Chapter 462: Daughter Requests Imperial Father to Grant a Marriage
by AshPurgatory2025Bringing the Sixth Princess and Ninth Princess of the Demon Race World to the Myriad Laws World was something Lin Xun had never even thought about.
Moreover, in Lin Xun’s view, the Ninth Princess and Sixth Princess of the Demon Race World were completely She Qiqi’s weaknesses.
That is to say, She Qiqi wanted to hand her weaknesses completely over to his hands?
Could it be that She Qiqi was actually planning something.
And now, her Sixth Sister and Ninth Sister being in the Demon Race World completely hindered She Qiqi’s performance.
So She Qiqi chose to trust him completely.
Or maybe, She Qiqi was blurring his vision and wanted to do something to him again?
“I promise you.”
Lin Xun looked directly into She Qiqi’s eyes and spoke slowly.
“The day I leave the Demon Race World, I will take your Sixth Sister and Ninth Sister all to the Myriad Laws World.”
“Mhm, good. Since that’s the case, then I’ll trouble you.”
She Qiqi’s eyes curved into a smile, as if the stone in her heart had truly been laid down.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll use them and then threaten you to do something?”
Lin Xun asked. He felt that She Qiqi wouldn’t make such a reckless move.
“Since it’s a decision I’ve made, it means I trust you completely, otherwise I wouldn’t entrust them to you.
And I know, even if I were to endanger your bottom line, you wouldn’t do anything to them.
I know very well that you won’t harm innocent people.
Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.
This is one of the things I want you to do. Then, in a few days, you can go wherever you want.
By the way, are you going to Xuanfeng City?”
“What kind of place is that?”
“The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Chu Yaoyao is there.
Chu Yaoyao’s power is growing larger and larger, and she has already completely occupied Xuanfeng City.
I believe that at tomorrow’s morning court, they will definitely bring it up, and then those brothers of mine will request to go on an expedition against her.”
She Qiqi said nonchalantly.
“Are you sure your Imperial Father won’t let you go?” Lin Xun asked.
She Qiqi smiled:
“How could I possibly go? That Imperial Father of mine is guarding against me very strictly. At that time, it’s estimated that the Crown Prince plus two other princes will go together.
If nothing unexpected happens, when you rush over there, you can even play the hero saving the beauty.
That Chu Yaoyao might even offer herself in marriage.
How about it? Don’t you want to go take a look?”
She Qiqi looked at him with a playful smile, as if she were tempting Lin Xun with something.
“Do you have a map?”
Lin Xun asked.
“Of course.” She Qiqi took out a map from her bosom, as if she had prepared it in advance.
Lin Xun wasn’t polite at all and took the map: “I’ll leave tomorrow.”
“That won’t do. There are several banquets coming up that you need to accompany me to.
If you just leave now, what will I do?”
Lin Xun glanced at She Qiqi: “Do you want me to pretend to be your husband again?”
“You could say that.”
She Qiqi smiled.
“But, if you really want to be my husband, it’s not actually impossible.
How about it? Want to be my husband? You can have me tonight.”
“There’s no need for that.”
Lin Xun shook his head. He could never truly feel at ease with She Qiqi.
As for Lin Xun’s refusal, She Qiqi didn’t take it to heart at all.
“Remember to follow me to court tomorrow morning…”
She Qiqi walked towards the courtyard with her hands behind her back.
“Tomorrow, I also need to introduce you to others.
It just so happens that I can also let you see what this so-called Demon Race World really looks like.”
Lin Xun looked at the girl’s departing figure.
Lin Xun didn’t know if it was his illusion.
He always felt that She Qiqi seemed to have an extraordinary loathing for the Demon Race World.
Or rather, She Qiqi’s hatred for the Demon Race World had reached its peak.
Lin Xun felt that something must have happened for She Qiqi to become the way she was now.
However, She Qiqi had never talked about her past.
And Lin Xun felt that even if he asked, She Qiqi would only laugh it off and wouldn’t talk about things from the past.
If her Sixth Sister and Ninth Sister were her only concerns.
Now she has handed her only concerns over to me, yet she has never spoken of her past… Lin Xun truly felt that he would never be able to see through this woman in his lifetime.
Of course, he didn’t need to see through her in his lifetime.
The next morning, She Qiqi personally woke Lin Xun up.
Then she chose a set of clothes for Lin Xun.
“I think I can just wear the same set of clothes I wore yesterday.”
