Chapter 606 - 606 606 Caught Cheating by the Demon Emperor

Chapter 606: Chapter 606 Caught Cheating by the Demon Emperor Chapter 606: Chapter 606 Caught Cheating by the Demon Emperor Concubine Yunxia was startled.

Not to mention her strong resistance.

Just Jiang Fan being in the Spirit Pond.

She couldn’t possibly agree.

“Yunxia has finished bathing, and will dress now.”

“Please, Demon Emperor, step back.”

She spoke coldly, her expression icy.

Leaving no room for ambiguity with the Demon Emperor.

The Demon Emperor’s face stiffened slightly, his mood flickering.

There was no need to guess; he was very angry.

But for some unknown reason, he restrained himself, and after a long pause, he sighed and said,

“Yunxia, it has been so many years.”

“How much longer will you refuse me?”

“Jiang Fan is just a human prisoner. After spending a few days with him, you developed feelings for him and even defied my orders to let him go.”

“All the effort I’ve put in over the years, does it not mean anything to you?”

At the mention of Jiang Fan.

Concubine Yunxia’s heart raced.

She felt extremely guilty.

A lie told once required a hundred lies to cover it up.

Initially, there was nothing between her and Jiang Fan.

Now, it was a tangled mess.

She maintained her cold demeanor and said, “If it concerns the Demon Race’s affairs, Yunxia is willing to discuss it with the Demon Emperor.”

“If it’s these unrelated personal matters, the Demon Emperor need not say more.”

The Demon Emperor’s face turned somber.

His attempt to play the emotional card was blocked by Concubine Yunxia’s cold words.

“Yunxia, what do I have to do for you to accept me?”

Concubine Yunxia replied indifferently, “I don’t understand what the Demon Emperor is saying.”

As she dealt with the Demon Emperor.

Jiang Fan’s Mute Zen voice unexpectedly echoed in her mind.

“Concubine Yunxia, what is your relationship with the Demon Emperor?”

“It doesn’t sound like you’re a married couple.”

He had always sensed something peculiar about their relationship.

Now it seemed even more off.

It appeared that Concubine Yunxia was very averse to the Demon Emperor.

Yet the mighty Demon Emperor couldn’t do anything about it.

Concubine Yunxia was startled, quickly scolding within her mind:

“Are you courting death?”

“Daring to speak to me now?”

“What if the Demon Emperor finds out?”

Jiang Fan helplessly replied, “I’m just reminding you to keep it short.”

“I’m running out of breath.”

After all, he wasn’t a Water Series demon.

Nor did he have a Water-Repelling Pearl or similar magical treasures.

At the moment, hiding in the Spiritual Liquid, he could only rely on holding his breath to avoid detection.

Concubine Yunxia realized that Jiang Fan couldn’t hold his breath for long.

If he were exposed, it would be catastrophic!

“Demon Emperor, please withdraw!”

Concubine Yunxia said coldly, her face showing clear displeasure.

The Demon Emperor’s face grew solemn.

Without a word, he fastened his jade belt and floated away.

Before leaving, he glanced at the Spiritual Liquid splashed all over the ground, his eyes narrowing.

Pretending nothing was amiss, he disappeared.

Concubine Yunxia let out a slight sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to speak and tell him to come out quickly.

Jiang Fan’s Mute Zen voice sounded in her mind again.

“Don’t speak.”

“The Demon Emperor might not have left.”

“He is a very suspicious person; seeing this place in such disarray, he will surely have doubts.”

Concubine Yunxia’s heart skipped a beat.

Indeed, the Demon Emperor was such a person.

She pretended to lie in the Spirit Pond unconcernedly, letting out a long breath as if relieved.

But in her mind, she was furious.

“Jiang Fan! Look at what you’ve done!”

“I haven’t done anything, yet you’ve made it look like… like I’ve wronged the Demon Emperor.”

She felt extremely aggrieved.

If Jiang Fan were discovered and dragged out of the Spirit Pond by the Demon Emperor.

Anything she explained would sound weak.

Just as the crude phrase went.

When mud falls into the pants, regardless of if it is, it looks like it is.

Jiang Fan snorted, “Isn’t this your fault?”

