Chapter 1390 'Mu Xue’s Death (1)”

“It seems the little rascal has won everyone over while I’m not aware. I might as well make him the king that way if he’s so popular, that way the throne is secured.”

First Elder visibly flinched as his mouth twitched at the jab. It’s no secret to this old timer that Bai Xiachen doesn’t want to rule over the Demon Realm, otherwise why else would Di Cang say that?

Taking a few steps back: “This… His Highness won’t let me go if he finds out I’m the cause.”

“Hmph, it’s not a problem to side with Xiachen in front of me, but remember who is really in charge of the Demon Realm right now!” Di Cang’s sourly states this, not willing to lose face despite being a wife slave.

Wiping some of the sweat off his forehead, First Elder felt troubled and caught in a bind. “Of course Your Majesty, I will only side with you in the future and not the prince. I will especially side with you when the queen gets involved.”

However, instead of getting happy and lighting up, Di Cang’s mood only grew dimmer: “It seems my words never got through to your head. Whether it is Xiachen or me, everyone must side with my wife when caught in an argument! If my wife says one then you can’t say two, do you understand?!”

In short, he’s allowed to lecture the boy if Bai Yan’s not involved, otherwise they must support whatever the demon queen says if she does.

Almost wanting to roll his old eyes at the contradicting order now, First Elder wanted to facepalm himself: “Yes, yes, of course Your Majesty.”

“Mmm,” only then did the demon king remove his gaze from the troubled senior.

Mu Xue who’s been lifelessly lying on the ground didn’t miss that proclamation of course. This was equivalent to a second punch in her gut, making the girl puke blood due to the unwilling frustration she felt.

Red Leaf on the other hand remained silent to one side. She’s also feeling guilty and complex inside. If she had known Bai Yan would be this favored before the king then the woman would’ve long come to report Mu Xue’s crime and scheme. Now the damage has been and she could never repair what has been done, nor could she revive her own dead brother as a result…..

I’m partly responsible for my little brother’s death, I’m at fault too!

Understanding this much, the pained older sister closed her eyes and placed all the guilt on herself. However, the cold gaze coming out of Di Cang instantly brought her back to reality and the situation she was still in.

“Although you were forced by Mu Xue to do what you did, it doesn’t change the fact that you conspired to harm the royal family. For that, I won’t forgive you.”

“I understand Your Majesty, I know what to do.” Showing a bitter smile, Red Leaf didn’t mind dying today. She’s already lost the only family she had left in this world. What point was there to keep living?

“Alright,” Di Cang then shifts his gaze over to the lump of meat nearby, “but, as an act of mercy from me, I will give you one last chance to get revenge for your family! No matter what you do to this traitor of the leopard tribe, I won’t intervene!”

An inexplicable light burst forward from Red Leaf’s eye then. She couldn’t stop her body from trembling because this was exactly what she wanted right now. Before she only beat Mu Xue to a pulp, not go for her life. Now she’s gotten permission!

The king is willing to give me this chance?

YES! YES! I will make this vile witch pay for what she did to my brother! I will let her know what it means to suffer!
