The Demon City is located among the cloud peaks. Unlike its obscure name, it is bright and shining here, without any haze.
The place where Xu Shiqing lives is called Zuixianwu, in a remote corner of the Magic City.
In Zuixianwu, there are brilliant lights, ringing bells and crying cranes. Flowers and trees stand around like screens, and white flowers grow in patches, like snow falling on thousands of mountains.
Xie Chongyue was put down to the ground and turned around to look at Xu Shiqing. The other party turned his wrist and a light blue light flew into the distance.
"That's a communication talisman. I'll have someone send some clothes and food." Xu Shiqing paused, as if thinking: "Shall we go sit over there and talk first?"
He pointed to the inner room, where a pot of osmanthus was placed in a poetic and picturesque manner, reflecting the heavily hanging pearl curtains and the covered bridge and green lake outside. The willow branches bowed their heads, and a group of gorgeous carp passed by leisurely.
"I'm from City F. Where are you from?" Xu Shiqing asked.
(Hit! Time traveler!)
(Wait, wait, wait, is that all you have to say?)
"...G City." Xie Chongyue said, "Are you also from China?"
"Yes." Xu Shiqing smiled slightly. "I can sense a familiar aura from you... Well, there were many others who traveled through time before."
Xie Chongyue saw a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.
“But I don’t understand what they are saying.”
He complained: "I asked in English if someone could speak Chinese, but it turned out that they were half-familiar and we couldn't have a conversation at all."
"...How did you find them?" Xie Chongyue brought up the topic abruptly. He really didn't know how to continue the other party's conversation. After all, he knew nothing at the moment.
"I wasn't looking for him." Xu Shiqing shook his head. "I just happened to run into him while I was practicing. Cultivators have sharp eyes and ears. The sound of our voices is different from that of people in this world, so it was easy for them to spot us."
"But how did you get into Meteorite Terrace?"
He was still a little concerned: "There are mazes and concealment techniques set up there. Logically speaking, no cultivator in this world can break through them, let alone you who have no cultivation at all."
"Shouldn't you be in Yingtian City? Every time I find a traveler, they all spawn there."
His tone seemed to be saying, why don't you play by the rules?
(…Okay, so enthusiastic)
(Shocked, how could this mission target utter such information?)
(I really want to believe that he is a good person)
(Don’t do it, what if he’s pretending? I’m a PhD so I’ll believe it first)
"I don't know." Xie Chongyue vaguely saw that the immortal in front of him had grown puppy ears, but when he looked again, he still looked like an angel with icy skin and jade bones. "What about those time travelers?"
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Xie Chongyue felt that the atmosphere instantly became stagnant after he asked this question.
No, maybe not an illusion.
"...Some of them died, and some broke up with me." Xu Shiqing's tone was light, with a kind of calmness as if asking "So what?"
(……)
Xie Chongyue: “…”
"The graves are in the back mountain, built according to their own wills." Xu Shiqing looked at the expressions of the people in front of him and said, "I didn't kill them all. Most of them died of old age, and some were killed in ambushes."
“…I don’t kill people casually.”
This matter cannot be taken lightly, right?
Xie Chongyue almost couldn't hold back his expression: "You don't have to tell me."
This way I can trust you a little more.
"There was a Russian before," Xu Shiqing thought for a moment and said, "It's best to tell me about this kind of thing right from the start."
"Otherwise, misunderstandings will easily occur later. After all, I am a demon."
The devil.
The head.
Well.
(Oh my God, my little heart really can’t stand this ups and downs)
(Dead or alive, let's make it quick)
(If I were to make light of it, it would seem like demons aren't a big deal—but that's not the case! What's the concept of a demon in the world of cultivation?! Every minute I think of demonic cultivators who kill without blinking an eye and practice all kinds of evil ways!!)
(He also killed travelers...)
(Can you run...?)
(I originally thought it was much better than the other Chosen Ones. After all, the other Chosen Ones were either in the wilderness, or were caught by the natives at the beginning and then GG, or were killed while running away...)
(It’s not much better, everyone)
"Why kill them?" Xie Chongyue looked at the question in the golden barrage and asked, "Did they offend you?"
"No." Xu Shiqing looked outside the door, waved his hand, and said something.
Xie Chongyue guessed that should mean letting them in.
A group of little kids came jumping around pushing food and clothes in. The little wooden carts were rumbling, and the style looked familiar yet strange.
(pdd double-decker trolley, only 29.9, only 29.9)
(There is a sense of weirdness that travels through time and space)
(Is it possible that the ancients were not stupid?)
(The painting style is still a bit strange)
(Does this count as child labor?)
(What a cute child)
(Awooo, eat it in one bite!)
"Steamed fish, bear paws, desserts, and fruit." Xu Shiqing said briefly, "Without local products, I don't think you would dare to eat them."
Xie Chongyue stared at the bear paw on the table, thinking that he would not dare to eat the wild animals protected by this country.
(Red bear paw, slurp, haven't seen it in years)
(This fish! How is the fish made! Slurp)
(Wow, this scallop is wrong. I just saw it from the air. The devil doesn’t even come from the sea, so where did the scallop come from?)
(Everything is possible in Xiuxian)
(Honestly, could you please pull Captain Xie down and let me take over?)
(+1 It looks delicious)