“If you had let me go earlier, none of this would have happened.”

“Now you’ve dragged it until the Demon Emperor came.”

Concubine Yunxia retorted angrily, “And you have the nerve to mention it?”

“If it wasn’t for your Cultivation Method that led you to my bathing area, would we be in this mess?”

“I’ll tell you, sooner or later, I will kill you!”

She desperately wanted a world without Jiang Fan.

However.

As soon as she said this.

Her face changed.

He had pinched her thigh.

Fortunately, she had been touched by Jiang Fan twice before, so she had somewhat built up immunity.

She didn’t scream.

But in her mind, she angrily scolded, “Jiang Fan! What are you doing?”

“Touch me again, and we’ll perish together!”

Jiang Fan chuckled, “People say you’re gentle, but where’s the gentleness?”

“You’re always either throwing a fit or on your way to throw one.”

“Whoever said you were gentle must be blind.”

Concubine Yunxia was so angry she couldn’t speak.

Why had she become like this?

Wasn’t it because of this bastard?

At this moment, she only wanted to get away from Jiang Fan quickly, saying, “How long can you hold your breath?”

Jiang Fan replied through Mute Zen, “Less than a minute.”

“It’s best the Demon Emperor leaves within a minute, or else…”

Concubine Yunxia’s heart jumped.

Knowing that Jiang Fan couldn’t last much longer, she grew anxious.

Her only option was to leave the pond herself.

Then the Demon Emperor might dispel his doubts.

“Close your eyes.”

“Why?”

“I’m getting dressed.”

“Have you closed them?”

“Yes.”

“How many fingers am I holding up?”

“Three…”

“Jiang Fan!” Concubine Yunxia scolded in humiliation, “You are shameless!”

Jiang Fan smacked his lips and said, “Okay, okay, I won’t look.”

“I’ve already touched you more than once, yet you won’t even let me look.”

Concubine Yunxia felt a dull pain in her chest.

She wanted to find a place far away from Jiang Fan to cultivate her emotions.

If it continued like this, she would fall ill from anger.

Gritting her teeth.

Not caring if Jiang Fan was peeking, she withdrew her hands tightly pressed to her chest.

Preparing to pull her gown from the air to wear.

Suddenly.

From behind came the Demon Emperor’s faint voice.

“Yunxia, are you bathing alone?”

This startled Concubine Yunxia’s soul nearly out of her body.

She turned her head.

The Demon Emperor stood with his arms crossed, squinting at the seemingly bottomless Spirit Pond.

Concubine Yunxia’s heart pounded wildly.

Jiang Fan was right; the Demon Emperor was suspicious.

Luckily, with Jiang Fan’s reminder, she didn’t show any panic.

Her face turned cold as she said, “Demon Emperor, what do you mean?”

The Demon Emperor replied indifferently, “Exactly what it sounds like.”

Then his body shook.

A wave of Nascent Soul energy swept across the Spirit Pond.

Except for the area around Concubine Yunxia, every part of the water was under the pressure of the Nascent Soul energy.

Not to mention hiding a person.

Even if there was a bug, it would be crushed to death.

In an instant.

Jiang Fan’s body was pressed by the Nascent Soul energy, causing excruciating pain.

And the Nascent Soul energy kept increasing.

He was on the verge of splitting apart and bleeding.

Which would mean being exposed.

In this critical moment.

Two jade-like hands silently pulled Jiang Fan closer.

Jiang Fan found himself in Concubine Yunxia’s arms in a princess carry.

The milky-white Spiritual Liquid obscured the Demon Emperor’s view.

He didn’t see Concubine Yunxia’s actions.

His attention was focused on areas other than Concubine Yunxia.

The Nascent Soul energy emanating more strongly, making the Spirit Pond boil and bubble.

Little did he know.

Jiang Fan was nestled snugly in Concubine Yunxia’s arms.

Safe from the oppressive Nascent Soul energy.

Jiang Fan was bewildered.

His face felt soft; it moved, and he realized he was pressed against her chest.

“Don’t move!”

“Move again, and we perish together!”

Concubine Yunxia’s voice rang out in his mind, laced with both shame and anger.

Jiang Fan dared not move, obediently pressing his face back against her chest.
