Chapter 190: I Do Not Recommend Going In…

After strolling around Yongye Juncheng for a long time, Luo Ruying had seen many, many strange things in the Demon Realm, felt the enthusiasm of the Demon Realm’s people, and also tasted the various specialty foods of the Demon Realm…

However, though they had walked for half the day, they had only walked through the tip of the iceberg of Yongye Juncheng.

Yongye Juncheng, large enough to accommodate tens of millions of citizens—they hadn’t even finished walking through a tenth of it.

Luo Hongye had even eaten until her little belly was round and bulging, to the point where she couldn’t eat anymore…

Luo Ruying also had to sigh in admiration; it was truly worthy of being the capital of the Demon Realm.

This level of prosperity and magnificence was comparable to any place in the Heavenly Realm.

After strolling leisurely on the streets for a while longer, Luo Ruying noticed a palace decorated with skeletons and weapons situated in a corner of Yongye Juncheng.

The palace stood tall, crisscrossed with iron chains, and decorated with ferocious and terrifying skeletons. Among them were no lack of many human bones hung up, and countless blood-stained, dilapidated weapons were stuck into the palace.

Looking from afar, one could feel a gloomy and ice-cold, hair-raising sensation…!

From the very beginning, Luo Ruying had vaguely sensed that Ning Yechen had been intentionally or unintentionally leading her to avoid this terrifying palace…

This, on the contrary, piqued her curiosity.

“Husband, what place is that?”

Luo Ruying asked, pointing her hand towards the Execution Palace towering in the distance.

Ning Yechen was momentarily at a loss for words. He hesitated in his heart for a moment, and still decided it was best not to tell Luo Ruying for the time being.

He was afraid that if she actually became curious and wanted to go in and see, it would not be good…

“Wife, that place… is actually a horror-themed hotel…!”

Ning Yechen said after some thought.

“Why would a horror-themed hotel raise a barrier?”

Hearing this, Luo Ruying looked towards the Execution Palace again and asked, puzzled.

Even from far away, she could sense several barriers enveloping the palace, and not a single sound came out.

Nor did she see anyone going inside.

“Because… hotels, you know, can be a little noisy…”

“So they use barriers for soundproofing to avoid disturbing others.”

Ning Yechen gave an embarrassed smile and continued to explain.

Luo Ruying keenly sensed something. She had a feeling that Ning Yechen was trying to trick her again, so she took Luo Hongye’s hand and began walking towards the Execution Palace.

This gave Ning Yechen a fright, and he hurriedly followed.

If his wife and child saw this, they would probably have nightmares at night…!

“My wife, that hotel… ordinary people actually can’t go in…”

Ning Yechen tried to persuade her from her side.

Who would have thought that Luo Ruying would directly ask in return:

“Not even me?”

Ning Yechen: “…”

This question left Ning Yechen speechless on the spot, with no way to refute it.

She was his wife, the First Madam of the Demon Realm. Logically, she could of course go anywhere, so entering the Execution Palace was naturally not a problem either…

After a moment of silence, Ning Yechen nodded.

“Of course, my wife can…”

“However, I do not recommend going in…”

Luo Ruying’s eyes narrowed slightly as she gazed at Ning Yechen.

He really seemed unwilling to let her get close to that place…

Luo Hongye, standing on the ground, looked up at the skeletons hanging on the Execution Palace swaying in the wind, and asked, pointing with her tender little hand:

“Daddy, are those bones?”

“They look like human ones…”

“Er… Ye Ye, don’t be afraid. Those are fake, they’re just for decoration~”

Ning Yechen crouched down, stroked Luo Hongye’s head, and said with an embarrassed smile.

The child was still young. No matter what, he could not let his precious daughter be psychologically scarred!

Although she would find out sooner or later, at least for now, the child’s innocent and romantic pure heart had to be protected by him, her old father!

