The Demon Realm.
Today, Qingcheng took her 'fiancé', Lord Hongyan, out of the palace again. However, this time he wasn't going out to play, but to pick up Qiyou, who was returning from the Ghost Realm.
After Qi You recovered from his injuries, he sent a message to Qing Cheng that he was going back. He didn't intend for Qing Cheng to pick him up, but Qing Cheng hadn't seen him for so long and insisted on personally leading a group to pick him up.
He didn't see anything wrong with his kindness towards Qi You, but it greatly displeased Lord Hongyan. When Lord Hongyan learned that Qingcheng was going to personally pick up Qi You, he immediately turned into a jealous person. He looked at the Demon King packing his things to go out and pick up Qi You with a sour expression and said, "Little Qingcheng~ You're so good to Qi You, I'm going to get jealous~"
Having spent so much time together, Qingcheng already knew what kind of person Hongyan Shenjun was, so she said with a smile, "Alright, since you like being jealous, I'll take you with me to pick up people and let you be jealous to your heart's content."
And so, Qingcheng, who had originally planned to take Qiyou's clansmen to pick up Qiyou, changed her mind and only took Hongyan Divine Lord with her when she went out.
The ghost realm usually keeps a fairly strict watch on ghosts. Although it's not that their activities are limited to the ghost realm, they can go to other places as well. However, they need to obtain some very troublesome passes to go to other places, so ghosts rarely leave the ghost realm.
People from the demon realm can travel freely to the ghost realm as long as they have a pass.
Qingcheng and Hongyan Shenjun went to the Ghost Realm secretly, concealing their identities. They did not enter the Ghost Realm but waited for Qiyou to come out at the border between the Ghost Realm and the Demon Realm, so they did not need to apply for a pass.
In the dimly lit ghost realm, Qi You was saying goodbye to her newly made friend before leaving with her meager belongings.
"Yo ho~ Let me see, it seems everything's alright now. How was your time in the Ghost Realm?"
As soon as Qingcheng saw Qiyou come out, she ran up to him and gave him a big bear hug. She also greeted him warmly and friendly. This action almost made Hongyan Shenjun, who was standing behind her, furious!
Lord Hongyan saw his 'little darling' running off to hug another man right under his nose. Although this other man was Qingcheng's childhood friend, it still made him very unhappy.
"Hey, that's enough, stop hugging and cuddling, let's talk this out."
With a dark expression, Lord Hongyan stepped forward and separated Qingcheng and Qiyou. He then pulled Qingcheng back to his side and said, "Let's go. We can't stay away from the Demon Realm for too long. We can talk about it when we get back."
As he spoke, he held Qingcheng's hand tightly, preventing her from getting any closer to Qiyou.
Although Qingcheng had gotten used to being pulled and tugged around by Hongyan Shenjun during this time, she still felt a little awkward when facing her friend.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Qi You cleverly pretend not to notice their little exchange and simply bow to Lord Hongyan and say, "Greetings, Lord Hongyan."
After Qi You finished bowing to Lord Hong Yan, he said to Qing Cheng, "Qing Cheng, I'm fine now, and my injuries have almost healed. However, there are some things I need to tell you about the Demon Realm. Let's go back first and talk about it then."
"Okay, sure."
The group quickly returned to the Demon King's palace. However, because the clan chief Qiyou was usually very familiar with the Demon King, he could only stand respectfully below when reporting matters this time, and could no longer stand with the Demon King to discuss matters.
Inside the main hall, Qi You took out two letters covered in graffiti and handed them to Qing Cheng.
"Qingcheng, take a look at these two letters and see if you can find anything out. That witch is really strange. She saved me, gave me these two strange letters, and even went to the Ghost Realm to look for me. If I hadn't almost been hurt by her again when I was in the Ghost Realm, I would have suspected that she had taken a liking to me."
Qi You was puzzled when he thought of the witch who delivered the letter to him. After reading the letter for so long, he still couldn't figure out what the doodles meant. However, he felt that the two letters were not just simple doodles, otherwise the witch would not have disobeyed her master's orders to save him.
Qingcheng and Hongyan Shenjun found Qiyou's explanation strange as well. They examined the letter repeatedly but couldn't discern anything. Finally, Qingcheng put the letter down and pretended to ponder, saying, "Qiyou, I think that witch might really have fallen for you, but because of the relationship between our two realms, she couldn't say it. As for saving you, it was probably because she didn't want to see her beloved die in front of her."
Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Qiyou rolled his eyes and sneered, "Heh~ You're wrong, my Demon King. I think she's probably interested in you. After all, you're a renowned beauty in the Six Realms. Maybe she saved me because of you, and this letter might even be a love letter she asked me to bring back for you~"
"Sigh~ You can't say things like that. I've never even seen that witch. She's clearly got her eye on you."
"Tch, just because you haven't seen her doesn't mean she hasn't seen you!"
"No, no, no, it must be you, it's you."
"It couldn't be me, it could definitely be you!"
Hongyan Shenjun, who was listening to the two kindergarten children arguing, was amused by them. Holding the two letters in his hand, he said, "Ahem~ I think the witch probably didn't like anyone. Maybe she was just delivering a letter."
