Demon King's Wife

Chapter 156 You Are an Asshole
There was an extra wife of the city lord in the magic city, and it became popular in an instant. What made the commotion even more exciting was the degree of doting the lord of the magic city had on the wife of the city lord, which was said to have reached an unbelievable level.

Those women in the magic city who had the slightest fantasies about Yan Liheng but didn't have the courage to approach them were all disappointed and sad, and some even had a lot of dissatisfaction with Mu Ruoxin. To win the favor of the city lord?
The person who admired Yan Liheng the most was Pill Spirit Hall, a place that specializes in refining pills, curing diseases and saving people. The injury was painful, so many people came into contact with, and sometimes they could also come into contact with noble figures above, but they never had the opportunity to treat the city lord.

The city lord seldom gets sick, and even less injured. Even if there is a little sickness and pain, the third elder, who is in charge of the alchemy hall, will take care of it. The disciples will not approach the city lord unless the city lord personally orders to summon him.

Little people like them, the city lord will not summon them.

At this time, Aunt Qiao walked by with soup in her hand, her steps were a little hurried, and she was walking towards the Moying Building.

The female disciple of the Hall of Pills, who was gossiping in a pavilion on the road, saw Aunt Qiao, so she stepped forward to block her way, hoping to find out some news about the 'Madam of the City Lord' from her.

"Aunt Qiao, have you seen the lady of the city lord? Is she pretty? Is she tall or short, fat or thin?"

"Aunt Qiao, what's the temper of the city lord's wife? Is it gentle, kind, and virtuous?"

"Aunt Qiao, does the city lord really like the city lord's wife? Could it be just finding a random woman outside?"

"Aunt Qiao...Aunt Qiao, tell me quickly..."

Aunt Qiao was so dizzy by these female disciples that she had no choice but to shout, "Stop."

All the female disciples kept their mouths shut, but without any sign of fear, they looked at Aunt Qiao anxiously, waiting for her reply.

"You all say that you like the city lord on weekdays, but which one dares to approach the city lord? Not to mention approaching, you are trembling with fright even looking at it, why are you talking about liking? Since you dare not, then don't have too much The city lord's wife is a very powerful person, so don't mess with her if you don't want to live long." Aunt Qiao didn't want to tell too much right and wrong, lest the misfortune come out of her mouth, and she didn't like telling people's opinions behind her back, so it was simple. After saying a few words, he walked away quickly.

These female disciples all want to climb to the top, become the wife of the city lord, enjoy the supreme honor and power, but they have no courage to approach the city lord, it is ridiculous.

But they didn't have much chance to get close to the city lord.

Aunt Qiao left, but she left behind a sentence of 'the wife of the city lord is a very powerful person', which was misinterpreted by the female disciples into many meanings.

"Couldn't the lady of the city lord be a tigress?"

"It's not just a tigress, it's a hag. It's very likely that the city lord was threatened by her, so she was made the wife of the city lord of the demon city."

"Bah, bah, bah... who in this world can blackmail the city lord, don't talk nonsense."

"Since it's not a threat, why did the city lord marry her as the city lord's wife? I also heard that the city lord's wife loves money..."

At this moment in the magic city, Mu Ruoxin was being talked about everywhere, with all kinds of theories.

Mu Ruoxin is currently soaking in the hot spring in Moyinglou, so she doesn't know the rumors and rumors that have turned the world upside down for her.

"Wow... so comfortable! Unexpectedly, there are so many good places in the Demon City. It doesn't feel like a place on earth. No wonder Ah Heng wants to build the Moying Tower on the cliff. It turns out that there is a mystery hidden in the cliff!"

This hot spring is just behind the Moying Building, and the entrance is a door on the wall, but there is a trap, if Ah Heng did not open the door for her, she would not know the existence of this hot spring!
The hot spring is located on a concave cliff, surrounded by tall stone forests, occasionally small grass and flowers can be seen growing from the cracks in the stones, and a ray of clear spring flows out from a small mouth of the cliff, and the steaming heat dissipates in the stone forest , It seems to be the clouds and mists in the fairyland, dreamy and beautiful.

