The next day, Bo Yang was called to the main hall by the Eternal Night Devil.
When Bo Yang arrived, the Demon King was reading a book. Seeing him arrive, the Demon King said indifferently, "You're here?"
Bo Yang said respectfully, "I'm here. What orders does Master have for this subordinate? "
The Demon King put down his book and snorted. "I heard from my guards that you and Hua Feihua had a good time in the room last night?"
Bo Yang, "…"
Holy shit!
Bo Yang, "No! Hua Feihua only wanted to find out about you from me, because I'm the only one who can enter the barrier to see you. "
The Demon King raised his eyebrows. "Oh, is that so?"
"That's right." Bo Yang was not afraid at all. "I listened to your orders and did not reveal a single word."
"Really?"
"Really."
The Demon King stared at him for a moment, but Bo Yang's expression remained the same. Thus, the Demon King said, "This is a special period, and the army is pressing down on us. It's best if you don't fool around and distract yourself."
Bo Yang, "…"
Bo Yang felt wronged. "Master, I didn't."
"You can leave." The Demon King said calmly. It was unknown if he had heard him or not.
Bo Yang could only dejectedly walk out of the main hall.
In the next few days, the atmosphere in the city became more and more solemn, and more and more people became anxious. Everyone was worried that the Western Sky Demon's army would attack one day. During this period of time, another two people of high status joined the Western Sky Devil.
Only Bo Yang was very calm. He ate and drank as he pleased, and every day, he secretly teased beauties, not daring to let the Demon King find out.
Actually, he also felt that it was a little strange. Why was he worried that the Demon King would be angry if he teased a beauty? Xie Zetian was originally a lecherous person, and it was his nature to be a playboy. It would be strange if he didn't tease a beauty.
However, when he recalled the Demon King's ugly expression when he was caught in the act, and the Demon King's warning not to fool around, Bo Yang felt that it was necessary to keep a low profile.
This continued for about seven days, and everyone gradually realized that something was wrong. The Western Sky Devil currently had overwhelming power, and many people had surrendered to him. Logically speaking, he should have attacked immediately, but he still hadn't attacked.
What was even stranger was that the Eternal Night Devil had locked himself up in the palace and did nothing even though he was injured. Logically speaking, the Eternal Night Devil had been in the Demonic Realm for more than four thousand years, and his influence was spread throughout the Demonic Realm. Why didn't he receive any reinforcements when he was besieged?
Gradually, everyone smelled something unusual.
It wasn't just the Eternal Night Devil who couldn't sit still. According to Hua Feihua's spies, there were different voices in the Western Sky Devil army. According to the current situation, it was best to end the battle quickly. If the army from the border rushed over and surrounded them, they would become turtles in a jar. Therefore, some of the lords in the Western Sky Devil army strongly requested to attack the city.
However, they were all suppressed by the Western Sky Devil.
On the seventh day, the voices of the Western Sky Devil army grew louder and louder. Three of the lords couldn't hold back and began to mobilize a small part of their army to flank them. The other lords also showed signs of following.
The battle was about to start, and there were no more deserters or traitors on the Demon King's side. Everyone was prepared to fight to the death. Under such circumstances, the barrier in front of the main palace was removed, and the Eternal Night Devil walked out in high spirits. There were no signs of injury on his body.
Seeing the Eternal Night Devil come out, Zhong Shuo and Hua Feihua, who were guarding outside the main palace, were pleasantly surprised. Only Bo Yang was very calm. After all, he was the one who knew all the inside information.
"Master, are you alright?" Zhong Shuo was more straightforward and asked directly.
The Eternal Night Devil said, "I was slightly injured before, but I've been focusing on recuperating for the past few days. I've recovered."
Bo Yang looked at his nonchalant face and secretly cursed him for being a liar.
"That's great," Hua Feihua said.
"Let's go out and fight."
The Eternal Night Devil said indifferently and took the lead to float out of the city.
