The Steward Demonic Emperor

Chapter 641



Chapter 641: Dream Butterfly

“Ha-ha-ha, this is great. He still wanted us to take the blame yet got himself deeper into this mess!”

Bright and early, Fiend Yang laughed from his small courtyard to his heart’s content. The other two fiends behind him were enjoying themselves as well.

Zhuo Fan came in and saw them with a quirky look, “What got you so excited?”

“He-he-he, ecstatic is more like it!” Fiend Yang snickered, “What about the brats? Are they coming out? I want to share the excellent news.”

“I’m enough for your showing off. I made the brats place barriers and meditate. They just advanced and need time to stabilize.”

“Ha-ha-ha, right, right. That’s very considerate of you since we are men always going forward to greater challenges. A mere lower three sects stage can no longer hold us.”

Fiend Yang was exuberant, “Steward Zhuo, do you know what we did this morning?”

Zhuo Fan shook his head, “Don’t know, don’t care. The most you could do is be called out regarding yesterday’s affair.”

Ugh!

Fiend Yang shrugged, “You sure have a knack for pissing people off. You can tell what’s going on, yet what comes out of your mouth is denial. You’ve taken all the fun out of it.”

“Ha-ha-ha, Fiend Yang, there’s nothing you can show off to him that gets him excited. Go ahead and just tell him what happened, or I’ll do it myself.” Fiend Yin chuckled.

Fiend Yang was frantic in refusing, “No no no, I’ll be the one to say it. The only way to feel good about it is if I do it myself!”

The others chuckled at his attitude like he was relating some monumental news.

[The punk loves nothing more than to run his mouth. Let him give it a spin!]

“This morning we were woken up by a rude voice. Coming out we see a middle-aged man in shabby clothes. He looked completely average yet his power was out of his world…” Fiend Yang started spinning the events into a fairytale.

Zhuo Fan’s face twitched, “Get to the point already!”

“It was Double Dragon Manor’s errand boy coming to get us to have the ruckus of yesterday be explained.” Fiend Yang’s face sank, grumbling, “Can’t you sympathize with a fellow storyteller for once? One has to set the mood first, yet you have to squish it at the bud.”

Zhuo Fan shook his head, finally getting why all of the Demon Scheming Sect’s elders and venerables feared him relaying any kind of news. He just loved spinning tall and longer tales.

Seeing Zhuo Fan’s unphased, Fiend Yang continued after a pause, “We followed him to the stage, now in ruins, desolate and in solitude. But just when the interest faded, two figures inspiring dignity and power stood there, making our hearts quake…”

“The point!”

Zhuo Fan’s mouth twitched, “And didn’t I only knock down a wall or something? How is that a ruin?”

Fiend Yang gave a hateful wave, “Fine, fine, since you don’t like my artistic skill I’ll use it elsewhere. We were called today to see the Exalted Double Dragons along with the judge and Beast Taming Sect’s remaining soul elder. They questioned us to get to the bottom of what happened.”

“The Exalted Double Dragons in person?” Zhuo Fan faltered.

Fiend Yang nodded, “With the lower three sects stage making such a scene, their presence was obvious. The two were most shocked too. In the end, they decided to oversee the rest of the lower three sects stage so you won’t poke any more holes in it, ha-ha-ha…”

“The Exalted Double Dragons came to see you in particular. This is a great honor!” Fiend Yin nodded.

Zhuo Fan found it strange though, “That’s how the event got cleared up?”

“What else did you expect? I said to them that your opponent on stage was Hui Xiong and you attacked him. The Beast Taming Sect disciples beneath it were drawn into the attack, but it is not our fault they died. This was where the judge came in and spoke the facts as well. The Exalted Double Dragons are models of fairness and would not accuse us for nothing.” Fiend Yang said like it was obvious.

Zhuo Fan was pensive, “How did Elder Lu take it?”

“What do you think? But no matter how he tried to run his mouth and spin it in his favor, the Exalted Double Dragon wouldn’t hear it. All that matters is strength. Everyone who came to Double Dragon Gathering was prepared to suffer heavy losses, though his case was being wiped out to the last man, ha-ha-ha…”

Fiend Yang’s unbridled laughter bellowed out. “Oh, he also said we lied to him, that we did not show you when they came to challenge our elites, saying that you’re not from our sect. But then I got so pissed and shouted at him we’re laborers. You should’ve seen the dumb look on his face! Then he started accusing Sect Leader of lowering himself to such demeaning tricks. The Exalted Double Dragons got annoyed by his ranting and said to him to go find himself a new body before he faded away. Ha-ha-ha, I bet he’s pissed even now.”

The rest laughed as well.

The unlucky Elder Lu had no say in it at all. [Though he is right about one thing, our Sect Leader is despicable.]

They all eyed each other and cracked up again.

“Zhuo Fan, this is bad! Someone took Shuang’er!”

The four jerked and saw Princess Yongning running over in a panic.

“This girl again? Wasn’t she the one to congratulate you yesterday? Now she had her other friend taken?” Fiend Yang raised an eyebrow, “Who’d be dumb enough to do this in Double Dragon Manor? Are they suicidal?”

Zhuo Fan’s heart tightened, helping Yongning steady herself in two quick steps. “What happened?”

“Zhuo Fan, we just went out and some prince started hitting on us. Shuang’er stopped them so I could call for help. She must be in their hands right now…” Yongning was distraught, tears streaming down, her eyes in panic.

The fiends frowned, “What ignorant wastrel would dare make a scene at Double Dragon Manor? Not even the kingdom dignitaries would try something. Moreover, you could’ve just asked any staff from Double Dragon Manor to interfere. Why come to us and so far away?”

Zhuo Fan frowned.

“Zhuo Fan, listen to me…” Yongning sensed their disbelief and was in an even greater panic. Going by her expressions and pleadings, there was no way they were fake, especially the desperate eyes.

Fiend Yang rolled his eyes, “The girl must’ve been scared into losing her mind, making more sense than even me.”

“I get it. We will go save Shuang’er!” Zhuo Fan’s eyes flashed.

Fiend Yang was taken aback, “You’re still going, knowing it stinks?”

Zhuo Fan ignored them as he grabbed Yongning’s waist and flew away.

Fiend Yang was left gaping, but Fiend Yin patted his shoulder, “It’s fine, the kid is far more conniving than you. If you can see the issue, so can he.”

“He’s going despite knowing?” Fiend Yang chuckled then sighed, “The punk has the biggest nerve I ever saw.”

The fiends returned to their rooms, no longer caring what happened to Zhuo Fan…

Meanwhile, in a dense forest, Shuang’er laid peacefully with her eyes closed against a tree, like a sleeping beauty.

She was surrounded by a blue barrier, with a blue butterfly one-meter long flying around.

Whoosh~

Shuang’er’s eyes flashed open and one could see stars in them. A strange power ebbed around the area and the barrier shattered. Then she closed her eyes and slept.

The butterfly shook and spoke in a very familiar tone, “Who the hell is this girl? Why can’t I enter her mind and take control of her? The most I managed is to get her unconscious. W-what the hell is this?”

It was none other than Elder Lu.

When his body got wrecked, he did not show his true form, afraid someone might guess his power. Now he was hell-bent on revenge and would use all he had at his disposal.

If the fiends were here, they’d be shocked.

Because Elder Lu’s soul form was very rare, a butterfly that trapped one’s mind in endless hell, Dream Butterfly…
