As he familiarized himself with the Demon Emperor Sword Way, there was not much time left for Long Chen to leave the Heavenly Demon Palace. On this day, Long Chen was sitting in a pavilion in the courtyard. Murong Yu, who had almost finished recuperating, walked up to Long Chen and asked, "I heard from the Palace Lord that you are going to leave."
"Yes." Long Chen nodded. He was going to leave sooner or later, so he was not worried about others knowing.
"Is it to go to the Imperial City for revenge?" Murong Yu guessed for a moment and said.
Her guess was very accurate. Long Chen smiled and said, "I think you know that I was hunted down. It was a narrow escape. Today, I finally have a chance to turn the tables. Why not?"
Murong Yu sat down beside Long Chen. Her face was still covered by a black veil. Speaking of which, Long Chen still did not know what she looked like.
"Actually, I really want to hear your story, yours and that girl's." Murong Yu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said.
"Lingxi."
Long Chen was stunned, then smiled and said, "Actually, it's very melodramatic. I knew her for more than a year, and then my strength slowly grew. I went to Bi Yang Imperial City, and then the Ninth Prince took a fancy to her. I killed him, and then we escaped here."
Long Chen summarized the story and told it.
"You really have guts. Back then, you only had that little strength, and you actually dared to go against the Imperial Family." Murong Yu said with some admiration.
"Life and death are fated. It's better to be crazy than to give my woman to someone else," Long Chen said lightly.
This sentence made Murong Yu a little stunned. She shook her head and smiled bitterly. "To be honest, I really envy that girl named Lingxi. She has you to spoil her..."
Long Chen did not know how to reply. If it was in his previous state in Baiyang Town, he would have said "I can spoil you too." Now that he thought of Lingxi, he could not say anything.
So he laughed a few times.
Murong Yu knew that it was awkward, so she changed the subject. "Now that you have the Demon Emperor Sword, and you want to take it away, I think the three Demon Elders may find trouble with you. The Demon Emperor Sword is the treasure of the Heavenly Demon Palace, they will not let you take it."
"Those three old guys, if one comes, I will kill one. If two come, I will kill a pair," Long Chen said.
His tone was very arrogant, but considering that Long Chen could really trample the three Demon Elders under his feet with two sword moves, Murong Yu really believed him. When Long Chen also practiced the Demon Emperor Sword, it was very likely that in the Heavenly Demon Palace, except for Zhao Qingyun, who was in the Reaching Heaven State, no one would be a match for him.
"Long Chen, for the sake of us being friends, can you promise me one thing?" Murong Yu said with some urgency.
"Say it." Long Chen raised his eyebrows.
"Speaking of which, you are going to leave the Heavenly Demon Palace anyway. I also know that you still have a lot of hatred for the three Demon Elders, and they may still find trouble with you. So I hope that you can be magnanimous and not argue with them. If they attack you, I hope you can let them live," Murong Yu said in a pleading tone.
"Why? They are the people who want to kill you viciously." Long Chen asked anxiously.
"But they also raised me, taught me, and made me who I am today. How can I bear to see them die?" Murong Yu asked.
"Okay, I promise you."
Long Chen smiled. Who said that the Heavenly Demon Palace was full of demons? A good girl like Murong Yu, who was grateful and loyal, was not in the Heavenly Demon Palace.
"Thank you." Murong Yu's eyes were full of gratitude.
Long Chen looked at Murong Yu's veil and suddenly said, "Hey, you said that we are good friends, right? Since we are good friends, you still haven't let me admire your beauty."
Long Chen's sudden question made Murong Yu a little evasive. Under Long Chen's fiery gaze, Murong Yu lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Forget it. I am very ugly. Compared to your Miss Lingxi, I am thousands of miles away. I am afraid of scaring you."
"Ga."
Long Chen was a little surprised. He looked at the shape of Murong Yu's face under the veil. An oval face, a jade-like nose, and a fair complexion. Her eyes and forehead were also very beautiful. Such a girl should be considered a peerless beauty. Moreover, the people of the Heavenly Demon Palace also regarded her as a goddess. Why did she say that she was ugly?
Seeing the doubt on Long Chen's face, Murong Yu thought for a moment, and finally said decisively, "Long Chen, do you really want to see my appearance?"
It was as if she had made a very difficult decision.
"Chen, you said you wanted to see."
At this moment, Lingxi reminded him. Long Chen originally thought that Lingxi would be jealous, but her words did not seem to have that intention.
"Mm, let me see."
Lingxi knew a lot. Towards this kind of sudden reminder from her, Long Chen usually chose to believe 100%.
