The Demon Lord Relied on His Imagination to Get Together with the Protagonist. - Chapter 92

Chapter 92

The first thing Shi Zhihua decided upon waking up the next day was to drop the pretense and stop acting.

Compared to Tong Siqing’s “care,” she was much more willing to be troubled by the North Sea’s issues.

When dawn broke, her back ached so much she couldn’t get out of bed.

Every movement felt like she was about to fall apart.

“Your Excellency, allow this subordinate to fetch a doctor to examine you,” Su Rong, who came with Qing Lin to greet the Demon Lord today, suggested bringing a doctor upon seeing their Demon Lord in this state. “Logically, it shouldn’t hurt this much. Perhaps… this back pain is a persistent problem?”

After all, how could their powerful Demon Lord be tormented by a mere backache to the point of being unable to leave the bed?

There must be some underlying reason.

“No need,” Shi Zhihua said. “I’ll be fine after a rest.”

She felt embarrassed, so she didn’t want to call a doctor.

How could the esteemed Demon Lord be tormented with a continuous backache by Tong Siqing?

Moreover, Sheng Wen was still in the North Sea. If he knew about this, he would surely ridicule her, the Demon Lord.

Out of some inexplicable sense of competitiveness, the Demon Lord gritted her teeth and refused to let anyone call a doctor.

“Then let’s find some medical books. After I teach myself, I’ll massage Zhihua’s acupoints.” Tong Siqing felt guilty towards Zhihua. Actually, it wasn’t her fault; it was her own lack of restraint that accidentally strained the other party’s back. Next time, she must definitely place a pillow under her.

Shi Zhihua thought it was feasible: “Good. Go find some medical books.”

Tong Siqing: “Mhm, mhm.”

“Don’t borrow any improper books,” Shi Zhihua, considering the customs of the North Sea, was very worried that Tong Siqing, with her poor comprehension, might accidentally borrow some vulgar novel, which would definitely ruin her waist. She thought for a moment and instructed again, “Su Rong, you are more careful and reliable. You take her to find someone, and don’t leak any information.”

Su Rong accepted the order: “Yes.”

Tong Siqing gently laid Zhihua flat, so she could lie down more comfortably.

After settling her, Tong Siqing took in the sight of the other party’s beauty. Zhihua was indeed an unprecedented beauty. Lying there, she was a peerless sight, with fair skin, a beautiful face, a slender waist, long legs, and stunning features.

Tong Siqing swallowed.

Shi Zhihua: “…”

If she weren’t currently in too much pain to move, she would have certainly kicked this lustful rabbit away.

No restraint!

Shi Zhihua grumbled internally—Some people look pure and righteous, but in reality, when they go wild, even I can’t bear it. She is truly from Xianning. She has an innocent expression during the day, and a completely different one when the lights are out.

While she was grumbling about Tong Siqing, Tong Siqing was also thinking about her.

Tong Siqing looked at the Demon Lord on the couch, thinking, Ah, Zhihua is, after all, the foremost beauty of the Demon Realm. She appears flighty and indulgent, but she is actually deeply affectionate and pure.

She clearly hadn’t done much last night, yet Zhihua cried out in back pain with just a slight touch.

Tong Siqing felt wronged. She hadn’t even truly tasted pleasure yet.

Shi Zhihua’s face darkened when she saw her expression. She immediately cast a spell to dismiss everyone.

“Don’t come back until you find the medical books,” Shi Zhihua ordered. “If you can’t cure this Lord’s back, you’ll sleep outside the door with Ji Hui tonight.”

Tong Siqing pouted: “… Okay.”

Su Rong and Qing Lin exchanged glances, an unsettling thought crossing their minds—Could it be that their Demon Lord didn’t have the upper hand?

This is their supreme Demon Lord! Could she actually be defeated by Tong Siqing?

Qing Lin’s eyes widened a bit: “… No way?”

Su Rong looked at the situation with detachment: “Why not?”

She had seen so many absurd things. This small scene was not surprising enough.

In the past, she might have been surprised along with Qing Lin, but not anymore.

Because after the two immortal artifacts emerged in the Scarlet Heavens Realm last time, her “luring the tiger away from the mountain” lie inexplicably came true, and she was rewarded with many things by the Demon Lord afterward. From that day on, she realized that life was unpredictable, and nothing was too surprising.

Qing Lin also recalled the incident at Yuyin Palace last time, where the Demon Lord hid in her study and refused to see people. At the time, she thought the Demon Lord was hiding from someone. Later, upon reflection, the Demon Lord was probably engaging in a romantic game with Tong Siqing, deliberately playing a game of “catch me if you can.”

Qing Lin: “…”

Wait, why wasn’t the Demon Lord the one catching, but the one being ‘caught’?

Qing Lin recalled her Demon Lord’s indescribable expression again, still not quite believing it—Has the Demon Lord been conquered?

The other party was full of worries, even sending Siqing out to sleep, and she was the one with the back pain.

Seriously?

“Impossible, I don’t believe it,” Qing Lin shook her head. “This is our supreme Demon Lord. The Demon Lord would never bow down to anyone.”

Su Rong sighed: “Perhaps it’s for love? She might just dote on Immortal Saint Siqing. Although the Demon Lord is arrogant, it’s not strange for her to do anything for the sake of the love in her heart.”

Qing Lin: “That’s true.”

Su Rong casually asked: “Do you think the Demon Lord is right? To be willing to give up her pride for the love in her heart.”

Qing Lin had no idea. She said: “I cannot understand our Demon Lord’s actions, but I am certain that I will never become like this in the future. I would vehemently disagree if someone were to overpower me.”

