Demon King’s Pampered Wife - C191 Xue Yi's Help(part Ii)
As they got closer and closer to the Elf Kingdom, the number of races that Zi Ling saw increased. She walked on foot, not in a hurry, but secretly paying attention to the movements and words of these foreign races.
Ever since her battle with the Demon Area’s Duke Ming, Zi Ling had made him her mortal enemy. Now that she saw a demon moving quickly through the crowd, she paid attention to it.
Although the beast took human form and used a hood to cover its face, the demonic spiritual energy wasn’t able to escape from the purple silk.
The demon quickly disappeared into the crowd. Zi Ling’s expression changed and she stopped moving. She changed her direction and headed in the direction the demon had left.
She didn’t get too close, but the stealth technique allowed her to completely melt into the forest.
After the monster left the crowd it turned into a mass of black fog and went back and forth in the forest. At this moment, in the depths of the forest, a man wearing a red robe was standing with his hands behind his back.
“My lord, I have already heard what you wanted me to know. The Infernal domain’s Duke Ming did indeed appear in the capital, but for some reason, he had already left the capital a few days ago.”
Only at this moment did the man in the red robe turn his head. A sharp light flashed through his slender eyes. “I didn’t expect him to leave so soon …” As he spoke to here, his long eyebrows slightly raised, as if he was pondering something.
Zi Ling suddenly stopped in her tracks. She did not expect that the one who would appear in front of her was not the Demon Region’s Duke Ming, but Feng Yuan. Since she wasn’t the Wise King of the Infernal domain, Zi Ling no longer had the thought of continuing to spy on him. She turned around and left.
Feng Yuan raised his head and looked in the direction of Zi Ling before waving his hand.
In the blink of an eye, the demon beast that had taken the form of a human turned into a ball of black gas and disappeared behind Feng Yuan.
Zi Ling slowly walked back the way she came from. Not long later, she heard light footsteps coming from behind her.
“Miss Ye, I did not expect us to be so fated to meet again.” Feng Yuan greeted with a smile.
Zi Ling was slightly surprised. She stopped and turned around, “When did you discover me?” From the moment she discovered the demon, she had released the restraining breath technique. She hadn’t even discovered the purple silk when Demon Region’s Duke Ming and the others had entered the palace to pick the Everlasting Flower. How did this Feng Yuan discover it?
Feng Yuan chuckled and increased his pace. He quickly arrived beside Zi Ling. “This is my clan’s secret technique. It can see through all disguises in the surroundings.”
Zi Ling’s brows relaxed as she said in relief, “So that’s how it is!”
Feng Yuan’s gaze swept across Zi Ling’s face before he smiled and said, “The illusion will open soon. Why don’t we go together?”
Zi Ling did not reply immediately. Instead, she cast her gaze towards Feng Yuan. She knew that this smiling master was definitely not simple.
Perhaps it was because Zi Ling’s gaze was too dazzling, but Feng Yuan’s smile deepened. “Miss is looking at me like this. Is it because I’m too handsome?”
Zi Ling smiled lightly, “I still want to live for a little longer. Let’s part ways here.” After he finished speaking, he ignored Feng Yuan’s reaction and turned around to leave.
When Feng Yuan saw Zi Ling leave, the smile on his face slowly faded, and the light in his eyes brightened slightly. And then he pretended not to understand and shouted, “Miss Ye, Miss Ye!”
Hearing the call from behind him, Zi Ling didn’t pay attention to him and continued walking forward.
Whether they were friends or enemies, Zi Ling could not take the risk. At the very least, with her current strength, she was still unable to kill the Wise King of the Demon Area, so she had to be careful in all matters.
Even though the people in the surroundings increased in number, he did not stop. The two of them continued to advance in the same direction, one in front and one behind, maintaining the distance between them. Occasionally, a few shouts that made Zi Ling frown could be heard.
Although the previously deserted road was not congested at this time, there were still people coming and going. On this road, a dozen men surrounded a beautiful woman.
The beautiful girl wore white clothes, and her eyes were pure. Her temperament was also pure white like snow, without a speck of dust, as if she was a fairy that had left the mortal world for a long time.
Xue Yi tightly bit her lower lip, almost biting the skin off. She stubbornly stared at the people around her while her fingers tightly gripped the great sword at her waist. “If you don’t move away, I’m going to make my move.”
She had just finished speaking when the crowd burst into laughter. “Beauty, with your talent, if you enter our Joyful Union Sect, you will definitely be able to break through to the Xuan General level very soon …” One of the men reached out and tried to tug at a snowsuit.
“Swish …”
With a flash of cold light, the treasured sword directly appeared in front of the man. The man’s face instantly stiffened; he was also a middle stage Mysterious Master, yet he did not react in time when the man pulled out the sword.
His face alternated between green and white for a long time before he finally asked in anger, “Beauty, although you are powerful, you are only a middle level mysterious master. We have four mysterious masters in our group. Do you think you can escape?”
The Acacia Faction brazenly tried to rob him, but the onlookers turned a blind eye and quickly distanced themselves from them, so that Xue Yi was simply unable to ask for help.
Right at this moment, Zi Ling and Feng Yuan walked past them one after the other. Zi Ling didn’t even glance at them as she walked forward evenly.
Feng Yuan crossed his arms in front of his chest as he leisurely followed behind Zi Ling, occasionally calling out to her. At this moment, when he saw the snow-covered clothes that surrounded her, he made a ‘tsk tsk’ sound, “You’re quite a beauty!”
