Chapter 104 - She's One of Us

Click.

The door opened, and Lin Fan pushed it to enter.

Meizhi followed close behind. The moment he entered the room, he was instantly and deeply shocked by the sight before him.

In the living room, besides a sofa, a coffee table, a dining table, and some simple furniture, there were only a few strange and bizarre things that he had never seen before.

And these things took up most of the already limited space in the living room, making the not-so-large room seem even more cramped.

Small! It's simply too small!

This simple and cramped little house wasn't even as good as Lord Demon Sovereign's bathroom in the Demon Palace!

“Lord Demon Sovereign, you… live here?”

Meizhi looked around and asked in disbelief, his lips trembling as he spoke.

“Yes, this is This One's home in this world.”

Lin Fan said unconcernedly.

To be honest, he himself was quite satisfied with this small home of one bedroom and one living room. After all, this was a house he had worked day and night to buy after graduation.

During the time I was not by his side, Lord Demon Sovereign was actually reduced to living in such a cramped and simple room…

“Lord Demon Sovereign! It is this subordinate's dereliction of duty that has caused Your Noble Self to be forced to stay in such a squalid place! This subordinate's crime truly deserves ten thousand deaths!”

Meizhi covered his face and sobbed, tears streaming from his eyes like a flood, his expression one of extreme grief.

“…This place isn't really that bad, you know.”

Lin Fan also looked around his own small apartment to himself.

Although it's a little simple and a little small, it has all the necessities and can be considered well-decorated. It's not so bad as to be called 'squalid,' right…?

For Meizhi to say that... it actually hurt his feelings a little...

Right after graduation, in order to save money, he had even lived in a ten-square-meter rented room.

If this is considered 'squalid,' then what was that ten-square-meter rented room…

“Lord Demon Sovereign, this subordinate will go right now to find the best house in this world and 'clear it out' for you!”

Meizhi's expression firmed, having made some kind of decision in his heart, and he turned to leave.

Seeing this, Lin Fan grabbed his shoulder and said irritably:

“You will stay put for This One! You are not to go anywhere!”

Based on his understanding of his subordinate, he could roughly guess what the so-called 'clearing out' method would be…

“But…”

Meizhi still wanted to speak, but was directly cut off by Lin Fan:

“No 'buts.' Have you forgotten what This One said? You are not to carelessly expose your identity here.”

“This house is sufficient as a base of operations. There's no need to go looking for another place.”

“Very well… this subordinate understands.”

Seeing Lin Fan put it that way, Meizhi had no choice but to give up.

As he was passing by the refrigerator, he suddenly sensed something with keen perception. His eyes hardened, and he reached out a hand to feel the top of the fridge.

Sure enough, his fingertips came away with a layer of gray dust!

He could reluctantly accept that Lord Demon Sovereign's residence was a bit cramped, but he absolutely would not permit the place where his Lord lived to have the slightest trace of filth!

How could Lord Demon Sovereign's noble body be tainted by such filthy things!

“Lord Demon Sovereign, please at least allow this subordinate to clean this place for you!”

The moment he spoke, without waiting for Lin Fan's reply, Meizhi took water and a cloth from his storage ring and skillfully began to clean the room.

Originally, he had wanted to use a purification spell to instantly clear all the dust from the room, but recalling Lord Demon Sovereign's earlier instruction that his remaining spiritual energy was not to be wasted, he chose to do it by hand instead.

After all, to be able to personally clean Lord Demon Sovereign's room was also a supreme honor!

Watching Meizhi bustle back and forth, cleaning every corner with extreme care and seriousness, Lin Fan felt a little helpless.

The apartment was already plenty clean under Long Yue's care. This guy was even more of a neat freak than she was…

Speaking of which, where was Yue'er? Where had she run off to?

Lin Fan looked around the room, but he didn't see Long Yue's figure.

After finding Meizhi, he had first taken him to get an ID card, then to the mall to buy clothes, which took some time. It seemed Zhou Yan and Lu Zhai had already gone home. So where had Long Yue gone?

Meizhi's movements were quick and efficient. Soon, he had cleaned every corner of the living room and bedroom until they were spotless.

After a satisfied inspection, he picked up a bucket and walked toward the balcony, preparing to clean it as well.

When he opened the balcony door, he froze.

He saw a person standing by the birdcage on the balcony!

Seeing that she had been exposed, Long Yue gave an awkward smile and raised a hand in greeting to Meizhi:

“Hi, long time no see…”

Meizhi: “…”

“E-Empress?!!!”

Meizhi had to look for a good while before he recognized Long Yue's identity, his eyes instantly widening in astonishment.

“Lord Demon Sovereign! The Empress has infiltrated the premises!”

“You must leave quickly! This subordinate will hold her off!”

With that, Meizhi dropped the bucket in his hand and assumed a battle stance.

The next second, Lin Fan appeared in a flash, interrupting him by slamming a hand against him and pinning him to the wall.

“L-Lord Demon Sovereign…?”

Meizhi was pressed against the wall, pouting, a look of confusion on his face.

“Don't make a move. She's one of us.”

Lin Fan released Meizhi and said indifferently.

“O-One of us…?”

Meizhi was full of confusion. He first looked at Lin Fan, then turned his head to look at Long Yue.

The Empress of the Immortal Realm, the mortal enemy of his Demon Race... how did she suddenly become 'one of us'...?

He didn't understand...

Could someone please tell him what on earth had happened during the time he wasn't by Lord Demon Sovereign's side…

Long Yue's pretty face flushed red, and she looked away shyly, which was a tacit admission.

Of all the times for this to happen, just after the Demon Sovereign had confessed to her, just after she had accepted him, and just after the two had officially confirmed their relationship, his subordinate had to show up…

For her, as the Empress, to meet the Demon Sovereign's subordinate again under these circumstances was indeed quite awkward.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have deliberately hidden on the balcony ahead of time.

Gazing at the shy Long Yue, Meizhi grew even more confused.

The Empress of the Immortal Realm he was familiar with was a cold and arrogant, peerless expert whose strength was enough to look down upon the world. But the person before him now was like a shy, young maiden…

Could it be...

Recalling the two pillows he had seen in the bedroom while cleaning just now, Meizhi suddenly understood something, and a look of enlightenment dawned on his face.

“So that's how it is! As expected of Lord Demon Sovereign!”

“The Empress must have been 'disciplined' by you, Lord Demon Sovereign, and has now submitted, correct?!”

As he spoke, Meizhi slowly stood up, placed a hand on his chest, and bowed slightly to Lin Fan to show his admiration.

Long Yue was the Empress of the Supreme Sacred Heavenly Palace, hailed as the strongest Empress in the history of the Immortal Realm, unrivaled in the current age.

And their great Demon Sovereign! Had successfully conquered her! And had 'disciplined' her into the likeness of a young maiden!

In all the world, only Lord Demon Sovereign could achieve this!

Truly, as expected of our great and supreme lord!

“Hey! This Empress has not been 'disciplined'…!”

“And also, don't just speculate wildly without any basis!”

Long Yue clenched her delicate fists and, with blushing cheeks, retorted angrily.

She and the Demon Sovereign had only become a couple. How did it become 'she was disciplined by the Demon Sovereign' when it came out of Meizhi's mouth…

Besides, the Demon Sovereign was the one who confessed to her first. By any logic, it should be considered that she conquered him...
