Helian Wei Wei supported herself with one hand while her lips which were hidden under her hair slowly curved into a smile.
She did not try to argue with Xiao Kui. She simply dusted off her shirt and wore a faint expression on her face. She was being so quiet that people could ignore her easily.
Xiao Kui was bored of her dull reaction. She turned away and said excitedly, “Sister Ni, we are going to meet the King later, I’m pretty sure that he will definitely ask you to stay! All the concerns of the patriarchs will surely be resolved by then!”
She cast a glance at Helian Wei Wei as she spoke, like she was looking at a servant, “Nonetheless, you have to be careful of someone. She appeared right on time, it is as though she was purposely waiting to make her appearance at the time of worship. Obviously, she has something in her mind.”
Helian Wei Wei ignored the intentional meaning behind her words and focused on summoning Yuan Ming instead. Fire Qilin was right, it was futile.
Helian Wei Wei did not know much about the Magical Realm and now that Yuan Ming was not with her… She lowered her gaze and pondered while touching the red thread on her wrist with her fingertips.
No matter what happens, this thread cannot be broken…
“Hey, stand right behind me!” Xiao Kui sneered. “Do you know the rules? Do you have any idea that if it wasn’t because of someone requesting to see Sister Ni, you wouldn’t even have the chance to come to the Pandemonium? And yet you’re still dreaming that you will be the chosen one. This is ridiculous! Let me give you a piece of advice. If I were you, I would say something nice to Sister Ni now. Perhaps you may be treated nicely and be given to the King’s subordinates as a reward. Otherwise, just wait and see how miserable you will be later!”
Helian Wei Wei looked at her with a faint expression and said, “Sister Ni is the impressive one here but it is none of your business, isn’t it? I think you are the one who intends to use Sister Ni to climb to the top. Who is your target? The King?”
“You! You!” Xiao Kui was ashamed as Helian Wei Wei exposed her inner thoughts. Indeed, she had planned to do something during this visit but she needed to be friendly with Sister Ni on the surface as well.
Helian Wei Wei did not bother dwelling on this problem with her. What she needed to do right now was to search for a fragment of the prince’s soul.
While she was buried in her thoughts with her head lowered, a red-haired man pushed open the stone door and entered.
The man curled his lips into a smile, emanating a hint of evilness, “The King will surely like the prey this time.”
“Boss, you have good taste.” A magical beast knelt respectfully at the side, “The King has met one of them during his visit to the human world.”
“Bring them in.” The man heaved out a long sigh, “The King has been in a bad mood lately. Remind them to be alert at all times, you know that the King hates it the most when he is touched by others.”
The magical beast answered immediately, “Don’t worry, boss! These three people know the rules very well.”
“Great, follow me.” As his words settled, the stone door seemed to react to his words as it lifted high up.
The true beauty of the Pandemonium was finally revealed at this moment.
The palace was full of stone carvings and completely covered with blooming roses. The palace was a tranquil and serene scene instead of a carnival as they imagined.
The air was filled with delicate fragrance, a simple and pure scent with a heavy fog encircling the palace. The palace was prosperous yet sombre, just like a legendary castle in the ancient days.
Right in the middle of the luxuriant and huge palace hall, a man was sitting on the throne with his legs crossed. He was dressed casually, with a gap opened at the neckline of his robe. A fury cape was hung aside. On his forefinger he wore a black ring. His fingers were long and slender. Looking as if he was bored, he gracefully and elegantly supported one side of his face with one hand.
Everyone was overwhelmed by his indifference, or perhaps by his extremely cold luxuriousness and nobleness. They could not help but maintain a discreet silence. At the same time, they were absent-minded and confused.
The man brought the women in. All the handsome demons halted their entertainment session and looked toward Wei Wei and the others. They curled their lips into a playful smile, looking interested with the food.
However, the man who was sitting on the throne did nothing but flick his eyebrows. He changed to a more comfortable posture, emanating an indescribable feeling of evilness.
“Master, these are the women that you have met previously in the human world.” The man in black smiled and said, “There is a total of three of them and I’ve brought all of them here.”
The man knocked the cup with his long fingers and said with a flat tone, “Busybody.”
“Master, it’s time for you to get a woman on your bed!” The man in black answered in a serious tone.
The man turned his face to the side. One was unable to tell his emotions from his superior and elegant expression.
The woman in purple opened her mouth at this moment. Although her voice was quivering, she was not as panicked as Xiao Kui who acted like the sky was going to fall down. “I’m the one you saw at the Exorcist Temple, both of them are innocent. If you want to do anything, make it only between us and not the others!”
It was at this moment that the man finally opened his eyes and looked in her direction. However, his long and deep eyes were so calm that there was no emotion in it.
The man in black thought that he was satisfied with her, he waved his hand and commanded, “Take her down and clean her up.”
“Yes.” The Earth Beast bowed its head respectfully and took the woman in purple out of the hall by carrying her in its mouth.
Xiao Kui was terrified. She shouted, “Sister Ni! Where are you guys taking her?”
The man seemed to be bothered by the noisiness. He said with extreme impatience, “Whoever is interested in the rest of them, take them away now.”
At first, Helian Wei Wei was listening to them quietly with her gaze lowered as she did not have the intention to fight for the King’s attention. However, when she heard that the man was going to get rid of her, she opened her mouth and said without even lifting her head, “Wait.”
It inevitably sounded like she was ordering him due to her calm tone and originally cold voice.
All of the demons turned around and stared at Helian Wei Wei upon hearing her speak.
They had surprise written in their eyes as they had never seen any human who was dauntless enough to be unbridled to the King.
“Look at her skin. I bet her blood must be delicious!”
“Hey, this is not the main point! The main point is her attitude, did you see that just now? She seems very arrogant.”
“Don’t bother about her. It’s fine as long as she is delicious!”
“Foolish! Do you think the King will let her go after how she treated him?”
Helian Wei Wei overheard their conversation and had a strong urge to question them about her way of treating their King. All she did was nothing but utter a simple word, and all the demons had started to chatter around and ramble about her.
“What’s next?” the man who was sitting on the throne asked again, it seemed like he curled the corner of his mouth had into a smile this time. However, that was definitely not a kind smile!
The entire magnificent hall was surrounded by an overwhelmingly evil aura, it was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop. The demons could not help but swallow hard…
