The Demon King Always Think I'm Secretly In Love With Him | 魔君总以为我暗恋他 [BL]

Chapter 56

When Zhao Qinger appeared, Bai Yang knew that the situation was resolved. He smiled. "Miss Zhao, here I was thinking you weren't coming."

Zhao Qinger was willing to even steal the Jade Cloud Pearl for the Male Lead. Her infatuation and love were obvious to all in the heavens and earth.

Bai Yang thought the male and female leads were a match made in heaven.

Zhao Qinger bit her lip. "I brought the Jade Cloud Pearl. Where's the antidote?"

"Don't worry. Once you give me the pearl, I will let Zhou Ying leave in one piece," Zhou Ying said, smiling. He held out his hand for the pearl.

Zhao Qinger hesitated, determining if his words could be trusted or not. "What if I give you the Jade Cloud Pearl and you don't let Zhou Ying go?"

Bai Yang chuckled. Hearing it, Zhao Qinger nearly trembled, and her face turned red.

"Miss Zhao, my words hold weight. Anyway, you have no choice but to trust me. If you dare trick me, I'll kill you both," Bai Yang warned. Then, he sharply said, "Hand it over!"

Zhao Qinger was struck dumb with fear. She knew she couldn't stand a chance against Bai Yang. If Bai Yang were to take the pearl by force, there would be nothing she could do.

She ground her teeth before taking out a small box and handing it over to Bai Yang.

Bai Yang opened the box and found a small, glossy pearl laying inside. Within the pearl was a tiny green plant that was completely translucent, as if it were alive.

Bai Yang used his cultivation to investigate. He found that the spiritual power of the pearl was extremely rich. It was the real thing. He closed the box and, turning to Zhao Qinger, said, "Alright. Since you've brought me the Jade Cloud Pearl, I'll return my hostage to you."

He gestured to the house. "Zhou Ying is inside. You can take him with you."

Zhao Qinger frowned. "Where's the antidote?"

Bai Yang smiled. "Miss Qinger, the pill gave Zhou Ying was not actually poison. In fact, its properties are beneficial to its user. He won't need any kind of antidote to recover."

He paused, then added, "Actually, that's not right. He won't only recover, but his cultivation will actually advance a level."

Zhao Qinger was unable to trust his words. "You're lying! You want to cheat me and keep the antidote!"

She was so furious she began to tremble. "Give me back the Jade Cloud Pearl!"

She pulled out her sword, moving to snatch the box out of Bai Yang's hands.

Bai Yang dodged the attack easily. If he were to compare his cultivation to someone like Zhao Qinger, it would be like the difference between an elephant and an ant. He didn't need to exert any energy at all.

"I cannot return your gift, Miss Qinger. I said that Zhou Ying wasn't poisoned, and now you won't believe me. Go on inside and take a look for yourself."

Zhao Qinger chased after him for a long time without touching a thread on Bai Yang's clothes. As she panted for breath, she continued to point her sword at Bai Yang with an expression of ultimate hatred.

"You lied to me! You lied to me!" She screamed in rage.

Bai Yang felt some helplessness. Knowing that she didn't trust him, he waved his hand and removed the formation in the room. He raised his voice. "Zhou Ying, come out quickly! Zhao. Qinger doesn't believe that you aren't poisoned."

Zhou Ying had awoken on the second day. Bai Yang told him his plan, so Zhou Ying knew long ago that what Bai Yang had given him was not poison, but a pill that would advance his cultivation.