Even though he said that, his footsteps did not stop at all, and he continued forward as if he was watching a show.
Xue Yi was extremely anxious. She raised her head and saw Zi Ling’s silhouette. She could not contain her joy and shouted, “Miss Ye, Miss Ye …”
When Zi Ling heard the voice, she felt that it sounded familiar. In the blink of an eye, she met Xue Yi’s gaze.
She had not expected to see Xue Yi here. She only needed a cursory glance to know the situation Xue Yi was in.
The Acacia Faction members also turned their heads over because of the snow robe’s shouts, and when they saw Zi Ling’s face, all of their expressions were stunned for a moment. Some of the weaker ones even had a few drops of sparkling liquid flowing out of their mouth.
“You, stop!” When the people from Joyful Union Sect saw Zi Ling’s beauty, how could they let her go? They immediately sent out people to capture Zi Ling.
Zi Ling’s expression chilled as a dangerous light flashed in her eyes.
Feng Yuan, on the other hand, laughed and without even seeing him move, the two profound masters and several profound practitioners fell to the ground.
Zi Ling coldly swept her gaze over the crowd. Her gaze then fell upon the snow-clothed figure. After that, she expressionlessly withdrew her gaze and continued walking forward.
A trace of resentment flashed across her heart as a faint trace of resentment flashed through her heart. Although she was worried that Zi Ling’s strength was insufficient to create a trace of guilt, when she saw that Zi Ling did not have any intention of attacking, that shame turned into resentment.
Although Zi Ling had saved those people from the sacred land of the Qi family because she owed Qi Hao a favor, she didn’t have much of a friendship with Xue Yi, as the other side didn’t know of her own strength. In that case, she had stopped him from causing trouble, and if he was really weak, the result could be imagined, thus she didn’t have any good impression of Xue Yi.
In the blink of an eye, the Acacia Faction members suffered a great loss. Just as they were about to retreat, they saw Feng Yuan wave his hand, “You guys continue, continue …” After she finished speaking, she continued to follow behind Zi Ling with a smile.
The rest of the Acacia Faction was stunned for a moment. Only after seeing the two walk away in succession did they confirm that they really did not want to take action. Only then did their gazes once again fall onto the snow-white clothes.
Xue Yi’s eyes flickered, her pure and pristine temperament was tainted by a hint of fireworks. She stared at the backs of Feng Yuan and Zi Ling and bit her lips. This time, traces of blood seeped out of her rosy lips.
Who was that man? Why was he following her closely?
Feng Yuan and Qi Hao’s auras were completely different. One of them was elegant and the other was evil and charming, but they were both dragons among men. Why was it that in their eyes, there was only her?
A layer of mist covered Xue Yi’s eyes. Although Feng Yuan had helped her solve a few problems earlier, from her point of view, he had only taught those who were blind enough to provoke Zi Ling a lesson. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he conveniently take care of all the people surrounding her?
Of course, Zi Ling didn’t know that Xue Yi had so much mental activity. It didn’t matter even if she knew. She didn’t have the energy to care about everyone’s thoughts.
Feng Yuan suddenly quickened his pace and got a bit closer to Zi Ling. However, he still walked one after the other. He leisurely crossed his arms against his chest and his gaze landed on the graceful figure in front of him.
“Oi, you just saw me die and didn’t save me. Who knows, maybe I will hate you to death in my heart.” Feng Yuan said with a smile.
Zi Ling did not stop and replied, “Didn’t you just treat the fairer sex with tender affection?”
“Am I being tender to the fairer sex? I was teaching those blind people to be interested in you. ”
“What’s the difference?” There was no trace of emotion in Zi Ling’s voice.
Feng Yuan shrugged helplessly. Fine, in the end, he still helped that girl solve some problems.
“Then do you know what a woman’s heart is like? Just now, I saw that girl’s eyes …” Before Feng Yuan could finish speaking, Zi Ling suddenly turned her head.
“What does that have to do with me? “She wants to seek revenge for what happened today. As long as she can defeat me, she can do as she pleases!”
After she finished speaking, the purple silk moved even faster and disappeared from Feng Yuan’s sight in the blink of an eye.
Feng Yuan rubbed his eyes. The purple silk had already disappeared from his sight. He opened his mouth in shock. Wasn’t this too fast?
However, he agreed with the other party’s words. In this lifetime, even if you didn’t provoke others, there would always be some arrogant people who would provoke you. As long as the other party couldn’t defeat you, what was there to worry about?
He stared at the direction where the purple silk disappeared and the corner of his mouth curled up. She was indeed an interesting beauty …
While Zi Ling and the others were heading towards the Elf Kingdom, the various powers in the Royal City were already in an uproar.
“The illusions were opened earlier, and many powers have already gathered.” This news swept through the Elf Kingdom like a whirlwind, and soon after, the decades-old and desolate Illusory Paradise was occupied by the various powers.
At this time, Zi Ling still didn’t know that the Gate of Illusion had been opened. She was wondering if the Shadow Devil had successfully attracted the attention of Qi Hao’s opponent, and whether he could rush back before the Gate of Illusion opened.
When she stepped into the Elf Kingdom, Zi Ling discovered that the crowded streets had become much emptier. Just as she was wondering, she saw a group of people hurrying over from the left.
With her sharp eyes, she soon heard some vague words, “Illusion …” “Open …”
