Chapter 788 -788: Demon Emperor Forces Marriage

Jiang Fan was momentarily stunned in his heart.

This voice…

The Sea Charm Demon King?

The one in charge of the Demon Race… is actually her?

However.

She sure has a lot of nerve.

Daring to slam the table while her master is speaking?

From inside the tent came the displeased voice of the Sea Charm once again.

“Humans outside, each of you send a representative in.”

“The three noisy ones from earlier.”

“You come in last!”

Li Shangqiu glanced at Jiang Fan from afar.

He shook his head slightly: “Everything about you is fine, except for the fact that too many women around you spoil things.”

Yu Tiandu stifled a laugh and said, “Serves him right.”

“Not only will he get the information last, but what he gets will definitely be the most useless.”

“This is what happens when he takes every pretty woman he sees by his side.”

“Suffering because of it now, huh?”

As such.

The groups outside the tent each sent one person inside.

Those who received the intelligence immediately left in a hurry.

In the end, only Jiang Fan, Yue Mingzhu, and Gong Caiyi were left.

Yue Mingzhu bit her silver teeth lightly: “Who is this bastard?”

“Let me go meet her!”

“How dare she make things so difficult for my husband!”

Jiang Fan saw that there was no one else around, gently patted her hand, and said:

“Don’t be angry.”

“She’s helping me.”

With that, he stepped into the tent.

As soon as he entered.

A figure appeared with long golden wavy hair, a curvaceous upper body, and a fish tail for her lower half. It was the Sea Charm, who immediately stepped forward and bowed deeply.

With a nervous and fearful voice, she said, “Master, please allow me to explain first.”

Jiang Fan waved his hand.

Looking around and confirming no one else was present, he said, “No need, I understand your intent.”

“You intentionally made it appear to outsiders that I angered you, so I would either not get the information or only receive inaccurate intelligence.”

“This way, when I head out with the precise information to find the Hell Beast.”

“They won’t follow me.”

“And the credit will be mine alone to claim.”

The tenseness in the Sea Charm Demon King’s body suddenly released.

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she exhaled slightly and gave a bitter smile:

“If only I had known Master would understand, I wouldn’t have been so on edge all this time.”

Feigning weakness may be a strategy.

But encountering a less intelligent master might have led to a storm of curses at best.

Or at worst, ignorant punishment without trying to discern the truth.

Fortunately, Jiang Fan’s intellect was as sharp as a demon’s.

Without any prior communication, he had grasped her well-meaning intentions instantly.

Jiang Fan said, “You’ve worked hard.”

He walked over to a chair and sat down.

The Sea Charm quickly brought him a cup of hot tea.

She also pulled open her collar, retrieving a hidden parchment, and softly said:

“Master, here is the latest intelligence.”

“One two-hour cycle ago, a destroyed Demon Race scouting party sent back its final report.”

“You must act quickly.”

Even before letting others in earlier.

She had already prepared everything in advance.

Now, without waiting for Jiang Fan to speak, she handed it straight to him.

Jiang Fan nodded slightly, his eyes reflecting thoughtful contemplation.

The Sea Charm was meticulous and clever, thorough in her work, and absolutely loyal to him.

And he still had a portion of the Sky Demon Relic, along with several Bodhi Pills.

If gifted to the Sea Charm, she would have a chance to break through to the Demon Emperor Realm.

However.

If she did break through to the Demon Emperor Realm, the Evil Fate Necklace on her would no longer be able to restrain her.

The uncertainties that might follow forced Jiang Fan to deliberate carefully.

“Master, what’s the matter?”

“Was the long journey tiring?”

“Let me give you a massage.”

The Sea Charm moved behind Jiang Fan, her slender jade-like fingers gently kneading his scalp.

Her movements were tender, her gaze warm.

Jiang Fan closed his eyes and asked, “Sea Charm, have you ever thought about a day when you would be free?”

The Sea Charm’s hands didn’t stop, as she honestly replied, “Of course I’ve thought about it.”

“Who would want to be a slave for their entire life?”

“I also hope to interact with you, Master, like Ling Shu and Concubine Yunxia do, laughing and speaking freely.”

