Chapter 250 Ten Years of Perseverance
"Did you all hear that? The Second Prince is actually like this in private! Not only does he like to cheat on himself, but he also likes to drag his father into it!"
"Of course I heard it! The voice rang directly in my mind; it's hard to ignore even if I wanted to!"
"I had only heard that the Second Prince was a womanizer in private, and that he liked to steal other people's Demon Generals' lovers, ruining many marriages. Now it seems that the Second Prince is not just a straightforward person, but this cuckold fetishist is doing it on purpose!"
"Stop talking, stop talking. If the Second Prince could hear you, you'd be in for a world of hurt. He can't stand people talking about him like that."
"He controls everything, but can he control our private conversations? I bet the old demon king will find out about this soon, and he'll be in for it."
In a corner of the Demon King's Palace, a group of high-ranking demons were secretly exchanging messages.
As high-ranking demons, their strength is comparable to that of the demon generals outside, yet they hold the lowest status in the Demon King's Palace, even lower than the demon chefs.
Fearing that their secret discussions might cause trouble, they dared not leak even a trace of magic power when communicating telepathically.
Actually, even if they hadn't used telepathy, let alone been so careful, the Second Prince might not have been able to take care of them at this point, because he was already on the verge of going crazy.
Although this place is the kitchen, it is very close to the main hall of the Demon King's Palace. What if the old Demon King father suddenly decides to come here for a stroll and hears this half-demon's discussion? Wouldn't he be doomed?
There's a difference between normal fun and getting into trouble with the old devil.
The old demon king disliked him for being idle all day, not going to the cultivation world to do missions, and bringing shame to the demon king's palace.
Now his little scheme has reached the old devil king's ears. Do you think that old guy will let him off the hook?
An unprecedented sense of crisis rose in the Second Prince's mind. He knew that he had to stop this half-demon now, or everything would be over.
However, he dared not make any rash moves, fearing the terrifying aura that suddenly appeared. What if this half-demon had a new backer and received help from other demon kings? Even his old father would be helpless, let alone himself.
The Demon King's Palace has a total of ten Demon Kings. Who is the Demon King who just made his move?
The Second Prince's head was buzzing; he felt as if some demon was trying to frame him.
At this moment, the Sixth Prince, who was openly plotting to frame the Second Prince, gave him a smile.
His Royal Highness: "!!!"
[System: Actually, the Second Prince didn't steal the person back this time. After all, the person had already been given to his old demon king father, and he's quite timid; he didn't dare to snatch them back directly.]
Lan Yue nodded. She had thought that the Second Prince would not openly compete with his father for someone's position. After all, without his father, the Second Prince would not have been able to sit in this position!
However, the system hesitated for a moment, then continued.
[System: But in a way, the Second Prince is incredibly audacious. Although he doesn't dare to openly rob, he dares to secretly have an affair with that beauty in his father's bed...]
"Cough cough cough!" The Sixth Prince suddenly let out a violent cough, one cough after another, which startled the demons who were also watching the melon in the corner.
Lan Yue, who was eating melon seeds, suddenly stopped and looked up at the other person in surprise.
What's wrong with this Sixth Prince? He can even choke on water?
After a moment of curiosity, Lan Yue pulled herself back to her own thoughts and became engrossed in watching the drama unfold.
There was no other way; for Lan Yue at this moment, watching the drama unfold was the most important thing, and the Sixth Prince no longer held any appeal for her.
[Lan Yue: Good heavens, he was just saying he was a coward, but now it seems he's incredibly brave! How did he have the nerve to fool around in his dad's bed?]
[System: Perhaps the Second Prince wants to emulate his father and display his prowess?]
Lan Yue was incredulous, and the other demons were stunned.
For a moment, the entire Demon King's Palace was completely silent, and the sound of a fire burning could be clearly heard not far away.
However, at this moment, a deafening roar rang out. The sound came from outside the door and exploded in the ears of all the demons.
Even the high-ranking demons who were secretly discussing in the corner had a trickle of dark red blood spilling from the corner of their mouths.
