surprise, he didn't mention it at all, and instead, as if he had gone mad, demanded that the young emperor give him a woman.

woman?

She was just a lowly woman who had ruined her reputation, was not innocent, and had no skills whatsoever.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became at Prince Rui. Finally, he couldn't help but curse him through gritted teeth, "What a bastard who has his head at home!"

But as soon as I said it, I realized it was wrong. Wasn't he right at home?

What kind of brain did he leave at home? He doesn't even have a brain.

In this situation, in this tense moment where his life was threatened, the young emperor was still extremely nervous.

Although he couldn't bear to part with her, the only woman he could touch, his royal aunt was also his own flesh and blood!

He couldn't bear to see his imperial aunt killed because of his personal affair.

Time passed slowly in this tense moment, and each passing moment represented the extent of Prince Rui's patience with him.

During this brief period, the young emperor was trembling with fear, his mind preoccupied with nothing but anticipating the consequences.

But the more I didn't want the result to come, the sooner it arrived.

Prince Rui's sword had already cut a gash in Princess Shanjin's neck, and bright red blood immediately flowed out, quickly staining her snow-white collar.

"Well? I'm not lying to you. If you don't agree, your royal aunt's life will be lost because of your selfishness."

After Prince Rui finished speaking, he looked at the young emperor with a half-smile.

This time, the young emperor truly saw through his uncle's ruthless methods. His aunt was the one who loved him the most. Looking at the still bleeding neck, the young emperor was heartbroken and blurted out, "How could you do this! I think you've really gone mad. Have you forgotten that she's your own sister?"

But when he looked at Uncle Rui's face, he saw not a trace of guilt or remorse.

The young emperor was even more furious.

But then his uncle pressed him again, saying, "Are you going to agree or not? If you don't, I'll chop you up!"

The young emperor watched helplessly as Prince Rui raised his sword to mid-air, slowly bringing it down towards Princess Shanjin's neck...

"No!"

The young emperor was powerless and could only watch helplessly as the outcome he dared not even imagine happened.

Just as the sword was slowly falling, the Third Master Ji, the consort of Princess Shanjin, bumped into her forcefully at this crucial moment, knocking her down. He then shielded her with his own body, determined to block the falling sword.

On the other side, Ji Zichu had the same idea as the prince consort, but he was a step behind. However, he reacted quickly and saw that it was his father who was going to take the sword. He refused to let his father take the blow. Just as the prince consort closed his eyes and waited for death, he pushed him aside and made him take the sword instead.

At such a critical moment, just inches away from Ji Zichu, the sword was suddenly struck by something and flew away, landing on the ground beside him.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone looked toward the spot where the hidden weapon had been launched.

Then, a ghostly figure appeared by the window, which had been empty and deserted.

Upon seeing the man, everyone was filled with a mixture of surprise, joy, and fear, and they couldn't hide their feelings.

Especially Master Ji and his wife, who were eager to straighten up from their slumped positions, wishing they could stand up straight and tell this person to hurry up and rescue them.

But the man had a cold expression and showed no intention of rescuing them.

"Chu Yanqiu? You! How did you get in? You dare to come here again?"

Prince Rui was also surprised to see him, and his mind was racing with all sorts of unexpected events that might have happened.

"Where did the blood talismans I was guarding outside go? What exactly do you want by storming into my Prince Rui's residence? You've got some nerve! Aren't you afraid I'll unleash the entire blood talisman army and slaughter you?"

Chu Yanqiu was too lazy to answer any of his questions. Instead, he asked, "I don't understand. The blood talismans you made were clearly destroyed by her long ago. Why are so many blood talismans suddenly appearing again? Who is helping you? Is it Lord Shen or... someone else?"

Prince Rui didn't bother to answer his question. He looked at Ji Zichu's family on the ground, who were looking at Chu Yanqiu expectantly, and said, "You've come to rescue them? I didn't expect you to be so devoted to your third uncle's family."

Chu Yanqiu glanced at his third uncle's family on the ground again, but only subconsciously. He said, "She's coming. Are you sure you want to unleash your blood talisman army to deal with me again?"

But he only talked about it. At a moment that no one expected, the sword in his hand flashed like a snake, and with a dazzling cold light, it pierced towards Prince Rui's throat.

