My Demon Queen

Chapter 196 Please Stop

As Ye An's somewhat joking voice fell, the only sound around was the rustling of the breeze blowing through the trees. It was so quiet that one could almost hear the subtle sound of dust falling to the ground in the air.

Dao Wuchen widened his eyes with an expression of disbelief. The wrinkles on his weathered face seemed to have become deeper because of surprise. His brows were tightly knitted together, and in addition to confusion and puzzlement, his eyes also held a hint of faint vigilance.

Mo Qingcheng's face, which was originally as indifferent as an iceberg, was now filled with astonishment and confusion, as if she had seen something dirty.

Mo Qingcheng's delicate facial features became lively because of her emotional fluctuations. Her eyebrows were furrowed like two crescent moons, and her cherry lips were slightly open, as if she wanted to yell but was holding back.

That beautiful face was filled with complex emotions at this moment, making people want to explore her inner thoughts.

Ye An looked at Dao Wuchen's incredulous expression and said to him with a smile, "Do you find it incredible? I find it incredible too. For a gentleman as handsome and gentle as me, Mo Qingcheng is really out of her league."

He folded his hands over his chest, raised his head high, and pointed his nose to the sky. His face was full of pride and arrogance. He looked so arrogant as if the whole world was under his control.

There was a cunning light in Ye An's eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up with a bit of recklessness.

However, Dao Wuchen and Ye An did not find any trace of Mo Qingcheng, but Ye Quan did.

Ye Quan sensed Mo Qingcheng from the beginning, but never had the time to tell Ye An.

But seeing Ye An's complacent look, Ye Quan simply got a bad taste in his mouth and said to Ye An in his mind: "Take it easy, young man, you are not afraid of biting your tongue."

Ye An, however, turned a deaf ear to him and still had that arrogant look on his face. He glanced at Dao Wuchen with his eyes slanted, with the corner of his mouth raised, full of disdain.

Although Dao Wuchen looked normal, he was actually wondering about two things in his mind.

"The first thing is that Mo Qingcheng does treat Ye An differently. With her arrogant and cold personality, she would never allow Ye An to talk nonsense like this. It is very likely that the relationship between the two is as Ye An said. The second thing is that Mu Wushuang... Oh, this calamity is really not easy for her!"

Thinking of this, Dao Wuchen couldn't help but sigh slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Mo Qingcheng, who was far away, had a confused look on her face, but when she heard Ye An say that she was not worthy of him and was out of her league, she held on to the tree trunk even harder. Her slender finger joints turned white and her knuckles trembled slightly from the force.

As a series of "sizzling" sounds were heard, it seemed as if the tree was crying softly.

"I am trying to climb above your level, right, Ye An? You are really brave!"

Mo Qingcheng gritted her teeth, anger burning in her eyes. Her gaze became colder and colder. She stared straight at Ye An's back like a sharp sword, and her gaze seemed to be able to pierce Ye An.

Mo Qingcheng's chest rose and fell slightly because of anger, and her breathing became rapid.

Ye An felt his back seemed to be even colder than before, and he shuddered. Then he looked around vigilantly, then looked at Dao Wuchen, and said in his heart: "There is always an old man who wants to harm me."

There was a hint of suspicion in his eyes and his brows were slightly furrowed.

Dao Wuchen looked at Ye An with a complicated expression, thinking to himself

"His identity is still unclear, but it is certain that he is very likely to be the disaster star. If Mo Qingcheng is really as related as he said, then the entire demon race is almost united with the disaster star. This is not a good result for the human race. It seems necessary to meet Mo Qingcheng. Thinking of this, his eyes became more determined and he secretly made up his mind."

“My friend, stop joking. The old man saw that Mo Qingcheng was really in trouble. She should be in the wooden house behind you.”

Dao Wuchen said calmly, with a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could see through everything.

Ye An was stunned when he heard this, and then he put away his smug look. His face instantly turned as cold as frost. He looked at Dao Wuchen with cold eyes and said, "It doesn't matter if he's here or not. Don't you want to force your way in, old man?"

Ye An's voice was low and full of unquestionable majesty.

Dao Wuchen smiled when he heard this. He could naturally see Ye An's true strength, so he said nonchalantly: "If you don't agree, then I, an old man, will have to give it a try."

As he spoke, he stroked his beard and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, as if to say that he was determined to do what happened today.

Ye An sneered, then put away the paper fan, reminded Ye Quan in his mind to be ready, and then slowly said: "We are husband and wife, and we will not receive any guests today, so please go back."

Ye An's expression was serious and his eyes were firm. He had no intention of retreating. His tall figure was like an insurmountable mountain.

Dao Wuchen's expression became more solemn when he heard what Ye An said, and he felt more and more that what Ye An said was true.

"Today, I am afraid that I, an old man, will use my power to bully the weak."

After Dao Wuchen finished speaking, his whole body suddenly glowed with golden light, like a scorching sun, shining brightly. He rushed directly towards Ye An, bringing up a gust of wind that blew the surrounding leaves fluttering.

Mo Qingcheng sensed that Wu Chen would not do anything to harm Ye An just as he had said in the Demon Clan at that time. It seemed that he was concerned about herself and Ruxue, so she felt relieved.

"Ye Quan..."

"All right."