The first part of her answer was within Jiang Fan’s expectations.

The latter part, however, slightly surprised him.

Jiang Fan continued, “If we weren’t bound as master and servant, and I was in danger, would you risk your life to save me, like Ling Shu or Concubine Yunxia?”

The Sea Charm didn’t hesitate, replying, “Yes.”

Jiang Fan was startled: “So certain?”

The Sea Charm’s fingers moved more gently as she said:

“I can’t explain why I’m so sure.”

“But if that day ever came, I would.”

Jiang Fan nodded lightly and asked, “How are Concubine Yunxia and Ling Shu doing?”

The Sea Charm replied, “Concubine Yunxia has been in seclusion, and there’s no news about her.”

“As for Ling Shu, things don’t seem to be going well.”

A trace of concern appeared between her brows.

“I heard some whispers.”

“The Demon Emperor wants to take Ling Shu as his thirty-seventh concubine.”

What?

Jiang Fan’s eyes snapped open.

That pure and refined girl, as fresh as a first love, was to marry the Demon Emperor?

In his ears, it was as if he could hear the gentle and warm voice calling him “Brother” like a spring breeze.

His heart surged with bitterness.

“Is she willing?”

The Sea Charm fell silent.

After a long pause, she managed a bitter smile: “Does the Demon Emperor need her to be willing?”

“If one day the Demon Emperor decided to take me as his concubine, I wouldn’t have a choice either.”

“Even resisting with death wouldn’t be an option.”

“Because the Demon Emperor would take out his wrath on my Mermaid Tribe.”

Jiang Fan clenched his fists tightly.

How much was enough for this Demon Emperor to claim?

Thinking of this.

He no longer hesitated.

He produced a portion of Sky Demon Relic and two Bodhi Pills.

“You know what these are, don’t you?”

The Sea Charm’s delicate body trembled violently as her pupils shrank to needle points:

“Sky Demon Relic?”

Jiang Fan turned around.

He placed the relic into her left hand and the two Bodhi Pills into her right hand.

“Find an opportunity to break through to the Demon Emperor Realm.”

“If you gain your freedom, you don’t need to acknowledge me as your master again.”

“But please stop the Sky Demon Emperor.”

“Don’t let him do as he pleases anymore.”

The Sea Charm was in disbelief.

The opportunity to break through to the Demon Emperor Realm had fallen into her hands just like that.

She prostrated herself on the ground, pressing her palms to her forehead, and bowed deeply, saying:

“If I break through to the Demon Emperor Realm.”

“I swear to protect Ling Shu.”

Jiang Fan nodded: “The other Bodhi Pill, deliver it to Concubine Yunxia for me.”

“Remember, let no one know.”

“No one!”

The Sea Charm’s heart was deeply moved.

Understanding something faintly, she said: “Yes, Master!”

Jiang Fan nodded, then left the tent.

Yue Mingzhu and Gong Caiyi came forward to greet him.

“Husband, that arrogant woman didn’t give you a hard time, did she?”

Jiang Fan sighed and said, “She didn’t give me any information.”

“And she asked that you two not bother her either.”

“We have no choice but to act separately now. If either of you finds anything, inform me immediately.”

Yue Mingzhu and Gong Caiyi frowned, clearly displeased.

But they had no other choice.

The only way they could help Jiang Fan was to mobilize the forces of their respective sects and search in different directions.

“Then you be careful, Husband.”

“If I find anything, I’ll notify you at once. I want to help you secure this credit.”

Yue Mingzhu handed him a Communication Jade Pendant.

Gong Caiyi also silently handed him one.

The two women then led their groups in opposite directions to search.

Jiang Fan watched them leave and murmured softly:

“Two foolish women.”

“How could I let you follow me into danger?”

“If we truly encounter the Hell Beast, you wouldn’t even have a chance to escape.”

Afterward.

He returned to Boundary Mountain.

Wu Manyue arrived around the same time, waving the papers in her hands with a mischievous smile:

“Got the intel!”

Jiang Fan smiled faintly:

“What a coincidence, so did I.”
