Venerated Venomous Consort

“If that is the case, our arrangement will end here. I don’t want to be involved in any relationships! There is no need to act anymore!” Gu Xijiu’s pretty face turned cold and serious very quickly.

Di Fuyi’s eyes deepened as he leisurely replied, “You made the right assumption earlier.”

“Ah?”

“Yin Jiusi is a leader that is rare to find. I don’t want him to be sacrificed due to this matter. Therefore, I should take his place. Besides, I am not afraid of your apprentice wanting to seek revenge.”

Although he sounded a bit arrogant, Gu Xijiu was partially relieved. Nevertheless, there was still a feeling of discomfort in her heart, but she tried to ignore it.

…

During the night in a guesthouse located at the suburb of the devil world, Fan Qianshi sat on a chair with Yin Mingzhu standing in front of him. She was the daughter of the Devil King.

Yin Mingzhu reported to him on Di Fuyi’s whereabouts. His presence in the Devil Kingdom gave her a glimmer of hope. “National Master Di did not contact anyone since he arrived in the devil world, but I saw him meeting father several times. Do you think he is trying to assist my father in regaining his power from the regent?”

Fan Qianshi did not want to comment but asked, “What did he talk to your father about? Did your father reveal anything to you?”

Yin Mingzhu shook her head. “My father met him privately. None of the servants from either side was allowed to join the conversation, so I have no clue what they talked about.”

“You didn’t ask?

“I did! My father said that Di Fuyi only talked to him about the customs here in the Devil Kingdom and did not say anything else.”

Fan Qianshi laughed. “Di Fuyi has always been a far-sighted person. Do you think he will dismiss all his servants just to chat with your father freely? How can you believe this!?”

Yin Mingzhu’s pretty face turned a bit red. “My father has never belittled me and will not lie to me!”

The Devil King was a talkative person. He could not keep a secret in his heart, and he always liked talking to his daughter. Therefore, there were few, if any, secrets between them. If some form of an agreement had been reached between the two parties, she was sure that her father would tell her.

Fan Qianshi, on the other hand, found her to be quite ridiculous. “You’re so childish! Your father is the king of a country, after all. He will always consider his kingdom and community first. Once there are matters involving the devil world, it is likely that he will not reveal everything to you. You’d better go back and ask him again about what they have discussed.”

“Alright! However, it is my personal belief that Di Fuyi really wants to help my father.”

Fan Qianshi sneered. “Di Fuyi will only assist influential people around the world. Do you think he will help someone like your father? ”

Yin Mingzhu was stunned and rather dissatisfied by his reply. “What is wrong with my father? His main problem is the regent that stands in his way! Once he gets back his power, he will be a good ruler! You… Don’t you want to help my father? Why…”

Fan Qianshi realized that he had crossed a line, so he gently replied, “I understand what you are saying. However, Di Fuyi may not understand. I am afraid that he may not be truthful to your father. Maybe he is partnering with the regent to take complete control over the kingdom. When you go back, look for your father and keep him away from Di Fuyi. Rest assured, since I promised to assist your father; I will not renege. I am the disciple of the God of Creation, and I will help you to protect your father. No one would dare to challenge me. I will definitely be loyal to your father.”
