Chapter 52 Inner Struggles(1/3)
I was sitting in the master's seat in the center of the main hall, at a loss as to what I should do. I gave away the gold and silver mainly because I was afraid that they would cause trouble and keep dragging me to play with this and that. My elder brother's words still echoed in my mind.
I heard in my ears, 'Women are always the last victims'. I grabbed my hair with both hands and put the tips of my elbows on my thighs. The feeling of guilt made me extremely uncomfortable.
After an unknown amount of time, a soft voice sounded, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah!" I looked up and saw that it was Bai Jian. I forced a smile and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to call me by my name? How is my mother?"
Bai Jian's face turned slightly red, and he lowered his head and said, "Lei Xiang, mother, there is nothing wrong with her. She has already fallen asleep."
"Oh, that's good, Jian'er. If you have time in the future, I'd like you to help me stay with her more. My mother was hit too hard before, and I don't want her to get hurt again."
Bai Jian nodded and said, "I will. I'll give this back to you. It's too valuable. I really can't keep it." She held up the amethyst I gave her in her hand.
I frowned and said, "What are you doing? Since mother accepts you as her goddaughter, then we are a family. It's just a stone. It's not precious, so just accept it. Besides, you don't want to learn magic."
? It will be of great help to you."
Bai Jian said: "I, I." Her face suddenly turned red. She was just accepting a gift. As for whether the reaction was so big, I gave her an encouraging look, "Just accept it."
Bai Jian seemed to have made some important decision suddenly. A firm look flashed in his eyes. He took the amethyst into his arms and said, "Thank you, Lei Xiang." She called my name again and it was no longer the same as before.
So jerky.
"Why are you so polite? You are my sister."
"Were you unhappy about something just now? I saw that you looked in pain."
I sighed and said, "Yeah, I'm so ashamed to say it."
"Then tell me. It will make you feel a lot better. Besides, I can also help you with some advice. We, the White Fox Clan, are all very smart."
I looked at him, pointed to the chair next to me and said, "Sit down, I'm tired of standing all the time."
Bai Jian thanked me and sat on the chair next to me. He didn't rush me, he just looked at me quietly.
I opened my mouth to speak several times, but nothing came out. How could I say something like this?
"Is it difficult?" Bai Jian asked.
I nodded and said bitterly: "It's very difficult. It's probably like this. There is a girl who has nothing to do with me. I hurt her. What do you think I should do?"
Bai Jian smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this? It's inevitable that there will be harm when men and women get along. Can't you just explain it clearly? Do you like her?"
I smiled bitterly and said: "The key is that I can't explain this at all. I don't know whether I like her or not. I already have someone I like. I feel that the relationship with the girl I hurt is very uncomfortable. It makes me uncomfortable."
I always feel sorry for the person I like. Please tell me what should I do."
Bai Jian's face suddenly turned pale, "Does the girl you hurt like you?"
I shook my head in shock and said, "I don't know. When we first met, we were on a hostile stance. In order to save a friend of mine, I wounded her. Later, her men killed her again.
She killed my men, and I killed her men again. I hated her very much at that time, and wanted to take revenge on her. One day she came to me and tried to do me harm several times. I was so angry that I lost my head, so
It hurt her. I never thought she liked me, she seemed to only hate me."
Bai Jian was also stunned, "It's so complicated, no wonder you are in so much pain. I suggest you go to her once and explain everything clearly. Maybe it will be better."
"Will she really listen to me?" Thinking of Mo Yue's eyes when she left, I felt a chill in my heart.
Bai Jian asked: "Why are you so depressed? How did you hurt her and make it so difficult for you."
I glanced at her with embarrassment on my face.
Bai Jian's eyes suddenly widened, he covered his mouth with his hand and said, "Could it be that you, can't you? You..."
I looked at her surprised look and knew that she had already guessed it. In this case, I had nothing to hide. I smiled bitterly and said: "It's exactly what you guessed. I don't know why I did that at the time. Did you
Think I’m bad.”
Bai Jian's face was full of horror, "You, you really..."
I nodded affirmatively, "That's why I'm in so much pain. I really feel sorry for her."
The blood on Bai Jian's face faded. She took out the amethyst I gave her just now from her arms, put it on the table, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I can't accept your gift. I'm going down first. What are your instructions?"
You call me again."
Bai Jian's actions immediately brought me great excitement. I knew that in her eyes, I might have turned into a despicable and shameless gangster. Even Bai Jian, a girl I just met, would be like this. That Zi Yan
Wouldn't their reaction be stronger if they knew it? I didn't have any reason to keep Bai Jian, so I watched her walk quickly towards the door. When she reached the door, Bai Jian suddenly stopped, turned her back to me and said, "Since I did something wrong,
You have to face it bravely and take your responsibilities, otherwise..." She went out without finishing her sentence.
I know what she wants to say, otherwise you are not a man. She is right, since you have done something wrong, you must face it bravely. I will make it clear to Zi Yan and Zixue, and I will also go to Mo Yue. Although I
I know she hates me, but I will definitely be responsible for her. As for Zi Yan and the others, I can only hope that they can forgive me, otherwise, I will have to admit it. The word love is really...

Demonic Palace.
"My daughter pays homage to her father." Mo Yue Yingying knelt down and saluted the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor laughed and walked down from his throne, helped Mo Yue up, looked at her up and down, and said: "My good daughter, why have you lost weight? Did you go too crazy this time?
