Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 583: The Ceremony Is Suspended
“…” The lips of the Huai King turned blue and purple, his hands trembled slightly, and his chest almost exploded. This was the most vicious insult he had ever suffered in his life. What was even more heartbreaking than suffering such insults was that he couldn’t even say anything back.
This was a “reminder” on the surface, but in fact it was a loud curse directly slapped on the faces of the Huai King and the princes of the East Seat, which stunned the princes and families of the West Seat. The faces of the princes of the East Seat were uglier than each other... and some princes, even in this situation, began to regret their attachment to the Huai King.
Yun Che’s words were not just a curse... but also a heavy yoke that was put on these princes who had already had different intentions, making them feel uncomfortable.
“Huai King, and all the kings present, is there anything wrong with what I, Yun Che, said? If there is any mistake, please feel free to correct it.” Yun Che glanced at the East Seat and said slowly.
The Huai King, the Zhong King... and the other kings who were initially so aggressive at the East Seat were all silent, not one of them said anything to refute or rebuke. At this moment, their state of mind was like being fed shit, but not only could they not spit it out, they could not resist, but they had to nod their heads in agreement to admit that it was right to feed them...
The Little Demon Queen had been silently looking at Yun Che, her eyes revealing a complexity that others could not understand. In this Demon Queen Hall, she had been prepared to deal with everything, but she did not expect that everything she expected would not happen, and this ceremony became a performance by Yun Che alone. The Huai King, who even she had to call "terrible", who made all the guardian families unable to contend with him, was defeated because of this "general from heaven" Yun Che, and the seven guardian family heads who were feared by the world almost became clowns.
Under her gaze, Yun Che suddenly turned around, facing her, and picked up the Demon King Seal again in his hand: "Little Demon Queen, please forgive Yun Che's previous willfulness. Yun Che will now return this Demon King Seal to the Little Demon Queen."
After saying this, he slowly stepped forward and held the Demon King Seal in front of the Little Demon Queen with both hands.
The two of them looked at each other at close range, and Yun Che's mind uncontrollably emerged the naked body of the girl in the mist that night. A strange color suddenly flashed in the depths of his eyes, and even the corners of his mouth twitched. The trace of obscenity in his eyes was clearly captured by the Little Demon Queen's sharp eyes. There was a moment of coldness in her eyes, which almost made Yun Che shiver. She did not take the Demon King Seal immediately, but said calmly: "Do you not need to continue with the request you just made?"
"No need." Yun Che shook his head: "The Demon King Seal is originally the property of the Demon King family, and it is only natural for it to return to its original owner. However, this Demon King Seal carries my grandfather's loyalty and life, and my grandfather's efforts and the treatment he has received over the years make me feel a little bit uneasy, so I just used the Demon King Seal to ask the seven family heads to apologize to my grandfather, and at the same time remind some people not to forget their duties and lose their conscience... As the descendant of the Demon King, I don't want to see the things that my grandfather used his life to protect encounter the plots of some evil people!"
"Since I have reminded you, it is enough. Otherwise, if you see faces that are hesitant and uncomfortable when facing the oath of allegiance, wouldn't it make the Little Demon Queen and all the people in the world who are loyal to the Little Demon Queen sick." Yun Che's few words without a hurry were undoubtedly several more knives stabbed at "some people".
The Little Demon Queen reached out her hand and gently took the Demon King Seal. She held it in her hand carefully and gently. Her expression was calm, but Yun Che, who was close to her, still saw the slight turmoil in her pupils.
As the only person left in the lineage of the Demon King, no one really knew what the loss and recovery of the Demon King Seal meant to her, and no one knew what kind of throbbing she felt in her heart at this moment. Feeling the burning temperature of the Demon King Seal and the pure Golden Crow aura, she gently closed her eyes, then turned around and walked towards the throne.
In front of the throne, the Little Demon Queen turned around and held the Demon King Seal in her hand. Her white and slender hands and white wrists were as pure and beautiful as the purest and flawless jade in the world under the clear flame of the Demon King Seal... But in the entire Demon King Hall, it is estimated that only Yun Che still has the mind to appreciate the Little Demon Queen's arms.
"The return of the Demon King Seal after a hundred years of loss is a great blessing. The Yun family has made great contributions, and no one can deny it! For the great contributions of the Yun family, I will give a generous reward, and I will also give an explanation for the injustice that the Yun family has suffered in the past hundred years! The right and wrong that has been buried in it... I will also find out clearly!"
