After the succession ceremony, everything in the demon world began to move in an orderly manner. Ouyang Hongye obtained the consent of Ouyang Yong and Lion King Cheng, and sent Wang Yue and Feng Huo to lead an elite force to eliminate all the mourning ghosts in Nanzhe City, and The gold stored in the palace was also moved back to the royal city. Of course, Wangyue also got his wish and brought back all the fine wine collected by the Lord of Nanzhe City.
Ouyang Xiaoleng and Ouyang Hongye discussed with the two elders to distribute part of the gold received to several relatively declining cities, and assigned these cities to several princes for management, who would be responsible for reconstruction. Ouyang Hongye was fully responsible for the reorganization of the royal city and the recruitment of the army. Under the suggestions of Ouyang Yong and Shi Wangcheng, the princes and nobles from top to bottom in the demon world were re-entered into the roster and ranked. The ranking was not only based on the rank of the ancestors. , and based on their respective achievements in past battles and the development of the demon world, and through elections and other methods, in order to make everyone surrender happily. In a short period of time, the chaotic situation in the demon world has been greatly improved, and Ouyang Xiaoleng has also established a certain prestige, but most people are still unwilling to talk about Qingyun, let alone accept that they will fight Qingyun again. Reality.
Being the master of a realm is doomed to loneliness. Before meeting Xia Qiu, loneliness was a very common feeling for Ouyang Xiaoleng, but now he has changed. Her absence made him feel uncomfortable, and this discomfort even had a chain reaction. Now that Qianqi was noisy and bickering with him now, he felt a little lost.
He spends most of his time alone in Yuheng Hall, where his parents used to live, and his memories of them have become hazy, leaving only fragments. Since their death, this place has been completely sealed off and has become a lifeless and forbidden place.
But now, due to the arrival of the new king, life has returned here. The scenery in the yard is like an enlarged courtyard of Ouyang's ancient house. The buildings, pavilions, flowers and trees are all somewhat similar. Ouyang Xiaoleng also asked Ouyang Xiaoleng to keep the room where his parents had lived. The books he had read, the pens, inks, paper and inkstones he had used on the table, and the jewelry and makeup boxes that his mother had used on the dressing table were still there. When he got closer, they seemed to still have a faint familiarity in his memory. of fragrance. During the few days when Xia Qiu left, he always liked to sit in his room or courtyard for most of the day. Sometimes he would dream about his childhood, his mother's smile and the melodies his father often played, which often suddenly became clear in his dreams.
After returning to the royal city from Xianhequan Township, Ouyang Xiaoleng never left Chenji Palace. This was decided by Ouyang Yong and Ouyang Hongye after repeated consideration. His ascension to the throne has caused an uproar in the entire demon world. As the youngest generation of demon king foxes in history, he ascended the throne of demon king when the demon world continued to decline. Considering that whether it is Qingyun or other people who desire to gain power, it is possible To assassinate in secret, for the sake of safety, the only choice is to restrict his freedom.
As Ouyang Xiaoleng's residence, Yuheng Palace is also tightly protected. Except for the designated demon servants and guards, it is difficult for even a sparrow to fly in. After all, Ouyang Xiaoleng is still just a teenager. Even though he is lonely by nature, he does not want to be imprisoned here like a bird in a cage. If it were not for the constraints of this cage, he would have already rushed to Xia Qiu's side, and now he can only hope that she can come back as soon as possible. , as long as she is here, his restless soul can be comforted.
As soon as he heard that she was back, he excitedly wanted to rush to the Fuxing Palace to see her, but was stopped by the guards guarding the main entrance of the Yuheng Palace. According to the guards, Ouyang Hongye had ordered him not to go out casually. He felt angry after hearing this. Even though he knew that they were also thinking about his safety, he was still the master of the demon world now, and he had to do everything in Chenji Palace. Being under control was simply unacceptable to him.
Just when he wanted to forcefully break through the guards, Xia Qiu appeared in front of him, and the anger bursting in his chest subsided.
"I'm completely tied up now. I'm starting to wonder if being the Lord of the Demon Realm is a good thing." Ouyang Xiaoleng complained. He could only say this in front of her.
"You have just ascended the throne, and Hongye is also thinking about your safety!" Xia Qiu comforted him.
"Well, I know, it'll be nice if you come back! Is everything going well?"
Ouyang Xiaoleng's indifferent words, "It'll be fine if you come back," caused ripples in Xia Qiu's heart. What could be better than being wanted by the person you like? She told him how Dong Muya obtained the information about the White Crane Spirit Beast and connected it with the Feather Crane Immortal. He nodded from time to time.
After hearing this, he asked: "What about the detoxification method?"
"Dragon blood... This is the agreement between me and Immortal Yuhe. Grandpa Yong told me that dragon blood is extremely precious. A noble dragon will not give his blood to others easily, but this is already the second Qianqi. This is the first time you have used your dragon blood to help me."
Ouyang Xiaoleng heard the guilt in Xia Qiu's tone, and he felt the same way. He should have protected her, and he should have helped her realize her wishes, but he often failed to do so. Qianqi seemed to guard her more carelessly than he did. Just like when Xia Qiu was robbed by the Rakshasa Mother, he tried his best to save her, and when she was taken away by Yu Hexian, he was even more angry than himself. More intense and direct. Compared with Qian Qi, he seemed to be too wealthy, even in his treatment of Xia Qiu, which made him deeply blame himself, and the previous conflict with Qian Qi no longer existed.
