The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
58. The Celestial Emperor and the Demon Emperor

"You ... Demon Emperor!"

Xie Ran was stunned to hear that. Spontaneously he glanced at Qu Xuanzi, not least the two dragons staring at him in disbelief.

Demon Emperor? Qu Xuanzi's? Is the Azure Dragon joking?

Xie Ran ventured to speak, "He...."

"The Azure Dragon is unstable and traumatized." Qu Xuanzi told the Azure Dragon's condition then looked at Xie Ran. "Nothing to worry about."

Xie Ran nodded obediently and did not ask any more about his identity. But it was different from the two dragons who started to break out in cold sweat.

"How do you cure it?" Xie Ran asked about the Azure Dragon.

"He'll be self-conscious."

Xie Ran did not say anything anymore. His brain is still trying to digest the truth. He had had many hypotheses against Qu Xuanzi, but had no idea which one was right. Nor did he expect Qu Xuanzi to be honest. Xie Ran understood, whatever his identity was, it would be extremely dangerous - just like Qu Xuanzi had said before.

After a long while, the Azure Dragon finally calmed down and lowered its head deeply. Xie Ran was curious and approached him right at the barrier border. He crouched down looking at the poor Azure Dragon who was cowering.

"You okay?"

The Azure Dragon did not reply, it remained lowered.

"That is the limiter of nature, the sound from the outside will not go inside and give him tranquility." Qu Xuanzi explained briefly. The current Azure Dragon did indeed need some calm after experiencing a heavy trauma.

Xie Ran stood up and crossed his chest. He went back to Qu Xuanzi. "Will he stay there?"

"At least until it is conscious or it will be very dangerous."

Xie Ran did not know how to handle it anymore and could only nod. The sky was already bright now, but the Azure Dragon was still unconscious. He also had to prepare for Ye City today. If the Azure Dragon had not been conscious as well, he was forced to abandon it.

A few minutes after, the Azure Dragon's clear eyes returned to normal and he looked dazed. Looking at his human hand and feeling the air after a long time, his heart was surged full of happiness.

Realizing he was inside the barrier of nature, he immediately woke up and saw the figure of the girl crouching down while eating snacks and playing the glass crystal - the world's mobile phone.

Then his gaze was directed at Qu Xuanzi who was standing while leaning back watching Xie Ran. The Azure Dragon's eyes sparkled instantly.

"Your Majesty!" The Azure Dragon was about to run over, but blocked the barrier of nature until his body slammed and fell.

Xie Ran looked at him stupidly. Are all saint beasts so stupid and careless as the Azure Dragon and Ann Rou?

The Azure Dragon bounced back and stood right at the border of the dividing wall. "Your Majesty, you're back. Honey, be happy."

Qu Xuanzi looked at him flatly then removed the natural barrier letting the Azure Dragon approach him and stopped at exactly 2 meters away.

Then the gaze of the Azure Dragon was directed at Xie Ran who was still chewing. Why would his master along with a stupid looking little girl eat that snack?

While Xie Ran was stunned to see such a spirited Azure Dragon. Why 'Your Majesty' again? Was he also Ann Rou's plotter? But he was an Azure Dragon on the side of the Celestial Emperor!

Holdin' a....

Sky Emperor?

Xie Ran turned his head towards Qu Xuanzi with a look of disbelief. "Xuanzi, you...." Xie Ran was at a loss for words with a wrinkled forehead. This swindler!

"I didn't fool you. Don't act like you're being deceived." Qu Xuanzi noticed Xie Ran's reaction and looked at him casually. He knew this would happen after the Azure Dragon awoke.

"It's not like that... If you're the Celestial Emperor, then... Isn't there a Demon Emperor as well?" Xie Ran was still concerned about the most important thing. Forget how he laughed at Qu Xuanzi acting as the previous Celestial Emperor. He doesn't want to remember.

"The Demon Emperor has risen?" The Azure Dragon was surprised but did not dare to look at Qu Xuanzi but rather looked at Xie Ran.

"Don't look at him like that!" Qu Xuanzi recalled making the Azure Dragon spontaneously bow. What is his master's relationship with this little girl?