"
When Mo Yue heard her father ask this question, she couldn't help but think of the scene in the forest. Her face turned red and she said angrily: "Dad——"
The Demon Emperor smiled and said: "Okay, stop acting like a spoiled brat and go back to the harem first. Your Uncle Furukawa and I still have something to say."
Mo Yue nodded and said: "Yes, Father." She turned around and left. The Demon Emperor was a little dazed watching her leave. This was not like the usual Mo Yue. She usually had to pester the Demon Emperor and not let him go.
He would be so obedient.
The Demon Emperor turned around and asked Furukawa: "What's wrong with Yue'er? It seems like she has changed into a different person."
Furukawa smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know what happened to her. The night before we negotiated with the orcs, Yue'er ran away secretly, and she became like this after she came back. It's because I failed to protect the princess, Your Majesty.
, please punish me."
The Demon King shook his head and said: "This girl is too crazy, let alone you, I can't control her, it's okay, as long as she comes back safely, you don't have to blame yourself too much, you did a great job this time,
I am very satisfied. Have you met the leaders of the orcs? Are they really as powerful as Sucha said?"
Furukawa nodded heavily and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the orcs will never be controlled by us again. The orcs who led the troops to attack us this time were King Behemoth Leo and his third son Lei Xiang, as well as a group of orcs.
A two-headed werewolf, and a Hydra man. Except for King Beamon, the rest of them all have good strength, especially the young man named Lei Xiang. He has the appearance of a human, and I can't actually
I can see through him, he once teamed up with Hydra and Two-Headed Wolf to resist my attack. Although Hydra was seriously injured, I was also slightly injured."
The Demon King snorted and said, "So, they all have strength no less than that of the fallen angels."
Furukawa replied: "Yes, on the surface, the Hydra is the most terrifying, but I feel that the most threatening person is Lei Xiang, the third son of King Behemoth. He always has an unfathomable feeling, and he does have
No less intelligent than human beings, according to our spies, this raid was exactly his idea. After the battle, they returned to the Orc Kingdom, and the Beast King actually handed over the position of commander-in-chief of the Orc Army to this guy who was not even close to him.
As a 20-year-old boy, it is conceivable that he must be outstanding, and we must prepare early."
The Demon King pondered: "Is it possible to bribe this person?"
Furukawa shook his head and said: "In order to win over him, the Beast Emperor adopted him as his adopted son and made him a prince. I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to win him over. In addition, Your Majesty, I found that the princess's power seems to have increased a lot."
The Demon King was surprised and said: "Really? Yue'er's skills have not improved for a long time. I will go see her later. Let's leave the orc thing like this for now. By the way, dear brother, you know what I do
Can Sucha handle it?"
Furukawa smiled and said: "He suffered a defeat this time, but I think you must not have punished him severely. After all, he still has many followers, and now is not the time to fall out with him."
"You're right. I didn't punish him severely. I just asked him to go home and reflect. At the same time, he was deprived of his military power. I'm afraid he himself is also upset." The Demon Emperor and Furukawa looked at each other and smiled. In fact,
If Sucha hadn't been too careless at the beginning, with the 200,000 troops he led, even if he couldn't break Stanla City, he wouldn't have suffered such huge losses. It can only be said that he was deceived by the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor told Furukawa to rest, and returned to the harem alone to find Mo Yue. He had a dozen children in total, but the only one he cherished so much was this Yue'er. Although she was very naughty, the Demon Emperor could always learn from Mo Yue.
She found the image of her beloved concubine in her body.
"Yue'er, Yue'er." The Demon Emperor walked into Mo Yue's bedroom.
Mo Yue was sitting on the bed in a daze. She could always recall the scene in the forest in her mind. She clearly remembered that for a while, the meridians in her body seemed to explode. But what did that person eat for her? When she woke up,
After arriving, she found that her skills had greatly improved. Mo Yue's mood at the moment was no less complex than Lei Xiang's, or even more so. Lei Xiang's main feelings were regret and shame, while Mo Yue's mood was not just hatred, but also some
There was a wonderful feeling inside. Even she couldn't explain it clearly. Lei Xiang's resolute and handsome face could not be left in her mind.
"Dad, why are you here?"
The Demon King smiled and said: "I came to see my good daughter. Why are you so good and stay in the room today? This is not like you. Are you tired from going out this time?"
Mo Yue shook her head and said, "I'm not tired."
The Demon Emperor suddenly raised his left hand and grabbed Mo Yue's right shoulder. Mo Yue was startled. His body subconsciously swayed strangely, and a force came out of his shoulder, which pushed the Demon Emperor's grasp aside. The force of the counterattack made the Demon Emperor
The palms of his hands were slightly numb. The Demon Emperor was immediately shocked. Although he had not yet returned to the state of four wings, the Heavenly Demon Art had returned to the sixth level. What seemed like a simple grab actually blocked all Mo Yue's dodge routes.
, but I didn’t expect this to be the result.
Mo Yue said angrily: "Dad, what are you doing?"
The Demon Emperor asked in surprise: "Yue'er, what level have you reached in your Heavenly Demon Jue training?"
Mo Yue shook her head and said: "I don't know, it seems to have improved a lot."
"Hand out your hand, let daddy take a look." Mo Yue stretched out her left hand, and the Demon Emperor put three fingers on her veins, slowly moved his strength, and used dark magic to explore Mo Yue's body. He found that the dark magic in Mo Yue's body was abnormal.
