Chapter 50 Fifty Cuts: "The Plants of the Demon Realm are Too Insidious"...
Wuji Palace received two tasks: one was to find Amo, who was hiding in a corner of the Heavenly Realm, and the other was to bring Suo'ai, who had returned to the Demon Realm, back to Dongzhi Wonderland.
Luo Mingshu and her group began discussing the division of labor. Xu Qian and Meng Weifang didn't want to go to the Demon Realm because they were afraid of the demons. In fact, Luo Mingshu herself wasn't sure if she could communicate with the demons, since she only knew one demon, Xie Changming, and her "communication" with Xie Changming hadn't been very pleasant.
She had originally intended to go and look for Amo as well, but then she thought that she might be able to find Xie Changming in the Demon Realm. If she got the chance, she would definitely beat up this bad guy who abandoned his teammates.
So she volunteered to go to the Demon Realm and bring Lock Love back.
During these discussions, Xie Changming couldn't find a topic to participate in, because the explorers in Wuji Palace all knew that he was Xie Changming in disguise, formerly known as the Supreme Immortal Lord. If the original Xie Changming were still alive, as he and Suo'ai were both demons, communication would be much easier. But now that he was the Supreme Immortal Lord, no one thought he could play any role.
“That’s settled.” Luo Mingshu made the decision. “I will go to the Demon Realm to bring Suo’ai back, and the two of you will go to find Amo.”
Xu Qian asked with some concern, "Super beautiful goddess, are you sure your way of bringing Suo Ai back isn't to have him chase you all the way to Dongzhi Wonderland?"
"I have extensive experience communicating with demons (referring to my online arguments with Xie Changming), so don't worry," Luo Mingshu said confidently.
After Xu Qian and Meng Weifang left, Xie Changming asked her, "Why didn't you ask me if I could communicate with the demons?"
"You're the Supreme Immortal Lord!" Luo Mingshu placed her hand on his forehead. "What's wrong? Have you been playing my security captain for too long, so you're getting too into character?"
Xie Changming began to selectively listen to the content again, focusing on the words "my home." He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."
Luo Mingshu glanced down at the hem of his robe, hoping a tail would peek out from underneath. She clapped her hands and said, "I have a brilliant plan. Although you are the Supreme Immortal Lord, the people in the Demon Realm don't know your identity. Listen to me, you continue to play the demon. This will increase my affinity with the people in the Demon Realm."
Xie Changming: "..." No need to act, I am who I am.
He sighed inwardly, realizing he seemed to be wearing too many layers of disguise, but simply put, what he should do now is to be himself without any pretense.
The two set off for the Demon Realm. Xie Changming was no longer the same Xie Changming, so he could not openly display the teleportation spell that had once released Suo Ai in front of Luo Mingshu.
To travel from the Celestial Realm to the Demon Realm, one must traverse the Dark Abyss in the far west of the Celestial Realm. Luo Mingshu and Xie Changming arrived here and jumped into the Dark Abyss, landing in the Demon Realm.
The Demon Realm is almost as large as the Celestial Realm; it seems that the Demon Realm lies in the shadow of the Celestial Realm.
Luo Mingshu was a little afraid of heights. She took half a step forward and was about to take out her flying magic weapon from her spatial pouch. She had all kinds of magic weapons.
But before she could take out her magic weapon, Xie Changming grabbed her hand and said, "I'll take you down with me."
Luo Mingshu shook off his hand: "You... fine, you can bring me, but why are you holding my hand?"
"I am your husband." Xie Changming always remembered this disguise.
These words didn't sound like something a scumbag who had abandoned his Daoist partner for over a thousand years would say. Luo Mingshu looked at him suspiciously.
Before she could finish wondering, Xie Changming jumped down with her. The feeling of weightlessness came over her, and the whistling wind was right beside her ears. Luo Mingshu had no time to think about anything else.
Upon landing, they found themselves in the Demon Realm. Because one of the explorers was a genuine Demon Lord, the Demon Realm in the exploration scene was highly realistic. The surrounding environment was extremely dark, with only a crescent moon in the sky providing light, its pale light shimmering faintly.
Luo Mingshu had also read some books about the Demon Realm. She knew that when there was a moon in the sky, it was daytime in the Demon Realm—and at the same time, it was also daytime in the human world. During the day, the moon hid in the Demon Realm, so it was also daytime in the human world. When night fell in the human world, the sun rotated towards the Demon Realm. Because of the Demon Realm's special environment, sunlight could not penetrate the thick black clouds, and there was no moonlight either, so it was also nighttime in the Demon Realm.
Due to this unique environment, the creatures in the Demon Realm are incredibly diverse and bizarre.
When Luo Mingshu first came here, she saw light blue moonflowers planted by the roadside. Curious, she went over and gently touched the bright white petals of the moonflowers.
She loved beautiful things, and this flower, so pure and elegant, had a noble and graceful air about it, so she was willing to get closer to look at it.
Before Xie Changming could stop her, Luo Mingshu touched the petals of the moonflower again.
She was, after all, a Nascent Soul cultivator, and her aura was extremely oppressive. To Moonlight Flower, she was dangerous.
so--
"Pfft." Dark ink sprayed directly onto her face.
Luo Mingshu stood there, completely stunned.
Of course, the moonflower didn't spray ink to attack her; the moonflower is non-toxic. The reason it did this was to hide itself.
