The demoness Chi Li wore a look of delicate anger, exuding an innate arrogance. She looked like a sacred and inviolable queen. Coupled with her exquisitely frosty visage and perfect figure, she was truly full of charm.
What a pity.
She was clearly a high-quality babe, yet she actually gave him the cold shoulder.
As a universe-class handsome guy, Lu Benwei immediately felt displeased. However, being a gentleman, he couldn't lose his temper at a girl, so he could only vent his frustration elsewhere.
He stomped his foot down hard, which brought suffering to the White-Pupiled Ugly Demon.
The demon immediately bared his fangs in pain. Filled with grievances but not daring to lash out, he felt both stifled and resentful.
"Hiss..."
"Argh!"
"Stop stepping on me, stop stepping on me! This has nothing to do with me!"
He was truly feeling wronged. He hadn't provoked anyone and had been obediently silent for a long time, not even daring to utter a word. Yet, for no reason at all, he was used as a punching bag. All he could do was beg for mercy and apologize, taking the blame for this sudden disaster. He was so aggrieved that tears were almost welling up in his eyes.
The more he howled, the more infinitely wronged he felt.
Hearing the miserable pleas for mercy, the demoness Chi Li's cold eyes froze, and her previous arrogance unconsciously restrained itself a little.
This voice sounded familiar...
She looked toward the source of the sound.
Beneath the little skeleton's chair, there was actually a spatial rift, and his foot was stepping right on a white-pupiled face exposed through the gap!
The moment she saw those white pupils and black eyes, Chi Li paled in fright!
She stood there dumbfounded, crying out in stunned disbelief.
"To... Totem Lord?!"
At this moment.
She looked as if she had been struck by lightning. Her face turned incredibly pale, and her mind was buzzing endlessly. Even seeing the truth with her own eyes, her gaze only revealed unbelievable shock!
That was the Totem Lord, the very faith of the entire Demon Race!
No matter how many years passed or how many rulers changed, the Totem Lord had always been the foundation of the Demon Race. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the source of their demonic power!
And now, he was actually being trampled underfoot like a servant?
How could this be possible!?
Chi Li's clear eyes trembled endlessly, and her delicate body shuddered involuntarily from the shock.
Following the Totem Lord's gaze upward, she once again noticed the little skeleton lying on the lounge chair. The arrogance in her eyes vanished completely, replaced by unspeakable shock and terror.
When she spoke again, she had become extremely cautious!
"You..."
"Just what kind of existence are you, to actually reduce the Totem Lord to such a state?!"
"My Demon Race has stood proudly through the ages. Even facing True Gods, we have no fear. The Totem Lord is a supreme existence that transcends all living beings. How could he possibly be pinned under your foot..."
The more she spoke, the more her voice trembled. A look of panic had already surfaced in Chi Li's eyes.
Seeing the babe so nervous and finally recognizing a bit of the truth, Lu Benwei elegantly interlaced his fingers, rested his chin on them, and sat up.
"Babe."
"You finally know how awesome this handsome guy is now, right? But don't worry, you are much better than this loser. I definitely won't make things difficult for you. As long as you are a bit sensible, this good big brother will definitely take care of you. There will be massive benefits!"
Hearing his domineering voice, Chi Li only dared to mutter in a trembling voice. Her tone still carried a bit of disbelief, her eyes revealing shock and doubt as if she were in a dream.
"This is impossible..."
"This is absolutely impossible!"
"I don't believe any of this, it's all an illusion! Our Demon Race has always reigned above all living beings, and the Totem Lord would absolutely never be in such a sorry state!"
Ever since she was born, Chi Li had been a high and mighty existence. Suddenly seeing her faith being crushed by someone, she felt her entire worldview collapse. No matter what, she couldn't accept it right away.
Seeing that she was still living in a dream and completely ignorant of how vast the world was, Lu Benwei merely smiled faintly.
"Babe."
"It's not that this gentleman wants to say hurtful things, but facts are facts. Your Demon Race might seem like you have something going on, but in the true grand scheme of things, you're nothing but trash. You aren't even qualified to be pawns."
