Chapter 1565
byYang Kai and Xia Ning Shang stayed safely in the palace.
After the farce in the main hall, everyone knew the intimate relationship between Yang Kai and Shan Qingluo. This made all the strongDemon Raceenvious and jealous, and at the same time, they cursed Yang Kai for having such good luck with women.
In the guest room, Shan Qingluo brought Bi Luo to visit Yang Kai and his senior sister.
Just now there were so many people and eyes, and she didn’t have much to say. Now that she has the opportunity, of course, she has to pour out her heart.
Although Yang Kai had already learned a lot of things from Bi Luo in the Emperor Garden, he didn’t know the details very clearly. After talking with Shan Qingluo for a while, he finally understood that after this female demon strayed into Emperor Chen Star, she really suffered a lot.
She was already extremely beautiful and had a natural charm, and when she came to Emperor Chen Star, her strength was relatively low, so naturally she was targeted by many men with ulterior motives.
If it wasn’t for meeting the Red Moon Lord and being favored by her, taking her as an adopted daughter, Shan Qingluo really couldn’t believe what kind of fate she would have now.
So to a certain extent, she was very grateful to the Red Moon Lord. Moreover, since taking her as an adopted daughter, the Red Moon Lord had placed great importance on her. It could be seen from her status in the Red Moon Territory. People who didn’t know the truth might think that she was a pureDemon Race (monster race).
A human being could hold a high position and weight in the Red Moon Territory, which was inseparable from the cultivation of the Red Moon Lord.
After listening to Shan Qingluo’s account, Yang Kai also felt respect for the Red Moon Lord who he had never met.
“Anyway, my adoptive mother is very kind to me. Moreover, because I refined the origin power of the Heavenly Moon Demon Spider now I can’t be completely regarded as a human being, but I can’t be regarded as aDemon Race (monster race) either.” Shan Qingluo smiled lightly.
“Then what is it？” Yang Kai asked in surprise.
“Well, half-demon. There is such a special group of existences on Emperor Chen Star, but their status is really low, only a little higher than that of humans.”
“Half-demon…” Yang Kai was stunned.
“That’s right. These half-demons are all born from the combination of humans and demons. They are not recognized by humans and not accepted by demons. So their status is rather awkward.” Shan Qingluo casually explained.
“The combination of humans and demons？ On Emperor Chen Star, is this kind of thing allowed？”
“Of course not. Emperor Chen Star is different from other cultivation stars. Here, the demons are the main ones. The demons are supreme. How could they tolerate their blood being contaminated by humans? However, how should I put it? Sometimes two people in love don’t care about the secular vision and the chains of ethics. So there is a special group of “half-demons born.” Shan Qingluo said leisurely: “To be honest, I admire these people very much. For example, that senior Ba He who came here with you… He has experienced these things.”
“You know about Ba He？” Yang Kai’s eyes lit up.
“Well, I didn’t know originally. I only found out after listening to Yu Xiong say something before.”
“Tell me about it. I’m also very curious about that old guy’s affairs.” Yang Kai quickly asked. He heard a lot of rumors about Ba He in Huiyue City. The strength of this old guy is really extraordinary, so naturally Yang Kai cares.”
Shan Qingluo didn’t know much, but the reason why Ba He had been living incognito in Huiyue City for two hundred years, even changing his appearance and hiding his cultivation base, was related to a human woman.
Hundreds of years ago, the old fellow was the number one general under the Red Moon Lord He had and had long since cultivated to the Third-Order Void Returning Realm. Moreover, in terms of the attainment of momentum, no Void Returning Mirror could match him.
For a time, he was in the limelight and was hailed as the number one powerhouse below the Void King Realm on Emperor Chen Star.
He was also the existence in the entire Monster Star who had the greatest hope of advancing to the Void King Realm！ Once he achieved this feat, it would mean that he could be on an equal footing with the Red Moon and become a powerful existence at the Lord level.
But when Ba He was at the height of his glory, he fell in love at first sight with a human woman and was deeply in love at second sight…
The Monster Race had always been excluding of the combination of humans and monsters, let alone a future star like Ba He? The resistance he encountered was naturally greater than anyone else’s, especially the pressure from the Red Moon Lord, which made Ba He even more miserable.
If things really developed like this, with Ba He’s arrogant temper back then, he was very likely to defect from the Monster Race！ At that time, he would surely become a target that everyone shouted at on Emperor Chen Star.
The Red Moon Lord was also extremely headache. Naturally, she doesn’t want to see her most capable general is pushed to such a desperate situation.
Out of the thought of loving talent, she was even ready to accept such a fact and let Ba He combine with that human woman.
After all, although the human and demon races cannot openly combine, some powerful demons like to play with human beauties. This is a very normal thing. Which powerful demon’s mansion doesn’t have a few human beauties as playthings？ It’s just that everyone tacitly understands this and won’t make it public.
As long as Ba He can advance to the Void King Realm, what does it matter if he combines with a human woman?
But before she could make it clear to Ba He, a bloody thing happened.
That human woman actually went berserk and died suddenly at a critical moment of advancing to a small realm…
Ba He, who learned of this news, was disheartened and at the same time extremely angry.
