Th-th-th-th-this, what is this doing?!
Lihua Jiang gasped, her eyes wide open, staring blankly at Alex and Kurome.
What on earth is going on here?
She covered her face with both hands, feeling her face burning intensely, her body twisting involuntarily.
Seeing her like this, C.C. patted her shoulder: "This is what I mentioned before; you'll get used to it."
"And if I haven't guessed wrong, this is just the beginning."
"???"
Lihua Jiang blinked, her face full of question marks.
She recognized every word in these sentences, but how they were combined together made her unable to understand them.
"Hey, Kurome, you thieving cat."
"Yeah, you're too cunning."
Freya and the others, watching all this and seeing Kurome leveling up, could no longer care about the presence of a newcomer.
They were all working hard on their cultivation.
They were just a little bit away from a breakthrough.
Several people immediately pounced over, starting to fight for the resources that belonged to them to become stronger.
In an instant, the scene became incredibly chaotic.
"What are you fighting for? Everyone has a share."
Alex smiled helplessly and began to use the [Thousand Transformations] Skill.
This Skill, combined with [Steel Body], [Rubber Body], and [Weight Manipulation], had a different effect.
It was very suitable for leveling up all the Dependents together.
[experience 1064305]
[experience 1008]
[experience 1089]
The higher the level of the Dependents, the higher the experience Alex gained, which made his fighting spirit soar and his posture more upright.
Seeing this, Anya also mentally prepared herself and directly approached: "Master, Anya also wants to become stronger. Let me help you."
"Master, and me too." C.C. walked over with elegant steps, her charming eyes revealing a hint of determination.
Feeling the will of his Dependents, Alex nodded vigorously.
As expected.
His Dependents were all excellent.
Without needing any urging from him, they all had a passionate heart to become stronger.
Only Lihua Jiang, forgotten in the corner, was already shivering.
"Th-there's still a living person here?"
"Oh right, there's you too."
Alex didn't stop his actions, looking at her playfully, and invited: "How about it, do you want to improve your strength?"
"A friendly reminder: Low-Class Devils are at the bottom among the Dependents."
Lihua Jiang's body stiffened slightly, and she managed to say: "No, no need."
"I, I just became a Demon, I haven't adapted to this power yet."
As soon as she said this, Lihua Jiang walked outside with a stiff body.
"Th-that, I won't disturb you all anymore."
Bang!
The door was slammed shut.
Lihua Jiang held onto the wall, feeling as if her heart was about to jump out.
She hesitated for a moment, then curled up in the corner.
This is her own bedroom. Going out now would be too conspicuous.
"Right, as long as I fall asleep, it'll be fine."
"In that case, it will be morning when I wake up."
Lihua Jiang took a breath and began to concentrate on entering her dreams.
That day, late at night.
Lihua Jiang still had her eyes wide open.
Falling asleep... was simply impossible.
She stretched out her hands and covered her ears.
But those melodic sounds kept drilling in.
Lihua Jiang hugged her legs with both hands, subconsciously rubbing against them.
Her pretty face was already flushed pink.
"The sound... why is it still there?"
She muttered to herself subconsciously.
"Is it really right for me to become a Demon?"
Before this, at least I didn't have problems sleeping.
Now!
I don't even have my own room anymore.
Lihua Jiang was restless, feeling a chill down below.
I don't know how much time passed.
An exhausted Lihua Jiang finally drifted into a hazy sleep.
The next morning.
Lihua Jiang walked into her room with panda eyes, looking dazed.
Immediately, she noticed Alex using a Skill.
Esdeath and the others were all fast asleep, their sleep quality far better than hers.
Her pretty face flushed red, and she reminded him softly, "M-Master, please don't forget today's morning court session."
"We still need to wait a moment, Anya is about to level up."
Alex responded solemnly.
This kind of thing cannot be abandoned halfway, no matter what.
Anya immediately chimed in, "That's right, Anya feels the power about to gush out."
Among these Dependents.
Her level was the lowest, so the benefits she received were the greatest.
"Um, should I go outside and wait?"
"No... no need, it's almost done."
"O-okay."
Lihua Jiang felt her cheeks burning, but could only nod.
Under her gaze, the aura around Anya gradually grew stronger, and then she broke through in one go.
At this moment, she seemed to lose all her strength, pitifully pulling herself up.
As if disturbed by the noise, the sleeping Esdeath and the others let out soft whimpers and slowly opened their beautiful eyes.
Their gazes immediately turned toward Alex.
"Eh, Anya leveled up again, Master is biased."
"No, Kurome wants to continue leveling up too."
Esdeath and Freya both struggled to get up, wanting Alex to bestow more secret medicine to become stronger.
"That's enough for each of you, have you forgotten that there's important business today?"
Alex didn't hesitate to give each of them a slap, scolding, "Clean this place up first, then get ready to leave."
"Yes, Master."
Kurome and the others obediently nodded and immediately began to open the windows to air out the room.
Then, thanks to their efforts, the whole room became bright and clear.
Feeling refreshed, Alex let out a long breath.
As his strength grew stronger.
His energy became increasingly vigorous.
"Master, there is still some time, I have already had people prepare breakfast."
Seeing that things had finally settled down, Lihua Jiang, who heaved a sigh of relief, walked over.
However.
As Alex's gaze fell on her, her face flushed red again, and she turned her head away unnaturally.
This little girl.
Alex shook his head, but didn't take it to heart.
Anyway, they were already his Dependents, so there was no rush.
The group went to the dining room, finished breakfast, and then left the sleeping quarters.
Immediately, they attracted the attention of the guards.
"What's going on? Why have we never seen these people in the imperial palace before?"
"Not good, the Emperor has been abducted."
Watching this scene, a large number of guards quickly surrounded them.
"Master, do you need them all killed?"
Kurome stepped forward and said indifferently.
Alex didn't speak, just looked at Lihua Jiang.
"No, there's no need to kill anyone."
Lihua Jiang waved her hands repeatedly, then scolded with great majesty, "All of you, withdraw!"
Hearing this, all the guards looked at each other, their gazes hesitant.
"What, do my words no longer work on you?"
Lihua Jiang's gaze became sharp.
"We dare not."
All the guards honestly cleared the way.
Even if the Emperor is just a puppet.
But she is not someone that small guards like them can defy.
"Looks like you still have some majesty."
Alex gave Lihua Jiang a head pat.
"Hehe."
Feeling the warmth on top of her head, Lihua Jiang laughed unconsciously.
For some reason.
Every time Master does this, it makes her very happy.
Watching this scene, all the guards were a bit confused.
What's the situation?
Where did this man come from?
How dare he treat the Emperor like this?
