The Cultivator's partner went off track all the way

Chapter 922: Have you read too many mortal stories?
After listening to Jinhua's story about what happened in the demon world, Tang Yue fell into deep thought.

Putting aside the fact that the demon world has undergone a major change, why is the Flame Demon King playing the game of three palaces and six courtyards?
Could it be that he has read too many storybooks from the mortal world?

Looking down at the jade bracelet on her wrist, she still couldn't break through the realm, and had no confidence of winning if she faced the Flame Demon King head-on.

We still have to find a chance to escape.

No one knew where Ciji had gone. All the demon palaces he had set his eyes on had been robbed, and he would not return.

"What is the Flame Demon King busy with recently?" she asked Ye Qingxi.

“He is arranging for the newly surrendered nobles to live in Tongtian Mountain Range, and is also dealing with some people he doesn’t like.

For example, the former devil phase... and the Grand Duke who has returned to his original form."

Speaking of the Grand Duke, Jinhua's expression became a little subtle.

Tang Yue noticed it, "Do you want to save the Grand Duke?"

Jinhua shook his head, "I don't want to think about it anymore, it's just that the Demon Emperor's methods are too cruel.

He actually cut off their flesh piece by piece, then healed it with a magic array, and repeated the process.

And used potions to increase their pain perception."

Tang Yue took a breath and asked, "Is it necessary?"

"The Demon Emperor is a vengeful person, and he has thousands of ways to torture his subordinates who betray him.

Sister, you are trapped in the demon world, what are your plans now? I will definitely help you."

"I haven't thought about it yet. You've been by my side all these days. Why are you helping me like this?"

Tang Yue felt that Jinhua was too nice to her.

Jinhua held her hand and said, "Sister, I don't know why, but there is always a voice in my heart asking me to help you and assist you. When I see you, I can't help but surrender."

She looked at the demon guards standing outside the door. "The same goes for those guards. They didn't have to be so loyal to their duties, but they protected you voluntarily, and some even sacrificed their lives."

Tang Yue guessed that this was the effect of inheriting the demon world, and the demons involuntarily submitted to her.

"Did the Flame Demon King and Ye Qingxi embarrass you?"

“I am also known as the girl of destiny and have inherited the body of a phoenix. I have a high status and they dare not do anything to me.

According to the rules, I should become the high priest of the demon tribe."

There were some things that Jinhua didn't say because she didn't want to add to Tang Yue's troubles.

Taking over the position of high priestess would bring her more power and would allow her to better protect the two of them.

But she instinctively knew that she could not accept the Demon Emperor's enthronement, otherwise something terrible would happen.

The guard's voice came from outside the door, "Empress Yue, His Majesty has sent a personal guard to summon you to Huaguang Pavilion."

Tang Yue's heart skipped a beat. "Don't yell. Please be respectful and call me Monk Tang. Thank you."

"This..." The demon guard originally felt that this was disrespectful. After all, she was the queen personally appointed by His Majesty.

But he felt an irresistible force, "Lord Tang, when can you go to see His Majesty? I will tell the demon guards outside the palace."

Calling him a monk is too disrespectful.

"What will he do if I don't go?" What if there are any traps if I go?
"This...will His Majesty blame you?"

"Let him blame it."

"Yes, sir." The demon guard had no choice but to reply to the guards sent by His Majesty.

The guards outside the palace gate were incredulous when they received this reply, "Did Lady Yue really say that?"

Ever since His Majesty unified the Demon Realm and took control of the Tongtian Mountains, all the major families have sent their daughters to the palace to please His Majesty.

Even Queen Phoenix, who was not so enthusiastic about His Majesty, did not dare to disobey the emperor.

Now Lady Yue is refusing to obey the summons.

"Yes, please go back." The demon guards of Yuehui Palace looked respectful, but they blocked the palace door tightly and did not let the guards go in.

The guard said, "Don't let Concubine Yue upset His Majesty. Let me go in and bring her out."

More than a dozen demon guards immediately rushed to the entrance of Yuehui Palace and blocked the door, saying, "No one is allowed to enter without the Queen's summons."

The guards looked incredulous, "You guys don't obey your majesty's orders?"

"Please go back." The leading demon guard had a grim look on his face.

"Okay, okay, don't regret it." The guard waved his sleeves and left.

He came alone and could not defeat so many demon guards.

