Most of the capital cities in the demon world are places where ghosts and monsters roam. The sky here is as bright and colorful as blood.
Even the bright moon hanging by nature is scarlet and ominous, and occasionally a few pops from other planes streak across the sky and land.
The moonlight like a veil filled the capital, reflecting the towering underworld like a huge gray silhouette, like a sleeping evil beast.
Blood moons are not uncommon in the demon world, but most of them are incomplete bright red moon phases. It is extremely rare to see a full blood-red moon like tonight.
The faint crimson moonlight that shines in the Demon Realm contains an aura of violence.
When the full moon falls over the city, the demons in this realm will inevitably become more bloodthirsty and cruel.
Even the demon guards guarding the city in the royal palace had a hint of fierceness in their eyes.
In the King's Underworld Palace, Ning Feiyan sat quietly on a futon, holding a jade chip in her fair and slender hand, lowering her head and carefully mixing the heart-protecting incense in the golden furnace.
Tonight is the day for her to protect His Majesty the Demon Lord.
She raised her hand and glanced at the scarlet moonscape outside the window.
Every move, every thought of the Demon King is closely related to the four seasons of the Demon Realm.
The appearance of the crimson full moon must be related to the mood of the devil.
It's just that she is a little confused. Now that she has not taken action, how can His Majesty not be able to bear it anymore?
The long bright lamp in the palace was shining faintly. Her Majesty the Demon King was wearing a black fox fur. On the palace couch, she was lying deep in the soft tent.
Bead curtains surrounded her, and the cold smoke in the incense burner was burning inch by inch. The pale and blurry mist was faint, and her pale and thin face was dizzy in the cold smoke, as blurry as a mirror.
She closed her eyes, unable to hide the unprovoked coquettishness between her eyebrows. As the green smoke rose around her, a faint red vertical mark appeared between her eyebrows.
Before the incense in the golden furnace was about to burn out, Ning Feiyan methodically mixed the new heart-protecting incense and lit it.
The female demon king heard the subtle voice in the outer hall and slowly opened her eyes, her dark eyes barely reflecting a gleam of light.
She looked at Ning Feiyan's back with a calm face, and suddenly said: "I heard that the Lord of Four Rivers found the cat that was lost thirty years ago in the human world a few days ago?"
Ning Feiyan paused her fingers slightly, and it was difficult to hear the true meaning hidden in her mouth for a while. She smiled without changing her expression: "Yes, Your Majesty."
She originally thought that the female witch was somewhat suspicious of the cat's identity.
But I never thought that she really seemed to just ask casually, and said lightly in a low voice: "It's good to find something again after losing it."
Ning Feiyan folded the newly burned heart-protecting incense and brought it to her bed, then went to fetch the two burnt-out cold incense sticks, preparing to take them down to clean and make new incense.
The female demon king, who was a little tired, suddenly fell on the slender arm stretched out by Ning Feiyan. Through a layer of light cloud gauze, the skin as white as snow under the gauze sleeve could be clearly seen.
The female devil squinted her eyes imperceptibly, and suddenly raised her hand to gently press Ning Feiyan's white wrist: "When did the palace sand between the Four Rivers Lord's arms disappear?"
Ning Feiyan was slightly startled, then pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "When did Your Majesty care about the personal affairs of his subordinates? It is normal for succubi to be greedy for pleasure."
The female demon king let go of her wrist and frowned: "If I remember correctly, you will become my brother's concubine in the future."
Ning Feiyan lowered her eyes: "Your Majesty, are you planning to ask for guilt?"
A slight smile appeared on the lips of the female demon king, and she said: "The demon world has always believed that the strong are respected. You can climb to where you are today with a weak succubus body step by step. This is enough to prove that your character and means are far away." My brother is on the road.
In a sense, Ning Feiyan, you and I are very similar. We are both evil ghosts who crawled out from the bottom of the struggling world. In terms of value, you are far above your brother. If you really become the young concubine of the demon clan, , in order to suppress the disaster beast in his body, he will naturally absorb all of your cultivation without hesitation. "
The female devil's eyes were smiling, and she suddenly raised her hand to wrap a strand of Ning Feiyan's green hair around her pale fingertips: "I have exhausted the cultivation of Master Sihe just to make up for the consequences of the wrong things my brother committed. After careful calculation, it is really a luxurious transaction, and I also feel it is a pity."
