Chapter 581: Trading Son for Wife

If you get a good rest at night, you will be more energetic when you travel the next day.

Chi Jin is just like that.

When Ruan Wei said that she was going to split up, Chi Jin still strongly objected as expected: "I don't agree."

Ruan Wei didn't look at her, and stabbed him: "It's no use disagreeing."

Chi Jin's face was full of disapproval, but he didn't dare to openly resist Ruan Wei's tyranny. He could only say, "Senior Sister, let's go together."

He covered his chest, his eyes wide open:

"I'm so nervous walking alone, Senior Sister, aren't you worried about me?"

Ruan Wei: “…”

"You told me to use this skill on your mother, why are you using it on me?"

Chi Jin pursed her lips and insisted that she was really scared.

Ruan Wei said calmly: "Chi Jin, we agreed on this."

"The three rules we agreed on back then were that if I told you to run, you had to run, and if I told you to do anything, you had to do it. Why, now that you've slept with me, it doesn't count?"

Chi Jin's face turned pale, and for a long time, he couldn't find any words to refute.

After all, he would never go back on his word to Ruan Wei.

Ruan Wei finalized the matter: "Okay, I have made up my mind on this matter, no need to say more."

tyrant.

This was undoubtedly a great tyrant that was beyond doubt and absolutely beyond discussion. Sometimes Chi Jin really wondered how he was rated as the top tyrant by the people of Tongzhou in his previous life.

Tongzhou still has too little experience, unlike him, who has seen a lot since he was young.

Chi Jin couldn't beat Ruan Wei in the end because her arms couldn't beat her thighs.

They split into two groups.

Ruan Wei carried Fu He, who had been fed sleeping powder again, on his back, while Chi Jin held a stack of "ghostly talismans" drawn by Ruan Wei.

The two did their best to optimize the imperfections of the plan.

They set off at noon.

Chi Jin lit the talisman and teleported out of the city gate. Naturally, the burning of the talisman could not escape the eyes of so many demons in Yu Qunqing City, and soon caused quite a stir.

Chaos at the city gate.

Ruan Wei disguised herself as an ordinary demon cultivator. This time she tried extra hard, and her whole face was covered in mud like a devil crawling out of hell. Her body was also curled up, and she looked a bit thin and hunched.

Of course, she also put makeup on Fu He, making her look exactly like herself after the disguise.

Ruan Wei casually placed the floating straw on his shoulders, letting it swing left and right above his head, and then walked to the city gate in a swagger.

The demon cultivators guarding the city looked around.

Ruan Wei, still in a hoarse voice, asked sinisterly, "Hehehehe... What's going on today? Is there something interesting to watch?!"

The demon cultivator glanced at her twice.

This woman looked nothing like the spiritual woman in the portrait. The demon cultivator looked up again, and when he confirmed that the rag doll-like thing on the woman's shoulder also had an ugly face, he cursed:

"Go, go, go, get out of here! Who do you think you are? How dare a puppeteer ask questions?! This is a fun show for you to watch!"

Ruan Wei left in disappointment.

Not far away, the demon cultivator could still hear her mumbling: "...What happened to the puppet? Did the puppet eat your food and use your water?"

Demon cultivator: "Hey? What the hell are you talking about!"

The hunched figure trembled violently and ran away at a swift speed.

The demon cultivator spat in hatred: "Damn it! You're lucky you ran fast!!"

The companion guarding the gate looked over and casually advised, "Alright, alright, why are you getting mad at a puppeteer? It's not easy for someone like them, born with disabilities who have neither strength nor magical energy, to survive with just a skill."

The demon cultivator rolled his eyes: "Tian Can shouldn't have come out and embarrassed himself! We checked people all night yesterday, and today there are still so many people asking questions. If you don't annoy me, I will be!"

“…”

The naive guys guarding the city gate were in a big fight.

Ruan Wei, on the other hand, just ran away. She grabbed Fu He and put him under her arm, and started a thousands-kilometer training journey with light skills.

Before deciding on a way to leave the city, Chi Jin brought up the idea of ​​puppeteer, a profession not very popular among the demons.

The demons advocate hard-hitting force. They are naturally strong and have always been proud of their physique. Those who are born weak begin to create puppets in order to make a living or protect themselves. Generally speaking, they are despised by ordinary demons.

