C3 Cause and Effect

I was so angry that my vision went black. I leaned on the table and was about to fall down. Perhaps it was too terrifying to look at, Yunxi cried out, "My lord -" and rushed over to hug my sliding body and place it on a chair. A bowl of bitter-smelling medicine was brought in front of me in time.

When he saw that I was gasping for breath and obediently drank all the medicine, he felt relieved and tried to comfort me." Why are you competing with the Demon Emperor? Look at your weak body, it seems like two steps are enough to kill you. Isn't the reason why the Demon Emperor temporarily won't let you out also for your health? What can't be done after recovering, and what can be worth risking your life for? " I listened glumly, and for the first time I was struck by the eloquence of my little maid-in-waiting.

"... Besides, even if you want to risk your life, you shouldn't be the one doing it with your current position. We don't lack any of the Seventy-Two Demon Generals or Right Patronus. Even in the most dangerous situation, you only care about keeping watch with the Demon Emperor. To tell you the truth, you were born with the appearance of a weak girl. I'm afraid that you'll tire yourself with the Howling Plume Sword, yet you still prefer to go out and fight and kill..." The more Yunxi spoke, the angrier she became. She walked around me with a frown, trying to clean up the mess. I smiled weakly and tried to explain myself - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"Who would want to run out and fight to the death? To go to the blood pool to kill the Red Scaled Dragon without bringing anyone with you is just to vent your anger on him."

Who knew that it would be fine if I didn't say that? The moment I said "angry with him," Yunxi gritted her teeth even more resentfully.

"Sir! You were still angry. When you weren't angry, you didn't even give others a good look. In a fit of anger, you even gave up your own life. In the end, you still had to be fished out of the blood pool. On the day you came back, you had already fainted, and the dress you had changed into was dripping blood along the lines. After the Demon Emperor sent you back, he stood guard in the outer hall, and his eyes turned red when he saw the clothes..."

As he said this, I could already see his expression that day when he looked at the pools of blood as if he had lost his parents. He was so focused on remembering another thing that had bathed me in blood that he didn't even listen to what Yunxi said after that.

That day, he was angry. It was because of the dispute and ill-feelings he had for the past month.

One morning a month ago, I was summoned to the study for a meeting by the Demon Emperor. That day, I originally planned to rearrange the formation of the Devil Realm soldiers with Right Patronus and Wanqing.

Zhuochen's study was in the middle of the Lake of Desire in the Devil Realm. I flew up and dodged the endless waves of demonic flames surging out of the Lake of Desire. Just as I was about to knock on the door, the Demon Emperor sensed my aura from inside.

"Come in!"

I pushed the door open and went in... It was a rare scene that he had not seen in many years. The Demon Emperor's face was so wet that water could be squeezed out of it, but it was not tender, it was gloomy!

There was a beautiful woman kneeling in front of the long table, surrounded by Immortal Qi. When she saw me come in, she looked at me with a pitiful expression...

My mouth twitched. I subconsciously felt that something was wrong and was about to turn around and leave.

A blue light flashed in front of me and pierced through my elbow and ankle. I was pinned to the wall by the door, blood dripping slowly from my wound. It hurt my eyes more than the wound. "Zhuochen! You... "

Zhuochen glared at me, his eyes were filled with violence and anger, "You still dare to run - the Devil Realm really can't tolerate you anymore!"

... "??" I wanted to leave because I was afraid that you and this woman didn't have enough love between you and me to give you face!

However, when the woman saw me, it was as if she had seen her savior. She crawled and crawled at my feet, pulling at the corner of my skirt as she cried, "My lord, my lord, our matter has been exposed. The Demon Emperor knows about your discussion with the Supreme Divinity! My lord! My lord, please save this servant! The Demon Emperor will kill us..."

"!!! "What was going on?

Every time I moved, my limbs felt as if they were being torn apart, but I still slowly turned in Zhuochen's direction. Perhaps it was the pain and confusion on my twisted face, but in Zhuochen's eyes, it was the fear of being found out.

