Demon Lord Gets Married

Chapter 32

C32 – Take What You Need

“Why are you telling me this?”

“Naturally for the sake of cooperation.”

“Cooperate?” Yin Xu blinked his eyes, then laughed and asked: “Third Prince is a prince of Tian Xiang, I am just a small villager, where did your cooperation come from?”

Teng Yu stared into his eyes and asked: “You are willing to spend your life as a villager who has a family that cannot be returned?”

“Home?” This humble one’s home is at the Huo Family Villa in An County, so you can return whenever you want. “

Teng Yu laughed, “Really? From what I know, your Huo Family Villa is still a property that belongs to the Huo Family.

“…” Yin Xu was dumbstruck, he truly did not know what to do, he had thought that the Huo Family s were to compensate him with the property, and had only lent him the place to stay, it seemed that he had to instruct the butler to not repair the house, so that he would not waste his money.

“Don’t think too much into it. I’m just trying to get what I need from each of you.”

Yin Xu straightened his attitude and asked seriously: “Do you know what I want?”

Teng Yu retorted: “Could it be that you don’t know what I want?”

“…” The two of them looked at each other for a moment before laughing at the same time.

Teng Yu’s previous probing wasn’t for nothing. He had said before that he and Huo Tian were very similar, that the two people who were in the same situation, either walked on the opposite path, or walked the same path.

And the facts proved that Huo Tian and him belonged to the latter.

Yin Xu placed his hands behind his head and kicked him, ridiculing him, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell the First Prince about your abnormality?”

Teng Yu felt his calves go numb, and a cool sensation seeped into his skin through the thin piece of cotton. He suppressed the abnormality in his heart and asked, “Do you think he would believe you?”

Yin Xu made sense when he thought about it. In the eyes of the First Prince, he was just a piece of trash.

Although outsiders were always kind and courteous to the First Prince, Yin Xu was an old devil who had lived for a thousand years.

Thinking about this Third Prince beside him, Yin Xu couldn’t help but sigh with emotion: This emperor’s family really brought out talents who didn’t seem to be the same!

Seeing him not speaking for a long time, Teng Yu thought he was hesitating, and reminded him: “Huo Tian, it’s not that I don’t want you to, but there are a lot of disciples from the side branches that want to rise above the masses in terms of Huo Family.”

It was Yin Xu’s first time hearing someone call his name, so he was not used to it. Fortunately, he did not mind this, so he waved his hands and said: “Alright, I’ll think about it.”

Honestly speaking, Teng Yu’s suggestion had moved his heart. He had no one at hand right now, and with the help of Third Prince, it would be much more convenient for him to do anything.

He wanted to obtain the Soul Gathering Pearl from the Empress Liu, so Teng Yu wanting to revive his mother was essentially a contradiction.

Whether or not this conflict could be resolved was still unknown, so Yin Xu did not immediately agree.

If the two of them were to continue working together because of this pearl, any cooperation would just be talk.

“It’s late at night. Let’s go to sleep. We’ve been waiting for so many years, there’s no need to be in such a hurry.”

Yin Xu nodded his head and slept with his back facing Teng Yu.

Teng Yu stared at his back speechlessly, did this man really treat him like thin air? How can there be such a righteous person who only enjoys the luxury of not paying anything?

He turned his body with his back facing Yin Xu, yet his back was stiffened, not forgetting to be on guard at all times.

The first time he exposed his back in front of a stranger was when he was sleeping.

But he overestimated his vigilance, and actually fell asleep not long after. Even when Yin Xu approached him at night, he only opened his eyes in a daze, and with a glance, he hugged the person who begged for warmth.

Seeing that the lights had gone out, the First Prince put down his brush and threw the copy of the scripture to the side. He then turned to the corner and ordered, “Bring them.”

Not long after, a young man dressed as a guard was thrown onto the ground after being carried in. He was jolted awake after a cup of cold water was poured into his mouth.

Seeing his predicament, that person knelt at the First Prince’s feet and said with his head lowered, “Greetings, Your Highness.”

“Un, tell me, what has Third Prince been doing these past few days? It’s fine, what is he doing in this freezing Riverside County? “

“In reply to Your Highness, I don’t know where Third Prince heard that you came to Riverside County to search for the Emperor’s treasure, but he hurriedly ordered people to pack up their belongings and chased after you. In order to prevent you from getting ahead, we even travelled for a few nights.”

“Oh? So that’s how it is, I thought… Forget it, he will not be able to see my good intentions. Go back and continue to observe every single move of the Third Prince, I will not treat you unfairly in the future. “

“Thank you, Your Highness.” The guard thanked him profusely and left.

“I even thought that he had grown up and knew how to go look for outside help with his Liu Family. I didn’t think that he would still be so naive.” The First Prince shook his head and sighed.

“After all, I grew up being pampered. It won’t be that easy to improve myself.”

The First Prince nodded in agreement. “Let’s not talk about him anymore. The fourth prince isn’t back yet?”

“Yes, your subordinate sent people into the city to search for you, but they couldn’t find you.”

“Are you dead or alive?” The First Prince frowned. He could not understand who would dare to go against him in this small Riverside County.

“Yes, the county magistrate has heard about it. In the past two days, no corpse was found as old as A’Si.”

“Send more people. If you don’t find out why, I will not be able to rest easy.”

“Yes.”