"Unless we are short on materials and occasionally hunt down a few demons, who would even spare you a glance normally? Don't think that just because others are too lazy to bother with you, you're all that impressive. If we weren't truly too busy, your Demon Race would have been wiped out long ago."
Chi Li stared blankly as she heard this, gritting her teeth and shaking her head repeatedly.
"Impossible..."
"Our Demon Race is absolutely not that weak. You are humiliating us!"
Lu Benwei sighed helplessly, glancing down at his foot from the corner of his eye.
"Humiliating?"
"If you don't believe me, ask this ugly fellow and see what he has to say to refute it."
"Your Demon Race is merely surviving in the cracks. Just because you act as lapdogs for two slightly bigger pieces of trash, you think you have the capital to run amok across the heavens? It's just that this scumbag looks down on you, otherwise I could wipe you all out in minutes."
"But even if I don't care to do it, the day of your Demon Race's annihilation isn't far away."
"As soon as the last little friend under the Master's tutelage appears, you will become his stepping stones. At most, you'll serve as practice material. Your annihilation is already a foregone conclusion."
Whoosh!
Hearing this, Chi Li felt entirely chilled, as if a basin of ten-thousand-year glacial water had been poured over her!
She couldn't believe it. The Demon Race identity she had been proud of since birth was actually such a feeble existence. Were all her past feelings of superiority just a result of her own ignorance?
Thinking of this, she unwillingly and anxiously lowered her head.
She saw that the Totem Lord beneath the lounge chair had quietly closed his eyes, not daring to make another sound. It was as if he had tacitly acknowledged everything, or as if he was filled with infinite dread, daring to be angry but not daring to speak.
This lowly appearance left Chi Li utterly dumbfounded.
Instantly.
An unprecedented shock surged in her heart like stormy seas, one wave higher than the next. All her past knowledge and experiences were completely submerged at this moment without a trace!
Her worldview had collapsed!
The higher and mightier she was before, the more thoroughly she was smashed to pieces now!
Chi Li felt as if all the strength had been drained from her body, and she suddenly slumped to the ground...
Lu Benwei couldn't be bothered to say more and just casually pointed out.
"This is the truth of the world, believe it or not."
"If you still think the Demon Race is so amazing, then keep dreaming. If you figure it out, this scumbag can give you a chance."
Chi Li's heart trembled upon hearing this, her entire body enveloped by immense pressure.
Quietly gazing at the Totem Lord who was hiding beneath his foot, her pride felt as if it were being roasted by crimson flames. Every moment felt incredibly painful. Recalling those words in her mind, she was even more conflicted, and her state of mind began to waver.
Tightly clenching her jade-like hands with difficulty, she pondered for several breaths before finally gritting her teeth, standing up, and then falling to her knees in prostration.
"I... I am willing to seize this chance!"
"Please instruct me, my Lord. What price must I pay to seek a glimmer of survival in the future?!"
Lu Benwei only then nodded in satisfaction, smiling as he rested his chin in his hand.
"Mhm, catching on makes you a smart person. At least such a great figure and pretty face didn't go to waste."
"Come, dance the Ace of Spades for this young master first!"
Chi Li's eyes blanked for a moment, seemingly unable to understand the profound meaning behind the skeleton lord's words.
Fortunately, Lu Benwei was understanding. After some gentlemanly instruction, she suddenly saw the light. Not daring to hesitate any longer, Chi Li had to endure her shyness and start dancing. She was full of infinite charm and coquettishness, completely different from her previous icy demeanor, yet it had a unique appeal of its own.
Lu Benwei lay on the lounge chair, admiring her dance moves. Holding a wine glass in his hand, his smile grew even wider.
"Hahaha."
"Don't stop, keep dancing!"
For a time, this small world was filled with boundless joy. The austere days of standing guard, which should have been bitter and solitary, unexpectedly became extraordinarily entertaining, with the most beautiful scenery in the world right before his eyes.
Despite enjoying this fleeting pleasure, Lu Benwei seemed to have lost his usual wild abandon. His gaze gradually drifted toward the endless sea of stars, a glimmer of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
