Chapter 137: Chapter 137 : The End Of A Love Story

"Otherwise?"

Pain flashed across Zhang Fengxi’s face when he heard that single word.

"Would you prefer that the First Demon King kill me? Is that what you want?" Liu Wenyuan continued.

"Wenyuan, stop making it about you," Zhang Fengxi snapped. "You had a choice. You could have told me! You could have told your father! Why must you collude with the First Demon King and deliver Xie Jianyu to his hands???"

"Because you cannot take your eyes off him...!!!" Liu Wenyuan shouted.

"LIU WENYUAN!!!"

Liu Wenyuan trembled from head to toe before he broke down and cried.

Tears fell past his fair cheeks as he spoke, "I did it for us. Prince Fengxi, he seduced you, I know it. As long as he’s out of our lives, you and I can be happy together."

"..."

"Prince Fengxi, please."

Liu Wenyuan took Zhang Fengxi’s hands in his, but the hands quickly slipped away.

Zhang Fengxi pressed a hand against his face. He could not bear to look at Liu Wenyuan’s face.

"Dear gods," he said slowly. "I don’t know what to say. I cannot stay. I must go."

"Prince Fengxi!"

Liu Wenyuan did not want to give up. He grabbed Zhang Fengxi’s hand again.

"I love you. I promise that I won’t do anything like this again in the future. Just this one time. Please forgive me."

Zhang Fengxi stared at Liu Wenyuan’s pitifully heartwrenching expression. In his past life, he would do anything to wipe every bit of pain and sadness from Liu Wenyuan’s face.

He grieved for their lost child.

He wrongfully avenged Liu Wenyuan’s death by killing Xie Jianyu.

Right now, he was barely able to recognize the person he thought he knew his whole life long. The person he loved.

Was Liu Wenyuan this kind of person? A ruthless person who spared no mercy for those in his way?

Was this the kind of person that Zhang Fengxi liked?

No.

"Fengxi, we, the tigers, stick to our principles no matter what," Zhang Zhiyuan told his son many times.

"We are first and foremost righteous. We are only loyal to those who are equally righteous.

This is the quality that you look for when you look for a friend, a spouse, a colleague, or even a subordinate.

Never forget that, Fengxi."

Zhang Zhiyuan’s words echoed in Zhang Fengxi’s mind.

It turned out that he selected the wrong person to be his spouse.

He should never have come back to Liu Wenyuan.

Not after he sabotaged Xie Jianyu’s dance performance.

It was his fault.

He was the one who allowed Liu Wenyuan to carry out this crime.

He did not know how to start apologizing to Xie Jianyu.

Zhang Fengxi withdrew his hand from Liu Wenyuan’s grip again. The omega’s heart dropped to the bottom of his stomach.

"Prince Fengxi..."

The gaze that his betrothed alpha gave him was no different than that of a stranger.

"I’m sorry," Zhang Fengxi said with a cold voice. "I cannot condone your horrible deed."

"... Prince Fengxi, I am sorry."

A cheerless laughter escaped Zhang Fengxi’s lips.

"Sorry because you did it, or because you were caught?"

"..."

Liu Wenyuan refused to answer.

It was not necessary, because they both knew the answer.

Zhang Fengxi climbed back onto his mount and gave Xiao Huang a nudge with his knee.

Liu Wenyuan no longer called out for him, and he too no longer wanted to look back.

---------------------

Xie Jianyu stared at his reflection in the mirror. An omega he did not know stared back at him.

No, it was not that he did not know the omega. He saw the same face looking back at him from the mirror in his bed chamber once, almost two years ago.

He thought that he would never see him again in this life, but here he was in flesh and blood.

"Crown Prince, do you like gemstones or gold more?" a female demon showed him a selection of hairpins.

Xie Jianyu glared at her.

"Neither."

"That won’t do, Crown Prince. You are meeting with His Majesty The First Demon King soon. You must show him the best side of yours."

Xie Jianyu felt sick to the stomach.

And the best side of his was the omega side?

If that was not an insult, Xie Jianyu did not know what was.

After a lot of coaxing and equally a lot of rejections, the female demon gave up. The First Demon King himself decided to kidnap this unruly prisoner, so he surely did not expect much obedience from the young man.

"Follow me, please, Crown Prince."

Xie Jianyu rose to his feet. The gold bracelets that circled his ankles and adorned his wrists felt like shackles.

As he walked, the jingling sounds they made were no different than a public announcement.

As if it was not enough, the female demon insisted to put a heavy fur cape around his shoulders. It hung down his back and dragged behind like dead weight.

Xie Jianyu glanced left and right as he dragged his pesky clothing across the First Demon King’s palace.

He did not remember many details from the last time he was there, but the palace changed a lot. It might have suffered serious damage from the time the two other Demon Kings raised their forces to dethrone the First Demon King.

"We are here."

The iron door swung open, revealing a great hall behind it.

The first thing that caught Xie Jianyu’s eyes as soon as he stepped foot into the hall was the two pillars that soared high up to the ceiling.

Nailed to the two pillars were the heads of the former Third and Fourth Demon Kings. The lower halves of the pillars were coated with the respective demons’ dried blood.

Sitting in a lazy position in the middle of the two pillars, basking in glory, was the First Demon King. Next to him stood his loyal subordinate, the Three-Eyed Realm Wanderer.

"Welcome, my bride," the ruler of the entire Demonic Realm greeted Xie Jianyu with a smirk. "Welcome to my humble abode."
