Chapter 410: Yu Jing, Killed Him

"What is it you want?"

Sending me quite a defiant stare filled with disgust, Yu Lan clenched her fist in anger. It was as if she thought I would go against Aiza, just for a simple request.

"What can you even off me? I save your daughter, while plausible, would not benefit me in the least. Not even Tian Wang, the Current celestial king, has enough resources to go against her."

"it is not what they have but what I have and what you want. I am quite proficient in these games, boy."

"Not to toot my own horn, but I am quite older than you, and Aiza," I softly said, quite a little offended at her calling me boy. I think that part of my life is over. " Please call me Abaddon, but you are indeed correct. What I want is simple, I want half of this kingdom's coin."

Dropping her mouth, I could not help record the rather enjoyable oval of her mouth. Nodding at my greatness, I smiled, "it's not that much, is it?"

"Fine," Said Yu Lan rather sharply to my surprise with a smile that sent a chill down my spine, "Then she will be your fiance from now on. It's the only logical way of handing you half of my wealth while adding you into the royal family."

"I have zero interest in marrying your daughter, and I will not be taking a second wife," I coldly uttered, leaving no room for discussion, "But I do like the idea of angering both your daughter and Aiza. Plus, this could piss my wife off quite a bit; she has been such a succubus lately."

"So, do we have a deal?"

"Depends,"

"On what?" Said Yu Lan.

"On if you can actually make that call." I coldly stated, not particularly amused. "You are not truly a queen. Tien Wang or Tang Feng would never allow that. So this leaves me to believe you are from Tien Wang's wife's house. You are but a simply acting sovereign who runs this city. I believe they simply turn a blind eye to your activity because you are Tien Wang's sister in law? Am I wrong?"

"But what does that have to do with you getting what you want?" Said Yu Lan in a strained manner, that she tried to hide behind a confident smile, betrayed by the cracks in her tone.

"It's simple. I do not want your daughter to be my fiance but instead you. Yu Jing holds zero importance, aside from being a puppet for Aiza. While her standing in this land is all but ruined due to her cold bitchy nature. What it is I want is you, dearie.

Trembling, Yu Lan backed away as I approached, cutting the distance between us enough I could feel her breath upon my lips.

"You!"

"Indeed I, " I devilishly uttered, placing my finger just at the tip of her chin, allowing her to see into my deep smoldering eyes, I continued, " You are the one who holds all the power, and it's you who I want to have half of. That is the deal."

"I have already been sullied and married," she uttered with a hint of dread, weighing the pros and cons. After all, from what I have seen, these people are very traditional. Virginity and marriage are quite sacred, even if it's a matter of obligation.

Rolling my eyes, I smirked, without care, "And? It's not like I will be actually touching you unless you and my wife come to an agreement, as, for your husband, I was under the impression your daughter killed him."

Trembling, Yu Lan paled all of a sudden. Scrunching my brow, I soon hummed in realization. The little devil of a daughter never said anything about her killing her father. Oh, the sweet drama.

Yu Lan, seemingly devastated, shuddered in my presence, falling to her knees with large globs of tears within her eyes.

"I-I-I thought it was Aiza's doing," She faintly moaned, dripping blood from the corner of her lips.

And just like a that a devil's heart is formed, I wonder what I will do? Have her kill her own daughter? or actually save her? Life sure is so full of choices.

Sending a devilish chuckle that resounded in the air, I hummed a small tone, "So what will it be, Yu Lan. Your time is running short. Aiza has a target on you. However, with my identity, I am sure she will stay her hand with me, at your side, giving us just enough time to help your... daughter.

Glancing up at me, in a bit of heartbreak, I could feel the power of a god flooding into me as her devil's heart began to scream with joy. Love breeds hate, and Yu Lan being a god is no different.

"Help her," She muttered, with self-doubt, to my amusement.

"Than a deal has been struck, shall we make a deal with the heavens?" I voiced, knowing everything was in my hands at this point.

"I, Yu Lan, swear by the heavens—

"I, Abaddon Snow, swear by the heavens, "I uttered alongside the Queen in tears.

"to offer Abaddon Snow half of what I have in marriage should he decide to help my daughter, Yu Jing."

"To help, Yu Jing, form out from under Aiza, and show her the error of her ways."

Grinning from ear to ear, I turned to leave as the mournful cries of a mother echoed through my skull.

"I shall await for your announcement, my dare fiance." I sharply expressed, leaving with the shadow of a devilish grin.

By the time I arrived at my hotel, it was currently the dead of the night within the City of Caisa. Stretching my arms wide, I entered the lobby of my hotel with a weary yawn, heading straight up with the help of the elevator. I approached my door that opened by itself.

Knowing it was Lilith's doing, I lifted my lips into an Arch as the heavy scent of familiarity traced over the tip of my nose.

"Did Lili do good?" Said the voice of my very darling wife from the shadows as she pulled me in, shutting the door with a bewitching smile that took my breath away.

"Are they in any way damaged?" I patiently asked, knowing that was the most important subject.

"I reverse the time on their bodies, making it, so they were never harmed in the first place." Said Lilith cheerfully, with anticipation beaming from her amethyst eyes.

"You did well, very well, "I softly whispered, blessing her with some head pats, "So well, I will show you how to peel a human alive."
