Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Yang Yu’s outstretched hand was extremely tempting; Tian Hanxue now wanted to grasp Yang Yu’s hand and throw herself into his arms.

But the cost of throwing oneself into Yang Yu’s embrace is to abandon everything.

Would doing that really bring her happiness? Is there not a way to have both?

Tian Hanxue questioned herself inwardly.

The snowy sky was silent, Yang Yu didn’t say a word, silently waiting for Tian Hanxue to make a choice.

After pondering for a while, Tian Hanxue gave her answer:

”After all...

I can’t do it.”

Yang Yu’s outstretched hand slowly lowered,

”No surprises there.

Between getting my love and conquering the world, you still chose the latter, wanting to serve the Demon Clan.

Between us, there’s no way to build a bridge.”

”...Perhaps you misunderstood one thing.”

”Wooosh——”, the folded fan in Tian Hanxue’s hand unfurled, and the once-stopped blizzard wantonly swept back again.

The surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and the cold wind was bone-chilling.

Standing on the Ice Cone, Tian Hanxue continued:

”I just think that rebelling against the Demon King, rebelling against the Demon King Army, rebelling against the march of history...

is incredibly foolish!

You can’t defeat the Demon King, eventually, you’ll only meet your own demise!

I don’t want to see you self-destruct.

I want to stop you and make you understand that joining us is the only right choice.

The struggles you make are futile!”

Yang Yu laughed upon hearing this, ”In your view, is the strength we possess still insufficient to overthrow the Demon King and stop the deeds of the Demon King Army? What kind of unimaginable power does the Demon King possess?”

”The inherited knowledge and memories accumulated from ancient times are the best weapon.

If you ultimately choose to fight us to the end, then there’s no way...

The way to stay with you isn’t just inviting you to our side.

Erase all your companions, then shatter your limbs to ice, making you lose all ability to act...

You will only be able to rely on me to live, you will never be able to leave me, and at that time...

Stop stop stop——”

Tian Hanxue’s eyes narrowed into slits, seemingly aware of something, and her smile gradually turned strange and enchanting,

”That’s right! From the start, I should have done this!

Why have I been painstakingly persuading you?

As long as I make you unable to leave me, you won’t resist either the Demon King or me.

When Lord Demon King conquers this world, when you understand how great what we’re doing is, we can be together forever.

Always, forever, together!”

Tian Hanxue didn’t directly answer Yang Yu’s question, but her words and expressions just now showed she doesn’t believe Yang Yu and others possess the strength to overthrow the Demon King.

Even caught in a whirlpool of love, Tian Hanxue hasn’t lost her judgment.

Frankly speaking... Yang Yu wasn’t prepared for Tian Hanxue’s lap snuggling strategy.

If Tian Hanxue really throws herself into his arms, then it would be truly troublesome.

But now...this has become even more troublesome.

How is it that on just their second meeting, this dignified Heavenly King has turned yandere?

You should know, the yandere has always been the toughest attribute to deal with.

The best way to face yandere is to embrace it, submit entirely to everything about your counterpart.

In that case, the yandere attribute is no longer a yandere attribute, at most it looks like a bit of a strong control desire of a married attribute.

...Hmm.

...No problem.

And, as long as you cater to the yandere one hundred percent, enjoying it, in the eyes of outsiders, you would be a very loving couple.

If anyone says you are henpecked, you should rush to give him a firm punch and then publicly proclaim, ”What’s wrong with listening to your wife!”

Don’t worry about making the relationship tense, as it’s better than you or him losing your life.

...I wonder if this counts as a hellish joke.

Yang Yu already has Bai Jin, positions with Tian Hanxue are different; he can’t submit to Tian Hanxue and become a Demon King’s son-in-law.

The best way to deal with yandere was dismissed by Yang Yu; the options left are all thorny paths.

Tian Hanxue spun the folded fan, dancing on the Ice Cone.

Numerous magic powers surged toward Tian Hanxue, gathering around her with her dance.

Bai Jin raised her magic wand and chanted spells, unable to stop Tian Hanxue last time with the Krengris family, this time, they must stop her before completing the magic!

Bai Jin’s spell wasn’t finished when Yang Yu stood up from in front of Bai Jin, stepping on Lotcar’s broad arm, using Lotcar’s forehead as a jumping board, and leapt upward.

The instant his toes touched the ice column, he activated [Climbing], using [Incredible Braking Boots] for buffering, Yang Yu rapidly escalated along the sloped ice surface.

The folded fan used by Tian Hanxue is named [Demon Summoning Prayer].

As the name implies, the effect of this legendary folded fan is to gather surrounding magic power.

Typically, magic needs to construct specific magic formations before starting to gather surrounding magic power to complete the magic.

But with this fan, it’s possible to skip the construction work specific to magic formations.

Just injecting the magic power into the constructed running formation allows direct magic casting.

Bai Jin can comprehend pausing the formation midway, chanting another magic, how could Tian Hanxue, a Heavenly King, not?

The magic Tian Hanxue is using now still needed a bit of time to complete; Yang Yu came too quickly, forcing her to pause the ongoing magic and first suppress Yang Yu.

”[Hundred Forests]!”

Manipulating [Demon Summoning Prayer], Tian Hanxue pressed the weapon downward.

The ice column Yang Yu stepped onto instantly sprouted thousands of Ice Cones, like countless Sharp Spears piercing out, crisscrossed, forming a dense ”forest.”

Activating [Steel Spur Shield], rows of black spurs appeared in front of Yang Yu’s shield.

[Steel Spur Shield] damage reduction correlates with the user’s Max HP, Yang Yu, who mainly focused on Endurance, passed through the Frost Ice Forest, merely like passing through a fierce Hurricane.

But the shattered Ice Cones still brought Yang Yu much resistance, even with Yang Yu activating [Red Blood Path] for upward rushing, only slightly alleviating the resistance.

When Yang Yu broke through layer upon layer of Ice Cones and faced Tian Hanxue, Tian Hanxue had already prepared the next magic:

”[Ice Sealed World]”

The originally slowly falling snowflakes seemed as if time had slowed down hundreds of times, almost suspended in mid-air.

The surrounding temperature dropped sharply, a unique barrier rapidly spread from Tian Hanxue, affecting all creatures’ speed within one kilometer centered on her.

The closer to Tian Hanxue, the more severe the temperature drop, the more speed diminishes.

Most near Tian Hanxue, Yang Yu’s speed dropped by nearly 40% in one go, the bone-chilling cold slapped against his cheeks and body.

Tian Hanxue used this skill last time too, it’s also the skill most worth noticing.

Yang Yu knows after Tian Hanxue uses this skill, she has quite a bit of stiffness.

And this, is the best opportunity for attack!
