<h4>Chapter 643: My Wife Will Always Be You</h4>


    The Peacock Great Demon King sighed and said, "At a time like this, are you still going to be angry with me? My wife has always been, and will always be, you."


    The queen consort was stunned. He was saying this to her in front of Su Qin? And at a time when the Peacock Demon n was facing extermination? Her resentment lessened slightly, but when she saw Su Qin''s beautiful face, anger red up again, and she snorted coldly.


    The Peacock Great Demon King seemed unfazed by her attitude and said gently, "Maybe you don’t believe me, but let me tell you this again: In this lifetime, I''ve only ever loved you. Do you remember what I said to you on our wedding night? I told you I would do everything in my power during my lifetime to restore the Peacock Demon n to its former glory, to make our n stand among the strongest. Only then would I be worthy of your devotion and kindness.


    "You''re right. Without you, I could never have be the n leader, let alone the lord of Kali City. When I first met you, I had no ambitions. Back then, you were a lofty princess, and although I was from the right family, I was just an insignificant junior. You were a year older than me. I often secretly watched you, thinking that you looked so beautiful, so noble!


    "As we grew older, I worked hard, but my talent was just average. At best, I was a bit smarter than other n members. In terms of strength and bloodline, I wasn''t particrly outstanding. But you were different. You were a direct heir to the Emperor''s lineage, with the noblest bloodline in our n. Yet, when it came time for you to take a husband, you chose me. You chose someone who wasn''t particrly exceptional. Do you know how I felt at that moment? I felt dizzy, as if I was on top of the world. I''ve never dared to ask why you chose me. Can you tell me now?"

    Listening to the Peacock Great Demon King''s gentle narration, the queen consort''s expression gradually changed. She had thought he had long forgotten all this, but now he was recounting it so clearly.


    It had been decades since these events, but as she listened to him now, the icy expression on the queen consort''s face gradually melted.


    "Because you''re smart. You were the smartest of our generation," the queen consort murmured. "The first time I noticed you was during a n school exam. I studied alone at the n school, but each test I took was the same as yours. You couldn''t see my papers, but I could see yours. There were rankings for the n school exams, you know? Although your bloodline power andbat strength weren''t the highest, you were always the absolute top when it came to knowledge."


    Pausing for a moment, the queen consort then continued, "And I was always second."


    The Peacock Great Demon King was stunned. "So, because you could never beat me in exams, you..."


    The queen consort turned her head away and said faintly, "At that time, I didn''t have the privilege to like anyone. Because of my bloodline, the n only allowed me to choose a spouse from the direct lineage. It’s just as Su Qin said: As a bearer of the Emperor''s bloodline, it was my duty to bear offspring for the n. I chose you because I valued your intelligence. I thought that with your intelligence and my bloodline power, our offspring would be exceptional."


    The Peacock Great Demon King smiled bitterly. "So that''s how it is. I wondered how an insignificant guy like me could earn your favor. But my bloodline still held us back, and our child didn''t inherit a truly powerful bloodline."


    The queen consort snorted. "<i>Your</i> bloodline had issues? Then how did you produce such a daughter? Why couldn''t you give <i>me</i> such an exceptional child?"


    The Peacock Great Demon King looked at her with an unusual expression and said, "There’s actually a very good exnation for that, and you’ll find out in a few moments. In fact, you''ve been wrong all along. You can hate me, and you can hate Su Qin if you want, but you can’t hate Little Mei."


    The queen consort was taken aback.


    In the distance, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor had grown impatient and said, "Are you done yet?"


    The Peacock Great Demon King turned to him and said calmly, "Shouldn''t you let me talk a bit more now? After all, I''m your rival in love, and watching your rival confess his feelings to another woman should satisfy your twisted mind, shouldn''t it?"


    After speaking, he no longer looked at the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor and turned back to the queen consort. "After you chose me, you put in all your effort to help me, to raise my cultivation, to help me control the n’s divine artifact, and even used your emperor bloodline to stimte mine, making me stronger. Without you, I’m not sure I would have be a Great Demon King, much less the n leader. You helped me grow step by step to the strength I have now. Back then, I could sense that you didn''t really like me, but as time went on, you grew fond of me, right?"


    The queen consort pressed her lips tightly. "Who the hell is fond of you? Don''t tter yourself, it''s just responsibility!"


    The Peacock Great Demon Kingughed. "Don’t bother. The more you deny it, the more it proves I''m right. I know your personality too well. But you didn''t lose out, because I loved you from the beginning. I always admired you when we were young, and I could not be happier to marry you and have children together. I''ve always deeply loved you, and that never changed, even for a second."


    "Never changed? If you''ve never changed, then what about her?" the queen consort said, turning to look at Su Qin.


    The Peacock Great Demon King sighed. "That was all for the promise I made when we got married. And now, it’s time for me to tell you everything. Today is myst day in this world, and there is nothing left to hide. We need to rify everything. Come, Lin Ximo, let''s have our final battle. Let my wife and Su Qin witness it."


    As he spoke, he raised his hand, creating a silver arc that enveloped Su Qin and the queen consort, making them disappear instantly and reappear high in the sky.


    Standing on the tform, Mei Gongzi was shocked to see her mother taken away. She was about to chase after them, but Tang San grabbed her and held her back.


    Mei Gongzi turned to look at him in confusion. Tang San sighed softly and said, "The Peacock Great Demon King''s lifeforce is already irreversibly drained. His physique, bloodline power, and divine consciousness all took serious damage because of that fight; then, during your tribtion, he suffered from the aftershocks as he protected you. His life is at its end. But your mother will be fine, trust me. Let''s wait here and let the older generation resolve their own matters. Don''t worry, the Peacock Demon n will be fine, and so will Kali City."


    Mei Gongzi''s heart stirred, and she asked in confusion, "Do you know something?"


    Tang San nodded, "Your father told me some things, but I promised him I wouldn''t tell you yet. It''s for your own good. When you be an Emperor in the future, you''ll understand."


    Mei Gongzi was taken aback. "What exactly is it?"


    Tang San simply shook his head lightly. He couldn''t lie to her, but it was also not the right time to tell her.


    A beam of crystalline light streaked across the sky, soaring into the heights. Instantly, the entire sky was filled with the powerful divine consciousness pressure of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor.
