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

"This guy..."

Mu Jiannan's cheeks flushed.

This was the first time a man had ever lay on her lap like this...

But then again, what wasn't the first time he'd done something with his junior brother?

Mu Jiannan looked at Ye Ge, who was sleeping soundly with her face up, completely carefree, and secretly spat.

She then slowly closed her eyes, steadied her sword mind, and entered a meditative state.

【Hello......】

Are you there? Are you there?

【What are you doing?......】

"?Um?"

Ye Ge was sleeping soundly when she suddenly vaguely felt a familiar voice calling her in her consciousness.

Who are you?

[Nonsense! Who do you think I am? Who else could possibly exist in your consciousness?]

【...】

【You are... Su Yanling?】

Night Song suddenly dawned on me.

He almost forgot that he had an old online friend.

The current empress of the Spirit Demon Clan...

When he was cultivating the Demonic Flame, he often pestered Su Yanling to chat with him.

The main purpose was to learn how to control the demonic spirit fire.

If Su Yanling doesn't respond, Ye Ge will keep harassing her, preventing her from getting a proper rest...

Thus, although the two had never met in person, eight years of online chatting had made them very familiar with each other.

I've just been in seclusion with my senior sister for a while now, so we haven't been able to chat.

[Night Song: This is rare. Why is Her Majesty the Spirit Demon Empress in the mood to contact me today?]

[Su Yanling: It's nothing.]

[Su Yanling: What are you doing?]

[Night Song: Nothing, I'm just helping my senior sister with her cultivation.]

[Su Yanling: ?]

[Night Song: This is very serious cultivation, don't get the wrong idea.]

[Su Yanling: Oh, whether it's proper or not, it's all the same, it has nothing to do with me anyway.]

[Night Song: Why does your voice sound a little listless? Did you get dumped by someone you liked?]

[Su Yanling: ...You brat, are you asking for a beating? I am the Empress of the Spirit Demon Clan, what kind of man can't I have? And if I do, I'll dump him...]

[Night Song: But your voice sounds like you've just broken up with someone.]

[Su Yanling: ╬]

[Night Song: Okay, no jokes. You must have something on your mind to call me so late at night, right? Tell me what's bothering you, and I'll give you some advice, considering we've been online friends for eight years.]

[Su Yanling: Get lost.]

[Night Song: ......]

This woman, you were the one who came to me, yet you're telling me to get lost?

Tsk tsk, the dignified Empress of the Spirit Demon Clan has extremely poor manners.

My senior sister is still the best.

Ye Ge rolled over, turning her face toward her senior sister's abdomen. At the same time, as if in a dream, she stretched out an arm and hugged her senior sister's soft waist as if she were hugging a pillow.

Mu Jiannan: (⊙_⊙)!

Mu Jiannan suddenly opened his eyes, his face flushed.

Kenshin, who had just been stabilized by her, immediately fell into chaos.

This guy......

We agreed it was just a lap pillow...

But Mu Jiannan looked at Ye Ge, who was fast asleep with his head on her lap, and couldn't bear to wake him up again.

"You dishonest fellow!" Mu Jiannan reached out and gently pinched Ye Ge's cheek as if punishing him.

Then, gazing at Ye Ge's sleeping face, she gently stroked his hair, letting him hold her like that, before closing her eyes and continuing to meditate.

On the bedside table, the white spirit in cat form was lying there, while the calamity spirit in raven form was standing to the side, preening its feathers with its beak.

Bai Xueling curled her lip, her face full of disdain.

What a cunning owner!

snort......

"What's wrong with you?" The spirit of calamity looked at him with suspicion.

"Nothing much." Bai Xueling snorted, turned the cat's head around, and wrapped its head with its two fluffy tails.

The Spirit of Calamity: "..."

......

The Kingdom of Spirit Demons.

Su Yanling lay on her side on her throne, supporting her head with a slender, white forearm as delicate as a lotus root, while nine beautiful, fiery fox tails swayed around her.

Su Yanling remained in that position for a long time, her eyes, filled with unresolved thoughts, staring blankly ahead.

Anyone could see that this female emperor of the Spirit Demon Clan was indeed preoccupied with worries.

After an unknown amount of time, she sighed silently, alluringly adjusted the clothes hanging down her shoulders, stood up from the throne, and went to the palace window.

From the windows here, you can look down on the entire Spirit Demon Kingdom.

Su Yanling gazed at the starry kingdom under the night sky and thought of the former Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

Back then, the territory of the Spirit Demon Clan was more than a hundred times larger than it is now...

The former empress, Sister Blood Spirit, risked her life to preserve the last spark of the Spirit Demon Clan, leaving behind the present-day Spirit Demon Kingdom.

She had to hold on no matter what.

"Your Majesty the Empress."

A spirit demon maidservant approached her: "The envoy from the Western Dragon Clan has arrived."

"Um......"

Su Yanling didn't turn her head, and replied calmly, "Summon all the ministers."

......

The next day.

Ye Ge slept soundly until the sun was high in the sky before stretching comfortably and waking up.

That was a really good night's sleep...

He hadn't had such a good night's sleep in a long time since he started his seclusion and cultivation with his senior sister.

"How long are you going to sleep?" Mu Jiannan's resentful voice rang in my ears.

Ye Ge opened her eyes and saw her senior sister, who was right above her, looking at her with a resentful expression.

Oh... I almost forgot, did he lie on his senior sister's lap all night?

Mu Jiannan's lips moved slightly.

Ye Ge slept comfortably, though.

She didn't sleep a wink all night...

The main problem is that Ye Ge is such a restless sleeper, like a child, constantly turning over, fidgeting, and scratching around...

This caused Mu Jiannan to spend a great deal of time and energy throughout the night just trying to stabilize his sword heart...

"Uh...cough cough, Senior Sister, I'm sorry." Ye Ge quickly sat up and coughed twice. "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly." Mu Jiannan paused for a moment, then said, "I have indeed been too strict with you these past two months, waking you up at five o'clock every day. I'll let you sleep a little longer today."

"Hehe, then thank you, Senior Sister." Ye Ge glanced at the sun outside. "However, it's time for cultivation. I was originally going to go to the Ferocious Beast Forest to find the Thunder Beast today. I'll go cook for you, Senior Sister, and then prepare our things to set off."

"No need, it's getting late. You go ahead, I'll cook." Mu Jiannan: "I'll wait for you to come back for dinner tonight."

"Okay." Ye Ge reached out and casually touched Mu Jiannan's hair. "Then I'll go."

Mu Jiannan: "!"

"Okay...okay, be careful on the road..."

Mu Jiannan looked away and lowered his head, not stopping Ye Ge's actions.

Ye Ge couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

She is clearly the strongest swordsman of the human race, a peak expert of the Heavenly Revelation Realm, but now she looks like a shy wife waiting for her husband to return.

Ye Ge left the bamboo cabin and walked through the bamboo forest.

The Thunder Beasts aren't difficult to deal with, and they're not rare or hard to find, so they should be back tonight.

However, at this moment, a powerful demonic aura suddenly swept over everything!

Ye Ge's eyes flickered.

Heh, just as I expected...
