Chapter 481: Oh, Demon Princess (2)

"Mu Quan pays his respect to Her Highness Princess Liu Ying."

Liu Ying's mind blanked in shock.

Liu Ying's identity as a princess was her greatest secret. If her true identity was made public, her life and Bloed's life could be in danger.

Back when her family was exterminated, her life had been spared with the condition that she was sent to the Exiled Lands. But now that she had escaped that place, her family's enemies would not hesitate to come to kill her if they learned she was here.

Thus, after Liu Ying recovered from her shock, her first thought was to kill Mu Quan.

But after hesitating briefly, she sighed to himself.

Mu Quan was definitively stronger than her. Even if she gave her all, she did not believe she could kill him.

And even if she killed him, there was a high chance that Mu Quan had already spread this information to other people.

After considering that, Liu Ying calmed herself and looked at Mu Quan with a frown. Perhaps, she could still rescue this situation.

"I think I told you that you had the wrong person before, right? Even though my name is Liu Ying, I'm not any kind of princess."

"There is no need to lie anymore, Your Highness. During the disturbance several days ago, Your Highness accidentally revealed the true form of your aspect. There is no way I can fail to recognize the royal family's Chaos Titan."

Liu Ying's expression fell. It seemed like the situation was worse than she thought.

She was aware that Mu Quan had been suspecting her true identity for a while now. But before this, her different hair and eyes plus her disguised aspect made him hesitate.

But now that he saw the Chaos Titan, the true form of her aspect, she knew that it was useless to continue lying.

As Mu Quan said. There is no way he can misrecognize the aspect of the royal family.

Understanding that, Liu Ying heaved a sigh and put on an ice-cold expression.

"… What do you want? Are you planning to reveal my true identity?"

"Of course not." Mu Quan denied it immediately. "Your Highness perhaps is not aware of it, but the Mu family has been a loyal servant to the crown during many generations. Now that we have found the righteous heir to the crown, there is no way we can do something treacherous to her."

Liu Ying's expression relaxed a little bit, but she retained her wariness.

"Then, what do you want?"

"We hope you can return to the kingdom and regain your rightful place, Your Highness."

Liu Ying was stunned. "Return?"

Seeing her reaction, Mu Quan stared straight into her eyes and continued.

"The current Demon King used dirty and unlawful means to obtain the throne. He betrayed the sun of the Demon Kingdom and massacred the royal family. We, the Mu family, can't accept something like that.

"We are not the only ones. Many nobles of the Demon Kingdom are waiting for the return of Your Highness. The people of the kingdom know about the injustices of the false king, and they wait anxiously that your highness returns everything to its rightful place."

Liu Ying fell silent.

For an instant, many complicated expressions appeared on her face. However, her expression soon became gloomy.

"... Even if I return, there is no way I can defeat that traitor."

"You are mistaken, Your Highness. As I told you, our family and many other families are waiting anxiously for Your Highness's return. As soon as you return to the kingdom, they will rise in arms and help you to find justice for the deceased king."

"Justice, huh." Liu Ying's expression became bitter.

At that moment, she remembered the night when everything changed. That night, her father, her mother, and her siblings looked at her in pain, determination, and despair, as they sent her away.

They risked their lives just to give her a chance to survive despite being aware that they would not survive.

They never asked her to avenge their deaths. They never told her to become stronger and kill the traitors. They only told her to survive.

But Liu Ying knew that even if they did not say it, deep inside them, they hoped she could avenge them one day.

Now, an opportunity to avenge them had arrived.

Of course, it was possible that Mu Quan was lying. Perhaps it was a trap to capture her.

But when she thought about it, she realized that it was unnecessary. If Mu Quan wanted to harm her, he only needed to reveal her location to the new royal family. Then, it was unknown how long she could live.

Deeply, Liu Ying was aware that Mu Quan's words were most likely true. He probably had other intentions as well, but it did not matter if she could avenge her family.

Then, why… why was she not excited? Why was she hesitating now?

At this moment, the friends she had made since she left the Exiled Lands appeared in her mind. Regina, Aya, Princess Elwha, Gina, Sara, Prince Calisto...

And Bloed.

The man she had fallen in love with.

Liu Ying bit her lips and closed her eyes. Revenge, huh.

She then took a deep breath and looked at Mu Quan shakily.

"… I need to think about it."

Mu Quan nodded. He did not press her and just bowed respectfully.

"I understand, Your Highness. If you come to a decision, you can find me in the Headquarters of the Guardian Order." He then waved his hand, extinguishing the flames surrounding them.

Liu Ying hummed in answer and turned around to leave. Grabbing Little Gina's hand, who was looking at her with a concerned expression, she walked away.

When she was gone, a figure appeared suddenly behind Mu Quan.

"Is this really alright, father?" Mu Quan asked.

The figure nodded.

"She carries the blood of the Liu Family, the bloodline of Chaos Titans. She will eventually agree.

"And then, our Mu Family will finally rise."
