375: Chapter 375 Returning to Kyoto, Meeting the Witch of Desire (Part 2)

Shame! Fury!! Hatred!!!

Beneath the quilt, Dantai Qingyue's exquisite and graceful body trembled violently.

In her opened, cold, and beautiful eyes, extreme fury swirled!

She had actually regained consciousness earlier.

She had been feigning unconsciousness, not out of any concern for hurting Qin Ge.

Nor was it because she had accepted reality and chosen to silently swallow this grievance.

It was because she was currently completely naked, and her dress had been placed by Qin Ge on the windowsill far away.

She truly had no way to attack Qin Ge while stark naked.

She could only endure until now.

Whoosh —

With a wave of her hand, Dantai Qingyue donned a simple dress, which clung perfectly to her graceful and curvaceous figure.

Looking out the window, Dantai Qingyue gritted her teeth, white as shells, and said in a rage, her body trembling uncontrollably, "Desire Demoness, you deserve to die!"

"Qin Ge, you must pay the price as well!!"

Just as Dantai Qingyue arrived in the living room, ready to pursue Qin Ge, a passage formed by the light of doom opened. Ruan Xingrou rushed out from the passage. Seeing her Revered Master's angry expression, she said in surprise, "Revered Master, why are you here!?"

"Never mind that, Master, come with me to the Doomsday World quickly."

"The Demon Race over there is in turmoil!"

"The Demon Race hiding everywhere has suddenly erupted; it is even more critical than the zombie crisis!"

Without giving Dantai Qingyue a chance to refuse, Ruan Xingrou pulled her into the passage and closed the cross-world passage.

...

On the other side, in the Capital, inside the Old Man Li family's courtyard.

The Desire Demoness, now dressed in gardener's clothes, petite in stature, held large shears, pruning the overgrown vines in the flower bed.

Snap —

Snap —

The Desire Demoness cut the vines with force, gritting her teeth in hatred, "Qin Ge! You just wait!"

"It was you who caused me to be backlashed by the Doomsday World, causing my magic power to plummet!"

"It was also you who forced Luo Chen to expose my location, allowing me to be injured by Dantai Qingyue and the other two, adding injury to injury."

"And it was you who caused me to use a forbidden technique on Blue Star, sealing away all my Devilish Qi!"

"Right now, I truly cannot do anything to you."

"However, in the near future, I will make you taste the despair and pain of being betrayed by those closest to you!"

Even after suffering the backlash of the world's consciousness, the Desire Demoness still possessed bewitching methods to blend in among the gardeners of the Li family in the Capital.

It was just a pity that she had caught a fleeting glimpse of Old Man Li.

Even that peripheral glance caused Old Man Li to turn back and scan her with heavy scrutiny.

If not for the fact that Old Man Li had no cultivation.

If not for the fact that she was currently suffering from the backlash, her form having become petite.

She would have almost suspected that that old geezer had recognized her!

Fortunately, that old geezer didn't say anything more!

The Desire Demoness made a fierce decision in her heart.

Even if it was a protracted war, she would not easily be discouraged.

Sooner or later, there would come a day when she would dismantle the monstrous background behind Qin Ge from his rear.

Subsequently, she would make Qin Ge taste the despair of betrayal by his closest kin.

She wanted Qin Ge to know the consequences of offending her, This Demoness!

"Young Master Qin is back!"

"Quick — quickly notify the old Master!"

"Young Master Qin is back!"

"Young Miss Junwan's child is back!"

Suddenly, the Old Butler's joyful voice rang out within the courtyard.

Immediately after, servants from every corner of the courtyard scrambled out, eager to catch a glimpse of Young Master Qin's demeanor.

Pushed about by the crowd, the Desire Demoness frowned suspiciously, "Qin Ge?"

"How could this guy suddenly return at this time!?"

"Could it be that my infiltration of the Li family has been discovered by him?"

"Impossible!"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

"Right now, even if Dantai Qingyue, the guardian of Blue Star, were here, she couldn't possibly discover my identity!"

After all, she was currently a Muggle with no magic power.

Who could have imagined that she, the Desire Demoness, would have no magic power?

And that her figure and appearance had undergone such earth-shattering changes compared to before?

Soon, the grey-haired Old Master Li, leaning on a cane, came to the front courtyard, supported by the Old Butler.

His cloudy eyes looked dimly toward the front gate.

As Qin Ge, wearing a crisp suit and possessing an extraordinary appearance, walked grandly through the threshold of the Li family.

