Chapter 71: One-Day Tour at the Demon’s Palace.
“<Inadequate Companion’s S*x Life 一 It’s Never Good, Use Tianxiang’s Tips Now>”
“<Things You Must Know About Seduction Techniques>”
“<Tianxiang Guides You on How to Harmoniously Cultivate Together>”
“<Ten Times in One Night 一 Achieve It with Only Three Steps>”
It was a rare scene in the Demon Palace, with Xuanniao standing on the bookshelf like a well-behaved parrot, not making a sound. Countless demon generals were hidden in the corners, enthusiastically watching the spectacle and whispering to each other.
Shen Wanqing held the book, reciting the titles and chapter names as if she were a middle school student being called upon by the teacher. As she continued, her voice grew quieter.
Even after a long time had passed, Shen Wanqing still had a deep impression of this day.
She called it the “awkward punishment”.
A severe punishment comparable to the death penalty.
“Speak louder,” Xie Wuyan said, holding his arms and leaning against the bookshelf. He looked at Shen Wanqing, who was so embarrassed that she almost couldn’t breathe, without any sympathy. He seemed quite pleased.
“You lack emotion.”
Shen Wanqing choked up.
Especially when she looked up and saw so many demon generals from the Demon Palace, all crowding into the library to watch her punishment. They even went to great lengths to compress and deform their bodies just to sneak a peek. Every demon general had a happy smile on their faces, as if saying, “You also have your day too!”
Shen Wanqing felt this was unfair!
Why!
She is also a dignified palace master. How can her hard-earned reputation of fierceness become soft in front of him?
So, she decided to be firm.
“What’s wrong? The library was built by me, so I can read whatever I want!” Shen Wanqing put her hands on her hips, “I won’t read anymore!”
Silence…
Xuanniao stared wide-eyed.
She stood up!
The soft girl stood up!
Shen Wanqing showed a formidable momentum.
Xie Wuyan remained incredibly calm.
He looked at Shen Wanqing, who was bristling with anger, raised an eyebrow lightly, didn’t speak immediately, and just smiled at her like that for a while.
Then, he gently curled his lips and let out a disdainful and mocking laugh that seemed to pierce her soul.
“Heh.”
Then, he slowly said: “Is that so?”
Shen Wanqing was defeated in an instant, and her entire body slumped with no strength left, her head drooping in helplessness, followed by a surge of powerless fury in her heart.
… What’s that “heh” supposed to mean!
Can a distinguished Demon Lord like you only smile with ‘hehe’ and not ‘haha’?
But, obviously, she wouldn’t dare say it out loud: “Of course not, how could there be anyone audacious enough to speak to His Highness in such a manner? I can’t bear it, and yet His Highness isn’t angry! Truly magnanimous.”
Xuanniao acted as if he didn’t see it.
But it seemed like this wasn’t a bad thing.
Without Xie Wuyan, Shen Wanqing would not be like this. Every day, she would lose her temper in the palace, dragging people out for severe reprimands, and often punishing them to stand in the corner like a rooster on the wall1. Then, she would lead those demon generals to bully people everywhere, acting like a little tyrant, particularly arrogant.
Until no one dared to criticize her.
No one dared to bully her.
And now, she didn’t have to be like that anymore.
She could be like any ordinary girl, soft and coquettish, freely venting her emotions without worrying if she would survive tomorrow or if she could obtain what she wanted.
Someone was protecting this unruly little tyrant.
Xuanniao felt deeply moved.
Then he looked at his own bald tail feathers.
…How to deal with two demon lords?!?
After visiting the library, Xie Wuyan, led by a group of demon general to the next new scene 一 the Midnight Song Hall.
Upon entering the hall, the sound of gongs and drums was deafening.
Two robust demon cultivators dressed in matching outfits stood on a circular platform, vigorously beating the drums and shaking their bodies. Many lamp spirit beasts on the ceiling emitted colorful lights, swaying and illuminating the hall.
The sound waves were powerful, and the demons were pounding the drums with great enthusiasm, causing the ground to shake.
It was truly overwhelming.
Xie Wuyan fell silent and turned his head to question Shen Wanqing with a gaze that seemed to ask, “What on earth is this?”
