Chapter 852 - 781
Chapter 852: Chapter 781
The Demon King’s gaze fell upon Li Mu, whose eyes were evasive, not daring to meet the Demon King’s eyes.
To put it bluntly, the truth is, when the Demon King was plotting against Bai Wei and the Empress Dowager, Li Mu and Lady Yue were also plotting against the Demon King, leading to the current scene.
The Formation had been modified, making it the most tyrannical one, scattering all souls within it.
Including the Demon King.
“Father, don’t listen to her; my mother never intended for anything to happen to you. She just wanted to capture them,”
His mother never intended to harm his father; she had said so, she actually still loved him.
“Are you deceiving your father or yourself? Can’t you see he’s already in unbearable pain? Are you blind? Self-comforting?”
Can’t you see this Demon King is in such pain he’s ready to self-destruct, yet you’re pretending not to see it?
“I…” Li Mu couldn’t utter a single word. “I’ll go and ask my mother.”
His mother wouldn’t deceive him, she wouldn’t.
“There’s no need to ask.”
At this moment, Lady Yue appeared dressed in red, as bright as blood.
So bright that it was impossible to look away, in the middle of her brow, there was a red mole, looking very enchanting.
“Lady Yue!”
When the Demon King saw Lady Yue, it was as if he suddenly saw something awakened and crawled through the door, quickly reaching the Barrier; it was at the palace gate there.
“Demon King, did you ever think of today when you killed him back then?”
Looking at the suffering Demon King, it was like seeing an ant unable to struggle, just like back then. Why did her heart feel so relieved?
The Demon King was stunned, looking at Lady Yue in disbelief. What was Lady Yue saying?
The Demon King’s bewildered expression fell into Lady Yue’s eyes, and she almost wanted to laugh.
He actually forgot, he actually forgot? How ironic.
“You actually forgot? You forgot the year you met me, I was originally a princess of a country, with a fine match waiting for me.”
That year, she was also a princess cherished in the palm of her father’s hand.
She had a childhood sweetheart, who would bring ten miles of red bridal sedan as soon as her birthday was over and marry her.
But…
That year, she was foolish, she was naive, and ended up saving a disaster.
Which was the injured Demon King.
Every day and night afterward, she regretted saving him back then.
The result was her beloved was killed, her country perished, and she became a Princess of the Defeated Country.
Even though her fall had nothing to do with the Demon King, she still directly blamed him. Without a reason.
It was the most direct transference of anger; she hated, but she knew she was just a human being, completely unable to do anything to him, unless she wasn’t human.
She pretended to love him, pretended to be jealous and argue with him.
Pretending for so long, she didn’t even know what was real anymore.
But still, she knew she hated.
Simply put, Li Mu’s birth was something she didn’t like, but after he was born, that small bundle made it impossible for her to harbor any dislike.
She loved this child, but that didn’t mean she liked the Demon King; she hated, she hated the Demon King with a lifelong hatred.
“Lady Yue, didn’t you say the past is in the past?”
The Demon King’s eyes widened, never expecting Lady Yue would still remember the past.
“How can I convince you that I didn’t do anything to him? Even back then, your country’s downfall had nothing to do with me!”
The Demon King saw the hatred in Lady Yue’s eyes, so glaring, realizing that the happiness he thought he had was merely his own wishful thinking.
That Lady Yue, who didn’t want to be with him at all back then, was the real one; but the later one who was frail and seemed to want to be jealous, was that the fake one?
“Did you ever love me at all?”
The Demon King wanted to know if Lady Yue had ever loved him, even if just a little bit.
“No.”
Lady Yue blurted it out without hesitation. She never loved him. Absolutely not.
How could she love a murderer? Absolutely not.
She hated him, in this life, the next life, for all eternity, she hated him.
Hated him for ruining her happiness, hated him for making her a Princess of the Defeated Country.
“And you all…” Lady Yue’s gaze shifted to Bai Wei and the Empress Dowager. “Didn’t you say I was an ant? Didn’t you look down on me? How does it feel now, being burned by flames, feel good?
Unexpected, wasn’t it, that the ant you belittled eventually killed you?”
This day, she’d really waited for it for too long.
So long that she almost couldn’t wait anymore.
Fortunately, everything was still in time.
Still in time.
Now, everything was within her control.
In the Demon King’s study, she found this Formation, spent years mastering it, and ultimately turned herself into a Half-demon.
Finally, not long ago, she orchestrated a plan to make the Demon King give her his demonic power.
She used all the demonic power to drive this Formation, aiming to obliterate them entirely.
“Even now, I still look down on you.”
Bai Wei slowly stood up, the feeling of flames burning still remained, but after taking Bai Zhi’s pills, it wasn’t unbearable.
“You didn’t even understand the situation and were used by others.”
Bai Wei couldn’t believe Lady Yue had the intelligence to set up such a Formation without them noticing.
There must be someone behind her.
“How could I not understand? I understood very clearly that it was he who ruined my country, and it was he who killed the person I loved.
I want you all buried together!”
Lady Yue’s eyes flashed with madness, all of you die, all of you go die.
“I didn’t…” The Demon King’s voice was low; he was greatly shocked.
He thought Lady Yue really loved him; otherwise, why would she get upset with him, why would she make him have only her?
Why would she retreat from the world?
He raised his head and looked at Lady Yue. “You said you liked me, didn’t you? You could feel how good I was to you. Isn’t that right?”
“No, no, no, that was my lie to you; if I didn’t lie to you, how would you believe me? How would my plan succeed? I’m telling you I hate you; I hate you to death.” Lady Yue’s emotions became agitated too.
Bai Zhi and Moh Li’s gazes, however, weren’t on them; they were now focused on breaking the Formation. As for the love and hate of this family, they weren’t all that interested.
“If you truly hate me, why are you so agitated? Lady Yue, the person you liked back then rebelled, and secretly colluded with a Great Demon. Promised to divide the world after succeeding.
By the time I knew, I couldn’t save your family anymore; I could only save you. Think carefully, was it because that memory was too painful that you chose to forget it.”
She actually wasn’t unaware back then; she deliberately let herself forget because it was too painful.
Simply put, she didn’t want to face it, choosing an answer she was willing to accept.
Which was that person hadn’t wronged her, hadn’t harmed her family, and only then would her heart feel a bit better.