A flash of brilliance erupted in Old Master Li's cloudy eyes, though it vanished in an instant.

"Resemblance!"

"Too much like him!"

"It's Junwan's child!"

Crystal tears shimmered in Old Master Li's cloudy eyes.

Even though he had seen photos and videos of Qin Ge countless times, seeing his grandson in the flesh standing before him at this moment.

Old Master Li still couldn't control his body from trembling slightly.

He, who had long since ceased to wear his emotions on his sleeve, still revealed a look of being moved the moment he saw Qin Ge.

Old Master Li struck the ground heavily with his cane, making a dull sound. Looking at Qin Ge, he pretended to be angry and said, "You brat, you finally know to come back and see this old bag of bones!"

Qin Ge stepped forward quickly, took over supporting the Old Master from the Old Butler, and said with a wry smile, "Grandpa, you know I've been busy lately. As soon as I had some free time, didn't I immediately rush back to see you?"

The Old Master kept a straight face, "You brat, using sweet talk, do you think I'm one of those naive little girls you have around you?"

Beside them, seeing this, the Old Butler urged hurriedly, "Quick! Quickly prepare some fruit and send it to the reception room!"

Looking at Qin Ge's face, which was exceptionally similar to their Young Miss's, the Old Butler felt indescribable emotion and surprise.

He urged the servants repeatedly.

The Old Master turned back and shouted unhappily, "Are you getting senile in your old age? What reception room? They are family, why go to the reception room for guests?"

"Go to my room!"

Watching Qin Ge support Old Master Li as they walked toward the backyard, the Desire Demoness put the pruning shears behind her back, frowned suspiciously, and muttered to herself, "Qin Ge, ever since he entered the Li family, hasn't even looked at me directly, nor did he give me a sideways glance."

"It's as if I'm a transparent person."

"It doesn't look like he discovered my identity."

"Then why, of all times, did Qin Ge have to return just when I infiltrated the Li family?"

"If it's not because of my identity, then it must be because of the Fusion of other worlds?"

"No, I must go over and eavesdrop!"

"This Blue Star will soon submit to the feet of This Demoness."

"Any clue cannot escape the control of This Demoness!"

"Other worlds are no exception!"

In the backyard, the Old Master's residence.

The Desire Demoness was concentrating on pruning the bonsai branches.

Her ears were practically perked up to eavesdrop.

Someone came to stop her, but under the Desire Demoness's bewitchment, they turned and left in a daze.

Not until they retreated from the courtyard where the Old Master was did they come to their senses, forgetting why they had appeared there.

"Grandpa, you should be aware of those islands that have appeared inexplicably on Blue Star recently, right?"

Qin Ge said with a serious expression, "The vast majority of people on those islands are Cultivators of a higher level than the ancient martial arts system!"

"It is better not to provoke them if possible!"

"Ordinary thermal weapons can no longer affect them!"

The Old Master shook his head, "It's no longer a question of choosing whether to provoke them or not; even the Hidden Sects are now in turmoil."

"Because of the appearance of those islands, the depleted Spiritual Qi on Blue Star is showing signs of recovery."

"The older generation of the Hidden Sects, who were originally trapped and unable to achieve a Breakthrough in their lifetime, are breaking through one after another."

"I'm afraid they are no longer content to stay in their Sects and want to enter the world."

Qin Ge said in a low voice, "Is there a solution?"

The Old Master sighed deeply, "A fight to the death, and reshaping the universe."

"If we had the help of Dantai Qingyue from the Bright Moon Sect, we might be able to continue suppressing them."

There was no help for it; the Old Master had never thought that in his lifetime, he would encounter the anomaly of Spiritual Qi recovery.

His previous decision had suppressed the Hidden Sects too harshly.

He had thought that if these guys didn't listen, he would just round them all up.

Who would have thought that the current Spiritual Qi recovery would actually cause those suppressed Hidden Sects to lose control?

However, even so, the Old Master had a way to solve it.

It was just that the cost would be a bit too high.

Of course, if there were help from the Bright Moon Sect, the loss would be minimized.

"Dantai Qingyue?"

Even Qin Ge couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly upon hearing this.

If it were earlier, using a favor to get Dantai Qingyue to come forward would be reasonable.

But now, he had arranged for Ruan Xingrou and his seven Senior Sisters to temporarily 'trap' Dantai Qingyue in the Doomsday World.

Even after releasing Dantai Qingyue, what she would need to deal with was not the trouble of the Hidden Sects.