"This Ah Heng, how many treasures does he hide?"

"I must dig out one by one, hehe! From now on, what's his is mine, and what's mine is mine."

Mu Ruoxin soaked in the hot spring talking to herself, thinking she was the only one, and didn't notice someone standing behind her at all.

Yan Liheng was worried that something might happen to Mu Ruoxin alone in the hot spring, so he came in to take a look. He originally planned to take a look and go out, but he heard her talking to himself, so he couldn't help but replied, "What's mine is yours, but you... are mine."

Hearing Yan Liheng's voice, Mu Ruoxin turned her head in panic, then lowered her head to look at the large patch of spring on her chest, tearing it up and shouting, "Ah..."

After yelling, he retreated into the hot spring calmly, with only one head exposed, glaring viciously at the man in front of him who couldn't stop laughing, and cursed angrily, "Ah Heng, you're such a bastard! What's so hard to learn, why not learn from that Lin Lin?" It's shameless to peek at people taking a bath."

For Mu Ruoxin's yelling, Yan Liheng was not angry at all, and still kept laughing evilly, squatting down beside her, gently pinched her chin with his hand, lifted it up slightly, and kissed her lips lightly, Then he retorted confidently, "Of course I'm different from Lin Zhigao, at least I wasn't kicked out by you with a stool, right?"

"Okay! You took advantage of me again, when did you learn to be like a red-haired monster?" Mu Ruoxin was kissed, but she didn't blush, she pulled Yan Liheng's hand away, and drove him away, "Get out, get out I haven't officially become your wife yet, so I have to avoid suspicion, understand? Get out... get out quickly."

"I will make you my official wife soon."

"Then wait until I officially become your wife. You go out. If you don't go out, I will deal with you the same way I dealt with Lin Zhigao."

"Okay." Yan Liheng kissed Mu Ruoxin's lips again, and then got up to leave. When he reached the stone gate, he stopped suddenly, turned around and looked at the person soaking in the hot spring, and greeted him with incomparable tenderness. She told her whereabouts, "Ruoxin, rest in your room after taking a bath, and tell Aunt Qiao if you have anything to do."

"What about you?" Mu Ruoxin was a little unhappy, with a serious face and a pouting mouth.She didn't like being locked in a room the most, it was like going to jail.

"I have been away for five months, and I have to deal with some matters in the city myself. But don't worry, I will come back as soon as possible."

"Can't you take me with you?"

"Your foot is injured, take a good rest, and I will show you around the other places in the magic city tomorrow." Regarding this matter, Yan Liheng just refused to budge, he insisted on Mu Ruoxin resting, and he turned and left after explaining what he said. He wanted to finish the matter as soon as possible and come back to accompany her.

Mu Ruoxin was even more upset, slapped the surface of the hot spring in displeasure, and cursed angrily, "Why did you hurt your foot? That's not considered an injury at all, okay? I've been wiped off the medicine, why don't you let me go out?"

"Is this considered an injury?"

"If you don't let me go out, then I'll go by myself," Mu Ruoxin felt the urge to do whatever she wanted. She walked out of the hot spring, put on her clothes, and went out. Soup's Aunt Joe.

Seeing Mu Ruoxin, Aunt Qiao put on a more respectful attitude, and brought the soup, "Madam, this is the bird's nest soup that the city lord asked his subordinates to prepare for you."

"Thank you, Aunt Qiao, I'm just hungry!" Mu Ruoxin brought over the bird's nest soup, tasted it, it didn't feel hot, and then drank it all in one gulp, which looked extremely indecent.

Seeing such eating, Aunt Qiao was a little dumbfounded, she stared at him coldly, and even lost her mind.Oh my god, the wife of their city lord is too...

It's hard to say, and you shouldn't think too much about it, so as not to cause trouble.

After drinking the bird's nest, Mu Ruoxin handed the empty bowl to Aunt Qiao, wiped the residue from her mouth with her hand, and asked, "Aunt Qiao, do you know where Ah Heng has gone? He is your city lord."

