Chapter 1173 - The Time Has Come

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Great Wei Kingdom had brought countless jewelry, beautiful women, and the eldest princess of the Great Wei Kingdom to the Great Jin Kingdom to negotiate peace.

Actually, it was no longer a negotiation. It was a peace negotiation. It was a surrender.

The Ministry of Rites had a lot of things to do. However, Zhai Yue was not the real Zhai Yue. It was impossible for them to spend time on those boring things.

Furthermore, Fan Xing had just recovered from her injuries recently, so it was a time of boredom. Naturally, Zhai Yue spent the most time with Fan Xing.

As usual, Fez stayed in her small courtyard. Even if Zhai Yue had discovered that Fez had appeared again, he was not in a hurry to attack her. It was not that Zhai Yue was confident, but that Zhai Yue knew... The condition for taking out the demon core was that Fan Xing had to be willing.

How could Fan Xing voluntarily take out her demon core for Fez? Even if she wanted it, Fan Xing might not take it out. Fan Xing was not stupid, and she had been waiting for revenge. There was no need for him to say how useful the demon core was to Fan Xing. Fan Xing would have to be stupid.

Of course, it was even more impossible to use magic or demonic spells on Fan Xing to make her confused or possess her.

The tricks that Ghost Pond Qilin did before he died were not something that ordinary demons and devils could deal with. Even he could not do it, let alone them?

Therefore, unless Fan Xing really volunteered, no one would be able to get it.

“Can I go that day?”

“Of course, there’s still a good show that you want to see the most.”

“Are you saying that the Wen family will be in trouble?”

“Yes, the relationship between the Wen family and Great Wei is much more complicated than you and I know.”

......

“What do you mean?”

“The late wife of Wen Zhongguo is the youngest daughter of the defender-general of Great Qi. Why do you think Wen Zhongguo and Wen Tian were removed after only staying on the battlefield for a year? It’s because of this reason.”

“Isn’t the Qi Kingdom already destroyed?”

“The destruction of the Qi Kingdom doesn’t mean that all the people of the Qi Kingdom are dead. Moreover, Great Wei originally wanted to gather troops to deal with Great Jin, so not only did they take in all the troops before they arrived at the Great Qi Kingdom, but the defender-general of the Qi Kingdom and his descendants all serve Great Wei.”

“What does this mean?”

“Little fool, this doesn’t mean anything. We just want to let the people of the Wen family have a taste of being wronged. It’s not satisfying to be killed just like that. Remember, in order to take revenge, the most satisfying way is to let those enemies have a taste of all your suffering. That’s what makes it interesting, do you understand?”

“Oh, I understand. You want to frame the Wen family for colluding with the enemy and betraying the country, right?”

“Little thing, remember to use your brain more.”

While the two of them were scheming, her guests also came to Fez’s room at the other end.

The Ghost King, Mo Lu, the Beast King, and her, the Demon Princess, were all sitting in the room. Of course, the Six Realms also had the Divine Realm, the Immortal Realm, and the Human Realm. The Human Realm was definitely excluded from this plan, the Divine Realm and the Immortal Realm also sent people down, but not now. They were the last trump cards to fight Zhai Yue.

This ten-thousand-year lightning tribulation was strange. It even affected the Immortal Realm and the Divine Realm. People from every realm wanted to get the demonic core and put it on their boundary tablets. That way, they could treat the entire race. There wasn’t only one person who could use it. This was also the reason why the energy of the demonic core was so terrifying and huge.

“Fez, you’re really ruthless. You can even act against your own lover.”

“What? Beast King, you don’t want the demonic core anymore? If you want it, then don’t say too much. Let’s not make it ugly first. When we jointly take out the demonic core, no one is allowed to stab each other in the back. Otherwise, don’t blame the other Four Realms for being ruthless.”

“Don’t worry, Fez. We all know that once the demonic core is taken out, our few realms will rely on our own abilities. However, before that, the most important thing is to make that half-demon hand over the demonic core voluntarily. This has to be planned properly. Also, Fez, are you sure that half-demon will really fall for it?”

The Ghost King’s body was emitting a cold air. Fez disliked him the most, but now they had to work together. Hearing him say this, she still answered:

“That’s half-demon, half-human. Some of her is human, and humans are the most superficial animals. Love is the greatest weakness of humans, understand? So, as long as Zhai Yue is in our hands, we’re not afraid that half-demon won’t hand over her demonic core.”

“Alright, I’ll trust you, Fez. Let’s make our own preparations. We’ll move out tonight. As for the Yin Tai Tower, Zhai Yue is wary for the half-demon, so the Minister of Rites chose this Glazed Hall as the furthest place from the Yin Tai Tower. Even if there are any problems, we’ll be able to leave quickly.”

“Alright, everyone make your own preparations.”

..

“I have to wear red tonight?”

“Didn’t you say that you don’t like being a side consort? The main consorts all wear red.”

“But I don’t like red. Moreover, you don’t even wear red. I’m not even worthy to stand together with you.”

Fan Xing looked at the red traditional dress that materialized on her body and frowned in disdain.

“Besides, I told you before, you can’t have another woman. I’m the only one you can have.”

“Hahaha, okay, I’ll do as you say.”

Zhai Yue would never compete with Fan Xing in this aspect. She always did as she pleased.

“What color do you want to wear?”

“White, just like the clothes you’re wearing. It’s ethereal and beautiful!”

“Okay, then white it is.”

Zhai Yue personally transformed Fan Xing. She wore a white, wide-embroidered dress with a silver hem and a thread of light muslin floating around her body. She looked extremely immortal.

Her long black hair was still tied up by a white jade hairpin. It was simple, but it carried a hint of nobility and elegance.

“Remember, speak less, watch more, and think more, especially when it comes to the Wen family. You have to have the mentality of watching a good show tonight. If you make a move first, the good show might be over.”

“Yes, I know. You’ve said it many times. I’ll remember it all. Let’s go.”

The two of them walked out of the courtyard wearing the same clothes. As soon as they appeared, they saw that Fez seemed to have a premonition. She was also dressed in light-colored clothes. Zhai Yue glanced at her and pointed with his finger. Her clothes changed into a pink gown.

Fez’s expression changed. She was not even allowed to wear the same clothes as them. This d*mn Zhai Yue, was he really faking? Did he know that his feelings for that half-demon were no longer as simple as wanting the demonic core?

However, Fez couldn’t care less at the moment. She could only swallow her anger and look at the two of them before standing obediently behind them.

When Fan Xing saw Zhai Yue’s actions, she was very happy. She couldn’t maintain any immortal aura anymore. She hugged Zhai Yue’s arm and shook it happily. Fortunately, she knew that they were outside and couldn’t kiss him just because she was on top of him. Otherwise, she would have already fallen in love with him.

“Let’s go, into the palace!”
