"You broke your promise." The demon god raised an eyebrow, accusing Liu Lanyan of her crimes.
"What did I do?" Liu Lanyan asked the demon god angrily. Why was she disobeying her?
"What did you say?" The demon god held Liu Lanyan tightly with both arms, not relaxing his grip at all. She could keep a distance from him, but she absolutely could not be too far away.
"What did I say?" Liu Lanyan asked curiously.
"You said you wouldn't interfere." The Demon God frowned as he thought of Liu Lanyan's initial promise.
Was it because he trusted her too much that she was able to "show off" so recklessly in the end?
“I didn’t say that,” Liu Lanyan innocently reiterated her stance. “I said I wouldn’t get close; I’d stand far away.”
The demon god was speechless with anger, unable to find any way to refute Liu Lanyan's words.
Because Liu Lanyan was not wrong at all; she did keep her promise and stayed far away, without getting close.
The problem is, even without getting close, she still made her move in the end.
In such a contest of strength, there was no need to get close. The situation was too urgent just now, and he never expected that Liu Lanyan was playing word games with him.
"So, I didn't say anything wrong, and you can't punish me." Liu Lanyan pressed her advantage, raising her head slightly.
The demon god was both amused and exasperated by Liu Lanyan's antics; this girl had actually been waiting for him here.
In that case...
The demon god smiled slightly, and that smile sent a chill down Liu Lanyan's spine. A bad thought suddenly popped into her mind: what evil plan was he thinking of now?
"Lanyan, shall I let you bite me back?" The Demon God looked at Liu Lanyan with a serious expression and generously invited her.
Liu Lanyan felt like she was going to vomit blood and wanted to slam the guy in front of her against the wall.
Could he be any more shameless?
He was so affectionate just a moment ago, how did he turn into a rogue and scoundrel in an instant?
What kind of thing is he anyway?!
Liu Lanyan was speechless and felt an urge to go crazy.
"Alright, if you don't want to bite, then don't. I'll remember this for you. If you ever want to 'get back at me' in the future, you can come to me anytime," the demon god said seriously.
Liu Lanyan couldn't help but roll her eyes at the roof. How many people in the world could say such shameless things with such righteous indignation?
As for the demon god, she had nothing but admiration.
How could such a monster exist in the world?
"Tell me, how are you doing now?" The demon god stopped teasing Liu Lanyan, his earlier worry and fear subsided, and turned the topic to the main point.
"I'm a little tired," Liu Lanyan murmured.
"Tired?" The demon god raised an eyebrow, looking incredulous. "Just tired?"
"I do cultivate the power of light, but it's not very difficult for me," Liu Lanyan said with a smile, knowing what the Demon God was worried about.
The demon god didn't speak, but merely twitched the corner of his lips, revealing a strange smile.
Liu Lanyan was speechless for a moment, and said helplessly, "Okay, okay, I am a little uncomfortable, but I promise it's not serious. It's within my control."
"You're not lying to me?" the demon god pressed, demanding Liu Lanyan's assurance.
“I’m absolutely not lying to you.” Liu Lanyan stared intently into the Demon God’s eyes and said with certainty, “I can definitely control it.”
The demon god stared at Liu Lanyan, trying to get a clear understanding from her eyes. After a long while, he nodded and said, "Okay."
"How are you?" Liu Lanyan hurriedly asked the demon god, telling him not to keep asking her about his condition. He hadn't told her yet.
"I didn't even have to lift a finger at Hai Shi (9-11 PM), what do you think I'll do?" the demon god asked with a smile, but the smile made Liu Lanyan's heart tremble.
They muttered to themselves, wondering what the meaning of his smile was.
She just felt sorry for him.
"Alright, it's alright, it's alright now." The Demon God couldn't help but laugh when he saw Liu Lanyan's depressed expression. He gently coaxed Liu Lanyan, afraid that she would be angry.
“This incident was clearly premeditated.” The Demon God changed the subject. “When I arrived, I saw the Liu Xinya and Liu Xinrong sisters escaping from the forbidden area.”
"It's them again?" Liu Lanyan frowned. "They're cockroaches. Why are they everywhere?"
Liu Lanyan didn't have much of a liking or dislike for Liu Xinrong and Liu Xinya. She used to just find them somewhat annoying, but since they couldn't threaten her, she naturally didn't care much.
But now, Liu Lanyan's opinion of the Liu Xinya sisters has completely changed.
She wouldn't mind if they caused her trouble; she'd just take it on.
The problem is, the trouble they've caused is now directly affecting the Demon God, so she can't let them live.
"What? You've got your eye on her?" The Demon God knew Liu Lanyan well and immediately sensed the killing intent in her eyes.