Bo Yang and the others followed closely behind.
Zhong Shuo and Hua Feihua were very nervous. Only Bo Yang was very calm. Of course, he still showed a hint of nervousness on his face. Otherwise, if he didn't pretend at all, it would definitely arouse suspicion. The great Demon King would also think that he wasn't professional enough and couldn't keep the secret.
What happened after that was beyond everyone's expectations. The Eternal Night Devil came out to fight, and the morale was greatly boosted. The Western Sky Demon was also prepared to fight, but they had different opinions and quarreled. The army was a little hasty.
When the close combat was in full swing, the Western Sky Demon suddenly called for a meeting to discuss how to attack the city. But in the middle of the meeting, he killed the Suzerain of the Ten Regions and surrendered with their heads.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Now that the two sides were evenly matched, it was unknown who would win. The Western Sky Demon must have taken the wrong medicine to suddenly kill the Suzerain of the Ten Regions and surrender.
What was even more amazing was that the Eternal Night Devil accepted his surrender, but the Western Sky Demon said that he had sinned too much and wasn't fit to be king. Then, he killed himself …
Killed himself …
Killed himself …
Yes, he slit his own throat and killed himself on the spot.
It was as baffling as a farce!
No one understood the reason behind it. Only Bo Yang knew that all of this was the doing of that high and mighty person.
Not long after, the people outside spread rumors that the Demon King must have done some kind of mysterious spell when he was locked in the main hall. That kind of mysterious spell could turn the Western Sky Demon into a puppet that would completely obey his orders. The rumors became more and more exaggerated, and the Eternal Night Devil in the rumors became an image that possessed mysterious power.
Listening to those rumors, Bo Yang felt that the image of the Demon King was similar to that of a god in the sky, omnipotent. But perhaps this was the goal of the Eternal Night Devil. He wanted his image to be deeply ingrained in people's hearts so that no one would dare to go against him.
The Demon King had killed two birds with one stone. Beautifully done!
Bo Yang, who was involved in this, once again deeply understood that the Demon King wasn't as imaginative as he usually appeared in front of him. He was still an ambitious schemer, decisive, cold, and ruthless. He wouldn't forget to do what he needed to do.
Thinking about this, Bo Yang was a little scared.
Once he faced someone he couldn't control, Bo Yang would subconsciously want to escape. For example, when he faced Lou Jianfeng and Hua Feihua, he would talk as little as possible. When he faced the Eternal Night Devil, he would avoid him like the plague.
Once this matter was over, he wanted to return to the human world. But everything didn't go as he wished.
After the victory of the war, the Demon King wanted to reward him.
In the following actions, the Demon King promoted those who were loyal and useful on the battlefield. Those who performed poorly were demoted, and those who were hesitant were directly kicked out.
There were many people who were kicked out this time. In addition to those who betrayed before, there were many empty positions in the military and government. The territories of the Ten Suzerains had to be guarded. Those territories were relatively far away and were located at the border. The Demon King gave the military power of the border to Zhong Shuo and sent him to station there.
Once he left, the position of the Capital Guards was left empty.
This position was very important. He guarded the safety of the entire Capital and was the leader of the defense of the entire palace. It could be said that it was related to the safety of the Demon King. People who weren't absolutely trusted couldn't take up this position.
Everyone was guessing who this position would be left for.
The Eternal Night Devil didn't announce it on the spot, and Bo Yang didn't ask too much. He wasn't interested in these rewards at all. Right now, he only wanted to return to the human world to see the male lead. Therefore, he was the calmest and coldest person out of everyone.
That night, he didn't need to sleep in the Palace of Eternal Darkness. He directly returned to his own residence.
Bo Yang felt that some things were repetitive. For example, the men and women in his harem were always tirelessly trying to seduce him.
As long as he returned, there would definitely be naked beauties throwing themselves at him. Bo Yang was already a little scared. He often used excuses to not return home at night. However, what was to come would still come. As soon as he returned to his residence, the eyes of those beauties were already red. They insisted on asking him for an explanation.