Aunt Qiao came back to her senses and caught the empty bowl, still in surprise, so she stammered a bit, "Sub... this subordinate doesn't know. The subordinate's status is humble, and he is not qualified to know the whereabouts of the city lord."

"It doesn't matter, it's right that he is in the magic city anyway. If Ah Heng can't find me when he comes back, you can tell him that I went out for a stroll."

"Madam..." Aunt Qiao wanted to remind Mu Ruoxin that the city wanted her to have a good rest, but before she could say anything, she had already disappeared without a trace.

Hey... this city lord's wife is not a good lord to serve!

Mu Ruoxin is an active person, and she is in good spirits now!He trotted out of the room, flew directly to the arched balcony outside, and landed like a light bird.

Seeing Mu Ruoxin's skill, the four guards outside the Moying Building were all speechless.They thought this petite and thin wife of the city lord was a weak woman who didn't know martial arts, but they didn't expect to be so good at martial arts.

"Hi... Hello everyone." Mu Ruoxin greeted the surrounding guards after landing on both feet.

Only then did the guard come to his senses, and he knelt down on one knee to salute, "Kowtow to the mayor's wife."

"You don't need to do such a big salute, get up."

"Thank you, Mrs. City Mistress."

"Uh..." Forget it, it's not that easy to change these people all of a sudden.Mu Ruoxin stopped paying attention to those etiquettes, looked at the forked roads ahead, and didn't know where they lead, so she had to ask the guards, "Where do these roads go?"

"Returning to Madam, the one in the middle is going to the Yitan, the one on the left is going to the Wuhua Palace, and the one on the right is the Danling Temple. There is a fork in the road leading to the Danling Temple, which is going to the Yunxiao Temple."

"Yitan, Wuhua Hall, Lingdan Hall, Yunxiao Hall, where did your city lords go?"

"The city lord should be in the forum at this time, discussing important matters with the elders."

"Okay, thank you for your guidance." Mu Ruoxin thanked the guards, gave them a playful smile, and then walked towards the Wuhua Palace.Ah Heng is in the forum, so she can't go to the forum, otherwise Ah Heng will definitely tell her to go back and rest when he sees her.The woman named Zi Lian belonged to the Wuhua Palace, and Yanfeng also belonged to the Wuhua Palace. Although it has passed, some things still need to be resolved.

In this way, Mu Ruoxin walked towards the Wuhua Palace, and encountered a patrol team on the way, but she was not besieged by the patrol team as strangers, but there were not many people and houses along the way. The surrounding area is surrounded by vertical high cliffs. Although there are beautiful flower and grass pavilions along the road, there are no people.

Strange, where did everyone go?

Just when Mu Ruoxin was wondering, he happened to see a middle-aged man rushing towards him, as if he was going somewhere.

Mu Ruoxin stopped the man and asked him, "You are in such a hurry, what happened?"

The man stopped in his tracks, looked at Mu Ruoxin, felt that she looked strange, and asked defensively, "Who are you? You don't look familiar, so you shouldn't be from the magic city."

"I am new here."

"Newcomer, is there any newcomer in the magic city recently?"

"Yes!" Mu Ruoxin replied perfunctorily, regardless of whether the man believed it or not, he asked again, "You haven't answered my question just now! What happened?"

The man was dubious, and after thinking about it, he felt that Mu Ruoxin was a newcomer, otherwise he would not be able to walk around in the magic city at will, and he would have been arrested by the patrol team long ago, so he put down his guard and answered her, "The punishment hall is dealing with people who made mistakes. , not far ahead."

"Those who made mistakes, what mistakes did they make, and what kind of punishment should they receive?"

"It's an ordinary female disciple of Pill Spirit Hall who stole pills for her love, but was caught. According to the rules of the Demon City, stealing is a serious crime and she must be burned at the stake."

"It's just stealing the elixir, and you will be burned to death. This punishment is too heavy."

Hearing what Mu Ruoxin said, the man immediately signaled her to shut up, and reminded her in a low voice, "Hush... girl, you are new here and don't know the rules of the magic city, so don't talk nonsense, so as not to attract trouble." Disaster. In the magic city, stealing and cheating are not allowed. Anyone who dares to do this kind of thing will be severely punished. I won’t tell you anymore. I have to go to the execution hall and send that poor child."

