Chapter 34

It’s Not Good for Subordinates to be Too Loyal and Fervent

“More important things…?” Ye Tianshen echoed, bewildered.

What could be more important than being the Demon Lord and ruling the Demon Realm?

And he had just witnessed a joyful smile he had never seen before on the Demon Lord’s face!

The Demon Lord is actually capable of such a smile?!

Is this really the Demon Lord he knew?!

Since he had been found, Ning Yechen no longer intended to hide it. He cleared his throat and solemnly declared:

“I need to take care of my wife and daughter. I don’t have time to be the Demon Lord.”

“And don’t come looking for me again.”

Hmm?

Hmm?

Hmm?!!

What?!

Σ(°Д°;っ)!!!

Ye Tianshen’s mind was in turmoil. He was utterly shocked, wondering if he had heard correctly!

The Demon Lord is married?!

And even has a child?!

This, this couldn’t be true!

During his reign, the Demon Lord had never shown any interest in women. To suddenly learn that he even had a child was completely unbelievable.

The Demon Lord had been in seclusion for over a hundred years, and he had a child during that time!

If this news spread throughout the Demon Realm, it would cause an uproar!

Ye Tianshen asked in a daze, “Is, is this true, Demon Lord…?”

Ning Yechen nodded with a smile.

He felt an inexplicable sense of joy, like a proud father sharing the news of his newborn daughter with others.

Receiving Ning Yechen’s confirmation, Ye Tianshen’s shocked expression gradually turned into delight. He quickly offered his congratulations:

“Congratulations to the Demon Lord on your marriage and the birth of your daughter!”

“I will immediately inform everyone in the Demon Realm of this exciting news!”

“We will prepare to welcome the Demon Lord’s wife and daughter back to the Demon Realm!”

Ye Tianshen eagerly prepared to send a message to the entire Demon Realm.

Ning Yechen quickly stopped him, giving him an exasperated look. He emphasized:

“I told you, I’m not the Demon Lord anymore.”

“I want to live a secluded life with my wife and daughter. I won’t go back.”

“And you don’t have to come looking for me again.”

“I don’t want anyone disturbing my life with my wife and daughter, understand?”

If Ye Tianshen informed the entire Demon Realm, there would be no peace for him.

He couldn’t allow anyone to disturb the peaceful and happy life he longed for!

“But, but…”

Ye Tianshen, reluctant to give up, wanted to continue persuading him, but Ning Yechen’s cold gaze silenced him.

“No buts!”

“Have I been away for so long that you can’t even understand what I’m saying?”

At that moment, Ning Yechen regained his familiar aura as the Demon Lord. Ye Tianshen couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. He didn’t dare disobey Ning Yechen any longer and obediently shut his mouth.

“Now that you understand, leave quickly.”

“My wife has been waiting for a long time; she must be worried.”

“I have to hurry back.”

Ning Yechen waved his hand dismissively, ready to turn and return to Luo Ruying’s side.

Ye Tianshen was filled with curiosity.

Whenever his wife and child were mentioned, the Demon Lord would become unprecedentedly gentle…

The Demon Lord had changed…

Just as Ning Yechen was about to leave, Ye Tianshen finally snapped back to reality, remembering something crucial.

He still didn’t know why his subordinates had offended the Demon Lord!

This was no small matter!

“Demon Lord, please wait a moment.”

“May I ask if my subordinates have offended you?”

Ye Tianshen’s eyes turned cold, his expression serious. A terrifying killing intent instantly enveloped the surroundings, piercing through them like needles!

He didn’t ask how Ye Zheng had offended Ning Yechen but directly asked if they had offended him.

Because regardless of the reason, offending the Demon Lord was equivalent to treason, an unforgivable crime punishable by death in the Demon Realm!

Hearing this, Ye Zheng and the man in black shuddered, their hearts filled with despair.

Ning Yechen turned around and said nonchalantly:

“They did attack me, but considering they are your subordinates, I spared them.”

“It’s my fault!”

“I allowed my subordinates to offend you, Demon Lord!”

“I deserve death!”

“Please punish me, Demon Lord!”

Ye Tianshen knelt on one knee, his head bowed in apology.

“How many times do I have to tell you, I’m not the Demon Lord anymore.”

“And I won’t blame you.”

“Just leave and don’t disturb my life.”

Ning Yechen urged Ye Tianshen to leave with an exasperated expression.

No matter how many times he said it, Ye Tianshen still seemed to regard him as the Demon Lord, which frustrated him.

It wasn’t good for subordinates to be too loyal and fervent.

Seeing that Ning Yechen wasn’t going to punish him, Ye Tianshen suddenly plunged his hand into his own chest!

The crime of offending the Demon Lord must be punished!

Even if the Demon Lord didn’t pursue it, he couldn’t forgive himself.

Ning Yechen: “…”

Ning Yechen looked at Ye Tianshen speechlessly.

Although he was somewhat familiar with the personalities of his subordinates, seeing him so readily pierce his own chest still left him speechless.

Those from the Demon Realm were so stubborn!

He wasn’t even pursuing the matter, yet this guy insisted on punishing himself…

It was always like this!

Ning Yechen was starting to suspect that everyone in the Demon Realm had a hidden masochistic tendency…

After punishing himself, Ye Tianshen turned his cold gaze towards Ye Zheng and the man in black. With a wave of his hand, a black beam of light engulfed and annihilated the man in black!

He then pointed his palm at Ye Zheng!

As the general of the First Legion, his subordinate had offended the Demon Lord, and he was responsible for their misconduct. He had to be punished.

As for Ye Zheng and the others who had attacked the Demon Lord, they deserved the death penalty!

Ye Zheng knew this very well and closed his eyes, not uttering a single word of plea.

The moment he learned that Ning Yechen was the Demon Lord, he had already guessed his fate…

Just as Ye Tianshen was about to strike, Ning Yechen stopped him.

“Alright, alright, let him go.”

Considering that Ye Zheng didn’t know his identity at first and hadn’t posed any real threat to his wife and child, he would forgive him this time.

“Demon Lord, he offended you!”

Ye Tianshen frowned slightly, his hand still raised, seemingly unwilling to easily forgive Ye Zheng’s transgression.

“He was merely following orders.”

“Killing him won’t solve anything.”

“I’m not pursuing this matter, so let him go,” Ning Yechen said calmly.

“Very well, I will obey the Demon Lord’s instructions.”

“You are spared this time!”

Ye Tianshen reluctantly lowered his hand.

He had intended to kill Ye Zheng.

But since the Demon Lord had spoken, he would reluctantly let Ye Zheng off the hook this time.

He would also take this opportunity to question Ye Zheng and gather some information.

Who dared to order people from the Demon Realm to attack the Demon Lord?!

Having narrowly escaped death, Ye Zheng quickly kowtowed to Ning Yechen in gratitude.

“Thank you for your forgiveness, Demon Lord!”

Just when he thought he was doomed, the Demon Lord had personally pleaded for him!

Ye Zheng’s heart was filled with gratitude.

“I’m leaving. Remember, don’t come and bother me again!”

Having dealt with everything, Ning Yechen didn’t linger. He left these words and quickly disappeared.

Ye Tianshen watched Ning Yechen leave, his heart filled with reluctance.

But at least he had finally found the Demon Lord…

He had to inform the others of this news immediately!
