Chapter 1091: 1091

Upon thinking about how his pill-making genius disciple perished just like that, a burning rage arose inside him. That girl had been an unmatched genius at refining pills.

“Shen Yunya and Jiang Ying’s corpses have yet to be separated. If Supremacy Deng does not believe me, you can go to the mass grave to check for yourself.” Dongshu Emperor held the Empress’s hands, trying to give her a sense of security so that she would not get too anxious. With him at the palace too, even if that Deng Hu was arrogant, he would not dare to be overly arrogant.

Upon hearing the Emperor’s words, Deng Hu lifted his hands to touch his goatee and stared at the Emperor with piercing eyes. ” I will definitely go and collect Ya’er’s body. But right now I want you, the Emperor, to answer to me. As long as you hand over the Crown Prince, the secondary consort, and all those involved, I will surely not bother you any longer.”

Not only did he kill his beloved disciple, he also disposed of her body at a mass grave!

“What do you want to do to them if I hand them over?” Dongshu Emperor exuded an air of authority fit for a king and stared at Deng Hu condescendingly. His Crown Prince had been missing since the day before, how could he turn him over?

In addition, this whole affair had been Shen Yunya’s fault from the beginning. She deserved to die—why should anyone else be handed over?

“They caused the death of my beloved disciple who was a genius in pill refinement. Naturally, I have to kill them to avenge my beloved disciple. Now, if the Emperor agrees to turn over these men, there won’t be any more problems for you. Or else…”

Before Deng Hu could finish his sentence, he heard an icy cold voice from outside the hall say, “Or what?”

Deng Hu was not happy to have his words interrupted. He turned his head around to see two figures walking in with the likes of a divine couple, their fingers tightly interlocked. The two had a form and composure that appeared perfectly harmonious and there was not even a little bit of incompatibility.

As Weng Yue lifted his head, his gaze landed on Feng Tianlan who looked like she had just emerged from a place without light. His sharp eyes squinted gently and a sense of hostility arose as he stared at her like she was his prey.

He thought that this woman was very pretty. At the same time, she had a high and mighty stance and exuded the air of arrogance like a king. This made others wary of her, and they did not dare to speak against her.

Weng Yue strongly believed that all beautiful women were no good, so he quickly shifted his gaze away.

When Deng Hu’s gaze first landed on Feng Tianlan, his look was full of disdain. Although it was the first time he met her, he knew since graduating from Shang Institution that she was that Good For Nothing Shen Qingdai. In addition, she was involved in Ya’er’s death. As such, not only did he dislike her, he was also antagonistic towards her.

Then, Deng Hu turned to look at Si Mobai. As he felt the coldness Si Mobai was giving off and frowned. When he saw the zhusha mole between his brows, his heart shook. This man is…

“Demon King?” Deng Hu glanced at Feng Tianlan, who stood beside Si Mobai. He finally realized that she was Demon King’s woman.

He had long heard about the Demon King’s reputation, but this was his first time meeting him in person. Just from seeing the zhusha mole between this man’s brows, he could tell this woman was extremely lucky to be able to be attached to a man like the Demon King.

The Demon King was indeed so much better than Xi Jin. It was hard to understand what Ya’er was thinking. If she had chosen the Demon King, she wouldn’t have ended up suffering the way she did. It was all because she had chosen the wrong man.

Si Mobai brought Feng Tianlan with him, carrying an aura of a returning monarch. He sat at the bottom left, opposite Deng Hu, and gently lifted his eyes to look at him. “Or else you’ll kill me?”