Then Qu Xuanzi looked at Xie Ran deeply. "It's just a legend that humans say. In reality, the Demon Emperor had already appeared a long time ago."

"But isn't the Demon Emperor still looking for a suitable body?"

It took Qu Xuanzi a while to answer. "Now there is."

The Azure Dragon looked anxious. "Your Majesty, you-"

"I'll leave tomorrow," said Qu Xuanzi looking at the Azure Dragon at a glance then returning to Xie Ran. "I'll leave Ann Rou to take care of you."

"Your Majesty, has Ann Rou's tail grown back?" The Azure Dragon was afraid that if Ann Rou's tail had not returned, the cat would continue to look for trouble to vent its anger.

A tail? Again Xie Ran was made dizzy. He knew Ann Rou was a sacred animal, but he did not think that a saint animal could lose its tail.

Looking at Qu Xuanzi who was looking at him sharply, the Azure Dragon swallowed his sentence and took a serious attitude back.

"You don't have to leave Ann Rou. He won't agree either. After all, I already have Xiao Caihong, Long Yun, and Long Huo."

"They can't be human, if you show them now, there'll be a lot of people chasing you."

"Then, wait for Ann Rou's decision." Xie Ran was confident Ann Rou would refuse based on her temperament insisting on pounding Qu Xuanzi. That one cat will cry if left behind.

However, reality does not correspond to expectations. As soon as they came out of the Pendant World and met Ann Rou, there was a clash between the Azure Dragon and the Three-Tailed Ice Cat.

After the Azure Dragon explained her condition reluctantly, Ann Rou originally thought of going with Qu Xuanzi alone and fighting out there with her friends. But when she saw Qu Xuanzi who said that she should stay to protect Xie Ran, Ann Rou's shoulder squeezed instantly.

Ann Rou let out a soft breath. "Alright, Ann Rou will be staying with Miss Xie."

Xie Ran glanced at Qu Xuanzi's flat face and felt that the man had a good mood as all of his subordinates complied with his wishes. The man could be more cunning than he thought. According to him, the man was not the Emperor but rather an indirect bully.

In the end, Xie Ran could only agree as a good subordinate.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

As the two dragons go on a journey while the Azure Dragon and Ann Rou duel elsewhere to vent emotions especially Ann Rou-because the mastermind lost her tail was in plain sight, Xie Ran and Qu Xuanzi were around town looking for a good restaurant for lunch.

Xie Ran was so picky and his mood was erratic now that he was desperate to eat. While Qu Xuanzi only said that he was bored inside the pendant like an undead - even though it was just a contrived reason to be with Xie Ran before leaving.

When he reached the restaurant and was about to enter, he passed Tang Yueha as well as the demonic woman, Tang Zhi. Since when was Tang Zhi here?

As soon as they flashed, Xie Ran originally wanted to ignore. But Tang Zhi's steps stopped as soon as she saw Qu Xuanzi as if knowing her made Xie Ran come to a stop as well.

Exasperated by Tang Zhi's gaze, Xie Ran instantly pulled Qu Xuanzi ignoring that Qu Xuanzi was the Emperor. He was just horrified to see Tang Zhi's gaze. Did Tang Zhi like Qu Xuanzi? Even mothers love this one Emperor! That's what makes Xie Ran goosebumps. It could be that Tang Zhi liked flocking.

Qu Xuanzi just complied with his hands at the pull of this aggressive girl. Seeing Xie Ran take off his grip and sit down with a sour face, Qu Xuanzi came to sit and was about to ask why Xie Ran had suddenly gone berserk.

"Don't ask! I'm hungry!" Xie Ran seemed to know what Qu Xuanzi was trying to say. He ordered a lot of food to vent his anger.

After the food came, he immediately ate it with emotions going up and down between the good food and thought of Tang Zhi.

"Be careful." Just when Qu Xuanzi was warning him to be careful, Xie Ran coughed in choking on food.

"Just you."

Xie Ran clucked bitterly and immediately picked up the food to put into Qu Xuanzi's bowl. When it was about to reach the bowl, Qu Xuanzi's hand stopped it and changed the direction from the bowl to his mouth.