After the man finished speaking, he ran forward quickly, unwilling to say more to Mu Ruoxin.

"Rooting and stealing, swindling and abducting... serious crimes." Mu Ruoxin was still pondering over what the man said, and when he saw the man running away, he quickly chased after him, wanting to see what happened.

Are the rules of this magic city too impersonal?
In a wide area with a wooden platform, hundreds of people gathered, all looking at the woman who was tied to the wooden frame on the platform.The woman's temple hair was messy, her face was ashen, her lips were white, and she was dressed in a torn white dress. She looked at the people watching her with tears in her eyes, as if she was looking for someone.

Suddenly, a woman in a lavender dress rushed to the front, persuading the tied woman, "Yundan, hurry up and tell me who the person who tricked you into stealing the elixir is, so that you don't have to be burned at the stake. That person stole the elixir, that person has not even shown his face until now, this kind of person is not worth your life for him."

"Zi Lan, I did everything willingly, no one lied to me." Yun Dan still refused to name the person who tricked her into stealing the elixir, and still had illusions about this person.

She was about to be burned to death, and she just wanted to see him one more time before she died, but why didn't he come?She never thought of betraying him!

Zilan was anxious and angry when she heard it, and she scolded: "Yundan, you are so stupid, that kind of person obviously just wants to trick you into helping him steal the elixir, he doesn't like you at all."

"Maybe."

"What maybe? Yundan, if you don't tell who that person is, you will be burned alive. The city is not peaceful recently, and the city owner has been missing for five months. Once someone violates the city rules, no one will I will plead for you."

"Zi Lan, thank you! It is enough to have good sisters like you in this life." Yun Dan still chose to die to protect the one she loves in her heart, and then looked at the crowd watching her, looking for the familiar figure among them, only Unfortunately, still can not find.

Is he really not coming?

Zilan——Mu Ruoxin was among the crowd at this time, and when she heard the name 'Zilan', she remembered what Black Eagle described her as a kind-hearted person who was indifferent to the world.

This Zilan is good-looking, and she can be seen from a few simple words, so she must be a good girl.

Since he is someone Black Hawk likes, of course he wants to get to know him.

At this time, two disciples of the torture hall came with torches, ready to light the fire.

Zilan was even more anxious, and took the last chance to persuade Yundan, "Yundan, there is no time, you should wake up quickly. You have been deceived, do you still want to lose your life for that liar?"

Yundan does not respond to Zilan's persuasion, but closes his eyes and waits for the fire to burn.Even if she was really cheated, she would admit it, the mistake has been made, and someone must be punished.

"Yundan, Yundan..." Zilan couldn't persuade Yundan, so she had to go to the two disciples in the punishment hall, "Senior brothers, please give me a little more time, I will definitely persuade her."

"Miss Zilan, the execution was delayed half an hour just because of your face. Now that half an hour has passed, we really can't give you any more time." Throw the torch onto the firewood.

At first the fire was not big enough to burn anyone.Zilan used this last bit of time to persuade Yundan, and even begged her, "Yundan, wake up, there is no time, just treat it as me begging you, okay?"

In the face of death, Yundan was not afraid, looked at Zilan with a smile, and thanked her, "Zilan, thank you! If there is another life, I hope we can be a pair of sisters."

"Yundan..."

The fire gradually grew stronger, and all the firewood below had been burned and was spreading upwards.A small flame burned to Yundan's skirt, and the fire quickly burned on her body.

"Yundan..." Zilan wanted to rush up to save her, but the disciples of the punishment hall refused to let her go and held her back.

The onlookers below couldn't bear to look, and lowered their heads.

But suddenly, a petite figure flew over from above, attracting everyone's attention.

Mu Ruoxin flew up, threw the green vine in mid-air, scattered the burning firewood, and then extinguished the fire on Yundan's body, temporarily saving her life, but did not untie the rope and pull her away from the fire. rescued from the wooden frame.

The disciples of the punishment hall nearby saw someone destroying the punishment, and immediately surrounded them and questioned the person who put out the fire.

