Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Chapter 1233 Your foundation is a bit thick.

Ye Bing then gracefully leaned back on the throne, adopting a more dignified posture, crossing her long legs and raising them to the other side. Her expression returned to its usual coldness and seriousness as she looked down at Yue You: "Yue You, how is your mental strength recovering?"

“I have fully recovered, Your Majesty,” Yueyou replied respectfully. “The spiritual energy orb you gave me was very effective, and I am now fine.”

Ye Bing said calmly, "Yes, it's good that you've recovered."

Thinking to himself, it seems that the spiritual energy orb that Ye Ge gave him is quite effective.

Well... to be honest, this guy is a bit bad, but sometimes he's actually pretty good.

At this moment, a fallen angel general stepped forward, his voice tinged with hesitation: "Your Majesty, I have heard that both the Gold Spirit Priest and the Earth Spirit Priest have perished... Is this true?"

"Of course it's true." Ye Bing said indifferently, as if she were talking about a trivial matter.

A suppressed gasp rose from below, and everyone's faces were filled with horror.

"Then, I heard that the chairman of the gene company is actually Sima Qing, a descendant of the Taotie clan who launched the war against the ferocious beasts a hundred years ago... Could this also be...?"

"That's true," Ye Bing said.

"..."

The faces of every minister in the hall were filled with disbelief.

Although they had already received some news when the Queen returned.

But hearing the Queen say it herself gives a completely different feeling.

At this moment, a message notification box suddenly popped up on the system's communication panel.

[System: The Chairman has requested a video call with you. Do you accept?]

'Sima Qing...'

Ye Bing's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

However, she had also anticipated this...

"Everyone except Yueyou, please leave now." She waved her hand lazily, her tone leaving no room for argument.

"This is!......"

Although the ministers had their doubts, they dared not say anything, bowed respectfully, and filed out of the hall.

Once only she and Yueyou remained in the hall, Ye Bing immediately connected to the communication.

The system projected an image, and Sima Qing's face immediately appeared on the screen.

"Is there something you need?" Ye Bing leaned back on the throne, her tone languid.

"What do you think?" Sima Qing's voice came through the communicator, cold and hard as iron. "Don't you think you should give me an explanation?"

"Explain what? I think you should give me an explanation." Ye Bing paused, then looked closely at Sima Qing on the screen: "Why is your face so pale today? Are you wearing foundation?"

Sima Qing: "......"

Ye Bing: "Your foundation is a bit too thick; you look like a dead person."

Sima Qing: "......"

"..." Karl, standing next to Sima Qing, thought to himself, "How come Ye Bing has only been undercover with Ye Ge for a few days, yet her speaking style has already become just as sharp and cunning..."

"I didn't expect that you usually hide so much from the board of directors. Even I didn't know that you had acquired the three ferocious beasts and gods, Qiongqi, Taotie, and Taowu."

Ye Bing crossed his arms, sneered, and said with a sarcastic tone, "You really set up a good scheme this time. You summoned the ghost god Qiongqi and directly used the Moon Pupil Illusion Technique on the entire Evil Netherworld Domain, offending all the powerful races of the myriad races."

"Now, all the company's branches in various places are being fiercely suppressed by the various nations of the myriad races, directly making the company the target of everyone's attacks. You're really something, Chairman."

"..."

Sima Qing said expressionlessly, "If you had done as I said back then, Ye Ge and Ao Sheng would be dead by now, and the company would have already controlled many powerful races among the myriad races."

"Hehehe..." Ye Bing laughed contemptuously: "You are really stupid."

"What did you say?"

"Let me tell you, in that situation, even if I had intervened, I wouldn't have been able to kill Ye Ge and Ao Sheng."

Ye Bing coldly said, "Ao Sheng's strength goes without saying, and Ye Ge also has many trump cards that you don't know about. Do you think you can kill him?"

“...Oh?” Sima Qing’s expression shifted.

“So of course I can’t listen to you, that would be suicide,” Ye Bing said.

"It seems that your use of your beauty to infiltrate his inner circle has indeed yielded some important intelligence," Sima Qing said.

"Hmph..." Ye Bing remained noncommittal.

"So what other trump cards does he have up his sleeve?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"..."

“I learned this from you,” Ye Bing said. “I know nothing about your plans, and you shouldn’t expect to get any information from me that I know.”

"..."

"I can only tell you that Night Song's trump cards are far more numerous and terrifying than you can imagine," Ye Bing said with a deliberately profound expression.

"...You need to understand that this is a crucial moment for the company, not a time for us to fight amongst ourselves," Sima Qing said.

"Don't say such things to me now." Ye Bing's eyes were sharp, and her voice was as cold as winter: "You know how powerful Qiongqi's illusion magic is. It can leave irreversible damage in the brain of the victim! You didn't tell me about your plan in advance, and you even included my people in your scheme. Now you're telling me not to fight among ourselves?"

Sima Qing: "......"

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking," Ye Bing said coldly. "This time, your illusion was broken by Ye Ge. If it hadn't been broken, would you still not have been able to undo the illusion you cast on Yue You? That way, you could control me at any time, right?"

Sima Qing's heart sank immediately.

Previously, he only thought that Ye Bing was still the same rich, naive, and innocent young lady from his previous life.

Surprisingly, she does have some sense.

It seems we really shouldn't underestimate her.

After all, in this life, she was a woman who ascended to the throne of the Fallen Angel Clan through her own strength... although she did so by brute force.

“I never thought that way.” Sima Qing certainly wouldn’t admit it: “This is a misunderstanding. These are critical times, concerning the company’s interests, so I hope you can put aside your resentment for now and share the information you’ve obtained with me.”

"Oh, that's impossible."

"..."

Sima Qing remained silent for a moment, his eyes gradually turning sinister.

However, he didn't think about it from any other angle; he simply assumed that Ye Bing was just being stubborn.

After all, in his eyes, Ye Bing and Ye Ge were enemies in their past lives. He would never have imagined that before Ye Bing spoke to him, this dignified fallen angel queen would be laughing like a lovesick young girl on her throne.