The black sap of the moonflower has a partial invisibility effect. Combined with its original color, the black sap soaks into the flower, hiding the entire flower.
It sprays ink just to hide itself, which is a real problem for Luo Mingshu who is unaware of the truth.
She looked down and saw that the Moonflower that had sprayed ink all over her face had vanished. Unable to find a target for her revenge, she could only raise her hand, preparing to wipe her face haphazardly with her sleeve.
If it were just her alone, she wouldn't mind too much, but now she has someone else by her side.
Xie Changming leaned forward slightly. He had originally intended to stop Luo Mingshu from scaring the Moonflower, but he clearly didn't have time.
Seeing that Luo Mingshu was about to wipe her face with her sleeve, he quickly grabbed her hand.
"Don't move." Xie Changming lifted her cheek with one hand and wiped her face with the corner of his white clothes. Luo Mingshu's embarrassed look was really cute, which made him chuckle softly.
Luo Mingshu heard his laughter. Her vision was also blurred by the ink, but she could feel Xie Changming carefully wiping the dirt off her cheeks.
"What are you laughing at? Is it that funny? Isn't it just that the plants in the Demon Realm are too insidious?" Luo Mingshu said defiantly.
"Yes, yes, yes." Xie Changming replied perfunctorily, mainly because she hadn't concealed her aura, which had frightened the Moonflower, a very sensitive plant.
"The Demon Realm is truly treacherous; we must be careful," Luo Mingshu muttered to herself, trying to hide her embarrassment.
Xie Changming, with a white handkerchief wrapped around his fingertips, carefully wiped away the black liquid from her eyes. He said, "Yes."
Luo Mingshu's vision returned to normal. She blinked, her long, wet eyelashes looking somewhat pitiful, and her eyes seemed to be glistening with tears. She saw Xie Changming standing in front of her.
At this moment, Xie Changming lowered his eyes and was still carefully wiping the dirt off her forehead. His expression was serious, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and the corners of his lips were slightly upturned, outlining a very beautiful arc.
Luo Mingshu opened her lips, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.
"It's all because of this Supreme Immortal Lord. He knew I was ordinary-looking, so he disguised himself as Xie Changming to seduce me," Luo Mingshu thought to herself.
After cleaning the black liquid off her cheeks, Xie Changming patted her forehead to indicate that she was done.
Luo Mingshu turned around, still wanting to look for that unlucky moonflower, but Xie Changming couldn't help but remind her, "It sprayed out black sap because it was frightened by you, so it wanted to hide itself with black sap."
"You're from the Celestial Realm, how do you know so much about the Demon Realm?" Luo Mingshu wouldn't allow anyone to be more knowledgeable than her.
Fortunately, Xie Changming had come prepared in order to protect his identity. He took out a small booklet—a booklet he used for taking notes, which was originally blank.
Holding the booklet, he said, "I just found a Magic Domain encyclopedia."
Before he could react, Luo Mingshu jumped up and snatched the booklet from his hand: "Let me study this."
She opened the booklet, only to find it was blank inside.
This is Xie Changming's booklet, so he can manipulate the text on it at will. He explained, "This Demon Realm Encyclopedia is a question-and-answer booklet. You have to ask it a question for it to answer you."
Luo Mingshu hadn't expected such a treasure to exist. She opened the encyclopedia and asked earnestly, "What is a Moonflower?"
The encyclopedia of the Demon Realm immediately displayed the following text: "Moonlight Flowers are plants that can be found everywhere in the Demon Realm. They bloom all year round. They are timid by nature. Once frightened, they will spit out black sap to coat themselves. This black sap has some invisibility effect and is often collected by the residents of the Demon Realm to make invisibility talismans or pills. The Moonlight Flowers that are coated with black sap will clean themselves off with rainwater when the next rainy season arrives."
This detailed introduction was actually compiled by Xie Changming himself, but Luo Mingshu found it very interesting.
She treated this booklet as a kind of exploration tool, asking about everything she saw along the way. She could recognize all the treasures in the human realm, the demon realm, and even the celestial realm. Only the demon realm was a blank area in her knowledge, and now was a good time to accumulate experience.
Luo Mingshu and Xie Changming continued walking forward. At this moment, under the dim moonlight, a rustling sound suddenly came from the desolate woods beside them.
"What is it?" Luo Mingshu asked warily.
Xie Changming manipulated the booklet to display new text: "The Crimson Feather Rat is a rare creature in the Demon Realm Jungle. Legend has it that it only appears during the waning moon, and its characteristics are—"
A small mouse with fiery red fur darted out of the jungle. It seemed to have sensed something and rushed over, but when it saw Luo Mingshu and Xie Changming, it froze, as if caught in some dilemma.
"Its characteristic is its fondness for beautiful women, so it is a pet that many demons like to keep. Because its nature is very compatible with the demons, only red-feathered rats that live for more than a hundred years can possess intelligence."
Here's what happened: the Crimson Feather Rat activated its beauty detection radar and rushed towards Luo Mingshu and Xie Changming. But the problem was, there were two great beauties standing in front of him, and he didn't know whose arms to throw himself into.
"In short, this rat is lecherous." Xie Changming saw that the red-feathered rat was male. After weighing the pros and cons, it moved closer to Luo Mingshu. He then flicked it away, sending it flying. He said this casually to Luo Mingshu.