Looking at this extremely luxurious set of clothes, Lin Xun felt that wearing them would definitely be quite awkward.
“That won’t do.”
She Qiqi refused.
“Yesterday, when we went to see my Sixth Sister and Ninth Sister, it was naturally fine to wear something simple and natural.
But soon you will be walking into the imperial court; you can’t wear something so approachable anymore.”
Lin Xun: “…”
She Qiqi taking him to the court of the Ten Thousand Demon Country already felt very casual.
And then changing into a set of rich clothes, he felt like someone living off a woman.
And for some reason, Lin Xun always felt that She Qiqi had a desire to make him try various outfits and keep dressing him up, as if she were treating him like a toy.
But in the end, Lin Xun still didn’t refuse.
Lin Xun had promised She Qiqi.
As long as it wasn’t She Qiqi wanting him to do something against his conscience, he would naturally agree to these small requests.
And to be honest, Lin Xun was also quite curious about what the court of the Demon Race World would look like.
What kind of differences would there be compared to the dynasties of the Myriad Laws World?
Following She Qiqi into the court,
Lin Xun received the attention of the civil and military officials.
These officials all looked at Lin Xun with eyes that seemed to say they were seeing something they hadn’t seen in ages.
After all, this was the first time She Qiqi had brought a man here.
And seeing She Qiqi so close to this man, they felt it was even more unbelievable.
As for Lin Xun, he remained calm and composed.
Anyway, he would be returning to the Myriad Laws World in a few months, so let them misunderstand however they want.
Could news from the Demon Race World even reach the Myriad Laws World?
With the arrival of the civil and military officials, next came She Qiqi’s several brothers.
Seeing such a human standing calmly and composedly by She Qiqi’s side in the court.
Even the distance between them was less than half a fist, their shoulders almost touching.
They were all stunned for a moment.
They even suspected for a time that they had seen wrongly.
How could this be possible? How could there be a man so close to their Seventh Sister?
And all of this was naturally seen by Lin Xun.
To be honest, Lin Xun actually felt somewhat puzzled.
Lin Xun could see that everyone was extremely interested in him.
But not a single person came forward to test him.
He knew that She Qiqi’s reputation in the court was very formidable, and no one dared to cross her.
But Lin Xun never imagined.
He hadn’t expected She Qiqi to be feared and revered to such an extent?
He felt like he was air, but also not like air.
It was more like, which man would dare to approach her? Then that man must be a once-in-ten-thousand-years tough guy.
“Court is in session…”
With a sharp cry from the eunuch… everyone withdrew their gaze from Lin Xun and stood quietly in their positions.
In the next moment, an incredibly powerful Demonic Qi spread out.
Lin Xun looked up.
The Demon Emperor walked out and sat on the imperial throne.
And the Crown Prince, who followed the Demon Emperor out second, stood beside the imperial throne.
The moment the Demon Emperor and the Crown Prince swept their gaze down at the ministers.
Their gazes were also similarly drawn to Lin Xun.
Even Lin Xun could hear the subconscious “mhm” from the Demon Emperor and the Crown Prince… And She Qiqi noticed that the gazes of the Demon Emperor and the Crown Prince were constantly on Lin Xun, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Then, She Qiqi’s small hand quietly hooked Lin Xun’s pinky finger.
Just like a young couple flirting secretly during a meeting.
And this gentle hook was naturally also seen by the Demon Emperor and the Crown Prince.
They became even more puzzled, constantly guessing in their minds what the identity of this man could be.
“If you have matters to report, speak; otherwise, the court is adjourned.”
Finally, the Crown Prince, who was the first to regain his senses, stepped forward and shouted to the ministers.
“This humble official has a matter to report.”
A minister stepped forward and subconsciously glanced at Lin Xun.
Lin Xun felt as if he were currently the world’s number one beauty, standing in the middle of a group of single men.
No matter who it was, they had to take a look at him.
But the number one beauty of the Demon Race World was clearly She Qiqi by his side.
“Speak,” the Demon Emperor’s majestic voice echoed through the palace.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, the remnant of the previous Dynasty, Chu Yaoyao, has gathered an army of four hundred thousand in Xuanfeng City.
In the previous battles against Chu Yaoyao, our Ten Thousand Demon Country lost nine out of nine battles. At this time, Chu Yaoyao’s momentum is becoming more and more powerful.
This official believes that Chu Yaoyao must be suppressed as soon as possible!
