A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

"Don't even think about going anywhere until your injuries are healed," Guluo said coldly.

"Do you think I'll have a good time after you've treated me like this, even if I regain my strength?"

"Ah."

Gu Luo smoothed his sleeves and said with a smug look, "Then let's talk about it after you recover. Until you recover, I'm in charge of everything. If you dare to cause trouble again and delay my resurrection, I don't mind spreading the location of the old demon king."

Enough!

Mo Shaoxie knew that Gu Luo was all bark and no bite, and that all he said was for Gu Luo's health.

Mo Shaoxie was preoccupied with Feng Jiutian, wishing he could immediately follow in her footsteps and rush out to watch his little woman do things. He didn't expect that Gu Luo would be blocking his way, preventing him from going...

Suddenly, Mo Shaoxie seemed to realize something, his expression turning cold as he frowned and asked, "Where did she just go?"

"The main island of the Deep Sea Prison."

Gu Luo looked at Mo Shaoxie with some confusion and said, "Isn't that your place? What's wrong?"

Mo Shaoxie's expression grew increasingly cold, his lips tightening into a straight line as he said in a chilling voice, "If it were a few hundred years ago, that would indeed be my territory, but now... the island lord up there is far from peaceful, and I am seriously injured. If I were to go out and fight him head-on, I could only manage a draw, and I wouldn't be able to protect Jiutian..."

"Okay, okay, I got it!"

Gu Luo picked at his ear and interrupted Mo Shaoxie irritably, "Can't I go protect your woman?"

"Thank you."

Mo Shaoxie replied very smoothly.

Gu Luo's expression was priceless. The once aloof and unapproachable god Gu Luo was forced by Mo Shaoxie, this cunning fox, to have a face full of meme-worthy expressions.

……

As Feng Jiutian walked out of the main gate and left the secret room where Mo Shaoxie was, she looked up and saw the bright sunshine, and then felt a moment of disorientation.

A sudden, sharp pain shot through my heart.

"Well……"

Feng Jiutian couldn't help but clutch her chest, where a sharp pain returned, causing her face to contort for a moment.

"Ten times the pain..."

Feng Jiutian murmured, "Just how much pain did Mo Shaoxie endure? How much did he suffer? What does he really want?"

At this moment, Feng Jiutian deeply felt that he might not be able to afford to gamble.

She recalled the scene she had witnessed before, the move she and Mo Shaoxie used together, which was clearly something only the closest people would use.

Could it be... that I really will fall in love with Mo Shaoxie?

Feng Jiutian didn't want to face the problem directly, so he summoned Xixue, cleared his mind of all emotions, changed his aura, walked out of the alley, grabbed someone on the roadside to ask for the location of the island lord's mansion, and rushed to the door with his sword in hand!

Just after Feng Jiutian left, the door in that alley reappeared, and Gu Luo floated out from inside. His powerful divine sense allowed him to see Feng Jiutian's actions at that moment, and he couldn't help but slap his forehead.

"One step too late!"

The woman Mo Shaoxie has his eye on has already been targeted by his disciples, who have gone there to cause trouble! Now he can only try to ensure everyone is unharmed, or rather, help her... cause trouble?

Unexpectedly, Gu Luo followed Feng Jiutian's trail and drifted over.

Island owner's mansion.

Gong Xifei didn't expect to see Feng Jiutian appear so soon, and he certainly didn't expect it to be in such an awkward situation.

He was holding Mo Qiniang's hand, teaching her how to use a calligraphy brush.

Mo Qiniang had just woken up yesterday. Gong Xifei lied to her, saying that Feng Jiutian had asked him to bring her to this place first. Mo Qiniang was young, and although she was a little unhappy because Feng Jiutian had abandoned her, she was quickly distracted by Gong Xifei with other things.

When she saw Feng Jiutian appear, Mo Qiniang greeted her with a smile: "Sister Feng!"

However, Feng Jiutian only gave her a friendly look before turning an extremely cold expression as she looked at Gong Xifei.

Gong Xifei, still somewhat awkward, released the brush, his ears turning red as he looked at Feng Jiutian and stammered, "Feng... Miss Feng..."

"You took Xiaoqi away without my permission and threatened me. Now that I'm standing in front of you, where are those people who were lying in ambush? Why don't you shout them out?"

Feng Jiutian stared at Gong Xifei, her eyes as cold as ice and snow, even carrying a hint of killing intent.

Feng Jiutian never easily entrusts her trust to others, but this time, she boldly gave Gong Xifei another chance.

Unexpectedly, I encountered betrayal.

Feng Jiutian sensed that many spies were planted within the island lord's mansion the moment she entered. Most of them were spirit masters, and a few were even immortal masters. It seemed that they had gone to great lengths to capture her.

We're just waiting for her to appear, and then at a single command, we'll surround her completely!

Feng Jiutian had a pretty good idea of ​​the purpose; it was probably about the cooperation between the Endless Realm and the Deep Sea Prison. The Deep Sea Prison wanted to obtain resources without losing a single soldier.

As expected, Yan Shi'en's rejection was not without reason. He had seen through the true nature of the Deep Sea Prison at a glance. No matter how humble and subservient one was, one's nature was still hard to change.

"I……"

Gong Xifei's expression turned guilty. He looked at Feng Jiutian for a long time before saying in a deep voice, "Miss Feng, I am sorry. This is the master's order, and I cannot disobey it. Please do not resist, so as not to get hurt."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and the people who had been lying in ambush in the shadows appeared one after another, forming an arc around Feng Jiutian. They drew their long swords and pointed them at Feng Jiutian, their faces solemn.

The atmosphere suddenly froze. Feng Jiutian sneered, his gaze sweeping over the sword tips as he said unhurriedly, "You're quite willing to part with mid-grade spiritual weapons."

"The Deep Sea Prison is renowned for its weapon crafting; these weapons are insignificant. I would appreciate Miss Feng's cooperation..."

"What if I don't?" Feng Jiutian stared indifferently at Gong Xifei, a murderous intent flashing across his face as he coldly said, "If Xiao Qi weren't still safe and sound, no matter what you did that benefited me, I would have slaughtered you without hesitation. I can't tolerate betrayal the most, and you have betrayed my trust."

Gong Xifei lowered his head: "I'm sorry!"

After speaking, he slightly moved his hand and gave the order. The men in black surrounding Feng Jiutian drew their swords and charged at Feng Jiutian!

"Zheng——"

As the swords clashed, Feng Jiutian summoned Fine Snow and coldly blocked the incoming blade. Fine Snow was already a divine artifact, and with the added enhancement of Feng Jiutian's Crimson Lotus Night Flame, any sword that came into contact with Feng Jiutian would break at the point of contact!

"Since that's the case, I don't need to hold back!"

Feng Jiutian's expression turned cold, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, he unleashed his spiritual energy to slap away the approaching man in black.
