"Yes, we originally thought there would be a fierce battle that would give us an opportunity, but it turned out to be a one-sided stomp on weaker opponents. It's really disappointing."
The two consecutive sentences of great disappointment show that the two people in the conversation are extremely disappointed in their former Demon King. Unfortunately, the Demon King, who always thought highly of himself, was unaware of this.
"Alright, now that Lin Xueyin has returned to the Demon King's Castle with the Demon King, it will be difficult for us to continue our work. However, we still need the energy within her for that matter."
"Energy? I did manage to collect some when that light appeared. Such pure holy magic is probably something even a holy priest at the Saint rank would find hard to possess."
A ball of light was tossed into the air, its radiance dazzling.
Volume 10: The Reviving Demon God - Chapter 1: Shopping with Nana (Two chapters released together)
The wind howled, and the journey was filled with noise. The black dragon spread its wings and sped towards the Demon King's Castle in the distance. At such a rapid pace, Lin Xueyin did not know how fast it was, but she had been traveling a long distance. In the blink of an eye, she could see the spire of the Demon King's Castle, making Lin Xueyin feel once again the black dragon king's lightning speed.
"What's wrong, Yukine? Do you really like this feeling?"
He wrapped his arms around Lin Xueyin's slender waist, whispering sweet nothings in her ear as he carefully inhaled the faint fragrance emanating from the young girl's body—a delicate scent that intoxicated and soothed her, a fragrance that captivated her.
"Nana, are you just going to leave your ex there like that? Aren't you afraid they'll run away?"
She placed her hands on the delicate hands that were around her waist, and gently rested her head on the shoulder of the person behind her. The sense of security she felt relieved the tension that had been weighing on her heart.
"tired?"
Without asking, seeing her current state, Elufina knew perfectly well that her trip had probably not been as enjoyable as she had imagined, and that she was actually even more exhausted.
"Yes, Nana, it's so good to have you here."
With her there, she didn't need to work so hard. At least she knew that her friend could help her resolve all the troubles. With a slight smile, she quietly closed her eyes.
"You know how good I am, so could you let me have my way today?"
"What do you want me to do?" Lin Xueyin asked, somewhat puzzled. Elufina, who was usually straightforward, was suddenly being so hesitant.
Her full lips parted and closed a few times near Lin Xueyin's ear, causing her delicate earlobes to swell with blood and turn an even more endearing pink. Her face, already flushed as if it could drip blood, now hung low on her chest.
"Nana, you scoundrel."
With a wicked grin, he swept the girl up in his arms and said, "I'm only being a rogue to you. Since you haven't directly objected, I'll take that as a yes."
"I, I didn't! You, you can't do that! It's too, too, too shameful!"
Her small hand weakly pushed against Elufina's chest, her delicate face causing the Demon King to involuntarily touch it before leaping down.
"Dragon King, you should go back now. I'm taking my wife to play."
The pair of eyes on the huge dragon's head, which should have been ruthless, now held a hint of a smile, the kind of kind smile between close friends and family.
"Nana, don't do this. It's not good if others see you like this."
Lin Xueyin never expected that Elufina would not take her directly back to the Demon King's Castle, but instead landed in front of the city gate of the Demon Capital.
With her feet firmly on the ground, Elufina walked slowly towards the bustling metropolis with a hint of a smile in her eyes.
Although held in Elufina's arms, Lin Xueyin still looked around curiously. Unlike the human capital she had visited, the demon race was originally a mixture of various races. Therefore, the people walking on the streets were all different kinds of people.
I had seen this scene before in Izumo City, but compared to Shanghai, it was nothing, not even in the same league.
"Nana, let me down, I want to..."
"No, you're going to stay in my arms all the way to the Demon King's Castle. What, don't you like that?"
Looking at the mischievous smile on her face, Lin Xueyin felt a little annoyed, but mostly shy. She wanted to bury her head in that soft bosom, but she couldn't resist the lively street around her.
"Do you like it here? Shanghai wasn't this nice back then. I remember when I was a kid, this place was mostly used for mobilizing soldiers. There were very few lively scenes like this."
"Yes, I know. Under your rule, the demon race will definitely get better and better." Her delicate hand gripped the girl's collar tightly, her pretty face filled with trust.
Looking at those constantly opening and closing lips, Elufina forced herself to savor the delicious taste of those pink lips, and could only lower her head and touch them on her pretty face.
"You need to understand that the better our demon race develops, the harder it will be for your human race to recover. Do you really want that?"
