These words made Xikali's expression stagnant. He looked at Alice and then at Chen Rui: "Your Excellency Chen Rui, is this true?"
"Your Highness, the little princess, was joking," Chen Rui secretly gave Alice a thumbs-up sign and shrugged: "The original words are, I would rather cut off my arms and legs than run naked."
Xikali narrowed his eyes slightly: "So... Mr. Chen Rui refused?"
Chen Rui ignored the chill in Xikali's eyes and smiled slightly: "I am just Dark Moon's financial officer. Lord, you have a noble status and belong to the royal family, so why bother with me."
Although the tone was more tactful, it was already an obvious rejection.
Even Chen Rui, who is at the peak of the Demon Emperor, is not afraid. There are already two peak Demon Emperors in his hands, and they are all combat-oriented. None of them are worse than Xikali.
If you dare to touch his woman's mind, there is only one word, kill!
Chen Rui's obvious disregard made the corners of Xikali's eyes twitch. Just as he was about to speak, a nonchalant voice rang out: "Stop talking nonsense, Jia is my good sister. If anyone dares to have any wrong ideas, I will directly
Destroy his whole family!"
There is no one who calls herself my mother on this occasion except Miss Jade Dragon. Today, Miss Betty was pulled over by Chen Rui to "welcome guests". The original intention was to act as a deterrent at some point. When I heard that Sikali actually called "Governance Alliance"
Sister and chief costume designer Jia's idea was immediately rejected without ceremony.
Palanduo shouted: "How brave! Who are you? How dare you..."
Before he finished speaking, a terrifying coercion came over him. Parlando felt like he was falling into the ice cellar, unable to say anything. The mutated demon that was originally grinning was holding his hand.
The dog lay on the ground and trembled, as if it had seen something terrible.
The aura of demon emperor-level power! Sikali's expression suddenly changed. He quickly said: "Your Highness Shia, Parlando has always been ignorant. You know it. It was just a misunderstanding. Please ask this lord's subordinates
Show mercy."
Cloberus took back her breath under Chen Rui's secret signal, sneered disdainfully at Parlando, and started chatting and laughing with Alice as if she was not interested.
Palando's whole body was soaked in cold sweat. She still dared to say a word, but the devil dog had long lost its previous majesty. It hid behind her with its tail between its legs. You must know that Cloberus' aura contained
With the terrifying dragon's power, if he hadn't been merciful, this dog would have been pissed and feces.
"This is my guest in Dark Moon, Lord Croberus," Shia introduced calmly: "It was just a misunderstanding, Sir Sikari, don't take it to heart."
Sikali nodded and never mentioned the matter of Gia again. Countless thoughts ran through his mind: It turns out that this woman is Cloberus who betrayed the imperial capital and joined the Dark Moon. She is indeed a Demon Emperor-level powerhouse. And Dark Moon
Yue seems to be hiding a more powerful Demon Emperor level expert...
The incident soon subsided, and a welcome ball was held at the palace shortly after the dinner.
Although Chen Rui dislikes this kind of entertainment the most, as the most important financial officer of Dark Moon, he cannot be absent from banquets or dances, so he has to bring Athena with him. As for Jiya, she will definitely not show up to avoid causing trouble.
.
Sikali's coveting of Jiya has made Chen Rui have strong hostility in his heart. If he accepts Cloberus's warning and retreats, if he still doesn't give up on his thoughts, Chen Rui will not hesitate.
Kill him.
Athena wore a pink-orange dress and a set of red gemstone-based jewelry, which was made by Jiya. She was beautiful and generous, exuding confidence and heroism, and attracted a lot of attention as soon as she appeared.
Sikali looked at Chen Rui, who was being held closely by Athena, with a strange look in his eyes. It was more of a kind of jealousy. However, Athena was not Jiya. Not only was she the commander of the three dark moon armies,
One of them is also a peace officer, and his father, George Wells, is the first general in the empire. Warlock Fortress has strong soldiers and horses. It is located in the north of Bai Ling's territory and is also the strongest barrier against the Northern Blood Empire. He can provoke Jiya, but
You will never dare to provoke Athena. If there is any dispute, the entire Bai Ling territory will not be able to withstand General George's anger.
Compared with Athena's grace and grace, Shia, who is dressed in a white dress, looks cold and aloof, like a snow lotus on the ice peak. She is beautiful but cannot be approached. She only seems to be standing next to her delicate and lovely sister Alice.
