After I left, the devil was distraught

The voice of the male demon in charge fell for a long time, and there was no response from the audience, so he waved his hand to signal the demon next to him to lead the demon slave out of the cage and hand it over to the male demon who concealed his face.

And this is already the fifth demon slave that the male demon has photographed tonight, all of them are of the best quality, and they are all asked for a high price that is rarely seen on weekdays.

"What are you looking at? If you look at it indiscriminately, you will dig your eyes out. Hurry up and go in!"

Su Qingyao was rudely stuffed into a carriage, only to find that there were four other demon slaves in it.They all looked good, but at this moment, they all lowered their heads and leaned against the wall of the carriage, with expressionless faces as if resigned to their fate, but how could he resign to his fate.

The male demon in charge was naturally in a good mood thinking of the many spirit stones he could get from the middle, and smiled and sent away the buyer who hadn't shown up from the beginning to the end.

In the carriage, Su Qingyao looked around calmly, calculating the possibility of escaping.

However, he soon discovered that there was no way to escape at this time. Although there were only two guards escorting the carriage, they were all high-strength monsters, and he had already been cast with a spell to suppress his cultivation. He can only look for another opportunity.

The carriage never stopped, and after a long detour, it bumped into a palace through a small hidden door.

Su Qingyao was still thinking about how to escape when she was pushed down from the carriage by the guards, but she fell into despair when she raised her eyes and saw the three gilt characters of 'Demon Emperor's Palace' on the plaque.

His nails dug into his palm involuntarily, and traces of blood soon oozed out.

No one in the demon world knows that the demon emperor has a violent nature, and he is even more merciless when he is in bed. It has long been rumored that there will be heart-piercing and desperate screams from the demon emperor's palace every night, and every morning he will carry out a A pet corpse in human form.

Now it seems that all of this is true, and he is the pet who is about to be sent to the Demon Emperor's bed.

But even so, he must find a way to survive!

He cannot die, and he will never die!

"You will serve His Majesty the Demon Emperor tonight."

The lower jaw was suddenly lifted violently by a pair of rough hands, and Su Qingyao came back to her senses.

"Are you deaf?! Why don't you hurry in and serve His Majesty the Demon Emperor!?" Seeing that he didn't respond, the guard immediately yelled viciously.

Soon, Su Qingyao was pushed into the hall with a pale face by the guards at the door. He was thrown to the ground hard and closed his eyes in despair.

There were rustling sounds in his ears, followed by a trace of coldness across his face, he opened his eyes suddenly, and met a pair of vertical pupils glowing green.

Su Qingyao quickly forced herself to calm down, and said softly with a charming smile all over her face: "Your Majesty, this is the first time for Yao'er, please take pity on..."

He naturally knew that the prototype of the Demon Emperor was a giant python, and now if he wanted to survive, he could only find a way to arouse the Demon Emperor's pity.

It was the first time that a demon slave didn't scream when he saw him, and there was a hint of interest in Yu Xiao's eyes, but he didn't restrain his movements at all.

The long night was just about to begin, and there were bursts of forbearable pleadings in the dim hall.

But this time, it was rare for Yu Xiao not to kill the demon slave, and he finally left a sigh of relief...

----

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

At this time, in the Shura Hall, on the extremely delicate golden nanmu carved couch, the stunning young man slowly opened his eyes.

Xue Qiong squinted her eyes in confusion and looked at the extravagant furnishings around her before realizing that this was the Demon Realm, not his hut on Xuanyun Mountain.

He rubbed his sore temples, yawned and sat up from the bed.

Subconsciously glanced at the ground beside the bed, the embers were not there, and the bedding laid out yesterday had already been put away.

Looking up at the window again, Xue Qiong realized that it was getting late.

He lay down early last night, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He couldn't help but think about some messy things in his mind. He only fell asleep when the sky was getting brighter, and he fell asleep until now.

After sitting blankly against the bedpost for a long time, Xue Qiong got down and pushed open the gate of Shura Hall after fully waking up.

Nanxi had been waiting outside the bedroom. Seeing the door was opened inward, he immediately went up to greet him and said respectfully, "Your Highness, are you awake? This servant will help you to wash up."

After living in Xuanyun Mountain for three years, there were only a few people she saw back and forth, when a new face suddenly appeared, Xue Qiong couldn't help but was stunned, and after a while, she asked with some doubts: "Who are you? "

"The servant's name is Nanxi, and he is a servant serving His Highness." Nanxi replied respectfully.

"Were you always serving me in the past?" Xue Qiong continued to ask.

"...Yes, it's a slave." Nanxi seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, she was already panicked in her heart.But thinking of the Demon King's instructions, he could only bite his head and continue: "It has been since His Highness married into the Demon Realm, and the slaves have been following him to serve..."

