Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler

But, even so, Long still felt exhausted after a day’s journey.

At night, they slept outside because they did not arrived at the next city.

To prevent attacks from enemies, many guardians kept watch at night.

After a makeshift tent was pitched, Long simply wiped his body with water and then fell into a deep sleep.

Without knowing how long had passed, the voice of a guardian sounded outside.

Shi got up and walked out, “What happened?”

Ying Qiu answered, “I got a message from spies in the Eastern Darkness.”

A little surprised, Shi took over the message, then shattered the script with internal strength after glancing over it.

The guardian stood there, waiting for Shi’s command. But Shi said nothing.

The guardian did not dare to leave without permission, just waiting quietly.

After a long time, Shi finally said, “Keep guarding.”

Knowing that shi asked him to guard the tent, the guardian immediately responded, “Yes!”

Shi walked toward Liu and Ouyang.

Both of them were good at martial arts, who could just rest in the tree without pitching a tent.

Shi directly flew to the branches of the tree.

Ouyang and Liu glanced at each other, then Liu asked, “Shi Qingzhou? What’s the matter at this hour of the night?”

“Go to the city with me now. I need your cooperation.”

Liu was stunned, “What happened?”

Shi turned around and flied away without saying any word.

Liu frowned slightly, “Follow him to check it out.”

Having no comment on it, Ouyang nodded.

Then, they followed Shi like a shot…

Three persons hurried on with their journey in tandem.

After about two hours, they had entered in the city.

Shi kept heading in one direction on purpose. Liu did not know what Shi wanted to do, so he could only follow Shi.

Shi flew very fast. The only reason that Liu and Ouyang could catch up with him was their powerful martial arts.

Finally, Shi stopped at a place like a house.

“There are 29 people with strong martial arts in the house, kill all of them.” Shi coldly gave an order.

Liu looked solemn, “Who are they?”

Shi did not reply, but intended to rush inside to kill them.

Frowning greatly, Liu stopped him, “Shi, leave them to us. Don’t forget your sequelae of the insect. If you keep acting recklessly, I will get Long here.”

Hearing this, Shi got chills all over his body, and he coldly gazed at Liu as if he was about to attack Liu.

Liu said in a cold voice, “I’m not kidding, Shi Qingzhou, I will go back to get Long here as long as you kill a person.”

For the time being, Ouyang kind of admired Liu’s courage to confront Shi.

However, Liu’s confrontation did not make Shi compromise. On the contrary, Shi’s homicidal intent became stronger, and the light red of his eyes changed to deep red.

Shi’s voice turned even colder than that of Liu, “If you dare get Long here, I will kill Ouyang.”

Shi then flew into the house, starting killing people cruelly.

Liu gasped with shock.

Ouyang was slightly stunned that Shi was supposed to be a little weaker than them in martial arts, but he unexpectedly had a bloody murderous aura several times stronger than that of them.

Shi’s words definitely made Ouyang feel his homicidal intent. If Liu dared get Long here, no one would doubt whether Shi was kidding.

Ouyang and Liu glanced at each other. At last, Ouyang said, “There’s something wrong with Shi Qingzhou… He certainly would become a demon if he continues killing.”

Liu tightly clenched his fists, “Yes, … he would become a demon if he continues killing.”

Ouyang lightly pursed his lips, “Regardless of what he will be later, today… follow him.”

Liu gave a bitter smile, “If it goes on like this… Shi is destined to be a real murderous demon. When it comes true, everything will be late… No, we need to stop it. Ouyang, let’s try our best to kill more enemies and end this action as soon as possible.”

“Agreed.” Ouyang nodded. Both of them hopped to struggle through the day first.

Then, they stopped discussing, but rushed into the fight…

Long was sleeping soundly that night, who had no idea about the absence of Shi and things happened to Shi.

When Long woke up, it was the morning of the next day.

He looked at the sky and found the absence of Shi, but he didn’t think too much, just thought his lover got up earlier as usual.

After yawning, Long got up.

“Qingzhou.” Long smiled when he got out and saw Shi walking to him with a basin of water.

Shi gave a slight nod, with a smile on his face, “Yes, you’ve gotten up?”

In a tree, Liu and Ouyang looked at each other, finding some imperceptive panic in the eyes of each other.

As a matter of fact, they killed the enemies very fast last night, but relatively slow compared with Shi.

In addition, after they came back late last night, Shi unexpectedly attacked Ouyang and threatened, “If Long knows what happened last night, I will kill Ouyang no matter who reveals it to him.”

To prevent Long from getting to know what he did, he even could kill Ouyang, which really frighten them.

It did not mean they were afraid of death… it meant Shi seemingly had turned into a demon.

Last night, Ouyang responded, “So, we choose leave.”

But Shi laughed, “Leave? It was Ouyang who brought the most toxic insect. Do you want to shift the responsibility? Alright, one of you could leave at the cost of the other one’s life.”

Shi just bounded them together, so no one could leave.

How terrible such a Shi Qingzhou was!

Honestly, Shi probably could not stop them if Liu and Ouyang tried best to escape.

But all this territory belonged to the emperor. If Shi did not let them off, they absolutely believed that they could not escape successfully.

Moreover, the disaster from the most toxic insect was indeed brought here by Ouyang, even if they were victims too.

But, if the most terrible murderous demon was created by the insect, they would be too shamed to see their master. So they had to stay, and found a way to stop Shi from being a murderous demon.
