Chapter 256 - 252: Hey! Why are you from the Human Clan spacing out?

Chapter 256: Chapter 252: Hey! Why are you from the Human Clan spacing out?

Yang Fu looked at Youyouzi’s delicate, tear-stained face, so appealing and seemingly on the verge of dripping tears, and found it hard to reconcile with her being 200 years old.

At most, she looked like a 30-year-old young woman, and one who had all the best attributes of that age rolled into one.

Voluptuous, sexy, flawless in physique.

Her clothes were boldly revealing, and at a glance, one could spot white flesh everywhere…

Honestly, Yang Fu had never seen someone who could stir up such desire, a being seemingly born for the sole purpose of tempting men…

And that was why he punished the Enchanting Demons by sending them to break new ground.

...

Otherwise, constantly having these Enchanting Demons prancing around him… it was too much of a test of willpower.

He watched Youyouzi’s performance and said indifferently, “From what I know… the Enchanting Demon Clan is the wealthiest family in Sunshine City. Do you really need someone else to save you?”

“That’s merely the grace of the City Lords… If you’re after our wealth, just take it all,” she responded.

“Then I’ll have Old Niu and Old Hei take inventory tomorrow.”

Upon hearing this, Youyouzi quickly sobbed in a low voice:

“Wuu~ City Lord… I have to support over a hundred of our clan members. If you take this little wealth, the Enchanting Demon Clan might end up homeless and unkempt on the streets, and you’ll never again see an Enchanting Demon dressed exquisitely~”

“It’s a deal, double happiness!”

Yang Fu was thrilled, what could be better than this?

Youyouzi was stunned and blinked her bewitchingly peachy eyes.

No, this isn’t how it’s supposed to go.

Isn’t it supposed to be me acting pitiful, you showing compassion, then I retreat, you advance, and then… So today is to placate the Enchanting Demons day or what?

Seeing Youyouzi’s puzzled expression, Yang Fu put away his smile and said calmly:

“Clan Leader Youyouzi, stop with these pretenses, and speak plainly. If there’s nothing important, I still have work to do.”

Only then did Youyouzi realize she’d been played by Yang Fu.

She bit her rosy lips, glanced at Yang Fu with reddened eyes, and spoke:

“City Lord… Everything I said before is true. Our Enchanting Demon Clan is weak and has survived these years only by the protection of the City Lord. If you abandon us… All of us Enchanting Demons will be divided up by these crude Demon Clans and become their playthings, never again to see the light of day.”

Yang Fu, hearing this, became somewhat serious.

“Under my rule, such things won’t happen. All Demon Clans must follow the law. You just need to do your job, and if such a thing really happens… I will intervene.”

“I want to believe you’re a good City Lord, the best we’ve encountered in many years. But… our Enchanting Demon Clan really can’t afford to lose our previous status, otherwise everything changes. We will be oppressed to death. Even if by some fluke we don’t become playthings, we can no longer maintain our pure bodies to serve the City Lord.”

Yang Fu thought for a moment upon hearing this, slightly frowning.

There was some truth in her words. Everyone loves kicking someone when they’re down, relishing the unique thrill of bringing high and lofty immortals down to the Mortal World.

Everyone’s darker side harbors such desires… This was something Yang Fu learned from the “Thick Black Science” imparted by his ancestors.

Seeing Yang Fu deep in thought, Youyouzi pressed her point: “City Lord, please take our Enchanting Demon Clan in. I’m willing to serve you with all my heart, taking care of all living matters for you, ensuring you have a comfortable day’s work.”

“I… this is also my first time saying this. I couldn’t help but speak out upon seeing your extraordinary demeanor. Ever since I was little, my father…”

“Your father disappeared, your mother fell ill, you have sisters to feed, inexperienced the first time doing it?”

“Eh?”

Yang Fu chuckled at Youyouzi’s surprise: “To my knowledge, isn’t that what you told City Lord Gongsun? Speaking of which… haven’t you developed any feelings for him in these past five years? He had barely left before you couldn’t wait to come to me?”

Seeing her rhetoric exposed, Youyouzi wasn’t upset but said firmly, “I don’t care who the City Lord is, I just want to be the City Lord’s wife.”

“Or it could be one of my sisters. As long as an Enchanting Demon becomes your wife, that’s all that matters. It’s our clan’s means of survival; we have no choice.”

At that moment, Yang Fu actually sensed a hint of fatalism in her voice.

But then he thought…

“Pure nonsense!”

“If you don’t want to work, then just say so. All those excuses… could working really starve you to death?”

“You didn’t have a choice before, but now, you can be good demons.”

“Go back, and don’t bring this up again, or you’ll be starting with three months of pioneering work.”

“Oh…” Youyouzi left with a look of deep resentment.

Inside the City Lord Mansion.

Two bootlicking Evil Eyes immediately started taking turns:

“Clearly, the Enchanting Demon Clan’s plot has failed.”

“The City Lord truly is omniscient! To have known her tactics, City Lord Gongsun could not hold out before…”

“City Lord Yang is no mere mortal, he is beyond comparison with that Gongsun Taixu,” they said.

“I bet City Lord Yang will surely attain the Immortal Path someday. Just don’t forget about us!”

As the two Evil Eyes rambled on, Yang Fu gestured for them to stop.

“Enough, stop the noise… Continue with the issue of famine in Sunshine City.”

“I see many Demon Clans going hungry; you two claim to know everything, so tell me, what’s the problem?”

Evil Eye 1 promptly said, “The Demon Clans are lazy! They do enough work to eat two meals and then take the rest of the day off, starving when there’s no work.”

Evil Eye 2, not to be outdone, added, “There’s too little arable Spirit Field in Sunshine City. When the city was being planned, nobody foresaw such a large influx of Demon Clans. The Spirit Fields included within the Array simply aren’t enough to feed so many of us, so a lot of Demon Clans are constantly starving.”
