SQLJBFDTW Chapter 80

Under the dim candlelight, Yu Wei lightly closed his eyes.

Due to the earlier heat, the redness on his cheeks hadn’t faded, appearing like the shadows of two red fish beneath the overlapping gauzy curtains illuminated by the candlelight.

Perhaps due to the effects of the medicine, he developed a fever.

Chao Jianxue looked embarrassed.

He wondered if this kind of love poison was harmful to the body. It wasn’t the first time Yu Wei had been poisoned with love potions, and they were all so varied. Would there be any lasting effects?

Fortunately, Yu Wei couldn’t hear his thoughts. If he knew what Chao Jianxue was thinking, he would definitely take the initiative to relinquish control of the indescribable agitation within him.

When Elder Qing came to find Chao Jianxue, he wore a smug expression, a cunning smile that shouldn’t have appeared on a snake’s face: “Demon Lord, how did you feel yesterday?”

Chao Jianxue had been wanting to talk to him about this, but out of respect for him as an elder, he didn’t directly reprimand him. He simply said, “Elder, please don’t send things like that anymore. We’re not that kind of relationship…”

Elder Qing’s old face wrinkled with a smile: “Demon Lord, don’t think that just because I’m old, I don’t understand anything. For decades, the Demon Lord has frequently inquired about that person’s whereabouts and even arranged that golden cage for him. Isn’t that because you like him very much? Qing Tu Liu told me that he was your former lover.”

Chao Jianxue: “…” He wanted to kill Qing Tu Liu.

Elder Qing continued, “Demon Lord, there’s no need to feel burdened. We demons have never had restrictions. Even if you’re both men, my Qing clan has ways to lay snake eggs. Would the Demon Lord like the secret method?”

Chao Jianxue was thunderstruck, unable to accept it, and waved his hands repeatedly: “I don’t want it, I don’t want it. In any case, don’t send it again in the future!”

“Alright.” Elder Qing withdrew his smile, letting out a long sigh, which made Chao Jianxue’s hair stand on end.

“What is it this time?”

“It’s fine if the Demon Lord doesn’t intend to, but if you do want to have offspring, it’s best to find someone of the same race, otherwise, the bloodline will be difficult to preserve, and the blood of Qi Wu will be cut off.”

Hearing this, Chao Jianxue had no intention of leaving behind any bloodline to begin with. Now that he had that kind of thing with Yu Wei, who was also a man, it was destined that he would be alone for life, and he wouldn’t have any other ideas.

He didn’t want to waste any more words with Elder Qing on this matter, so he changed the subject and said with a smile, “Doesn’t Elder Qing want the Qing clan to become the Demon Lord themselves? Are you willing to be suppressed by the Soul Contract for generations to come?”

Elder Qing didn’t expect him to say that. After a moment ofStupid, he said without thinking, “If there’s an opportunity to become a Demon Lord, it would naturally be the glory of the Qing clan.”

This was what Chao Jianxue felt was better about demons than humans.

Demons were more straightforward. If they wanted something, they wanted it; if they didn’t want it, they didn’t want it. They wouldn’t pretend to be obedient just to be polite.

“However, the Qi Wu Demon Lord was kind to the Qing clan. As long as the Demon Lord is his bloodline, the Qing clan will forever remember the original oath,” Elder Qing said solemnly.

Chao Jianxue was touched and said, “In that case, Elder, just remember to do what I tell you to do. In the future, I can guarantee that I won’t have offspring. Therefore, the position of this Demon Lord…”

He didn’t finish his words, but Elder Qing already understood his meaning and cupped his hands: “Thank you, Demon Lord!”

Elder Qing didn’t only come for his personal matters: “In a few days, it will be the Immortal Ascension Festival in the Demon Realm. According to the customs of the Demon Realm, you should tour the territory.”

This Immortal Ascension Festival was established to celebrate the first demon immortal’s ascension. Each demon lord had to dress up as a demon immortal and bestow demonic power upon their subjects. The parade float had to travel through their jurisdiction for three days and three nights to be considered complete.

It wasn’t a difficult task, but now that there was Yu Wei, Chao Jianxue was extremely worried.

What if Yu Wei regained his memory and escaped while he was gone?

