Feng Xuan thought to himself, you didn’t even ask about this matter.
Although he didn’t know why Qi Zhuoyu suddenly seemed very irritable, and even cursed the demon doctor as an incompetent physician twice for no reason, with the last time seeming extremely sincere.
But Feng Xuan was very clever and didn’t ask.
He felt it was better not to ask, as asking might bring misfortune upon himself.
As a result, for the next two days when the demon doctors came to check on Qi Zhuoyu’s physical condition, their faces bore injuries of varying degrees.
It was obvious they had been violently beaten. Some demon doctors even limped as they walked, which Feng Xuan found a bit peculiar.
He couldn’t help but step forward and ask, “Don’t you treat yourselves?”
They had been beaten so badly, they should at least apply some medicine to themselves.
But as soon as he mentioned it, the demon doctors were so frightened they shook their heads frantically, hurriedly saying it was just a minor injury.
Feng Xuan saw that his leg was about to be crippled yet still saying it’s a minor injury.
But thinking about it, given Qi Zhuoyu’s temperament as a violent, murderous big devil, as long as he didn’t scatter their ashes, being beaten like this should be considered a minor injury in the eyes of the demons.
As for treatment?
There was no need to treat it again.
Anyway, if they healed, they would just be grabbed and beaten again by His Excellency.
It was better to just stay injured like this!
Fortunately, after a few days, Qi Zhuoyu had no time to beat them.
Something unknown happened in the demon realm, and several groups of different-looking demon generals came in one day.
Feng Xuan couldn’t tell which demon clans these demon generals came from, and could only roughly guess what regions they were from based on their different clothing styles.
Qi Zhuoyu didn’t stop him from listening to government affairs in the main hall.
Feng Xuan estimated that if he was willing, he could even sit on that throne and listen.
Unfortunately, Feng Xuan had no interest in such things.
Not to mention that he found political affairs boring, even the path from the bedroom to the main hall he found too far.
He only occasionally heard some things when he came to deliver medicine to Qi Zhuoyu from afar.
It seemed to be about those restless ancient beasts in the Chaotic Sea.
Feng Xuan remembered hearing about this in the White Jade Capital, but when he came to the demon realm, he only witnessed the scene of the big devil dealing with the demon rebel army.
He hadn’t seen him mention these great beasts, so he didn’t have much impression of them.
After the demon generals left, they still left behind a pile of government affairs.
All kinds of ancient books and scrolls were piled high on the ebony table.
Feng Xuan came to deliver medicine and sneakily took a look, accidentally saying his inner thoughts out loud. “Why is there so much homework?”
In his mind, reviewing government affairs was no different from doing homework.
Qi Zhuoyu answered irrelevantly. “Why still need to take medicine?”
He looked very unhappy.
“The demon doctor said that if your body is not well, you should continue to drink it,” Feng Xuan decided to use the doctor’s words to pressure this naughty child.
Qi Zhuoyu sneered coldly, his expression gloomy. “These incompetent doctors are quite stubborn. After being beaten so many times, they still don’t change their tune. This Venerable will kill them next time.”
Feng Xuan: “…”
So it was really you who beat them, big devil!
Now you’re not even trying to hide it in front of me?
Thinking of the demon doctors who worked hard to treat Qi Zhuoyu’s illness, only to end up with a body full of problems themselves.
Feng Xuan felt embarrassed for Qi Zhuoyu and said softly. “I think we should forget about it. After all, the demon doctors still need to treat your injuries.”
Hearing this, Qi Zhuoyu stared at him for a long time.
Then he reluctantly gave up his idea. “Since you say to forget it, then let’s forget it.”
He looked like a befuddled ruler who listened to everything his beloved concubine said.
Feng Xuan: ? Don’t really put this little demon concubine setting on my head!
Qi Zhuoyu looked at that bowl of medicine with disdain and didn’t drink it.
But he didn’t review the government affairs on the table either, as if they were just decorations.
To be honest, Feng Xuan seemed to have never seen Qi Zhuoyu manage any affairs of the demon realm.
“Aren’t you going to take a look?” Feng Xuan took this opportunity to try to save his demon concubine character setting, and began to persuade the king to attend morning court.
“There’s nothing worth looking at,” Qi Zhuoyu said casually, determined to be a befuddled ruler.
“What if something big happens in the demon realm?” Feng Xuan continued to probe.
“With this Venerable here, what big event could happen in the demon realm?” Qi Zhuoyu started saying such arrogant things again.
Fine then.
He shouldn’t have tried to communicate with this elementary school chicken who always had to be strong.
Feng Xuan picked up a scroll to read himself.
But when he started to read, Qi Zhuoyu became interested instead.
As if he had finally found the joy of reviewing government affairs, he suddenly took advantage of Feng Xuan’s inattention and embraced him entirely in his arms, making him sit on his lap.
Feng Xuan was startled by this sudden intimacy.
Although they had done more intimate things in the past few days.
But this was the main hall of Yingxu Palace, with the big doors wide open not far away, and demon generals coming and going outside. Anyone with good eyesight could see the two people cuddling on the throne at a glance.
Feng Xuan struggled in his arms for a moment, but couldn’t break free, and whispered, “What are you doing?”
Qi Zhuoyu righteously pointed to the scroll in Feng Xuan’s hand. “Looking at the memorial.”
He added, “You were too far away, so I had to hold you closer to see clearly.”
Oh.
That sounded reasonable and well-founded.
