“Cluck, cluck… National Preceptor, allow me, Jade Fan, to send you on your way.”
Jade Fan laughed furiously, her delicate jade-like hand sweeping through the air. Her treasured white jade fan instantly expanded to a full zhang in size.
“Princess, show mercy with your fan!”
A lazy, casual, yet somewhat helpless voice cut clearly through the wind and rain. A hazy, illusory figure “slowly” approached.
“Giggle, giggle… Grand Preceptor, let the Jade Fan send you off.”
The Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her slender jade hand waved, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please show mercy!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain, and a figure that seemed both real and illusory “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and the Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, but with a single step, he had already passed through the demonic barrier they had set up and stood within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the fury in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head. “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you on Kunlun Mountain?! Or who helped you escape danger multiple times?”
Qiao San shook his head helplessly, sighing deeply. “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, Bold will turn and leave immediately, even help you eliminate the Grand Preceptor.”
“Bastard, who do you think you are? This king will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also filled with rage, especially since he couldn’t stand the way his beloved consort was making eyes at the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s aura was abruptly interrupted by a rainbow light, and the veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San. Though she said nothing, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose in the minds of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a tone of regret. “Princess, Bold has wronged you this time. You should leave. For this month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King!”
Weighing the pros and cons was Jade Fan’s specialty. After giving the rogue who had ruined her plans a deep look, the Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night, and the Roc Demon King’s enraged figure also disappeared.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the celestial flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music. “Bold Brother, thank you! This is the newly refined Myriad Flower Pill, which can keep Night Maiden alive for another month.”
Qiao San caught the flying pill with a bitter smile, while also harboring a hint of resentment. “How long do I have to keep being this bodyguard? Don’t push it too far, or I might just turn on you.”
“Bold Brother, don’t worry. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century Earth Fire Island sacrificial ceremony. After the Earth Fire Sacrifice, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“Earth Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San repeated subconsciously. In the entire Earth Realm, aside from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so clueless, muttering foolishly, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” The sound of heavy objects falling echoed continuously in the princess’s residence. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, able to command the wind and rain at will; but now, she had been utterly defeated by Gou Yuan, turning all her past glories into fleeting clouds.
Even the Roc Demon King, as foolish as he was, knew that he could no longer deal with Gou Yuan. The Demon King of the Demon Clan also smashed a ten-foot table in frustration.
“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s faces change dramatically.
A black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the majestic voice of the Demon King. “Daughter, you’re too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. Royalty didn’t have much familial affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the princess’s residence. “Father, forgive me, please listen to my explanation…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when has your father ever blamed you?”
The Demon King’s affection far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations. The ethereal voice paused slightly, then made Jade Fan ecstatic. “Daughter, it’s not that I don’t want you to eliminate Gou Yuan, but the time is not yet right. Don’t worry, though her ambitions are great, she cannot escape my grasp.”
“Father means…” Jade Fan instantly regained her confidence. The Princess of the Earth Realm, who rarely showed emotion, couldn’t help but moisten her eyes in the face of her long-lost father’s love. So, her father’s heart was still with her!
“To deal with the Formless Heart Technique, Earth Fire Island is a good place! Prepare yourself, there’s less than a month left.”
“Father, I understand!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled, and her boundless fighting spirit made the Princess of the Earth Realm rise into the air, speaking each word with determination. “Father, rest assured, at the once-in-a-century Earth Fire Sacrifice, I will definitely eliminate that wretch Gou Yuan.”
The Demon King left satisfied, and the princess’s laughter filled her residence. Meanwhile, the Roc Demon King brought up an old topic again. “My love, Bold Three is always a problem. We can’t just eliminate him directly, it’s a bit tricky!”
“Giggle, giggle…” With the gloom in her heart gone, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left nothing to chance. She raised her sleeves, and her graceful body flew into the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her stunning dance captured the demon king’s heart, making the Earth Realm’s fiercest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My king, your consort has her own methods, hmm… Good king, you must go to Earth Fire Island first thing tomorrow, like this… Your consort is counting on you.”
“So soon? Isn’t there still a month?”
The Roc Demon King had just begun to oppose the idea when Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind. “Fine, fine, this king will set off first thing tomorrow. My love, tonight you must… Heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My king, you’re so bad!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of passion and flesh immediately arrived.
Cold rain illuminated the flickering candlelight indoors, casting onto the face of the newcomer, a face devoid of any murderous intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
Unexpectedly appearing where he shouldn’t be, the sight reignited Jade Fan’s fury. “Audacious San, have you forgotten who plotted against you at Kunlun Mountain and failed? Or who has repeatedly saved your life?”
