Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Chapter 1232 The girl in love with spring

The Kingdom of Fallen Angels, the Capital of Fallen Angels.

This magnificent city, known as the second largest capital in the realm of the Dark Races, stands on a vast plateau perpetually shrouded in pale purple magical mist. It is the capital of the Fallen Angel Kingdom!

Countless spires and towers, like black swords piercing the sky, connect the dark metal and magical obsidian buildings to create a dark atmosphere. From time to time, patrols of fallen angels with black wings sweep across the streets, casting swift shadows.

In the heart of the city, a magnificent castle sits atop the highest point, overlooking the entire territory.

At this moment, in the throne room at the highest point of this castle.

Ye Bing was reclining on the queen's throne, which was carved from a single piece of dark gemstone. One hand was lazily supporting her cheek, and her long, beautiful legs were casually crossed and raised. The luxurious dark skirt flowed down like water.

Her eyes were unfocused, as if she were lost in distant thoughts, her beautiful face displaying a dazed expression that seemed out of place with the solemn surroundings.

Below, a group of fallen angels' high-ranking officials and generals respectfully prostrated themselves on the smooth, mirror-like obsidian floor of the hall.

Seeing that the Queen remained silent for a long time, no one dared to disturb her, and could only whisper among themselves through a secret mental link:

'The Queen's expression is so grave; this incident must be extremely serious!'

'This is definitely serious! Gene companies, the Temple of Light, the Yin Cult... which one of them isn't a behemoth that stirs up storms? And yet, overnight, everything has been turned upside down, and such a change has occurred...'

'I heard that even Lady Yueyou was seriously injured this time, no wonder Her Majesty the Queen is so angry!'

I think a great battle is imminent!

'The Queen must be racking her brains right now, worrying about the storm that's about to hit.'

'Yes, I've never seen the Queen with such a serious and thoughtful expression...'

No sooner had she finished speaking than Ye Bing, who was perched high on her throne, suddenly chuckled and grinned without warning. A silly, cloying smile appeared on her originally noble and aloof face, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn upwards, as if she had thought of something extremely pleasant.

The assembled officials below: "..."

The ministers and generals exchanged bewildered glances. After a brief silence, the mental communication surged wildly once more:

'What's wrong with Her Majesty the Queen? She doesn't look angry.'

"It's obvious! His Majesty must have already devised a brilliant solution, and is confident in his abilities, which is why he showed such a confident and proud smile!"

'A confident smile... but why do I feel that Her Majesty's expression is somewhat like that of a young girl experiencing her first love?'

"Don't talk nonsense! That's Her Majesty the Queen! Are you out of your mind?!"

'I believe the Queen has foreseen the opportunities hidden within this upheaval among the myriad races! If war breaks out again among the races, the格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall balance of power and destiny) will be reshaped!'

"Indeed! In times of chaos, crisis can also be a golden opportunity! If we can seize this opportunity to defeat the demon race, our people can ascend to the pinnacle of the dark races! The Queen must have already devised a grand plan to lead us to victory!"

'...'

Ye Bing was completely unaware that the ministers below were already lost in their own thoughts, fantasizing and imagining a grand scheme for her.

She still rested her chin on her hand, her eyes hazy, still savoring the sudden embrace from before.

'That wretched fellow... how dare he sneak up on me and grab me while I wasn't looking!'

Why didn't I kick him away then?

'Hmm...it must have been his sneak attack that was too fast; I didn't have time to react.'

'Next time we meet, I'll teach him a lesson! I'll show him what the price is for offending the Fallen Angel Queen!'

Ye Bing thought this fiercely to herself.

She was completely unaware that her sticky and silly expression was so incongruous with the dignity she should have been displaying at that moment.

At this moment, Yueyou walked steadily into the palace from outside the door, came to the foot of the throne, placed one hand on her chest, and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty."

"..."

Ye Bing showed no reaction, remaining immersed in her own world.

"...Your Majesty?" Yue You asked, slightly puzzled, raising her voice a little.

"Uh...?" Ye Bing suddenly came to her senses, quickly composed herself, and coughed lightly twice to cover her mouth: "Ahem... It's Yue You, when did you arrive?"

Yueyou: "...I've been here for a while now."

"Your Majesty, you must have been pondering the changes at this All Races Summit and their impact on the future territorial landscape, right?"

A senior fallen angel minister spoke solemnly, his tone filled with admiration, "Seeing your confident smile just now, you must have already devised a sound strategy to deal with the war and the upheavals among the races. So, what should our next step be? Should we first wage war against the demon race, or first subdue the devil race? ... Or should we first intimidate and subdue those races of light?"

"..."

Ye Bing frowned slightly: "What are you talking about? I just took a nap."

"...Huh?" The fallen angel minister was somewhat bewildered: "But you were laughing so happily just now...I thought..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Bing's heart tightened suddenly.

You said I was laughing very happily just now?

“Yes…” the fallen angel minister said, “I have never seen you smile so happily before…”

"This, this is impossible!" Ye Bing immediately straightened her face, completely unwilling to admit it. So she turned to look at the other ministers and generals in the hall: "Was I laughing happily just now?"

"Uh......"

The other ministers and generals were dumbfounded. They were about to nod when they saw Ye Bing's increasingly sharp gaze, so they quickly shook their heads.

"No no......"

"You looked so serious just now!"

"Yes, yes, the Queen's expression just now was like she wanted to kill someone!"

"That's pretty much it."

Ye Bingxin nodded with satisfaction.

She thought to herself, "I was just thinking about that most despicable guy in the world, how could I possibly be laughing?"
