In fact, he wanted to tell her more about the execution of two women, but seeing how terrified she was, those words could not be spoken out of the demon ruler's mouth.
Although he was fierce and brutal, it was only towards others; towards her, he remained tender.
Subsequently, Yuyao saw another person lying horizontally in the second cell, with their hair covering their face, making it difficult to determine if they were male or female.
She took a deep breath and carefully looked at it, finding many blood holes on its body, with many small snakes crawling inside...
But this person was still alive, emitting a soundless wail from their throat.
"These are all disobedient people..."
The murmur of the demon king echoed in her ears.
Yu Yao felt a surge of nausea in her stomach and suddenly vomited, spewing onto the shoes of the demon king.
She trembled in fear, thinking that this man would strangle her.
The demon ruler glanced at the filth on his feet, not blaming her but feeling very concerned, though he did not show it.
He casually flicked away with his sleeve, and the filth vanished, leaving the shoe clean again.
Seeing her frightened look at him, the demon ruler felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
He didn't want to use these means, but she forced him to use...
He was forced to show her his cruel and terrifying side.
"I don't want to see it anymore, can we go back?"
She lowered her head, spoke weakly, and asked cautiously.
They dared not look at the demon ruler's eyes, their teeth trembling.
"Alright."
The demon king's expression was complex; he did not force her to continue looking. Seeing that she was truly frightened, he stopped at that point.
Hearing his agreement, Yuyao ran out of the long corridor as if she were flying, forgetting to bow and collided with the door frame, sitting down hard.
Her stomach ached, and she hurriedly took a pill to preserve the fetus. The feeling of pain disappeared.
She wanted to get up, but her belly was too large and her body was very heavy. Add to that the weakness in her legs, and she couldn't seem to stand up at all...
The demon ruler looked at her and saw the complex expressions in his eyes.
He sighed deeply and bent down to pick her up from the ground, cradling her gently in his arms. He spoke softly, "If you're scared, just be obedient. Just stay in the demon realm quietly and love me well. I will treat you very well. Even if you want the moon in the sky, I can get it for you..."
"I understand..."
She had her eyes closed and leaned against him, her expression dazed, and whispered quietly.
"That's better now."
The demon king kissed her brow and eyes with a protective tenderness, then tightened his hold on her, carrying her back to the nineinfernal palace like this.
The ninth heaven, the Azure Skies Palace.
This day, the gathering of immortal beings was a scene of intense anxiety. Some paced back and forth, while others huddled together whispering furtively.
The Emperor of the Heavens sat on the nine-dragon throne, wearing a golden dragon robe, surrounded by auspicious radiance, exuding an aura of majesty without needing to be angry. His eyes were cold and profound.
"Your Majesty, the demon realm has repeatedly incited wars and shows no respect for the heavenly realm. It is truly despicable. Please quickly dispatch troops and give them a severe lesson."
An elderly minister stepped forward, his beard white as snow, his expression extremely angry.
The Emperor's fingers, well-defined and knuckle-white, tapped on the armrest of the dragon throne one by one, without speaking. His face was expressionless, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
"What's happening in the demon realm? Not long ago, the two realms just fought a war. How long has it been since then? They've attacked again, are they bored?"
A war god in full armor stood in the center of the hall, his expression extremely angry.
The gods and immortals in the hall were all filled with righteous indignation, their expressions angry, and they all requested the Emperor to quickly dispatch troops.
The Emperor paused with his fingertips, his cold, piercing eyes fixed on the crowd of immortals below, and said, "Why hasn't Mojin come yet?"
Mojin is among the highest-ranking immortals, not only the strongest in terms of power but also intelligent and stable. Moreover, he has a close friendship with the Emperor.
"Yes, there's been such a big incident, where is the War God?"
"I think I saw the War God taking a woman with a big belly to Zhaoyao Mountain, and he was protecting her carefully..."
"What big belly woman? Ji Lin Immortal, make your words clear to this immortal..."
The Immortal of a Thousand Flowers turned to Ji Lin Immortal instantly, her eyebrows raised in alertness, and she asked urgently.
The Emperor's gaze also fell on Ji Lin Immortal, and he raised his eyebrows, indicating that he wanted to know what was going on. His eyes showed a hint of curiosity.
Just then, someone rushed in from outside the hall.