Before tying him back, Chao Jianxue hadn’t realized that he would be so anxious. It would be best to shrink Yu Wei down and keep him by his side at all times to feel at ease.

So, he worriedly asked Qing Tu Liu if there was a solution. Qing Tu Liu revealed his true poisonous snake colors: “Since you want him to have no spiritual power and no worries, why not just break his bones and dantian?”

Chao Jianxue’s mouth twitched: “No way.”

“Tsk.” Qing Tu Liu scoffed, “You want him to lose his spiritual power but you can’t bring yourself to be cruel. You’re really going crazy.”

Chao Jianxue had to ask for his help, so he endured this sarcastic remark and flattered him: “You’ve been roaming the underground ghost market for many years. You must know if there’s anything that can shrink a person and completely prevent them from releasing spiritual power!”

Qing Tu Liu evilly curled the corners of his mouth, his vertical pupils lengthening slightly: “The Demon Lord is really lucky.”

The method he gave was a kind of puppet demon technique.

A humanoid figure was folded from special paper, and then a soul was guided onto it. A special magical artifact was then used to allow the person to exist in the world as a small paper doll, unable to use spiritual power. One also had to be careful because the paper was fragile. Once the paper was broken, the person’s body would also be shattered.

Chao Jianxue clicked his tongue: “Isn’t that too wicked?”

“Yeah.” Qing Tu Liu shrugged, “It used to be a means of punishment used by the demon realm nobles in the past. There aren’t many of those papers left. They were just collected by the gambling house in the early years as bets.”

The gambling house had been operating for thousands of years, so it had naturally collected many strange and rare things.

Chao Jianxue said, “I’ll go to the gambling house when I have time to see if there’s anything good.”

Qing Tu Liu became nervous as if he was going to ransack the warehouse: “No!”

Chao Jianxue angrily said, “I am the Demon Lord here!”

Qing Tu Liu said, “Only the Qing clan can enter the warehouse!”

Chao Jianxue didn’t want to argue with him. He thought about it. This paper doll puppet technique wasn’t unusable. It was only three days anyway. He would keep it by his side at all times and wouldn’t hurt it.

“Will it hurt to cast?” Chao Jianxue was still worried.

Qing Tu Liu said harshly, “You really love him very much.”

“Not at all.” Although Chao Jianxue said that, he himself wasn’t confident.

“It won’t hurt! It will only hurt to tear the paper!” Qing Tu Liu rolled his eyes.

However, Chao Jianxue’s little bit of human empathy was acting up. He felt that he should let Yu Wei know before doing this kind of thing. Otherwise, what difference would there be between him and those evil demons?

He returned to the cave. This time, Yu Wei got off thecouchand was standing in front of the lotus flower he had brought, looking at the flower. He didn’t know how long he had been looking at it.

Chao Jianxue felt guilty and used a timid tone to talk about the paper doll puppet technique. Yu Wei’s reaction was beyond his expectations.

A smile appeared on Yu Wei’s lips: “You want to keep me by your side?”

What was going on? Did he have Stockholm syndrome? How could he be so calm, without any of the fear that a kidnapped person should have from beginning to end?

Yu Wei walked closer to him, and the chains on his limbs made a heavy sound. He asked with interest, “Where will the Demon Lord put me? If I’m a small paper doll, I should be very thin. Will you put me close to your body? Or will you hold me in your hand?”

Chao Jianxue was temporarily speechless. He really suspected that this person had possessed Yu Wei’s body. Where had the once shy and aloof little junior brother gone! Not to mention the past, what about the recent high-cold Master Jade Boat Owner? Where had he gone!

Yu Wei suppressed the trembling in his fingertips, which was as excited as a fire.

Not to mention Chao Jianxue thought he was strange, he didn’t know what was wrong with himself. Only when he encountered his senior brother, only when facing Chao Jianxue, did the self-control he was used to disappear.

When he was a junior brother, he could deal with it with ease, because his senior brother was within reach, allowing him to kiss him, allowing him to stroke him, responding to his kisses, responding to his love…

But now things had changed.

Chao Jianxue didn’t want to appear in front of him as his senior brother, didn’t want to accept his active closeness, and didn’t even want to take off his mask in front of him!