Qiao San helplessly shook his head, filled with emotion. “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Lady Ye’s life, I’ll leave immediately, or even help you eliminate the National Preceptor.”
“Keke… Grand Preceptor, let me, Jade Fan, see you off.”
Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her slender jade hand waving, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please show mercy!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain without hindrance, as a figure, ethereal and illusory, “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, yet in a single step, he had passed through the demonic barrier they had set up, standing within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the fury in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head. “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you on Kunlun Mountain?! Or who has repeatedly helped you escape danger?”
Qiao San shook his head helplessly, sighing deeply, “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, I will turn and leave immediately, even helping you eliminate the Grand Preceptor.”
“Bastard, who do you think you are? I will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also consumed with rage, especially as he couldn’t stand the flirtatious glances his beloved consort exchanged with the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s imposing aura was abruptly interrupted by a burst of colorful light. The veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San, silent, yet the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose simultaneously in the minds of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a tone of regret, “Princess, I’m sorry this time. You should leave. For the next month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King!”
Weighing the pros and cons, Jade Fan’s specialty, she cast a deep glance at the rogue who had ruined her plans. The Princess of the Earth Realm decisively melted into the night, and the Roc Demon King’s enraged form vanished as well.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the celestial flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music, “Brother Bold, thank you! This is the newly refined Myriad Flower Pill, which can sustain Night Maiden’s life for a month.”
Qiao San caught the flying elixir with a bitter smile, his voice tinged with resentment, “How long do I have to keep playing this bodyguard role? Don’t push me too far, or I might just turn on you.”
“Brother Bold, rest assured. In less than a month, it will be the centennial sacrifice day on the Island of Earth Fire. After the Earth Fire Sacrifice, I will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“The Earth Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San repeated unconsciously. In the entire Earth Realm, aside from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so naive, muttering foolishly, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” The sound of heavy objects falling echoed continuously in the princess’s residence. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, commanding the wind and rain at will. But now, she had been utterly defeated by Gou Yuan, turning all her past glories into fleeting clouds.

“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s faces change dramatically.
A cloud of black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the majestic voice of the Demon King, “Daughter, you are too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. Royalty had little room for familial affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the princess’s residence. “Father, forgive me, please listen to my explanation…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when has your father ever blamed you?”
The Demon King’s affection far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations. The ethereal voice paused slightly, then continued, bringing Jade Fan to the brink of ecstasy, “Daughter, it’s not that I don’t want you to eliminate Gou Yuan, but the time is not yet right. Rest assured, though her ambitions are great, she cannot escape my grasp.”
“Father, you mean…” Jade Fan instantly regained her confidence. The Princess of the Earth Realm, rarely moved by emotion, couldn’t help but moisten her eyes at the long-lost paternal love. So, her father’s heart was still with her!
“To deal with the Formless Heart Technique, the Island of Earth Fire is a good place. Prepare yourself; there’s less than a month left.”
“Father, I understand!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled with infinite fighting spirit. The Princess of the Earth Realm rose into the air, her voice firm and resolute, “Father, rest assured. At the centennial Earth Fire Sacrifice, I will surely eradicate that vile Gou Yuan.”
The Demon King left satisfied, and the princess’s laughter filled the residence. The Roc Demon King, however, brought up an old topic again, “My love, Bold Three is always a problem. We can’t directly eliminate him, which makes it quite tricky!”
“Keke…” With her gloom dispelled, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left nothing to chance. She waved her sleeves, and her graceful body flew onto the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her mesmerizing dance tightly captured the Demon King’s heart, making the Earth Realm’s mightiest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My King, I have my own methods. Hmm… my good King, you must go to the Island of Earth Fire first thing tomorrow morning, like this… I rely on you, my King.”
“So urgent? Isn’t there still a month?”
The Roc Demon King had just begun to entertain thoughts of opposition when Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, instantly changing his mind. “Alright, alright, I will set off first thing tomorrow morning. My love, tonight you must… heh, heh!”
“Mmm… My King, you’re so naughty!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night, filled with the scent of spring and flesh, arrived immediately.
“Cluck, cluck… Grand Preceptor, let me, Jade Fan, see you off.”
Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her slender jade hand waved, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please show mercy!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain without hindrance, and a figure as illusory as a shadow “slowly” approached.
The Roc Demon King and Jade Fan were both startled. The newcomer seemed to be strolling leisurely, but in one step, he had already passed through the demonic barrier they had set up and stood within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the anger in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head. “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you in Kunlun Mountain?! Or who has helped you escape danger multiple times?”
