Chapter 554 “Digging His Own Grave (1)”
The Demon Realm doesn’t differentiate between night and day, therefore its always red as a result of the blood moon hanging in the sky.
Outside the White Moon Palace, two guards were in charge of guarding the gates when one of them noticed Di Cang’s figure slowly closing in from the front.
“Sire,” the one speaking raises a blocking hand in spite of his dreaded back being covered in cold sweat.
Though the overbearing king stopped in his tracks at the sudden intervention, he nevertheless asked anyways and didn’t explode: “Why are you stopping me?”
“This…” The guard instinctively wipes his forehead using the free hand like it would help calm his nerves: “The Queen’s order, no one is to disturb during her rest, including you Sire.”
Going black in the face over that answer, This woman… she’s using my original order to deal with me?
“Move!” A burst of power explodes out of Di Cang’s body, shrouding his entire existence in an oppressive aura.
“Sire…” The poor guards were so scared now that their legs were shaking, “Your order from before. Whatever the Queen’s order must be taken precedent over your command. Those are your exact words. Please ste-step bac-back, we are only following your orders…..”
Talking about fuming at this point: “I will say it for the last time, MOVE!”
Bump!
Taking to their knees, the two poor guards were looking deathly pale by this stage and wished their life weren’t so unfortunate.
“Sire, we really can’t move.”
Poor souls, they’re going to lose no matter the choices today. If they do move its going against the original order, and if they don’t move then its going against the current order. No matter what, it’s still going to infuriate their lord and master right in front.
“Good, very good!”Making a cracking sound with his fist now, Di Cang was twitching in that mouth due to the extreme rage coursing through his veins. However, despite all this threat and intimidation, the overbearing man didn’t act.
In the next moment, that purplish figure was gone and out of sight.
“This… is Sire, is he gone?” One of the braver guards looks up, unsure what to do next because his legs were still too numb to stand.
The other guard also trembling still: “I think so… but I doubt His Majesty would ignore what we’ve done just now. He did say the Queen’s word must be prioritized, but at this rate I have a feeling things aren’t going to last long if the situation continues to turn out like this….”
Seriously, who in the right mind would expect the future queen of this land to make such a order on the first day!
……
On the soft couch, the occupant was currently resting comfortably on the side when a hand suddenly reached over to pull her into an embrace. Though the warmth and sensation were all too familiar, it still caused the woman to jerk open those eyes in annoyance.
“How did you get in?” Bai Yan asked, “Didn’t I say that none is to bother me?”
Naturally Di Cang’s face would go black again after that question. Licking his dry and hurt lip, he gently moves that finger across the silk dress like it’s a fine treasure: “
“So the right I gave you is to be used against me like this?” Those eyes squinting, making his enchanting contour especially scary: “Do you know I had to crawl through the dog hole in the wall in order to get inside my own home?”
Damn it, I’m the ruler of the Demon Realm and still have to crawl through a dog hole just to get inside, isn’t that too shameful? And my own palace of all places!
