Chapter 46

Wu Ye held the bounty order in his hand, and his head was buzzing. If he remembered correctly, his son was only three years old!

How could his young son kidnap someone else's bride?

Wu Ye was confused, and Qing Heng frowned when he saw the wanted poster.

"Resolve the wanted warrant."

Qing Heng assigned Wu Ye a task: "I'm going to chase Qiao Qiao."

"OK."

Wu Ye responded and took the wanted warrant to find the person who issued the reward.

At the same time, Ming Qiao, who was flying in the sky, was still hiding from being chased.

As soon as he ran away with the bride, someone started chasing them.

It was Miss Azhu’s first time to ride on a cloud, and unexpectedly she adapted very well. She held the soft little body tightly in her arms, fearing that she would drop the little cub.

Mingqiao was held by her and turned his head to look behind him.

"Sister, so many people are chasing us!"

The people chasing behind me may not have any clouds to sit on, but they can also fly!

Ming Qiao rubbed his eyes, his little face frozen with fear.

"Also, there are people with wings!"

Among the people chasing them, there were several with wings!

Ming Qiao had never seen a person with wings before. No, he realized, this was not a person—

This is a monster!

In addition to humans, there are also demons in the Cangxuan Continent.

However, there are not many monsters, and most of them live in the form of humans, so Ming Qiao has never seen the true appearance of a monster.

Ah Zhu also looked back.

Her pretty face turned pale, and all the memories from this period of time slowly revived in her mind.

She remembered the Chen family and her mother.

I also remembered where this place was.

This is the demon market.

She came here in a daze one night, and after coming here, she saw the monster with her own eyes.

There is a monster beside Fu Qu.

She figured it all out. Fu Qu was dead, but Fu Qu might have trapped her here through his monster friends or his family connections.

Fu Qu wanted to have a ghost marriage with her.

"Duoduo, hide."

Ah Zhu's face was pale and her voice was trembling.

But she told Little Cloud in a trembling voice: "I know where there is a hiding place."

Fu Qu often took her out for outings, and she also liked to find some secluded places outside to concentrate on writing poetry.

So, there are many secret places here, and she knows them all.

There are also places where even monsters cannot be found.

She once accidentally entered a place and stayed there for a day and a night. If she hadn't come out on her own, Fu Qu would never have been able to find her.

When she came back, Fu Qu rushed over and hugged her in ecstasy.

Behind Fu Qu, he has many friends, and these friends have been accompanying Fu Qu to find her.

But they found none.

Ah Zhu thought about how excited and happy Fu Qu was when he hugged her. She was moved and felt that Fu Qu cared about her too much.

Now that I think about it, maybe Fu Qu was still afraid that she would go home.

Thinking of the place that Fu Qu and his monster friends couldn't find, Ah Zhu raised her hand and pointed at the little cloud firmly.

The little cloud followed her instructions and rushed over.

Mingqiao, who was hugged by Ah Zhu, was watching the little clouds flying. Suddenly, he felt something wet on his face.

It was as if raindrops were falling on his face.

He stretched out his little hand and touched it, then raised his head in a daze.

It's not raining.

But Miss Azhu cried.

Miss Ah Zhu's eyes were red and she was crying. She hugged the soft little body in her arms tighter as if seeking comfort.

"Ming Qiao, are all men bad?"

Her father and brother who tacitly allowed her to die, Fu Qu who deceived her, and Fu Qu's friends who followed her.

They all harbored ill will towards her.

Ming Qiao: “…”

Mingqiao knew that Miss Azhu was hurt, but he grabbed Duoduo and reminded her in a weak voice: "Qiaoqiao is a boy."

He, he is not a bad guy.

Miss Azhu looked down at him with tears in her eyes.

The two, one big and one small, looked at each other. Ah Zhu wiped her tears and choked up, "You are still young, you are different from those bad men."

After this catastrophe, Ah Zhu seems to think that all men are bastards.

Not only did she not trust men, she also had no illusions about love.

She had always thought that her acquaintance, friendship, and love with Fu Qu were wonderful, but now it seemed that it was just a beauty calculated by someone else.

"Qiao Qiao, you are so beautiful, you will definitely be good when you grow up. By then, maybe many people will fall in love with you."

"Remember, never lie to a girl's feelings."

Ah Zhu prepared for the rainy day and gave Ming Qiao a shot of prevention in advance. She told Ming Qiao not to let down girls in the future.

