Chapter 97: The Pinnacle of the Demon Realm (32)
“I can agree to your condition, but I want to add one more, I want him!”
Chuzheng and the Demon Monarch were nearing the end of their negotiation when the Demon Monarch suddenly pointed at Li Tang.
Li Tang: “…”
“Why?”
Li Tang frowned slightly. Was she really nning to give him away?
There was finally a hint of amusement on the unexpecting face of the Demon Monarch. “He’s a Half-Demon, and he has a Heart Demon. I want to do some research.”
Though humans asionally fell into their realm, the union of the Demon n and humans, resulting in offspring, was something the Demon Monarch had never witnessed before.
“Impossible.” Chuzheng refused.
The Good Person Card is not something you can just research. What if you break it! In your dreams!
The Demon Monarch spread his hands indifferently: “Then our previous discussion is void.”
“Fine.” Chuzheng stood up. “After all, you’re not the only Demon Monarch in Central City.” I don’t necessarily need you, but you’re just closer, fool.<div>
“…”
“You, stop!” The Demon Monarch called out to her. “I won’t hurt him, just do some research.”
“No.” Chuzheng walked out with Li Tang in tow.
The Demon Monarch’s brow throbbed with tension.
“Alright, alright, I agree.” Was this Half-Demon really that important to her?
“Pleasure doing business.”
“Pleasure doing business.” The Demon Monarch’s expression darkened again. “What do you want to do?”
“First, we deal with the other Demon Monarchs, and unify the Demon n.”
“…” Did she realize how formidable the other Demon Monarchs in Central City were?
What Chuzheng replied with was still ‘that’s not for you to worry about.’
The Demon Monarch was on the verge of losing his mind. What was he supposed to consider?
The content of the deal with Chuzheng — she could open the seal and get them out, but she would upy the position of the Demon Monarch for a few days.
As for when she would return it, that would depend on her needs.
Considering there was more than one Demon Monarch, the Demon Monarch thought it was merely an empty title. Let her have it.
But then…
She was going to take out the other Demon Monarchs?
If there were only one Demon Monarch left, that would no longer be an empty title.
Three dayster.
Central City fell into panic as one Demon Monarch after another disappeared mysteriously, with no signs of struggle or knowledge about when they vanished.<div>
And now, the Demon Monarchs confined in the dungeons were staring at each other, bewildered.
“What did you bring us here for!” a certain Demon Monarch roared.
Demon Monarch: “…” It wasn’t me who caught you!
She said she’d deal with them by just capturing them, why not kill them!?<div>
The Demon Monarch left the dungeon and found Chuzheng: “Why not kill them?”
“That’s up to you.” Chuzheng answered casually.
“If we don’t kill them now, when they leave this ce, do you think there will be a good oue?”
“That’s not for me to consider.” Chuzheng said: “I’m merely borrowing the position of the Demon Monarch temporarily.”
Demon Monarch: “…”
If he’d been doubtful before about her ‘temporary borrowing’ being an excuse, now he was suddenly starting to believe her.
The Demon Monarch stormed off, now tasked with figuring out how to handle the several Demon Monarchs in the dungeon.
He definitely couldn’t let it be discovered that he had captured the Demon Monarchs… damn it! It wasn’t him who did it!
Li Tang entered,ing face-to-face with the departing Demon Monarch. The Demon Monarch nced at him and hurried off.
Li Tang closed the door, then moved forward to embrace Chuzheng from behind: “Are you really going to open the seal for the Demon n?”
“Mhm.”
“How are you going to open the seal?”
“At your father’s grave, I saw a book that records the sealing of the Demon n.”<div>
Books?
Li Tang turned to face Chuzheng, gripping her shoulders, “You don’t actually know how to open the Demon n’s seal?”
“I don’t.”
“…” Li Tang’s mouth twitched, you’re so boldly negotiating terms with the Demon Monarch without knowing?
“What if it can’t be opened?”
“Then we’ll just teleport them out one by one,” Chuzheng said, “It’s not difficult.”
Opening the seal is simply about changing the process from teleporting one person to several.
Without opening the seal, it would just mean teleporting is slower and the strength of the demons being transported is limited.
There was nothing to be conflicted about.
“…” Li Tang didn’t know what to say.
“Why do you want to open the seal?” He was somewhat perplexed; with her power, she didn’t need the help of the Demon n.
“There are too many, can’t beat them.” So many people attacking her alone, and they even interfered with her squandering, causing her to double up every time, intolerable.
Li Tang: “…” She could lose?<div>
“Sometimes I really…” Li Tang shook his head, “don’t understand you.”
He lowered his head, pressing against Chuzheng’s shoulder, “I really want to protect you, but it seems that it’s always you protecting me.”
Li Tang’s voice was low.
Sometimes he really felt useless, wishing he could sumb to his Heart Demon, so he could be more powerful.
However, he knew all too well, if he were truly controlled by the Heart Demon, he would lose her.
If the Heart Demon wasn’t her at all…
“Come on.” Chuzheng patted his shoulder to cheer him up.
Li Tang, startled by the two words of encouragement, could no longer speak what he had in mind. He turned his head, his lips grazing Chuzheng’s neck, and after a moment, a burning kiss fell.
Kissing down her pulsing artery.
Chuzheng’s back against the table, the heat on her neck began to spread.
At first, it was like fireflies, a faint glow beautiful enough to make one’s heart tremble, and then it turned into a spark, with the potential to start a wildfire.
Li Tang’s kisses went from tentative to plundering, in his hazy eyes, a fierce fire was burning, as if it wanted to engulf herpletely.
Chuzheng’s breathing became a little difficult, her body started to weaken, she tried to push him away.<div>
The man who seemed to have no strength before, who could easily be pushed away, now couldn’t be moved at all.
Li Tang slowed down his kissing, his palm moving from her waist to her back.
He murmured softly, “Can I have it?”
“Have what?” Chuzheng’s eyes remained calm, “Let me go first.” She was almost out of breath.
Li Tang paused, lowering his head to kiss her twice, his voice husky, “No, it’s nothing.”
It’s okay if she didn’t understand, he could take his time.
“Can you let go of me now?”
Li Tang pressed her onto the table, leaning over her body, “I’ll let go of you in a bit, okay?”
Chuzheng calmly refused, “Not okay.”
Li Tang’s face showed a hint of a smile, suddenly pulling her up, and with a twist, Chuzheng found herself sitting in Li Tang’s embrace.
“Have you had enough fun?” Chuzheng put her hand up to block him.
“Not yet.” Li Tang kissed her fingers, Chuzheng withdrew her hand, and Li Tang instantly held her tight, “I want to hold you like this, without letting go, so maybe you’ll always be with me… always…”
“You’re annoying.”
“Okay, okay, I won’t kiss anymore, I’ll just hold you,” Li Tang’s tone was cajoling, taking a step back, “Is this okay?”
“I’m still busy.” It’s not like we’re children in kindergarten needing to y kissy-face and lift-me-up.
“Just for a little while.” Li Tang buried his face in her hair, “Just for a little while, that’s all.”
Chuzheng hesitated, then raised her hand to touch his head.
Li Tang’s hair was smooth but not soft.
Chuzheng lost interest after touching it a couple of times and simply ced her hand on his shoulder.
The two appeared to be embracing each other intimately.
The room seemed to be paused by someone, frozen at this instant.