Qiao San helplessly shook his head and sighed deeply, “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, Bold will turn and leave immediately, even help you get rid of the Grand Preceptor.”
“Bastard, who do you think you are? I will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King was also enraged upon seeing the rogue, especially since he couldn’t stand the flirtatious glances his beloved consort gave to the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s imposing aura was abruptly interrupted by a seven-colored light. The veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San. Though she remained silent, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose in the hearts of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a regretful tone, “Princess, Bold is sorry this time. You should leave. For this month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King!”
Weighing the pros and cons was Jade Fan’s specialty. After giving a deep look to the rogue who had ruined her plans, the Princess of the Underworld decisively merged into the night, and the enraged figure of the Roc Demon King also disappeared.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the fairy flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music, “Brother Bold, thank you! This is the newly refined Myriad Flower Pill, which can keep Night Maiden alive for another month.”
Qiao San caught the flying elixir with a bitter smile, while also harboring a hint of resentment, “How long do I have to be this bodyguard? Don’t push it too far, or don’t blame me for turning against you.”
“Brother Bold, rest assured. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century sacrifice day on the Island of Earthfire. After the Earthfire Sacrifice, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“The Earthfire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San subconsciously repeated the phrase. In the entire Underworld, apart from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so foolish as to mutter, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the princess’s residence, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had almost smashed everything in the room, yet she still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm.
She had once been the noblest woman in the Underworld, able to command the wind and rain at will; but now, she had been utterly defeated by Gou Yuan, turning all her past glories into fleeting clouds.
Even the Roc Demon King, as foolish as he was, knew that he could do nothing against Gou Yuan. The Demon King of the Demon Clan also smashed a ten-foot table in frustration.
“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s expressions change drastically.
A black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the majestic voice of the Demon King, “Daughter, you are too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. Royalty had little room for familial affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the princess’s residence. “Father, forgive me, please listen to my explanation…”

“Father, I understand!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled, and her boundless fighting spirit made the Princess of the Underworld rise into the air. She spoke each word with determination, “Father, rest assured, when the once-in-a-century Earthfire Sacrifice comes, I will surely eradicate that wretch Gou Yuan.”
The Demon King left satisfied, and the laughter of Princess Jade Fan filled the residence. Meanwhile, the Roc Demon King brought up an old topic again, “My love, Rogue Three is always a problem. We can’t directly eliminate him, which makes it a bit tricky!”
“Cluck, cluck…” With the gloom in her heart gone, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left nothing to chance. She waved her sleeves, and her light body flew onto the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her exquisite dance moves tightly captured the heart of the Demon King, making the Underworld’s fiercest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My King, I have my own methods, hmm… my good King, you must go to the Island of Earthfire first thing tomorrow morning, like this… I rely on you, my King.”
“So urgent? Isn’t there still a month left?”
Just as the Roc Demon King was about to voice his opposition, Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind, “Alright, alright, I will set off first thing tomorrow morning, my love. Tonight, you must… heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My King, you’re so naughty!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of spring breeze and fleshly entanglements arrived instantly.
“Giggle, giggle… Grand Preceptor, let the Jade Fan send you off.”
The Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her slender jade hand waved, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, show mercy with your fan!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain without hindrance, and a figure that seemed both real and illusory “slowly” approached.
The Roc Demon King and the Jade Fan were both startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, but in just one step, he had passed through the demonic barrier they had set up and stood within arm’s reach.

“Bold Brother, rest assured. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century sacrificial day on the Fire Island. After the Fire Sacrifice, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San subconsciously repeated the phrase. In the entire Earth Realm, aside from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so clueless, still muttering foolishly, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the princess’s residence, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, commanding the wind and rain at will. But now, she had suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of Gou Yuan, turning all her past glories into fleeting clouds.
Even the Roc Demon King, as foolish as he was, knew that they could no longer deal with Gou Yuan. The Demon King of the Demon Clan also smashed a ten-foot-long table in frustration.
“Ha, ha…”

“Giggle, giggle…” With her gloom dispelled, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left no stone unturned. She waved her sleeves, and her graceful body flew onto the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her stunning dance tightly captured the demon king’s heart, making the Earth Realm’s fiercest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My King, your consort has her own methods. Hmm… Good King, you must go to the Fire Island tomorrow morning, like this… Your consort relies on you.”
“So urgent? Isn’t there still a month left?”
Just as the Roc Demon King was about to voice his opposition, Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind. “Fine, fine, this king will set off tomorrow morning. Beloved Consort, tonight you must… Heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My King, you’re so bad!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of spring breeze and flesh tones arrived instantly.