Ning Feiyan's expression remained motionless, and her eyes showed no emotion. She smiled softly and said, "This is my duty as a subordinate, so why should I say it?"
The female devil's expression became unpredictable when she heard this. She looked into Ning Feiyan's eyes and her tone was rare and gentle and sincere.
"If the Lord of the Four Rivers feels aggrieved and does not want to marry his brother, you can tell me directly and I will make the decision for you."
"Your Majesty is joking." In the bright light and green smoke, Ning Fei's smoky eyebrows were like an ink painting, and her posture was elegant and comfortable. She changed into a golden beast. She lightly raised her eyes and said seriously: "My subordinates prefer to make decisions for themselves."
The female demon king raised her eyes slightly: "Are you talking about the banquet for your return ten days later?"
The banquet of your return, the time of changing the list.
This list is naturally a list of river masters. The rankings of the six rivers in the Demon Realm are not fixed. Every hundred years, the Demon Realm will hold a ceremony to change the list.
At that time, demon kings and demon generals from all directions will gather up and down the Hades Continent. Those who have the courage can challenge every river lord of the six rivers.
If the challenge is successful, he will take his place and become the new river master.
The demons have always believed in the principle of the weak and the strong, even among the six rivers, this principle is their belief.
Between Liuhe and Liuhe, the lower river master can take the opportunity of this ranking banquet to challenge the upper river master. If he wins, his ranking will be improved.
Today, Ning Feiyan happens to be ranked fourth in the Liuhe River, an embarrassing position that is neither high nor low. If she can take this opportunity to become the top three river masters, the marriage contract between her and Milu Shaojun will be It can be broken without attacking.
Ning Feiyan chuckled softly: "Rather than leaving my destiny to others to decide, my subordinates prefer to control it themselves."
The female demon king's eyes glanced at the orb under her ear: "But I see, your current situation is not very good. How come the divine source passed down by the Meizu from generation to generation went to the human world and lost 30%? So why? Sanhe will not be present when Banjun returns to the banquet, so you can only challenge Erhe. The odds of winning against Erhe are extremely slim."
Ning Feiyan kept a smile on her face and said: "The future is unpredictable. If my subordinate is defeated and dies in battle, that is my fate. I am willing to suffer the consequences myself."
The female devil sighed and said: "In this case, the Lord of the Four Rivers can take care of himself."
"Your Majesty." Ning Feiyan called softly: "When you return to the banquet, your Majesty prepared a gift for your Majesty. I hope your Majesty will like it."
The female devil responded casually and said unconcernedly: "People in the royal city have already talked about this matter, saying that you wanted to give me the cat you raised, but it's a pity that I don't like cats. , you don’t need to bother anymore.”
Ning Feiyan smiled and said nothing, and when she was about to retreat, she suddenly asked, pretending to be unintentional: "Does your Majesty know the name A'luo?"
The female devil's eyes suddenly became deep. She floated up like a ghost and came behind Ning Feiyan. Her desolate and cold hands caressed the back of her slender neck, and the flowing luster in her slender and coquettish eyes. It was extremely obvious, but her tone was extremely gentle, so gentle that it made people feel taboo.
"Where did you hear this name?"
Ning Feiyan stopped getting out of bed. She seemed not to feel the danger and death from the hand on the back of her neck, and the vague smile on her face remained unchanged.
She looked at the shadow reflected diagonally on the wall and said as if unintentionally: "It's just that my subordinate recently found a handsome bed partner. Inadvertently when he was confused, he hugged me and called out this name, um ... This bad guy fell asleep on my bed, chanting the name of another girl. The subordinate was not very willing, so he had a few words with him while he was drunk.
Only then did I realize that this girl named A'luo was originally a very powerful demon with little knowledge among her subordinates. I had never heard that there was such a person in our royal city. Bullied into such a sad look. "
The fingers resting on the skin of the back of the neck suddenly froze, and there was a long silence behind him. In this silence, the killing intent behind him was only strong or not.
