Quick Transmigration: The Rise of a Favored Concubine

Chapter 168 Demon Lord × Flower Fairy 6

"Princess!" Peach Blossom entered and was startled. "Princess, what's wrong?"

Peony lay disheveled on the bed, her long hair soaked with sweat, a few strands clinging to her face.

The exposed half of her face was flushed, her eyes were slightly closed and somewhat swollen, as if she had been crying.

She heard the sound and struggled to wake up, but she had no strength.

"Princess," Peach Blossom said, her heart aching with worry, as she gently helped her up. "Princess, how are you?"

Peony was completely exhausted. The Prince of Yuan had been tormenting her for too long, and she could no longer bear it. She fainted.

Peach Blossom cried out in alarm: "Princess! Someone, the princess has fainted!"

Mo Yuan had intended to wait until she finished tidying up before going in to see her, but upon hearing the noise, he immediately went in with a cold face.

"Prince Yuan, Princess... Consort Dan has fainted." Peach Blossom was frantic and at a loss.

Mo Yuan stepped forward, put his arm around her, checked her breath, and coldly ordered, "Go and call the Demon Doctor over."

Upon hearing this from outside, Mo Ye replied, "Yes..."

Mo Yuan then personally carried Mudan to wash up, and she remained unconscious throughout the process.

When I finished washing up and carried her out, the Demon Doctor had already followed.

"Greetings, Prince Yuan..."

"Show her."

"Yes." The demonic physician reached out to take her pulse, and after a moment, his face showed surprise. Had the Prince of Yuan favored Consort Dan?

Mo Yuan frowned slightly, noticing his inscrutable expression: "How is it?"

"Your Majesty, Consort Dan is a spirit of the Flower Realm, whose true nature is pure and benevolent. You are the King of the Demon Realm, and you were engaged in spiritual cultivation with Consort Dan this time. Consort Dan could not withstand the demonic energy, which is why she fainted," the Demon Physician replied respectfully.

Peach Blossom couldn't help but ask, "The Flower Queen has already given Consort Dan the Pure Spirit Pearl, is that not allowed either?"

“This…King Yuan is the ruler of the Demon Realm, so ordinary things are naturally useless to him,” the Demon Physician said nervously.

"Is there any way?" Mo Yuan was unaware of this additional question.

"Pick the snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain, and use the demonic power of the Abyss King to refine the Demon-Suppressing Pill. Once Consort Dan takes it, she will naturally be unharmed," the demonic physician replied.

"Mo Ye, go and get it. There happens to be one in the Demon Palace." Mo Yuan then asked, "How long will it take?"

"It will take three days."

"Has Consort Dan been busy these past three days?"

"It's nothing, he just can't wake up."

"All of you, step back."

"Yes……"

Mo Ye quickly retrieved the snow lotus, and Mo Yuan personally went to refine it, while Tao Hua stayed behind to take care of Mu Dan.

Shadow Palace

Luo Li's face itched, and she couldn't help but want to reach out and scratch it.

“Your Majesty, you mustn’t scratch it,” Sang’er quickly advised. “If you scratch it raw, it won’t be good.”

Luo Li felt agitated: "Who wants to harm me?"

"Your Majesty, I have checked and there is nothing unusual," Sang'er said worriedly.

Luo Li checked immediately; her face had started itching for no apparent reason.

It started as just a little itchy, but now it's getting quite itchy.

"How is the Phantom Palace?" Luo Li asked again.

“Those flowers are all dead,” Sang’er replied. “Consort Dan went to Prince Yuan to complain, and she hasn’t returned yet.”

"What did you say?" Luo Li said coldly, "How long have you been gone?"

"They went yesterday and haven't come back yet," Sang'er said cautiously.

"What good would it do to complain? It's just that some little snakes ruined her flowers. How could the Prince of Yuan possibly stand up for her?"

Luo Li was also a little worried. He hadn't returned yet. What was he doing at Yuan Wang's place for so long?