Standing leisurely in the rain and wind, Qiao San spoke once again in a tone of regret. “Princess, I’m truly sorry this time. You should leave. For the next month, I will be the National Preceptor’s bodyguard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Ten Thousand Demon King!”
“Giggle, giggle… Grand Preceptor, let me, Jade Fan, send you off.”
Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her slender jade hand waving, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please be merciful with your fan!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain unimpeded, as a seemingly illusory figure “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, yet in a single step, he had passed through the demonic barrier they had set up, standing within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the fury in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head. “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you on Kunlun Mountain?! Or who has helped you escape danger multiple times?”
Qiao San shook his head helplessly, sighing deeply. “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, I will turn and leave immediately, and even help you eliminate the Grand Preceptor.”
“Fool, who do you think you are? I will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also enraged, especially as he couldn’t stand his beloved consort’s flirtatious glances at the rogue.
The formidable presence of the Roc Demon was suddenly disrupted by a radiant, multicolored light, as the ethereal figure of the Book Spirit materialized beside Qiao San. Though she uttered no words, the intensity of the atmosphere in the space immediately intensified twofold.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose in the minds of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a regretful tone, “Princess, I’m sorry this time. You should leave. For this month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons!”
Weighing the pros and cons, Jade Fan’s specialty, she gave the rogue who had ruined her plans a deep look, and the Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night. The Roc Demon King’s enraged figure also vanished.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the celestial flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music, “Bold Brother, thank you! This is the newly refined Ten Thousand Flowers Pill, which can sustain Night Maiden’s life for another month.”
Qiao San caught the flying elixir with a bitter smile, while also harboring a hint of resentment. “How long do I have to be this bodyguard? Don’t push it too far, or I might turn on you.”
“Bold Brother, rest assured. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century sacrificial day on the Island of Earthly Fire. After the Earthly Fire Sacrifice, I will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“The Earthly Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San repeated unconsciously. In the entire Earth Realm, aside from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so foolish as to mutter, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the princess’s residence, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet she still couldn’t quell the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm.

“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s faces change dramatically.
A black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the commanding voice of the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons. “Daughter, you are too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. Royalty had little room for familial affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the princess’s residence. “Father, forgive me, please listen to my explanation…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when has your father ever blamed you?”
The Demon King’s affection far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations.

The Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons left satisfied, and the princess’s laughter filled the residence. Meanwhile, the Roc Demon King brought up an old topic again. “My love, Bold Three is always a problem. We can’t directly eliminate him, which makes it a bit tricky!”
“Giggle, giggle…” With her gloom lifted, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left nothing to chance.

“So soon? Isn’t there still a month?”
Just as the Roc Demon King began to entertain thoughts of opposition, Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind. “Alright, alright, I will set off first thing tomorrow morning. My love, tonight you must… heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My King, you’re so naughty!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night, filled with the scent of spring and flesh, arrived at once.
Inside the pill room, Gou Yuan’s eyes, deep as abysses, slowly opened. As he absorbed the essence of immortal flowers and demonic herbs, his voice, like celestial music, sounded again. “Brother Audacious, thank you. This is the Myriad Flower Pill I recently refined; it can prolong Lady Ye’s life for a month.”
Qiao San caught the flying pill with a helpless, bitter smile, and with a hint of resentment, asked, “How long must I play bodyguard? Don’t push your luck, or I’ll really turn against you.”
“Rest assured, Brother Audacious. In a little over half a month comes the centennial sacrificial ceremony at the Earthfire Island. After the Earthfire Ceremony, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return Lady Ye to you, alive and well.”
“The Earthfire Ceremony?!” Qiao San instinctively echoed, probably the only person in the entire Earth Realm, aside from newborn infants, foolish enough to mutter cluelessly, “What the heck is that?”
“Bang, bang…” Within the Princess’s mansion, heavy objects continuously crashed to the ground. Jade Fan had nearly shattered everything inside, yet her anger remained unabated. Thinking of the rogue’s “betrayal,” her last trace of charm was swept away by madness.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, getting whatever she wished for. But now, defeated soundly by Gou Yuan, all her past glories had turned to fleeting smoke.
“Crack, crack… Grand Preceptor, let the Jade Fan send you off.”
The Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her delicate hand waving, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, show mercy with your fan!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain, as a figure that seemed both real and illusory “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and the Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, yet in a single step, he had passed through the magical barrier they had set up and stood within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the anger in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head. “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you on Kunlun Mountain?! Or who has helped you escape danger multiple times?”
