Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin laughed instead.

"No, you will."

"why?"

"Because I want you to be the Demon Lord."

Ghost Dancer paused, only managing to utter the word "you".

Chi Junlin had already raised his hand and pulled her in front of him, lifted her chin, and lightly kissed her thin, cold lips.

Ghost Dancer was caught off guard by Akagi Junlin's sudden move, and a slightly dazed expression appeared on her bright face.

Chi Junlin took her hands in his again and gazed tenderly into the eyes of the Ghost Dancer.

Then he smiled and said, "I want you to become the Demon Lord, because only when you become the Demon Lord can I feel at ease with the Xiangxi Demon Sect."

"Kiboshi, you should be able to understand my helplessness, right?"

Hearing Chi Junlin's tender words, Gui Wuji couldn't help but lower her head in embarrassment.

The love she had never truly experienced before made her heart flutter and she felt increasingly at a loss.

She could only mutter a complaint under her breath, "That's true, but you... you haven't even let me know your real name... how can I trust you?"

Chi Junlin smiled, then put on a friendly smile and whispered to her, "Do you want to know who I am?"

The Demon Dancer nodded slightly.

So Chi Junlin leaned close to her ear and whispered something.

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's words, Gui Wuji was taken aback.

He immediately looked at Chi Junlin with an incredulous expression and said, "You—"

"Shh!"

Chi Junlin gestured to Gui Wuji not to say anything.

But the more Ghost Dancer did so, the more unbelievable it became.

How is that possible?

On the surface, she is Lin Jun, the Grand Protector of the Demonic Sect who has betrayed the righteous path, and also the disciple of the leader of the martial arts alliance...

His true identity is...

Before Ghost Dancer could figure it out, Red King pressed her against the wall again and kissed her with an increasingly forceful attitude, wantonly plundering her soft lips.

"Chirp...sizzle...sizzle...chirp..."

Ghost Dancer felt dizzy, her heart filled with both surprise and enjoyment.

But if her identity is truly that of the current Marquis of Anguo, Chi Junlin, the Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Army...

So what she said earlier about needing him to oversee the Xiangxi Demonic Sect must be true...

As for Chi Junlin, for her, the fact that Gui Wuji was the Demon Lord was not solely due to self-interest.

It may also be due to Chi Junlin's interests and hobbies.

Just like when Chi Junlin propelled Tong Yan to the position of leader of the martial arts alliance.

The demon lord, Oni Muhime, is what excites her even more...

Then she whispered in the panting Demon Dancer's ear, "So tonight...would you be willing to share a bed with me, my dear...Demon Lord?"

With a dazed look in her eyes, Ghost Dancer hummed in agreement, her arms already involuntarily wrapped around Akatsuki's neck.

The two couldn't help themselves and kissed.

The room was filled with deep affection.

They seemed to have forgotten for a moment that there were two other people hanging from the beams inside the room by red thread.

Di Shanshan watched the two of them kissing passionately, struggling with her body, her face showing some resentment.

Yan Sijun lowered her head somewhat dejectedly, seemingly having accepted the fact.

She glanced at Di Shanshan, but her eyes conveyed her meaning perfectly.

It's all your fault!

Di Shanshan understood what Yan Sijun wanted to say just by sensing her gaze.

Naturally, he glared back defiantly.

It’s none of my business!

The sobs of the two, along with the faint sounds of their intimate kisses, could be heard coming from the room.

Beidou sat on the roof, shaking his head with a helpless expression.

Then he took another bite of the large centipede in his hand.

It seemed that the centipede hadn't completely expelled its toxins. After chewing for a while, Beidou finally felt a dizzying sensation, as if the world was shaking.

It felt a little dizzy, but also very comfortable.

It gives the impression of someone who is drunk.

Beidou was very satisfied with this feeling and couldn't help but stretch out and lie on the roof.

She let out a comfortable burp, enjoying the crisp chirping and singing under the leisurely starry sky, a sound full of springtime charm.

He sighed contentedly.

Then he murmured to himself.

Ah, how delightful!

Right there in the underworld, at the same time that Chi Junlin placed Gui Wuji on the throne as the new Demon Lord.

Meanwhile, Tong Yan was still on the banks of the Chu River, searching for Chi Junlin's whereabouts.

Because Chi Junlin had only been back in Yindu for a short time, and in order not to alert Lan Gexing, it was a clandestine operation, and no one was notified.

So to this day, no one knows exactly where the Crimson Emperor is.

After searching tirelessly for days without finding any clues, many people gave up.

Currently, even Wenren Tianxia has disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where he has gone.

Among the martial arts practitioners who set off from the South to the Underworld, perhaps only the martial arts alliance leader, Tong Yan, is still diligently searching for the whereabouts of his beloved disciple.

However, besides her, there was another group of people near Chushui who were also helping to search for Chi Junlin's whereabouts.