He subconsciously believed that the reason why his beloved woman went berserk must be related to the Red Moon Lord. Perhaps the Lord had secretly done something.
So he made a big fuss in Banyue Mountain, went to the Red Moon’s bedroom, and confronted her face to face.
What exactly happened in the bedroom, no one knows. It’s just that when the Red Moon Lord came out, she announced that Ba He was ungrateful and disobedient, and was killed by her own hands.
Two hundred years have passed since then, and Ba He has been missing without a trace.
Until this time he took the initiative to show up in Huiyue City.
“So it seems… the Red Moon Lord didn’t kill Ba He back then, but let him go？” Yang Kai thought thoughtfully.
“Most likely so.” Shan Qingluo nodded slightly. “My foster mother is a Void King Realm Stage 2 master. If she truly wanted to kill Ba He, Ba He would have surely died and there would be no chance of him still being alive.”
Yang Kai nodded gently.
“Yang Kai…” Shan Qingluo suddenly called out softly.
“Hm？”
“Do you think… that the human woman who went berserk and died suddenly, was it related to my foster mother？”
“How would I know? Something that happened over two hundred years ago. I’m afraid that other than the people involved, no one knows.” Yang Kai smiled faintly. Suddenly seeing the worried expression on Shan Qingluo’s face, his heart moved and he asked in a low voice, “What are you worried about?”
Shan Qingluo slowly shook her head and forced a smile, saying, “It’s nothing. Oh right, you have to be careful of that Mi Tian. I heard that you had a conflict with him in Huiyue City. Mi Tian is an arrogant person. Since you’ve offended him, he definitely won’t let it go easily.”
“Don’t worry, he can’t do anything to me.” Yang Kai smiled proudly.
The two of them talked for a while longer before Shan Qingluo got up and left.
“Junior Brother, what should we do next？” After Shan Qingluo left, Xia Ning Shang asked softly.
“I haven’t thought of it yet.” Yang Kai grinned. The main reason he tried every means to enter the palace was to see how Shan Qingluo was doing. Now that he saw that she was safe and sound and had a respected position, he was naturally relieved.
“Then do you want to take Sister Qingluo away？” Xia Ning Shang asked again.
“I didn’t think so, but it depends on her own intention. Actually, I think it’s better for her to stay here. After all, this is the Monster Star, which is extremely beneficial to her cultivation and future development！”
“En.” Xia Ning Shang nodded slightly.
After hearing about Ba He’s matter, she immediately understood that if Yang Kai really insisted on taking Shan Qingluo away, it would surely be very difficult. Whether the death of the human woman who fell in love with Ba He had anything to do with the Red Moon Lord, no one knew. But if it was really the Red Moon Lord who secretly made a move…
Xia Ning Shang understood why Shan Qingluo showed a worried look just now. She was clearly afraid that Yang Kai would follow in the footsteps of that human woman.
For the future of her adopted daughter, the Red Moon Lord surely wouldn’t mind the death of a human man.
“But since we’re here, of course we have to plunder a batch of unique materials here first.” Yang Kai looked at Xia Ning Shang with a smile. “Senior Sister, I’m afraid I have to rely on your strength for this.”
……
Shan Qingluo left the guest room and then led Bi Luo straight to the Red Moon’s bedroom.
She was valued by the Red Moon and cultivated as the future successor. Naturally, no one dared to stop her when she walked in the palace. All theDemon Race warriors who saw her saluted one after another to show respect.
Arriving outside the imperial bedchamber, Shan Qingluo happened to see a man with a bear’s waist and a tiger’s back, as strong as an iron tower, standing outside the imperial bedchamber, his brows knitted into a ball, his body leaning, as if he was listening intently to something.
“Yu Xiong！” Shan Qingluo walked up and called out.
Hearing the shout, Yu Xiong quickly turned around and put a finger to his lips and shushed.
“What are you doing sneaking around in front of foster mother’s imperial bedchamber? Be careful that foster mother finds out and makes you look good.” Shan Qingluo’s beautiful brows furrowed, and she glared at him and scolded.
“Senior Ba He is being tortured inside. Listen！” Yu Xiong pointed inside, with a gossipy expression on his face.
Shan Qingluo was surprised and listened carefully. Sure enough, she heard a heart-rending scream coming from the imperial bedchamber.
Her face couldn’t help but turn pale, and she asked in a startled voice, “Doesn’t foster mother forgive Senior Ba He？”
Although she had never met Ba He, Ba He’s situation was somewhat similar to hers. If the Red Moon Lord didn’t let go easily in the matter of Ba He, then her future with Yang Kai would also be bleak.
Ba He’s ending, to some extent, was also an example for her to learn from So as soon as she heard the scream that Ba He made when being tortured inside Shan Qingluo became nervous.
She seemed to see the appearance of Yang Kai being tortured in front of foster mother…
“Don’t know. Adoptive mother is always gentle and kind, rarely gets angry. She guides us more than scolds us, and has never punished us either. This time, Senior Ba He is being tortured so miserably. It seems adoptive mother is really angry.” Yu Xiong smacked his lips, his ears stood up like windmills, and he listened even more intently.
Shan Qingluo’s expression changed, and she was even more worried in her heart, secretly thinking about what to say when she saw adoptive mother later.