The Little Demon Queen glanced at the hall, and everyone who came into contact with her eyes was stunned, and even held their breath. She embraced her arms, and the Demon King Seal disappeared in her hand: "I have sworn to my father's spirit tablet that I will do everything to find the Demon King Seal, and I will go to pay tribute to the late emperor on the day I find it. The oath I made to my father cannot be violated. Therefore, this ceremony will be temporarily suspended today. Please return to your residence first. The ceremony will continue in three days!"
"Ah? This..." The Little Demon Queen suddenly announced that the ceremony was temporarily suspended. People were caught off guard, but they also felt that it seemed reasonable. With such an important item as the Demon King Seal returning, it is reasonable for the Little Demon Queen to go to pay tribute to the First Demon King and inform the Little Demon King of this matter as soon as possible.
(This chapter is not yet finished, please turn the page). Moreover, the Little Demon Queen should also need enough time to digest what happened today and think about how to deal with it.
"The body of the demon king will be temporarily placed in the Yun family, and will be buried on a chosen day with the highest royal ceremony. In addition, after fifteen days, the Golden Crow Thunder Flame Valley will be opened again, and the Yun family can select thirty people to enter. Other families and the royal palace must have been prepared, and the Yun family must also prepare as early as possible within these fifteen days. Within these three days, this queen must quietly pay tribute to my father, and no one, no matter how big the matter is, can disturb me!"
"Everyone, please leave, and we will discuss important matters in three days!"
After the little demon queen finished speaking, without waiting for anyone to speak, she waved her gray long sleeves, and her whole body was wrapped in flames. When the flames dissipated, her figure had completely disappeared there.
……………
……………
The little demon queen left cleanly and neatly, leaving everyone staring at each other, at a loss. Yun Che was also stunned for a moment… He had laid out the prelude perfectly enough. With the Demon King Seal in hand, the Little Demon Queen could easily suppress public opinion against Prince Huai and others, making them not have the courage to act rashly at least in the short term. But after getting the Demon King Seal, she chose to stop the Demon Queen Ceremony and left directly… just to pay tribute to the late Demon King.
With the character of the Little Demon Queen, she shouldn’t act like this.
As soon as the Little Demon Queen left, the hall was full of discussions. Yun Qinghong stood up and looked at his father's body in the center of the hall, feeling an unspeakable sadness in his heart: "Everyone, let's go... It's time to take my father's body home."
Yun Qinghong's gentle words made the elders of the Yun family no longer able to control their emotions. They all rushed to the center of the hall like crazy and fell in front of Yun Canghai's body...
"Master!!"
"Master!!"
In their endless excitement, they didn't care about their image and dignity. They cried and cried... and then cried uncontrollably. Today, they experienced the most intense joy and sorrow in their lives. Recalling the bad news of a hundred years and everything that the Yun family had suffered in the past hundred years, no matter how strong their will was, they couldn't suppress their emotions from being out of control at this moment.
"Yun Duanshui... Meet the Young Patriarch!" Second Elder Yun Duanshui bowed deeply to Yun Che, his face full of excitement and respect that he would only show when facing Yun Qinghong and Yun Canghai: "I didn't know that the Young Patriarch had returned before, and I was so negligent and disrespectful. I really deserve death."
"Second Elder, what are you talking about..."
Just as Yun Che was about to step forward to help Yun Duanshui up, a large number of elders and disciples of the Yun family knelt down beside him: "Meet the Young Patriarch!"
Today, Yun Che completely reversed the fate of the Yun family, which should have been bleak, and also eliminated a storm that was about to fall. Everyone in the Demon King Hall today was shocked by him, let alone the people of the Yun family. Although he was only in his twenties and had only been back in the Yun family for three months, they all knelt willingly and sincerely. Some elders and young disciples who were rude to him on weekdays were even more terrified.
"As expected of the grandson of the demon king and the descendant of the head of the Yun family, I have lived for more than a thousand years. Today, I have finally understood what a great man is." Qin Zheng stood beside Yun Qinghong, looking at Yun Che with a sigh on his face.
"Master Qin, you are too kind." Yun Qinghong bowed to him solemnly: "I thank Master Qin for speaking out for justice just now. Master Qin, rest assured, if the seven clans dare to retaliate against you, I will not sit idly by."