Ming Qiao listened to her words and said in a daze: "Qiao Qiao doesn't lie."

He never lies to boys or girls.

As for the feeling that Sister Zhu was talking about, he thought about it seriously in his little head and felt that this feeling should be love.

In order to prevent Sister Azhu from being too negative, Mingqiao held her fingers and spoke to her seriously in a baby voice about his father and mother.

"My dad loves mom, and mom loves dad, too."

"Mom loves Dad, and she gave birth to Qiao Qiao. He passed away after Qiao Qiao was born, and Dad said Mom didn't regret it."

"Even though mom is not around, daddy only loves mom."

Just like the stepmother in the storybooks, his father never thought of finding one for him!

Ah Zhu listened to Ming Qiao telling the love story of his parents, and as she listened, her emotions finally calmed down.

At this time, the little cloud also flew to the place designated by Azhu.

Just a second before flying in, Little Cloud instinctively sensed a little bit of trouble.

It wanted to turn around, but then it thought about the pursuers behind it...

never mind.

The little cloud dived over and thought that if there was really something wrong with this place, the worst that could happen was that it would just fly out.

Little Yunduo had a good idea, but she didn't know that the place they flew into, which Ah Zhu had also been to once, was not so easy to get in and out of.

Last time, Ah Zhu was able to come out safe and sound simply because of good luck.

"There's no one behind."

Ming Qiao, who flew in following Duoduo, looked back on purpose.

All the people who were chasing them before are now gone!

These people did not pursue any further.

Ming Qiao was very happy. He patted Xiao Yunduo and asked Xiao Yunduo to put him and Azhu down.

“It’s so beautiful here.”

Stepping on the green grass, Mingqiao looked around.

There are flowers, grass and water here, which looks poetic and picturesque.

“It is very beautiful.”

Ah Zhu also liked the scenery here very much. She walked to the water and washed her face, washing away all the traces of tears and makeup on her face.

Ming Qiao looked at her clean face and thought it looked beautiful like this.

"Let's hide here for a while, and when my brother comes, we'll go home."

Ming Qiao sat by the water, picked up the small magic weapon, and contacted You Qing.

"Brother! Where are you?"

Ming Qiao called out to You Qing, but after calling out several times, there was no response from the small magic weapon.

"Hey, is it broken?"

This was the first time this happened. Ming Qiao held the small magic weapon tightly and shook it hard.

He looked around for a long time, but no sound came from the small magic weapon.

There are only two possibilities to explain this situation.

First, my brother is in trouble and it is not convenient to talk.

Second, small magical instruments cannot be used in this place.

"Duoduo, I'm a little worried about my brother."

Mingqiao held the small magic weapon in his hand, put his arm around Xiaopang's arm, turned his face and talked to Duoduo.

Duoduo rubbed him soothingly.

The two of them didn't stay by the water for too long. Mingqiao didn't make it to the wedding banquet and was still hungry.

There was no food in his storage ring, and he had finished all the medicine he had prepared.

With nothing to eat and no medicine to take, Mingqiao's stomach was growling.

Ah Zhu heard his stomach growling.

"Come on, let's go find something to eat."

Ah Zhu stood up, stood in front of Ming Qiao, and asked him, "Do you want me to carry you?"

"No, I'm fat."

Ah Zhu had a frail figure, and Ming Qiao felt it would be tiring to hold her.

"You're not fat."

When Ah Zhu heard him say that he was fat, she couldn't help but curl her eyes and reached out to poke his cheek: "You have too much milk fat."

Maybe Wu Ye’s baby-raising skills are really good, or maybe Ming Qiao’s development is really a little slow, the baby fat on his body hasn’t been reduced at all.

"Come, I'll hold you."

This time, Ah Zhu didn't ask him any more questions, but just picked him up.

Mingqiao sat in her arms, still nervous.

"Not very heavy."

Ah Zhu smiled and said, "It's soft and very comfortable to hug."

Seeing Ah Zhu holding him and walking two steps without even taking a breath, Ming Qiao felt relieved and put his arms around her.

"Let's go find something to eat and take a rest. We'll go out after we're rested."

"Um!"

The big and the small had a very good plan. With this beautiful plan in mind, they wandered around for a long time but didn't find any wild fruits.

Mingqiao's stomach growled even louder.

Ah Zhu: “…”

Azhudun stood there, also lost in thought.

How come there is no food growing in such a beautiful place with lush vegetation?

