Inside the palace, Hu Jiu said to Huan Ji angrily, "Lord Huan Ji, Sister Six betrayed us. She's with a mixed eagle!"
Huan Ji was still angry about the little snake, so she ignored Hu Jiu.
Hu Liu came in from outside and walked to Huan Ji. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Lord Huan Ji, it's great that you're fine."
Hu Jiu stared at her and said coldly, "Keep pretending. Keep pretending. When we were in the dungeon, you were so happy when you knew we were caught."
Huan Ji held Hu Liu's hand and said, "I'm sorry."
Hu Liu shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm not sorry at all."
Hu Jiu looked at Huan Ji and then at Hu Liu. She suddenly asked, "Lord Huan Ji, Sister Six, are you hiding something from me?"
Hu Liu glared at her and said, "Shut up and go away. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
…
In Thousand Fox Country, a piece of news from the palace shocked the whole city.
The king of Thousand Fox Country, Bai Xuan, was going to marry the daughter of the Heavenly Lord, the former elder of Meizong Sect, Lord Huan Ji.
Many demon citizens didn't believe it when they heard the news.
The Huan Family was betrayed by Bai Xuan. Huan Ji's father, the Heavenly Lord of Illusions, was missing. Her brother was imprisoned in the dungeon because of Bai Xuan. She and Bai Xuan were mortal enemies. But now, she was going to marry her enemy?
After thinking about it, they didn't find it strange.
Her brother's life was in the hands of others, and she was in the hands of the enemy. What choice did she have?
Many people in Thousand Fox City sympathized with Huan Ji.
But because of Bai Xuan's power, no one dared to say anything.
Thousand Fox Country wasn't big. The news that the king was going to marry an empress soon spread throughout Thousand Fox Country.
Half a month later, their wedding ceremony would be held in the palace.
When the time came, there would be a grand banquet outside the Imperial Palace that would last for three days as the entire nation celebrated together. Many nearby monster races would also be invited to participate in this ceremony. The snake and bear races were in a tense situation with them, so they shouldn't send anyone. But no matter what, the Heavenly Wolf Empire had to send a Monster King with some weight.
In the palace, Bai Xuan sat cross-legged. A page in his hand was glowing faintly.
After an unknown period of time, he slowly opened his eyes and put away the page.
This time, he did not comprehend anything useful from the Heavenly Book. However, since he had already obtained the Heavenly Book, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
He thought about Huan Ji's request and reached out his hand. A black lotus appeared in his palm. He said respectfully to the black lotus, "How are your injuries?"
After an unknown period of time, a hoarse voice came from the black lotus.
"What is it?"
Bai Xuan faced Black Lotus and said even more respectfully, "In half a month, it will be my wedding day. I would like to ask Honored Elder to preside over my wedding."
This time, Bai Xuan did not have to wait for long before the black lotus responded, "I will be there personally."
Bai Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Many thanks, Honorable Elder!"
To have a Seventh Level Elder of Glory Sect officiate his wedding was a great honor indeed. It was also a good opportunity to show those wolf cubs who was the true son of Glory Sect.
At this moment, in a palace, Hu Jiu looked at Huan Ji in confusion and asked, "Lord Huan Ji, are you really going to marry that traitor Bai Xuan?"
Huan Ji asked back, "What else can I do? We are already in his hands. Bai Xuan threatened me that if I don't agree, he will kill you on the first day, Hu Liu on the second day, and Huan Yun on the third day. Do I have a choice?"
Hu Jiu lowered her head in shame and gritted her teeth, "It's all because of our incompetence …"
At this moment, Bai Xuan strode in from outside and said with a smile, "Junior Sister, Honorable Elder has agreed. When we get married, he will preside over our wedding."
Huan Ji said calmly, "You have quite a lot of face."
Bai Xuan smiled, "We are about to get married. My face is your face."
He glanced at Hu Liu and seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Li Mu and said, "Ying Qi, do you want me to help you with the matter between you and Hu Liu?"
Li Mu froze for a moment and then waved his hand, "No need, no need. I'm just playing around. I don't want to marry her."
Bai Xuan looked at him meaningfully and said, "As expected of you."
He was about to leave when Huan Ji suddenly said, "Wait."
Bai Xuan turned around and asked, "Junior Sister, is there anything else?"
Huan Ji looked at Li Mu indifferently and said, "I treat Hu Liu as my sister, but you let your subordinates humiliate her. You are humiliating yourself."
Bai Xuan thought about it and felt that what she said made sense. He turned to Li Mu and said, "Ying Qi, from now on, don't have any ideas about Hu Liu."
Li Mu immediately panicked. "First Elder, this is what you promised me …"
Bai Xuan waved his hand and said, "It's decided. I will compensate you when the time comes. I will give you a few more female demons. But you already have a dozen at home. Are you still not satisfied?"
