The Corpse Ruler Confuses the World, All Seven Husbands Are Devils Volume 1 Chapter 31

Mo Qingyu immediately took the initiative, standing up as soon as the Empress had finished speaking. Confidently, she approached Xiaoyao Yunshang, presenting the gift she had brought for the occasion. “Prince, this Princess has prepared for you water from the Immortal Spring in the heart of the Dark Forest!”

After announcing her gift, Mo Qingyu's face was filled with arrogant self-a.s.surance.

At the mention of “water gathered from the Immortal Spring in the heart of the Dark Forest”, the crowd was shocked into standing. Even the muddled and intoxicated Empress opened her eyes, temporarily regaining sobriety. Unexpectedly, Mo Qingyu somehow got her hands on water from the Immortal Spring?

Even Xiaoyao Yunshang couldn't prevent himself from being astonished at this present. From what the legends said, the Dark Forest was the realm of demons, and populated with countless beasts. Never had any humans gone in before and returned. Furthermore, the Immortal Spring that flowed in the heart of the forest had long been a mysterious existence. According to the legends, just one sip of water from the spring gave the drinker eternal life.

At hearing of the present, Leng Hanling and Mu Tianlang could also not help but glance over. However, after a quick glance, they both sneered in ridicule, turning their gazes away and returning to their wine.

“Daughter, this, is this really water from the Immortal Spring?” With the a.s.sistance of Ouyang Haoxuan, the Empress hobbled over to Mo Qingyu, her voice trembling.

“In reply to Mother's question, it is! However, Mother, you can relax, this daughter has already prepared some for you as well.” Mo Qingyu quirked up her lips, whispering into the Empress's ear.

“Good, good, good!” The Empress couldn't help but praise her daughter three times before she returned to her seat, settling in the chair.

Mo Qingyu turned around, her gaze falling onto Xiaoyao Yunshang's beautiful face. Arrogantly, she asked, “Prince, what do you think?”

Before Xiaoyao Yunshang could return, Mo Qinghan interrupted her. “Wait a minute, the other siblings haven't presented their gifts either. Elder Sister, are you absolutely sure that the Xiaoyao prince will select you?”

After she finished speaking, she summoned her entourage to follow her as she approached Mo Qingyu's side. Reaching out her hand, she removed the cloth from the platter that the chamberlain beside her was carrying, revealing a radiant, multi-coloured fruit.

“This is the Enchanted Purifying Fruit.”

The crowd released another cry of surprise. Was this really the legendary Spirit Fruit, the Enchanted Purifying Fruit?

“That's right,” Mo Qinghan said, raising her eyebrows as she stared at Mo Qingyu. In a mocking tone, she slowly said, “This is really the legendary Spirit Fruit, the Enchanted Purifying Fruit.”

Although Mo Qingyu's gift of water from the Immortal Spring had not interested Mo Qingli, this Enchanted Purifying Fruit had attracted her interest. Her pitch-black pupils eyed the multi-coloured fruit on the platter, confirming that this was indeed what Mo Qinghan claimed. If it could be said that this fruit gave human a great deal of benefits, then it was even more useful towards demons like herself. The effect it had on cultivation and breaking bottlenecks was immense, so much that it could advance even the most powerful demons' cultivations.

Still, this legendary-cla.s.s fruit was really too famous. Everyone in the room couldn't help but eye it greedily, wis.h.i.+ng to bite into the multi-colored flesh.

Mo Qingli raised her eyebrows as she caught sight of Leng Hanling and Mu Tianlang. She had been trying to find those two demons ever since that day, but who would have thought that they had turned to the Fourth Princess's side!

Len Hanling turned away from the Enchanted Purifying Fruit, staring straight into Mo Qingli's dark pupils. Immediately, his gaze became extremely excited. Although he wished to open his mouth and explain everything, his magic power had been sealed by that Mu Tianlang, leaving him unable to even speak. Seeing Mo Qingli looking at him, he couldn't help but feel waves of emotion was.h.i.+ng over him, and he became anxious to explain to her that everything was merely a misunderstanding.

However, Mo Qingli turned away her gaze, refusing to look at them. In her mind, it was their fault for having no conscience and betraying her. Instead, she glanced at the current conflict between the two princesses standing on the platform.