Seeing Long Chen make such a request, Murong Yu was also helpless. She stood up and said, "Let's go to the room first."
As she said that, she took a step forward, and Long Chen followed behind. Murong Yu's figure was tall and exquisite. Just based on her figure alone, it was enough to turn the world upside down. She actually said that he was ugly. Long Chen really did not believe it.
After entering the room, Long Chen closed the door. When he turned his head back, the veil on Murong Yu's face had already been removed. What reflected in Long Chen's eyes was not an ugly girl, but a rare peerless beauty. It was not much different from what Long Chen had estimated before. Such a beauty, in the entire Heavenly Demon Palace, with a face as fair as jade and a pair of alluring eyes, could really be considered a goddess.
"Are you crazy? How can this be considered ugly?" Long Chen said a little gloomily. When he saw this appearance just now, he was a little surprised.
Murong Yu smiled helplessly and said, "Actually, the appearance you see now, in the Heavenly Demon Palace, there are actually many people who have seen it. However, so they all think that I am very beautiful. Even Yang Danfeng is kept in the dark. But in fact, this is not my true appearance."
"What do you mean?" Long Chen asked.
"You will know when you see it."
After saying that, Murong Yu stretched out her white and slender fingers, and touched the chin of her face for a while. Not long after, what shocked Long Chen was that she actually pulled out her own skin, but strangely, there was no blood.
With a whoosh, the skin on her face was completely pulled out by Murong Yu, and what surprised Long Chen was that what appeared was not a bloody mess, but another face. According to Murong Yu's words before, Long Chen could tell that the face that Murong Yu had just now was actually fake.
And at this time, the face in front of Long Chen was actually not much different from before. The only difference was that on her left cheek, there was an ugly red mark, as if she had been scalded when she was young. This made her entire person look very terrifying. She said that she was very ugly, and it was not wrong at all.
This time, Long Chen did not know what to say. He felt that it was actually a little wrong of him to force the other party to show this side of her, so he said sorry.
"Please don't mind me. You also never thought that I would actually be so ugly, right?"
Murong Yu's expression was a little gloomy. It could be seen that because of this big red mark, she had felt inferior for countless years.
"This should be a burn when you were young, but, there are so many medicines in the Demonic Palace, they should be able to cure you easily." Long Chen suddenly thought of this and asked doubtfully.
"I also don't know, the only person who knows about my appearance is actually my master. She has found many medicines for me, but it seems like there is no way … So, I have long since accepted my fate …" Murong Yu said with a gloomy expression.
At this time, Ling Xi's voice suddenly rang out, "Big Brother Chen, I know. This is the Fire Poison Curse, a natural restriction formed by the heavens and the earth. She most likely accidentally touched it, which is why she was cursed. Ordinary medicine would naturally not be able to remove it."
Only then did Long Chen think that Lingxi must have felt that she was cursed by the Fire Poison Curse before, so she told Long Chen to let Murong Yu show her true appearance. Long Chen hurriedly asked excitedly: "Little Xi, you said that you are an expert in restrictions, which means that you can remove this Fire Poison Curse."
"I have eighty percent confidence." Lingxi said with some pride.
Eighty percent was already a great success. Long Chen thought for a moment, Murong Yu was now considered a good friend, so he didn't have to worry about Lingxi's matter being known by her, so he suddenly smiled and said: "Let me show you a super big surprise, do you want it?"
Because of the matter of appearance, the atmosphere was a little quiet, but when Long Chen suddenly said such a sentence, it scared Murong Yu. She had not yet put back her veil, but she subconsciously nodded.
And at this time, the ear stud on Long Chen's left ear suddenly emitted a burst of white smoke, and a small beautiful person came out from Lingxi's sword, stopping in front of Murong Yu. That small person slowly raised her head, revealing a devastatingly beautiful face.
"Ah …" Murong Yu was so scared that she couldn't help but take two steps back.
"Don't be afraid, you've met her before, her name is Lingxi, you know." Long Chen put Lingxi on his palm and said with a smile.
Murong Yu calmed her emotions, looking at the smiling Lingxi, her heart was full of questions, she said with some disbelief: "You said that Miss Lingxi is in a safe place, are you referring to your ear stud? How did she become like this?"
"What she looks like is not important, I will restore her to her original appearance, but Murong Yu, let me tell you a good news, my Little Xi said that she has eighty percent confidence that she can remove the scar on your face."
"What?" This news, for Murong Yu, came too unexpectedly.
"There's no time to lose, Miss Little Yu, you should lie on the bed, I have some research on this, I believe it will succeed …" Lingxi said sincerely.
Murong Yu could only nod, she was completely unable to react, she was sent to the bed by Lingxi.
