TBOUMTBDK Chapter 55

So, during that chaotic situation earlier, the Demon Lord went alone to oversee the situation, without even telling Yun Xia to be careful.

Based on Yun Xia’s understanding of him, the Demon Lord, being such a meticulous and gentle person, shouldn’t have let Yun Xia, who was practically cannon fodder, run around carelessly.

But Yun Xia had managed to leave his side so easily, even leaving the high platform.

Now, Xiao Tongfu’s hands were gripping his lifeline like iron claws. Yun Xia’s throat was so painful he couldn’t even utter a word.

But he couldn’t even bother about his throat, because he was more worried about what Xiao Tongfu might do or say now.

He had been accused of wishful thinking by Xiao Tongfu earlier, and he didn’t expect it to come true so quickly.

All he had left now was wishful thinking, hoping that the Demon Lord hadn’t found out about him.

But another voice in his heart told him that this time, it was probably impossible, there was no escaping it.

The Demon Lord probably knew his identity before today.

Otherwise, why would he know that Xiao Tongfu was dangerous, but never remind him, nor reveal his plans to him?

After leaving the Demon Palace, he had been like a fool in the Holy City, only knowing how to eat, drink, and have fun, without even trying to find out about the Demon Lord’s plans.

He thought he could always stay out of it, but was that really possible?

He had contacted Gong Qiu, arranged a meeting with Xiao Tongfu long ago, and even made detailed plans himself, how could he possibly get away unscathed?

The biggest mistake he made was not considering the Demon Lord.

He always knew that the Demon Lord was a very intelligent person, but perhaps because the Demon Lord had always been so good to him, so doting on him, he had let his guard down.

The gentle embrace was most intoxicating.

Now he could do nothing, he could only be held back by Xiao Tongfu, retreating step by step.

But behind them was a large pond, there was no road, and people were everywhere else.

Xiao Tongfu’s voice naturally attracted the attention of many ordinary people.

“Hey! There’s one here too!”

“That’s not right, his eyes are normal, what’s going on? What are you doing! This is the Holy Lord’s little consort, don’t you want to live! Let him go!”

“Hey, hey, hey, don’t say that, didn’t you see his face, obviously there’s something wrong, don’t anger him.”

“Holy Lord, quickly call the Holy Lord over, the little consort has been kidnapped!”

“Could he be the one who can control the Violet Demon Orb!”

“Huh? Why aren’t they fighting?”

As Xiao Tongfu retreated with Yun Xia held hostage, the large group of people in the sky stopped fighting and landed.

The crowd was startled when they saw that those people with purple eyes before were all frightened, but upon closer inspection, their eyes had turned to normal black, and their mental state was very good. They, along with those who had been stopping them before, stared at the two people by the pond with serious expressions.

The other passers-by who had gone up to help landed back on the ground, confused.

Holy Lord Li Yu had already walked over, standing on the high platform, looking down at the two of them.

Yun Xia looked up and clearly saw that the Demon Lord’s expression hadn’t changed at all, and his smile remained the same.

“Who are you?”

“Hehe, I am Xiao Tongfu, I have long heard of the great name of Holy Lord Li Yu.”

“Don’t you know who he is? Let him go, and I’ll spare you,” the Demon Lord said to Xiao Tongfu.

Looking at his face, Yun Xia’s heart sank.

Xiao Tongfu panted and looked around: “Of course I know who he is, your little lover, hehehe I also know you like him very much, and he likes you very much too.”

The Demon Lord raised an eyebrow: “Oh? He said that, said he likes me very much?”

Xiao Tongfu stared at him: “Yes, he admitted it himself, what, don’t you like him?”

Those who were no longer fighting subtly formed a circle, surrounding the two men on the ground at the very bottom, staring intently at Xiao Tongfu, their eyes full of vigilance.

Yun Xia even saw two familiar people, the squad leaders of the Demon Guards who had come out with them.

He was absolutely certain that it was the Demon Lord’s arrangement.

The Demon Lord chuckled: “Like, of course I like, so you must return him to me completely unharmed, otherwise…”

Xiao Tongfu was not intimidated by him at all, and pressed harder on Yun Xia’s throat, so hard that Yun Xia opened his mouth wide to breathe, his hands desperately trying to pry off Xiao Tongfu’s arms, patting him hard.

Damn! He was going to be strangled to death!

Perhaps Yun Xia was too weak, or perhaps Xiao Tongfu was too agitated and used too much force, in short, Yun Xia’s struggle finally awakened some of Xiao Tongfu’s reason.