Just as Dao Wuchen passed by Ye An, Ye An quickly stretched out a hand, as fast as lightning, and accurately grabbed Dao Wuchen's shoulder.

"Old man, I've said before that today, my husband and I will not be receiving any guests. Please stop."

Ye An spoke calmly, then he exerted force with his hands, and a black aura instantly burst out from Ye An's hands.

Ye An's expression was cold and his eyes were fierce, as if he was a demon from hell.

Dao Wuchen was originally surprised that Ye An could catch him, but now when he saw the black spiritual power bursting out from Ye An's hands, a sense of fear of death suddenly surged into his heart, and his face instantly turned pale, without a trace of blood.

Then he suddenly broke free from Ye An's hand and returned to his original position.

At this time, fine beads of cold sweat had appeared on Dao Wuchen's forehead. Beads of sweat slid down his cheeks and dripped onto the ground like beads that had broken off the string.

The shoulder that Ye An had grabbed was now trembling slightly, as if it had lost its strength.

Just now, in order to break free from Ye An's restraints, Dao Wuchen used the strength of the Half-Step Ascension Realm, but even so, it was only barely enough.

Because of her five senses, Mo Qingcheng couldn't clearly perceive what was happening. She just felt that Dao Wuchen's sudden retreat was a bit strange, and her heart was full of doubts.

"Ye Quan, are you okay?"

"Huh~ Don't look strange, I was careless." Ye Quan said weakly, with a hint of fatigue and regret in his voice.

Ye An's face was calm, but his eyes were full of anxiety. He asked in his mind, "What's going on?"

"You estimated wrongly. This old fellow's strength is actually comparable to Mo Qingcheng's. If I hadn't used all my strength to protect you just now, the force he used to break free would have been enough to seriously injure you."

Ye Quan spoke slowly, his tone heavy and filled with deep remorse.

"Are you okay?" Ye An asked worriedly, his brows furrowed and his eyes full of concern.

"It's OK. Like Mo Qingcheng, I overused my spiritual energy. But I'm better than her and saved a lot."

Ye Quan said this with a slight ease, but the weakness in his voice was hard to conceal.

"Thank you for your hard work." Ye An said seriously, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Okay, stop being mushy with me. This old guy hasn't left yet." Ye Quan said.

Ye An also knew that now was not the time to say more, so he exited the consciousness space, looked at Dao Wuchen calmly and said, "Old man, can you stop now?"

Dao Wuchen's heart was like a raging storm at the moment. The black spiritual power just now was a devouring force, and it also contained deathly energy.

"How is it possible? How could he have such a legendary ability?"

Dao Wuchen murmured in his heart, and in an instant, Dao Wuchen had murderous intentions towards Ye An. These two abilities combined in one person are enough to destroy the world. His eyes became fierce, as if he wanted to eat Ye An alive.

"Not good, this old guy has murderous intentions towards you."

Ye Quan couldn't help but be shocked, a look of nervousness appeared on his face, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"If Dao Wuchen is determined to kill Ye An, I can resist him and exchange one for one with Dao Wuchen, but without me, what should I do? What will happen to Ye An in the future?"

Ye Quan couldn't help but worry in his heart, his brows were tightly knitted together, and he fell into deep thought.

Upon hearing this, Ye An looked at Dao Wuchen's murderous eyes and knew that today might be a dangerous day. His heart sank and his face became solemn, but he still straightened his back and looked at Dao Wuchen without flinching.

Dao Wuchen looked at Ye An and knew that he could not let Ye An grow up. Even if it cost him his own life, he had to get rid of Ye An.

Just when Dao Wuchen was about to gather his spiritual energy, Mo Qingcheng's voice suddenly came into his ears.

"How dare you, old man."

Dao Wuchen suddenly came to his senses and remembered.

"Mo Qingcheng is still here. Although she has not shown up, she has put a lot of pressure on me. Moreover, I have just used up all my spiritual power to avoid Ye An's attack. With my current strength, killing Ye An may result in a fatal accident. If Mo Qingcheng joins in, I am afraid..."

Thinking of this, Dao Wuchen looked at Ye An unwillingly, then turned around and turned into a stream of light and escaped.

For a moment, Ye An and Ye Quan were left standing there in a daze.

"Leaving now?"

"Frightened away by you?"

Ye Quan and Ye An asked at the same time in their consciousness space.

Then Ye Quan seemed to have thought of something and immediately started performing.

"I can't do it anymore. Ouch, I feel dizzy. I need to take a nap. Bye."

After saying that, he kicked Ye An's consciousness out.

"..."

At this moment, many question marks appeared in Ye An's head, and he looked confused.

"What are you doing?"

Ye An speechlessly wanted to ask Ye Quan for clarification, when suddenly he saw a purple figure in the woods out of the corner of his eye.

Ye An no longer cared about Ye Quan. He flew down instantly and looked at Mo Qingcheng anxiously.

"What are you doing here? And why is your forehead covered in sweat?"

Ye An looked at Mo Qingcheng's calm face covered with sweat, completely unaware that Mo Qingcheng had just used the spiritual power that had just condensed in his body to send a message and scared Dao Wuchen away, so he felt weak at this moment.

Mo Qingcheng raised her head, glanced at Ye An coldly, and said, "If I hadn't come, how would I know that you had become someone else's husband? If I hadn't come, how would I have known that I was marrying above my station?"