Just when Mingqiao and Azhu were both hungry, the little cloud flew out to look for food and made a discovery because of its wide vision.

"Baby, there's food, you don't have to go hungry anymore!"

The little cloud let Azhu and Mingqiao sit on it, and it took the opportunity to take them flying.

Under the guidance of Little Cloud, they indeed saw a place full of magical herbs and flowers.

In addition to magical herbs and flowers, there are also rabbits!

Mingqiao had eaten the rabbit roasted by his father, it was so delicious.

"Duoduo, catch the rabbit!"

"Okay!"

The little cloud flew very fast and covered the rabbit, allowing Mingqiao to catch it.

The rabbit was caught, but Mingqiao didn't dare to kill it.

Ah Zhu had never killed a rabbit before, but looking at the hungry Ming Qiao, she bit her lip and took the rabbit.

"I'll go kill him, you wait here."

The smell in this area is particularly pleasant. Ah Zhu is an ordinary person, but she feels relaxed and happy just breathing here.

Ming Qiao, who stayed behind, sat obediently on the ground and watched her back disappear.

"Duoduo, it smells so good here."

Ming Qiao also discovered that the atmosphere here was particularly different.

He had been hungry for half a day and hadn't taken his medicine, so he was already feeling unwell.

Just now, when Ah Zhu held him, he only coughed a few times, and the other discomforts were being suppressed.

Now that he has arrived in this area, his discomfort has been alleviated a lot.

"It's spiritual energy, very rich spiritual energy."

Xiao Yunduo comes from a good family, so she is very sensitive to spiritual energy.

It circled above Ming Qiao's head and reminded him, "Hurry, sit down and meditate."

Ming Qiao hesitated: "I can't practice."

If he continued to practice, he would be struck by lightning at any time.

"I heard from Qing Heng that you will have a thunder tribulation only when you advance."

Little Cloud was still very concerned about his baby's condition. He said confidently, "You just started to refine your Qi, how could you possibly break through again!"

Ming Qiao thought about it and nodded.

Duoduo is right!

He had heard his fellow practitioners discuss that each stage of cultivation would become increasingly difficult.

He was able to refine Qi within a day, probably because refining Qi was relatively simple!

Although Ming Qiao had proudly boasted in front of his mother that he had five spiritual roots and was a very powerful baby, deep down, he did not think that he was really a genius baby.

At least in his heart, his father and mother are the most powerful, especially his mother!

"Well, I'll practice for a while."

Ming Qiao, who had figured it out, no longer had any concerns. He sat down with his chubby legs crossed and started meditating with his eyes closed.

He was practicing, while Duoduo was identifying the spiritual herbs and flowers around him.

"Hmm, it smells like it's edible."

Duoduo smelled and tried to "taste" them.

Although it is a spiritual cloud, it also has ways to enter the body of top-quality spiritual herbs and flowers.

Anything that was not poisonous was shoveled down by Little Cloud.

It placed all the spiritual herbs and flowers it had shoveled down in front of Ming Qiao. These spiritual herbs were all good things and very nutritious when eaten!

Even if you don’t want to eat it, you can pack it up and take it away!

Little Yunduo was shoveling the ground, grunting, wishing he could contract all the magical herbs and flowers for his baby.

It was shoveling with a grunt, and Mingqiao was also practicing with full concentration.

The next stage he needs to break through is to build the foundation.

After building the foundation, an inner elixir will be born in his body.

No one noticed, not even Duoduo noticed——

At this moment, Ming Qiao's cultivation speed was as amazing as last time.

No, because of the rich spiritual energy around him, his speed was even more terrifying than last time.

In this world, the rich spiritual energy seemed to have recognized its master, scrambling to drill into Ming Qiao's little body.

There was too much spiritual energy, and Ming Qiao's face soon turned red.

Little Yunduo was shoveling the ground and didn't notice his red little face for a while.

I don’t know how much time passed.

Ah Zhu came back with the roasted rabbit meat. She held up a piece of untouched rabbit meat, and her pretty face was a little blackened by the roasting.

"Qiao Qiao, I——"

Before Ah Zhu could finish her words, she suddenly saw a tall figure leaping towards her.

Her voice suddenly changed: "Duoduo! There's someone!"

Little Cloud: “!”

The little cloud was startled and without even looking at where the person was, it rushed over to tackle Ming Qiao.

But he didn't shovel.

He was picked up by someone.

The other party not only picked him up, but also brought Ming Qiao in.