Su Rong nodded, evaluating objectively: “That’s right. With your strong-willed nature, you wouldn’t submit to anyone just for a little fondness.”

Qing Lin wholeheartedly agreed with Su Rong’s view. She thought, Su Rong is truly my confidante. She can understand and read my mind.

Su Rong bid her farewell: “Then I’ll go with Immortal Saint Siqing to find a doctor. I won’t walk with you.”

Qing Lin smiled at her: “Okay.”

Su Rong and Tong Siqing disguised themselves and found a renowned doctor in the North Sea.

The North Sea’s famous doctor was a short, white-bearded old man, possibly a transformed spirit. He was only about half the height of a person and had to sit on a high armchair to examine patients.

The doctor asked: “Who is the patient?”

Tong Siqing spoke: “It’s my beloved. Her back has been hurting terribly lately, to the point where she can’t move. Because the pain is so severe, she couldn’t come to see you. She could only ask me to seek medical advice.”

Doctor: “Beloved? Back pain?”

Su Rong covered her forehead on the side, realizing that the situation was getting a little out of control.

“Either her body is too weak to endure it, or she hasn’t done it enough to get used to it,” the doctor, seeing Tong Siqing dressed as a local North Sea resident, preemptively assumed she was also a North Sea native. He asked, “Your beloved isn’t from the North Sea, is she?”

Tong Siqing’s eyes lit up: “You are a miracle doctor! She really isn’t.”

The doctor instantly understood—the North Sea is known for its indulgence, so outsiders naturally can’t handle it. This was due to not adapting to the local customs yet. If she got used to it, it would be fine.

The doctor said: “It’s nothing serious. I’ll prescribe some tonics. She just needs to drink them.”

“Alright,” Tong Siqing sincerely took out a pile of gleaming treasures. “My beloved also said she wants me to bring back some medical books so I can massage her acupoints and things.”

The white-bearded old man’s eyes immediately lit up upon seeing the lavish display of wealth. He quickly agreed: “That’s easy to arrange.”

Su Rong reminded the doctor from the side: “Please provide some proper medical books.”

She was truly worried about this North Sea doctor. The local customs in the North Sea were seriously unreliable. Even the doctor’s bookshelf was filled with suggestive books. If Tong Siqing accidentally took them, their Demon Lord’s back would surely never heal.

The doctor patted his chest: “My books are all ‘orthodox.’ They are absolutely genuine. Every North Sea native who reads them praises them. One impotent patient even has three children now.”

Su Rong: ???

Why does that sound so improper?

Just as she was about to frown, she saw the doctor smile faintly. He stroked his beard and said meaningfully: “I am a person of free spirit. Please don’t take offense. This is just my style of speaking.”

Well, miracle doctors are often eccentric, Su Rong thought. She could somewhat understand.

Su Rong: “Then we trouble the miracle doctor.”

The white-bearded old man smiled: “No trouble at all, no trouble at all.”

He instructed someone to bring out a large pile of “medical books,” then personally inscribed some words on the books without outer covers, making them sound very medically profound.

Now Su Rong was relieved.

She had completed the Demon Lord’s task and didn’t have to worry about the Demon Lord’s back hurting anymore. This was a renowned miracle doctor of the North Sea; his remedies almost always cured the ailment.

As they were leaving, the miracle doctor also instructed Tong Siqing: “Practice according to the medical books. If she feels uncomfortable, then it means it’s working.”

Tong Siqing was puzzled: “Why? Shouldn’t she stop if she feels uncomfortable?”

The miracle doctor stroked his long beard profoundly, shaking his head slightly while sitting in the armchair: “You don’t understand this, do you? Outsiders must go through a process of transformation to accept the North Sea’s customs. She will initially refuse and struggle. But once she takes my medicine and practices the classics in the medical books, all her ailments will disappear.”

Tong Siqing genuinely asked: “If she’s in pain, I won’t be able to help feeling heartbroken.”

The miracle doctor thought for a moment and suggested: “Then you should also drink the prescription I wrote.”

Tong Siqing: “Me too? But my back doesn’t hurt.”

“Trust my medical skills. Even if it doesn’t cure you…” The doctor mused, “It won’t cause any problems. They are all top-grade tonics anyway. It won’t be a waste for anyone to consume them.”

Su Rong felt that something was seriously off about this.

She harbored doubts and questioned the miracle doctor’s position.

Although the other party admitted that his speaking style was like this, his method of treating people was truly too casual, feeling more like assigning random tasks.

What did he mean by “it won’t be a waste for anyone to consume them”?

Did they look like they were short on money?

Su Rong felt this was unacceptable.

She stopped and insisted: “No, if you write a prescription, you must do your best. We are not short on money. We don’t need two people to share one person’s dosage.”

The doctor quietly looked at Tong Siqing, thought for a moment, and said: “That works too. You don’t look very healthy either. You should also take some supplements.”

Tong Siqing obediently nodded: “Okay, I’ll listen to the doctor.”

In the end.

Su Rong and Tong Siqing returned laden with goods, both hands full of medicine bags.

This was two people’s dosage.

If the doctor hadn’t finally said that any more would be too much of a supplement, the two of them might have brought even more back.

Shi Zhihua’s face showed shock when she opened the door: “Why is there so much?”

Tong Siqing simply relayed the doctor’s words to her: “The miracle doctor said that my physique is not very good either. I’m too weak and frail. I need to take some supplements so as not to be embarrassing. So, this is two people’s dosage.”

Shi Zhihua pressed her temples: “I don’t want to take medicine. Did you bring the medical books? Just a massage will do. No need for such a fuss.”

Tong Siqing: “I brought them, but the doctor said that they must be combined to help you overcome the difficulty sooner.”

Shi Zhihua: ???

What difficulty?
