Chapter 210 The Little Fox Transforms into a Human, the Demon Lord is Busy Chasing His Wife - 60
Mu Wanwan despised the arrogant woman in front of her, who, relying on her status as a meritorious official of the Demon Realm, threatened Yan Shuo with extreme arrogance.
"Do you think I don't dare?"
Yan Shuo was so angry that he wanted to strangle this damned woman right then and there.
Immediately, a commotion arose outside: "Demon Lord, hand over the murderer! We must avenge the children!"
It turned out that the families of the innocent young people who had been murdered had gathered outside. When they learned that the murderer had been found, they all came to seek justice for the children who had died innocently.
Yan Shuo was also surprised that these people had arrived so quickly.
His gaze fell on Mu Wanwan.
Mu Wanwan paid no attention to Yan Shuo's gaze, her face beaming with a bright smile, ready to watch the show unfold.
"Bai Jingjing, do you think the people outside will forgive your act of killing your son because you are Yan Shuo's savior?"
"It's you, Mu Wanwan! You're the one who called them here, aren't you? You're trying to drive me to the brink of despair."
Mu Wanwan shrugged, feigning nonchalance.
"So you're so smart! You knew it was me without even guessing!"
Mu Wanwan gave Yan Shuo a resentful look, and Yan Shuo felt a chill run down his spine.
"I just blocked Yan Shuo's way of letting you go!"
You shouldn't have schemed against my demonic essence.
Since you've done it, you should be prepared to be crushed by me.
Yan Shuo became frightened; he had never seen Wanwan's eyes look like that before.
He always thought she would understand him and forgive him!
It turns out he was wrong!
His little fox always harbored hatred for him deep down.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken it upon herself to bring all these people together.
She didn't believe she would execute Bai Jingjing.
"Wanwan!" Yan Shuo called her name softly and nervously.
"Yan Shuo, do you think what I did was inappropriate?"
That damned Yan Shuo, if he dared to say even a single word, he would have been slapped across the face immediately.
Yan Shuo cautiously shook his head, "No, no! But she did save me after all~"
Mu Wanwan raised her hand to stop him from saying what he was about to say.
"You don't need to say anything, I already understand what you mean. This woman is taking advantage of the fact that she saved your life to manipulate you."
Huh~
Yan Shuo, if you can't find the murderer, I'll find him myself.
Now that you've found her, you still seem inclined to protect her.
"Am I just a joke in your eyes?"
Mu Wanwan wasn't really blaming him for not being able to find the murderer; she had the system to help her and already knew who the murderer was.
She was angry that the murderer was right in front of him, yet he still had compassion.
"Wanwan, I love you. You're my darling. Don't belittle yourself, okay?"
Mu Wanwan shook him off and walked straight out the door. The people outside fell silent the moment they saw it was Mu Wanwan coming out.
"Madam, who is the murderer?! We must avenge our dead child!"
Mu Wanwan feigned reluctance, her eyes glistening with tears, "Fellow villagers, it's not that I'm unwilling to hand over the murderer, it's just..."
Some people want to know the reason and are eager to bring the bad guys to justice.
"The murderer must be punished; murderers must pay with their lives."
Mu Wanwan hesitated, her expression turning fearful. "I know, but she's Bai Jingjing, a great contributor to the Demon Realm."
The scene immediately fell silent.
"She has done good deeds for the demon realm; her merits and demerits cancel each other out, I think..."
A mother was instantly enraged, on the verge of exploding, and cried out, "Are my children's lives really so worthless? Does merit justify the indiscriminate killing of innocent people? Villagers, rush in and kill Bai Jingjing to avenge our children!"
Mu Wanwan cried out in surprise, pretending to trip. Yan Shuo quickly caught her, while the people outside rushed in.
Bound up, Bai Jingjing was unable to struggle, fight back, or dodge; all she could do was scream.
"What are you doing? I am the Demon Lord's savior, you can't treat me like this!"
Her beautiful hair was ripped off, instantly transforming her into a disheveled Japanese Sadako.
"No, no, it hurts~ ah~"
Ignoring her cries, the crowd surrounded her and began punching and kicking her, one group after another.
Lying on the ground, her face was already bruised and swollen; she was nowhere near as beautiful as she once was.
Lying on the ground, completely at their mercy, she could almost hear the sound of her bones breaking.
"Yan Shuo, save me!"
She pleaded for help with all her might. If Yan Shuo didn't intervene, she would really be tortured to death by these people.
The demon essence I finally obtained cannot die like this.
"Yan Shuo, your benefactor is calling you!"
Mu Wanwan broke free from his embrace, turned away coldly, and left Yan Shuo alone to deal with the situation.
Yan Shuo ultimately chose to stay and did not pursue Mu Wanwan.
"Fellow villagers, could you please give me some face? My Demon Palace will give you an explanation for the crimes committed by Bai Jingjing. Please believe me."
The villagers then stopped, but they were still cursing Bai Jingjing, wishing they could stomp her to death.
Ah Qing watched from the side, trembling with fear. If it weren't for the servants supporting her, she probably would have fainted long ago.
Bai Jingjing lay motionless on the ground, but Yan Shuo no longer felt any pity for her.
“Demon Lord, we respect you, so we choose to believe you. If we do not see this woman’s body by tomorrow, we will definitely come and take her life.”
There was already a pool of blood beneath Bai Jingjing, and her body trembled involuntarily after hearing the villagers' words.
A moment later, everyone had left, and the surroundings became quiet again.
Unbeknownst to them, Bai Shaoqing had quietly stood at the door, clapping and cheering for Yan Shuo.
"The dignified Demon Lord was actually outwitted by a woman. It's utterly ridiculous."
Li Yuan immediately became alert and stood in front of Yan Shuo, pretending to protect him.
Yan Shuo sneered and pushed Li Yuan away, "Has the Immortal Venerable graced my Demon Realm with his presence? Has he forgotten the agreement between immortals and demons?"
Bai Shaoqing raised his hands, "Demon Lord, don't misunderstand, I'm just here to join in the fun."
"The affairs of my Demon Realm are none of your business, you celestial being. Get out of here, you're not welcome!"
His face remained calm when his rival came knocking, but inside he was panicking terribly.
Given his current relationship with Mu Wanwan, this man might just use a little trick to get the naive Wanwan to go with him.
"Demon Lord, don't be in such a hurry to send me away. I've come to deliver the truth to you."
"You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth! I don't want to hear it! Get out!"
Yan Shuo could tell from Bai Shaoqing that he was a person with ill intentions, and he didn't want to get involved with him any further.
"Yan Shuo, if I didn't hate seeing Wanwan suffer, do you think I would want to come to this godforsaken place?"
The news of Mu Wanwan being framed had been circulating for a long time, and today he happened to hear that the murderer was actually Yan Shuo's savior. He thought it was interesting, so he came uninvited.