I bit my lip and asked him, "What the hell -?"

He stared at me for a while and then reached out his hand to pick up a piece of paper and handed it to me.

I closed my eyes and pressed the water vapor in my eyes. I read the words on the letter word by word - The Supreme Divinity and the Demon Lord conspired together. The Demon Lord used his power to sneak into the blood pool and release the Red Scaled Dragon that had been suppressed for a million years.

This was really a good show of a demon lord killing his monarch. If it weren't for the pain in my limbs, I would have laughed a few times.

However, I don't have the time to talk about it. I just lowered my head and sighed.

The hand pinched my chin. It wasn't a heavy squeeze, but the force of the lift was so strong that it couldn't be resisted. "I would like to know when the Demon Lord started wanting to kill the king."

"I... No." Those three words had almost used up all my energy.

Demon Emperor frowned as if he was about to launch an attack, but the corner of his eye first caught a glimpse of the woman who was trembling with tears at the side. He stretched out his hand and threw the woman into the lake of lust outside the study with another blue light... Without even thinking about it, one could tell how miserable she was from the boiling devil flames in the lake. This devil flame would not burn her body, but it would jump over her burnt internal organs, adding one layer every three quarters and three times before she could die as if she was free.

Demon Emperor stood in front of me expressionlessly, as if waiting for me to continue explaining, but I really didn't have the mood.

In terms of cultivation, I am on par with him, but the Demon Emperor will always be able to suppress me. As an emperor, I have absolute control over my subordinates, just like the spell that has been nailed into my four limbs. I can't struggle at all, and struggling will only exhaust my cultivation and widen my wounds.

I closed my eyes with a bitter smile, waiting to bear his anger.

"Does it hurt?" A suppressed voice sounded beside my ear.

"What?" - What kind of nonsense is this! If you really want to know, then come and see if it hurts!

He loosened his body, and the bone-piercing pain flowed along with the blue light. It had been returned to the palm of the culprit.

I forced myself to stand and pushed his hand away. He didn't care, but changed back to his usual tone: "The Demon Lord is obsessed with eating, drinking, and having fun. Occasionally, you have to scold me behind my back when I ask you to arrange your troops and patrol the area. I believe in the conspiracies of others, but if you say that you deliberately wanted to usurp the throne..."

"Don't make fun of me!"

[I am taking the blame for no reason at all. I am feeling wronged in my heart, "Heh, Demon Emperor is really smart and brave at the same time. What a cunning man.] Acting in front of the spy scared me so much."

All the injuries in the world can be healed in a moment of rest, but not against him.

I didn't dare to move. I just slowly sat down against the wall. The blood on my ankles soaked my skirt and left blood stains on the floor.

He squatted down and looked at me. "It was an emergency, and I didn't tell you in advance that I was in the wrong. I scared you." I raised my eyebrows and looked at him. What do you think? "

I don't know how to argue with him, and I am seriously injured, so I can't help much.

By the time I was released from my cell, the matter of sowing discord had already been dealt with and the Divine Realm had been set up in the same way.

Zhuochen was a very decisive and capable king, to the extent that he was as ignorant as he was - in other words, the more unreasonable he was, the more forceful his methods of controlling the Devil Realm would be.

This person could only be a leader and look at things from a distance with respect. If he was a little closer, who knew what kind of scheme he would be schemed against.

I am afraid that I will be used as a bargaining chip.

Later on, everything seemed to have calmed down again, but my temper was too bad. A few days later, when I sent the map of the army to his Dome Hall, he made fun of me for saying that the Demon Lord was going to let the Red Scaled Dragon kill the king and usurp the throne.

But the ten days of pent-up anger had been brought out by him.

That's why I ran to the blood pond with my sword. I thought that if I killed that bastard, I would have less to talk about in the future.

The blood pool is too dangerous. Other than the Demon Emperor, no one is allowed to enter. This time, not only did I almost lose my life, I even pulled out one of my mistakes and delivered it to Zhuochen. I was really careless!
