Chapter 139 The eldest sister kidnapped the demon king
Moreover, the demons do not care about the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children. In other words, whoever is the most capable among the princes can sit in the highest position.
Wei Zhuyun’s talent made them completely unable to sit still.
Although there is no emphasis on hierarchy, there are still factions within the demon clan. The largest one is naturally the lineage of the Demon Lord, followed by the lineage of the Demon Queen. The lineage of the Demon Queen is second only to the Demon Lord, so every generation has produced a Demon Queen, and their status is very stable.
But the Demon Lord has been wary of them for a long time and has long wanted to weaken their power, but he has never found an opportunity. Now Wei Zhuyun has emerged as a rising star. If he can defeat the eldest prince born to the Demon Queen, the status of the Demon Queen's lineage will naturally be shaken.
As a result, Wei Zhuyun, who was only three years old, began to be plotted against by all parties, both openly and covertly.
Cui Rumei, who was always calm, got angry with the Demon Lord for the first time and wanted to take her son away.
She didn't want the damn position of Demon Lord, and she knew very well that no matter how powerful Wei Zhuyun was, the people of the Demon Clan would never accept a human-demon hybrid as the Demon Lord.
Pushing him out now is just to make him a target, and we don't know who he will be used for in the end.
At this time, Wei Lanhao fell in love with a demon woman and gave birth to the seventh prince Wei Ming.
The seventh prince is also talented, and most importantly, his biological mother is favored, and his mother's family is loyal to the Demon Lord. He is a good candidate to inherit the throne of the Demon Lord in the future.
Cui Rumei was determined to leave, but Wei Lanhao refused. He promised to protect Wei Zhuyun and said that she could leave but her son had to stay.
But how could a mother be willing to give up her own child?
If she leaves, who in this huge Demon Palace will be able to treat Wei Zhuyun sincerely?
So she suppressed her nausea and stayed to protect Wei Zhuyun.
This wait lasted another three years.
When Wei Zhuyun was six years old, Wei Lanhao went out to conquer the rebellious race. The Demon Queen was in charge in the Demon Palace. Before leaving, Wei Lanhao asked Cui Rumei to be careful and sent a few confidants to stay behind to protect her and her son.
But there was a traitor among the confidants, who beat Cui Rumei and forcibly took Wei Zhuyun away.
When Cui Rumei and others found Wei Zhuyun, he was lying in a pool of blood, with only one breath left.
His foundation was destroyed, his blood was forcibly drawn out, his body was covered with wounds, and he was no different from a disabled person. There was no way he could be saved.
Cui Rumei was so grief-stricken that he went crazy and killed the traitor who took him away. Then he jumped off the cliff of the demon clan's forbidden area holding Wei Zhuyun's body.
Before landing, Cui Rumei hugged the child tightly in her arms and blocked most of the impact herself.
Cui Rumei died just like that. Her blood flowed into the ground, but accidentally awakened the remaining soul that had been sleeping for many years.
That remnant soul is also an ancestor of the demon clan, but unlike Wei Xiaoyue, that ancestor does not like cultivation but loves beauties. This is the burial place of the couple.
And his wife just happened to be a mortal.
Seeing Wei Zhuyun who had just died, the ancestor felt pity. If he and his wife had offspring, they would probably be a hybrid of human and demon, just like Wei Zhuyun.
He exhausted all his life's demonic energy and spent forty-nine days to reshape Wei Zhuyun's meridians and dantian, recalling his soul and allowing him to be reborn in the icy lake.
After Wei Zhuyun woke up, the ancestor passed on everything he had learned to him, and before disappearing, he said to him: "Until you are sure of eradicating the root of the problem, you might as well bide your time and wait for the next opportunity."
Wei Zhuyun remembered this sentence, knelt down to thank his ancestors and left the forbidden area. He cut himself a few times and lay down beside a stream. He was discovered by patrolling demon soldiers and taken back to the Demon Palace.