"Troublesome people have no reason to exist." Getting rid of the Liu Xinya sisters would be a piece of cake.
She'll make them die without anyone knowing; she can handle this little problem perfectly.
"No." To her surprise, the demon god rejected her idea.
"Why?" Liu Lanyan asked, puzzled.
The demon god smiled, reached out and gently stroked Liu Lanyan's smooth long hair, explaining to her, "The Liu Xinya sisters can't possibly cause such a big stir. There are people behind them directing them."
Liu Lanyan wasn't stupid; she immediately understood the demon god's meaning: "You want to lure the snake out of its hole and eliminate it completely?"
“That’s right.” The Demon God nodded affirmatively. “The Liu Xinya sisters have already been exposed. Even if they want to do something, the people behind them can easily do it by using these two. In the end, they can just push all the problems onto the two of them.”
"The Liu Xinya sisters are just minor figures. We can find out the purpose of the person behind them from them." The Demon God said this, and Liu Lanyan listened quietly, but her mind was not idle and was working quickly.
"I understand," Liu Lanyan nodded.
Now that they knew the Liu Xinya sisters were pawns, the other side naturally understood that they knew as well.
The other party would try every means to hide their whereabouts and not let the demon god discover them, but the person hiding behind them was completely wrong.
The demon god didn't want to expose the person behind the scenes, but rather to see their true intentions.
As for the next target... once it's determined who's behind this, the Demon God will not hesitate to eliminate them completely, and won't care if it's a mistake.
Given the temperament of the Demon God, he would absolutely prioritize the safety of the demon realm, preferring to kill the innocent rather than let the guilty go free.
"But who exactly is the person in the forbidden area?" Liu Lanyan asked curiously. "They must be very powerful."
"Who knows? When I arrived in the Demon Realm, the forbidden area already existed." The Demon God was too interested in the woman in the forbidden area; his attention was not there.
"Hmm, I'm tired. I need to rest." Liu Lanyan yawned slightly and said to the Demon God.
"Alright, you should get some rest." The demon god didn't say anything more, got up, and returned to his own bedroom.
No sooner had the demon god left than Liu Lanyan rushed to the hot spring room next door. Without even taking off her clothes, she used her power, and with a bang, her entire dress turned to ashes.
The faint, still-dry bloodstains on her body were so shocking. Liu Lanyan was already used to this situation. After her power circulated quickly through her body, the bloodstains were quickly evaporated.
Then he slid into the hot spring and relaxed for a soak.
If the demon god had left a little later, he probably would have smelled the stench of blood.
Sure enough, using that much power was still too much for her.
Liu Lanyan closed her eyes helplessly. Her body simply couldn't handle her immense power, so she would have to be more careful in the future.
She wasn't afraid of being injured; she was only afraid that the demon god would find out what she looked like after she was injured.
The heartbreaking look in the demon god's eyes was deeply etched into her heart, and she could never forget it.
You should be more careful when using your power in the future, and make sure the demon god doesn't see through it.
Little did Liu Lanyan, who had planned everything perfectly, know that the Demon God, back in her bedroom, was sitting at the table, lost in thought. After a long while, he chuckled to himself, "I can control it. Lanyan, your so-called control far exceeds the limits of what ordinary people can bear. Do you really think I don't know that?"
"Lord." Peng Zhen, still worried, called out to the Lord upon hearing his return before going inside.
Just then, Peng Zhen saw the demon god spit out a mouthful of blood while supporting himself on the table. Startled, he rushed over in three steps: "Lord, what happened...?"
Wasn't it during the Hai hour (9-11 PM) when you didn't use your strength? How could you still be injured?
"It's nothing, it's just a matter of my mood." The demon god waved his hand, indicating that he was alright.
He was not injured from using force, but from emotional distress.
He had thought that after they met again, he could protect Lan Yan perfectly, but he never expected that it would end like this.
How could he not be heartbroken? Not be devastated?
Lanyan, are you disappointed in me?
My strength is still not great.
The demon god lowered his eyes slightly, concealing all his sorrow... an unspeakable sorrow...
Chapter 93 What Plan?
Peng Zhen stood quietly to the side, not daring to say anything more. Looking at the Demon God's slightly lowered eyes, he felt a deep and indescribable sorrow.
It seemed to be a sorrow that could not be expressed in words, a deep and lingering sorrow.
He didn't understand why the demon god gave him this feeling, making him feel so... powerless.
We are powerless to do anything about it.
What a ridiculous description.
Who would associate these four words with the demon god?
The Demon God is the guardian deity of the demon realm, an omnipotent and supreme being.
But at this moment, that's exactly how he felt.
It was strange, contradictory, yet it made him feel it was perfectly natural.
