The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

The owner of the dark chamber looked at the big pit with lingering fear. If he had not dodged quickly, he would have been seriously injured.

Even though there was such a big commotion upstairs, people downstairs were still singing and dancing, as if they heard nothing.

This is because there is a soundproofing array on the top floor. No matter what happens upstairs, it cannot be heard below.

The owner of the Dark Pavilion and Chi raised their heads and looked in astonishment at the man in red who suddenly appeared in the room. They saw nine fluffy fiery red tails waving behind him, while Su Qingning was held safely in his arms.

The man in red was none other than Su Qingning's contracted beast, Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Mythical beast?!"

The owner of the Dark Pavilion and Chi exclaimed in surprise. They had never imagined that Su Qingning was actually a summoner and had even contracted a divine beast!

"Hmph! Two ignorant humans, I'm not a fucking divine beast!" Nine-Tailed Fox cursed unhappily.

However, the owner of the Dark Pavilion seemed not to have heard what Kyuubi said next. He only heard the other party's first words scolding him.

"Hmph! You're just a divine beast, yet you dare to be so arrogant? Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" The Dark Pavilion Master roared angrily. He immediately took out his 80-centimeter-long sickle, pointed it at the Nine-Tailed Fox, and said coldly, "You beast, stop being so arrogant! Watch how I chop off all nine of your tails one by one!"

"Boom!" A burst of anger rushed straight to the top of Jiuwei's head, and his eyes were burning with flames.

Jiuwei really wanted to curse. Damn it, I already said I'm not a divine beast, not a divine beast! Are you fucking deaf? And who the hell is so arrogant? Ah!

Sensing Jiuwei's murderous intent, Su Qingning quickly reached out and gently stroked his chest, soothing him: "Jiuwei, don't be angry. This person is still useful, you can't kill him."

Upon hearing this, Jiuwei's chest heaved with anger. He took a deep breath, then suppressed his anger and said reluctantly, "Humph, if I can't kill you, I can at least beat you up, right?"

Su Qingning thought for a moment before nodding and saying, "Okay, as long as you don't beat him to death."

Listening to the unrestrained conversation between the man and the beast, who did not take him seriously at all, the owner of the dark pavilion suddenly felt humiliated by the other party. He was so angry that veins on his hands bulged and he picked up the sickle and chopped them down.

"Humph! You arrogant bastard, prepare to die!"

"Ha! Looking for death!"

Jiuwei was already angry, and now that he saw the other party was so arrogant and provoking him, he no longer suppressed his temper. After all, the young master said that as long as he didn't beat him to death, it would be fine.

"Young Master, please find a safe place to hide first. Once I have beaten this human into submission, I will make him kneel before you and kowtow and admit his fault."

Kyuubi said as he swung his tail to fend off the Dark Pavilion Master's attacks.

"Okay." Su Qingning nodded. She left Jiuwei's arms, flew to the couch and sat down, waiting to watch the fight.

"Hmph! A mere first-level Divine Master dares to be so arrogant. You really need a lesson!" Nine-Tailed Fox snorted coldly, and the nine tails behind him lashed at the Dark Pavilion Master like a thick whip. He said coldly, "Ignorant human, let me teach you how to behave."

"Bah! How shameless!"

The face of the master of the Dark Pavilion under the mask was as black as the bottom of a pot. He raised his scythe and looked at the tails of the Nine-Tailed Fox fiercely, as if he was determined to chop off all the tails.

Just when the man and the beast were fighting fiercely, Chi, who was ignored by everyone, quietly approached Su Qingning. He raised his hand to take her life, but was stopped by a cold voice.

"I advise you not to act rashly." Su Qingning tilted her head and looked at Chi with a gloomy gaze, and said in a cold voice: "If you don't want to die from the poison."

Chi's raised hand suddenly stopped. He looked at Su Qingning suspiciously and asked half-doubtfully, "You... poisoned her?"

Su Qingning nodded, "Yes."

Seeing the other party admit it without hesitation, Chi's face under the mask suddenly changed. He frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion. He couldn't completely believe Su Qingning's words. Because, from the moment Su Qingning entered the room, he had been staring at her and didn't notice her making any other moves. So how could she have poisoned him? Chi couldn't figure it out. He thought Su Qingning was lying to him.

"When did you poison me?" Chi asked.

"From the moment I entered this room, I poisoned the air." Su Qingning did not hide anything, she told the truth.

But Chi still had doubts about what Su Qingning said.

As if sensing the other party's doubts, Su Qingning kindly explained, "The poison I used is called Soul-Severing. It is colorless and tasteless. Anyone who suffers Soul-Severing will have a red line grow on the palm of their left hand. When the red line grows to the heart and forms a red flower, that is when the poison takes effect and they die."

Hearing this, Chi subconsciously raised his left hand to check, and then, sure enough, he saw a red line on the palm of his hand.

The red line extended downwards and was hidden under the sleeves. Chi quickly rolled up his sleeves, and then he found that the red line had grown to the length of a finger at his wrist.

Su Qingning also noticed the red line on Chi's wrist. She kindly explained to him again, "As long as you remain calm and don't get angry or take action, this red line won't grow. But if you use your spiritual energy or fighting spirit, the faster it grows, the faster you'll die."

After listening to Su Qingning's explanation, Chi was shocked and immediately realized something. If what Su Qingning said was true, and she really poisoned the room when she entered it, then the master must have been poisoned like him.

"Master, stop fighting. You are poisoned. If you continue, you will die from the poison." Chi hurriedly looked at the owner of the Dark Pavilion who was fighting with the Nine-Tailed Fox and shouted anxiously.

At the same time, the owner of the Dark Pavilion, who was already being beaten by the Nine-Tailed Fox, suddenly felt that the fighting spirit in his body began to lose control and became extremely chaotic. As his blood and energy surged, he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then, the voice of Chi reached his ears, and the owner of the dark pavilion realized that he had been poisoned.

"Snap!" The Nine-Tailed Fox's tail hit the owner of the Dark Pavilion hard, knocking him to the ground and causing him to spit out blood.

"Puff... cough cough cough..." The master of the Dark Pavilion weakly raised his head, glaring at Kyuubi with resentment, and angrily cursed: "Despicable villain!"

"Hey! You dare to scold me? Believe it or not, I will beat you to death!"

As he spoke, the tail behind Kyuubi moved, and he was really about to hit the owner of the Dark Pavilion.

"That's enough, Jiuwei. If you hit him again, he will die." Su Qingning spoke up in time to stop him.

Hearing Su Qingning's words, Jiuwei curled his lips in dissatisfaction, but he still obediently retracted his tail.

"Hmph! For the sake of my young master, I will let you go this time."
