Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Madam Demon Empress, You Wouldn't Want Anything to Happen to Your Daughter, Would You?
Sea God Temple.
Zhou Yi gently laid Bo Saixi onto the grand bed, casually setting aside the Sea God Trident and the godly inheritance.
"It's time to deal with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King."
He leaned down, placing a tender kiss on Bo Saixi's delicate, porcelain-like cheek and her soft, rosy lips before leaving the Sea God Temple.
At this moment, the Demon Empress was frantically fleeing toward her lair with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who was filled with despair.
The Sea God was dead.
Killed by Zhou Yi.
This was something she could never have imagined.
Zhou Yi was terrifying beyond measure.
The only thought in her mind now was: Escape! Run as far as possible!
But a calm voice echoed behind them.
"You can't escape."
The Demon Whale King stopped abruptly, jumping down from the Demon Empress' head.
"Go. If I stay behind, you might have a chance to survive."
"You think you can leave?"
Zhou Yi's silhouette appeared ahead of them, his tone indifferent.
"Master!"
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King dropped to his knees, pleading, "I beg Master to show mercy. Spare my kin, and I will willingly accept any punishment."
The Demon Empress transformed, her figure shifting into a stunning beauty draped in a regal violet-gold gown. Her charm was unmatched, radiating both allure and majesty.
Falling to her knees, she begged, "Mighty Martial God, have mercy! My husband never intended to betray you!"
"It was only because the Sea God threatened our entire clan with extermination that he revealed your information to him. My husband knew of your divine prowess and invincibility, certain even the Sea God was no match, and thus dared to act. Otherwise, he would never have betrayed you!"
Zhou Yi laughed coldly. "Do you take me for a child?"
"Deep Sea Demon Whale King, I understand your actions for the sake of your people, but I cannot forgive betrayal."
Golden-red light flashed in Zhou Yi's eyes, and a blazing fire ignited around the Demon Whale King.
Agonized screams filled the ocean as the fire consumed him from within, resistant to even the surrounding seawater.
"Martial God, please, I beg for mercy!"
The Demon Empress clung to Zhou Yi's leg, her face full of despair.
Zhou Yi looked down upon them, unmoved.
Zhou Yi had granted the Demon Whale King a Transformation Pill—a fortune of unparalleled magnitude. Yet the king had betrayed him for the sake of his clan, revealing his secrets to the Sea God.
Though Zhou Yi understood the reasoning, betrayal was not something he could condone. Actions had consequences.
He did not intend to kill the Demon Whale King. The Transformation Pill was too valuable to waste. Instead, he planned to test his Divine Eye Calamity Technique, refining the Demon Whale King into a puppet.
This puppet would retain its intelligence, potential, and abilities but would become utterly loyal, incapable of betrayal.
As the flames of Zhou Yi's soul fire burned away the Demon Whale King's will, the agony was beyond comprehension.
Furious, the Demon Empress launched herself at Zhou Yi. "I'll fight you to the death!"
"An ant trying to shake a tree."
Zhou Yi casually caught her slender neck, lifting her into the air. Her flawless face twisted in anger and despair.
The gap in power was insurmountable.
Zhou Yi's gaze swept over her with appreciation, taking in her alluring curves, regal bearing, and mesmerizing violet eyes. Her physique embodied perfection, from her delicate collarbone to her slender waist and long legs.
Killing her for a soul ring or bone would be wasteful, he decided. The abilities granted by his system's rewards far surpassed anything soul rings could offer.
Instead, he thought, Why not let her bear my children?
Such a choice would yield rewards far greater than any soul ring or bone.
"You… What are you looking at?"
The Demon Empress' heart pounded under Zhou Yi's intense gaze, her voice trembling with fury and humiliation.
Zhou Yi murmured, "Excellent. Wide hips, perfect for childbirth. A generous chest ensures the child won't go hungry."
"You shameless fiend!"
"You are my captive now," Zhou Yi replied coldly, gripping her delicate chin and forcing her to look at him.
"Everything you are, including your body, belongs to me."
The Demon Empress hissed, "If you touch me, I'll self-destruct and take you with me!"
"In my presence, you don't even have the right to die."
Zhou Yi infused her body with his Sacred Heart True Qi, completely suppressing her.
At that moment, the Demon Whale King knelt behind Zhou Yi, his expression devoid of emotion.
"Master."
"You. What do you think of her?" Zhou Yi asked, his tone calm.
The Demon Whale King, now fully under Zhou Yi's control, responded reverently, "It is her greatest honor to serve you. If Master desires, I can even bring my daughter to serve you, though she has not yet reached the ten-thousand-year threshold to take human form."
"You…"
The Demon Empress stared at the Demon Whale King in horror, turning to Zhou Yi. "What have you done to him?"
"I simply made him more loyal."
Zhou Yi smirked. "Now, go fetch your daughter."
"Yes, Master!"
The Demon Whale King obeyed without hesitation.
The Demon Empress' fury flared as she lunged again, only to be swatted aside effortlessly by Zhou Yi.
"Madam Demon Empress, you wouldn't want anything to happen to your daughter, would you?"
His words struck her like a thunderclap, shattering her resolve.
"What exactly do you want from me?"
The Demon Empress pleaded, her voice trembling.
Zhou Yi's expression remained indifferent, his penetrating gaze cutting through her defenses. Not only did he know her daughter's name, but he had already dispatched the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to bring her here.
She had no choice in the matter.
"Disrobe yourself."
Zhou Yi's tone carried an unyielding authority as his eyes roved over the Demon Empress's curvaceous figure.
"Will you really spare my daughter if I do this?" she asked, her voice tinged with desperation.
"You are in no position to negotiate terms with me."
Zhou Yi's gaze turned icy. "If you don't want to taste the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's fish soup later, I suggest you do as you're told."
"As for whether your daughter will be spared..."
Zhou Yi's lips curved into a faint, mocking smile as he met her tearful eyes. "That depends entirely on your performance in the days to come."
The Demon Empress clenched her pearl-like teeth in humiliation. Though her heart burned with resentment, she thought of her daughter, Lan Fuzi. What other choice did she have?
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was unreliable.
She was no match for him either.
Caught between the blade and the chopping block, she had no recourse but to submit.
Her delicate, jade-like hands slowly rose, trembling as they gripped the jade belt at her waist. With a gentle tug, her purple-gold gown slipped from her shoulders, cascading to the ground.
"Not bad. Not bad at all," Zhou Yi remarked, his predatory eyes drinking in the sight without a shred of pity for the woman who had once prayed for the Sea God to end his life.
"Keep going."
Tears streamed down the Demon Empress's face as she knelt, her pride shattered. She crawled forward until she was before Zhou Yi, her movements sluggish with despair.
"Whether Lan Fuzi lives or dies depends entirely on your future conduct," Zhou Yi declared, his tone cold and commanding.
Like a tyrant savoring his victory, Zhou Yi reached out to gently pat her flawless cheek, his fingers brushing away her tears with an unsettling tenderness. His words, however, dripped with menace, like the whisper of a devil.
"Do your best. I'm counting on you."
"Please, my lord," the Demon Empress murmured, her voice filled with resignation.