Li Mu said, "Who would think it's too much? One a day, one a month …"
Bai Xuan couldn't help but say, "How can I have such a shameless demon as you as my subordinate …"
At this moment, Huan Ji continued, "Hu Liu will live with me for a few days. Let him stay and serve Hu Liu. Let him take revenge for the humiliation."
Bai Xuan nodded without hesitation. When he turned to leave, he said, "Ying Qi, you stay."
Li Mu quickly chased after him and said, "First Elder, this …"
Without waiting for him to finish, Bai Xuan interrupted him, "In order to satisfy the Empress, you'll have to suffer a bit these days. They won't go too far. After we're done with these things, I'll let you have a banshee's turn every night for a month …"
Li Mu's expression turned serious as he said solemnly, "For the Empress, this subordinate is willing to climb a mountain of swords and plunge into a sea of fire. This subordinate is willing to give his all …"
After Bai Xuan left, Li Mu walked in again. He frowned at Huan Ji and transmitted his voice, "What do you want now?"
Huan Ji looked at him and transmitted her voice, "My clan will repay kindness and revenge. If I let you go like this, Bai Xuan might be suspicious. This is the only way we can do things."
Li Mu asked back, "Then if I help you take revenge, how will you repay me?"
Huan Ji said calmly, "If you want, the empress of Thousand Fox Country will always be yours."
Hu Jiu looked at the two in a daze. His brain stopped working.
What revenge? What repayment? The empress of Thousand Fox Country will always be yours? Why couldn't he understand a single word?
He was about to ask when Hu Liu glared at him. "Seal your spiritual sense. Don't listen or ask anything!"
Although Hu Jiu was very curious, he still obediently sealed his spiritual sense. From these few words, he already heard a shocking secret. He knew he couldn't keep it a secret, so he might as well not listen.
Seeing that Li Mu didn't speak, Huan Ji said to Hu Liu, "Hu Liu, you can take revenge on him as you wish. Remember to be ruthless. That way, Bai Xuan will believe you more easily."
She reached out and a whip appeared in her hand. She threw it to Hu Liu.
Hu Liu held the whip and looked at Li Mu. Li Mu looked at her. Hu Liu shivered and ran behind Huan Ji. She said in a trembling voice, "Lord Huan Ji, I, I don't dare …"
Although Hu Liu dared to joke around with Li Mu, she knew very well that the person standing in front of her wasn't as gentle as he looked.
This was a person who dared to enter the Yao Nation's hinterland alone and spy beside a Realm Six elite. He didn't fear the threat of a Realm Seven elite and dared to fight against Thousand Fox Country controlled by Bai Xuan alone. He didn't care about the elders of the Sage Sect.
How could she dare to whip such a person?
Huan Ji walked over and took the whip from her hand. She said, "If you don't dare to come, I will!"
She held the whip and stared at Li Mu fiercely. She had already raised her hand, but she couldn't swing it down.
The person standing in front of her wasn't Bai Xuan's eagle demon, but the little snake, which was Li Mu. One of them was once her most trusted subordinate, and the other was a man who had helped her many times. Even now, she didn't know how to face this man.
She was very angry at Li Mu for hiding the truth and the little snake's betrayal. She wanted to whip him hundreds of times to vent her anger. But when she really picked up the whip, she found that she couldn't do it.
Seeing Huan Ji stop there, Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "I'll do it myself."
He waved his hand and the whip in Huan Ji's hand flew out and hovered in the air.
Although Huan Ji wanted to use this opportunity to vent her anger, her words were very reasonable.
Normally, Huan Ji and Hu Liu wouldn't let Eagle Seven go. Bai Xuan also thought so and was prepared to compensate Li Mu after this.
If he didn't suffer any torture, Bai Xuan might be suspicious.
Thinking about this, Li Mu controlled the whip from afar and let it hit his body.
Xiu!
Xiu Xiu!
Pa Pa Pa!
In the room, the sound of the whip cutting through the air and the sound of it hitting flesh could be heard.
Huan Ji and Hu Liu were dumbfounded. How could someone torture themselves?
Li Mu showed no mercy to him. He whipped him again and again. Soon, bloody scars appeared on his face and arms.
Even the clothes on his body were torn to shreds, revealing his body that was covered in wounds.
Seeing Li Mu's exposed body, Huan Ji and Hu Liu couldn't help but exclaim and covered their mouths.
What kind of body was this? There wasn't a single piece of undamaged skin, and it was covered with crisscrossing wounds. In some places, the old wounds overlapped with the new ones, causing blood to gush out continuously. However, he didn't care at all, and continued to lash his own body.
When Li Mu waved the whip from afar again, Huan Ji suddenly reached out and grabbed the whip. She slowly walked in front of Li Mu and touched the wounds on his body. She bit her lips and asked, "You … Why are you doing this? Aren't you afraid of death?"
Li Mu allowed the blood to flow out from his wounds. A figure reclining on the dragon throne appeared in his mind. He smiled and said, "Of course it's for our empress …"
