When Bai Yang arrived in this world, his main goal was to complete his mission and return to the real world. He’d already come this far; he couldn’t give up now.
After he’d made his decision, Bai Yang said to the Demon King, “Your Highness, there’s something I haven’t told you.”
The Demon King had been waiting excitedly for him to say something. When he heard what he said, he was somewhat taken aback. He put away the map and said, “What is it?”
“On previous visits to the Mortal Realm, I learned some information. There is apparently a Boundary Stone in an extremely cold northern place called Tian Shan, but I had no way of confirming it, so I never said anything. Your Highness, please forgive me,” Bai Yang said sincerely as he suddenly knelt down on one knee.
Now that he would have to inevitably thwart the Demon King’s plan, he wanted to make it up to him a little. In any case, he didn’t care about saving the Mortal Realm. He only wanted the male lead to live, and for himself to survive. Therefore, in order to help the Demon King achieve his goal, he told him the location of one of the Boundary Stones.
The Demon King immediately helped him up and said, frowning, “From now on, you don’t have to kneel before me.”
Bai Yang looked up.
The Demon King put a hand on his shoulder and lightly patted his face. With a smile, he said, “You are the partner I chose. You are me and I am you. We rule this world together. Our status is the same.”
Bai Yang: “….”
Bai Yang was speechless.
For a villain who never went to elementary school and had a feudal way of thinking to say such a thing must mean he really loves Bai Yang.
Thinking about what he was about to do, Bai Yang felt very sad.
“Northern Tian Shan….” The Demon King turned around and took out the map, looking for the place Bai Yang had mentioned. He quickly found it in a mountain range and pointed to it. “It’s here.”
He paused and then said, somewhat excitedly, “There are three Boundary Stones. One is already destroyed, and I couldn’t find any information on the other two. I didn’t expect you to have found anything about them.”
He paced around the room impatiently. “If it’s true, then success is just around the corner! Since I’m in the Mortal Realm, I could personally go and have a look….”
Bai Yang had expected him to have this kind of response. The Demon King’s goal was to break the barrier and attack the Mortal Realm. If he could tell him information on the barrier’s three border pillars, he would definitely be interested.
Bai Yang gave a small smile. “It would be good for Your Highness to go and take a look.”
The Demon King hesitated. “But….”
Bai Yang knew why he hesitated and said consolingly, “Your business is important. We can sightsee any time. Moreover, if Your Highness achieves his goal, then this world will be ours. Why worry about not being able to have fun?”
His words caused the Demon King’s expression to change slightly. He didn’t expect Xie Zetian to be so sensible and thoughtful. He was so moved that he didn’t know what to do.
Now that he thought about it, Xie Zetian had done him a great service by not only telling him information about the border pillar, but also by going so far as to give up sightseeing so he could take care of matters. He really was very magnanimous. So cute!
He was touched. Xie Zetian was looking more and more delicious, and the Demon King felt his body stir.
Bai Yang saw his arousal and continued to coax him. “Your Highness, there’s no time to lose. Maybe we should go over and have a look in case the border pillar really is therek2026;.”
The Demon King forced away his urges and nodded, saying, “You’re right. Very well, we’ll leave immediately….”
“Your Highness,” Bai Yang said. “This time I can’t accompany you.”
“Why not?” The Demon King frowned.
Bai Yang swallowed and said calmly, “At that time, I went in and out of the Demon Realm several times. They already know my aura. I’m afraid my presence would reveal our location. Also, I don’t feel so good. I was thinking of staying here to recuperate.”
“You’re not feeling well?” The Demon King was immediately worried. “What’s wrong?”
“I just feel a bit tired. I don’t really want to move,” Bai Yang said, covering his forehead. “If the border pillar is in that kind of place, there will definitely be experts guarding it. These days, I don’t want to kill anyone, so I won’t go this time….”
He saw that the Demon King was still hesitating and said, “Don’t worry, Your Highness. I’ll wait for you here. I’ll wait for you to come back triumphantly after destroying the border pillar. When we’re together again, we will follow your plan and go sightseeing, alright?”
The Demon King was silent.
Bai Yang saw, unexpectedly, that he still wasn’t convinced and clenched his teeth. He suddenly moved closer to the Demon King and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then he tugged on the other’s collar and said in a soft tone, “Alright~?”
After he said it, his whole body broke out in gooseb.u.mps.
The Demon King was motionless. His ears started to slowly redden starting from the tip, and he blushed.
Bai Yang winked and said, “Your Highness, I beg of you, promise me, okay?”
“Ugh…,” Xiao Ling gagged in his mind.
Bai Yang endured his own disgust and continued to act cute.
The Demon King finally failed to resist his attack and retreated. “Fine. I promise.”
By acting cute and spoiled, he finally tricked the Demon King. Bai Yang didn’t even have time to let out a sigh of relief before the Demon King grabbed him and dragged him onto the bed.
“Your Highness?” Bai Yang cried out in alarm.
“I can’t hold back anymore.” The Demon King’s voice was low and hoa.r.s.e, and he breathed heavily. He tore off the clothes that Bai Yang had just put on. Then he roughly grabbed Bai Yang’s waist and thrust in.
“You- your Highness!” Bai Yang gasped in alarm.
This time, he was done right into the next morning.
