Chapter 8
Chapter 8 — Demon Emperor Doan Tinh
That voice still seems to echo in my ears, but the past is like smoke gone, there is no longer a reason to look back. I didn't turn my head to look at Hua Thanh Son, who was crying bitterly, and walked straight away. Suddenly, Bodhisattva's voice transmission was heard behind him:
“The person silently targeting you is…”
When I heard the name Tu Menh Thien Quan, I was not surprised. Since I knew Thanh Loan was in trouble, I guessed he was no longer trustworthy. It's just not clear why. But right now I don't have time to settle accounts with him. Returning to the cave to nurture Thanh Loan's soul is the most urgent thing. By the time Thanh Loan recovered her spiritual wisdom, nearly a hundred years had passed. During those hundred years, impurity rose, purity fell, people became more susceptible to ghosts, and rare people became immortals. In the heavenly court, the fairies who were once oppressed in order to defend me, directly entered the demon world, and became generals under my command. As for those who once relied on Ho Tieu Uyen, they didn't even have the chance to become a demon. They could only watch helplessly as their cultivation level gradually dissipated, eventually turning into mortals, old age and death on the spot. Only those with high cultivation levels like Hua Thanh Son can barely maintain it. And all the immortals blamed Hua Thanh Son, blamed him for not being able to distinguish people, for listening biasedly, and he was speechless and unable to say a word. When Hua Thanh Son fell into isolation on all sides, the enemies he had offended in the past also came one after another. When I arrived at Tu Menh Thien Quan's cave, I often saw this scene through Thuy Kinh. At first, Hua Thanh Son didn't care at all. With his strength, dealing with a few enemies was like reaching for something in his pocket. But unexpectedly, in less than a hundred moves, he was defeated, severely beaten away, and then trampled underfoot by the enemy. He couldn't believe it and shouted:
"It's impossible! Everyone's magic power is decreasing, you can't defeat me!"
The person coming used his right foot to use a little force, Hua Thanh Son cried out in pain, then heard the other person say:
“The rate at which our magic power declines is indeed similar to yours, but we are inherently stronger than you!
If you weren't afraid of the Heavenly Empress - the first of the three worlds in the future - then do you think you could sit on the position of Heavenly Emperor by relying only on yourself? Isn't it all thanks to the Queen! For thousands of years, we have coldly watched you destroy yourself, gradually pushing the Queen away, so happy that we couldn't be happier! Hua Thanh Son's whole body trembled. He suddenly woke up and shouted:
"Did you guys bring Ho Tieu Uyen to me! The things I sent people to investigate in the past, were you also helping Ho Tieu Uyen conceal it?"
In response, he was met with endless bursts of laughter. The enemies say five words:
“What an idiot! Only now did you find out!”
"I don't know what kind of virtue you have to attract the attention of the Empress! Even more broken than that, but the Empress still refuses to leave you! We even despaired, thinking that you would sit forever in the position of Emperor of Heaven, but who would have thought that you would destroy the wall yourself!"
"Ha ha ha! That's right! Tell me, for the sake of a fox, you extracted the Queen's fairy bones and forced her to become a demon! What are you thinking!"
“Do you know, when the news came out, we all laughed like crazy!”
It's one again burst of laughter. Hua Thanh Son's face was purple, he struggled to get up, but someone stepped on his left cheek, half of his face was directly crushed. He asked them if they weren't afraid that we would take revenge if we found out. Unexpectedly, the other person once again smiled arrogantly:
"If it was before, of course I would be afraid, because you are the Queen's life. But what about now? The Queen has entered a demon, and if you die here you won't even get a single glance from her! Are you worthy!"
A thick sputum sprayed straight into Hua Thanh Son's face. He seemed to be frozen, suddenly stiff in place, his mind uncontrollably flashing my cold eyes when looking at him - as cold as looking at an ant. He knew, they were right. Mieu Mieu will never control him again. Severe pain spread from his heart to all four limbs, every inch of his skin, every bone was shaking. Hua Thanh Son's face was as gray as ash and he said softly:
“Kill me.”
The opponent immediately raised his sword high. When Hua Thanh Son closed his eyes, he really wanted to die. He wanted to know, if he died, would Mieu Mieu feel hurt even a little bit because of him. But he didn't expect that nothing would happen. Hua Thanh Son lay motionless on the ground for a long time, only when he regained consciousness did he belatedly realize - Mieu Mieu had saved him once again. He covered his face with his hands, hoarse laughter burst from his throat, getting louder and louder, more and more strange, finally turning into choking sobs.
“Heavenly Emperor really regrets this time, do you still want to enter the devil?”
Tu Menh Thien Quan closed the Thuy Mirror that was projecting the past and casually asked me. I smiled slightly and strangely asked back:
"Why not? After I no longer loved him, I have never been as free and comfortable as I am now."
Tu Menh Thien Quan was not surprised, just clicked his tongue and exclaimed:
“Heavenly Emperor, you see, regardless of the mind's eye, you are still not as good as the Heavenly Empress.”
At this time I discovered that Hua Thanh Son is also here. He was emaciated, his moon-white robe covered in dust, and he was struggling to the extreme. He smiled coldly and said:
"Isn't that what you wanted? If you hadn't led Ho Tieu Uyen to deceive me, I wouldn't have hurt Mieu Mieu that much."
