Xiao Ling praised: "Mister, you're doing very well. You look like a qualified leader."
Bo Yang said: "Thank you for the compliment. Luckily, the Demon World has a clear hierarchy, otherwise I wouldn't be able to handle it."
The reason why he was able to take over the chores was because the subordinates trusted their superiors. Bo Yang's orders were quickly carried out.
Of course, others were willing to listen to him because he had the Eternal Night Devil behind him.
Everyone respected the Demon King, feared him, and obeyed him.
"But Mister is still doing very well. To be able to manage such a large army, it won't be difficult for you to manage a company in the future." Xiao Ling thought a lot.
Bo Yang only laughed when he heard this. "We'll see."
To be honest, he wasn't interested in managing a company. He always felt that the company belonged to his older brother. He only needed to be an idle person.
He buried himself in government affairs. With him in charge, everything was normal.
On the night of the third day, Bo Yang finished taking care of the day's affairs and was about to return to his room to rest when the Eternal Night Devil appeared.
For the past two days, Bo Yang helped the Eternal Night Devil with his daily affairs. The Demon King stayed in the back of the palace to recuperate. He didn't hide the fact that his body was in a bad condition from Bo Yang. Bo Yang helped him hide the news and did his best to help him deal with the people outside, allowing him to focus on recovering his body.
Because he had used the Demon Lord, his heart was filled with guilt, so he worked especially hard.
However, in the eyes of some people, this behavior was interpreted differently.
"Master, you've come out of seclusion?" Bo Yang was surprised and happy. He was really happy. Now that the Demon King had come out, he didn't need to care about the government affairs that made his head ache. It wasn't easy to be the Demon King. Although it would feel good to have a centralized rule, there would also be a lot of government affairs. People like him who were afraid of trouble would politely decline.
"Yes." The Demon King nodded. He approached him and looked at the military report on the table.
His complexion was much better. His skin was fair and rosy, and his aura was very powerful.
The army remained in the West. Bo Yang told the outside world that he was reorganizing the army and pacifying the powers in the West. In reality, he was waiting for the Demon King to recover.
From the looks of it, the Demon King had truly recovered.
Bo Yang saw that he was interested in the military report and quickly told him about the day's government affairs. The Demon King nodded from time to time.
After Bo Yang finished talking about the government affairs for the day, the Demon King finally said a single word.
Bo Yang: "…"
Alright, the Demon King was a man of few words. But I'm done talking. Shouldn't you let me go?
Bo Yang had not slept much these few days because he had been dealing with government affairs. He really wanted to go back and rest early. Just as he was thinking about how to tactfully say goodbye, the Demon King suddenly said, "You rushed over here just to see me, right?"
"Ah?" Bo Yang did not react in time.
The Demon King glanced at him. His eyes were very deep. When he glanced at him, his long eyelashes trembled. It made people's hearts beat faster.
Bo Yang's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly looked away.
"I've thought a lot these few days. You rushed back to the Demon Realm from the Human Realm because of me, right?" The Demon King's voice was very pleasant to hear. It carried a strong sense of certainty and confidence.
Bo Yang: "…"
Bo Yang finally understood what he was saying. But it was because he understood that he was a bit stunned.
What was the Demon King thinking again?
What did he mean by 'because of him'?
However, his hesitation was seen by the person in front of him. It proved the Demon King's thoughts.
Sighing softly, the Lord Devil Lord said, "Didn't I tell you not to like me? Once you heard that I went to attack the Western Sky Demons, you rushed back. Xie Zetian, you didn't keep your word. "
Bo Yang: "…"
Wait, it's not what you think!
Bo Yang recalled the day when the Demon King asked him why he came back. Bo Yang's answer was not very good. After that, the Demon King changed the topic. Bo Yang felt that the matter was already over. He did not expect the Demon King to keep it in his heart and ponder over it.
He did not know what reason he had pondered over.
No matter what he pondered over, Bo Yang did not want to know. He hurriedly denied, "Master, it's not like that. The reason I rushed back was to report about the Black Clouds Sect."
"Lou Jianfeng has already told me about the Black Clouds Sect. Why would you need to rush back from the Human Realm and specially come to the Western Sky Demon Realm to tell me about it?"
Rushing back to report? Who was he trying to fool?
This little thing did not even know how to find an excuse.
The Demon King thought worriedly, So Xie Zetian was not fooling around. He really liked me.
Bo Yang: "…"
"The reason you rushed back was probably because you heard some rumors. You knew that the Western Sky Demons had obtained a treasure and were fearless. You also knew that I was suffering from Qi Deviation and was injured. You were afraid that something would happen to me, right?"
The Eternal Night Devil's voice was very certain.
Bo Yang: "…"
He did not know how to answer. Yes, the matter about the Black Clouds Sect was not urgent. According to Xie Zetian's character, he would not have rushed back from the Human Realm to inform the Eternal Night Devil. But he had rushed back, so he had to give a suitable reason.
Of course, he could not say that it was to save the male lead.
Now, before he could think of a reason, the Eternal Night Devil had already helped him think of one — it was because of love.
Bo Yang was in a mess. He had almost forgotten that the Eternal Night Devil had misunderstood that he liked him.
According to the Eternal Night Devil's logic, Xie Zetian was upset when he was rejected and asked to go to the Human Realm to do a mission. However, his heart was still tied to the Eternal Night Devil. When he heard that he was going to attack the Western Sky Demons, he rushed back worriedly. Not only did he help to hide the Demon King's physical condition, he also did his best to help him with the government affairs.
If this was not love, then what was it?
There was nothing wrong with this logic!
But Bo Yang did not pay attention to the matters of the Demon Realm. He did not know that the Eternal Night Devil was attacking the Western Sky Demons, nor did he know that the Western Sky Demons had a treasure.
But at this moment, Bo Yang could only remain silent.
He realized that the Lord Devil Lord, who was usually aloof and cold, actually had an inexplicable confidence. Moreover, he was very imaginative.
This contrast made Bo Yang feel quite surprised.
His silence made the Eternal Night Devil even more certain of his own thoughts. He sighed again. "Xie Zetian, you have to learn to control your feelings. There are some people that you will never be able to be with in your lifetime."
Bo Yang's dead fish eyes were speechless.
No, I have never wanted to be with you.
The Demon King's words were profound as he analyzed again. "I know that you like men. An outstanding man like me will naturally like me if you stay by my side for a long time. But my goal is to unify the Human Realm and the Demon Realm and ascend to the Upper Realm. Love and affection will only drag down my plan. Do you understand?"
Bo Yang's dead fish eyes were still speechless.
Great Demon King, where did you get the confidence to think that I will fall in love with you after staying by your side for a long time?
Bo Yang cursed wildly in his heart, but he still maintained a shocked expression on his face.
What could he say? He could not deny it.
If he said, "Lord Devil Lord, I came all the way back to save another person, wouldn't I be beaten to death on the spot?"
Bo Yang endured it and said sullenly, "Master, the reason why I came back was because of my loyalty. I have no other intentions."
Great Demon King, I really did not fall in love with you.
Please wake up!