"By the way, where is Qian Qi and others? I always feel like something is missing even though he's not around." He suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen that guy for a long time.
"He's resting!"
Xia Qiu still didn't know what happened between Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi after she went to Changsheng Island with Immortal Yuhe. She saw that Qianqi refused to come to Yuheng Palace with her, and she also tested whether they met. What kind of contradiction, now it seems that she is too preoccupied, "Speaking of which, I haven't been to school for a long time. This time when I returned to Yongchuan, I deliberately walked through the road in front of the school. It's been even longer since you haven't been there, and you will do it again in the future. go?"
Xia Qiu suddenly thought that he should go back to school for the time being, so he asked casually, but then he regretted it. Ouyang Xiaoleng had just complained that his freedom was restricted.
"I would like to discuss it with Hongye again. Just come back here after school every day, at least to finish this semester." Ouyang Xiaoleng thought for a while and answered.
In fact, he had already made up his mind, because he knew that if he went to school, he could at least see Xia Qiu every day, before Qingyun made any new moves. In addition, he also knows that the hatred for Qingyun in his heart sometimes makes him make wrong judgments, and having her by his side can calm him down.
"What do you want to discuss with me?" Ouyang Hongye appeared out of nowhere, walked up to him and saluted him and said, "Master Demon King Fox."
"Didn't I tell you many times, don't salute me or anything like that." Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't know how long he had been nearby. In fact, the fox's hearing and smell were extremely sensitive, but he only focused on talking to Xia Qiu. She didn't even notice his arrival at all. Similarly, he didn't know how much he heard the conversation between him and her, and turned his face away in embarrassment.
"I heard that someone actually wanted to find Qianqi?" Ouyang Hongye asked deliberately. In fact, he happened to come to Ouyang Xiaoleng for something. He saw Xia Qiu and him from a distance, so he stayed a little further away to let them be alone. Talk conversation.
"You..." Ouyang Xiaoleng rarely blushed.
"Haha, I'm here to talk about the New Year's celebration in more than two months. Master Yong said that it must be held this year no matter what." Ouyang Hongye narrowed his eyes and smiled, cleverly avoiding the topic.
"It will be done as you wish. Since you have heard it, I want to go back to school during the day as before." Ouyang Xiaoleng deliberately did not use a questioning tone, but expressed his affirmation idea.
"Now that you've decided, okay. But you have to be prepared. Someone will pick you up and drop you off every day, and I will arrange for my men to stay near the school."
Ouyang Hongye has satisfied Ouyang Xiaoleng's wish to the greatest extent. He also understands that he mainly wants to see Xia Qiu every day. During this period, he has just ascended the throne, and his mood will be somewhat ups and downs. The school is undoubtedly a place that can relieve him. These are areas of stress.
"Okay!" Ouyang Xiaoleng nodded in response.
"Xia Qiu, the New Year's celebration in the demon world is very interesting. It's a bit like your temple fair. On that day demons from all over the world will gather in the royal city. It's been a long time since the demon world has had such a lively and festive moment." Ouyang Hongye said to Xia Qiu.
"Can I come and take a look then?" Xia Qiu asked.
"Of course, I am just inviting you." Ouyang Hongye replied, getting closer and said to Ouyang Xiaoleng, "The most important thing before the celebration is the recruitment and training of the army, and for the sake of the safety of the entire royal city during the celebration, we We have to be on guard against Qingyun’s people sneaking into the royal city during the New Year.”
"Well, the current recruitment situation is better than I expected." Ouyang Xiaoleng responded.
"Yes. So far, about 500 people have been recruited who meet the criteria. At this rate, we should be able to recruit 1,000 people by the New Year. Among these 1,000 people, I plan to select 100 people to join the palace. guard."
When Xia Qiu heard the word "army", he thought of a scene of thousands of troops, but from what Ouyang Hongye said, it sounded like the demon world's army was not like that.
Ouyang Hongye saw her doubts and explained to her, "For monsters, the human sea tactic has no advantage, because the level and difference of monster methods can easily lead to chaotic situations. Therefore, the war in the monster world pays more attention to each person's tactics." The ability to arrange troops and formations."
"So that's it."
Xia Qiu seemed to understand what he meant, because she had seen the fighting methods of Ouyang Hongye, Ouyang Xiaoleng and others when she participated in the battle before. At this time, she thought of how she had only been concentrating on the practice of Hunli these days. He neglected the practice of knife skills, and at this time, Ouyang Yong's physical condition could no longer teach him.
"By the way, I found a substitute teacher for you. He will teach you the magic and sword skills during Master Yong's training." Ouyang Hongye was always so considerate.
"Who is it?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked Xia Qiu first. He had never heard anyone mention this matter before.
"When it comes to using swords, he should be above me." Ouyang Hongye said with a smile.
"It must be Wangyue." Xia Qiu probably guessed who he was referring to.
"Exactly, I have made an agreement with him to train you at Ouyang Ancient Mansion twice a week!"
"Great, I'm worrying about this!" Xia Qiu was once again grateful to Ouyang Hongye.
"It's just that Wang Yue will be shy when meeting unfamiliar women, and when she gets acquainted, she won't speak properly. Don't take it to heart. Okay, that's all I have to say. I'll leave the rest of the time to you!" Ouyang After Hongye finished speaking, he left with a smile.
