Chapter 466 Woman?
At this moment, Li Xingyun's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile. He seemed to have seen through the Sky Fox King's thoughts long ago. He then unceremoniously pulled Li Mei into his arms and said with a grin, "Your legitimate husband is not a man, but your good sister!"
Li Mei hadn't anticipated Li Xingyun's sudden words. She was stunned for a moment, completely frozen. However, a split second later, she seemed to understand something. Her eyes widened like bells, her face a look of disbelief. Her gaze fixed on the Sky Fox King, as if she wanted to see through his exterior to his true gender.
This shocking news was like a bolt from the blue, blasting through Li Mei's ears. The Sky Fox King! The Sky Fox King! A woman! This was truly shocking, a truly huge secret!
"Hmph! So what! For the stability of the Sky Fox clan, I'm willing to sacrifice the happiness of one or two people!" Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, the Sky Fox King simply gave up and said without any concealment.
"Prince! You!" Li Mei's face was full of astonishment, her mouth slightly open, but no sound came out, as if she was so shocked by the scene before her that she had lost the ability to speak.
Her eyes widened as she stared at the Sky Fox King. She wanted to say something to express her surprise and confusion, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something, preventing her from uttering a single word.
Upon seeing this, the Sky Fox King raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint bitter smile, as if he had anticipated Li Mei's reaction.
She held her head high, chest puffed out, and with an air of courage and determination, she declared, "This time, I'm doomed. You can kill me or chop me up, as you please! But before you die, will you let me know your true identity?"
In the Sky Fox King's mind, she believed that Li Xingyun's revelation of the secret of his female body was simply a way to blackmail her and achieve some ulterior motive. She naturally disdained such despicable tactics, and she would never give in to them.
However, Li Xingyun was completely unaware of the Sky Fox King's intentions. He looked at the Sky Fox King's stubborn demeanor, a playful smile playing on his lips. He said softly, "Haha... there's no need to be so pessimistic. If I truly wanted to kill you, you'd probably have already perished. I'm sparing your life because I have something to discuss with you."
Upon hearing this, the Sky Fox King snorted coldly, unabashedly expressing her distrust of Li Xingyun. She abruptly turned her head away, no longer looking at Li Xingyun, as if completely uninterested in what he said.
"Haven't you always been curious about my identity?" Li Xingyun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. Then he turned his gaze to Li Mei and said softly, "In that case, just tell her."
Li Mei nodded in understanding. Her gaze then fell on the Sky Fox King. She spoke in a calm yet resolute tone, "This is the current crown prince of the Shenwu Empire, and the actual ruler of the Shenwu Empire today—King Qin Li Xingyun!"
Although Li Mei's voice was not loud, it resonated like thunder in the Sky Fox King's ears. Her eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief, as if she had heard the most absurd thing in the world.
"What? You are actually the prince of the Shenwu Empire?" The Sky Fox King's voice was trembling. She stared at Li Xingyun, as if trying to find a trace of a joke on his face.
However, Li Xingyun's smile remained calm. He nodded slowly and answered affirmatively, "Yes, I am the crown prince of the Shenwu Empire." Then, he paused for a moment, and continued, "Now, can we talk about cooperation?"
After saying that, Li Xingyun gave Li Mei a look, signaling her to prepare some tea. Seeing this, Li Mei immediately turned around and left, leaving Li Xingyun and the Sky Fox King sitting opposite each other in the room.
silence!
The whole scene fell into a suffocating silence, as if time had frozen at this moment.
The Sky Fox King's face was as gloomy as water, her beautiful eyes fixed on Li Xingyun, but she hesitated to speak. Her heart was like a turbulent sea, with various thoughts intertwined and difficult to sort out.
What on earth is going on? The Tiger King of the Western Xia Demon Kingdom, united with numerous royal palaces in rebellion, has already put the entire Western Xia Demon Kingdom on the brink of collapse. Now, the Crown Prince of the Shenwu Empire has suddenly appeared here. What mystery is hidden in this?
The Sky Fox King pondered to herself, she didn't believe Li Xingyun would come here for no reason. Based on her understanding of the human race, Li Xingyun definitely wouldn't be someone without a purpose. So, what exactly was his purpose in coming here?
The more the Sky Fox King thought about it, the more confusing things seemed to her, and she couldn't help but feel a headache. Faced with such a complicated situation, how should she deal with it?
"What do you want to cooperate on? Your Highness Prince Qin!" After hesitating for a moment, the Sky Fox King finally let out a long breath, calming herself down a little. Then she stared at Li Xingyun with her sharp eyes and asked.
Li Xingyun's lips curled up slightly, revealing a half-smile. He slowly said, "I heard that your Xixia Demon Kingdom is not at peace right now! It seems that the Tiger King is about to attack your Xixia Imperial Palace! And you, as the Sky Fox King, haven't sent any troops to reinforce. Are you planning to sit back and wait and see?"
The Sky Fox King's expression changed slightly after hearing Li Xingyun's words, but she quickly regained her composure. She snorted coldly and said, "Humph! So what? We demons are nominally comrades, but in reality, the gaps between our tribes are not so easily bridged. It doesn't matter much to my Sky Fox tribe who becomes emperor, so why should I send troops to help the royal dragon clan?"
Li Xingyun wasn't surprised by the Sky Fox King's answer. He chuckled and continued, "Well, that's right! However, I've heard that the Fierce Tiger King is a bloodthirsty fellow. Wherever he goes, no matter whether the race aids the royal family or not, they have to pay a heavy price!"
The Sky Fox King frowned slightly. It was obvious that she also knew what Li Xingyun was talking about, but she nodded without hesitation and said, "So what? This is their business and has nothing to do with my Sky Fox Clan."
"What? Are you really planning to wait until the Tiger King successfully usurps the throne before letting him deal with your Sky Fox Clan?" Li Xingyun raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looking at the Sky Fox King with a half-smile, as if she knew exactly what she was planning.
