Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"What? He married his only apprentice?" Hu Xiu looked incredulous.

"That's right." Ji Zhang didn't understand why the elder looked like this. Did the demon world also attach so much importance to ethics and morals?

What surprised Hu Xiu was not only the ethical issues, but also the fact that the Cang Mo God Lord was a scheming liar. The ruler of the demon world, the naive and foolish Demon Lord.

These two were clearly brothers back then, but now they are getting married? If these two were not the same as those two, it would be fine. But if they were, it would be really ridiculous.

"Isn't this really weird?" Hu Xiu looked at the opposite side with an expression of watching a good show.

"Elder, what should we do next?" Ji Zhang looked back at Hu Xiu and asked puzzledly.

We can't just monitor and do nothing.

"Once her identity is confirmed, we will take the Demon King back to the demon world. No, take her to the Mixu territory. We cannot take her back to Fengmuling." Hu Xiu said after thinking it over again and again.

"Use the magic power you gave us to confirm it?" Ji Zhang asked uncertainly.

"That's right, these demonic powers were obtained by me with great effort in the past. They are the demonic powers of the Demon King himself. Can I use them to communicate with the reincarnated Demon King?" Hu Xiu said with certainty.

Ji Zhang looked at Hu Xiu and said nothing more. Instead, he turned around and continued to stare at the Priest's Mansion.

Not far from the attic where Ji Zhang was, Sang Zi was also secretly monitoring everything here.

Sang Zi now finally understood what the Great Elder meant and hoped to welcome back the Demon King. The Third Elder had the same idea as the Great Elder.

Therefore, the intentions of these two people finally reached the same goal, and Zhu Ji's feelings for Hei Yu were not in vain. At least they were working towards the same goal.

In the afternoon, the setting sun sank to the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun passed through the locust trees on both sides of the river, casting patches of mottled afterimages. There was a hint of beauty in the loneliness, just like Helan Ruofeng's mood at the moment.

At the entrance of the priest's palace, there were noisy sounds of people drinking and urging each other to drink.

Taibu Xingjun drank the wine brought by Long Xiao, squinted his eyes and looked at the excitement on the other side of the river, seemingly not caring about the extremely depressed mood of his only good disciple at the moment.

In the priest's house, the auspicious time was almost approaching.

Yu Xiaobai was wearing an elegant red wedding gown and her head was covered by a headscarf embroidered with auspicious dragons and phoenixes. She allowed Zi Yan and Qiu Yue to support her as she slowly walked towards the main hall.

Yu Xiaobai felt both calm and nervous. She was about to get married. After today, she would go from being a young girl to being the wife of the high priest. Oh, no, Lan Moqiu was no longer the high priest, so she was no longer the wife of the priest, but Mrs. Lan.

Are you nervous? No, it's just a wedding. Even if you haven't eaten pork, have you seen pigs run? It's just like that.

Is it calm? No, getting married is a very important event in life, how can it be calm? Her palms were full of sweat from nervousness.

However, Yu Xiaobai is very good at hypnotizing and persuading himself.

She told herself that she had become the object of envy of many women, among whom was Sa Yulong, the eldest daughter of Yunji Villa.

Sa Yulong's status is also very remarkable. There are thousands of immortal gates in the human world, and Yunji Villa is one of the top five. As the eldest lady of Yunji Villa, she has such a noble status that she even moved into the priest's house for Lan Moqiu.

Yu Xiaobai was somewhat vain, at least she got the person that Sa Yulong had always dreamed of. However, she felt a little regretful, if the person she would spend her life with was Ruofeng, she would feel that it was okay not to be envied by others, and it was okay to be an unknown person.

I was thinking about something and tripped and almost fell.

"Be careful, there are steps." Zi Yan reminded softly.

In front, Lan Moqiu was smiling and didn't seem to think that the bride would fall, but the spectators around were frightened.

Yu Xiaobai was finally sent to Lan Moqiu by Zi Yan in a state of trepidation, and a large red silk with a brocade ball was stuffed into her hands.

Yu Xiaobai hurriedly took the red silk and held it in her hand. She could only see the person in front of her in red standing in front of her. She knew that this person was Lan Moqiu, the person she had relied on before, and the person she would rely on and could rely on in the future.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here!" Lan Moqiu whispered so that only the two of them could hear it.

After hearing his words, Yu Xiaobai felt a little calmer.

Just then there was a sudden commotion outside the door, and someone said that His Majesty had arrived.

Sure enough, Jin Xuan walked all the way to the hall accompanied by Zhao Yu, and Xiao Yuanzi behind him was holding a pile of gifts.

The civil and military officials naturally recognized their emperor and knelt down in greeting.

"No need to be so polite. Today is a great day for the high priest. You must not confuse the priorities because of me." Jin Xuan lowered his voice and said sternly.

The ministers around who heard it immediately stood up and bowed. Seeing this, Jin Xuan continued to walk into the hall and slowly stood aside to watch the ceremony.

The master of ceremonies saw that His Majesty was not going to sit on the seat but was standing, so he looked at Lan Moqiu inquiringly.