These demons were alright, since the old demon king had deliberately restrained himself and hadn't directed that power at them.
But the surrounding food was doomed. All the food exploded, and blood and bits of internal organs flew into the air, filling the entire space with a pale red mist.
"Luan Feng, is this how you ruin my and my son's reputation and stir up trouble here? I even spoke up for you when you were found!"
The old demon king, draped in a black and red cloak, flew in from outside the door. His entire body floated in mid-air, his long red hair stood up high, and red mist swirled around him.
The old demon king's furious face glared at them, and all the demons around felt suffocated.
"Don't think that just because you're my brother's son I can't do anything to you!"
The old demon king, with a gloomy face, uttered harsh words.
The high-ranking demons around him trembled in fear, while the Second Prince, who was still angry, breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the image he had cultivated with his father over the years had been quite successful.
As long as the old man doesn't believe what the half-demon said, he has a chance to salvage the situation.
Thinking of this, the Second Prince's face also turned very gloomy. This half-demon actually dared to set a trap for him to his face. He would definitely retaliate fiercely!
At this moment, the Sixth Prince was also somewhat uneasy, because the power emanating from the old demon king opposite him had locked him in place, and he felt unprecedented pressure.
The Sixth Prince mobilized all his power to erect a protective barrier around himself, and of course, he also covered the small black ball in his hand with a layer of protective material.
"What a joke! Do I need to stir up trouble here? I don't believe you haven't noticed anything about what your son has done!" The Sixth Prince held his head high with pride.
The old demon king on the other side frowned deeply, still unable to believe that his son could do such a thing.
So it must be this guy's conspiracy!
At this moment, a familiar voice echoed in the minds of all the demons.
[Lan Yue: Strange, this old demon king seems to trust his son completely. Doesn't he know what kind of person his son is?]
[System: You wouldn't know this, host. The Second Prince puts on a good show in front of his father. Even though he often forcibly takes the lovers of those demon generals, he always finds a good excuse, saying that those demon generals betrayed the demon realm and sided with the cultivation world, which is why they secretly keep human lovers.]
[This second prince pretends to be very frugal in front of his father, always dressing very simply when they meet. In reality, his treasury is filled with mountains of magical artifacts and even magic crystals!]
Hearing the system's explanation, Lan Yue was greatly shocked. She had no idea that it could be done this way.
[System: Besides pretending to be extremely frugal, this Second Prince also maintains a persona of deep affection for his father. To this day, his palace openly only has one demon wife.]
[So it turns out that this was all just a facade. In reality, you know very well how much of a playboy the Second Prince is in private.]
All that could be left in Lan Yue's mind was "Holy crap".
However, the system's introductory voice continued.
[It's understandable that the old demon king doesn't believe his son could do such a thing, after all, his son always tries to create a persona for himself, and it's all an act.]
[If you want this old devil to believe you, just make him look at the bed he usually sleeps in and see if there's a tunnel underneath it.]
[He had been preparing for this for decades, digging a tunnel under his bed in his palace day after day, for a very long time before he finally reached his father's bed!]
Lan Yue was at a loss for words, and after a long pause, she managed to stammer out a few sentences.
[The Second Prince is truly a genius! He's persisted for so long just to dig a tunnel that would allow him to seduce others; it must have been quite a ordeal for him.]
As soon as these voices fell, all the demons involuntarily looked in the direction of the Second Prince, who was completely dumbfounded.
No, why would this half-demon know such a secret? He did dig this tunnel, and he started digging it more than ten years ago.
When he was digging, he was worried that other demons would discover it and that if he handed it over to his subordinates, some of them would betray him.
He didn't tell anyone about all the preparations from beginning to end. He dug every corner of the tunnel himself!
So, how did this half-demon know all this?!
The Second Prince, seeing the increasingly hostile look in his father's eyes, was on the verge of madness.
"Son, I still believe in you. I'll have the other demons verify this, and then I'll personally shut this half-demon up!"
The old demon king swept his cold eyes around and let out a cold snort.
His Royal Highness: "..."
Why don't you just bury me, Dad?
