Devil's Son-in-Law Chapter 474 - Ball

Chapter 474: Ball

These words made Sicali’s expression freeze. He looked at Alice and Chen Rui again, “Sir Chen Rui, is that true?”

“Little Princess Royal Highness is just joking.” Chen Rui secretly gave Alice a thumbs up, and he shrugged, “The original saying is, I would rather break my hands and feet than to run naked.”

Sicali’s eyes narrowed slightly, “So... Sir Chen Rui is refusing?”

Chen Rui ignored the chill in Sicali’s eyes, and he smiled slightly, “I’m just a financial officer of the Dark Moon. Sir lord is of noble status and a royal family mber, so why would you haggle with .”

Although his tone was quite euphemistic, he was obviously rejecting Sicali.

Even if Chen Rui’s enemy was the peak of the Demon Emperor, he wouldn’t be afraid. He had already killed 2 peak stages of the Demon Emperors, and they were all actual combat types. None of them was worse than Sicali.

Anyone who dared to have a thought to touch his woman would only have one ending: Kill!

Chen Rui’s obvious disregard made Sicali’s eyes twitch. He was about to speak when a nonchalant voice sounded, “Stop talking nonsense. Kia is my good sister. If anyone dares to have ill intentions, I, the old mother will directly wipe out his whole family!”

On this occasion, the one who claid to be an old mother was none other than Ms. Erald Dragon. Today, Ms. Betty was pulled over by Chen Rui to “welco the guests”. His original intention was to act as a deterrent at so point. When she heard Sicali was interested in Kia, her “Governance Association” good sister and chief costu designer, she imdiately yelled at him unceremoniously.

Palando exclaid, “How daring! Who are you? How dare you...”

Before she finished speaking, a terrifying pressure ca over. Palando felt that she was falling into the ice cellar, and she couldn’t say anything. The initially threatening mutated hellhound that she was holding lied on the ground while trembling as if it saw sothing terrifying.

A Demon Overlord-level power breath! Sicali’s face changed suddenly. He hurriedly said, “Princess Shea, Palando has always been immature. You know it. It was just a misunderstanding just now. Please be rciful, madam.”

Krobelus withdrew her breath upon Chen Rui’s hint. She sneered at Palando with disdain, then she talked and laughed with Alice as though no one else was around.

Palando was drenched in cold sweat. She didn’t dare to say a word. That hellhound had long lost its prestige. It was hiding behind her with its tail tucked between its legs. Krobelus’ breath carried a terrifying dragon deanor. If she did not hold back, this dog already had loose stools.

“This is our Dark Moon’s guest, Madam Krobelus.” Shea said calmly, “It was just a misunderstanding just now. Sir Sicali doesn’t need to worry about it.”

Sicali nodded, and he never ntioned about Kia anymore. Countless thoughts ran through his mind: It turns out that this woman is Krobelus who betrayed the capital and turned to the Dark Moon’s side. She is indeed a Demon Overlord powerhouse. Besides, the Dark Moon seems to have more powerful hidden Demon Overlord powerhouses...

The interlude subsided quickly. Shortly after the dinner, the palace held a welco ball.

Although Chen Rui disliked this kind of socializing the most, as the most important financial officer of the Dark Moon, he could not be absent from banquets or balls, so he had to bring Athena with him. Kia would definitely not show up to avoid causing more trouble.

Sicali’s coveting of Kia had caused Chen Rui to have a strong hostility in his heart. If he accepted Krobelus’ warning and retreat, then all was good. If he didn’t give up and had other intentions, Chen Rui would kill him without hesitation.

Athena wore a pink orange dress with a set of red gemstone-based jewelry that was designed by Kia. She was beautiful and elegant with self-confidence and heroic spirit. She attracted a lot of attention when she appeared.

Sicali looked at Chen Rui who was intimately held by Athena. An unusual expression flashed in his eyes. It was more of a kind of jealousy. However, Athena was not Kia. Not only was she one of the 3 legion commanders of the Dark Moon and sheriff, but her father, George. Wales, was also the first general of the empire. The Warlock Fortress was strong and sturdy. It was located in the north of the White Feather Estate. It was also the strongest barrier against the Bloody Empire in the north. He could provoke Kia, but he wouldn’t dare to provoke Athena. If there was any dispute, the entire White Feather Estate couldn’t bear the rage of General George.

