"Cold..." Feng Lin's originally cold voice suddenly softened, and he began to lean closer to Mu Tiantian, his hands weakly embracing her.
Mu Tiantian gently stroked his back.
Qi Tong yawned; his interruption couldn't have been more timely.
And why is it so sleepy?
There are too many strange things about Feng Lin; his level of hatred cannot be detected.
No, it needs to be kept a closer eye on.
Thinking of this, Qi Tong squeezed next to Mu Tiantian, hugged her arm, and tried hard to keep his eyelids open so he wouldn't fall asleep.
Mu Tiantian touched the red fur on Qitong's body, feeling its warmth, and hugged it closer to her.
Feng Lin frowned slightly upon seeing this, looking at Mu Tiantian pitifully, his voice low and hoarse, "I want to hug it... is that okay?"
Mu Tiantian stared at his delicate and pitiful appearance for a long time, wondering if he had gone delirious with fever. His personality was also so different from before.
She suddenly felt an urge to tease him, and couldn't help but pinch his cheek lightly, leaving a red mark.
"It hurts..." Feng Lin's eyes welled up with tears, and he glanced down at the little thing nestled in Mu Tiantian's arms, then pleaded, "It's so warm, I want to hold it... is that okay?"
A beautiful man, both delicate and sickly, makes his demands in a soft, gentle voice—how could she possibly resist?
Seeing that Mu Tiantian was about to "forget her friends for the sake of a pretty boy," Qi Tong quickly coughed and stared at her with wide eyes, as if to say, 'You can't forget your friends for a pretty boy! This girl is definitely acting!'
Seeing that Mu Tiantian was looking at it without saying anything, Feng Lin reached out and stroked its red fur casually. He lowered his head and looked at Qi Tong softly, asking, "You don't want to... Qi Qi?"
"I..." Qitong looked up and met Feng Lin's warning eyes, and even the hand that was touching its body made it feel extremely creepy.
It said, "This guy is definitely faking it!"
However, when he looked at Mu Tiantian, his eyes turned into that sickly and delicate look again.
Mu Tiantian felt Qi Tong trembling. Seeing that it was afraid, she changed the subject, "Qi Qi, why don't you go find us something to eat?"
Qi Tong looked at her with concern.
Mu Tiantian gave it a wink.
Based on their years of tacit understanding, Qi Tong felt that she probably wanted it to leave first, and then observe from the shadows.
Thinking it over, Qi Tong immediately followed Mu Tiantian's words and began to act, "I'll go right now."
Seeing it run away, Feng Lin made a move to catch it and bring it back, but Mu Tiantian held his hand and coaxed him softly, "It's the same if you hug me."
"Mmm." Feng Lin responded, lying on her lap, wrapping his arms around her waist, and glancing subtly at the divine token at her waist.
Mu Tiantian ruffled his hair and moved forward a little, getting closer to the firewood.
Suddenly, Feng Lin spoke softly, "Do you remember how you took care of me when I had a fever before?"
Mu Tiantian was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Of course I remember."
"Alright...then you...do it the way you used to..." Feng Lin's voice was weak.
Mu Tiantian rubbed her temples, wondering how she had taken care of him...
Logically speaking, taking care of a patient is nothing more than cooking a meal and wiping their body to cool them down.
"After Qiqi finds the food, I'll make you... the porridge I made for you before, and then... I'll lull you to sleep?" Mu Tiantian thought this was the routine.
"I misspoke just now..." Feng Lin's voice was calm, "Since we got together... only you have been sick once, with a persistent high fever, I haven't..."
Mu Tiantian paused, "You..."
Feng Lin chuckled softly, "You didn't remember..."
Unexpectedly, he actually tricked her.
"Who said that? I just... I just felt uncomfortable with you, so I went along with what you said. Of course I remember." Mu Tiantian tried hard to find an excuse.
Feng Lin tilted his head and looked up at her. "Then tell me, who was sick back then? Who took care of whom? And how were they taken care of?"
Mu Tiantian turned her head guiltily and glanced into the cave. "Why hasn't Qiqi come back yet? I'll go find it."
Feng Lin tightened his grip on her waist, preventing her from sitting up. His weak voice sounded like a complaint, "You lied to me again. You don't remember anything at all, but that chicken you called 'Seven Tong' knows everything about us. Tian Tian... do you... tell the truth?"
Mu Tiantian's temples throbbed; he was really shrewd.
She pouted, muttering weakly, "Aren't you lying to me too..."
“If you don’t want to talk about it, I can choose not to ask, but you said you would listen to me completely, does that still stand?” Feng Lin coughed twice as he spoke.
In her haste, Mu Tiantian patted his back and replied, "Of course it counts."
"If I want your divine token, can you give it to me?"
Mu Tiantian met his misty eyes and couldn't bring herself to refuse, but she still asked, "What do you need it for?"
"It... is rich in divine power, which can help my wounds heal faster. Don't you want it?" Feng Lin asked, full of disappointment. "You were the one who lied to me first, but now..."
"I'll give you whatever you want." Mu Tiantian couldn't stand his attitude and her heart softened.
Although there was a suspicion that he was deceiving her, he was currently so badly injured and had a persistent high fever, so she should just go along with him for now.
Feng Lin carefully put away the divine token, his dark eyes glancing at the silver chain around her neck. "This necklace really wasn't a gift from your 'lover' whom you've fallen for?"