Xie Ran was stunned to see it. This one great master has already changed greatly. Was he really that cold man who had once bullied and forced him to beg to his knees?

"It's delicious." Qu Xuanzi spoke after swallowing his food and looked at Xie Ran who was still speechless.

Xie Ran looked at Qu Xuanzi then looked at the idle chopsticks next to the bowl. "I remember the waiter had prepared two cutlery."

"Different taste."

"really?" Xie Ran took Qu Xuanzi's chopsticks and tried to see the difference with his chopsticks. "Just the same."

"Different." Qu Xuanzi insisted that it was different to the point of making Xie Ran flutter himself. In the end the girl chose to say yes even though she had to.

Xie Ran chose to ignore the man and continued eating, but the presence of some oeang certain made Xie Ran's emotions increase again and eat violently.

"Xiao Ran, can I sit here? There was no empty table left. We know each other, you're not gonna let your friends stand up, are you?" Tang Yueha suddenly appeared like a ghost along with Tang Zhi by her side persuading Xie Ran.

A fella? Suddenly Xie Ran's feelings were not good. He wanted to refuse, but something suddenly flashed past him unable to refuse or agree. He simply quietly let the two Tang clans sit in front of him.

But when they were about to sit down, the legs of the chair to be sat on were broken once they sat down to make them both fall shamefully. Suddenly they became the center of attention until Tang Yueha was eager to disappear right now. It doesn't matter whether his butt hurts or not, the problem is his face!

No one dared to laugh out loud. Everyone hid their laughter-including Xie Ran-because of Tang Zhi's presence. Then, the guard of the restaurant immediately came.

"Who put the broken chair here! Fuck up!" The guard was angry and had the maid change her seat then face the Tang duo with a feeling of guilt. "Dear customers, please forgive our restaurant mistakes. We'll give you compensation."

"Nothing's the second time." Tang Zhi held back the anger in the depths of her heart and remained calm on the surface. He already knew who intentionally damaged the chair, unfortunately he could not fight.

After the new seats came, they sat down safely without falling down. Even so, Xie Ran's laughter did not stop despite being hidden.

Xie Ran glanced at the seemingly normal-looking Qu Xuanzi expressionlessly. Did he do it? Xie Ran was a little surprised to realize that Qu Xuanzi had at least a slight sense of humor. That nice. At least the man wasn't completely boring.

"Xiao Ran, I didn't know you had someone behind you. Why not introduce him to me?" Tang Yueha tried to be polite. For the sake of Tang Zhi's plan, he had to get close to Xie Ran.

Xie Ran glanced at Qu Xuanzi at a glance and smiled 'sweet' at Tang Yueha. "He's someone who doesn't like to be introduced. You can ask him yourself."

Tang Yueha looked at Qu Xuanzi who was so handsome. Suddenly his face met even though Qu Xuanzi was not looking at him. With just that face, he had met until he was almost at a loss for words.

"Young Master, where are you from? I am Tang Yueha, from the Xie Clan. If there was time, Young Master could pay a visit to the Xie Clan at any time. The Xie Clan will be very welcoming to Young Master." Tang Yueha said timidly while squeezing her finger out of nervousness. This man was more charming than Zhong Guofeng.

But alas, there was no response from Qu Xuanzi. Qu Xuanzi would rather see Xie Ran than the two strange women.

"Young Master?" Tang Yueha tried to resuscitate Qu Xuanzi that she was the one talking, not Xie Ran. But it was precisely Qu Xuanzi looking at her sharply and coldly that made Tang Yueha tremble so coldly. He could also see the threatening look as if his head would disappear if he spoke again.

Not only was Tang Yueha shivering, Tang Zhi also felt it despite not showing any expression. Behind it, her red eyes narrowed due to the angle of the raised lips. I don't know what he's thinking.

Xie Ran suddenly stood up finishing his meal. "Senior, Xiao Ran resigned. You guys can eat quietly without Xiao Ran's presence."

Xie Ran and Qu Xuanzi simultaneously left the place. For some reason, Xie Ran felt a bad feeling from the moment he saw them. Tang Zhi was a Devil, he had since felt that the woman kept watching him so much that it made him uneasy. Is it just his feelings? Is it because the fear of that time still exists? Or is there something else?