Compared with Athena’s elegance, Shea who was in a white dress, looked cold and arrogant like snow lotus on an ice peak which was beautiful but unapproachable. There seed to be a little more warmth only when she was standing with her cute and lovely sister, Alice.

There was also a beautiful woman who sat isolated at a large table full of food. She gobbled the plates of delicacies at an astonishing speed without any deanor as if this was the only aningful matter in the ball. It seed that she was not full at all after the previous dinner. In fact, she happened to be the one who ate the most at the ti. Needless to say, it was none other than Ms. Betty.

In fact, Palando’s appearance was also good, but her temperant was much inferior. She looked arrogant and confident as if she was the most beautiful and noble woman in the world.

The ball had began. Out of courtesy, Shea accepted Sicali’s invitation for her first dance. However, Shea had already prepared earlier. She chose the original court dance song of the Demon Realm which was also a very formal court dance. After it ended with a short song, the task was completed.

Sicali was about to invite her again, but he was surrounded by so noble ladies of the Dark Moon. To be honest, Sicali’s appearance was quite suave. He was also a royal family mber and a lord. There were quite a lot of ladies who were social climber.

Chen Rui’s first dance was with Athena, but soon, Athena gave the opportunity of the second dance of waltz to her best friend, Alice. It was the first ti the little loli danced with Chen Rui in a public ball since the previous Isabella ball incident. It could be said to be a dream co true. She was blushing with excitent.

However, Alice was not very tall. When the two waltzed, it looked a little weird. In addition to Alice’s excitent, there was still a lack of cooperation. Even so, Alice was quite satisfied.

When Shea watched her sister and Chen Rui danced closely together, she suddenly felt an unspeakable feeling in her heart. However, when she saw Alice happily waving to her, her gaze softened again.

After dancing 2 dances, Chen Rui finally got rid of the clinging little loli. He ca to Shea and gently stretched out his hand.

“Can I have the honor to dance with Your Highness?”

Chen Rui was not the first person to invite Shea to dance. After dancing the first dance with Sicali. Many nobles and royal family mbers from the White Feather Estate including Sicali ca to invite her, but they were declined without exception. As for the people on the Dark Moon side, they all knew the temperant of this lord, so none of them were willing to suffer setbacks until the sir financial officer appeared.

In Shea’s eyes, she was too familiar with this action of Chen Rui. In the underground secret room of the palace, and even in the council hall, the two had danced nurous tis. Just as she was about to refuse with a cold face, her hands subconsciously reached out under everyone’s surprised gaze.

In the midst of the dance music, the princess in the white dress and the man in the black attire began to dance gracefully. They imdiately beca the focus of the audience. Whether it was the elegant dancing posture or the tacit understanding of cooperation, it was enough to overshadow others. Many people stopped their dance and watched their movents.

“Sister dances really well!” The little loli’s two big eyes were glimring with a look of admiration, “I will learn from my sister another day.”

Athena pouted. She had to admit that Shea’s dance was indeed much better than her: Hmph! Is she practicing with this guy every day?!

However, except for Athena, most people didn’t think that this was the result of their regular practice. They only thought that Shea’s talent was extraordinary. After all, this Princess Royal was a well-known iceberg beauty who never gave face to any man. Whoever dared to offend her would only end up dead.

The jealousy in Sicali’s eyes was even stronger. He secretly thought: Chen Rui must be one of Shea’s suitors, and Shea has noticed this, so she uses her beauty to firmly control this extraordinarily talented human. From his previous attitude toward Kia, it can be seen that this human has a very strong possessive desire for females. This may be a very important breakthrough.

Sicali walked to his sister and whispered a few words. Palando sneered with dissatisfaction, but she finally nodded.

One dance was finally finished. Shea ignored Chen Rui’s further request to dance for a second ti, and she went straight back to her seat. So people imdiately gathered around her and imitated his invitation, but they were all rejected...

Chen Rui was about to walk toward Athena and Alice when a figure suddenly blocked in front of him. It was Ms. Palando, the sister of the White Feather Estate’s lord.

“Chen Rui, aren’t you inviting for a dance?” Palando showed a smile which looked a little pretentious.

Chen Rui frowned, “I’m sorry, Ms. Palando, I’m very tired. I want to take a rest.”

“Okay, I’ll rest with you.” It seed that Palando was really clinging to him.

“Ms. Palando, I’m sorry, I want to be alone for a while... You also don’t want to disappoint the n who are eagerly waiting to dance with you.” Chen Rui turned toward the males who were making eye contacts not far away as he tilted his head.