Lan Moqiu just nodded casually, meaning it was up to him.

No one dared to sit down on the throne. It was well known that the high priest was over 300 years old. Throughout the entire Crescent Moon Dynasty, who was older than him? Your Majesty, Your Majesty certainly didn't dare to sit down. After all, he was the high priest who assisted the successive emperors of the Jin family.

Those who were able to enter the hall to watch the ceremony were all high-ranking officials of the Xinyue court, such as Prime Minister Zhou, the four ministers, and the generals.

Others include Sa Hurricane, the head of Yunji Villa, his beloved disciple Zhou Ze and a group of disciples, and Zi Yan who gets along well with Yu Xiaobai.

In addition, there are some disciples from other immortal sects and chivalrous knights in the martial arts world, probably people Lan Moqiu knows.

When the master of ceremonies saw that everyone was present, he began to chant the blessing: "A good time is like summer, and the fate is destined for three lives. There is a gentleman Cang Mo who loves Feng Xi. Today is the day for the wedding ceremony to be held, and the good fate is sealed. Poems are sung to praise Guan Ju, and elegant songs are sung to praise the unicorn's feet..."

Yu Xiaobai didn't understand what the emcee was reading and could only listen quietly.

Lan Moqiu also listened quietly, his thoughts unconsciously drifting back to a long, long time ago.

In the empty seat at the top, sat a girl in red, with bright eyes, white teeth and an innocent smile.

Below, he held a red silk in his hand, and at the other end of the red silk was a gentle and fragile woman. The woman was not extremely beautiful, but she was very gentle, so gentle that people felt that she was as fragile as a baby who needed protection at all times.

This was how Lan Moqiu felt when he first met her. He felt that she was a weak and helpless baby, just like Liuli who had to be carefully cared for in his hands.

This woman's name was Minnuo, and she was the woman Lan Moqiu was going to marry. She looked at him tenderly with her eyes, drawing him deeply into them, and making him unable to extricate himself.

Everything was very quiet around, and everyone was listening to the MC's long and boring speech.

Yu Xiaobai had already spent the whole day putting on makeup and dressing up, and after hearing the host talking like that, she even felt drowsy while standing.

Suddenly, she felt a strange gaze staring at her from the left, and...

Yu Xiaobai instinctively turned her head, and a sharp sword in the crowd stabbed towards her heart at a rapid speed.

The incident happened unexpectedly, and before she had time to think, she pulled the veil with one hand and blocked the sword with the other.

With a swish sound, the sharp sword pierced through her right palm.

"Ah..." Yu Xiaobai screamed in pain.

"Ah..." The people around also started shouting.

"There is an assassin, protect His Majesty..." Prime Minister Zhou also shouted.

The scene suddenly became chaotic. Some people in the crowd began to run outside, while others shouted and screamed in panic.

The sharp sword went straight through Yu Xiaobai's right hand, but because her hand lost its force, the sword deviated a little and pierced into her abdomen.

The veil slid to the ground, and she used her left hand to hold the sword tightly to prevent the sword from piercing deeper into her body.

Lan Moqiu also struck out with his palm at this time, and the opponent was directly knocked out, hitting the corridor column hard and falling down.

"Demonic spirit?" Sa Hurricane shouted.

All the disciples of the immortal sect rushed forward and immediately became alert.

Zhao Xie protected Jin Xuan behind him, and Zhou Xiang and several generals quickly surrounded him and protected him in the middle.

Zhou Ze recognized the person at a glance and immediately shouted: "High Priest, please show mercy, she is Junior Sister Yu Long..."

"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, how are you?" Zi Yan was the first to rush over and hugged Yu Xiaobai and shouted in a panic.

"Hiss...it hurts..." Yu Xiaobai was already grimacing in pain.

Blood was gushing out of her right hand, and her left hand was scratched because she was holding the sword tightly, and her abdomen was stabbed. However, she grabbed it in time and was not pierced. However, it was true that if she was not treated quickly, she would die from excessive blood loss.

It was all because of her own carelessness. She thought she was absolutely safe in the priest's house. Also, because there were many people coming to the wedding today, she drove Hei Duo far away and asked him to come back in a few days.

Lan Moqiu looked at Sa Yulong in confusion. She had demonic power in her body, and... He turned his gaze to Yu Xiaobai.

"Rebellious girl, why do you have demonic power in your body?" Sa Hurricane quickly leaped in front of Sa Yulong and used his spiritual power to explore directly.

Sa Yulong was hit by Lan Moqiu's palm and spat out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, she no longer had the strength to get up.

"Haha, what belongs to Brother Lan is mine. He can't marry anyone else except me." Sa Yulong didn't listen to Sa Hunny's words at all. She still looked at Yu Xiaobai and threatened him as if she was deaf.

"Rebellious girl..." Sa Hurricane was furious, but he could not do anything else.

"Demonic power?" Sa Yulong murmured in a low voice, and began to use his own demonic power with great effort.

Suddenly, Yu Xiaobai, who was already weak, felt not only the pain in his body, but also the tearing and burning sensation from before.

"What do you want to do?" Lan Moqiu shouted sternly and raised his hand to kill Sa Yulong.