"Who are you? Do you know the consequences of daring to prevent the execution hall from executing the punishment?"

"I didn't want to stop your punishment. I just wanted to ask her a few questions. After I'm done...let's talk about it." Mu Ruoxin gave a perfunctory answer to the disciples of the punishment hall, ignored them, and turned to face the burned one. Yun Dan asked her seriously, "Miss Yun Dan, can you answer a few questions for me?"

"You are..." Yun Dan didn't know Mu Ruoxin, and was surprised by her rescue.A stranger would come forward to save her, but the person in her heart refused to meet even once. Could it be that she really loved the wrong person?
"Don't worry about who I am, just answer my question. You stole the pill for the sake of your loved one. It's commendable, but your behavior is shameful. Let me ask you, why does your loved one need the pill?" Medicine? Is he seriously ill or seriously injured?"

"neither."

"what is that?"

"He just wanted to make himself stronger and then protect me. Not long ago, the Pill Spirit Hall refined a few miraculous medicines that can enhance power, so..."

"So you stole the elixir to strengthen his skills, and the reason why he strengthened his skills is to protect you. How can you believe this ridiculous and low-level lie? If he really wants to protect you, then I won't let you steal the medicine. As a person from the Demon City, you should know how serious the crime of stealing is, but he doesn't care about the consequences of the theft and insists on you stealing the medicine. Let me ask you, does he often ask you about the Pill Spirit Hall?"

"You... how do you know? Who are you?" Yun Dan became nervous and scared, not because he was afraid of death, but because he was afraid of facing reality.She gave her life to love someone, but in the end it was just a deception, how could she accept it?

"As long as you don't die, you will know who I am in the future." Mu Ruoxin still did not reveal her identity, and asked more seriously: "Yun Dan, let me ask you, do you want to die?"

"I……"

"Answer me truthfully, do you want to die? If you want to die, I will let the people in the torture hall continue to light the fire; if you don't want to die, I will give you a chance to fight for life."

Hearing Mu Ruoxin's brazen words, the disciples of the punishment hall couldn't take it anymore, and angrily reprimanded her, "Little girl, where did you come from, and how dare you speak outrageous words? The rules of the Demon City are set by the city lord." No one can break the rules. Yundan committed the crime of theft, and he will be burned at the stake today anyway. If you do something wrong again, you will be burned to death. Come, someone, take her away."

"What's breaking the rules, there's no human touch at all. Those who deserve to die won't die, and those who don't deserve to die will die instead. I insist on finding out that bastard who cheated on the girl's feelings. Don't get in my way... Get out of the way." Mu Ruoxin Pushing away the torture hall disciple who was going to detain her, she was very angry at this moment, and she had to teach that emotional liar a lesson.Anyway, this is Ah Heng's territory, so it shouldn't be a big deal for her to make such a trivial matter, right?

Ah Heng, don't blame me for taking advantage of your power to bully others, it's really because some people really owe a lesson.

Because of their responsibilities, the disciples of the punishment hall had no choice but to attack Mu Ruoxin and take her down, "Girl, since you ignore the city regulations so much, then don't blame us for being rude."

The disciples acted immediately after speaking, without giving Mu Ruoxin a chance to refute.

Mu Ruoxin had no choice but to fight back to protect herself, and started a fight with the disciples of Xingtang, but she didn't dare to strike too hard, after all, they were Ah Heng's subordinates.

There are many disciples in the punishment hall, there are at least twenty of them, Mu Ruoxin has only one, and no one around dares to step forward to help.

How dare they help!After this incident becomes serious, the superiors will definitely send people down, and when the Four Great Protectors appear, no matter how high the martial arts are, they will be taken down.

Zilan couldn't help it many times and wanted to step forward to help, but she still didn't dare.

Just at this time, Hei Ying came to look for Zi Lan, who knew that after entering the crowd, he found that Mu Ruoxin was fighting with the people in the punishment hall, and hurriedly stopped him, "Stop it."

These people want to die, but dare to do something to the mayor's wife?If the Lord knew about this, the sky would probably collapse.