He almost didn’t know how to refute.jpg
Feng Xuan was impressed by him.
There were so many scrolls on the table, did he have to look at the one in his hand?
He felt that the big devil sometimes had the same personality as a naughty child.
He didn’t want to play with the toys given to him.
When you held it in your hand to play, he became interested and had to snatch it.
The scroll Feng Xuan got happened to be about the unusual activities of the ancient great beasts under the Chaotic Sea.
He had read some biographies of the primordial era in the White Jade Capital before, and knew that many beasts from the primordial era were sealed under the Chaotic Sea. If they were ever released from the Chaotic Sea, the entire Three Realms would face a catastrophe.
However, the Chaotic Sea, like the Biluo River, was itself a huge barrier.
Unless one day, the Chaotic Sea, like the Biluo River, rose, overflowing valleys and mountains, flooding into the land, it would cause a situation similar to what his father god faced years ago. This would be a flood accompanied by the emergence of various beasts, almost apocalyptic.
There was the precedent of Ying Zhu.
For some reason, when Feng Xuan read the line saying that the great beasts under the Chaotic Sea were restless and the water seemed to be rising, his heart skipped a beat uneasily.
Feng Xuan closed the scroll, a bit worried. “Big devil. Just now I heard those demon generals say that the sea level of the Chaotic Sea is rising, what’s going on?”
Qi Zhuoyu played with a lock of his hair, looking as if he didn’t take this seriously. “No need to worry. It’s just a trivial matter, it can be solved quickly.”
From his tone, it seemed he wasn’t going to tell him.
Feng Xuan found that Qi Zhuoyu seemed to have this bad habit.
That is, he would do things alone, and then keep everything from him.
Fine then.
If he wanted to be a riddle man, there was no way to get anything out of him.
But Feng Xuan still felt uneasy. After thinking for a while, he pulled out his hair and looked at him seriously. “That is. I want to ask you, do you know my Father God Ying Zhu?”
Qi Zhuoyu nodded, thinking that there should be no one in the Three Realms who hadn’t heard of his great name.
Feng Xuan continued. “Do you know how my Father God perished?”
In fact, as long as one had read any official history of the heavenly realm, the heroic deeds of Ying Zhu’s divine perishment were often exaggerated.
Things like fighting alone, one man guarding a pass that ten thousand couldn’t break through, shouldering the life and death of the Three Realms, and so on.
But Feng Xuan was silent for a moment before saying, “Actually, my Father God didn’t die from exhaustion after fighting with the monsters from the outer heavens. After repelling those monsters, Father God was only severely injured, and his primordial spirit hadn’t completely dispersed.”
“Later, he calculated that there would be a great flood in the Three Realms within a thousand years. In order to prevent the Biluo River from flooding the lower realm, causing the extinction of the human race, and also for other races. Father God used his primordial spirit as the array core, resulting in his bodily death and spiritual dissipation.”
Qi Zhuoyu listened quietly, then asked him. “Are you afraid that the Chaotic Sea will have the same situation as the Biluo River?”
Feng Xuan shook his head, not looking at him. “I’m a person with a very small mindset.”
His voice was a bit muffled. “I’m afraid you’ll end up like my Father God.”
After he finished speaking, the main hall fell into silence.
After a while, Qi Zhuoyu kissed him on the side of his neck. “Don’t worry. There’s no need to be afraid.”
He chuckled, his tone like comforting a child. “If the sky falls, Senior brother will protect you.”

In the late night, Feng Xuan was awakened by the muffled thunder overhead.
He had always been a good sleeper, and this was the first time he had been woken up by thunder.
To say he was afraid wouldn’t be quite accurate.
After all, the big devil’s innate spiritual root was of the thunder attribute, and he had closely observed lightning strikes countless times when being held in his arms during their intimate moments.
But when he pulled open the curtains, outside the huge glass window, the sky was a gloomy black.
In the demon realm, it was actually hard to distinguish between day and night, and it snowed most of the time. Weather like this with intertwining lightning was quite rare.
Feng Xuan’s first reaction was, is something happening with the big devil?
After all, whether it was the divine race, demon race, or human race.
As long as one’s cultivation reached a certain level, they could resonate with the Heavenly Dao.
Influencing the weather like this was quite normal.
Feng Xuan looked at the dense, overcast sky, with streaks of lightning constantly revealing themselves.
He felt a bit uneasy, always feeling that Qi Zhuoyu was doing something behind his back.
The more he thought about it, the more concerned he became.
So while it was still dark, he ran to Qi Zhuoyu’s room.
Although Feng Xuan had been living in Yingxu Palace during this time, he hadn’t been sharing a room with Qi Zhuoyu.
Originally, Qi Zhuoyu wanted him to live in that largest bedroom, but Feng Xuan felt that he was here to take care of a patient, how could he drive the big devil, who was injured, to live in other rooms while he occupied the best room in Yingxu Palace.
So he lived in a similarly styled room next door.
There was a corridor separating the two bedrooms.
He only walked a few steps before he arrived, and the light in Qi Zhuoyu’s room was still on.
Feng Xuan quietly pushed open the door and found that Qi Zhuoyu wasn’t asleep, but standing by the bed. A second before he came in, he vaguely saw some blue flames dancing in his hand.
But the moment he entered, Qi Zhuoyu withdrew his spiritual power and turned his head to look at him.
All along, it had always been the big devil coming to his room in the middle of the night.
This seemed to be the first time he actively came to find him.
Qi Zhuoyu turned around. “Something wrong?”
