Chapter 643: My Wife Will Always Be You
The Peacock Great Demon King sighed and said, "At a time like this, are you still going to be angry with me? My wife has always been, and will always be, you."
The queen consort was stunned. He was saying this to her in front of Su Qin? And at a time when the Peacock Demon clan was facing extermination? Her resentment lessened slightly, but when she saw Su Qin's beautiful face, anger flared up again, and she snorted coldly.
The Peacock Great Demon King seemed unfazed by her attitude and said gently, "Maybe you don’t believe me, but let me tell you this again: In this lifetime, I've only ever loved you. Do you remember what I said to you on our wedding night? I told you I would do everything in my power during my lifetime to restore the Peacock Demon clan to its former glory, to make our clan stand among the strongest. Only then would I be worthy of your devotion and kindness.
"You're right. Without you, I could never have become the clan leader, let alone the lord of Kali City. When I first met you, I had no ambitions. Back then, you were a lofty princess, and although I was from the right family, I was just an insignificant junior. You were a year older than me. I often secretly watched you, thinking that you looked so beautiful, so noble!
"As we grew older, I worked hard, but my talent was just average. At best, I was a bit smarter than other clan members. In terms of strength and bloodline, I wasn't particularly outstanding. But you were different. You were a direct heir to the Emperor's lineage, with the noblest bloodline in our clan. Yet, when it came time for you to take a husband, you chose me. You chose someone who wasn't particularly exceptional. Do you know how I felt at that moment? I felt dizzy, as if I was on top of the world. I've never dared to ask why you chose me. Can you tell me now?"
Listening to the Peacock Great Demon King's gentle narration, the queen consort's expression gradually changed. She had thought he had long forgotten all this, but now he was recounting it so clearly.
It had been decades since these events, but as she listened to him now, the icy expression on the queen consort's face gradually melted.
"Because you're smart. You were the smartest of our generation," the queen consort murmured. "The first time I noticed you was during a clan school exam. I studied alone at the clan school, but each test I took was the same as yours. You couldn't see my papers, but I could see yours. There were rankings for the clan school exams, you know? Although your bloodline power and combat strength weren't the highest, you were always the absolute top when it came to knowledge."
Pausing for a moment, the queen consort then continued, "And I was always second."
The Peacock Great Demon King was stunned. "So, because you could never beat me in exams, you..."
"Never changed? If you've never changed, then what about her?" the queen consort said, turning to look at Su Qin.
The Peacock Great Demon King sighed. "That was all for the promise I made when we got married. And now, it’s time for me to tell you everything. Today is my last day in this world, and there is nothing left to hide. We need to clarify everything. Come, Lin Ximo, let's have our final battle. Let my wife and Su Qin witness it."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, creating a silver arc that enveloped Su Qin and the queen consort, making them disappear instantly and reappear high in the sky.
Standing on the platform, Mei Gongzi was shocked to see her mother taken away. She was about to chase after them, but Tang San grabbed her and held her back.
Mei Gongzi turned to look at him in confusion. Tang San sighed softly and said, "The Peacock Great Demon King's lifeforce is already irreversibly drained. His physique, bloodline power, and divine consciousness all took serious damage because of that fight; then, during your tribulation, he suffered from the aftershocks as he protected you. His life is at its end. But your mother will be fine, trust me. Let's wait here and let the older generation resolve their own matters. Don't worry, the Peacock Demon clan will be fine, and so will Kali City."
Mei Gongzi's heart stirred, and she asked in confusion, "Do you know something?"
Tang San nodded, "Your father told me some things, but I promised him I wouldn't tell you yet. It's for your own good. When you become an Emperor in the future, you'll understand."
Mei Gongzi was taken aback. "What exactly is it?"
Tang San simply shook his head lightly. He couldn't lie to her, but it was also not the right time to tell her.
A beam of crystalline light streaked across the sky, soaring into the heights. Instantly, the entire sky was filled with the powerful divine consciousness pressure of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor.
