On the rooftop, the three of them stood there, their clothes fluttering in the wind.
Guan Qingchen and Han Yunluo watched the play from afar.
Kong Yang and Xi Xi almost knelt down there.
With tears streaming down his face, Kong Yang pleaded, "Master Jiang, I have young children and elderly parents to support. Please, please spare me."
Xi Xi forced herself to remain calm: "I know you are very powerful, but we two have never done anything evil since we were transformed from demons to humans. If you try to harm us, Heaven might punish you." Xi Xi spoke the word "Heaven" very softly, as if she herself did not believe that Heaven would be on her side.
Since ancient times, humans and demons have been irreconcilable enemies.
Regardless of whether they are good or bad demons, they will all be killed.
Jiang Si was speechless: "Why do you think I would kill you? I don't consider myself a top-notch saint, but I've never indiscriminately killed innocent people."
"And another thing, can you wipe your snot and drool off, you peacock spirit? You're supposed to be a peacock that spreads its tail feathers."
Upon hearing this, Kong Yang stopped sniffling, feeling wronged, and even let out a loud burp.
Jiang Si: "..."
Kong Yang, still sobbing, wiped away his tears and said, "I'm about to die, what do I care about opening the screen?"
The rhinoceros demon, being slightly less foolish, asked warily, "You really won't kill us?"
"I won't kill them," Jiang Si said earnestly, her expression calm.
She was afraid that if she made any expression, these two demons would explode on the spot in front of her.
"Why are you all so afraid of me?" Jiang Si asked, for there is always a reason for everything.
"We all say that you are the nemesis of demons, that you hate demons to the bone and will kill them on sight," the rhinoceros demon said.
"Since you're so afraid of me, why do you dare to do such public work?" Jiang Si continued to ask. There was no reason why someone who was so afraid of her would dare to come out and about.
Hearing this, both demons felt a little aggrieved.
“We never intended to do this job!” Kong Yang said. “But the agent pulled out a contract and said that if we didn’t take the job, we would have to pay an exorbitant amount in compensation.”
Jiang Si: "..." She is quite pitiful.
"You're demons, so you can just leave."
The two demons remained silent for a long while before speaking:
"Going back will only lead to our deaths."
"The spiritual energy in the demon realm is depleted, and nothing grows. Our people are waiting for us to earn money to buy things and return home to live."
This is also why they are so afraid of a Taoist master like Jiang Si, yet they still choose to stay here, praying that as a minor celebrity, they won't have to see someone like Jiang Si who is semi-retired.
Jiang Si then realized that perhaps it was because they had lived in the demon realm since birth, and the demon realm was naturally suitable for the growth of demons, which allowed them to cultivate into human form.
If any demon dares to cause trouble in the human world, it must be careful of the punishment of Heaven.
If it were just one person, it might not matter whether they lived or died, but judging from what they said, there was a family to support. If they really died, their family might not be able to survive.
But has her reputation already reached the demon realm?
“Don’t be afraid. As long as you don’t do anything bad, I won’t kill you,” Jiang Si said.
After the two demons left, Han Yunluo and Guan Qingchen came up.
Watching them walk away, he asked, "Did you find out why?"
"It's just hearsay anyway." Jiang Si herself couldn't figure it out, and asked Han Yunluo, "How much do you know about the demon realm?"
Jiang Si originally thought that the world she had come to would at least be free of supernatural forces and strange phenomena, but now it seems that it is not bad at all.
Since ancient times, demons have rarely come to the human realm; those that do are usually powerful demons who are not afraid of cultivators.
However, the spiritual energy in the human realm is now depleted, and cultivators are stagnating.
The same applies to the demon realm.
"As you know, since the beginning of time, there has been a barrier between the demon realm and the human realm, and the two have never interacted. Even if they do, it is very rare." Han Yunluo thought for a moment and said, "But since ancient times, the celestial ladder between the human realm and the upper realm collapsed, and spiritual energy no longer flows between them. In order to protect itself, the demon realm closed the gate between the two realms. Since then, humans and demons have been separated."
"In recent years, perhaps because the spiritual energy of the demon realm has also been depleted, the gate between the two realms has been unable to maintain itself and will open periodically, which allows them to come over."
Ordinary humans are unaware of the demon realm, and cultivators have no interest in that place. Whether it's open or not, no human would actually go in, except perhaps by chance.
For ordinary humans, eating it would be a bad deal, as the punishment from Heaven would be relentless. Therefore, any stray intruders would be quickly sent away.
These humans are nothing but a fleeting dream.
Guan Qingchen listened silently from the side.
This world is too fantastical.
"Then let's go in and take a look when it opens," Jiang Si said casually.
She wanted to see which blind demon was spreading rumors about her.
Are you two interested?
Han Yunluo: "Okay."
Guan Qingchen swallowed hard: "Of course I'm interested!"
That's the demon realm; how many chances does a human have to get in?
However, the first step is to find out where the gate to the demon realm is.
Then, the next day, Kong Yang and Xi Xi were tricked into coming to Guan Qingchen's entertainment company under the pretext of work.
Upon seeing Jiang Si, the two almost knelt down together again.
Could it be that Jiang Si is planning to back out at the last minute?
The two men, trembling with fear, entered the office as if facing certain death.
The agent was frustrated and disappointed. This was such a rare opportunity for Guan Qingchen; it could have been a meteoric rise to fame. And these two were still nagging him.
He said sternly from behind, "You have to be careful to please them, understand? This is the final straw."
Then, with a forced smile, he said, "You guys chat, you guys chat."
The door closed, and the room was silent.
Jiang Si said, "Don't be afraid, I'm just asking you a question."
“Please ask,” Kong Yang said.
"I need to go to the demon realm. Show me the way," Jiang Si said bluntly.
"May I ask what you're going to do in the demon realm?" Xi Xi asked.
They don't want to be condemned for all time.
Jiang Si understood their feelings.
One character is a ruthless demon who kills monsters without blinking an eye, so it's a bit difficult to convince them that she is her.
They could still distinguish between their own death and the death of their people.
Jiang Si raised her hand and made a Taoist oath: "I swear that I will not harbor any murderous intent on this journey."
Taoism is also considered a school that seizes the creation of heaven and earth. If one makes a Taoist oath and breaks it, one will be punished by being struck by lightning. Therefore, even Taoists dare not easily make such an oath.
Seeing Jiang Si's sincerity, they had no choice but to agree to take her there.
After all, even if they didn't bring them, with Jiang Si's cultivation level, it was only a matter of time before she figured out how to find the gate to the demon realm.
Since she is so sincere, they should at least give her face.
The gates to the demon realm reopened on the 28th day of the lunar calendar in Japan, at the time of the waning moon.
The location is in the southwest.
There are three days left until the 28th.
But man proposes, God disposes. Just as Jiang Si was about to go there, her grandfather, who lived far away in the countryside, called.
Her voice was weak and feeble on the phone: "Ah Si, please come back quickly, Grandpa might not make it."
