Demon King – Chapter 919 – The Little Hellion Gets Completely Shut Down
While Eiru went off to track Yunxing, Yuki was agonizing over how to extract some information from the purple-haired little girl in front of him, who clearly didn’t look like someone easy to deal with.
Embarrassing as it was to admit, growing up, Yuki had hardly interacted with girls at all. Don’t be fooled by how he’d been stuck together with a certain loli since middle school until now. The only reason he’d been able to get along with her so naturally back then was because that freebie loli’s mindset was practically no different from a boy’s.
As for the other girls he was somewhat close to, like Yunyue, that was only because they occasionally talked about Eiru. Even with someone like Su Qianchen, who had a relatively straightforward personality and was easier to talk to, Yuki rarely exchanged many words.
After he started dating Eiru, he had even less interaction with other girls. After all, he had a wife now. If anything got misunderstood, it would be awkward. Even though a certain loli didn’t care about such things at all.
Looking at this purple-haired… loli? No, more like a girl somewhere between a young maiden and a loli. She seemed fairly familiar with Yunxing. Even though neither he nor Eiru had heard about her from Yunyue, maybe he could pry out some inside information?
While he was still thinking about how to start the conversation, he had barely approached when she turned around and noticed him. The moment she saw his face clearly, the irritation and anger on her expression vanished instantly, replaced with a mischievous, childlike excitement.
“Whoa! I know you, I know you! You’re that senior from third year. What’s your name again… um? Right! Li Yuki!”
Before Yuki could even say anything, Yu Qiu let out an excited squeal and rushed over, circling him while looking him up and down.
‘Wow wow wow, even though I lost little gorilla, I hit the jackpot instead! It’s the honest top-student senior! Why is he here? Hehe, this is gonna be fun!’
Yu Qiu’s favorite pastime was teasing these well-behaved honor students who cared deeply about their public image. And this was a third-year senior too. With all that academic pressure, teasing him would definitely be extra entertaining.

“Wait, senior, you’ve got silver hair too. Blue eyes… oh! I get it! You’re actually Eiru and Eiya’s older brother, right?”
The moment those words came out, Yuki’s heart skipped a beat. What kind of precision landmine stepping was this? The thing he hated most was being dragged into sibling comparisons.
‘But she knows Lu Brat and little Eiya? Is she from our school too? Why don’t I remember her?’
Before school started, Yuki had helped teachers handle some orientation tasks. He couldn’t say he recognized every single new student, but someone with such obvious features? There was no way he would have zero impression.
‘In his memory, the only freshman with unusual hair color had been a blue-haired girl. Forget it. More importantly, I need to clarify that Lu Brat and I are not siblings.’
Although he was extremely uncomfortable being called siblings, Yuki wouldn’t get angry at a girl who clearly didn’t know the situation. The problem was, this mischievous girl’s rapid-fire chatter gave him no opening to explain.
“Senior Eiru is in third year, and you’re in third year too. Got it. You’re twins! Though you don’t really look alike. Then why does Eiya look so much like senior?”
“And your surnames are different. Reconstituted family? Same father different mothers? Same mother different fathers? Waaah, senior, senior! Hurry up and introduce me to Senior Eiru!”
After this wave of information bombardment, Yuki suddenly had no idea where to begin clearing up her wild misunderstandings. But as the little vinegar king in the Demon Lord’s words, he quickly sniffed out something alarming.

‘What? This little menace is interested in my wife?’
“Oh… today’s actually the first time we’ve met. Seems like you don’t really have a reason to introduce your sister to me.”
Lowering her head in thought for a moment, Yu Qiu seemed to realize that was indeed inappropriate.
But did anyone really think she would just give up there? Of course not. After thinking, she arrived at an even more outrageous conclusion.
“How about this! Senior, be my boyfriend! Then introducing my future sister-in-law to her little sister would be totally reasonable. Hehe! No problem then!”
“Huh? Huh?!”
Yu Qiu suddenly grabbed his wrists with both hands. Yuki was completely dumbfounded, utterly unable to understand what kind of hyperactive logic circuit this person was running on.
“Don’t let my appearance fool you. I’m very confident in my looks! It sounds like bragging, but I really am publicly acknowledged as a beauty, you know.”
It wasn’t really bragging either. Yu Qiu genuinely had a level of beauty most girls couldn’t compare to. The fact that she dyed her hair every few days and could pull off every single color was already something ordinary people couldn’t manage.
But there was no way Yuki would feel any flutter in a situation like this. After all, he had a one-of-a-kind loli best friend wife in this world. Sure, you’re a beauty, but you still can’t compare to my Lu Brat!

From another angle, although Yu Qiu wore a wicked grin, there was a trace of seriousness in her tone. In this situation, it was genuinely hard to tell whether she was just pulling a prank or if she had actually taken a liking to the silver-haired boy in front of her.
That was precisely what made Yu Qiu so troublesome. Her unreadable temperament and attitude made it impossible to determine whether she was joking or being sincere.
If you couldn’t grasp her stance, it was easy to fall into her trap and be led around by the nose. Of course, it was also possible she meant both?
“Senior’s pretty handsome too. Totally my type. If we date, hehe… I can drag Senior Eiru out to hang every day! And I could tease Eiya too, hehe, hehe. I wonder what expression she’d make?”
‘Is this… a confession? No, something’s off. Very off. We just met today, didn’t we?’
Faced with such a situation for the first time, Yuki, who was already bad at dealing with girls, became even more flustered.
But being flustered didn’t mean he was stupid. After quickly adjusting himself, he knew exactly what he had to do.
‘I have a wife. I need to reject her cleanly and decisively.’
Yuki had no hesitation. The problem was that Yu Qiu’s relentless rapid-fire attacks left him no room to respond. Moreover, he could smell the heavy scent of scheming. Without finding a proper countermeasure, whatever he did would probably just play into her hands.

“Senior, we’re a handsome guy and a pretty girl together, what’s so ba—gah?!”
Seeing Yuki’s awkwardness, Yu Qiu was about to continue her mischief offensive when her voice suddenly cut off.
The reason was a small hand shaped like a claw, pressed right against her throat.
Her body trembled as she stood frozen in place, not daring to move. Yu Qiu had no doubt that this delicate little hand possessed the power to pierce straight through her throat. Along with the intense killing intent pressing down on her entire body, her voice was completely locked in her throat.
“So, can you let go of his hand now, Miss Beauty? Or do you perhaps enjoy the sensation of having your throat torn open by my claws? Hehe, that actually sounds rather nice too.”
The black-haired loli who had appeared out of nowhere giggled while uttering terrifying words. The black little stars in her eyes added a hint of sinister charm.
But in Yu Qiu’s eyes, that cute face wearing a wicked smile looked like a death sentence.
Trembling, she released Yuki’s hands and took several steps back, pressing her back tightly against the wall behind her. Staring at the girl standing beside Yuki, her face was filled with indescribable fear.