Luo Ruying also looked up, gazing at the various skeletons hanging above. No matter how she looked at them, they seemed real…

And just at this moment, a man wearing a white apron, his entire body covered in sutures and stitches, slowly walked towards the Execution Palace, dragging something unidentifiable behind him.

The white apron on the man’s body was stained with so much blood it was almost black.

Countless strangely shaped knives, hammers, axes, and other tools hung from his waist, and the tools clinked together with a chilling sound as he walked.

The thing in his hand was a bloody, mangled mess, dragging a long, bright red trail of blood on the ground. Yet, the man’s face wore a creepy, extremely excited smile, and he neurotically muttered to himself:

“How many are there today again…?”

“Who should I go ‘play’ with first~”

“Little Li? No, he’s on the verge of death again, and Lord Left Guardian said he can’t die…”

“Mortals are truly fragile~ Not ‘fun’ to play with at all…”

“Let’s switch to Little Ming today~!”

“That’s right! Didn’t Demon Lord bring me a new gift yesterday~! I’ll ‘favor’ him today~! Hehehe~”

Gazing at this horrifying scene before her, Luo Ruying turned her head and asked Ning Yechen beside her in a daze:

“Husband… is this really a hotel…?”

“Cough cough, yes, my wife…”

Ning Yechen replied after coughing twice.

“There’s obviously blood all over his clothes…!”

Luo Ruying demanded, pointing at the bloodstains on Tian Xing.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a proper hotel!

“My wife, he’s… actually a chef in the hotel. It’s very normal for him to have a little blood on him…”

Ning Yechen explained to Luo Ruying with a serious face.

“Then that thing he’s holding is a corpse, isn’t it!”

Luo Ruying knitted her beautiful brows and pointed again at the corpse in Tian Xing’s hand.

“That should be a freshly slaughtered… ingredient!”

Ning Yechen explained again.

He didn’t even believe the words he himself was saying…

Naturally, it was even more impossible for Luo Ruying to believe him.

That thing he was holding was clearly a human leg…!

The sound of Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying’s conversation was noticed by Tian Xing. After turning his head and seeing Ning Yechen, a sharp glint instantly appeared in Tian Xing’s eyes.

“De-Demon Lord…?!”

“Your arrival is truly my, Tian Xing’s, utmost honor~!”

Tian Xing, dragging the corpse in his hand, appeared before Ning Yechen with a flash step and prostrated on the ground with a look of fanatical worship.

The general etiquette in the Demon Realm was to place a hand on the chest and bow slightly; a more respectful gesture was to kneel on one knee.

But Tian Xing directly knelt on both knees, opening his arms towards Ning Yechen in praise.

This was his utmost gratitude towards Ning Yechen for allowing the Execution Palace to be preserved.

Moreover, Ning Yechen almost never came to the Execution Palace. To be able to see Demon Lord visit in person, Tian Xing instantly felt he had received an unprecedented special honor~!

Luo Ruying was startled by Tian Xing’s fanatical and pathological appearance and quickly shielded Luo Hongye, who was beside her, behind her back.

From Tian Xing’s body, she sensed a terrifying, suffocating aura…!

This person’s cultivation was at least that of an Immortal Emperor!

The thick, pungent, bloody smell assaulted her senses, and his pair of strangely split eyes made her feel as if the flesh and bone of her entire body were being peeled away!

Her intuition told her that if this person made a move, he could peel off a person’s entire skin completely without harming a single trace of the flesh beneath!

Looking up close, there were countless suture marks on Tian Xing’s body, and the various patches of skin were almost all different.

It was completely unimaginable how many people’s skins had been stitched onto his body…!

Ning Yechen noticed Luo Ruying, whose expression was dazed with fear. He reached out and held her slender, soft hand, giving her an apologetic smile.

This was why he had been unwilling to let his wife and child near the Execution Palace…

This fellow was also an extremely perverted and terrifying existence in the Demon Realm.