After a long time, the female demon king quietly said: "Is it because of him that the gonggong sand in your arms disappeared?"
Ning Feiyan's tone was quite relaxed: "He is a lovable young master."
That finger gently caressed her skin, tenderly and affectionately, as if caressing her. The female devil asked with a hint of hesitation in her tone: "Did the person you mentioned really call out that name?"
Ning Feiyan said angrily: "Isn't that right? Your Majesty is here to judge. There is no man in the world who can be as chilling as him. After one night, the sound of A'luo's name made my ears bristle. If he If you really like that girl named Aluo, why would you bother me?"
The female devil's voice muttered in disbelief, and seemed to be a bit fragile and confused: "You said... he likes A'luo?"
Ning Feiyan's eyebrows dropped, hiding an inexplicable smile under her eyes, but the emotion she showed was the bitterness and sadness of being let down.
"If he didn't like it, how could he read someone's name for so long at that time? He knows exactly what that girl likes."
The female devil asked subconsciously: "What do you like?"
Ning Feiyan said angrily: "That girl must be a sword fanatic, and she especially likes to hide swords."
The female devil pursed her lips, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red. She was basically sure that what Ning Feiyan said was true. She slowly retracted her finger and continued to ask: "Did he say anything else?"
Her fingers left, and Ning Feiyan dared to turn around and look at her with a strange look on purpose: "His Majesty's hobbies seem a bit... strange. How can he be so curious about his subordinates' sexual whispers? "
The Demon Lord lowered her body slightly, looked into her eyes very close, and said seriously: "Yes, I'm quite curious about how such a bastard can make you risk your brother's thunderous wrath and sacrifice your life like this? "
He was defeated by an army.
Ning Feiyan coughed lightly and said, "You didn't say anything else?"
The female devil smiled and patted her head, saying: "You served me very well tonight. I'm in a good mood. Can you go back earlier?"
Ning Feiyan glanced sideways at the increasingly scarlet moonlight outside the window, wondering where her good mood came from.
But tonight, she was in a really good mood.
The process of digging out the fatal weaknesses hidden in His Majesty's heart bit by bit is really interesting.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Ning Feiyan left, the hall was empty, and everything around him seemed to blend into the night.
The female devil stood alone on the couch, looking at the faint green smoke coming out of the little golden furnace beast. Her dark eyes were sometimes tender, sometimes cruel, and sometimes she fell into an incomprehensible confusion.
Tonight was a critical period for her to calm her heart and soul, and her mind couldn't bear the slightest excitement, but Ning Feiyan's words disturbed her heart and she couldn't calm down for a long time.
The pale red vertical mark between her eyebrows flickered unsteadily for a few times, and gradually became darker in color. Finally, under her chaotic heartbeat and gaze, a bright red blood line slowly seeped out.
The female devil's body was shaking unsteadily, her face was losing color little by little, and she became pale and solemn. She raised her fingers and put them between her eyebrows, as if she was suppressing great pain.
The heart-protecting incense surrounding her was obviously of no use to her current situation. She frowned, kicked over the two incense burners in annoyance, took off the black fox fur on her body, and left the palace under the moonlight. .
At this moment, Bai Lian is facing a big trouble.
An uninvited guest broke into Ning Feiyan's bedroom.
Sihe lives in the Chaomu Palace. Because Ning Feiyan doesn't like to be served by outsiders all year round, there is no demon servant in the palace, not even a demon soldier guarding the palace gate.
It's just that in this huge Demon State, no one dares to come uninvited and break into the palace where Sihe lives.
But if one day, someone really dares to break into this morning and evening palace, then naturally it is not an ordinary person.
Milu walked in drunkenly, carrying a pot of wine.
He has suffered from being sealed for many years, and he broke out of his shell early. His body has never been able to grow. He is not ugly by nature. He has a similar appearance to the female devil, so he is naturally good-looking.
But his gloomy and cruel appearance, coupled with the whipped spine and stooped waist, made him look more like a sinister monster full of resentment.
As soon as he entered the palace, he smashed the wine pot into pieces and looked at Hong Zhuang with eyes red from the alcohol: "Where is Ning Feiyan? Let her come out to me! I have something to ask her!"