These were soldiers from the Southern Garrison under the command of Jiang Mao, the military governor of the Southern Kingdom.

Tong Yan originally did not want the matter of Chi Junlin's disappearance to become a public knowledge.

Unfortunately, the impact of this matter was too great, and the military officer in charge of logistics sent by the garrison felt that he could not handle it.

After learning the inside story, she still informed Jiang Mao.

Upon hearing that Chi Junlin had disappeared, Jiang Mao was terrified.

After all, now that Jiang Mao has surrendered, he is now a complete member of the Chi clan.

If something really happens to Chi Junlin, then as a traitorous member of the Jiang family dynasty, he will definitely not have a good outcome.

So he immediately chose to suppress the matter and did not report it to the imperial court.

He rode three horses day and night to personally rush to the Chu River site to guide the search and rescue work of the Southern Guard.

A force of tens of thousands of soldiers set up extensive checkpoints along the river, hoping to find any clue related to the Crimson Emperor.

However, no news about Red King's Landing has been found yet, and the strict investigations and secret visits by the garrison soldiers have caused widespread resentment among the local residents.

Each village conducted a small search every day and a large search every three days.

Such repeated investigations would be unbearable for anyone.

However, due to confidentiality requirements, Jiang Mao did not clearly explain to his subordinates who he was looking for.

So the soldiers could only report whatever came to mind, without any clear understanding.

Many local thieves were caught, but no "clues" were found that would satisfy the governor.

The same is true today.

Near a village checkpoint, a group of villagers who were about to cross the river were stopped by soldiers at the checkpoint.

As they searched each person one by one, a murmur of complaints arose from the crowd.

Just then, a ferry gently approached the shore from upstream.

A young woman dressed in black, accompanied by a little girl with white hair, had just stepped ashore.

Without a doubt, it was Chi Junlin and Beidou who came down the waterway from Yindu.

After Chi Junlin and Beidou disembarked from the ferry, they saw the checkpoint set up here.

She casually inquired with the surrounding villagers and soon found out what had happened.

The person a group of soldiers were searching for was in her early twenties, with a handsome appearance and striking features. Who else could it be but her?

However, before Chi Jun could go up and reveal his identity, another commotion was heard.

The two went up to take a look and saw that it was a wedding procession from the village, carrying the bride towards the ferry.

A group of farmers were blocking the red wedding sedan chair carrying the bride, preventing the soldiers from getting closer.

Some villagers grumbled unhappily, "The bride hasn't even seen the groom yet, how can she see a stranger... This soldier is really outrageous... outrageous!"

Seeing that they had incurred the wrath of the crowd, the soldiers were in an awkward position.

However, the squad leader, who looked like a scoundrel, immediately retorted angrily, "I don't care about you! The governor has ordered that any young woman appearing at the ferry must have her identity verified before being allowed to pass!"

So what if she's your bride! Who knows if she's the one we're looking for!

My advice to you is to immediately open the sedan chair and let the woman inside out. Only after verifying her identity should you leave.

Otherwise, anyone who obstructs us again will be charged with obstructing official business and thrown into a military prison!

He then made his stance clear, ordering his soldiers to push aside the able-bodied young farmers in front of him.

He then walked to the sedan chair himself, preparing to lift the door and pull the bride out to see her.

The matchmaker standing to the side thought to herself, "This is bad. If this soldier really brings the bride into the public eye, will the marriage still be able to go through?"

He quickly took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to the sergeant, saying, "Sir, please be lenient. This bride's veil really can't be lifted. Please, sir, have mercy..."

"Get out of my way! Don't interfere with my official duties!"

The sergeant grabbed the matchmaker and went straight to the bridal sedan chair, intending to lift the curtain.

Then a slightly frightened gasp came from inside the sedan chair.

The sedan bearers, young and strong, dared not speak out in their anger, but one of them roared and seemed ready to fight the soldiers to the death.

A conflict is about to break out at the port checkpoint, potentially leading to bloodshed.

Then a slightly authoritative, thunderous roar suddenly came from the side.

"Wait!"

The soldiers were stunned for a moment, then immediately turned to look in the direction from which the sound came.

Then, a handsome and spirited young woman slowly walked out from the crowd.

He then frowned and said to the soldiers, "Who gave you permission to set up a checkpoint here?"

The sergeant recognized the woman, but her demeanor was authoritative and exuded official authority.

Although this sergeant had never met any high-ranking officials, he could tell that the woman in front of him was no ordinary person.

This will make him afraid to offend.

So he asked suspiciously, "And who are you?"

"I?"

Chi Junlin snorted coldly and said, "I am the person you are looking for!"

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's reply, the sergeant was taken aback.

He could hardly believe it, but upon closer inspection, the woman before him did indeed bear some resemblance to his superior's description.
