Chapter 25: Saving the Demonic Villain 12
The demon world, which is only dark at night, will one day welcome its own stars.
Arriving in the Demon Realm, this was the first time that Xing Jian left the Demon Palace. Unlike the imagined mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the bustling market in the Demon Realm before him looked as lively as the human world, except that the street vendors were all people from the Demon Realm with bull heads and human bodies, or with demonic energy emanating from their bodies.
The crooked obsidian buildings on both sides of the market were covered with fluorescent vines, and animal bone lanterns were hung in front of the half-human-high stalls, illuminating the hideous faces of the demons in flickering light.
As soon as the two appeared in the market, their identities were exposed by the demons in the market.
"The Demon Lord is here. Who is that person next to him?" The minotaur selling sweet water looked at the newly appointed Demon Lord, holding the hand of an extremely beautiful young man, and asked the people around him in a low voice.
The person next to him punched the little bull man and said, "Nonsense, it must be the Demon Queen. Look how well-matched the Demon Lord is with him."
Feng Chuqiu heard every word of their conversation. He was originally sulking because Xing Jian wanted to meet someone other than himself, but after listening to the conversation between the two, the corners of his mouth curled up a lot.
Xing Jian stood beside Feng Chuqiu, watching the man's changing expression. The worry on his face did not decrease but increased. Feng Chuqiu in front of him was lying to him, and Xing Jian had always known it.
What he said about the soul and spirit being merged was just a lie from the "Feng Chuqiu" in front of him. There was no trace of any spiritual contract in the soul of this person. Even though that person said that the spiritual contract had been released, Xingjian could vaguely feel the restraint of the spiritual contract.
If the spiritual contract had not been broken, then there could only be one reason to explain everything that was happening now, that is, the person in front of him was not "Feng Chuqiu" at all, but the demon lord in the original plot who was betrayed by everyone and committed suicide in the final battle with Lu Zikun?
Xing Jian could feel that the soul of the person in front of him had the same origin as Feng Chuqiu's soul. Could it be that in this world, his lover split his soul into two?
So how can I heal Feng Chuqiu and the others? It was hard for Feng Chuqiu not to turn evil when he saw how sweet she was with the Demon Lord Feng Chuqiu. The more Xingjian thought about it, the more he felt that the missions in this world were particularly difficult. No wonder he used his original power in this world, otherwise he would have failed the mission long ago.
"Feng Chuqiu, didn't you say you would walk with me? Let's go." Xing Jian pulled Feng Chuqiu's arm, looked at the dazed look in front of him, and shook Feng Chuqiu's arms.
"Let's go through the stars and see if there's anything you like." Feng Chuqiu finally came back to his senses and held Xing Jian's hand back in his palm.
On the bustling streets of the Demon Realm, the vendors on the street couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts when they saw Feng Chuqiu and Xing Jian. This new Demon Lord, who had only been in office for a few days, possessed considerable strength. It was said that he defeated the previous Demon Lord with just two moves.
Even though all the demons on the street were trembling, it was obvious that this Demon Lord was out shopping with his demon queen. If he escaped now, he might face terrible punishment if they blamed him in the future.
It’s better to stay here now. I heard that the Demon Queen came from the human world. The human world doesn’t hate bloody things the most. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.
Looking at the vendors selling special products from the demon world on the street, there were beads made of monster bones, and all kinds of snacks that Xing Jian had never seen before.
Xing Jian squatted in front of a street stall, looking at the string of mermaid pearls on the ground. They were exactly the same as the mermaid pearls embroidered on the cloud shoulder that Feng Chuqiu gave him.
"Feng Chuqiu, these beads are the same as the beads on the dress you gave me." Star Sword, holding the mermaid beads, turned around and saw Feng Chuqiu's face that froze for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the dress was given to him by another Feng Chuqiu, not the one in front of him.
The unnatural look on his face only lasted for a moment before being replaced by Feng Chuqiu's smile. Xing Jian looked at Feng Chuqiu whose expression changed instantly and thought to himself: If 004 was still there and had installed a blackening detection device, he would probably be constantly sounding the alarm now.
"My dear host, the villains' blackening value is about to go through the roof, and why are there only two blackening values for villains in this world?" A familiar voice came from Xingjian's mind.
"Xiao 4, you're back!" Xing Jian's voice was filled with excitement, and for a moment he almost forgot the presence of the pervert Feng Chuqiu beside him.
Feng Chuqiu, sensing something was amiss, looked at Xing Jian. Noticing his happiness, he then looked at the mermaid pearl in his hand. "Xiao Xing, do you like this pearl very much? That piece of clothing is nothing important."
"Your Majesty..." The stall owner's eight spider legs were nervously curled up against his abdomen, and his two top arms respectfully held the mermaid pearl on his head, waiting for Feng Chuqiu's decision.
"Since the Demon Queen likes them, send all these mermaid pearls to the Demon Palace. Someone there will reward you."
Xing Jian looked at the mermaid pearl in his hand, then looked at Feng Chuqiu who was waving his hand, and stood up directly, leaving a light kiss on the man's face.
Then they ran to the next stall with joy and continued looking for fun and interesting things.
He walked past one stall after another, and suddenly heard the sound of glass colliding in the distance. Xingjian's attention was drawn to an inconspicuous stall. It was a stall set up by a thin little girl. If it weren't for the girl's extra arms, she would look no different from an ordinary little girl in the human world.
Her stall was selling lanterns of all kinds. Xing Jian looked at the girl's extra arm, then at the lanterns. Was this the benefit of having extra hands? She could weave such exquisite little lanterns so quickly.
"Little girl, what kind of flower is your lantern made of? I have never seen such a flower before." Xing Jian held a lantern in his palm. The lantern had layers of red petals. Not only that, there was also a series of small flower buds at the bottom of the lantern.
The little girl looked at the Star Sword in front of her, her cheeks slightly flushed as she lowered her head shyly. She replied softly, "This is a flower from my hometown, called the double-petaled mother-and-daughter flower. The small flowers underneath are the daughter flowers. When the mother flower withers, the daughter flowers will transform into mother flowers. So even if this flower is picked, it can still bloom for a month without fading."
"Such a magical flower, I really want to see with my own eyes what it looks like."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
This kind of double-petaled mother-and-daughter flower only grows in the Hanging Spider Cave. Feng Chuqiu, who was once a prince, particularly liked this exotic flower and planted many in the palace, but without exception, all of them died.
At first he thought there was something wrong with his planting method, but later he found out that the flowers he planted had been watered with hot water by other princes, so naturally no sprouts could grow.