A little more warmth.
There was also an equally beautiful woman, sitting in front of a large table filled with food without anyone coming close to her. She was consuming the plates of delicious food at an alarming speed without any manners, as if this was the only meaningful thing at the dance.
, and it seemed as if she was not full at all at the previous dinner. In fact, she was the one who ate the most at that time. Needless to say, there was no semicolon except Miss Betty.
In fact, Palanduo's appearance is not bad, but her temperament is much inferior. She looks proud and self-reliant, as if she is the most beautiful and noble woman in the world.
The banquet started. Out of etiquette, Shia accepted Sikali's invitation for the first dance. However, Shia had already prepared. She chose the original palace dance from the demon world and danced a very formal palace dance, a short song.
When it's over, the task is completed.
When Xikali was about to invite him again, he was surrounded by some noble ladies from Dark Moon. To be honest, Xikali's appearance was quite good, and he was a royal family member and a great lord, so he wanted to take the opportunity to get attached to her.
There are quite a few aristocratic ladies.
Chen Rui's first dance was with Athena, but soon, Athena took the initiative to give up the opportunity for the second waltz to her best friend Alice. Since the last Isabella ball incident,
Afterwards, the little Loli danced with Chen Rui at a public dance for the first time. It was said that her long-cherished wish came true, and she was so excited that her face turned red.
However, Alice is not very tall, and the two of them waltzed, which looked a bit weird. In addition to Alice's excitement, there was still some lack of coordination. Despite this, Alice was quite satisfied.
Shia watched her sister and Chen Rui dancing closely hand in hand, and suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. However, when she saw Alice waving to her happily, her eyes softened again.
After two dances, Chen Rui finally got rid of the clingy little lolita, came to Shia, and gently stretched out his hand.
"Would you be honored to ask His Highness to dance?"
Chen Rui was not the first person to invite Shia to dance. After the first dance with Xikali, many nobles and royal families from the Bai Ling territory came to invite him, including Xikali.
. were declined without exception. As for the people on Dark Moon's side, they all knew the Lord's temperament, and no one was willing to touch the wall. Until the Financial Officer appeared.
In Xia's eyes, Chen Rui's action was too skillful. In the underground secret room of the palace, or even in the meeting hall, the two of them had skipped countless times. They were about to refuse with a cold face, but everyone was surprised by his hand.
His eyes couldn't help but catch up with him.
During the dance music, the princess in the white dress and the man in the black dress began to dance gracefully. They immediately became the focus of the audience. Whether it was the elegant and moving dance posture or the tacit understanding of the cooperation, it was enough to eclipse the others. Many people stopped.
He stopped and watched the two people's movements.
"Sister dances so well!" Little Loli said with admiration in her big eyes, "I must learn from my sister another day."
Athena curled her lips. She had to admit in her heart that Shia was indeed a much better dancer than herself - hum! She shouldn't be practicing with this guy every day!
But except for Athena, most people don't think this is the result of the two's regular practice. They only think it is Shia's extraordinary talent. You know, this eldest princess is a famous iceberg beauty and has never been attracted to any man.
If you dare to offend based on color, you will only end up dead.
The jealousy in Xikali's eyes became even stronger, secretly thinking that this Chen Rui must also be one of Shia's suitors, and Shia saw exactly this and used her beauty to firmly control this extraordinary talent.
Human beings. From the previous attitude towards Jia, we can see that human beings have a very strong desire to possess women. This may be a very important breakthrough.
Sikali walked up to his sister and whispered a few words. Parlando snorted dissatisfiedly and finally nodded.
One dance was finally finished. Shia ignored Chen Rui's request to dance the second dance and went straight back to her seat. People immediately gathered around to imitate someone's invitation, but they continued to make mistakes...
Just as Chen Rui was about to walk towards Athena and Alice, a figure suddenly stood in front of him. It was Miss Palando, the sister of Lord Bai Ling.
"Chen Rui, why don't you ask me to dance?" Parlando smiled, but it looked a bit artificial.
Chen Rui frowned: "I'm sorry, Miss Parlando, I'm very tired and need to take a rest."
"Okay, I'll rest with you." It seems that Parlando is really attached.
"Miss Parlando, I'm sorry, I want to be alone for a while... You don't want to disappoint the men who are eager to dance with you." Chen Rui turned towards the males who were paying "attention" not far away.
head.
