“There are indeed risks, so I kept a low profile in the demon race afterward and basically never revealed my identity,” Zu’an comforted him.
To everyone's surprise, Pei Mianman was quick-witted and immediately realized what she meant: "From what you're saying, you're going back to the demon race?"
Zuan nodded: "That's right. I obtained a treasure map in an ancient tomb of the demon race. It contains a map of an unknown place, which is located in the demon race's royal court. Master Yan and Master Yun are also going there."
Pei Mianman gave a soft snort: "After saying all that, you just want to explain that it wasn't for Yu Yanluo's sake, right?"
Of course, she also knew that the unknown land was too attractive to cultivators, and indeed no one could resist it.
Zuan said somewhat apologetically, "That is indeed part of the reason. I don't know what the Demon Emperor wants to do by summoning the leaders of various races to the royal court this time."
"Alright, alright, you take good care of Sister Yu then, and of course, take good care of yourself too. Just don't die in the demon race." Pei Mianman felt strange. Logically speaking, Yu Yanluo entered the family later than her, so she should be the younger sister. But the other party was a famous person who had been around for many years, and could even be said to be a person from the previous generation. She just couldn't bring herself to call her younger sister.
Zuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, knowing that such a wonderful Manman is waiting for me, I had to rush back no matter what."
"Pah, pah, pah, say something auspicious," Pei Mianman spat. "By the way, how did you get back from the demon realm in such a short time?"
Zuan summoned the Wind and Fire Wheels: "These are the Wind and Fire Wheels. Teacher Shang got them from her nephew to apologize to me..."
After listening to his brief introduction, Pei Mianman exclaimed, "I never expected that Teacher Shang was actually from the Sea Clan, and that he had hidden his strength so well."
Zuan also sighed, "That's right. I've discovered that there are actually many demons lurking in human society, and these people don't necessarily have any bad intentions; on the contrary, they are quite friendly."
"Humans have good and bad people, and demons naturally have good and bad demons as well." Pei Mianman teased, mimicking his tone. "But how come you're so popular with women? Teacher Shang even tricked his own nephew, but you're the one who benefited."
"Haha, maybe it's because I've always been popular with people," Zu An said with an embarrassed smile.
Pei Mianman had a deep impression of Teacher Shang's personality from Mingyue Academy, so she didn't think much of it. Instead, she was more concerned about something else: "There's only one pair of Wind and Fire Wheels. How did you and Abbot Yan get back? Don't tell me you each rode one?"
Zuan: "..."
If others found out, Yan Xuehen would be so ashamed and angry that she would come to silence him.
However, he reacted quickly: "Of course I supported her the whole way. After all, she is a Grandmaster. Even if she is injured, she can still fly with difficulty."
Pei Mianman thought that Yan Xuehen's aura was still strong before, so flying shouldn't be a problem: "Don't you dare to lay a hand on Yan Guan, or you'll be dead if you offend her."
"Don't worry, a gentleman like me would never be rude to her," Zu'an said without batting an eye. A gentleman uses words, not fists, after all. "However, we later encountered danger in the Great Snow Mountain and couldn't use the Wind and Fire Wheels anymore..."
Upon hearing about the terrifying storm they encountered and the Snow Maiden at the Earth Immortal realm, Pei Mianman's expression and heart raced like a rollercoaster: "The Great Snow Mountain was indeed terrifying. By the way, what exactly did you encounter at that hot spring later?"
Zuan's expression was extremely strange: "I encountered the emperor."