Bai Yang felt guilty enough that he wouldn’t deny the Demon King anything. On the contrary, he would do his best to accommodate him, to cater to him, and drive him mad with love.
“You are really pa.s.sionate today!” the Demon King gasped, going even harder. “I really don’t want to go….”
Bai Yang almost reached his climax, but when he heard those words, he almost went soft again.
“No! You have to go… ah!” With a cry, they both reached their peak.
The Demon King kept kissing his face, lips, and neck. He seemed like he really wanted to go another round.
Bai Yang immediately pushed him away. “Your Highness, don’t delay your business.”
As he spoke, he pulled the quilt over his marked body.
The Demon King tugged on the quilt twice but couldn’t pull it down. Having no other choice, he reluctantly climbed off the bed. “I’ll help you bathe.”
Bai Yang was eager for him to leave quickly. He said, “Don’t worry about it. I will do it. You go first.”
“No.” The Demon King put on his clothes and left the room. He then had a servant carry in a bucket of hot water. He insisted on cleaning Bai Yang even as Bai Yang kept urging him to leave the inn.
As soon as he was sure that the Demon King had left, Bai Yang got up and got dressed. He then teleported in the direction of Fenghuang City.
The two of them were this world’s most powerful beings. Their cultivation was high and so when they used teleportation, they could go at lightning speed.
He had to leave right after sharing a warm moment with his lover. The Demon King’s heart was full of tenderness, and he missed Bai Yang a lot. He sent some of his forces towards Tian Shan. When they were resting about halfway, he took out the Mermaid’s Pearl and poured his demonic magic into it, wanting to see his adorable lover.
He thought his beloved would still be sleeping at the inn. He didn’t expect that when he activated the Mermaid’s Pearl, he’d see Bai Yang in an unfamiliar area. He appeared to be heading somewhere in a hurry.
The Demon King was a bit suspicious. Where was Zetian going?
He wanted to keep watching when a man at his side in black robes said, “Your Highness, according to the tip-off, there is a barrier around Tian Shan. I’m afraid we’ll have a hard time getting in.”
That immediately got the Demon King’s attention. “You said there is a barrier around Tian Shan?”
“Yes.”
The Demon King thought it over for a moment. “It seems that Tian Shan, even if it doesn’t have a Boundary Stone, still has something else going on.”
Actually, he wasn’t sure if Bai Yang’s trail was true or false, but he chose to believe in Bai Yang. Whatever the case, he wanted to personally check out any information concerning the Boundary Stones.
“Barrier?” the Demon King sneered. “What barrier could stop me?”
He stood up and said, “Let’s go.”
He wasn’t clear on where Xie Zetian wanted to go, but he knew Xie Zetian’s strength. Right now, there shouldn’t be that much danger in the Mortal Realm. Therefore, he decided to continue towards his goal.
A party of people’s silhouettes disappeared and continued northwards, moving swiftly.
Bai Yang was also quickly approaching Fenghuang City. It was in the south, and quite far from the Soaring Clouds Sect. Bai Yang used all his power, and after about three to four days of travelling, he finally arrived.
He didn’t stop at all. No matter if it was day or night, he would continued on after only resting briefly, because he knew that if the Demon King’s order was given, the black-robed men would use a special method to directly pa.s.s it on to Lou Jianfeng who was in Fenghuang City, and he would have no way of talking with the male lead.
Lou Jianfeng would act immediately, but Bai Yang still needed time, which means there would be a time difference and, in that time, whether the male lead lived or died would depend on the Will of Heaven.
He hurried on his way, not knowing that every day the Demon King would watch him through the South Sea Mermaid’s Pearl.
Over the next few days, the Demon King became more and more curious about where Bai Yang was heading. He could see Bai Yang’s anxious and serious expression. Seeing him be in such a hurry, he was becoming more and more suspicious.
However, he and his subordinates had already reached the far north, so he couldn’t hurry home to investigate. He increased his speed.
Around noon on the fourth day, Bai Yang finally arrived at Fenghuang City. The city was surrounded by water. A moat was designed around the greater part of the city and beyond that were mountains. From a distance, Fenghuang City was shrouded in a layer of misty fog. It was very hazy.
The city gate was bustling with activity with people arriving in an endless stream. Both ordinary people and cultivators live in Fenghuang City. The atmosphere of the marketplace was very intense and there were many cultivators. Walking in the middle of the road were three people, one of which was a cultivator.
Bai Yang changed his appearance and mixed in with the people lining up to enter the city.
“When did they get so serious about inspection?” Ahead were a few impatient youngsters dressed like cultivators. They started to complain. “Didn’t we used to be able to directly enter the city?”
His companions followed suit to express their dissatisfaction.
Then the person in front of them turned around and said, “Don’t complain. We’ve all been waiting for a shichen.”
“Why come to the city to inspect? Not to mention that I have to wait so long?”
“Hey!” the person ahead of them said. “It’s probably that d.a.m.n Zhou Ying’s fault!”
“Zhou Ying, who’s he?” two of the youngsters asked curiously.
“You don’t know?” Most likely bored of queuing, the person ahead of them started to explain. “Zhou Ying used to be a disciple of the Soaring Clouds Sect. During the Hidden Flower Mirage, he obtained the Dragon Blade. Then he stole Soaring Cloud Sect’s most valuable treasure, the Jade Cloud Pearl and was expelled. I heard he had help from demons….”