Ming Qiao is in a state of cultivation and hasn't woken up yet.

He was lifted up by someone, and his whole body was hanging limply.

Little Cloud looked extremely angry.

It transformed itself into various forms, trying to break free from the opponent's grasp.

But none of them work.

The other party’s cultivation is too high!

The little cloud couldn't break free and it started raining heavily.

Ah Zhu looked at the strange man holding Xiao Yunduo in his left hand and Mingqiao in his right hand. Although she was timid, she did not back down.

"You, let go!"

Ah Zhu rushed over and tried to snatch Ming Qiao from him.

She rushed over with great momentum, but after taking only two steps, her legs went weak and she fell down after meeting the man's eyes which were as red as an animal.

Then, Ah Zhu became drowsy and gradually lost consciousness.

Both the big and the small were limp, and the only one awake was little Yunduo.

Little Cloud was controlled by someone, and wanted to use the support of her own baby to scare the person away, but the other party couldn't understand what she was saying.

In the little cloud's impotent rage, it was finally locked up in a small dark room.

Little Yunduo was locked up, and after a long while, Ming Qiao finally slowly opened his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, he realized something was wrong.

His hands and feet were all tied up. Not only him, Ah Zhu was also tied up.

His little hands and feet were tied up with thick ropes, while Ah Zhu's were tied up with cloth strips.

The people who kidnapped them are still next to them.

He is talking to Ah Zhu.

"Have you thought about it?"

His voice wasn't very nice and his tone sounded weird.

Ah Zhu's dirty face, which was tied with cloth strips, has become clean. She looks fearful on her pretty face, and when she looks at the man, she is both afraid and wants to hide.

"Don't you see? I'm wearing a wedding dress, and you, you still want to--"

"You're not married."

The man noticed Mingqiao's little face when he woke up, but he ignored Mingqiao for the time being.

He just stared at Ah Zhu's face and repeated what he had just said.

"Stay here and be my wife, and I can spare your life."

Ah Zhu: "You, you are forcing me!"

Ming Qiao: “???”

As soon as Ming Qiao woke up, he heard these words. It took him a few seconds to react before he realized that Sister Azhu was being targeted by someone again!

Ah Zhu didn't want to agree at all, but she couldn't impulsively refuse directly.

Although she was angry, she was still rational.

"Isn't it too fast for you to let me marry you when I first meet you?"

"The last time you came to me, if I hadn't wanted to let you go, do you think you could have left?"

The man said casually: "You left and came back again. This time, I'll keep you. What's the problem?"

The man said, and suddenly asked: "You are reluctant, are you not satisfied with my face?"

Ah Zhu: “?”

Ah Zhu didn't understand why he suddenly asked this, but nodded hesitantly.

If an excuse is given to you for free, don't waste it.

"Wait a moment."

When the man saw her nod, he stood up and walked to the wall.

Ming Qiao looked in the direction the man was heading, and after just one glance, his eyes widened.

On the huge wall, there are pictures of... faces hanging all over.

The man stood in front of the face, selecting it for a few seconds, then reached out and peeled off his current face and replaced it with a new one.

"Is this look okay?"

After he changed his face, he turned around and asked Ah Zhu.

Ah Zhu: “…”

Ah Zhu's lips trembled and she couldn't utter a word.

Ming Qiao, who witnessed everything, turned pale and the next second, lowered his head and vomited.

He didn't eat anything, so all he vomited was acid.

After spitting out a few mouthfuls of acid, he started coughing.

His coughs became more and more severe, and Ah Zhu finally came back to her senses amid his coughs.

The man continued to ask: "Are you not satisfied with this face?"

He changed it again.

When the third photo came, Ah Zhu's face turned pale and she said, "I, I do."

"I am willing to be your wife. Please let me and my brother go first. My brother is coughing!"

If Mingqiao continues coughing like this, Ah Zhu is worried that something might happen to him.

Ah Zhu's concession made the man very satisfied.

With a slight wave of his hand, all the ropes and strips of cloth on Ah Zhu and Ming Qiao were untied.

After Ah Zhu was freed, she immediately held Ming Qiao in her arms.

"Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao, how are you?"

Ah Zhu patted Ming Qiao on the back, trying to calm him down.

But Ming Qiao spat out several mouthfuls of blood before his coughing stopped a little.

When the man saw him vomiting blood, he realized that he was a sickly person.

