After Admitting The Wrong God They Regret It - Chapter 99
After Yuanyuan listened to the other party’s report with a frown, he relaxed his brows and let out a sneer when he heard the conclusion.
He was not known for being a good person; he was accustomed to being sharp and sarcastic.
At this moment, his smile was filled with malice.
“They got what they deserved.”
Yuanyuan lowered his gaze, and just before the communication ended, he suddenly spoke, his voice calm and each word pronounced slowly.
“Let me confirm, you are Yu Di, right?”
Apart from Xiya, the demon clan’s command center had a communications department that would contact Yuanyuan to report important news.
The other end of the line paused upon hearing this.
“Ah? Oh… Yes, yes, Boss.”
“Good.”
The communication was abruptly cut off.
Yu Di, sitting in his position, took off his communication device and shivered.
The words just spoken seemed normal, but also very abnormal.
Why did it feel like the boss’s reaction wasn’t quite right?!
“This should be important news, right?”
He tentatively asked the person next to him.
“Well, it’s both important and not important. After all, even if all these people died, it has nothing to do with us, right? … Hey, what’s wrong with you? Why are you sweating?”

Yuanyuan had already returned to the bedside.
“The Brilliant Star Imperial Family has been overthrown, Yuanquan has disappeared, Yuanlin has been captured and is awaiting trial, likely facing the death penalty. During the overthrow, he killed quite a few people. Mo Jiu has also been imprisoned. The alliance has been completely disbanded, and now the responsibility for the alliance’s downfall falls on its former president.”
As for Moonlight being tortured to death piece by piece, Yuanyuan briefly mentioned it, not intending to elaborate.
It was too bloody and might affect his ancestral mood.
Xinghui also stared blankly for a moment.
“This has all turned around?”
Isn’t this a bit too fast and sudden?
The young man with black hair was wrapped in a blanket, curled up in the corner, his hair soft and slightly curled, damp with sweat sticking to his cheeks and forehead.
The tuft of hair on his head swayed slightly due to his confusion.
He leaned forward slightly, the smooth transition from his shoulder blades to his collarbone forming a beautiful triangular shape. The marks seemed to extend into the skin, faintly visible.
He seemed to be in a daze.
In other words,
He was still dazed and hadn’t snapped out of it.
Tsk.
Yuanyuan licked his lips.
He tasted the bloody smell of the small wounds Xinghui had bitten.
He was somewhat unable to control his excitement.
“There had been signs for a long time, starting with the violent suppression of dissenting voices on Brilliant Star, the appearance of a false deity, and before the storm ended, some legions of the alliance and imperial family declared independence. The joy of the storm’s end just extended the Kela clan’s rule for a few more days.”
Not just the violent suppression and the wrong choices, but also the consequences of these actions.
The deities not chosen by the Kela clan ended the storm and brought new life to the demon clan.
This made some people, used to looking down on the barren star systems from their high positions, start to feel uncomfortable. Rebellious sentiments surged.
“In the end, this group got nothing.”
Xinghui responded, tugging at the blanket, then looked at Yuanyuan.
The tall demon had just finished his activities.
When he received the call, he had temporarily wrapped another thin blanket around his waist.
Now, the blanket hung loosely, revealing his firm and smooth muscle lines, with sweat beads making him look extremely attractive. Below were his long, straight legs—he was tall and strong, but pleasing to the eye.
The demon before him was in his prime, restless like a peacock displaying its feathers, which made it hard to look away. Xinghui felt somewhat misled by the beauty.
Oh—where he had been pinched seemed to be redder than elsewhere.
Xinghui looked for a while, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
“Want to come over?”
Xinghui was exceptionally beautiful.
Yuanyuan was standing by the bed, admiring how his ancestor was dazed from being overwhelmed.
Suddenly hearing this, Xinghui lifted a corner of the blanket, tilting his head. From this angle, it looked like his head was resting on the blanket, invitingly.
His most secure behavior had not changed: curling up in the corner with the blanket or rolling around in the dark room.
And now, he was inviting him to join him.
To snuggle under the blanket, to curl up in the corner together.
Yuanyuan: …
Yuanyuan had already climbed into the bed.
Hesitating for even a second was disrespectful to himself.
He was too large, and once he got in, the blanket seemed a bit insufficient.
Xinghui, who had just softened his heart to make the invitation, now felt that Yuanyuan was taking up too much space. With him so close, it also felt a bit suffocating.
Xinghui glanced at Yuanyuan’s excitement and nonchalant attitude and couldn’t help but avert his gaze.
He wasn’t as shameless as Yuanyuan and still needed to improve and train himself!
*
Three months after the storm ended.
There were major upheavals in the higher star systems: Yuanlin was executed, the Kela clan’s rule was completely ended, and from then on, the Brilliant Star systems began to be governed by various prominent families.
Shortly after Yuanlin’s execution, a video of the false deity’s death was about to be released but was quietly intercepted and suppressed by the demon clan.
Yuanyuan naturally didn’t let Xinghui know about this.
Yuanlin’s twisted emotions didn’t deserve even a second of Xinghui’s attention.
Still, how could he have the audacity to say he liked him?
In the training ground, Yuanyuan was wearing a white tank top without any protective gear or weapons. The heat radiation had decreased to a habitable level over the past three months. He was sweating, his gaze relaxed, his eyebrows mischievous, wiping his sweat with a towel.
“Go practice more. Today, we’ll add a combination training.”
Yu Di, who had been personally trained by the boss for a long time, lay on the ground in despair.
What had he done to offend the boss?
Why did he always get picked for training?
He was just an ordinary intelligence officer leaning towards administrative work. He already had enough physical activity. Why did he need such a strong physique to listen to messages?
“Where is Xinghui?”
After wiping off his sweat, Yuanyuan looked at the person next to him.
“Lord Deity seems to still be at the experimental field. The next schedule is to go to the laboratory. Recently, another deity seems to have made some movement.”
The demon next to him spoke.
The storm was dispelled by two deities, and with their boss involved, this was something Xinghui personally mentioned.
So, all the demons were also very attentive to the shards of the deity left by Initial Moon. In these months, they tried various methods to nurture and awaken it.
Now, that golden shard occasionally showed a sleeping phantom.
It was probably about to awaken.
Yuanyuan nodded.
“Also, boss, just as you said, those deities who previously claimed to be useless have indeed regretted it. However, things are progressing faster than we imagined.”
The barren star systems had changed dramatically in these three months. Everything was improving, while the alliance was continuously declining. Without a spiritual pillar and with various negative emotions, everything was stagnating. The joy of the storm’s end turned into an empty feeling of uncertainty.
It was as if there was no direction or sense of happiness.
After all the noise had settled, they finally felt the sting in the details, realizing what they might have had and what they had lost.
The author’s note:
The ending is a bit slow; there should be one or two more chapters of the main text. For now, this is it. I’ll check during the day and night to see if I can finish it all at once.
Love to the readers who have followed along!
