Chapter 693: Chapter 693: Have You Abandoned Your Little Princess?
"Want to die? It’s not that easy. What, have you Demon Clan given up? Are you abandoning your little princess?"
"What exactly do you want to do?!"
Zuo Yan would occasionally steer the conversation towards Wen Xiao’ai, raising suspicion in Ye Qi, who already knew Wen Xiao’ai’s true identity.
The desire to die was rekindled as a survival instinct.
Could it be that the Demon Clan has discovered Xiao’ai’s soul is Shang Ying Immortal’s?
Seeing Ye Qi already growing suspicious, Zuo Yan’s goal was achieved, so he deliberately refrained from explaining further.
Now was not the time; if he could, he would personally kill Nie Jiuque, but just in case, he still had to keep a backup plan.
And this backup plan naturally involved the Demon Realm and Immortal Realm, and possibly even the Netherworld.
He wanted to escalate the situation, making it beyond Nie Jiuque’s control, until no one could manage it, until... everyone would have a bad ending.
Zuo Yan timely shifted the topic, which further convinced Ye Qi that there was something fishy going on.
"When you mentioned the innocent souls, were you referring to your brother? Or your clansmen?" Zuo Yan ruthlessly stabbed at Ye Qi’s sore spot again.
"Zuo! Yan!"
At the mention of his brother, who was born two months ago and whom he hadn’t even met, Ye Qi’s heart twisted in pain, his chest hurt, and he trembled with anger.
Eight months ago, his mother went with his father to stay long-term at a close friend’s place, unaware of being four months pregnant.
Upon discovering her pregnancy, his father’s friend’s wife insisted his mother stay there to nurture her fetus.
Because the friend’s residence had abundant spiritual energy and a great environment, his parents agreed to stay there to nurture the fetus.
Upon learning this news, he visited his parents several times, eagerly anticipating his brother’s birth.
Six months ago, he left for the Immortal Realm to study, unaware that his mother had given birth a month early.
His parents, fearing it would hinder his studies, didn’t inform him of the premature birth, and they remained at the friend’s place, not returning to the Demon Clan immediately.
When he returned to the Demon Clan and learned of this, he wanted to bring Wen Xiao’ai along to fetch his parents back, but Wen Xiao’ai was nowhere to be found.
He searched throughout the entire Demon Realm but couldn’t find a trace of Wen Xiao’ai, and at that time, the Demon Clan launched an attack...
Initially assuming they were just stirring trouble for fun, they came with a fierce wave, killing every person they encountered.
Not only did the Cat Demon Clan suffer, but also the Bird, Fox, and Snake Clans were affected.
Fortunately, they came quickly and left quickly, and we thought it was over, but before we could recover, the Demon Clan attacked again, this time with Zuo Yan leading personally...
The entire Cat Demon Clan was devastated.
He and his two-month-old brother, whom he had yet to meet, were forever separated by life and death.
Zuo Yan noticed Ye Qi’s agitation, and subconsciously tightened his grip on Ye Qi’s neck.
"Who are the innocent, and who are the deserving? Tell me?" Zuo Yan’s sarcastic questioning sounded, perhaps piercing some corner of Zuo Yan’s heart, as he increased pressure on Ye Qi’s neck, his face turned monstrous.
If it weren’t for being unable to kill him now, he might very well strangle Ye Qi to death on the spot.
"..." Due to difficulty in breathing, Ye Qi’s pale face gradually reddened, his already muddled brain ached even more.
"Speak! Who deserves to die?! Who doesn’t?!"
"..."