"Xuanzi, don't you feel like Tang Zhi is planning something?" Xie Ran was agitated. Tang Zhi's gaze towards her had another meaning as if the woman was going to make her the best fall. While his gaze was towards Qu Xuanzi... He can't think about it.

"Tang Zhi was probably one of the accomplices of the demon lord. I also feel familiar."

"You feel that way? His aura changed after a long time of not meeting. What's he got?" Xie Ran was getting curious. If it's something dangerous, he'll be doomed.

"I don't think it's him you should be wary of" Qu Xuanzi said then looked at Xie Ran seriously. "The Seven Demon Kings."

"Do you know where their power is?"

"A person who can become a demon king is not an ordinary demon. They were the creation of the Demon Emperor himself and had led the Underworld for thousands of years."

"You know so much."

"I know more clearly." Qu Xuanzi raised his hand rubbing Xie Ran's hair. "You don't have to think about it. Let me handle them."

"Then ... buar I handle his subordinates." Xie Ran smiled widely making Qu Xuanzi smile too—though faint.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Thereupon, the tournament members, Instructors, and the Dean boarded the horse carriage towards Ye City. Xie Ran was in the same carriage as his six friends.

They were chatting with each other, only Xie Ran who was silently staring at the forest scenery from the window of the carriage. His gaze was expressionless looking at Tianshang City shrinking in the distance as if saying goodbye.

"What are you thinking?"

Xie Ran turned his head to look at Pei Xi who was reprimanding him. "Just think, win or lose maybe I'll travel a long way and not come back."

"Is there a problem?" Zhou Kui who heard it immediately joined in. After winning the tournament, they would automatically pass and return to their respective hometowns. But unfortunately, most of them are unemployed and do not know the purpose of going home.

"I just continued the training outside. After that, I went back to Zichen City...."

"Xiao Ran, take me. Your journey will be boring if done alone." Yan Yao suddenly persuaded after hearing that Xie Ran was going to practice outside.

"You focus on your business, don't interfere!" Xie Ran replied fiercely then sighed. "I shouldn't have spoken."

Xie Ran was silent again along the way without saying anything. It made the others offend Yan Yao who had ruined the atmosphere. Though rarely Xie Ran opens up to the right thing without nonsense.

Some of the carriages of the carriage continued to walk pulled by two horses lined up. Tang Zhi and Tang Yueha were also in one of the carriages without Xie Chen. Apparently the effect that Xie Ran made made Xie Chen really dying.

"Tang Zhi, why did you suddenly approach Xiao Ran? That person has made your son dying and thwarted my efforts to get close to Zhong Guofeng. Even using someone strong to support her, what do you really think?" Tang Yueha still did not think this Devil was willing to do good. The plan that was said to always be unclear made him so upset.

"Xie Chen is dying, it might have something to do with Xie Chen knowing something and putting him in a coma from saying it. I always felt that the boy was familiar." Tang Zhi was still acting mysterious.

"I don't even know what your true purpose is," muttered Tang Yueha massaging her forehead. "I told you already, I don't want to get in touch with Xiao Ran. But you're following."

"I didn't say I was going to follow the boy. I was just wondering what that had to do with that guy."

"You ... recognize the man who was with her at that time?" Tang Yueha asked doubtfully whereas Tang Zhi just smiled making her justify her remark. "Who is he?"

"That's not something a human child like you should know. You just need to establish a good relationship with Xiao Ran. Know the background and everything about it. Don't make my efforts go to waste." Tang Zhi was still calm as she ate the wine available on the table. That guy's... Despite not knowing his real name, he knew a lot about it for thousands of years.

"Then what about your plan? Xiao Ran is my rival, if I get close to him it would be like giving up everything on him." Tang Yueha still disagreed. Why do good to those who want to kill him? What advantage?

"The initial "plan remains. If you are on good terms with Xiao Ran, then your plan and my plan will go smoothly together."

Tang Yueha was stunned after hearing that. Tang Zhi said her plan? Does the devil know about his plans?

Whereas Tang Zhi just looked at him with a meaningful but terrible smile. No one knows what he thinks.