He was completely deceived by him. He was heartbroken, and he was ecstatic. Did his senior brother not have a bit of guilt! A bit of pity!

Puppet technique was fine, imprisonment was fine, he accepted it all, but how long would he have to wait for his senior brother to tell him the truth…

Liar…

What was the difference between such a liar…

And his past, so trusted, uncle…

Dark desires were taking root in his bones. Yu Wei’s mind became more and more chaotic, as if it were a dual heaven of light and darkness. The lewd scenes he had once seen in Tan Zhou’s room in the Northern Border kept reappearing before his eyes.

What if that pitiful face turned into his senior brother…

His past life was full of dogma. He finally had such a bright color appear, and he couldn’t let go.

It would be better to directly take his senior brother back to One Leaf Boat and lock him up. Hadn’t he been preparing for this illusory day for a long time…

Chao Jianxue saw that he suddenly turned his back, his body trembling slightly, and his breathing becoming rapid, as if he was crying!

He was shocked and quickly walked forward: “Hey, there’s no need to be like this… You can stay wherever you want…”

Yu Wei strode back to the inner room and closed theThe door.

Chao Jianxue “Tsk” sound, little junior brother’s heart like a needle at the bottom of the sea, how to inexplicably.

But he still continued to sleep in the same inner room as Yu Wei.

Whether it was decades apart or amnesia, Yu Wei had one habit that had never changed.

Every day when he woke up, he would fold the quilt neatly.

In the past, when the two of them were intimate, Chao Jianxue had even witnessed him folding the quilt without even opening his eyes, even though he was still a little sleepy.

It was truly a very strong ability to be self-disciplined.

Chao Jianxue couldn’t do it. He was lazy where he could be lazy. He stretched, and sometimes Yu Wei was still groggy, so he would roll him into the quilt and wrap him into a long strip.

Thinking of the past, Chao Jianxue’s heart was filled with melancholy. He propped his head up and looked at Yu Wei, who had already started changing clothes, his eyes glancing over, like an unattainable picture.

The two of them spent two days in peace.

Chao Jianxue was afraid that Yu Wei would be bored, so he picked out some novel objects that were unique to the Demon Realm for him to relieve boredom, while he focused on cultivating.

However, sometimes, Yu Wei’s gaze was too difficult to ignore, so he had to open his eyes.

Yu Wei was playing with a semi-transparent crystal ball, in which lived a beautiful colorful butterfly. This was a butterfly species unique to the Demon Realm, and the children of the Demon Realm liked it.

He asked, “Did the Demon Lord also like this crystal ball before?”

Chao Jianxue casually said, “I wasn’t in the Demon Realm when I was a child.”

“Where was the Demon Lord before?”

Chao Jianxue twitched the corners of his mouth. He was really caught in his trap: “I wasn’t anywhere. You’re not allowed to talk to me anymore.”

Yu Wei’s expression looked somewhat dazed.

Staring very seriously.

Chao Jianxue’s eyelids twitched, and he helplessly took the initiative: “Don’t look at me anymore either.”

Yu Wei thoughtfully said, “Did I know the Demon Lord before?”

Chao Jianxue denied: “I don’t know you.”

“If we don’t know each other, why did the Demon Lord save me? Why did you bring me these things? And why are you so friendly to me?”

This series of questions bombarded Chao Jianxue’s eyes with dizziness.

He was indeed too “friendly” to Yu Wei.

But what could he do?

He could clearly completely ignore him, he could clearly directly force-feed him medicine…

Or be even more ruthless and abolish his cultivation to eliminate future troubles—he couldn’t do this no matter what.

He just couldn’t bring himself to harden his heart towards Yu Wei.

So, he had to give in again and again, and he didn’t have any of the Demon Lord’s majesty in front of the amnesiac Yu Wei.

Chao Jianxue couldn’t help but think that it would be good if Yu Wei’s IQ dropped a little at the same time as he lost his memory.

“What’s that person’s name?” Yu Wei quietly asked. He hesitated for a moment before following Chao Jianxue’s words, “The person you call, the person I had an affair with.”

“…” Chao Jianxue refused to answer this question, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.”