"Hehe, I am just redeeming my sins. Master Yun does not blame me, which is already grateful in my heart. I cannot bear the word 'thank you'." Qin Zheng waved his hand and smiled calmly: "As for Master Yun's worry, there is no need. I will be buried in a few decades, and they don't have to do anything to me."
"Congratulations to Master Yun for finding his beloved son... With this descendant, the Yun family will surely be able to restore its former glory in the near future." A city lord squeezed forward and congratulated Yun Qinghong.
"I don't agree with what City Lord Yue said. The young master of the Yun family is only 22 years old this year, which makes us all admire and ashamed. The Yun family has the Yun family master and Yun Che, plus the respect and promise of the Little Demon Queen. It is more than just restoring the glory of the past, hahahaha!"
"Brother Lin is right! Master Yun, congratulations!"
………………
The heroes from all sides congratulated Yun Qinghong and tried to get close to him, because anyone could see that the Yun family would soon rise in an extremely powerful way. Yun Xiao was crowned king, the Yun family received the public promise of the Little Demon Queen, Yun Qinghong's seriously injured body miraculously recovered, and their lost prestige would be restored immediately, and even greatly increased... More importantly, the Yun family had a young master who made them all sigh with admiration.
It would be extremely difficult for the Yun family not to rise.
Although the Yun family is the weakest among the twelve families in terms of comprehensive strength, at this moment, (this chapter is not yet finished, please turn the page) no one dares to imagine how prosperous the Yun family will be in a few years. The Yun family is surrounded by heroes from all over the world, and there are still groups of people desperately trying to squeeze in to talk to Yun Qinghong or Yun Che. King Huai looked at them coldly, and his gloomy expression seemed to be completely frozen on his face, and he could not relax no matter what. "Yun... Che..." In the gap between his teeth that were bitten, two words with endless hatred and coldness came out with great difficulty. He had been preparing and forbearing for so many years, just for this day! But in the blink of an eye, he was defeated.
His plan was only carried out to the first step... and this was the only step, but the result was that it was a stone's throw. It not only allowed the Yun family to show off their prestige, but also cost them a lot of face and the Purple Veined Divine Crystal.
"Prince Huai, what should we... do now?" Prince Zhong walked over and whispered. He looked in the direction of Yun Che, also gritting his teeth. They all knew very well that the reason for today's complete defeat was all because of Yun Che... just because of him.
"Hiss..." King Huai gritted his teeth. As his chest rose and fell, a ray of cold air escaped from his teeth: "Let's go!"
Prince Huai turned his gloomy face, ignored anyone, and walked stiffly out of the hall. Seeing his actions, the seven heads of the families who were in a state of confusion, as well as the princes of the East Palace also stood up and followed him away in disgrace.
"Congratulations to His Highness Prince Huai and the seven family heads!"
As soon as King Huai took a few steps, Yun Che's loud voice came from behind him. Yun Che stared at King Huai's back, glanced at the heads of the seven clans over there with his peripheral vision, and said with a smile: "But there is one thing. I, Yun Che, still need to remind me that the purple-veined divine crystals you lost to my Yun family must be delivered to my Yun family’s residence on time. The entire Illusory Demon Realm should know about this immediately. I think your majestic palace will. You and the guardian family will not lose their most basic integrity and face for a few kilograms of purple veined divine crystal and let the world look down upon them, right?"
Prince Huai's footsteps stopped, and his body froze there motionless for three breaths. Then he suppressed the urge to kill Yun Che immediately at all costs, took steps again, and walked out of the Demon Emperor's Hall without saying a word. .
"Hmph!" Yun Che coldly snorted as he watched Prince Huai leave with cold eyes. He could clearly feel the murderous intent coming from Prince Huai just now.
"You actually provoked so many enemies in one day! These people are still the top figures in the Illusory Demon Realm." Jasmine sneered: "It really suits your temperament of seeking death wherever you go."
"It concerns my family, as well as my grandfather's honor and will. Even if I am digging my own grave, I have to do it after all." Yun Che sighed, and then grinned relaxedly: "But in such a crisis Compared to the two years in the Taikoo Xuan Ark, it is nothing."
After saying that, Yun Che frowned slightly and whispered: "After the Little Demon Queen got the Demon Emperor's Seal, she suddenly stopped the ceremony and left. What was the reason..."