"Sir, don't you like us anymore?" The beauties stood in a row crying.
Bo Yang instantly felt an incomparable headache. He really admired those ancient emperors, or those people who had a foot in several boats. How did they manage to deal with it? Did they have the energy?
Bo Yang felt mentally and physically exhausted. Even if he had to sleep with beauties every day, he wouldn't be able to sleep with all of them. Wouldn't his body be hollowed out? Would his kidneys be fine?
Previously, when Xie Zetian found excuses to not pamper them, those who climbed his bed didn't complain much when they were chased away. However, as time passed, everyone began to complain in their hearts. This time, it was rare for the harem to unite. They gathered together to ask him for an explanation.
According to Xie Zetian's character, he was dissolute by nature. It was impossible for him to sit by and do nothing. No matter what, he should sleep with them.
Bo Yang had a huge headache.
It wasn't impossible to sleep with them. Bo Yang was also a normal man. He wouldn't be indifferent to beauty.
He was already prepared to find someone who was more pleasing to the eye and had a gentler personality to sleep with. Just as he was worrying about which one to find, he suddenly heard someone outside announcing that the Lord Devil Lord's reward had arrived.
Bo Yang immediately abandoned the group of men and women and ran out to welcome it. His harem was unwilling to give up. They followed him to the front courtyard. There was a huge commotion. It was a spectacular sight.
There were a few guards in armor in the courtyard, carrying a few large boxes.
The leader read out the names of the rewards. It was mostly calligraphy, paintings, gold, silver, and treasures.
The Lord Devil Lord was very generous. He didn't even blink when he rewarded them with such a large sum of money.
Behind the boxes was a palanquin. The palanquin was luxurious. There were tassels hanging from the four corners. The front curtain was embroidered with blooming flowers. It looked like a palanquin for women.
Bo Yang asked curiously: "Who is inside?"
The leader smiled and said: "Come out."
The curtain was lifted and the person in the palanquin walked out. The people standing in the courtyard suddenly felt their eyes light up. What a beautiful woman!
"Daren, this little girl is called Qing He." The beautiful woman walked to Bo Yang's side and gently bent down.
It must be said that Qing He's appearance was definitely first class. When she walked out, she was so beautiful that the row of flowers in the courtyard couldn't be compared to her.
If other people saw this kind of beauty, they would definitely say that the Lord Devil Lord really loved Xie Zetian. He actually gave such a beautiful woman to him. Xie Zetian really had good luck with women.
But Bo Yang felt that things weren't that simple.
"Xiao Ling, why did the Demon King suddenly give me a beauty?"
Xiao Ling: "Maybe he always felt that you were sexually harassing him and felt very annoyed. So he sent you a wife to let you vent your anger?"
Bo Yang: "… When did I sexually harass him?"
"You touched him so many times and you still say that you didn't sexually harass him?"
"I was at most teasing him. How did it become sexually harassing him? Don't you know how to use words? Besides, it's your system's daily mission! "Bo Yang was indignant.
"What's the difference between teasing and sexually harassing him?" Xiao Ling asked back.
Bo Yang: "…"
When Qing He appeared, the row of crying beauties in the backyard who were begging Bo Yang to pamper them immediately shut up. Because no matter if it was appearance or background, none of them could compare to Qing He.
Moreover, Qing He had just arrived. As the host, Xie Zetian would definitely be very interested. Look, Xie Zetian's eyes were straight. (Actually, he was in a daze because he was discussing with Xiao Ling why the Eternal Night Devil suddenly sent a beauty over.)
The people living in the backyard all knew how to read people's expressions. When they saw Qing He's beauty and Xie Zetian's eyes glued to Qing He's body, they knew that Xie Zetian would definitely want to sleep with Qing He that night. Therefore, the group of people admitted defeat and scattered like birds and beasts.