“Them?” Palando showed disdain, but she changed to a delighted expression when she turned to Chen Rui, “They are just a bunch of incompetent people who flatter those in power. I don’t like weaklings!”

“I’m also a weak person. Any Higher Demon can knock down now.” Chen Rui said lightly. He turned to leave, but he was stopped by Palando again.

“You’re really not good at fighting, but in so aspects, you are a well-deserved powerhouse. Without you, it is absolutely impossible for the Dark Moon’s economy to have its current developnt and qualitative change. The reputation of the Demon Realm’s top minister of internal affairs is definitely not in vain. Wherever you go, you will be the most valued talent!” Palando seed to be arrogant, but she was also a bit eloquent. “It’s just that the Dark Moon is already at its limit. Don’t you think you are more able to unleash your talent if you change to another environnt? We can give you what Shea can give you. We can also give you what Shea can’t give you...”

While speaking, Palando’s body got closer. Chen Rui took 2 steps back, “I think you have misunderstood, Ms. Palando. Thank you very much for your appreciation and kindness, but I don’t want to change the environnt.”

Palando still didn’t give up. She leaned slightly, and the cleavage on her chest appeared instantly. She said in a flirty tone, “With you wit, don’t you know that Shea is just luring you and capitalising your value step by step? I am different; I will give you sothing substantial, or... I can also give in advance...”

Chen Rui sneered in his heart, but he looked indifferent on the surface, “I will act like I have never heard these words before. Excuse , I’m going to take a rest.”

“Insensible guy!” Palando’s face turned gloomy, “You must have lost your mind by the bitch nad Kia! Hmph. Let tell you, I’m going to marry the Iron Fist Lord of the Bloody Empire. At that ti, I will propose to the capital to let that little bitch be a dowry and go to Iron Fist Estate with . I will let her be countless n’s toys and give her a living death! This is an important diplomatic marriage between empires. Even Shea will not dare to object to this!”

Chen Rui didn’t expect Palando to be so insidious. A strong murderous intent surged in his heart. Even if he failed in the rivalry of strategic planning, he could accept it, but touching his woman had already touched his trigger point. No matter what Palando’s motive was, she had been included in the to-kill list.

Seeing Palando’s sinister gaze, Chen Rui took a deep breath and cald down. He said coldly, “Really? Then, I can’t stay in the Dark Moon anymore. I can only go to the capital to serve the regent or go to the Bloody Empire to join Raizen the Great. As a bargaining chip for allegiance, I will propose a condition which is to send you to the most dangerous border or mining area to be the most inferior camp prostitute. Most of the border residents there are exiled prisoners. They did not take a bath in almost 3 months. Just the sll is enough for you to enjoy. You will drink the sewage with sedintation, and eat dry, hard and moldy bread. It’s been a long ti since they have touched a woman, I believe you get the “best” treatnt. But don’t worry, soone with a little beauty like you is the most popular. They won’t just do it one-off like they usually do. They will keep you to enjoy you slowly...”

Palando’s face turned pale while Chen Rui smiled more calmly. He approached Palando and pretended to be affectionate, “Don’t doubt my ability and determination. You are just a whore whose marriage to the Iron Fist Estate is just a betrayal of your body for political purposes and you still feel self-righteous. To put it bluntly, you are just a pawn that can be discarded at any ti, but I’m different. You said it yourself, I’m the Demon Realm’s top minister in internal affairs. Wherever I go, I will be the most valued talent! If you want to be a whore for a lot of people, you might as well try it.”

Palando’s body shivered, and her gaze toward Chen Rui was full of fear, “You...you evil!”

“I’m just a powerless weak human. The word “evil” should be given to you as a self-righteous and vicious woman.” Chen Rui smiled kindly, “If you are prepared for a living death, then just co and provoke . I can guarantee that they won’t kill you at once; they will make you ‘enjoy’ slowly.”

When Palando saw his smile, she felt as if she saw a vicious ghost in the abyss of hell. She shuddered suddenly, and she did not dare to utter a word.

Chen Rui straightened his collar as he glanced into the distance at the little loli who was waving at him constantly, motioning him to “co here”, and he strode over. This ti Palando didn’t dare to stop him any more. Instead, she just stood there in silence, not even daring to look at the “evil” again.

Hmmm, would Sicali just give up like this?