“Oh,” Yu Wei spun the crystal ball in his hand, and the butterfly danced up and down in it, shimmering with colorful light, which also illuminated his eyebrows and eyes brightly, “But I vaguely have an impression that that person… had the word ‘snow’ in their name. I’m also not called Little Lotus.”

Chao Jianxue became nervous, and Yu Wei caught the moment his expression changed, and said, “The Demon Lord really knows something?”

Hey, who is imprisoning whom now?

Chao Jianxue regretted it. He shouldn’t have come because he forced him with a hunger strike. Retreating again and again, he was subconsciously led by Yu Wei’s nose.

“You’re called Little Lotus.” He coldly imitated Yu Wei’s appearance in One Leaf Boat. “Don’t think about that person anymore. That person deceived you!”

Yu Wei looked at him and said, “What if that person has difficulties?”

“No difficulties!”

“The Demon Lord is not that person, how do you know that they don’t have difficulties?”

Chao Jianxue was annoyed. He didn’t want to entangle these questions with him now. It was meaningless.

He turned his back and ignored him.

In the end, Yu Wei only said this because he had amnesia. If he remembered the past, he would definitely not be able to say these nice words to him when facing him.

How could anyone be so stupid, to be deceived of their feelings and still be thinking about him?

However, Chao Jianxue admitted that when Yu Wei said these words, his heart skipped a beat for a small moment.

He had to face the reason why he was wearing a mask, the reason why he didn’t let Yu Wei know he was still alive—

It was because he was afraid that Yu Wei would look at him with the kind of desperate and hateful eyes he had in the beginning.

Yes, afraid.

Yu Wei looked at his back. There was indeed no possibility of turning around and talking to him.

His emotions suddenly sank, and the butterfly in the crystal ball seemed to sense some aura and stopped moving.

Two more days passed, and Chao Jianxue came back after drinking some wine.

But he was still conscious. Yu Wei still didn’t give up and asked softly during the gap in his dozing, “What’s my name?”

It seemed that only if he said it, Yu Wei could really confirm that his senior brother was not dead, that his senior brother was still his senior brother.

Chao Jianxue remained unmoved, his eyes very clear: “Little Lotus.”

Yu Wei smiled.

But the golden lotus in the pot had somehow broken its branches and leaves.

–

Today was the Immortal Ascension Festival. The little demons who came to serve him to change his clothes were already prepared outside. Chao Jianxue left the inner room. Like the previous Immortal Ascension Festival, he just sat there and let them do what they wanted.

The The doorwas not closed tightly, and Yu Wei was sitting there quietly, looking at Chao Jianxue’s back through a narrow crack.

The little demons took off his mask and took off the robe he was wearing.

Chao Jianxue didn’t avoid him. In the swaying shadows of the clothes, he revealed a section of slender and powerful waist, and his long hair was like a waterfall, spreading over his bright white shoulders, like a touch of ink painting the divinity of a snow mountain.

The scattered sounds of pendants and jewels colliding were like spider silk, capturing Yu Wei’s senses. Those brilliant and dazzling gems swayed in the candlelight with suffocating brilliance.

Gorgeous clothes covered Chao Jianxue’s body, layer upon layer, like red clouds covering the moon.

The blue kingfisher was on his forehead, and the golden sun hung on his dark temples.

The corners of his eyes were adorned with red, and gold was applied to his lips. ExtremelyDemonic beauty.

The little demon held up a mirror and muttered, “Is it okay for the Demon Lord not to wear a mask in front of a beauty like this?”

The mirror reflected Chao Jianxue’s condescending gaze, as well as the undisguised look of amazement in the crack of the The door.

The Immortal Ascension Festival naturally couldn’t wear a mask.

Chao Jianxue thought, anyway, this person had lost his memory.

Besides, in this form, who could recognize who it was.

Under his instruction, Qing Tu Liu, who had been waiting outside for a long time, brought the paper for the puppet technique into the inner room. Chao Jianxue was nervous for a while, and then he saw him holding a thin, small paper doll that was no bigger than the length of his palm.

The paper doll outlined eyebrows and eyes, but it was better not to outline them, because under Qing Tu Liu’s clumsy painting skills, it really looked very stupid.
