Baby Serendipity: The Whole World Fell In Love With Me-Chapter 710 - 709: How Could You Fall in Love with the Past Me?

Chapter 710: Chapter 709: How Could You Fall in Love with the Past Me?

Lightning doesn’t choose its targets, striking anyone who comes within range.

Everyone was retreating, and the members of the Peacock Clan also wanted to retreat. However, their young clan leader insisted that they carry the unconscious and possibly dead female demons from the ground, and he himself picked up the Imperial Consort.

But Hei Ling and his followers did not want to let them leave; they ordered their archers to draw their bows and arrows, ready to shoot anyone who stepped out of the Palace’s bounds.

Such an action caused a trace of despair to appear on the face of the Peacock Clan leader, Kong Lan.

They might not be able to leave, likely to be scattered to the winds by the Tribulation Thunder.

"I’m sorry, everyone," Kong Lan said with a bitter smile as he held the Imperial Consort close, "It looks like we might have to die here together."

Upon hearing their clan leader speak like this, the Peacock Clan members, who already deeply respected Kong Lan, looked at each other and then showed smiles: "Clan Leader, if we are to die, let’s die together. Being able to follow you for so long, we’re not the type to cling to life out of fear of death."

"Exactly, we were prepared for this long ago. After all, if a rebellion isn’t successful, it’s an honorable death."

"For an entire tribe to perish together, that’s not dishonorable at all."

The words of his clansmen brought a bit of comfort to Kong Lan’s heart.

He held the Imperial Consort a bit tighter, his face pressed against hers, full of sorrow.

Kong Lan was younger than the Imperial Consort. Back when she was in the Peacock Clan, she was considered the foremost beauty of the clan. As a child, he had received her care, and as he grew up, he developed a hidden affection for her.

He had initially planned to confess his love to her once he came of age, but before he could do so, he learned that she was offered to the Demon Emperor to become his consort.

The woman he loved was about to become an imperial consort; if he told her of his feelings, it would only put her in a difficult position.

To avoid causing any additional trouble, Kong Lan kept his affection hidden in his heart, silently hoping that the Imperial Consort would find happiness. But how could his hopes ever come true? The Peacock Clan leaders didn’t limit themselves to just one partner, let alone the Imperial Consort’s man was the emperor of the entire Demon Clan!

The Emperor’s Harem was filled with countless beauties.

Soon enough, the Imperial Consort fell out of the Emperor’s favor.

Luckily, she was already pregnant at the time and managed to give birth to the young prince smoothly. She avoided fighting for attention in the Harem and directly aligned herself with the Empress, which allowed her to safely give birth to the prince.

When demons marry, the child inherits the appearance of the parent with the stronger demon power. The young prince that the Imperial Consort bore was a little fox, identical to the Demon Emperor as a child. It was also for this reason that she, who had not yet risen to the rank of noble consort, was able to become a favorite in the Harem overnight.

The child was the heir, and keeping face for the child’s sake, the Demon Emperor’s affection for the Imperial Consort increased.

But who could have imagined that this very affection would become a death warrant for the Imperial Consort’s child?

The Empress and the eldest prince, ambitious and seeking to overthrow the current regime, actually killed all of the Demon Emperor’s children and poisoned the women of the Harem to leave the Demon Emperor heirless.

The Imperial Consort was the first to be targeted. Even though she stood with the Empress’s faction and declared her support only for the rise of the eldest prince, her child was still murdered by the Empress, and she herself was poisoned.

The death of the child left the mother’s heart in tatters.

For many years, the Imperial Consort kept a low profile until the truth emerged. She laid the evidence before the Demon Emperor and overthrew the Empress in one fell swoop.

At that time, Kong Lan was still unaware that the Imperial Consort was infertile and had come to despise the Demon Emperor due to these events. He simply thought that with the Empress’s death, the woman he loved might receive better things, like ascending to the position of Empress herself.

He worked hard to become the clan leader of the Peacock Clan and to develop his clan into the Demon Emperor’s right and left hand, all to become the best support for the Imperial Consort. But to his surprise, the Imperial Consort turned down the Demon Emperor’s request to make her Empress, content to remain a noble consort, and refused to seek treatment for her body.

Later on, the Demon Emperor found the child of the third prince and brought him back to the Palace. He also found a Spiritual Child, whose natural gifts helped raise his power.

It was at this point that the Imperial Consort reached out to him, expressing her desire to revolt.

At that time, Kong Lan’s heart beat like a drum.

The demon girl he loved wanted to rebel, she no longer wished to be with the Demon Emperor, and that meant they might have the chance to stay together forever.

Now... the chance to be together forever had still come.

Kong Lan looked up at the Tribulation Clouds in the sky, his face revealing a smile of relief. As the Tribulation Thunder began to flicker, he whispered to the Imperial Noble Consort, "Sister Yunshang, Kong Lan has long adored you, and now I can finally embrace you openly and rightfully. It’s just a pity that such an opportunity will never come again."

When the Tribulation Thunder struck, even if they didn’t die, they would be gravely injured and then be killed by the people brought by Hei Ling.

"If we die together, it would also fulfill the love I have for you."

"Sister Yunshang, I love you. I loved you long ago when you were still in the tribe, and I still love you now."

Kong Lan stated his love word by word, tears glistening on his face.

Through his blurred, tear-filled eyes, the young tribal leader noticed that the lashes of the demon girl he loved were trembling slightly, obviously about to wake up. Not only that, the marks on her neck left by Lang Qian were gradually healed by the Demon Power until they disappeared.

What was going on?

Just now, Sister Yunshang had been completely still...

While Kong Lan was shocked, Yunshang had already opened her eyes.

She also felt that all the injuries in her body had healed, and her Demon Power was even stronger than before. Kong Yunshang had heard Kong Lan’s confession in her haziness, so after opening her eyes, she asked hoarsely, "Silly boy, how could you fall in love with the former me?"

The former her aspired to the Demon Emperor, being conferred as a consort by the Demon Emperor.

She harbored an inexplicable admiration for the strongest demons of the Demon Clan and took pride in marrying the Demon Emperor.

If it hadn’t been for what she later experienced in the Palace, how would her feelings slowly turn into hatred? It wasn’t the consorts of the Harem that were too vicious, causing her to lose her child and her heart of love, it was clearly the Demon Emperor’s doing.

How could she, who had also resorted to various schemes for favor at that time, be worthy of Kong Lan’s affection?

"How can I not?" Kong Lan said with the petulance of youth, "Sister Yunshang is the best Sister Yunshang, no matter what kind of Sister Yunshang you are, Kong Lan likes all of them."

Kong Lan once again expressed his sincerity.

After finishing this time, the tears in his eyes fell, dropping onto Yunshang’s face, "What a pity, what a pity that I will never be able to see Sister Yunshang again."

The Tribulation Thunder would strike, and they would both die.

"Silly boy." Yunshang flicked Kong Lan’s forehead, "Turn your head and look, look above the house."

The Tribulation Thunder had already struck! But it struck silently!!!

It streaked through the roof of the Palace, landing on Mianmian inside.

Mianmian was unharmed, not only running out of the Palace but also shouting loudly, "Imperial Noble Consort Sister, Mianmian did it, Mianmian has absorbed the Demon Pill of the wicked Demon Emperor, Mianmian feels really good now."

The Peacock Clan and other consorts present all showed expressions of shock.

Those demons, led by Lang Qian and far from the Palace, were gaping in disbelief.

Demons have excellent eyesight, yet now they were starting to doubt their own eyes. How could a child be running around carrying the Lightning Tribulation?