Mengmeng's eyes were as pure as a fawn's. "All things have a spirit. I am a priest, not the savior of humanity. As long as this continent is at peace, why should we turn against it? Are humans not doing well now, or is it that the demons are causing trouble everywhere?"
Lin Xueyin gently tapped Elufina's cheek. "This is a reward for you. You should know that. Don't worry, I'm not the kind of pedantic human who thinks about bizarre theories about human supremacy."
In fact, Lin Xueyin understood that the human race had never been the overlord of the continent. In their hearts, all they wanted was to divide the land and become a separatist power.
Moreover, this continent has been divided for far too long, and it is impossible to reunify it, not even for the demon race, let alone the human race.
Just like the European continent in my memory, it was once unified, but unfortunately, the subsequent division made it impossible for them to reunite. Even if there were an alliance, they still had their own agendas.
But China is a different concept. Even if it is divided for a century, it will eventually be unified. This is not the will of heaven, but a soul-deep imprint etched into its very bones. How can it be easily changed?
"Your Majesty the Demon King."
The demon soldiers who were patrolling along the way saw Elufina carrying Lin Xueyin from afar and quickly stepped forward to salute. Since they were on patrol, they could only perform a simple military salute.
"Okay, you guys continue, I'll just wander around here."
Several warriors looked at the two people in front of them with some fear. The Demon King and the Queen were strolling around here, and they had actually run into them. If they were even slightly dissatisfied, they would be committing a grave offense.
"You guys go ahead, this place is quite nice, really good."
Knowing the soldiers' worries, Lin Xueyin smiled and turned her head in the Demon King's arms, saying words that could reassure them.
"Get out of here."
Seeing that these people were actually somewhat distracted by Lin Xueyin's smile, Elufina was a little annoyed. How could they possibly covet her little girl?
He chuckled and patted Elufina's chest, then tapped her cheek again. "Alright, let's hurry back."
"Why don't you go outside for a walk? There are still plenty of places to explore here."
Well, Elufina admitted she was genuinely annoyed. The thought of Lin Xueyin shopping, chatting, and playing with her companions made her extremely unhappy. Even with her guard commander among them, she still felt uncomfortable.
Since Lin Xueyin came to her side, she has been staying in the Demon King's Castle and has never gone out with her. Now that she finally has a chance, she is determined to get everything back here.
"Still playing here? I'm practically being publicly executed by you. If you really want to play here, let me down. I'll walk around with you, okay?"
Although she didn't quite understand why, Lin Xueyin could tell from Elufina's expression that she was feeling down. It seemed to be because she had said she didn't want to wander around outside anymore.
"Go shopping with me?" His eyes suddenly lit up, and he put Lin Xueyin down on the ground, her feet, clad in white boots, returning to the ground.
The priest, whose robes were filled with a sacred aura, looked slightly disheveled from being carried the whole time. The girl lowered her head slightly and, with Elufina's help, straightened her robes.
“Little girl, let’s go for a walk together. There are many places to visit in Shanghai. You left in a hurry before, so I’m sure you didn’t have a chance to explore properly here.”
"Yes, I was in a hurry at the time, and it was early morning. I just walked straight through the main street and didn't have a chance to properly explore this brand-new demon capital under the Demon King's rule."
Two young girls, hand in hand, walked down this bustling street, where crowds of people from all ethnic groups were either setting up stalls to do business or strolling around shopping.
"Nana, what is that place?" Lin Xueyin pointed to a luxuriously built high-rise building. In such a place, it would be really difficult to build such a tall building without a powerful earth magician.
"That's the Keqin Auction House in Shanghai. This auction house has a long history. I remember it existed before the previous Demon King appeared."
"Was it passed down from ancient times?" Lin Xueyin looked at the luxuriously decorated auction house with some curiosity. "Keqin Auction?" she wondered, though. She wondered if she could go in and take a look.
"There should be an auction in the next few days. I'll bring you there then."
Lin Xueyin's cute nose twitched with affection as she watched her make a face at her with displeasure.
"Ha, you two little girls are spouting nonsense here. Do you even know where you are? It's not a place you two can just come and go as you please."
A slick-haired, powdered-faced man appeared before Lin Xueyin and Elufina, who frowned in displeasure, and casually unfolded a white paper fan in front of his chest.
"Is this guy out of his mind?" Lin Xueyin looked at the Demon King with confusion. This kind of being seemed a bit too brain-dead. Are there people like this in the demon race?
Elufina was not as calm as Lin Xueyin. She had brought her wife out, only to be mocked by some greasy-haired, powdered-faced jerk who appeared out of nowhere. It was a direct challenge to her authority. If she let him go, she would commit suicide on the spot.