"High Priest, please hand this rebellious girl over to me to be disciplined at Yunji Villa?" Sa Hun immediately spoke out to stop him.

Lan Moqiu frowned and turned his head away as if to agree.

"Godfather, Xiaoyu is dying..." Zi Yan cried loudly, and kept stroking Yu Xiaobai to comfort her.

Lan Moqiu then remembered that the most important thing for him now was to save Yu Xiaobai first.

"Hurry up and escort His Majesty back to the palace. I'm here." After saying this, Lan Moqiu squatted down and picked up Yu Xiaobai directly.

Suddenly, two figures rushed in from outside the courtyard and headed straight for the hall. Wherever they passed, the palace guards who tried to intercept them and the secret guards brought by Jin Xuan suddenly fell to the ground.

"Sir, it's the demon tribe..." Long Xiao rushed in in a dishevel and shouted loudly.

When Zi Yan heard that they were from the demon tribe, she immediately wiped away her tears and retreated to Jin Xuan's side. She drew her sword and began to vigilantly protect him as they retreated outside.

As soon as the guests who came to the banquet heard that there were monsters, they began to flee in all directions without regard for everything and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The two figures rushed directly in front of Lan Moqiu.

Seeing this, Lan Moqiu could only stop temporarily and looked down at Yu Xiaobai, whose face was pale in his arms.

"Lord Cangmo, how are you..." Hu Xiu recognized Lan Moqiu at a glance.

Rumor has it that Lord Cangmo died after being punished for violating the rules of heaven. Unexpectedly, the rumor about his death was false, and the truth was that he hid in the human world and lived a carefree life.

"Who are you? A demon?" Lan Moqiu did not answer Hu Xiu's question directly, but asked in a puzzled tone.

"Has Lord Cangmo forgotten about me?" Hu Xiu asked in surprise.

Could it be that he is not Lord Cangmo? But just a person from the immortal sect who looks like Lord Cangmo?

"How can you forget if you don't know him?" Lan Moqiu asked with a deliberately confused look on his face.

Hu Xiu, a sinister and cunning old man, how could he forget him. However, in order for Feng Xi to live in the human world forever, he could not get to know this mean old guy.

"Don't know him? That's good. Ji Zhang, snatch him away." Hu Xiu roared and attacked Lan Moqiu first.

Although Lord Cangmo was only a Grand Diviner in the God Realm, his fighting power was even more terrifying than Bai Ji. Since this high priest was not Lord Cangmo, he naturally would not take him seriously.

Seeing that the old guy tried to snatch people as soon as he heard that he was not Cang Mo, Lan Moqiu thought that he must have underestimated him, so he could only hold Yu Xiaobai and fight with him.

He couldn't remember how many decades, hundreds, or even thousands of years it had been since he had a fight.

Hu Xiu and Ji Zhang both tried to grab Yu Xiaobai from Lan Moqiu's arms at the same time. The three of them fought back and forth, and no one could get involved.

Sa Hun and Zhou Ze both guarded the injured Sa Yulong.

Sa Yulong immediately sensed the demonic power that was the same as the demonic power in her body, and she took a sharp look at Yu Xiaobai.

Just when she was wondering whether the demon spy was Yu Xiaobai, two people who rushed in from outside the door also had the same demonic power.

Sa Yulong fell into deep thought. Could it be that Yu Xiaobai was just like her, being controlled by that mysterious man in the same way?

No, those two people are from the demon clan, and no matter whether Yu Xiaobai is controlled by the mysterious man like herself, Sa Yulong will not let her have an easy time.

Sa Yulong thought about it, and then he grabbed Sa Hurricane tightly and said, "Dad, when I was in Hanyu City, I was controlled by a mysterious person. He injected a strange demonic power into my body, saying that it could sense the demon spies hiding in the immortal gate. It was her, the bride that the high priest wanted to marry - Yu Xiaobai."

That’s right, Sa Yulong wants everyone to suspect Yu Xiaobai.

Lan Moqiu, who had been dealing with Hu Xiu calmly, frowned and looked at Sa Yulong. For the first time in his life, murderous intent appeared on his gentle face.

"Daddy, what I said is true, and I can prove it now." Sa Yulong shrank back behind Sa Hurricane to seek protection, and secretly began to use his own demonic power.

I saw that the demonic power in her body was slowly overflowing from her body and continuously merging into Yu Xiaobai.

"No, she has been absorbing my spiritual power. Daddy, please help me. I don't want to become a useless person." Sa Yulong suddenly screamed in horror.

Sa Yulong discovered that Yu Xiaobai had absorbed not only the demonic power injected by the mysterious man, but also her own spiritual power.

Lan Moqiu secretly cried out in dismay upon seeing this. If this happened, her identity might no longer be hidden.

"Hahahaha... I've come to the right place today." Hu Xiu laughed excitedly upon seeing this. He didn't expect that this girl was actually the reincarnation of the Demon King.

At this moment, Lan Moqiu just wanted to take Yu Xiaobai away from here as soon as possible, but Hu Xiu and Ji Zhang kept pestering him.