Xiao Tongfu slightly loosened his arm, but still held him tightly.

Holy Lord Li Yu frowned.

“Seeing how much you dote on him, it’s really great. Now, all of you leave, open the barrier and let me out of the city, otherwise, even if I die, I will take your little darling with me as a cushion!”

The Demon Lord narrowed his eyes: “In other words, you admit that you are the mastermind behind the Violet Demon Orb, and what else? You didn’t complete that plan today, are you planning to just die like this?”

Yun Xia’s heart trembled fiercely.

Esteemed Lord, he really is…

Xiao Tongfu looked at him indifferently: “Is there any need to say this? Weren’t these people arranged by you?”

“If I arranged it, then what are you jumping out for?”

Xiao Tongfu took two deep breaths and stared at him fiercely.

Holy Lord Li Yu remained unmoved.

At this time, due to the temporary silence between them, the voices of the people around them grew louder.

“Is that the person who controls the Violet Demon Orb? We definitely can’t let him go!”

“But the little consort is in his hands, we can’t be impulsive, what if we hurt the little consort?”

“It’s too dangerous, what to do, can we snatch him? There are so many of us, surely we can deal with just one person.”

Xiao Tongfu glanced at these people with cold eyes and said: “You can try, I can’t beat so many of you, but I can still kill one person, hahahaha, even a Demon General, I am confident that I can take him with me before I die, unless you call the Demon Lord here, otherwise, hahahahaha…”

Yun Xia breathed with difficulty, with only a slit of vision left.

In the slit, on the high platform, that man stood there quietly, the Demon Lord that Xiao Tongfu was most afraid of, was standing there.

But the man didn’t move for a long time, nor did he give an order.

As if waiting for something.

Waiting for him?

After a long time, he heard the man say: “Okay, I’ll let you out of the city.”

He chose to continue waiting, calmly observing.

Yun Xia bit his lip.

Xiao Tongfu laughed like a madman: “Hahahaha, good! You must not play any tricks, I am not a fool, I won’t let you deceive me again so easily.”

As he spoke, he twisted Yun Xia’s arm with his other hand, imprisoning him tightly in front of him.

His mental state was obviously unstable now, after all, he was so proud of his plan before, but the first step had not been completed and had already been completely seen through, and he no longer had the calm and composure he had in the inn before.

He didn’t control the strength of his twist on Yun Xia’s arm, and Yun Xia’s eyes welled up with tears from the pain.

While opening the barrier and letting the other irrelevant people leave, Yun Xia still didn’t give up grabbing Xiao Tongfu’s arm, and said in a breathy voice: “Xiao… be calm.”

He didn’t dare to say too much, or make it too obvious, he could only vaguely remind Xiao Tongfu, hoping he could understand what he meant.

Xiao Tongfu was indeed a little calmer at this time, but only seeing his face would reveal that he was not calm at all, looking at the surroundings with a ferocious expression.

Hearing Yun Xia’s words, he said: “Things have already come to this, do you think I can still live?”

Yun Xia nodded immediately.

“Heh,” Xiao Tongfu gave a cold laugh, “I’m afraid it will be difficult for me to have a chance to live, but I won’t be unlucky alone, Yun Xia, junior brother, I lost so thoroughly, because you have already betrayed me, haven’t you.”

He even directly called him Yun Xia, junior brother!

Yun Xia’s eyes widened, shaking his head vigorously, sensitively aware of the other party’s madness.

“Things have come to this, and you still want to lie to me? I was confused before, that’s why I fell for your tricks, but now, looking at the results, you didn’t feed him the Transforming Demon Pill. I entered here alone with you, and then was surrounded, Li Yu made such a big scene, I’m afraid he has already found out who is behind me, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so grand. Even if you didn’t betray me, he has already found out your identity, right? Otherwise, why would he say the sentence about my plan, you tell me, how much does he know you participated in?”

His tone was calm, but the words he said made Yun Xia’s hair stand on end.

At this time, the barrier had been opened. Yun Xia swept his eyes over, and they were all people, with many Demon Guards and Demon Soldiers lined up around, almost like an iron bucket.

Xiao Tongfu looked at all this, completely understanding that he had been under surveillance from beginning to end, like a clown.

He no longer spoke in such a fierce tone as before, and rose into the air with Yun Xia.

Everyone was watching them.

Yun Xia blinked his eyes lightly, blinking away the tears in his eyes.

