NEW FATHER: THE EMPRESS APPEARED AT MY DOOR WITH OUR DAUGHTER
Chapter 23: The Threat of Father!
The Mystic Ice Palace Main Hall.
Donghuang Ziyou sat upright on the Ice Phoenix Divine Throne and looked at the subject with a joyful expression.
"Congratulations. I did not expect that after one night, the king of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, Zheng Song, would actually die!”
"That's right. As for his supporter, the Bloodthirsty Demon Lord, he had already left. It seems like he also suffered a miserable fate.”
“This is very helpful Northern Mystical Heaven. I wonder which mighty figure killed them!
…
When he saw the happy atmosphere, a faint smile covered the corner of Donghuang Ziyou's mouth.
The death of Zheng Song and the disappearance of the Bloodthirsty Demon King was indeed a heavy blow to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.
For the Northern Mystical Heaven, this is exciting news.
However, Donghuang Ziyou did not only see this.
He pulled his smile and said firmly,
“Although Zheng Song is dead, the conflict between the Northern Mystical Heaven and the Heavenly Devil Realm is far from over.
"I have decided to send another army until we defeat the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms!"
Song Yan and the others were confused.
"Your Majesty, since the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom has lost its spine and is no longer a threat to our Northern Mystical Heaven, why should we send an army?"
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid people will think that the Northern Mystical Heaven is too war-thirsty if we send troops to the Heavenly Devil Realm again and again!"
There were even some old officials who were initially dissatisfied with Donghuang Ziyou who openly and secretly mocked Donghuang Ziyou for being a war-hungry person.
In the face of their doubts, Donghuang Ziyou said calmly,
“There are two reasons why I decided to send troops again.”
“First, the Celestial Demon Realm is restless. If we do not send our troops to take down the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms at this time, it will definitely make the Demon Clan think that we are too weak.”
“Secondly, I want to take down the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms, but not to kill innocent people. If we let the people of the Celestial Demon Realm fight for the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, I fear that the entire Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom will be handed over to the eternal curse.”
As he spoke, he stood up from the Ice Phoenix Divine Throne and stared at the crowd with one hand behind his back.
"North Mystic Heaven cannot be taken lightly!"
“Destroying the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms means letting the world see the way we do things!”
"Do you have any objections?"
The ministers were made speechless by his sensible words.
They all knelt down and bowed. "Your Majesty is wise!"
Donghuang Ziyou nodded lightly.
Seeing that the troops were about to be sent, he planned to finish government affairs as soon as today and went to see his four daughters.
“Although I am not a good mother, I also work hard to get better!”
At the thought of her children, Donghuang Ziyou revealed a rare gentle expression.
…
South Mystic Heaven, in the backyard of the royal palace.
Two men in luxurious golden clothes were sitting opposite at the crystal glass table.
The person on the left has red hair and green eyes. He was Emperor Qin Cang of the Southern Mystical Heaven.
The man opposite him was wearing a pair of Thousand Feathers Earrings.
This was his ally Kong Qingyu, the Imperial Crown Prince of Heaven Dongyuan.
Both of them raised their glasses and drank a cup of nectar.
Kong Qingyu put down his cup and said, "Sister Qin, have you heard of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom?"
"Of course." Qin Cang nodded without the slightest hesitation. “I wonder what kind of luck Donghuang Ziyou has to actually face such a good thing!”
"That's right." A sinister expression appeared on Kong Qingyu's handsome face. “I thought the Bloodthirsty Demon King would do some stunts. I didn't expect him to just disappear!”
"Then do you know what happened in the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms last night?" Qin Cang had long sent intelligence agents to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.
However, until now, the intelligence apparatus has not found any clues.
Other than the two body parts Zheng Song released to the public, there were no other clues indicating the presence of a suspicious person.
Kong Qingyu shook his head. "Nobody knows what happened last night!"
Qin Cang took a deep breath and sighed. “Forget it, if we want to deal with Donghuang Ziyou, we have to rely on ourselves.”
Kong Qingyu nodded in agreement. "That's right. We let it turn things around last time. Next we must be fully ready.”
Qin Cang nodded. He thinks so too.
Four years ago, he and Kong Qingyu had sent twelve suicide warriors from the pseudo-Emperor Realm with the intention of killing Donghuang Ziyou.
Unexpectedly, this woman actually managed to turn things around.
His cultivation base had not only drastically increased overnight, but he had also returned to the Northern Mystical Heaven and seized the throne.
This matter had always been like a nail in Qin Cang's heart, making him grit his teeth out of hate.
And speaking of the grudge between him and Donghuang Ziyou, it should start from their first meeting six years ago.
Back then, Qin Cang admired Donghuang Ziyou's beauty and tried various ways to propose to her through her father.
However, Donghuang Ziyou disliked him and repeatedly rejected him mercilessly.
Qin Cang could not get it, and as time passed, a seed of hatred was planted in his heart.
Of course, this is only one aspect.
The reason why he had to marry Donghuang Ziyou was because the Southern Mystic Heaven and the Northern Mystic Heaven had similar environments. They are both snowy places.
After Qin Cang inherited the throne, he had always wanted to expand his territory.
His first target was the Northern Mystical Heaven, which was very similar to the Southern Mystical Heaven.
But it didn't happen.
The cruelty of Donghuang Ziyou caused Qin Cang to lose the opportunity to seize the Northern Mystical Heaven at the smallest price.
Thus, he joined the Dongyuan Heaven imperial family to deal with Donghuang Ziyou for revenge.
In order to avoid his plan being revealed, all his plans were carried out in secret.
“Recently, I have secretly contacted the Demon Clan. They will send the Black Eagle War God. After Donghuang Ziyou attacked the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, we will ambush him halfway.”
Qin Cang smiled coldly. “As long as we kill Donghuang Ziyou, our troops can enter and take down the Mystic Ice Palace!”
Kong Qingyu smiled proudly. "okay!"
…
The moon sets in the west.
After having dinner with his daughter, Lin Xuan brought the four girls over for a bath.
Xuan Zhu and the others soaked in the water side by side in a bathtub made of jade.
When Lin Xuan washed their hair and body, the little girls were agitated.
Xuan Zhu would constantly grab water and slap him.
The splash carried the scent of flower petals and various precious herbs.
Xuan Xi and Xuan Han, on the contrary, continued to swing their calves and kick the water in the bathtub into the sky.
The most mischievous person was of course Xuan You.
This little girl was actually swimming in the water like a nine-winged frog, causing the water to splash everywhere.
Since Lin Xuan wanted to bathe them, he was naturally unable to avoid splashing water.
When they saw Lin Xuan was also wet, the little girls were all excited.
“Haha, Dad's hair is wet!”
“I even just wet Dad's arm!”
"It's so fun! So fun!"
"Dad, look, I've become a nine-winged frog!"
Seeing his daughter playing around, Lin Xuan was caught between laughter and tears.
"Don't flush water on me again, or I'll hit you!"
Lin Xuan could only threaten them.
However, this is useless.
Xuan Zhu and the others knew that their father would not actually scold them. He just scares them.
"These little girls are so smart!" Lin Xuan smiled helplessly. If he wanted to deal with them, he really could not use a simple method.
"It's hard for you to take care of the bad boys."
As Lin Xuan racked his brain to deal with these little girls, Donghuang Ziyou's calm voice came from behind.
However, before Lin Xuan could turn around and speak, Xuan Xi, who was facing Donghuang Ziyou, shouted,
“Mother, so much fun when Dad bathed us. Get down and let Daddy bathe you too!”
