"This will be your room from now on."
"Let me know if you need anything."
Luo Ruying led Yue Qingyou to choose a room in the inner courtyard, speaking with great kindness.
"Thank you, Madam."
Yue Qingyou bowed slightly in gratitude.
Every movement of hers exuded elegance and respect.
This made Luo Ruying even more curious about Ning Yechen's family background.
What kind of family background could produce such an outstanding and well-mannered maid...?
Ning Yechen had been sticking close to Luo Ruying, constantly on guard to see if Yue Qingyou would do anything strange or say anything odd.
Now that Yue Qingyou was always by Luo Ruying's side, he had no chance to talk to her alone.
And his voice transmission was completely ignored by her!
It was as if she had him figured out, knowing he wouldn't dare to make a move against her in front of Luo Ruying!
Just then, Luo Hongye, who was nestled in Luo Ruying's arms, raised her head and softly said:
"Mommy, Yeye is hungry..."
"My wife, go and prepare something for Yeye to eat first."
"Leave this to me."
Ning Yechen seized the opportunity, immediately interjecting.
As he spoke, he pushed Luo Ruying out the door.
"Alright, you two chat then."
Luo Ruying thought that Ning Yechen probably hadn't seen his attendants in a long time and wanted to catch up. She didn't think much of it, and carried Luo Hongye away.
"Then I'll go help Madam."
Yue Qingyou wanted to follow and help Luo Ruying, but Ning Yechen stopped her:
"You stay!"
"I still have things to tell you…!"
After confirming that Luo Ruying had gone far away, Ning Yechen immediately closed the door and, with a stern expression, questioned Yue Qingyou:
"What are you doing here?"
"To serve the Demon Sovereign and his wife and little princess."
After Luo Ruying was gone, Yue Qingyou immediately adopted an extremely respectful attitude, placing a hand over her chest as she replied.
"I am no longer the Demon Sovereign of the Demon Realm, you don't need to stay by my side."
"I don't need your service either, get out of here!"
Ning Yechen said with a straight face, driving Yue Qingyou away.
With them around, how could he possibly live a quiet, ordinary life with his wife and children!
Yue Qingyou's expression became solemn upon hearing this. She knelt on one knee, her palm still resting on her chest, and looked up at Ning Yechen, solemnly saying:
"You will always be the only Sovereign of the Demon Realm!"
"We will always follow by your side, just as we swore that day!"
"If you truly want us to leave forever, you'll have to kill us with your own hands."
Ning Yechen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he gently raised his hand. The void around Yue Qingyou immediately began to warp and twist!
Yet Yue Qingyou remained unmoving, with no intention of resisting.
After some hesitation, Ning Yechen sighed helplessly and conceded:
"Get up..."
Sometimes, he was truly bothered by how fanatically loyal his subordinates were...
It made it impossible for him to retire...
He clearly instructed them not to look for him, yet they had been searching for over a hundred years...
He couldn't bring himself to kill such subordinates.
Yue Qingyou had certainly figured this out, knowing full well that he wouldn't actually lay a hand on her...!
So, he truly had no recourse against her!
This was what infuriated him the most!
"Thank you, Demon Sovereign."
Yue Qingyou's lips curved into a faint smile without any pretense, as if nothing had happened, and she stood up.
"Speak, how many people did you let into the Demon Realm...?"
Ning Yechen sat down on a chair, resting his cheek on his hand. His expression was indifferent and aloof, just like the Demon Sovereign of old, as he asked Yue Qingyou.
Seeing Ning Yechen's Demon Sovereign demeanor again, Yue Qingyou felt very pleased.
"Reporting to the Demon Sovereign, I have ordered all of the Thirteen Demon Gods to descend into the human realm." "I have also mobilized the First Legion, the Third Legion, and the Sixth Legion, and they will all descend into the human realm soon!"
"The leaders of each legion, as well as the Shadow Guards and the Imperial Guard Legion belonging to you, have also arrived in the city one after another!"
"I have also arranged identities for each of them to hide in various places within the city, ready to await your orders at any time!"
"We will absolutely protect the safety of the Madam and the little princess!"
"Of course, we will not disturb Demon Sovereign, you, the Madam, and the little princess's lives."
Ning Yechen: "…"
"This is already very disturbing to this Sovereign's life!!!"
Ning Yechen gently touched his forehead, unable to resist complaining.
The Thirteen Demon Gods have all descended into the human realm, plus nearly a million people from three legions!!!
That doesn't even count the number of Shadow Guards and the Imperial Guard Legion!
This doesn't look like they're here to protect; it clearly looks like they're about to attack the entire human realm!
Just this, and they still want him to live a peaceful life...?
"Keep the minimum personnel in the city, and all legions are to return to the Demon Realm!"
Ning Yechen glanced at Yue Qingyou and ordered unhappily.
With Yue Qingyou's personnel deployment, they could flatten the entire human realm…
Yue Qingyou looked hesitant, and stated:
"Demon Sovereign, wouldn't this be unsafe?"
"It's already safe enough!"
"It's too safe!"
"With you and this Sovereign here, it's more than enough."
Ning Yechen was speechless.
Originally, with him around, there was no need for any protection. Yet, Yue Qingyou had still made such a big show of calling so many people.
Just the Thirteen Demon Gods alone were all at the Immortal Emperor level, not to mention Yue Qingyou had come in person…
Hearing Ning Yechen's last sentence, Yue Qingyou felt it was a sign of trust towards her. She smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
"I understand. Everything will be done according to the Demon Sovereign's will."
"For the time being, you will stay in the house as a maid…"
Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Yue Qingyou, Ning Yechen had no choice but to keep her at home for the time being.
Yue Qingyou was a very shrewd and conscientious person; even if she was around, she likely wouldn't disturb his life.
Besides, with Yue Qingyou by Luo Ruying's and her daughter's side, he could be more at ease.
Her presence couldn't compare to Meng Niu and the other two…
"I have always been Demon Sovereign's personal maid," Yue Qingyou refuted Ning Yechen's words with a serious expression.
Ning Yechen didn't bother arguing with her and instead summoned Meng Niu and the other two. He then instructed them:
"The three of you, from now on, when I'm not here, you will obey her in everything."
"Yes, Master…!"
Meng Niu and the other two respectfully bowed their heads in response.
They already knew Ning Yechen's identity as the Demon Sovereign and had deeply witnessed Yue Qingyou's terrifying strength, so they had no objections...
Yue Qingyou knitted her brows as she looked at Meng Niu and the others. She then turned to Ning Yechen and asked:
"Demon Sovereign, even if you want to keep pets, you should raise some more powerful ones."
"These three are too weak and utterly useless."
"They're not even as good as the Hellhounds at the entrance of your Demon Palace."
"How about I get you a new batch in the Demon Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Niu and the other two were immediately terrified, their eyes welling up with tears as they looked at Ning Yechen...
If the master didn't want them anymore, wouldn't they be directly dealt with…?
Even if they were really weak, they shouldn't be completely useless, right…?
They had learned how to wash clothes, cook meals, clean, and chop firewood!
Ning Yechen also looked speechless at Meng Niu and the other two. This was not at all how a Demon King should act…
"Keep the three of them. I quite like keeping them around."
"In that case, I'll do as the Demon Sovereign wishes."
Seeing that Ning Yechen had already said so, Yue Qingyou didn't press the matter.
"Thank you, master!"
Meng Niu and the other two burst into tears of gratitude.
The Demon Sovereign didn't despise them…
They had survived again…
