Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73: "Where are my oranges?"

"Master you were so loud out there? Of course, we woke up. What, umm, what happened out there?" said Lian, tilting her head while Mei was nudging her to stay quiet.

Xiang Yu sighed, his anger melting away as he attempted to compose himself. "Just had an argument with that ugly bastard," he replied, trying to sound dismissive. He hoped they didn’t see that embarrassing moment of him being suppressed by that idiot.

In their eyes, he was the all-powerful Demon King who could slaughter ten thousand at the wave of his hand, so how could he be suppressed by a soul fragment of this broken immortal? This proud master would lose face.

"But it looked intense and master look... Your wrist is red," Lian pressed on and Mei reached over to cover her mouth to silence her.

Xiang Yu, "..." This venerable one had already lost face. They had seen it all. How embarrassing.

"You should see the other guy. I had a dagger to his throat, and I cut him," he said, struggling to save his image in their eyes. He had already lost face once and didn’t want to repeat the same thing but it was too late.

The Twins’ expressions turned troubled like they were worried that he hurt Han Xin and would suffer retribution from the Divine Emperor. They were right to worry because the Divine Emperor was also scolding him in his mind.

Xiang Yu rolled his eyes while standing up. "All of you stop acting like he is so fragile. Relax, it was just a nick. He will live. Trust me, he’s tougher than he looks... What you should be worried about is him losing face in his military camp," he said with a sly smile.

He was half right. The general didn’t lose face but his subordinates saw a side of him that they had never imagined they would witness. With no other source of entertainment, the general’s little tryst with the Princess of Yige became all they could talk about.

"Ah, my muscles are aching. It hurts everywhere, and I lost my dagger," he complained and as expected, the twins completely forgot about Han Xin. They were now concerned for their dear master. Xiang Yu wasn’t putting up an act. His muscles truly ached. He had rolled off a mountain slope and slept on the ground. If it was his body before, he wouldn’t even feel it.