"I never expected to see such a beautiful woman on this trip. How about coming with me? My father is the Grand Elder of the Demon Clan and a favorite minister of His Majesty the Demon King. If you come with me, you can freely enter and leave not only this auction house, but even the Demon King's Castle."
Looking at this smug man, he seemed quite different from the Grand Elder in Lin Xueyin's memory. At least the Grand Elder's aged and demonic appearance was hard to distinguish from this young man with a demonic face.
At least he didn't have a human face, while this one had the face of a spoiled human brat, making it obvious at a glance that he wasn't a good person.
Whenever Lin Xueyin saw him, several names would keep flashing through her mind: Gao Yanei, Ximen Qing.
"The Grand Elder's only son? Tusk." Upon hearing the man introduce himself, Elufina already knew who he was. A faint sneer appeared on her face, but her eyes were already filled with murderous intent.
Lin Xueyin couldn't help but feel sorry for this man. It's one thing to be a playboy, but how could he be so dissolute as to be a playboy in front of the Demon King? Even your father wouldn't dare to be so frivolous in front of the Demon King.
Tusk had no idea who the two people in front of him were. He was not qualified to meet the Demon King. Even before, Elphielna rarely appeared in public.
The demon people only know the name of the Demon Queen; very few have actually seen her. Unfortunately, Task is one of the majority who have never seen her.
However, while inquiring about the items to be auctioned in a few days at the auction house, he inadvertently saw the two young women passing by downstairs. One was exceptionally beautiful, and the other was alluring and charming, making even this playboy, who was used to seeing beautiful women in the demon realm, feel a surge of desire.
At first glance, he wanted to take both of them under his control. The feeling of having one dragon and two phoenixes would be indescribable, especially since this beautiful and peerless girl was a holy priest of the human race. The exhilarating feeling of tearing apart beauty was a constant reminder to this spoiled devil of the demon race.
The thought of two contrasting styles, one pure and beautiful, the other alluring and seductive, being pleasured beneath him was incredibly arousing, especially when he heard them want to go inside the auction house right after they came down. It was like finding a breakthrough.
"Since you know me, you should know that you only have one option at this moment."
Lin Xueyin helplessly covered her forehead. "You're just an elder's son, why are you so arrogant? Even if you don't know who the person in front of you is, you should know that since she knows your name just because she heard of your father, her status must be quite high. Are you really stupid to be so disrespectful to your father?"
Seeing that Elufina's pretty face had turned ashen, Lin Xueyin tenderly took her hand and gently touched her cheek with her lips. Only then did she manage to draw Elufina's attention to herself.
"Nana, don't be so angry, it's not worth it."
"Hmph, I never thought that despite my efforts to govern, such a black sheep would still appear. I really don't know how the Grand Elder raised his son."
She angrily flung her arm away, her eyes still blazing with rage. Although Lin Xueyin had just used a light, fleeting kiss to temporarily distract her, the man in front of her still ignited her anger.
"For the sake of the Grand Elder, I'll spare your dog's life."
Enraged by the other party's lack of tact and disgusted by his behavior, which made her self-proclaimed excellent Demon City appear flawed, Elufina waved her hand, and a condensed and solid battle aura pierced through the air. Even with numerous guards around and the fact that this playboy was not without power, he was still no match for the Demon King's casual strike.
The street was thrown into chaos by the sudden attack.
Volume 10: The Reviving Demon God: Chapter 2 - Fate (Both chapters combined)
"What's going on? In the capital, who dares to cause trouble without cause?" Pushing aside the somewhat chaotic crowd, a group of well-equipped city guards stepped forward. Tasker, who was clearly a squad leader, collapsed to the ground in terror. He hurriedly took a few steps forward.
"Young Master Tasker, who dares to lay a hand on you? Men, help him up!"
"I don't need your help to get me up. Just arrest these criminals who are causing trouble in the street." Seeing the arrival of the city guards, Task felt like he had a powerful backer.
Although the Grand Elder did not have much real power, he still had a firm grip on the city guards. Therefore, in his eyes, the city guards were essentially his family's private army, which he could use at will.
Of course, the woman in front of them was very strong, and these few city guards were definitely no match for her. However, these city guards represented the face of the Demon King. If they dared to resist, they would be surrounded and attacked by many experts from the Demon City.
"They'll all be caught eventually," Tusk thought, already imagining how he would make them cry and kneel before him, begging for mercy and confessing their actions beneath his throbbing body.
"Yes, yes, Master Tasker, we'll get started right away."