Hongzhuang was trying out the newly made crib for Balian, but she didn't know that this evil star would come to her door.
She didn't look very good-looking, but she was obviously wary and respectful of Milu. After all, the succubus clan had always been loyal to the demon clan's young master.
She hurriedly stood up to greet him: "Your Highness, Young Master, today is the day when Master Feiyan burns incense to protect His Majesty's heart. She is no longer in the palace."
Milu had obviously drunk too much and was unconscious. He was full of rage. He didn't know where such anger came from. He actually pulled out the demon bone steel whip from his waist and pointed fiercely at Hongzhuang. Take it off your face!
"Stop talking nonsense to me. I just found out today that she never thought about dedicating herself to me from the beginning to the end! She tried every means to escape from my grasp from the beginning! Jun Guiyan! What a Junguiyan ! She wants to take advantage of this opportunity to challenge and change the rankings to become a high-ranking river master! I will not let her get what she wants, so today I want her to take away her magic yin! I see how she dares to refuse!"
Hongzhuang didn't seem to dare to dodge at all, she stood there motionless and gritted her teeth.
Seeing this scene, Bai Lian, who was nestled in the small bed, narrowed his eyes deeply and kicked his limbs out on the bed frame, knocking Hong Zhuang away, allowing her to narrowly avoid the blow.
The sharp thorns on the whip were as sharp as knives, but a bright red bloody hole burst out on his back. The wound was like a fire, and there was a vicious pain.
Hongzhuang glanced at Bailian with a complicated expression. She was about to get up to see the injuries on its body.
But when he saw Milu's eyes cold, he lifted up Bailian who was lying weakly on the ground, and sneered disdainfully: "How dare you protect the person I want to kill in front of you, just a sick cat? I think you deserve to live." Impatient."
Hongzhuang's complexion changed drastically. She knew that this Jungui Banquet would be of great use to her sister, and she hurriedly said: "Your Highness, this is my sister's favorite cat."
Mi Lu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and then he remembered that when he entered the city a few days ago, he fell and injured the cat. Ning Feiyan looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile.
He snorted coldly, walked to the window, threw Bai Lian out of the window, then turned his head coldly, looked at Hong Zhuang and smiled cruelly.
When Hongzhuang met his gaze, her body couldn't help but tremble, as if she was recalling some terrible nightmare, and the blood on her face faded cleanly.
The pain hidden in his bones began to burn faintly.
Outside the window, Bailian, whose bones were broken and painful from the fall, was not in a hurry to return to the palace. In his current state, he had no power to fight back against the Milu.
Calculating the time carefully, Ning Feiyan should be back soon. In this case, the only way to find her is to save Hongzhuang from suffering.
The old wounds on his body were not healed, and new ones were added to his body. If Hong Zhuang hadn't secretly fed him some blood from time to time in the past few days and nights behind Ning Feiyan's back, he might not even have the strength to get out of bed at this moment.
Thinking of this, Bailian couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Holding back the pain in his body, Balian didn't dare to waste a moment and ran towards King Hades Palace, leaving behind a string of eye-catching blood stains on the road paved with black stones.
The demon guards in the palace all knew the jade plaque around Bailian's neck, so they would not stop him at will. He did not meet Ning Feiyan along the way, so he was inevitably anxious.
While passing through a peach grove in front of the Hades Palace, the colorful peach petals of the fallen leaves at night dazzled his eyes. Balian couldn't find a way out for a while. He ran for an unknown amount of time, and the blood in his body continued to drain. The weakness in his body made him unable to find a way out. Gradually I couldn't even see the road clearly.
Finally, his head hit someone's calf. His body tilted and he fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.
He raised his eyelids and opened his eyes. Across the peach blossoms flying in the sky, he met a pair of enchanting and beautiful eyes.
His body was gently picked up by her, and her eyes looked at him with great complexity, as if she was filled with the joy of regaining something.
He heard her say to him with such endless joy: "Cat, I finally found you."
Balian never thought that he would meet the Lord of the Demon Realm again in such a situation.
What's more, he didn't expect that he was just transformed into a cat by Ning Feiyan, and that he could so cleverly and miraculously look like the cat that the Demon Lord once raised.
