Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Vol. 1 - Chapter 61 - Demon Lord’s New Pets

During the time Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying went to the competition between the Qi and Jiang families, Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se naturally stayed to watch over the residence.

Despite Ning Yechen’s absence, they worked hard at cleaning every inch of the mansion.

After they finished cleaning, the three of them sat on the steps, holding feather dusters, cleaning cloths, and other cleaning equipment.

“Hey, when do you think Madam will come back with Miss?” Bai Yuan asked Meng Niu and Qiang Se curiously.

“Even though Madam is only at the Human Immortal realm, she has a lot of spiritual energy, so I reckon it'll be over soon, and they'll be back,” Qiang Se replied with her arms and legs crossed.

She had inadvertently caught sight of Luo Ruying doing the laundry using spiritual energy. Luo Ruying's unusual faint golden spiritual energy felt very strong and unusual, which even made her feel slightly threatened.

If they were to fight to the death, she was not entirely sure about beating Luo Ruying.

Madam was certainly different.

Meng Niu patted his chest and said proudly, “I don’t know when they'll be back, but if Sir lets me fight, I will kill them with a single smack.”

“Stupid Cow, you’d better restrain yourself. If you expose your identity and ruin Sir's plans, he won't forgive you. Don’t forget you threw a snowball on Miss's face, and Sir hasn’t held you accountable for it yet. You should count yourself lucky you’re still alive.” Qiang Se rolled her eyes at Meng Niu.

Sometimes, she was worried that this stupid cow would expose their identities accidentally.

If the Demon Lord became angry, she and Bai Yuan might get implicated.

At the mention of Ning Yechen, the proudness on Meng Niu's face immediately disappeared. He shrank his head like a wilting flower and looked incredibly well-behaved.

He recalled the way he kept breaking things at work and started trembling.

If the Demon Lord had problems with him, he might simply get rid of him…

“Compared to when Sir and Madam come back, I pity the Jiang family. Of all people, they offended Sir.” Qiang Se thought about how terrifying the Demon Lord was and felt sorry for the Jiang family.

Considering the Demon Lord's personality, he would not let them off.

“The Jiang family will likely cease to exist in a few days.” Bai Yuan nodded in agreement.

“In a few days? If he wants to, they will disappear now. But he doesn’t seem to want to make them disappear this way,” Qiang Se said.

Ning Yechen did not order them to take out the entire Jiang family, which could only mean one thing.

He did not want the Jiang family to disappear so simply. Otherwise, he could accomplish this in a matter of seconds.

As Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se casually chatted, knocking sounded on the door.

Someone was here. Was it Sir?

Qiang Se and the other two were startled. They stood up obediently and pretended to work.

They swept the floor and wiped the furniture.

But then they felt puzzled.

It was not Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying's habit to conceal their movements when they came back.

Strangely, they did not hear the slightest sound.

Before long, the residence’s door slowly opened, and a woman with a cold and beautiful face and a dignified demeanor stepped into the courtyard. She looked around curiously and murmured, “Is this the Demon Lord’s home?”

After over a century, she finally found him!

Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se looked over and quietly stopped working.

They thought it was Ning Yechen and were startled, but it was not him!

Meng Niu said in annoyance, “Hey! Who are you? Why did you enter without invitation?”

Recently, other than Qi Yuan visiting occasionally, no one else came.

Seeing an unfamiliar face, Meng Niu immediately assumed she had gotten the wrong door and wanted to drive her away.

Qiang Se stopped Meng Niu, fearful that he might cause trouble. She walked over to Yue Qingyou and asked politely, “Why are you here? My employers are out.”

“Not in, huh?” Yue Qingyou mumbled in disappointment.

She had been waiting for over a century, so it did not hurt to wait a little longer.

While she was here, she wanted to learn more about the Demon Lord’s current life…

Yue Qingyou walked into the courtyard and looked around curiously, ignoring Meng Niu and the other two.

Qiang Se frowned. Who is she? Doesn’t this woman have any manners?

She didn’t want to cause trouble. Otherwise, she would have thrown her out by now!

Seeing Yue Qingyou intending to enter the main hall, Qiang Se and the other two could no longer take it. They blocked the intruder and asked angrily, “Who are you? “Don’t you know it’s rude to enter someone else’s house without permission?”

Yue Qingyou stopped, looked at Qiang Se and the other two calmly, and made a shocking remark. “Sky-Swallowing Python, Chaos Demonic Bull, and Titan Giant Ape… I didn’t realize ancient beasts still existed in the Mortal Realm. Aren’t you a little weak though? Did you just enter the Heavenly Immortal realm?”

The eyes of the three widened in astonishment.

This person could see through their act at a glance!

The three of them had already reached the Heavenly Immortal realm no less!

In the Mortal Realm, they were among the strongest cultivators!

Even Luo Ruying was unable to see through their disguise. But this unexpected woman saw through their pretense almost immediately!

Although they could not detect the slightest aura of cultivation coming from her, she was definitely special!

Their faces turned solemn. They glanced at each other silently and attacked without hesitation.

They had heard that someone wanted to assassinate Madam and Miss. This woman might be it!

Since Ning Yechen was out, it was their duty to protect the house!

They would take down this woman first!

Facing Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se attacked, Yue Qingyou’s expression did not change in the slightest. Instead, she said lightly, “Down.”

In an instant, their heads trembled, and it felt as though some unknown power had taken control of them. They instantly lay prone on the ground!

They could no longer control their bodies!

She was not using spiritual energy against them since they could not detect any coming from this woman.

Instead, it felt as though she could inexplicably control their bodies with her voice and make them obey!

They were completely powerless against her!

Other than Ning Yechen, this was the second person to make them feel such fear and helplessness!

Yue Qingyou stood in front of the three of them, looking down at them. She frowned and said in disdain, “Too Weak. Are you the Demon Lord’s new pets?”

“The Demon Lord’s? Pets?” Qiang Se looked up in confusion.

She wondered if by Demon Lord, this woman was referring to that man.

Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se were cultivators at the Heavenly Immortal realm, but this woman treated them as pets.

Then again, considering that man's abilities, they were really no different from pets.