But him, the lecher who had ruined her purity!

"Let's use Deterrence."

Qin Ge exhaled a turbid breath and looked at the Old Master, saying with amusement, "I will help with the Deterrence."

Since Dantai Qingyue couldn't be counted on, he had no choice but to handle it himself.

The Old Master picked up his teacup and took a light sip, "This tiger is no longer the sickly one from before; it has become vigorous again, and even more ferocious than in its Peak period."

Qin Ge nodded, "No choice, this is all we can do for now."

"I'll stay at home for a while and won't run around."

"It's just that in terms of daily life, I lack someone to take care of me."

The Old Master smiled and said, "In your own home, are you afraid of lacking manpower?"

He turned his head, looked at the Desire Demoness pruning flowers in the courtyard, and beckoned.

The Desire Demoness stopped her pruning, pointed at her own nose with one finger, tilted her head, and asked in confusion, "Me?"

The Old Master nodded, revealing a kind smile, and said, "Come over."

The Desire Demoness's eyes revealed a clear stupidity; she walked forward slowly, entered the room, came before the Old Master, and asked in confusion, "Old Master, are you looking for me?"

The Old Master nodded, "Little girl, what is your name?"

Name?

The Desire Demoness wandered in her thoughts.

It had been so many years.

She couldn't remember her real name.

She only knew that her subordinates addressed her as This Demoness! The now-destroyed Magic World respectfully referred to her as the Desire Demoness.

However, in front of the Old Master, the Desire Demoness dared not hesitate.

The Desire Demoness scanned the Old Master and Qin Ge, performed a panicked expression, stuttered, and whispered, "Answering the Old Master, my name is Yun Qing!"

The Old Master nodded with a light smile, "Where do you live?"

The Desire Demoness lowered her little head, "I rented a house outside. I'm from out of town, here in the Capital to work, I only arrived a few days ago."

The Old Master glanced lightly at Qin Ge, his heart becoming clearer.

"Are you willing to stay by my grandson's side and take care of him for a few days?"

"From now on, you will live in the Li family. Even if Qin Ge leaves, you will continue to live in the room arranged for you."

The Old Master looked at the Desire Demoness, asking softly, waiting for an answer.

The Desire Demoness nodded repeatedly, "I am willing! Yun Qing is willing to stay by Young Master's side and take care of Young Master's daily life!"

The Desire Demoness was overjoyed.

She couldn't have asked for more!

She was just worrying about not having a chance to get close to Qin Ge.

Who would have thought that this old geezer in front of her would deliberately arrange her to be by Qin Ge's side to take care of him!?

Just take this opportunity to figure out Qin Ge's preferences and weaknesses.

Once her magic power recovers, she would target Qin Ge's weaknesses and defeat him in one fell swoop.

Make Qin Ge taste the bitterness of failure and the pain of being betrayed by those closest to him!

Qin Ge raised his eyes, stared at the Desire Demoness before him—delicate face, bright and spirited big eyes, petite figure, and plain appearance—and said softly, "Do you need to go back and report to your family?"

The Desire Demoness shook her head, "No need, I came to the Capital alone, and I don't have any family."

Qin Ge said with surprise, "An orphan?"

The Desire Demoness pursed her lips, feigned a delicate and pitiful posture, and nodded.

"Grandpa, then I'll go get familiar with the environment and let Yunmiao help me clean up the room."

Qin Ge stood up, looked at the Old Master, said this, and then dragged the Desire Demoness's smooth little hand and left the room.

Watching the backs of Qin Ge and Yun Qing, the Old Master shook his head with amusement.

As soon as he entered the room, he started talking about the inexplicably appearing islands and the Hidden Sects.

But he remained silent about the Doomsday World and the missing Desire Demoness.

And Qin Ge, who had never returned home, came straight back and stated he wanted to stay for a period of time, and even deliberately reminded him that he needed someone to take care of him daily.

He was even afraid that he wouldn't understand.

He deliberately interrogated Yunmiao's background.

"This little guy!"

"The old man is just old, not senile; was there a need to emphasize it in every possible way?"

"Afraid that the old man doesn't know the identity of the Desire Demoness, but isn't he afraid that the Desire Demoness might also notice something?"

"I'm old!"

The Old Master sighed deeply. While lamenting his old age, his eyes couldn't suppress the satisfied joy, "Even my grandson is afraid that the old man is senile."

"However, even if I am a bit old, this old bag of bones can still help a little."