It was not very convenient for Ruan Wei to pretend to have any relationship with Fu He, after all, Fu He was asleep, and the city gates also began to search for all items that could be hidden in people.

Since it doesn't work in the dark, put people in the light.

Chi Jin thought of the puppeteer.

Ruan Wei very boldly accepted his suggestion. After all, according to Ruan Wei's original idea, she was going to play a poor old grandmother whose granddaughter was seriously ill and in a coma and had to seek medical treatment everywhere.

Chi Jin: "..."

It was a close call, I almost became a great-grandson.

-

Working day and night under the stars.

Ruan Wei had no way to use spiritual energy.

Yu Qunqing is at least in the fusion stage, and maybe he has already quietly reached the tribulation stage. If Ruan Wei uses spiritual energy, Yu Qunqing will be able to sense it instantly.

Elixirs, talismans, or magic weapons—anything that might leak a trace of spiritual energy cannot be used.

Same as Xiao Xuantong.

Ruan Wei could only rely on her own legs.

Chi Jin used talismans as if they were free, he was just blatantly tempting people.

Being in the dark, Ruan Wei must not reveal his whereabouts.

Chi Jin was very familiar with the terrain of the Demon Realm. After all, he had been in charge of it for so many years. In addition, he moved very quickly. Whenever he exploded the talisman, he would move away. Even if Yu Qunqing chased after him, he could not see any trace of him.

The first two days.

Ruan Wei can still maintain contact with Chao Jian and Chi Jin.

The third day.

Chi Jin began to lose contact intermittently.

Because Yu Qunqing finally caught a glimpse of Chi Jin's face at the end of the two-day chase.

When he found that there was no one around Chi Jin, Yu Qunqing just looked at Chi Jin coldly, then casually pointed at the two fastest fusion-stage demon cultivators to continue chasing Chi Jin, but he turned around and left.

Yu Qunqing said, "Bastard."

"I don't have time to play these cat and mouse games with you."

He tore through the space, not even wanting to listen to Chi Jin's curses.

Chi Jin smiled when she talked about this in her mind.

Ruan Wei felt nervous at the time. She didn't think Chi Jin wanted to laugh. No one could laugh when being completely ignored by their lifelong enemy.

Chi Jin has always regarded killing Yu Qunqing as a memorial to comfort himself.

But Yu Qunqing always looked down on him.

This is really a head-spinning thing. If Qi Baiji, the peacock, were to come to this situation, he would definitely turn around and rush forward to fight the other person to the ground!

Fortunately, Chi Jin remained calm.

Ruan Wei felt very fortunate that he remained calm.

Are you calm?

…

Day 4.

Ruan Wei had already completed two-thirds of the return journey. She was not very familiar with the Demonic Realm, so she would occasionally take the wrong path. Sometimes, while walking, she would feel a tingling sensation on her back, as if someone's spiritual consciousness had inadvertently swept over her.

Be faster and more careful.

Day 5.

Chi Jin completely lost contact.

Ruan Wei put Fu He back to sleep after he woke up and was still struggling to go back. She no longer had the energy to fool Fu He, so she could only lift her numb legs and walk towards Tongzhou and Penglai.

Day 6.

Chao Jian received Ruan Wei, who had turned from Xuemei Niang into a dirty bag, and Fu He, who had slept for six days in a row, at the sealed area at the border.

I have been running around for many days, relying solely on my legs.

The girl's face was obviously tired, and her eyes were not as clear as before. Chao Jian supported her, but before he could say anything, he heard Ruan Wei's hoarse voice ask:

“…Is he back?”

Chao Jian's eyelashes trembled violently.

Ruan Wei, who was staring at him, certainly didn't miss it. She pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and asked again: "You didn't come back, right?"

There was no more questioning tone.

Just certainty.

Ever since Chi Jin started to occasionally lose contact with her, Ruan Wei had been fully prepared mentally.

She knows.

There is a high probability that Chi Jin will not come back.

The sound of the wind in my ears gradually calmed down, and the voice of the emperor penetrated through the vague noise, so dumb and helpless:

"Not back yet."

"Yu Qunqing brought him to the front of the battle line and challenged us. He said that this man was despicable and attacked the capital at night. My eldest brother and I went to rescue him, but Yu Qunqing wanted to kill Chi Jin. We had no other choice but to fight him to the death, but he put forward a condition. He wanted—"

"Exchanging sons for wives."