Yes, Xiao Tongfu’s words were actually what he thought in his heart, but he had always been unwilling to believe it, and unwilling to think deeply about it.

His heart ached terribly.

Clearly, they had chatted heart-to-heart last night, and the Demon Lord had taken the initiative to show him his teenage self. He was so distressed for the Demon Lord that he decided not to leave him again.

Clearly, last night, the Demon Lord had taken the initiative to give up being with him so that he wouldn’t be in so much pain.

Clearly, not long ago, the Demon Lord had confessed to him in front of so many people, and they had kissed.

But, he still had the last bit of hope, maybe, maybe the Demon Lord didn’t know, what he was doing now was part of his plan…

Xiao Tongfu suddenly leaned close to Yun Xia’s ear and said: “Even so, I still think, he likes you.”

His voice was cold, making Yun Xia’s hair stand on end.

“There’s no conflict between liking you and using you, is there? I could see his eyes looking at you very clearly before, hehe, let’s make a bet?”

Yun Xia felt ominous and was about to speak when Xiao Tongfu said loudly: “Holy Lord Li Yu, what a masterpiece. If I waste your arrangements, wouldn’t I be too ignorant of current affairs? How about this, I won’t leave the Holy City either, I might as well just self-destruct here directly, but it would be too lonely for me to enter the underworld alone, why not take your beloved little darling with me, how about that?”

Everyone immediately faced a formidable enemy. Self-destruction was the greatest energy that a person could unleash, especially with Xiao Tongfu’s cultivation base. If he really self-destructed, Yun Xia would probably not even have anySlagleft.

Someone immediately wanted to rush up, but was held back tightly.

Yun Xia swept over there, and it was actually Wei Ying.

And the one who held him back was Demon King Yao Yun.

Only then did Yun Xia realize that not only Yao Yun, but even Hui Tong, An He, Rong Feng, and others had come. It was really… lively.

The Demon Lord’s eyes darkened, and he smiled coldly: “No.”

“Hahahaha, no? What can you do? I only need a moment to self-destruct, do you think you’ll make it in time?”

The Demon Lord narrowed his eyes dangerously: “Since you said that, you must still want to live, say it, what do you want.”

Xiao Tongfu laughed loudly: “Sure enough, Yun Xia, junior brother, listen, he’s asking me what I want, isn’t that just what it means to leave you a way out? How is it, are you happy? He really has you in his heart.”

Everyone was stunned. Yun Xia, junior brother?

What did this mean?

Yun Xia cursed Xiao Tongfu a hundred and eighty times in his heart. Xiao Tongfu must be crazy!

Only the Demon Lord frowned slightly, but did not reveal any other expression, as if he had no other feelings about that Yun Xia, junior brother, but just stared at the two of them.

But when Yun Xia saw him like this, his heart turned cold.

No surprise.

Which meant he knew.

“Why aren’t you talking? Not happy?” Xiao Tongfu was still asking Yun Xia.

Yun Xia said harshly in a hoarse voice: “You shut the hell up!”

His heart was so complicated that he rarely cursed.

The Esteemed Lord’s expression definitely meant he hadn’t just found out, he had known for a long time, but knowing that he was from the Immortal Realm, that he was an undercover agent from the Immortal Realm, he had never said anything, but instead watched him stay by his side, indulging him, doting on him.

Was he waiting for him to show his true colors?

Or was he treating him as a small toy to tease and watch?

Yun Xia couldn’t understand.

Xiao Tongfu was cursed by him, but was not angry at all, and instead said: “Since the Holy Lord said so, then I will say it directly, if you don’t want him to die with me, then eat this, Yun Xia, junior brother, take out the Transforming Demon Pill from your sleeve and feed it to him.”

Yun Xia’s pupils shrank suddenly.

The others were startled: “What? Transforming Demon Pill? Yun Xia… Transforming Demon Pill in his sleeve? Why is it with him?”

“How can there still be something like the Transforming Demon Pill! What does he want to do!”

“Junior brother… are they together?”

“Impossible, isn’t the little consort a person of Holy Lord Li Yu? How could he be on the same side as this kind of person?”

“But…”

Xiao Tongfu urged with a ferocious smile, his fingers caught on Yun Xia’s throat: “Hurry up!”

But Yun Xia gritted his teeth and resolutely refused to take it out.

If only he had destroyed this broken thing earlier!

“Take it out, I’ll eat it.”

The Demon Lord said.

“Holy Lord!!”
