Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress-Chapter 358 : This is a Devil!

Chapter 358 - This is a Devil!

Late at night, inside the Southern Clan Alliance camp.

Bonfires flickered, wine cups were passed back and forth, and the sounds of song, dance, and music blended in harmony. It was a scene of joyous celebration.

Since beginning their resistance against the Beast Emperor's tyranny, this was the first time the Southern Clan Alliance had achieved such a great victory!

And what's more, they had annihilated the cruel and bloodthirsty Pig Demon Clan, a name that made countless southern clans tremble with fear.

Who knows how many people's friends and relatives had died at the hands of the Pig Demon Clan, or had been tortured and killed by them on the spot!

Now that the Pig Demon Clan was annihilated, how could everyone not be excited and cheer!

Tonight was a rare occasion for celebration after a long time, and everyone was happy and invigorated.

Ning Yechen sat at the table, sipping the fine wine of the Beast Clan while quietly admiring the unique dances performed by the women of the various clans.

Luo Ruying sat beside him, holding Luo Hongye and feeding the child bit by bit.

Noticing Ning Yechen staring intently at the colorfully dressed and enchantingly dancing beast-women, Luo Ruying couldn't help but furrow her beautiful brows. She leaned in and asked softly:

"Husband, is it a nice view~?"

"Mmm… It's passable."

Ning Yechen replied without thinking. He only reacted a moment later to find the beauty beside him staring at him, her eyes narrowed in a smile that wasn't quite a smile…

"My wife, don't misunderstand…"

"I was just appreciating it out of simple curiosity...!" Ning Yechen hurriedly explained with a straight face.

Seeing this scene, Hu Shan and the others present couldn't help but be greatly surprised.

The dignified supreme ruler of the Demon Realm was actually showing panic in front of a woman… And that woman wasn't the least bit afraid of the Demon Lord…

As expected of the Demon Lord's woman…

"What is Husband curious about?"

Luo Ruying's eyes narrowed slightly as she continued to press the question. If Ning Yechen couldn't answer, he would be in for it tonight!

"Look, my wife. It seems all the members of the Beast Clan in the Beast Realm have more or less retained some of their beastly features."

Ning Yechen said, pointing to the ears or horns on the heads of the various beast-people present.

He had seen members of the Beast Clan in the Mortal Realm before, but they had basically all transformed into human form. Their appearance was almost indistinguishable from that of mortals.

But since coming to the Beast Realm, almost all the beast-people he had seen had retained some of their original beastly features.

Hearing Ning Yechen say this, Luo Ruying also felt it was very reasonable. She had never thought about this question before… Seeing the beast-people retain their original features, she had naturally taken it for granted…

"Perhaps in the Beast Realm, there's no need to deliberately transform into a human form to disguise oneself...?" Luo Ruying guessed.

Cai Se, who was waiting respectfully behind Luo Ruying, heard this and explained with a smile:

"The Madam is right, but it's not just that."

"Because the beastly aura in the Beast Realm is too dense, it's very difficult for us of the Beast Clan to constantly suppress the beastly aura within our bodies to maintain a human appearance."

"Furthermore, the Beast Realm is full of members of the Beast Clan, and most of them dislike humans, so they basically all retain their beast forms."

"But we would absolutely never dislike you, Demon Lord and Madam! You are the benefactors of our Beast Realm!"

Hu Tutu, who was respectfully waiting by Luo Hongye's side, also mustered her courage and hurriedly spoke up.

After promising to become the Little Princess's personal handmaiden, she, like Cai Se and the others, had thrown herself into the role. From time to time, she would proactively offer a handkerchief for Luo Ruying to wipe Luo Hongye's mouth, or she would pick up food and place it on Luo Hongye's plate.

Each time, Luo Hongye would reveal a happy, crescent-moon smile and thank Hu Tutu in her milky voice:

"Thank you, Big Sister Tutu~"

Seeing Luo Hongye's tender and cute little face and hearing her milky words of gratitude, Hu Tutu's heart was filled with joy.

Little Ye Ye is so cute, so well-behaved and sensible…

Originally, she had been very worried that becoming a handmaiden and being responsible for the Demon Lord's daughter would be a very difficult task. Now, she felt she quite liked this job…

Yue Qingyou glanced at Hu Tutu and calmly corrected her:

"Hu Tutu, when serving the Little Princess, you must be more respectful, filled with a heart of reverence and piety."

"Since you are to become the Little Princess's personal handmaiden in the future, you should be even more so!"

"In the future, when necessary, even if it means sacrificing your life for the Little Princess, you must not have a trace of hesitation!"

After Ning Yechen had decided to accept Hu Tutu as Luo Hongye's personal handmaiden, she had been secretly observing Hu Tutu, inspecting whether she was qualified to stay by the Little Princess's side.

Although this little fox was still lacking in many areas to serve as the Little Princess's personal handmaiden, at the very least, she had a good awareness and self-knowledge, which satisfied her.

Since she was the handmaiden personally appointed by the Demon Lord for the Little Princess, Yue Qingyou could slowly teach her bit by bit where she was lacking, until she became a truly qualified and all-powerful personal handmaiden.

At the very least, she had to reach her level! But if she didn't even have the awareness of what it meant to be a personal handmaiden, she would absolutely not approve of her staying by the Little Princess's side.

"Y-Yes...!"

"Tutu understands!"

"I will learn from you, Lady Yue!”

Hu Tutu hurriedly straightened her posture and replied solemnly to Yue Qingyou.

"Very good."

"You are still young, so it is normal for your cultivation to be low."

"But if you are to stay by the Little Princess's side in the future, your cultivation must at least be higher than the pets by her side!"

"In the future, I will be responsible for properly training your cultivation."

After speaking, Yue Qingyou's beautiful eyes glanced at Meng Niu and the other two.

Meng Niu and the others instantly felt a chill run down their spines and shivered. They felt that the "pets" she was referring to were probably them.

"Yes, Tutu understands!"

"Tutu will work hard to stay by the Little Princess's side!"

Hu Tutu once again promised earnestly in her charming voice.

Cai Se and the other two at the side couldn't help but cast a sympathetic gaze at Hu Tutu.

This child still didn't know what she would be facing in the future…

As long as her requirements and expectations were not met, Yue Qingyou would absolutely not show any mercy…!

This was a devil!

Hu Shan, sitting on the other side, watched Hu Tutu learning seriously, his heart filled with a thousand emotions.

Originally, he had been worried about his little granddaughter becoming a handmaiden to the Little Princess of the Demon Realm, but now it seemed there was nothing to worry about… It seemed that for her, this might also be a rare opportunity!

"Demon Lord, thank you so much for your help!"

Hu Shan stood up, raised his wine cup, and respectfully toasted Ning Yechen in gratitude. This cup of wine was to thank Ning Yechen for saving Hu Tutu, for being willing to keep her by his side, and also for annihilating the great pig demon army today.

"Clan Chief Hu, although this Lord said I would help you quell the chaos in the Beast Realm, I will not act to solve your problems every time."

Ning Yechen replied calmly, lifting his wine cup.

"We understand. This is, after all, a matter of our Beast Realm. Unless it is absolutely necessary, we will definitely not trouble you, Lord Demon Lord, to act."

Hu Shan said with a smile, along with the other clan chiefs.

Now that the Pig Demon Clan was annihilated, the southern clans basically had no crisis.

Borrowing the prestige of the Demon Lord, other clans would soon join the resistance. Even without the Demon Lord's help, they were now strong enough to fight against all the other clans besides the Dragon Emperor's other four great clans!

The next step: point the sword north!