Qiao San shook his head helplessly, sighing deeply. “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, Bold will turn and leave immediately, even helping you eliminate the Grand Preceptor.”
“Fool, who do you think you are? I will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also filled with rage, especially as he couldn’t stand the flirtatious glances his beloved concubine gave to the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s aura was abruptly interrupted by a burst of colorful light. The veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San, and though she remained silent, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose in the minds of the Roc Demon King and his wife.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a regretful tone. “Princess, Bold has wronged you this time. You should leave. For the next month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons!”
Weighing the pros and cons was Jade Fan’s specialty. After giving the rogue who had ruined her plans a deep look, the Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night, and the Roc Demon King’s enraged figure also vanished.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the celestial flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music. “Bold Brother, thank you! This is the newly refined Ten Thousand Flower Pill, which can sustain Night Maiden’s life for a month.”
Qiao San caught the flying elixir with a bitter smile, his voice tinged with resentment. “How long do I have to keep being this bodyguard? Don’t push me too far, or I might just turn against you.”
“Bold Brother, don’t worry. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century sacrifice day on the Island of Earth Fire. After the Earth Fire Sacrifice, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“Earth Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San repeated instinctively. In the entire Earth Realm, apart from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so foolish as to mutter, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the Princess’s mansion, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” had driven away her last trace of charm.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, able to command the wind and rain at will. But now, she had been utterly defeated by Gou Yuan, and all her past glories had become fleeting clouds.
Even the Roc Demon King, as foolish as he was, knew that he could no longer deal with Gou Yuan. The Demon King of the Demon Clan also smashed a ten-foot-long table in frustration.
“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s faces change dramatically.
A cloud of black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the majestic voice of the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons. “Daughter, you are too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. In the royal family, there was little affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the Princess’s mansion. “Father, forgive me! Please let your daughter explain…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when has your father ever blamed you?”
The Demon King’s affection far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations. His ethereal voice paused slightly, then brought Jade Fan to the brink of ecstasy. “Daughter, it’s not that I don’t want you to eliminate Gou Yuan, but the time is not yet right. Rest assured, though her ambitions are great, she cannot escape my grasp.”
“Father, you mean…” Jade Fan instantly regained her confidence. The Princess of the Earth Realm, who rarely showed emotion, couldn’t help but blush at the long-lost paternal love. So, her father’s heart was still on her side!
“To deal with the Formless Heart Technique, the Island of Earth Fire is a good place. Prepare yourself; there’s less than a month left.”
“Father, your daughter understands!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled with boundless fighting spirit, and the Princess of the Earth Realm rose into the air, speaking each word with determination. “Father, rest assured. On the day of the once-in-a-century Earth Fire Sacrifice, your daughter will surely eliminate that vile Gou Yuan.”
The Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons left satisfied, and the Princess’s laughter filled the mansion. Meanwhile, the Roc Demon King brought up an old topic again. “Beloved, Rogue Three is always a problem. We can’t directly eliminate him, which makes it a bit tricky!”
“Ha, ha…” With her gloom lifted, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled Princess who left no stone unturned. She waved her sleeves, and her graceful body flew onto the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her mesmerizing dance captured the Demon King’s heart, making the Earth Realm’s mightiest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My King, your concubine has her own methods. Hmm… Good King, you must go to the Island of Earth Fire tomorrow morning, and do this… Your concubine relies on you.”
“So urgent? Isn’t there still a month left?”
Just as the Roc Demon King began to oppose the idea, Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind. “Alright, alright, I’ll set off tomorrow morning. Beloved, tonight you must… Heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My King, you’re so bad!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of spring breeze and flesh-colored allure arrived instantly.
“Ha, ha…”
“Cluck, cluck… Grand Preceptor, let the Jade Fan send you off.”
Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her slender jade hand waved, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please show mercy!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain without hindrance, as a seemingly illusory figure “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, but with a single step, he had already passed through the demonic barrier they had set up, standing within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the fury in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head, “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you on Kunlun Mountain?! Or who has helped you escape danger multiple times?”
Qiao San helplessly shook his head, sighing deeply, “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, Bold will turn and leave immediately, even helping you eliminate the Grand Preceptor.”
“Bastard, who do you think you are? This king will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also enraged, especially unable to bear the flirtatious glances his beloved consort gave to the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s imposing aura was abruptly interrupted by a seven-colored light, as the veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San. Though she remained silent, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose in the hearts of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a remorseful tone, “Princess, Bold has wronged you this time. You should leave. For this month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King!”