"Them?" Palanduo showed disdain, and when he turned to Chen Rui, he turned into a friendly expression: "They are just a bunch of incompetent people who follow the crowd. I don't like weak people!"
"I am also a weakling. Now any high-level demon can knock me down." Chen Rui said lightly, turned to leave, but was stopped by Palanduo again.
"You are indeed not good at combat, but you are a well-deserved strongman in some fields. Without you, Dark Moon's economy would never have developed and changed as it has today. The Demon World's most capable internal affairs official is by no means a mere name, no matter where he is.
They will be the most valued talents everywhere!" Palanduo seemed arrogant, but he was also somewhat eloquent, "It's just that Dark Moon's current situation is already at its limit. Don't you think it might be better to change to someone else?
The environment for your talents? Whatever Shia can give you, we can give you. What Shia can’t give you, we can also give you..."
As Palandot's body began to get closer, Chen Rui took two steps back: "I think you have misunderstood, Miss Palandot, thank you very much for your attention and kindness, but I don't want to change the environment."
Parlando still didn't give up. He leaned over slightly, and the groove on his chest was suddenly exposed. He said in an ambiguous tone: "With your mind, don't you know that Shia is just trying to whet your appetite and squeeze you dry step by step?
Is it valuable? I am different. I will give you something substantial, or... you can also advance it in advance..."
Chen Rui sneered in his heart, but remained calm on the surface: "Just pretend you've never heard these words before. Please give way, I'm going to take a rest."
"You don't know how to praise things!" Parlando's face darkened: "She must have been stunned by that bitch named Jia! Hum, let me tell you, this lady is about to marry the Iron Fist Lord of the Blood Evil Empire.
When the time comes, I will propose to the Imperial Capital that I let that little bitch serve as a dowry and come with me to the Iron Fist territory. I will make her the plaything of countless men and make her life worse than death! This is an important diplomatic marriage between countries.
Even Shia doesn’t dare to object!”
Chen Rui didn't expect Palando to be so sinister, with murderous intentions in his heart. He could accept the strategic confrontation even if it failed, but attacking his woman had already touched some kind of reverse scale, regardless of Palando's motives.
Whatever the purpose, it has been included in the must-kill list.
Looking at Palanduo's resentful eyes, Chen Rui took a deep breath, calmed down, and said calmly: "Really? Then, I can't stay in Dark Moon. I can only go to the imperial capital to serve the regent or go to the blood evil to serve.
Emperor Lei Chan. As a bargaining chip for your loyalty, I will put forward a condition, which is to send you to the border or mining area with the most dangerous conditions to work as the lowest-grade camp prostitute. Most of the border residents there are exiled prisoners.
You won't take a shower for two or three months. The smell alone is enough for you to enjoy. Then you drink sewage filled with sediment and eat dry, hard and moldy bread. They haven't had it for a long time.
If you have ever met a woman, I believe you will get the best treatment. But don't worry, a pretty guy like you is the most popular. They won't play with each other to death all at once like they usually do. They will
Save it for your enjoyment..."
Palando's face turned pale, Chen Rui smiled more calmly, and approached Palando affectionately: "Don't doubt my ability and determination, you marrying into the Iron Fist territory is just a traitor who sold out for politics.
You are just a self-righteous bitch. To put it bluntly, you are just a chess piece that can be discarded at any time. But I am different. You said it yourself, the most capable internal affairs minister in the demon world, and the most valued talent no matter where you go! If you want to be
A bitch to many people, you might as well give it a try.”
Palando's body trembled, and his eyes looked at Chen Rui full of fear: "You...you devil!"
"I'm just a weak human being with no power. It's better to give the word "devil" to a self-righteous and vicious woman like you," Chen Rui showed a friendly smile, "If you are mentally prepared that life would be worse than death.
, then feel free to mess with me, I can guarantee that I won’t kill you all at once, but will make you feel comfortable slowly, slowly.”
This smile fell in Parlando's eyes, and it was like seeing an evil ghost in the abyss of hell. He immediately shuddered and did not dare to say a word.
Chen Rui straightened his collar, and out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of the little Lolita who was waving to him in the distance, indicating "Come here quickly", and strode over. This time, Parlando didn't dare to stop her, and just stayed silent.
He stood there, not even daring to look at the "devil" again.
