At this moment, Qiao Ci, having just finished washing her hands under Chong Han's service, was about to enjoy the delicacies when she heard Chang Yan's voice, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.
"You eat first, I'll go see." Chang Yan's complexion was also grim. Had his demon realm become a place with no guards? Anyone could just enter as they pleased?
"I'll go with you." Qiao Ci wouldn't let Chang Yan bully her little cub.
Chong Han looked at her with some hesitation. "Your cultivation is completely gone now. If a fight breaks out later, what if I can't look after you? Be good, stay here. After you finish your meal, I'll come back."
"Hmm? Are you questioning me?" Qiao Ci's demeanor now gave Chong Han the impression of someone flustered and angered.
There was no other option, so he had to bring Qiao Ci along.
When Chang Yan saw Chong Han arrive with Qiao Ci, he had an expression of "as expected," his hands behind his back, and said disdainfully, "Qiao Ci, you are indeed colluding with the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm!"
As a result, neither Qiao Ci nor the Demon Lord paid him any mind.
The Demon Lord Chong Han took out a defensive magical artifact, creating a sturdy barrier around Qiao Ci. Then, he produced a small table laden with exquisite delicacies.
Heard this supreme being of the Demon Realm speak in a gentle voice to Qiao Ci, "You just sit here and watch the show, but watching the show is watching the show, you still have to eat. After all, I made it myself."
Saying this, he even reached out and quickly patted Qiao Ci's head, as if afraid she would react, and swiftly turned to walk out of the defensive range.
The sounds from inside could be heard from the outside, and even Feng Fuling, who was pretending to be unconscious, couldn't help but open her eyes.
The Demon Lord personally cooked for Qiao Ci?
Looking at the dishes, they were in the style of the immortal cultivation world?
She couldn't help but recall the Demon Lord who captured her earlier, domineering and arrogant. How could he cook for a woman? After all, even she hadn't received such treatment.
Could it be that the stinky beggar who had possessed her body was really Chi Ming, and the one here now was the true Demon Lord?
Seeing Qiao Ci pick up her chopsticks with no psychological burden and start eating, Feng Fuling gnashed her teeth in hatred.
The stinky beggar had said it was Qiao Ci who had driven him out of the Demon Lord's body. Otherwise, her beloved Chi Ming would still be the Demon Lord, and she wouldn't be in such a sorry state now.
"Do you really think my Demon Realm is devoid of people, and your immortal cultivation world can come and go as you please?" Chong Han, his mood to accompany Qiao Ci for a meal disturbed, his face dark, looked at Chang Yan, contemplating which part of him would be suitable to keep.
"Your Demon Realm imprisoned my second senior brother first, and my second senior brother's life and death are currently unknown. Now you are forcing my Heng Jian Sect's female disciples to marry your Demon Realm's dirtiest demons. If anyone needs to be questioned, shouldn't it be me questioning you?" Chang Yan had already thought of his retort. He was from a righteous sect, and this time he wouldn't leave any handle for the demons to mock.
"Whether your second senior brother is in the Demon Realm or not, this Seat is unaware. However, this female disciple of yours eagerly came to the Demon Realm seeking a man," Chong Han didn't mind chatting for a while, allowing Qiao Ci to have a good meal.
After all, if a fight broke out later, she might worry about him and lose her appetite.
"What do you mean?" Chang Yan looked at the still "unconscious" Feng Fuling. At this point, he could only choose to believe Feng Fuling.
Therefore, he continued, "Fuling must have been tricked into the Demon Realm by the sinister and cunning demons. How could she have come willingly? Stop quibbling! If you hand over Qiao Ci, I will not pursue the matter of my second senior brother. In the future, my immortal cultivation world will not step into your Demon Realm again. What do you say?"
"You want me to hand over Qiao Ci? Didn't you see how this Seat personally cooked for her, doted on her, and cherished her like a treasure?" Chong Han said, glancing back at Qiao Ci, "Furthermore, she has no relation to your Heng Jian Sect anymore. As for the matter of your second senior brother you mentioned, that is your own business, unrelated to this Seat.
Heh heh, you say that my demon race tricked Feng Fuling, which is even more preposterous. After all, Feng Fuling's every move upon arriving in the Demon Realm was recorded. Do you want to see it?"
Ever since he witnessed Qiao Ci's astonishing actions, Chong Han had kept an eye on Feng Fuling this time and had recorded her every word and deed.
He was waiting for the day he could use it to avenge Qiao Ci by slapping Chang Yan's face, but he didn't expect it to be used so soon.
Chang Yan naturally didn't believe that Feng Fuling would eagerly come to the Demon Realm seeking a man, as she only loved himself. So, he coldly replied, "Firstly, respectable women in our immortal cultivation world do not eagerly come to the Demon Realm seeking men. Secondly, pairing Fuling with an ugly and old demon is a blatant declaration of war against our immortal cultivation world! Have you truly thought this through?"
"Whether to fight or not is not urgent. Why not first see what this respectable woman of yours came to the Demon Realm for? After watching, you will understand why this Seat bestowed her upon that old beggar, as it was her own request." Chang Yan said, already opening the recorded crystal ball, presenting Feng Fuling's every action in the Demon Realm to everyone.
Feng Fuling naturally knew what she had done. As she was about to stop him, the person holding her immediately sealed her acupoints, rendering her unable to speak or move.
Even Elder Li, who dressed her, dared to slap a female disciple. What kind of good person could she be?
If it was truly as the Demon Lord said, and Chang Yan could see Feng Fuling's true colors from this, then it wouldn't be too late.
Otherwise, the still unrighteous and emotionally driven Honored Master Chang Yan might very well be abandoned by the Heng Jian Sect...
The scenes that appeared in the memory crystal ball could not be faked. Seeing Feng Fuling repeatedly claiming she wanted to be the Demon Concubine Chi Ming, and then being bestowed by the Demon Lord upon the old beggar named Chi Ming...
Chang Yan was unwilling to believe it, but the facts forced him to. He turned to look at Feng Fuling, who stood there rigidly, clearly under someone's control.
After her acupoints were unsealed, Feng Fuling glared hatefully at Chong Han, "You are despicable and shameless! As the Sovereign of the Demon Realm, you actually learned Qiao Ci's underhanded tactics. I will never set foot in this damned Demon Realm again!"
Saying this, she pitifully said to Chang Yan, "Master, I was wrong. At that time, I saw you with Elder Li, and I fainted from anger. Can we go back? I promise I'll never cause trouble again..."
"Heh heh, your immortal cultivation world truly loves wearing green hats. It's fine if you leave, but this Feng Fuling is already Chi Ming's woman, she is half of my demon race, she cannot be taken away~" Chong Han said gloatingly.
Chang Yan clenched his fists, veins bulging. He vented his anger onto Qiao Ci and Chong Han, "Today, I must take Feng Fuling with me, and I must also take Qiao Ci, this betrayer of the immortal cultivation world!"
"Then, go ahead and try. Which one of them are you capable of taking away?" Chong Han, seeing that Qiao Ci had almost finished eating, spoke and then instantly teleported to Chang Yan's side, engaging him in a fierce battle with sharp moves.
He had long been displeased with Chang Yan, protecting a pretentious and affected woman, questioning him and Qiao Ci time and again. Did he really think the demon race was a pushover!