Weighing the pros and cons was Jade Fan’s specialty. After giving a deep look to the rogue who had ruined her plans, the Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night, and the enraged figure of the Roc Demon King also vanished.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the celestial flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music, “Brother Bold, thank you! This is the newly refined Myriad Flower Pill, which can sustain Night Maiden’s life for a month.”
Qiao San caught the flying spirit pill with a bitter smile, while also harboring a hint of resentment, “How long do I have to be this bodyguard? Don’t push it too far, or I might just turn against you.”
“Brother Bold, rest assured. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century Earth Fire Island sacrificial day. After the Earth Fire Sacrifice, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“Earth Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San subconsciously repeated the phrase. In the entire Earth Realm, apart from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so foolish, muttering, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the princess’s residence, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm, leaving only madness.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, able to command the wind and rain at will; but now, she had been utterly defeated by Gou Yuan, turning all her past glories into fleeting clouds.
Even the Roc Demon King, as foolish as he was, knew that he could no longer deal with Gou Yuan. The Demon King of the Demon Clan also smashed a ten-foot table in frustration.
“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s expressions change drastically.
A cloud of black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the majestic voice of the Demon King, “Daughter, you are too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. Royalty had little room for familial affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the princess’s residence, “Father, forgive me, please listen to my explanation…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when has your father ever blamed you?”
The Demon King’s affection far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations. The ethereal voice paused slightly, then brought Jade Fan to the brink of ecstasy, “Daughter, it’s not that I don’t want you to eliminate Gou Yuan, but the time is not yet right; rest assured, though her ambitions are great, she cannot escape my grasp.”
“Father means…” Jade Fan instantly regained her confidence. The rarely emotional Princess of the Earth Realm, faced with her long-lost father’s love, couldn’t help but moisten her eyes. So, her father’s heart still leaned towards her!
“To deal with the Formless Heart Technique, Earth Fire Island is a good place! Prepare yourself, there’s less than a month left.”
“Father, I understand!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled, and her boundless fighting spirit lifted the Princess of the Earth Realm into the air, as she spoke word by word with determination, “Father, rest assured, on the day of the century Earth Fire Sacrifice, I will surely eradicate that wretch Gou Yuan.”
The Demon King left satisfied, and the laughter of Princess Jade Fan filled the residence, while the Roc Demon King once again brought up an old topic, “Beloved consort, Rogue Three is always a problem. We can’t directly eliminate him, which makes it a bit tricky!”
“Cluck, cluck…” With the gloom in her heart gone, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left nothing to chance. She raised her sleeves, and her graceful body flew onto the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her exquisite dance tightly captured the Demon King’s heart, making the Earth Realm’s fiercest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My king, your consort has her own methods, hmm… Good king, you must go to Earth Fire Island early tomorrow morning, like this… Your consort relies on you.”
“So urgent? Isn’t there still a month left?”
Just as the Roc Demon King was about to voice his opposition, Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind, “Alright, alright, this king will set off early tomorrow morning. Beloved consort, tonight you must… Heh, heh!”
“Mmm… My king, you’re so bad!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of flesh and passion arrived instantly.
A mass of black mist floated into the study with irresistible force. From within the fog came the majestic voice of the Ten Thousand Demon King. “Daughter, you acted too hastily. Have you forgotten your father’s orders?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt to the ground in fear. There was little familial affection in the royal family; the crime of deceiving the monarch alone was enough to reduce this princess’s mansion to rubble. “Forgive me, Father! Please hear me explain…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when have I ever blamed you, my daughter?”
The affection in the Ten Thousand Demon King’s voice far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations. The ethereal voice paused briefly before bringing her immense joy. “Daughter, I never forbade you from eliminating Gou Yuan, only that the timing was not yet ripe. Rest assured, though her ambitions are great, she still cannot escape my palm.”
“Father’s meaning is…” Jade Fan instantly regained her confidence. Rarely emotional, the Earth Realm Princess, faced with long-lost paternal love, couldn’t help but moisten her eyes. So, Father still favored her!
“To confront the Tianxin Formless Art, Earthfire Island is the perfect place! Prepare yourself; there’s less than a month left.”
“Father, I understand!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled. Renewed determination lifted the Earth Realm Princess into the air. She spoke with solemn emphasis. “Rest assured, Father. During the centennial Earthfire Ceremony, I will definitely eliminate that wench, Gou Yuan.”
“Crack, crack… Grand Preceptor, let me, Jade Fan, send you off.”
Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her delicate hand waving, and the white jade fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please show mercy!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain without hindrance, as a shadowy figure “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer seemed to be strolling leisurely, but with a single step, he had passed through the magical barrier they had set up and stood within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.