Shen Wanqing felt suffocated.
The truth was that during her early days at the Demon Palace, she had significant emotional issues compounded by the interference of a system and brainwashing, which gave her severe headaches. To distract herself, she needed to constantly find things to do.
She thought about what people in the modern era did to vent their emotions?
They would go clubbing, sing at karaoke, or visit bars!
That’s when she had an idea 一 she created this Midnight Song Hall.
The demons had never seen anything like it before. After spending a few days inside, they immediately became addicted, forming queues to get in and even organizing dance competitions.
Facing Xie Wuyan’s questioning, Shen Wanqing explained earnestly, “Cultivating sentiments and cultivating interests. We should pay attention to the mental health of the demons and provide them with appropriate outlets for expression.”
“What are those drums and gongs on the stage for?”
“I call it a drum set.”
“What are the bottles filled with on that shelf over there?”
“That’s the bar counter.”
But there was no alcohol inside.
It was because previously, a group of demonic cultivators got drunk and caused a fight in the Midnight Song Hall, smashing the beautiful vase that Shen Wanqing had brought from the Tianyun Palace.
Since then, the Midnight Song Hall no longer served alcohol.
Xie Wuyan glanced around and saw a container with a brown liquid inside, the smell alone making him cringe.
Shen Wanqing introduced: “That’s regular milk tea!”
Another cup contained black liquid with bubbles floating on top.
Shen Wanqing: “Happy Water!”
There was also another cup filled with a jumble of miscellaneous ingredients, topped with an unknown white substance.
Shen Wanqing: “Taro bubble milk tea with coconut and milk foam, extra ice, and less sugar!!”
Silent, Xie Wuyan wondered, ‘How many surprises do you still have that I don’t know about?’
But soon, he realized there were too many things he didn’t know.
For instance, right in the center of the Midnight Song Hall, stood a massive, slender pillar.
Xie Wuyan gave Shen Wanqing a look.
This time, Shen Wanqing didn’t respond enthusiastically; she even wanted to slip away. However, Xie Wuyan swiftly grabbed her collar and pulled her back.
“What is that?”
Shen Wanqing covered her mouth and refused to speak, “Why do you want to know everything? People should keep some secrets between each other!”
Xie Wuyan thought it made sense, so he let go of Shen Wanqing and coldly glanced at the surrounding onlookers.
Clearly, these demon general didn’t have the same backbone.
Immediately, one of the demon general stepped forward voluntarily to answer “Our Palace Master calls it the steel pole, used for pole dancing! Your Highness, let me demonstrate it for you.”
So, a tall and robust demon general, about 1.8 meters tall, with a tough beard, began his pole dancing performance.
After the dance, applause resounded continuously.
Only Shen Wanqing felt like her heart turned to ashes, and Xie Wuyan fell into contemplation.
Xie Wuyan glanced at Shen Wanqing, then curled his lips and chuckled, giving a meaningful and intellectual comment: “Impressive.”
Shen Wanqing felt like she had experienced a social death: “Don’t look at me, it’s too embarrassing. Just scold me directly.”
Xie Wuyan smiled and reached out to rub her head, looking very gentle.
Then, the next moment, he bent down, looked into her eyes, and said with a playful smile, “You also know?”
Damn it.
Too ruthless and heartless!
Shen Wanqing decided to change tactics. The plan she just used in the library was clearly not working.
So, she prepared to employ the all-powerful tactic of acting cute and spoiled.
Shen Wanqing slowly squatted down, curling herself into a little dumpling, and started to coquettishly say: “I just wanted to liven up the place a bit. I thought that when you came back, it wouldn’t be so dull, so I came up with all these things.”
Xie Wuyan lowered his eyes and squatted down in front of her without saying a word.
Shen Wanqing felt wronged and pitiful as she said: “You still look so fierce and unhappy when you come back, and you treat me with such coldness! It’s too hurtful! Do you know how much it hurts me when you say those things? You don’t know, you only care about yourself…”
“Shen Wanqing,” Xie Wuyan called her.
Shen Wanqing looked at him with teary eyes.
