Chapter 157 Arriving in the Human World
Chen Yu brought Jiang Yi all the way to the human world without any obstacles. In order to hide their tracks, he specially chose a sparsely populated grove to stay.
Jiang Yi looked around and asked in confusion: "Are we in the human world? Shouldn't the human world be bustling with activity? Why does it look so much like the forest in the demon world?"
Shen Yu glanced at her and said, "Pretend first."
Ordinary people cannot see the demonic energy on him, but some people with Taoist skills can feel that he is unusual. If they meet people from some sects, they will be easily recognized.
In addition, it was difficult to catch the demon messenger with his original appearance, so Chen Yu specially chose a remote forest and disguised himself before going to find the demon messenger.
Jiang Yi also thought of this and did not ask any further questions.
Watching Shen Yu change his appearance in an instant, retracting the demonic energy around him and disguising himself as an ordinary man in the human world, his entire temperament was weakened by more than half.
She couldn't help but blink and kept staring at him.
After Shen Yu recovered, she saw Jiang Yi was still not moving and frowned: "Hurry up."
Jiang Yi was urged by him, but he was not in a hurry. After thinking about it, he transformed himself into a woman who was dressed similarly to Chen Yu.
At first glance, it looks like a couple's outfit.
Of course, there is also a bit of Jiang Yi's selfish motives mixed in.
Chen Yu didn't understand the concept of couple outfits in the modern world. He just felt that Jiang Yi's outfit was somewhat similar to his. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Jiang Yi watched him stare for a long time, but couldn't tell what he meant. His mood couldn't help but improve, and he took the lead and walked in front: "Why are you standing there? Let's go."
The two of them disguised themselves as men and women from ordinary families, neither attracting too much attention nor appearing shabby and downtrodden.
Jiang Yi was very satisfied and walked towards the nearest town.
It was already afternoon, the sun had set, and the crimson sunset dyed the entire sky red. At this time, there were only two people walking side by side on the path in the woods.
This scene is like a young couple taking a stroll on a date.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but hum a song.
"Where do you think the demon envoy will most likely go?" Jiang Yi asked Chen Yu in a good mood.
Chen Yu thought about it. He didn't know much about the Demon Messenger, nor did he know much about the Demon Messenger's preferences, so he couldn't accurately determine what the Demon Messenger was thinking.
Feeling uncertain, he did not answer Jiang Yi's question.
Jiang Yi didn't get a reply, but he wasn't annoyed. He always felt that against the backdrop of the beautiful scenery, Chen Yu's indifference became a little more adorable.
As they walked, it was already dark. Shen Yu walked without changing his expression, when he suddenly found that Jiang Yi beside him had stopped.
Chen Yu couldn't help but stop as well, turned around and looked at Jiang Yi in confusion: "What's wrong?"
His first reaction was that Jiang Yi had noticed something and there might be some danger around.
Jiang Yi pointed to the bushes. Chen Yu looked over and found a faint light inside.
"Fireflies!" Jiang Yi whispered, fearing that the loud noise would scare them away.
Chen Yu looked at her and suddenly found that the light of surprise in Jiang Yi's eyes was brighter than those fireflies.
My heart softened instantly.
Chen Yu suppressed the soft emotion, turned cold, left a word, and left.
"Don't drag your feet, hurry up and go."
Jiang Yi became a little discouraged and depressed when people hated the things he liked.
On the rest of the way from the grove to the town, Jiang Yi lost his previous high spirits and spoke less.
Shen Yu's expression became even uglier.
After finally arriving in the town, Jiang Yi still didn't say anything.
"Let's find an inn first." Chen Yu said.
It was getting late, and the most important thing at this moment was to find an inn to stay.
Jiang Yi nodded and let him arrange it.
The two walked a short distance and found an inn that was still open, so they walked in together.
"Two upper rooms." Chen Yu reached out and pointed at the cabinet at the door of the inn.
The shopkeeper who was sorting out the accounts looked up at the two of them without saying a word.
The shopkeeper had seen many different kinds of people traveling from north to south, and based on his experience, he could conclude that Chen Yu and Jiang Yi were a couple based on their attire.
Seeing that there was awkwardness and no communication between the two, I guessed that they had a quarrel.
"There is only one left in the upper room." The shopkeeper lied without changing his expression.
Chen Yu's expression froze for a moment, then he said, "Then we'll have one upstairs room and one downstairs room."
Jiang Yi couldn't help but say when he heard this: "I don't live in the lower room."
Are you kidding? How could she, the headmaster of the Yunyou Sect, possibly live in such a filthy servant's room?
"I'm sorry, sir, there are no lower rooms left. This is the only upper room left."
"Then let's go look somewhere else." Shen Yu said and wanted to leave.
"Sir, please feel free to go around town. The only room available at this hour is our small shop." The shopkeeper was not at all flustered and continued to calculate with the abacus.
"Then please help us see if anyone wants to check out. I'm willing to pay a high price for it."
"Hey, sir, you don't have to spend money like this. As the saying goes, a couple quarrels at the head of the bed but makes up at the foot of the bed. A grown man should be more broad-minded and take the initiative to reconcile with his wife. Okay, this is the only room left in the whole town. Don't be picky. I'll open it for you and let the waiter take you to check in."
After that, Pilipala calculated the bill and told Chen Yu a price.
After hearing what he said, Chen Yu knew that the shopkeeper had misunderstood, but as the Demon Lord, he couldn't bring himself to explain to an ordinary person in the human world because of his dignity and status.
Unlike Shen Yu, Jiang Yi couldn't help laughing after hearing what the shopkeeper said.
Unexpectedly, her sudden idea of couple outfits really worked.
When Chen Yu heard her laughter, he glanced at her with an uneasy look on his face.
Jiang Yi quickly straightened his expression and whispered to Shen Yu: "I know you don't want to be with me, but there's nothing I can do. This is the only room we have. Please bear with it for a while. It's important to catch someone."
Hearing her words, Shen Yu's expression did not ease much.
"Well, that's what I mean. Husband and wife have a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days. The quarrels will make their relationship better. Waiter, take these two guests to the upper room of Tianzi!" The shopkeeper kept nagging and refused to give in.
Jiang Yi was almost injured from trying so hard to hold back his laughter.
"Here I come! Two gentlemen, please come in." The waiter heard the shopkeeper's voice and hurried over, took the sign, and took the two people upstairs.
The two of them then decided on a place to stay.
"It's still early, why don't you go out for a walk?" Jiang Yi suggested, no longer feeling depressed as he came.
Chen Yu thought the same thing, and the two of them had the same idea. They wanted to go out and do some investigation under the cover of night.
But to their surprise, there were a lot of people on the streets of the town that night.
It seemed like there was a festival in the town and everyone was out celebrating.
The streets were bustling with people, shoulder to shoulder, and it was very lively.
