Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 351

Chapter 351: Slight nsfw

Xiang Yize had grown up alongside his father, a loyal subordinate, yet he plotted to kill him during the siege of Kraz, blaming the death on the rebel captain.

He had even hunted down Han Xin’s mother, ensuring that she would not escape. To protect her son, she had given him away, leaving him at an orphanage, sealing her own fate.

It was a miracle that Xiang Yize had remained unaware of the birth; if he had known, Han Xin would have been hunted down too. Now, Xiang Yize stood with the right to the throne, untouchable and unopposed. Han Xin’s heart burned with the desire for revenge.

He wanted to take everything from Xiang Yize. In his past life, he had almost killed Xiang Yu right in front of Xiang Yize, but the lord felt nothing. He had shown no reaction as his son was beaten to a pulp and left hanging at death’s door.

If Xiang Yize was indifferent to Xiang Yu’s suffering, then he would feel the same about Peng Xiu. To him, his children were mere pawns, tools to achieve his grand ambitions. That’s all he saw his children as.

The only person he truly cherished in his heart was already dead. That person was Xiang Yu’s mother. When she died he didn’t bury her. He preserved her body in a display case forever untouched by time.

When Han Xin attempted to smash the glass he finally saw the emotions he wanted to see in Xiang Yize. He could see the devotion in that man’s gaze, a fierce love that had turned into a shrine of memories. At that time he couldn’t understand how Xiang Yize could be this obsessed with someone.

This was why when he was reborn he found it pointless to kill Xiang Yu right away. It was a the most logical decision then but now he was rethinking it. Xiang Yu was slowly turning into his weakness and he hadn’t even realised it yet.

He suddenly unlocked his communicator, curiosity gnawing at him. He needed to know how Xiang Yu had reacted when he left abruptly. He wanted to know if he was sad he had left.

The screen flickered to life, revealing Xiang Yu’s room. In the surveillance, Xiang Yu was wrapping his arms around a weird looking plush. Han Xin instantly knew that it was Hex.

His eyes narrowed, irritation bubbling within him. This Hex was starting to get on his nerves. Not only did it call Xiang Yu, Yu Yu endlessly but now it was hugging him. Han Xin snorted coldly.

He told himself to stop watching and that he should distance himself from Xiang Yu, yet he couldn’t tear his gaze away. Each moment felt like a thread binding him closer to Xiang Yu, despite his earlier decision to let go.

Then, the scene shifted. Xiang Yu emerged from the bathroom, shirtless, droplets of water tracing down his toned muscles. His hair clung to his forehead, hiding his eyes, but the beauty of his form was undeniable.