“Bastard, who do you think you are? I will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King was also enraged, especially seeing his beloved consort’s flirtatious glances at the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s imposing aura was abruptly interrupted by a seven-colored light. The veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San. Though she said nothing, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose in the hearts of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a remorseful tone, “Princess, I’m sorry this time. You should leave. For this month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King!”
Weighing the pros and cons was Jade Fan’s specialty. After a deep glance at the rogue who had ruined her plans, the Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night, and the enraged figure of the Roc Demon King also vanished.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the fairy flowers and demon herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music, “Bold Brother, thank you! This is the newly refined Myriad Flower Pill, which can sustain Night Maiden’s life for a month.”
Qiao San caught the flying elixir with a bitter smile, while also harboring a hint of resentment. “How long do I have to be this bodyguard? Don’t push it too far, or I might turn against you.”
“Bold Brother, rest assured. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century sacrifice day on the Fire Island. After the Fire Sacrifice, I will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San repeated unconsciously. In the entire Earth Realm, apart from newborn babies, perhaps only he would be so naive, still muttering foolishly, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the princess’s residence, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had almost smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm.

The Demon King left satisfied, and the princess’s laughter filled the residence. The Roc Demon King, however, brought up an old topic again. “My love, Bold Three is still a problem. We can’t directly eliminate him, which makes it a bit tricky!”

“Nonsense, who do you think you are? I will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also enraged, especially since he couldn’t stand the flirtatious glances his beloved consort gave to the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s imposing aura was abruptly interrupted by a burst of multicolored light. The veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San. Though she remained silent, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose simultaneously in the minds of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a tone of regret. “Princess, I’m sorry this time. You should leave. For the next month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King!”
Weighing the pros and cons, a skill at which Jade Fan excelled, she took a deep look at the rogue who had ruined her plans. The Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night, and the enraged figure of the Roc Demon King also vanished.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more.

“My King, I have my own methods. Hmm… My dear King, you must go to the Island of Earth Fire first thing tomorrow morning. Do this and that… I rely on you, my King.”
“So soon? Isn’t there still a month?”
The Roc Demon King had just begun to entertain thoughts of opposition when Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, instantly changing his mind. “Alright, alright, I will set off first thing tomorrow morning. My love, tonight you must… Heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My King, you’re so bad!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of passion arrived, enveloped in the warmth of spring.
“My King, I have my own plans. Hmm… Dear King, please head to Earthfire Island first thing tomorrow morning. Like this and that… I completely rely on you, my King.”
“So soon? Isn’t there still a month left?”
“Crack, crack… Grand Preceptor, let the Jade Fan send you off.”
The Jade Fan laughed in extreme anger, her delicate jade hand waved, and the white jade treasure fan instantly expanded to a size of ten feet.
“Princess, please show mercy!”
A lazy, casual, and somewhat helpless voice cut through the wind and rain without hindrance, as a figure that seemed both real and illusory “slowly” approached.
Both the Roc Demon King and the Jade Fan were startled. The newcomer appeared to be strolling leisurely, but with a single step, he had already passed through the magical barrier they had set up, standing within arm’s reach.
The cold rain reflected the flickering candlelight in the room, illuminating the face of the newcomer, which bore no trace of killing intent.
“Ah, it’s you—”
The unexpected figure appeared in a place where he shouldn’t be, and the anger in Jade Fan’s heart surged to the top of her head. “Bold Three, have you forgotten who plotted against you on Kunlun Mountain?! Or who helped you escape danger multiple times?”
Qiao San shook his head helplessly, sighing deeply. “Princess, I haven’t forgotten! If you can save Night Maiden’s life, Bold will turn and leave immediately, even helping you eliminate the Grand Preceptor.”
“Bastard, who do you think you are? This king will devour you alive today!” The Roc Demon King, seeing the rogue, was also consumed with anger, especially as he couldn’t stand the flirtatious glances his beloved consort gave to the rogue.
The Roc Demon’s aura was abruptly interrupted by a burst of colorful light. The veiled figure of the Book Spirit appeared beside Qiao San. Though she said nothing, the pressure in the space doubled instantly.
This was an opponent even more formidable than Qiao San—the same thought arose simultaneously in the minds of the Roc Demon King and his consort.
Qiao San stood lazily in the wind and rain, speaking again in a tone of regret. “Princess, Bold is sorry this time. You should leave. For the next month, I will be the Grand Preceptor’s guard. If a fight breaks out, it will surely alert everyone in the palace, including the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons!”