At this time, he already had the inheritance of his ancestor, and because his ancestor was only a remnant soul, his strength was naturally greatly reduced. However, if he could refine it all, he could also fight with the eldest prince.
But he is still too young now and needs to stay away from the enemy.
So he used the method taught by his ancestors to seal his meridians and dantian.
At first glance, he seemed to be a useless person. When Wei Lanhao asked him about it, he just said that he didn't remember anything and didn't even know who he was.
Wei Lanhao examined his body and found that his meridians were blocked and his dantian was exhausted. He sighed and said nothing, then handed him over to the maid in the Demon Palace to raise.
He sent people to collect Cui Rumei's body and buried her properly, and never asked any more questions after that.
Wei Zhuyun went from being a popular figure to being ignored by everyone, and completely became a transparent person in the Demon Palace.
No one targeted him anymore, but no one took him seriously either.
In fact, he had never forgotten the hatred between them mother and son. He practiced secretly and secretly sent people to investigate what happened that year.
After knowing that the mastermind behind this was actually the Demon Queen and Wei Ming's biological mother, he began to plan how to overthrow them.
When Wei Zhuyun was 20 years old, the third prince and the second princess colluded to force the emperor to abdicate. Wei Lanhao was accidentally tricked and almost died.
At the critical moment, Wei Zhuyun led his men to break out of the siege, rescued the Demon Lord, killed the third prince in full view of everyone, captured the second princess alive, and became famous in one battle.
The princes were fighting to the death, and he took advantage of the situation to reap the benefits. He placed Wei Lanhao under house arrest, captured the Demon Queen and Wei Ming's mother, and killed them without any explanation.
The eldest prince led his troops to encircle and suppress him, but fell into his trap and died with his eyes open.
Only Wei Ming was left, so he ran away.
That’s why what happened next happened.
……
Ming Nan sighed after hearing this, "So when I met you, you were trying to lure Wei Ming out?"
"At that time, Wei Ming had hooked up with other demon kings and wanted to kill me and seize power. I used the same trick to lure him out. Not only did I want to get rid of him, but I also wanted to catch all the other people who had ulterior motives."
"Then your injury at that time..."
"The injury is real." Wei Zhuyun chuckled and rubbed her face. "You shouldn't have been injured so badly. It was just that the cold poison happened to flare up at that time, and someone took advantage of you, so you got hurt more seriously."
Mingnan turned over and sat up, holding his hand and asked, "How did you get the cold poison?"
"My original foundation was fire, but it was destroyed by someone and reshaped by my ancestor. However, his foundation was ice, and the two conflicted. It was difficult to completely merge, so rejection reactions would occur every now and then. My ancestor's power was strong and overbearing, and I couldn't suppress it, so I suffered from it. When it attacked, my coldness increased greatly, and my whole body became stiff. If I wasn't treated in time, my whole body would freeze into ice and I would die."
"I see." The question that had been lingering in my mind was finally resolved.
Mingnan breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little curious, "So how do you usually deal with cold poison?"
Speaking of this, Wei Zhuyun's expression became a little subtle.
Mingnan raised an eyebrow: "Huh? Can't tell?"
"You and I share life and death, there is nothing we cannot say, but I'm afraid you will dislike it if I say it." Wei Zhuyun glanced at her and whispered, "In the past, people would prepare the blood of the most yang monster and add some strong medicinal herbs to it using a secret method. When the cold poison attacks, drink a bottle and it will suppress it a little bit."
Mingnan laughed, "What's wrong with that?"
"Don't you dislike the taste of blood?"
Wei Zhuyun pursed his lips.
"I don't like what others say, but I can barely accept what you say." Mingnan held Wei Zhuyun's face and rubbed it, "Will your cold poison still flare up now?"
“I won’t do that after I’ve refined Wei Xiaoyue’s power.” Wei Zhuyun grabbed her hand and kissed it: “Don’t worry.”
"Okay." Ming Nan smiled, and suddenly remembered something, grabbing his hand, "By the way, what about Wei Lanhao? Is he still alive?"