Originally, he saw that the child absorbed spiritual energy at an astonishing speed, and wanted to kill him and take his skin after carefully examining the child's body.

Now it seems that there is no need for him to kill the child, as the child will not live long.

In this case, there is no need to rush.

"I'm going to decorate the wedding room, you guys wait here."

The man liked Ah Zhu very much. He had peeled many skins before, and he was usually not in a hurry to peel the skins that he liked.

Now that Ah Zhu came in her wedding dress, he also planned to try and see if getting married had any special flavor.

After informing Ah Zhu that she was waiting to get married, the man's eyes fell on Ming Qiao again.

Mingqiao was still wearing Xitongzi's clothes.

The man seemed to find the dress festive, and he ordered, "You preside over the ceremony."

When Ming Qiao heard that they were going to get married again, he raised his little hand, wiped his mouth, and then agreed with a serious expression.

"good!"

He said, "I will officiate at your wedding."

So far, none of the weddings he has attended have gone smoothly.

Therefore, he must be present at this wedding!

"Sister Zhu, don't be afraid."

Seeing the man walking away, Ming Qiao held Ah Zhu's hand and whispered to her, "I'm like a jinx! Whenever I go to watch someone get married, it won't work out."

Ah Zhu: “?”

Yeah?

Ming Qiao was not idle either while preparing the arrangement of the scary thing that could peel off people's skin.

He ate all the magical herbs and flowers he saw.

Not only that, he also closed his eyes and meditated for a while.

He can't rely on his unlucky physique alone!

He also wants to be struck by lightning!

As long as lightning strikes, my father, mother and brother might see the noise and come looking for me.

Time passes by every second.

The man decorated the entire world in red.

Ah Zhu was wearing a wedding dress. In one day, she married a ghost and a monster. She was so exhausted.

In this life, she probably doesn't want to kiss for the third time.

Ming Qiao, who was interrupted again, felt that he was just a little bit away.

He held Ah Zhu's hand and walked with her to the place where they were going to get married.

Ah Zhu pinched his chubby little hand, signaling him not to be afraid.

Isn’t it just getting married?

It doesn't matter if she gets married as long as she can keep herself and Mingqiao.

After comforting Ming Qiao, she walked to the man and stood side by side with him.

"My name is Huajiu."

Only at this point did the man say his name.

And if Qingheng was here, he would definitely be familiar with this name, because this is the big monster he is looking for.

"Draw nine."

Ah Zhu read his name, her tone sounded calm, she said softly: "Let's get married, let Qiao Qiao watch the ceremony."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two adults bowed in the hall. Ming Qiao, who was watching the ceremony, sat down, closed his eyes, and concentrated on practicing.

He didn't want Ah Zhu to finish the worship.

With this belief, Ming Qiao swept the spiritual energy of this world almost like a tornado.

Hua Jiu, who had not yet finished his wedding ceremony, felt his spiritual energy rapidly draining away, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

"wrong."

He vaguely recognized something and turned to look at Ming Qiao.

The next second, Ming Qiao, who still had her eyes closed, was stripped of her clothes.

When Hua Jiu saw the small flower on Ming Qiao's butt, he couldn't believe it and said, "Xie, Xie's child."

How is that possible?

Besides Xie Qingheng and Xie Qingyun, how come there is another one in the Xie family?

Hua Jiu was still in disbelief, but the cub in his hand had already made a breakthrough to the last point.

“Boom boom—”

There was thunder rolling in the clouds, gathering, ready to break out.

Such a huge commotion not only shocked Huajiu, but also made Qingheng, who had already found someone nearby, change his expression.

Qingheng’s speed in finding the painting monster was already fast enough.

But he really didn't expect that his cub would accidentally fly directly into the painting monster's lair.

At this moment, Qingheng didn't care whether the painting was of a monster or not.

He just wanted to get to his cub before the thunder struck.

"Jojo!"

Qing Heng rushed to the wedding scene which was covered in red as quickly as possible.

When he arrived, he saw the naked cub and also saw the painted monster holding the cub.

"Trying to skin my child."

Qing Heng, who was always calm and composed, now had a cold look in his eyes filled with murderous intent. Every word he said was as cold as ice: "I want you to pay for his life!"

Hua Jiu: “???”

Fuck, he just took off her clothes to see her plump and tender buttocks, he didn't even think about peeling off her skin!

The author has something to say:

Painting Demon: The Immortal King is trying to scam me!

The baby prayed devoutly: Don’t strike me!