Otherwise, once Chu Yaoyao’s power increases again, her morale will reach an unstoppable level, which will definitely be a great trouble for our Ten Thousand Demon Country.”
“Mhm, the beloved official makes sense.”
The Demon Emperor nodded.
“Then, since that’s the case, is there anyone who wants to go on an expedition against Chu Yaoyao?”
“Imperial Father, your son is willing to share Imperial Father’s worries.”
As soon as the Demon Emperor finished speaking, the Second Prince stepped out.
“There’s no need to trouble Second Brother. As long as Imperial Father gives your son three hundred thousand soldiers, your son can capture that Chu Yaoyao and bring her back to the capital within four months.”
“Three hundred thousand? Reporting to Imperial Father, your son only needs two hundred thousand.”
The Fourth Prince stepped forward and said.
For them, they naturally knew about the rebel army led by Chu Yaoyao.
They definitely possessed a lot of intelligence.
And in their intelligence, it was definitely written that Chu Yaoyao’s power had not yet matured.
Before it matured, crush it!
This was definitely not a difficult task.
Moreover, they could also gain a lot of prestige and military merit.
The Demon Emperor looked at several of his sons, then laughed out loud:
“Hahaha… Good… With you sharing my worries, what kind of waves can that Chu Yaoyao stir up?
Crown Prince, what do you think about these brothers of yours?”
“Reporting to Imperial Father.”
Beside the Demon Emperor, the Crown Prince bowed.
“If Imperial Father permits, your son is willing to be the commander-in-chief. Second Brother and Third Brother can be your son’s deputy generals. Within three months, Chu Yaoyao will surely be captured and brought back to the palace.”
“Good, since you’ve all said so, then I will give you a total of four hundred thousand troops. Within three months, I want to see that Chu Yaoyao, and remember, capture her alive!”
“Yes!” everyone responded in unison.
“…”
Lin Xun listened to the conversation between these princes of the Demon Emperor.
How should he put it?
Perhaps it’s true that whether it’s the Human Race or the Yao Race, as long as it involves a struggle for power.
Then all kinds of internal strife and hidden arrows are basically the same.
These several princes were clearly fighting for merit, and the Crown Prince didn’t want to give this merit to several of his younger brothers.
As for the Demon Emperor, this made Lin Xun shake his head even more.
This Demon Emperor seemed to want to support his own Crown Prince, but then again, he also seemed to not want the Crown Prince’s prestige and power to expand too much.
So he chose to let his two younger brothers check and balance each other.
Furthermore, from the rumors, one could also hear that She Qiqi caused the Demon Emperor a lot of headaches, and might even reach a state almost like forcing a coup.
Yet, this Demon Emperor didn’t fully support his Crown Prince to contend with She Qiqi, and even at this time, he wanted two other princes to check and balance the Crown Prince?
This made Lin Xun a bit confused.
Could it be that this Demon Emperor really felt that as long as he was still alive, it was impossible for She Qiqi to usurp the throne?
Did this Demon Emperor really not understand his daughter that much?
Lin Xun subconsciously glanced at She Qiqi beside him.
At this time, She Qiqi was also looking at Lin Xun.
Their eyes met.
She Qiqi’s long eyelashes blinked gently.
As if saying, “Actually, I know what you’re thinking. You’re right, the court of the Ten Thousand Demon Country and the court of your Human Race are basically no different.”
And while Lin Xun and She Qiqi were exchanging glances, one minister after another reported various matters to the Demon Emperor.
But while other ministers were speaking, the attention of the other ministers was entirely on Lin Xun and She Qiqi.
Looking at the two who were exchanging glances.
Even in their sight, there was a sweet feeling permeating the air.
For a moment, they felt that this world was a bit crazy.
“Are there any other matters to report?”
Half an hour later, the Demon Emperor scanned the ministers and spoke slowly.
Seeing that the ministers remained silent, although the Demon Emperor was extremely curious about Lin Xun by She Qiqi’s side, he didn’t ask a single extra question.
“If there are none, then…”
“Reporting to Imperial Father, your daughter has a matter to report.”
And just at this moment, She Qiqi stepped forward.
Hearing She Qiqi speak, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, was she going to introduce the man beside her?
“Imperial Father…”
The girl stepped forward and spoke slowly.
“Your daughter has a request.”
“Oh? Speak.”
“Your daughter requests Imperial Father to grant a marriage…”