He wore a white robe, had an unspoken aloofness on his face, eyes deep as the universe's stars, a high nose bridge, and thin lips pressed into a straight line. There was a faint aura of divinity around him.
His demeanor was like the snow and ice of the high mountains, clear and noble.
Yet, there was an aura of stability and calmness about him. As soon as he appeared, he drew the attention of all the gods and immortals in the hall, who all turned to look at him.
The Immortal of a Thousand Flowers, upon seeing Mojin, had a spark of light in her beautiful eyes, all filled with fascination.
The Emperor saw Mojin come and said, "What is your opinion, War God, about the demon realm's recent incitement of war?"
Mojin remained calm and composed, slightly nodding his head, and said, "Since they have attacked us, we should dispatch troops to retake the land."
"The demon ruler is extremely powerful, and it is likely that he will lead the army himself. If we encounter him, do you think the War God can be sure of victory?"
The Emperor gently tapped on the armrest twice, indicating another question.
Mojin lowered his gaze, took a moment to speak, and then said, "I will do my utmost to kill him. Even if it costs me my life."
His voice was extremely cold, causing all the immortals in the great hall to involuntarily shiver. It was chilling to the bone, as if the temperature had dropped significantly.
The Emperor was taken aback, and so were the other immortals in the hall.
General Mojin, despite his aloof and cold demeanor, treated everyone with indifference and never cared about anyone.
This is the first time I've seen him so determined to kill someone.
The Emperor fixed his gaze on Mojin, watching as he had a cold expression, with his eyes slightly lowered, emitting a strong sense of coldness and murderous intent.
His heart knew that there must be some personal grudge between Mojin and the demon ruler.
He suddenly laughed lightly, "Then, I will appoint the War God as the commander-in-chief of this expedition against the demon army. All the heavenly troops and immortals will be under your command. Once all are ready, we will set out immediately."
Mojin slightly bowed his body and said, "Your majesty, I am willing to serve."
The courtiers began to leave one by one.
As Mojin was about to step out of the Azure Skies Palace to head to the heavenly camp for military preparations, he saw that the Holy Mother of the Azure Skies was coming towards him in a hurry.
Seeing the Holy Mother of the Azure Skies, his expression slightly furrowed.
Shouldn't she be in Zhaoyao Mountain? How did she appear in the ninth heaven at this time?
Could it be...
Mojin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and walked forward quickly.
Before the Holy Mother of the Azure Skies could speak, Mojin hurriedly asked, "Holy Mother, you suddenly come to the ninth heaven. Is there trouble with Meiji?"
The Holy Mother of the Azure Skies stopped before Mojin, her breath was a bit disordered, and after calming her breath, she nodded slightly.
The Holy Mother of the Azure Skies looked at Mojin with a guilty expression, "I'm truly sorry. I entrusted her to you, but I failed to protect her. She has been taken by the demon ruler..."
"What do you mean?"
Mojin's face changed instantly, his expression was extremely shocked.
The forbidden zone at Zhaoyao Mountain is heavily guarded, and the Holy Mother of the Azure Skies has limitless magic powers. How could a person be easily taken by the demon ruler?
He had no intention to inquire about the reason.
Meiji is pregnant with twins, and the demon ruler is determined to eliminate the child in her womb.
Mojin dare not imagine how Meiji would fare if she fell into the demon ruler's hands.
Their children are in danger…
He dared not continue thinking, feeling as if the world was spinning and about to collapse...
The Holy Mother of the Azure Skies was shocked by his appearance, but she understood his emotions and wanted to say that she would accompany him to save Meiji.
She found that Mojin had already disappeared.
"I apologize to Your Majesty, but I have urgent business to attend to. The matter of expelling the demon army, I ask Your Majesty to entrust it to someone else..."
The air was filled with Mojin's voice, floating into her ears and also into the Azure Skies Palace.
Inside the Azure Skies Palace.
The Emperor was taken aback for a moment, and then, upon realizing what had happened, he burst into anger and forcefully threw the scroll he was holding to the ground.
"You damn Mojin, you promised so well just now, but now you've run away from the emperor..."
He wanted to call Mojin back, but found that he had run away without a trace. Mojin was already gone from the ninth heaven, and the emperor was once again furious with his face turning a deep shade of green.
The Emperor cursed a few times in anger and, with no choice, had to entrust the matter to someone else.
