Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

"I'll kill you today, you traitorous bastard!"

Long Hai said fiercely, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Long Ying's hair.

Long Ying groaned in pain, raised her head, and stared intently at Long Hai with a cold and sinister gaze.

"What's that look in your eyes?"

Long Hai cursed, "How dare you look at me like that? You're asking for death!" With that, he slapped him again.

However, this time, the slap did not land on Long Ying's face.

Suddenly, dozens of dark figures appeared and leaped high behind Long Ying.

Countless flashes of swords and blades clashed as they slashed towards Long Hai!

"Ok?"

Upon seeing this, Long Hai subconsciously loosened his grip.

They dodged the attacks of those flashing swords and shadows.

Long Ying slowly stood up, and she was surrounded by a circle of female warriors dressed in red, tied with black ribbons, and holding weapons.

There were dozens of people, all of whom were extraordinary individuals at the Myriad Manifestations Realm and the Asura Realm.

Most of these female warriors were martial artists. They held swords and knives, guarding Long Ying with vigilant expressions, and coldly staring at Long Hai and the others.

at the same time.

Outside the sleeping quarters, inside the imperial palace.

A series of shouts of fighting and the clanging of weapons could also be heard!

It was Long Ying's private army that was engaged in a fierce battle with Long Hai's forces in the palace!

Upon hearing these commotions, Long Hai's expression changed slightly.

The guards around him also began to tense up, staring in astonishment at the outside.

Long Hai sneered: "So all these years, you've been preparing quite a few people, all for the purpose of vying for the throne, is that it?"

Long Ying remained expressionless and did not respond.

"In that case, let's all die together!"

As Long Hai spoke, he raised his right hand.

His palm faced upwards, gathering the soul energy of the Heavenly Revelation Realm, and soon a ball of blazing dragon-shaped flame appeared in his hand.

Long Ying's eyes flickered.

This is......

The Dragon family's bloodline innate skills!

"Soul Skill - Dragon's Fury!"

Long Hai raised his hand, and a ball of dragon-shaped flame roared out!

"Roar!!"

As the flames roared out, they were accompanied by the roar and fury of an Eastern dragon.

boom--! ! !

Flames surged and air currents scattered.

The dozen or so female guards protecting Long Ying screamed in agony as they were pushed several meters away by the roaring waves of scorching fire, all collapsing to the ground.

Long Ying let out a muffled groan and subconsciously closed her eyes as well.

However, she was not swept away by the wave of fire.

The Heavenly Dao Life-Saving Lock hanging on her chest instantly emitted a dazzling red light, and then formed a spherical protective shield around her.

On the contrary, Long Hai was pushed back several steps by the recoil of the fire wave.

"what?"

Long Hai frowned.

Long Ying paused for a moment, then looked down at the small padlock hanging on her chest.

It was the Heavenly Life-Saving Lock that Ye Ge gave her...

As it blocked the fatal blow, the red light emanating from the lock gradually dimmed...

"It's actually a red-quality treasure. I didn't expect you to have kept this a secret. It seems you were already on guard against me." Long Hai sneered, "But let's see how many life-saving items you have left."

"Soul Skill - Dragon's Fury!"

Long Hai once again condensed a ball of flaming dragon flame in his hand.

At that moment, a large, thick, dark hand reached out from beside him and suddenly grabbed his wrist.

"Oh dear, don't be so fierce to a young girl," Lai Chu said with a chuckle. "It would be such a pity if such a tender and delicious princess were burned and disfigured."

Long Hai didn't speak, his face still gloomy, but he did not continue to make a move.

Lai Chu said, "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten." Long Hai lowered his hand and said expressionlessly, "Alright, since the original plan has been ruined, this girl is no longer of any use to me. Now, she's yours! Once you've dealt with her, don't forget your promise to help me get rid of Ye Ge!"

"Hehe, don't worry, I won't forget. It's just a small favor for me," Lai Chu said with a smile, looking at Long Ying.

Long Ying looked at Lai Chu, her expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously took two steps back.

She had never seen a human being with such a bizarre and disgusting appearance! Over three meters tall and over three meters wide, with a toad-like face and skin, and emanating an indescribable stench, it was so ugly and disgusting that it was outrageous!

What kind of monster is this? !

Is this thing... still human?

"And actually, it can't be said that this little girl has absolutely no value."

Lai Chu grinned and said, "We might be able to use her to lure Ye Ge to the palace alone."

Long Hai raised an eyebrow: "Will it work?"

Lai Chu shrugged: "Whether it works or not, we'll find out by trying. There's no harm in it."

Upon hearing this, Long Ying felt a chill in her heart. She then said coldly with a stern face, "You should give up on that idea. Ye Ge is a man who is destined for great things. He will not let personal feelings interfere with his plans. Besides, we never had any feelings for each other before. It was just that you betrothed me to him."

“You seem to have misunderstood.” Lai Chu picked his big nose. “I didn’t ask him to come and rescue you. You’re denying that you tipped him off, aren’t you? Once I’ve controlled your mind, I’ll make you ‘tip him off’ again, and then arrange to meet him alone in private… Hehe, do you think he’ll come?”

Long Ying's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

“But before that…” Lai Chu stood in front of Long Ying.

His tall and muscular body cast a shadow as large as a mountain, completely enveloping Long Ying's petite frame.

Lai Chu stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, a wicked smile on his face.

Everyone knows what he wants to do.

“Little girl.

"I heard you're getting married today."

"Right?"

"Hehe, look at you in your beautiful wedding dress."

"Just what I'm looking for!"

Long Ying's eyes instantly turned cold.

"Protect His Highness!"

At this moment, dozens of female guards rushed forward.

"Tch, overestimating yourselves." Lai Chu glanced at them.

Suddenly, a huge mouth, like that of a toad, appeared on his thick, tattered belly, which was layered upon layered and resembled a sack.

The flesh inside the giant mouth writhed wildly, and vortexes rolled out from it.

Before they could even see what was happening, the dozen or so female guards at the front were all swept into the fleshy vortex and disappeared into the belly of the leper.

Saint Realm expert!

Long Ying sensed Lai Chu's soul power and was alarmed.

'This monster is so strong...'

She quickly used the system to scan the properties panel of the leprosy.

really!

This guy is the only Saint Realm transcendent being among the human race!

I never expected it to look like this!

The few female guards who were lucky enough not to get caught up in the incident also showed expressions of fear, and their hands trembled slightly as they gripped their swords.

What on earth just happened?

They didn't even see clearly! The other companions had vanished!

Lai Chu patted his belly with satisfaction and grinned, "Your Highness, why keep sending people up to their deaths? If you cooperate with me, I might be gentler. Anyway, once I've cleansed your mind, you won't feel any pain anymore."

Long Ying's eyes were cold, and she did not respond. Instead, she turned her gaze to Long Hai.

"Thank you for giving me a reason to kill you, Father."

Long Ying never imagined that her father would entrust her to such a monster.

His actions have undoubtedly extinguished the last bit of affection Long Ying had for him!
