Chapter 639 - State Teacher’s Beating (2)
“But Sire, the person who summoned me really was you. I don’t know why you are saying this right now but have you.…”
Daemonized?
Note: I just made up the word because there’s no actual direct translation for demon madness in English.
Of course, the last bit there could never be said aloud even if both elders were to be given a second life.
“I remember it now Brother!” Di Xiao Wan’s face revealed a flicker of light in those eyes: “About twenty days ago Sister-in-law also asked me something else. She was wondering if its possible for someone to forge one’s scent in the Demon Realm. Of course, I told her what I knew and that its impossible to do that. It can’t be, she overheard the conversation!”
Like a knife, Di Cang’s cold sweeping glare in the next moment instantly shuts the girl up, forcing the princess to shiver in nervous unease.
Did I say something wrong?
“No it can’t be, that couldn’t have been His Majesty!” Fire Plume’s voice sounded frantic: “Sire have left the palace for over a month. Whoever it was twenty days ago couldn’t have been His Majesty! This is all my fault. If I had returned as instructed and passed on the message in person then none of this would’ve happened!”
The second elder now showed a look of death. Due to the intense fear he was feeling inside, the senior could hardly control his muscles and kept convulsing like a dying animal.
“First Elder, go investigate this immediately, I want to know who is impersonating me and how he is managing such a feat!” Di Cang felt like he’s being brutally stabbed by a knife right now, leaving his heart all bloodied and mashed up in pain.
If… Yan Yan did hear those lies then what would she think about me? It must’ve been utterly disheartening….
As long as the picture of Bai Yan’s face being in despair continued to surface with his head then Di Cang would continue to ache inside. The condition grew so bad that this man could hardly breath.
“Sire, I seem to remember something,” the second elder raises a point suddenly. “At the time, you… no, the fake mentioned the name of a man called Chu Yi Feng from the human world. Can this be related to that person?”
Whether or not this matter has any relationship to Chu Yi Feng couldn’t be proven, however, there was one individual who knew exactly who the man was and why it couldn’t be.
Dashing over to Qing Xue, Di Xiao Wan shoot fire from her eyes: “Speak now you bitch! Who is the one who impersonated my brother! If you don’t tell me then I will make it so you wish you were dead!”
It was hard enough for Brother to finally win over Bai Yan, now its all ruined because of these bastards! Whether it be Qing Xue, Fire Plume or Second Elder, I won’t let any of them off!
Under that snapping roar, the snake demoness could no longer contain he fear in her eyes. Then out of misdirected hope, this stupid woman actually had the audacity to turn to Di Cang for help. However, what welcomed this foolish being was an even more frightening glare that instantly shuts her down into the form of a desperate attempt at fainting.
PAH!
Not to be fooled, the demon princess didn’t hold back at all and made a loud smacking sound from that slap. Screaming like a ferocious animal: “Quit acting dead! If you don’t tell the truth this instant then I will poke holes into that body of yours before pouring a bucket full of blood-sucking grasshoppers on the wound. I will relish as you watch yourself be turned into a dry husk…”
The very thought of that vicious scene was more than enough to break the act. Hurrying to plead for mercy with those lies, the snake bangs her head repeatedly: “I… I am really innocent. I only heard that name from the Queen’s mouth, you must believe me Princess.”