"Then do you know why I lost my memory?" Xue Qiong tentatively asked again: "What misunderstanding is there between me and Ember?"

"Back, back to Your Highness, you haven't told me about these things before... I, I don't know." Nanxi swallowed subconsciously, but she was wondering why there are so many demon servants in her heart. It is simply difficult for the king to choose him.

In fact, Ember chose him for a reason. Born as a devil, it is extremely hard to find someone as honest and kind as Nanxi, and Ember immediately ignored his stupid flaws.

The servant in front of him was obviously nervous, but Xue Qiong didn't ask any more questions, but ordered him to fetch warm water, and washed himself up.

He is not used to being served by others, but he prefers to do it himself.

After breakfast, Xueqiong couldn't wait to go out again.

He had already seen the entire Demon Palace in general yesterday, and today he wanted to walk more carefully, maybe he would be able to recall something vividly.

It's just that before he walked out of the Asura Hall, he was attracted by a somewhat remote gate not far away.

Yesterday he was only focused on looking outside, only now did he realize that there is actually a courtyard in the Asura Hall?

"Nanxi, where does that gate lead to?" Xue Qiong asked softly, pointing to the vermilion gate not far away.

Looking in the direction Xue Qiong pointed, Nanxi's knees softened and she almost knelt down.

Yesterday, the demon lord told him for a long time, saying that he must never let the queen approach that side hall.

Speaking of which, the door is obviously hidden, but I don't know why the queen still notices it.

Nan Xi's heart trembled, but he still pretended to be calm and replied according to Ember's order: "Return to Your Highness, it's just an abandoned yard with some sundries piled inside."

Without waiting for Xueqiong to ask again, he hastily suggested: "Your Highness, why don't we go for a walk in the garden. I heard that the lotus flowers in the lake are all in bloom, and they are very beautiful."

The servant in front of him seemed to be more nervous than in the morning, Xue Qiong slowly withdrew her gaze, and walked towards the gate without responding.

Seeing this, Nanxi hurriedly followed, and urged: "Your Highness, that's really just an abandoned yard!"

Xueqiong seemed to have never heard of it, but her pace quickened a little.

But before he actually walked to the gate, when he was still a few steps away from the vermilion gate, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Sullen, a layer of sadness suddenly covered her heart, and Xue Qiong stopped involuntarily.

He slowly put his hand on the atrium, feeling his heartbeat a little faster than usual, subconsciously frowned slightly.

Almost without hesitation, Xueqiong suppressed the discomfort in her body, stepped up her pace and continued walking towards the gate.

When he took a closer look, he realized that this yard seemed to be just an abandoned yard as Nanxi said.

The vermilion gate was already mottled due to years of disrepair, Xue Qiong raised her hand and gently touched it, but suddenly her heart trembled, as if something was anxiously trying to break through the ice.

His subordinates exerted a little force, but the door didn't move at all, but the door was obviously not locked, which showed that it was restrained.

"Xueqiong, why did you come here?"

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind, Xue Qiong looked back, met Ember's somewhat complicated eyes, and said lightly: "Just walking around casually. Ember, what is in this yard?"

Seeing that the young man looked as usual, Ember heaved a sigh of relief, and answered, "It's just an abandoned courtyard. It hasn't been cleaned for a long time. It's very dirty. If you like it, I'll order my servants to clean it out. You see You can do whatever you want with it.”

"Then you open it, I want to see it right now." Xue Qiong looked straight into Ember's eyes and said.

Being stared at so directly, even Ember was not calm for a moment.

He hastily avoided the young man's eyes, and said again: "Going in will stain your clothes, how about waiting for a few days after cleaning?"

After a long time, Xue Qiong lowered her eyes and nodded, as if she had compromised.

But how could he really compromise, he's not stupid, Nanxi's nervousness, the complexity in Ember's eyes, and the inexplicable sadness in his heart when he approached the yard, all of these showed one thing.

This courtyard must be inextricably related to him.

----

One afternoon a few days later, Ember had something to go out and said he would not be back until later, Xue Qiong sent him away from Shura Hall with a smile.

Afterwards, he also dismissed Nanxi.

Xueqiong then went to the door, raised her hand again to touch the rough door panel.

In fact, he can open the restriction on the door.

Before leaving Xuanyun Mountain, Hu Xiaoxiao had gifted him with several magic weapons, among them was a formation-breaking talisman, which could break many magic formation restrictions.

Taking out the formation breaking talisman from the storage ring, Xue Qiong gently touched the mottled door with it, and with a 'ding' sound, it seemed that some invisible barrier shattered.

Immediately afterwards, there was a long 'squeak' sound, and the door slowly and spontaneously opened inward after losing its restraint.

Xue Qiong couldn't help being stunned by everything that unfolded in front of his eyes. After a long time, he stepped into the courtyard.