"Let's go take a look." Luo Li stood up.

Sang'er trotted after her.

The Demon God's Palace was very quiet. Mo Ye stood guard outside the palace, Peach Blossom guarded the sleeping Peony, and Begonia was also summoned over, as it was not safe for her to stay in the Phantom Palace.

Wearing a veil, Luo Li arrived outside the Demon God's Temple.

"Greetings, Your Majesty," Mo Ye said respectfully.

"Is Prince Yuan busy? I have something I'd like to discuss with him," Luo Li said calmly.

Mo Ye replied, "Your Majesty, King Yuan is currently dealing with matters and has instructed that no one should disturb him."

Luo Li's expression changed: "You dare to stop me?"

"It was the order of the Prince of Yuan, and I dared not disobey," Mo Ye said in a deep voice.

Luo Li wanted to walk past him and go straight in, but Mo Ye stood there like a wooden stake, preventing her from entering.

Her face started to itch again, and Luo Li snorted coldly before turning and leaving.

Three days later

Mo Yuan fed the refined pills to Mudan, and she woke up shortly afterward.

"Demon Doctor, take a look at her," Mo Yuan ordered.

The demonic physician carefully examined her pulse again: "Your Highness, Consort Dan is fine now and will not faint again."

"Go down."

"Yes……"

Peony was still a little dazed, and her body was weak and limp. When she spoke, her voice was hoarse: "What... happened?"

Mo Yuan was unsure how to explain, so he simply said, "You couldn't withstand the demonic energy and fainted."

Peony paused for a moment before realizing what she meant, her cheeks gradually turning red: "Then...from now on..."

"The medicine has been taken, and this will not happen again."

The beauty was delicate and frail, and Mo Yuan's heart fluttered. That night, he had wanted to cherish her, but he couldn't control himself. Afterwards, he thought of making amends, but she fainted again.

"Mmm..." Peony murmured softly, too shy to look up at him.

"You should stay here and rest," Mo Yuan said, also feeling a bit unwell. "Go back when you feel better."

"Yes……"

Peony stayed here for more than half a month before returning to the Phantom Palace.

Their relationship with the Demon Abyss has grown even closer in recent days.

Mo Yuan no longer gave her the cold shoulder, and the two became closer. Mudan would tease him from time to time, only to be bullied in return. She would often try to get back at him, but she always failed and was bullied by Mo Yuan.

Phantom Palace

"001, what's your favorability rating?"

"Forty percent already..."

"How is the Queen?"

"Once the itching powder wore off and her face recovered, she only dared to go out wearing a veil."

Peony almost burst out laughing: "I understand."

"..."

Back at the Phantom Palace, Peony started planting flowers again, determined not to let anyone ruin them this time.

The front yard has been completely transformed, now filled with blooming flowers.

"Princess, I will definitely protect them well this time," Haitang promised.

Peony examined her hands and face. The ointment specially made by the Flower Realm had been used last time, and there were no visible traces. The recovery was going well.

"Put up a barrier around them, and all sorts of weird things won't be able to get in."

The peonies were heartbroken when their flowers were destroyed last time. You see, flowers are their lifeblood, so it's natural for them to be upset when they're ruined.

"Yes, princess."

"Princess, next month is the Demon Moon Festival. Will you be wearing the clothes of the Demon Palace or those of our Flower Realm?"

Mo Ye was the one who told them this. The Demon Moon Festival is the most important festival in their Demon Realm, and the Demon Queen and Demon Consort naturally have to participate.

This year's Demon Moon Festival was also organized by the Queen.

"Wear this one. After all, it's an important festival. Let's not cause discord between the two worlds over clothing."

Peony naturally doesn't want anything to happen in the Flower Realm, not even the slightest bit.

If Mo Yuan is willing to give up his idea, that would be the best outcome.

"Yes, Princess." Begonia and Peach Blossom continued to tend to the flowers that filled the courtyard.