After the guards left, the other demon guards looked worried and asked the leading demon guard, "Will it be bad for us to offend His Majesty's people like this?" The cold-faced demon guard said, "I'm sure you all have felt something in your hearts these days. We should submit to this lord in the palace."

The other demons nodded, "We are also surprised. You are a human."

"I don't understand what happened to the Lord that made us so loyal to him, but this is the only way we can go."

The other demon guards nodded. They had offended Queen Ye badly over the past few days and there was no turning back.

In the hall, Jinhua watched Tang Yue reject the Demon Emperor and did not stop her.

But she was a little worried, "The power of the Demon Emperor is unfathomable now. If my sister disobeys him, it will not be good."

Tang Yue smiled faintly, "He may not be able to do anything to us. Let's go out and see what the Demon Emperor Palace has become."

As the lord of the demon world, you always have to look at your land and what power you have.

You can't inherit the demon world and be forced to be someone's concubine, what's the point of being an heir then?

"This place seems to have gotten bigger. What is the palace in the center? Why is it higher than other places?"

Standing on the palace road, the palaces on both sides are blocked by palace walls, but the palace in the center is relatively high and can be seen at a glance.

In addition, the Tower of Babel has also disappeared, possibly turning into the Babel Mountains.

“That’s the central hall, it’s taller for some reason, and there are many more buildings.

For some reason, the Demon Emperor didn't move in, but Ye Qingxi did."

"Could it be that he has no way to live there?" Tang Yue said casually and continued to walk around.

Jinhua suddenly realized, "Then I know why he made Ye Qingxi the queen. She is in the central hall and can let the Demon Emperor in."

After passing through several palace gates, we arrived at the Imperial Garden, which was full of flowers blooming in all seasons.

Many gravel roads and corridors have been built to facilitate entry and visiting.

After walking around for a while, Tang Yue realized that the Lord of the Demon World really had great power.

She can sense what is happening in every corner, and can punish or grant favors to the demons, including the Flame Demon King.

But there was still a little bit of the root of the Tree of Destiny left in his body, and his strength was too strong, so it would take a lot of effort to bring down divine punishment on him.

The Demon Emperor's Palace is easier to control. If she wants, she can turn the entire palace into her magical weapon.

But she still didn't want to reveal her identity as the Lord of the Demon World. She still had to go back to the spirit world, and her current strength was not strong enough, which could easily attract the covetousness of those who were interested.

However, with these powers, it should not be difficult to deal with the Flame Demon Emperor in secret.

Tang Yue felt relieved, so she went shopping with Jinhua and even explained flowers to her.

Seeing that she was not in a hurry, Jinhua knew that she had found a solution, so he also felt like visiting the garden and admiring the flowers.

"Hey, isn't this the Empress of the Eastern Palace? Who is this next to you?"

Several women approached, bowed slightly, and turned to look at Tang Yue.

After seeing her face clearly, he froze in place.

After a while, he said, "How is it possible that there is such a beautiful woman in the world? Is she a monster?"

Tang Yue rolled her eyes at her. What a bunch of demons! How dare you call her a monster?

A woman with a peacock feather in her hair stood up and said, "There is no woman like this in my demon tribe. I'm afraid this is a disaster from heaven..."

Jinhua stepped forward and blocked Tang Yue's way. "What are you talking about, you monsters? Get out of here now and don't ruin our mood. I'll beat you up if you're careful."

She raised her hand, gathered energy in her palm, and was about to bring it down.

Several women were terrified and said as they ran away: "How dare you take action in the palace? This is against the palace rules. We are going to tell Queen Xigong."

A slight look of fear appeared on Jinhua's face.

"What happened? Ye Qingxi has become a bully in the palace?"

Tang Yue just thought this scene was absurd and funny, so she didn't say anything.

But now Jinhua looked unhappy, obviously because of something Ye Qingxi had done.

Jinhua forced a smile, "Nothing, sister."

"Even though she has reached the realm of Shattered Void Great Demon, she is still trapped in the blood pool and cannot get out. She can only think of ways to capture those she dislikes."

Tang Yue was about to say something when she was interrupted by a man's voice that suddenly appeared.

"Princess Yue, I just summoned you to see me, why don't you come to see me?"

Tang Yue looked at the Flame Demon King in a black robe, the corner of her mouth twitched, and she really wanted to hit him.
