"Ahem~ Um, did I come at the wrong time?"

While pretending to cough and suppressing a laugh, Yue Jiuling walked to the kitchen doorway and said, "At that time, I didn't actually mean to bother you, but you know, I really needed your help to get here..."

The two people who were 'disturbed' had two completely different reactions when they heard Yue Jiuling's voice. As soon as Qingcheng heard the noise, she immediately pushed Hongyan Shenjun away and looked at Yue Jiuling with a blush on her face.

Hongyan Divine Lord was indeed a little unhappy, tugging at Qingcheng's clothes, not wanting her to leave, and even glaring at Yue Jiuling.

Yue Jiuling felt a little guilty after being glared at, but she wasn't afraid of Hongyan Divine Lord. She just felt a bit embarrassed because she had interrupted his good time.

"Um, well, you guys should be free now, right? I need your help with something, could you do me a favor?"

Yue Jiuling looked at the 'young couple' in front of her with a smile.

Qingcheng pretended to tidy her clothes, but in reality, she was snatching them back from Hongyan Shenjun. She looked at Yue Jiuling with a normal expression and said, "Is there something you need from us? Just say it."

He then walked to the dining table in the kitchen and said to his 'partner,' "By the way, didn't the God say he was going to cook something delicious for me? Why don't you hurry up and make it?"

Although Hongyan Shenjun was not happy that his good time had been interrupted, he guessed that Yue Jiuling must have something to ask Qingcheng after seeing her appearance, so he had no choice but to go and make something delicious for the Demon King.

"Okay, you two chat, I'll go make you something delicious."

Seeing that Lord Hongyan had gone to the stove to cook, Yue Jiuling touched her nose and apologized rather half-heartedly, saying, "Tsk tsk, I've interrupted your good time, I'm so sorry~"

"Hmph, just say what you want to say, stop babbling and disturbing our meal."

Qingcheng glared at Yue Jiuling, then pointed at the doll Yue Jiuling was dragging and asked, "What is this? A toy?"

"Um, this is the puppet of the inner demon. You should recognize it, right?"

Yue Jiuling placed the doll on the dining table and then told Bai Xinyu about it. She said, "We are trying to remove the demonic energy from her body, but for some reason, we can't get rid of it at all."

"The puppet of the inner demon—it's obvious he wants to control the person who's been affected, but why would he do that?"

Qingcheng also took the doll to study it. He said, "No one can guess what the inner demon is thinking. One moment he can be very nice to you, but the next moment he can turn on you immediately. I really don't know what this guy is trying to do."

"I came to ask for your help because I couldn't guess it. By the way, would you like to come with me to the human realm to exorcise demonic energy?"

Yue Jiuling wanted to invite Qingcheng to the human realm: "Perhaps our cultivation is insufficient, so we cannot expel the demonic energy. My cultivation is also incomplete, and part of Yazi's power has been sealed."

"Ah, is that so? Well, that's not impossible. I'll go to the human world with you."

Qingcheng thought it would be worthwhile to help, especially since Bai Xinyu was from their demon realm, so she decided to go to the human realm with Yue Jiuling.

He had just agreed when Lord Hongyan stopped him, walking over with a bowl of fried meatballs and saying, "No, you can't leave the demon realm for a while. Have you forgotten? Qingcheng, you haven't finished arranging Qiyou's wedding yet~"

"Ah, right, I forgot. Because of Qiyou's wedding, I also have to help him deal with things within the wolf clan and establish new policies for them."

Qingcheng only then remembered that he hadn't finished his work. He thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you take Bai Xinyu back to our demon realm."

"Actually, I think Jiuling can handle this on his own."

Before Yue Jiuling could even agree, Hongyan Divine Lord said, "Didn't you say that puppet might actually be specifically targeting you? Do you want to try it yourself?"

"Should I try it myself?"

Hearing what Hongyan Shenjun said, Yue Jiuling suddenly thought of something, then opened her eyes wide and said, "You mean, maybe if I try, I can find out what the inner demon is trying to do, and also save Xinyu?"

"Here's what I'm thinking. You can decide for yourself."

Hongyan Divine Lord smiled at Yue Jiuling.
