Chapter 641 “State Teacher’s Beating (4)”
“What is me?”
The state teacher looked utterly clueless as to what’s happening. All he knew was that the king’s furious for some reason and gave him a heavy smack across the face in the next.
Right now that pretty cheek held five fingerprints.
The unfolding event instantly sends both elders and Fire Plume to the ground into a prostrating position. In all seriousness, the fear within the trio has now become overshadowed by embarrassment for being deceived by a fake.
“Xiao Wan?” The state teacher turns around and faces the demon princess who appeared livid at him, “This… what’s happening?”
“If it weren’t for you then my sister-in-law and nephew wouldn’t have left the Demon Realm!” All flustered in her face, the princess resentfully eyes the other side with all her might.
Her Highness left the Demon Realm?
The state teacher was left shocked there. He had heard earlier that the queen disappeared, but his idea revolved around taking a breather outside the palace and not leaving the Demon Realm entirely.
It can’t be, does it have something to do with that one….
“State… State Teacher,” the second elder anxiously wipes some of the sweat from his forehead. “The substitute you created was impersonating His Majesty while he was away and even said some very disrespectful things t o the queen. Her Highness likely got misled by the lies and is now gone….”
The expression on the state teacher’s face just went green at the revelation. No wonder they are so angry at me. I really deserved this punch!
“State Teacher,” Di Xiao Wan sarcastically smirked at the other side. “Aren’t you all powerful? Why are you always prophesizing about my brother when you can’t even predict what your creations would do? Did you not foresee the trouble he would cause?”
Stumped for a proper response, the state teacher twitches in the corner of his mouth at being mocked. Making a long sigh: “You are right, this is totally my fault for being careless. I deserve to be punished for this if that’s what you wish.”
“Why didn’t you tell my brother about making a substitute.” Not satisfied yet, the princess begins to lose control entirely: “If my brother knew then he could’ve told my sister-in-law, then none of this….”
Hanging that head in utter shame, the state teacher didn’t have the face to look up: “If the king knew, do you think he would allow the substitute to continue to live?”
Considering the level of pride the king has, he would never allow such a person to exist. This includes the fact that the substitute only existed to die in his stead. If not for this reason, I wouldn’t have had to hide that person for so long either….
Full of blood in his eyes now, Di Cang glares murder at the one responsible: “I will settle this score with you later. Now, I’m giving you one hour to bring me that substitute, otherwise you can disappear for good!”
“Alright, I will bring him here right away.” Cupping his hand in compliance, the state teacher didn’t dare to say more and hurried for the main doorway.
With the person gone and out looking for the instigator, the area has once again fallen quiet with only the second elder shivering there by himself. The senior wanted to seek help from the first elder, unfortunately for him, the older one didn’t want to help and turned away like the rest on the side.
If it wasn’t this stupid thing being used by that substitute then Her Highness wouldn’t have left the palace!
“Di Xiao Wan!”
The man’s harsh voice instantly sends a shudder down the princess’s back. Turning around rigidly, “Did you call for me Brother?”
“Yan Yan’s departure is also your fault.” Though less bloodthirsty, those eyes still gave off a frosty look that nearly caused the girl to collapse to the ground.
Oh I’m screwed now! I really didn’t know one’s scent can be impersonated!