Prince Rui had a foundation in martial arts. When the sword came, he barely managed to dodge it. However, after dodging one move, he was overwhelmed by the attacks that followed. After only a few moves, he lost his footing and stumbled, about to fall to the ground. Just then, the swift and agile sword tip pierced towards his heart again.

Just then, a dagger flew in from the doorway. As if it had eyes, the dagger found the sword and struck it with a clang, deflecting it off its course and saving Prince Rui from the brink of death.

"stop!"

The sound rang out simultaneously with the clash of the dagger and the sword.

Chu Yanqiu and the others looked toward the sound coming from the doorway.

The Prince Rui, who had collapsed to the ground, cried out joyfully, "My beloved concubine... come and save me!"

Upon hearing the words "my beloved consort," Chu Yanqiu, who had already suppressed his murderous intent, once again turned bloodshot. His gaze towards Prince Rui was like a cold, sharp blade; if it could materialize, Prince Rui would already be a dead man.

The intense killing intent caused Chu Yanqiu's hand holding the sword to tremble, and the spiritually charged sword emitted a ferocious dragon roar.

Suddenly, a slender hand grabbed the trembling hand, suppressing the ferocious dragon roar.

"Chu Yanqiu! How are you?"

The look on Shen Wen's face when he looked at her was full of worry for him.

Chu Yanqiu, however, was unmoved. He turned his head away and snorted coldly.

Shen Wen was startled by his impending outburst. In truth, she didn't care whether Prince Rui lived or died; she was simply terrified by Chu Yanqiu's uncontrollable behavior. She couldn't understand why, in just two short days, he had returned to normal and so quickly reverted to his murderous and violent nature.

Moreover, she had a bad feeling that if this attack occurred again, Chu Yanqiu, who was in the human world, might really lose his mortal body and become a monster without humanity.

Shen Wen gently stroked Chu Yanqiu's shoulder, as if to soothe his heart.

"What's wrong? Are you angry with me?"

At this moment, Shen Wen truly appeared to outsiders as a virtuous woman who devoted herself to her husband and raising her children.

Chu Yanqiu, however, was like an angry child, stubbornly refusing to communicate with it.

Shen Wen had no choice but to coax him again.

"Are you really angry with me? Then I'll apologize, okay? But please, after I apologize, you absolutely can't ignore me again..."

Hearing its soft tone, Chu Yanqiu turned around and glared at her angrily, saying, "You actually stopped me from killing him! Do you care about him?"

Shen Wen immediately understood.

She said, "No, I really didn't mean that. I just noticed you looked unwell. As soon as I came in, all I saw was that you were upset. I didn't care about anyone else. How could you misunderstand me? What's wrong with you these past two days? Are you... are you troubled by something?"

Chu Yanqiu calmed down after hearing her explanation.

Prince Rui, who had just gotten up from the ground, only had Shen Wen in his eyes at that moment.

Prince Rui watched Shen Wen's retreating figure, but he didn't hear the conversation between the two at all. Suddenly, he came to his senses and grinned, crying like a child.

He walked over crying and grabbed Shen Wen's wrist. With his other hand, he pointed at Chu Yanqiu and said, "My dear consort, you can't get too close to this pretty boy. He's just a pawn of their Ji family's immortal ancestor. He's destined to kill the last person in the world. You should stay away from him. Who knows if he'll stab you with a sword the next moment?"

Shen Wen was pulled two steps away by Prince Rui, but his other hand was held by Chu Yanqiu, putting Shen Wen in a dilemma.

Just then, the young emperor, who had just thought it wasn't a dream, also stood up and hugged Shen Wen tightly, almost bursting into tears, crying out, "Sister Shen, you came to save me? When I suddenly saw you here, I thought I was seeing things and dreaming. I never imagined it was really you!"

Shen Wen felt incredibly disgusted as his tears and snot smeared all over her, but her hands were being held back, so she could only squint and grimace and try to bear it.

However, they didn't have to endure it for long. Chu Yanqiu and Prince Rui each freed their hands to pull the little emperor away from Shen Wen. The two of them were quite strong, and they made the little emperor squat down on the ground.