Weighing the pros and cons was Jade Fan’s specialty. After giving a deep look to the rogue who had ruined her plans, the Princess of the Earth Realm decisively merged into the night, and the Roc Demon King’s enraged figure also disappeared.
In the alchemy room, Gou Yuan’s deep, pool-like eyes opened once more. As she absorbed the essence of the celestial flowers and demonic herbs, she spoke in a voice like heavenly music. “Brother Bold, thank you! This is the newly refined Ten Thousand Flowers Pill, which can sustain Night Maiden’s life for a month.”
Qiao San caught the flying elixir with a bitter smile, while also harboring a hint of resentment. “How long do I have to keep being this bodyguard? Don’t push it too far, or I might just turn on you.”
“Brother Bold, don’t worry. In less than a month, it will be the once-in-a-century Earth Fire Island sacrificial ceremony. After the Earth Fire Sacrifice, Gou Yuan will no longer trouble you, and I promise to return a living Night Maiden to you.”
“Earth Fire Sacrifice?!” Qiao San unconsciously repeated the phrase. In the entire Earth Realm, aside from newborn infants, perhaps only he would be so clueless, muttering foolishly, “What’s that? Never heard of it!”
“Bang, bang…” In the princess’s mansion, the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground continued incessantly. Jade Fan had nearly smashed everything in the room, yet it still couldn’t alleviate the resentment in her heart. The thought of the rogue’s “betrayal” drove away her last trace of charm, leaving only frenzy.
She had once been the most noble woman in the Earth Realm, able to command the wind and rain at will. But now, she had been utterly defeated by Gou Yuan, turning all her past glories into fleeting clouds.
Even the Roc Demon King, as foolish as he was, knew that he could no longer deal with Gou Yuan. The Demon King of the Demon Clan also smashed a ten-foot-long table in frustration.
“Ha, ha…”
Laughter—sudden laughter blew open the tightly shut door, and the familiar aura made Jade Fan and the Roc Demon King’s expressions change drastically.
A black mist drifted into the study with an irresistible force, and from within the mist came the majestic voice of the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons. “Daughter, you are too impatient. Have you forgotten your father’s command?”
“Thud!” Jade Fan knelt on the ground in fear. In the royal family, there was little affection, and the crime of deceiving the king was enough to level the princess’s mansion. “Father, forgive me, please listen to my explanation…”
“Ha, ha… Rise, when has your father ever blamed you?”
The Demon King’s affection far exceeded Jade Fan’s expectations. His ethereal voice paused slightly, then brought her immense joy. “Daughter, it’s not that I don’t want you to eliminate Gou Yuan, but the time is not yet right. Don’t worry, though her ambitions are great, she cannot escape my grasp.”
“Father, you mean…” Jade Fan instantly regained her confidence. The usually unemotional Princess of the Earth Realm, faced with her long-lost father’s love, couldn’t help but moisten her eyes. So, her father’s heart was still on her side!
“To deal with the Formless Heart Technique, Earth Fire Island is a good place! Prepare yourself, there’s less than a month left.”
“Father, I understand!” Jade Fan’s beautiful eyes sparkled, and her boundless fighting spirit made the Princess of the Earth Realm rise into the air. She spoke each word with determination. “Father, rest assured, at the once-in-a-century Earth Fire Sacrifice, I will definitely eliminate that wretch Gou Yuan.”
The Demon King of Ten Thousand Demons left satisfied, and the laughter of Princess Jade Fan filled the mansion. Meanwhile, the Roc Demon King brought up an old topic again. “My love, Rogue Three is always a problem. We can’t just eliminate him directly, which makes it a bit tricky!”
“Giggle, giggle…” With her gloom dispelled, Jade Fan was once again the unparalleled princess who left nothing to chance. She waved her sleeves, and her graceful body flew onto the Roc Demon King’s palm. Her exquisite dance captivated the Demon King’s heart, making the Earth Realm’s fiercest warrior more obedient than a puppy.
“My king, your consort has her own methods, hmm… Good king, you must go to Earth Fire Island first thing tomorrow morning, like this… Your consort relies on you.”
“So urgent? Isn’t there still a month left?”
Just as the Roc Demon King was about to voice his opposition, Jade Fan cast a flirtatious glance his way, and he immediately changed his mind. “Alright, alright, this king will set off first thing tomorrow morning. My love, tonight you must… Heh, heh!”
“Hmm… My king, you’re so bad!”
The curtains fluttered, and the night of spring breeze and flesh-colored allure arrived instantly.
“Mmm… My King, you’re so naughty!”
The canopy fluttered, the spring breeze swirled, and a night filled with passion instantly arrived.