The tactic of acting cute and spoiled never failed.
“When I was missing my memories, I remembered everything that happened.”
“…” Oops, she made a mistake.
“On the fourth day after leaving Chitong Pass, I tore your skirt, and you cried like this.”
“…”
“On the fifth day, I spilled the tea you handed me, and you cried like this.”
“…”
“On the fifth night, I didn’t cover myself with a blanket while sleeping, and you woke me up, crying like this, without changing a single line.”
She made a mistake.
Shen Wanqing immediately wiped away her tears, stood up with a blank expression, politely bowed to Xie Wuyan, and then made a gesture of “Please continue”: “Okay, let’s move on to the next destination.”
The next destination was the zoo.
As soon as they reached the entrance, the demon generals who were previously idling around them became serious. They released their spiritual powers and shielded themselves thoroughly, then huddled behind Xie Wuyan and Shen Wanqing, cautiously stepping inside.
Xie Wuyan frowned and glanced at them with confusion.
But soon, all the doubts in his mind were cleared up.
What’s in the zoo?
Shen Wanqing: “Look! Baby tigers! Baby birds! Baby snakes! Baby rabbits! Baby bears! And there are baby crocodiles too!”
Xie Wuyan took a look.
Underworld Tigers, Deep Abyss Rabbits, Flame Phoenixes, Azure Sky Snakes, Demon-slaying White Bears, and even the Demon-devouring Giant Crocodiles.
What an extraordinary zoo.
However, Shen Wanqing was very happy, as if she had her own group of pets. She enthusiastically rushed over and embraced these demonic creatures, who were listed among the “Top Ten Evil Beasts” in the Cultivating Spirit Book.
Xie Wuyan pinched his brow bone and glanced back at the Demon Generals behind him.
The Demon Generals looked fearful and dared not make a sound, hiding outside the zoo.
Xie Wuyan pursed his lips, took a step forward, and stood behind her.
However, these demons did not want to see Shen Wanqing, especially with the terrifying aura emanating from Xie Wuyan beside her.
They were terrified and resisted.
How come there are two devils coming back!
The Underworld Tiger King is the most promising one among them.
When Shen Wanqing scratched its chin and called it ‘meow meow’, it couldn’t bear such humiliation anymore.
“Get lost, I am not a cat.”
Shen Wanqing hadn’t reacted yet, but Xie Wuyan narrowed his eyes slightly, clenched his fist, and a sword appeared in the palm of his hand from the void. He lightly touched the scabbard with his thumb, revealing a bit of sharpness.
A strong sword aura silenced the previously noisy zoo instantly. All the fierce beasts immediately prostrated on the ground, too afraid to lift their heads under the suppression of that powerful sword aura.
Even the demon generals who were peeking at the door were all affected by this force. Their protective shields shattered, and they hurriedly mobilized their spiritual power to resist, then looked at Xie Wuyan’s back in fear.
The Underworld Tiger King was almost scared to death.
When it raised its head and saw Xie Wuyan’s eyes filled with killing intent, it was so frightened that it didn’t dare to move.
Come on!
It’s just a little tiger!
Just because it refuses to meow, do you have to scare it with the Solitary Light Sword!
The demon generals were also dumbfounded.
Too arrogant!
That’s the Solitary Light Sword! The sword that everyone wants to get! The Solitary Light Sword that the Heavenly Dao Palace fights over!
And you use this kind of divine sword in situations like this?
Only Shen Wanqing remained completely unaware.
Because that sword aura intentionally avoided her, as if it formed a protective shield around her, not even touching a single strand of her hair.
Shen Wanqing was even teasing the tiger, “I bet those demon generals didn’t groom you, right? Maomao?”
Underworld Tiger: “Meow…”
Xie Wuyan put away his sword with satisfaction.
The Demon Generals suddenly realized.
Xie Wuyan was indeed the strongest combat force.
However, their own Palace Master was at the top of the food chain.
No matter how the Palace Master acted, His Highness always seemed to show disdain, but in reality, he would never get angry.
Of course.
Except for the next scenic spot.
Because there is the legendary harem.
The author has something to say: Send some sweetness to the public!