Mu Tiantian understood. She took off the necklace and placed it in his hand, earnestly assuring him, "I absolutely do not have a lover. I really found the necklace. If you like it, I'll give it to you."
The instant Feng Lin took the necklace, Mu Tiantian seemed to see the purple diamond flash.
She rubbed her eyes; the necklace was still the same as before.
Are you hallucinating?
Feng Lin stared at the purple diamond for a long time. Mu Tiantian saw that he was lost in thought and assumed that he liked it very much. She thought that this should reduce her hatred and breathed a sigh of relief.
Let's just hope that nothing else goes wrong.
...
At this moment, Ji Xiaocang, who was still searching for people in the Underworld, saw Mu Qingmo in a great hurry and asked, "Qingmo, what's wrong with you? Who made you so angry?"
Mu Qingmo asked, "Where is my older brother?"
"I heard that Qingyan went missing in the Immortal Spirit Realm, and Qingxuan went to check on the situation," Ji Xiaocang said.
Mu Qingmo said, "Let me borrow your divine token."
“I have lent out my divine token.”
"Lent it out? Who did you lend it to?"
"Phoenix Eagle".
"Why did you lend it to him?" Mu Qingmo asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, Aunt Feng asked me to lend him the divine token, so I couldn't say anything. It'll be returned to me in a couple of days." Ji Xiaocang asked, "What exactly happened? Where's your divine token?"
Mu Qingmo thought for a moment, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "The person has been found. They should be in the Demon Realm. My Domain Pass is in the Divine Token. The Divine Token... I gave it to Tian Tian."
Ji Xiaocang's eyes lit up. "You found her."
Seeing his excitement, Mu Qingmo sternly reminded him, "Let me tell you, if your marriage with Tian Tian can't pass my approval, it's off the table."
Ji Xiaocang noticed the hostility in Qingmo's eyes and felt a little strange. "Qingmo... that's not what you told me before."
A few years ago, he found the first 'Mu Tiantian' based on the portrait, and the clear mirror showed that she was real.
He started to get to know her. She was very cheerful and well-behaved, and although she was a little silly, she was very attractive to him.
During their time together, he discovered that she seemed to have no temper and was excessively obedient, so she agreed to their marriage. Without much thought, he took her to formally propose to her father, mother, and four brothers.
The other three elder brothers had no objections. Only Mu Qingmo and his father and mother were somewhat hesitant, but they eventually agreed. Mu Qingmo said indifferently, "Everything should be based on Tian Tian's wishes."
He was overjoyed, but before he could even get married, 'Mu Tiantian' turned into a blood demon ginseng.
Only then did everyone realize that she was a fake, a fake that looked so real...
After some time, I found another one, but he was slightly different in personality. He wasn't as obedient and had a bit of a temper.
He believed it again, but it turned out to be a lie.
In short, the mannequins they found later were all similar in temperament and personality, but there were slight differences, and he would inevitably be fooled sometimes.
That's why Mu Qingxuan would laugh at him every time his marriage to Mu Tiantian was mentioned.
Ji Xiaocang didn't want his hopes to be dashed, so he asked Mu Qingmo seriously, "You really found her? How can you be sure of her identity? Besides, didn't you tell me before that everything was based on Tian Tian's wishes? Why have you changed your mind now?"
Mu Qingmo didn't answer, but instead asked, "I'm asking you, was the divine token authorized when it was lent out?"
“Without authorization, it’s useless for him to have the divine token.”
"You immediately cease authorization and come with me to the Demon Realm." With that, Mu Qingmo led Ji Xiaocang on their journey.
at the same time.
Feng Ying arrived at Bai Tu's lawless mansion with the divine token.
After a while, Bai Tu returned the divine token to Feng Ying. "Demon Lord, this divine token is not authorized and cannot be used for a comprehensive search for people in the Demon Realm. However, I searched for the name of the person you are looking for. There are only a few dozen people named Lin Sanshui in the entire Demon Realm, but there is no Blood Demon Ginseng. Moreover, no Blood Demon Ginseng has been able to cultivate into a spirit for nearly 10,000 years, so there is no need to search for it."
Feng Ying snatched the divine token and said angrily, "This Ji Xiaocang actually dared to play tricks on me!"
After saying that, he was about to enter the demon realm.
Bai Tu quickly stopped him, maintaining a smile, "Demon Lord, your divine token is not authorized by the High God Ji Xiaocang. If you wish to enter the Demon Realm, you will need to present your domain pass."
Feng Ying stared sharply at Bai Tu, but Bai Tu always greeted her with a smile.
After a long stalemate, Fengying gave up and turned to walk towards the sea.
Bai Tu breathed a sigh of relief; this day had really frightened him.
The phoenix eagle flew in the sky above the confluence of the demon and monster seas, scanning the surroundings, which was considered a blind spot for the monitoring crystal.
He took out a black and gold token from his waist, and after a moment, a huge leopard with ten heads appeared from the token.
One of the heads had a black rope around its neck.
Phoenix Eagle transformed the Demon God's Token into a black-gold bell, then turned into a wisp of black smoke and entered the bell. A deep voice came from within, "Ten Demon Leopards, it's up to you now."
The ten demonic leopards obeyed the command, and in the next instant their bodies began to transform into small fish that swam into the sea towards the demon realm. There were also monitoring crystals on the seabed, and it took a lot of effort to avoid them.
After landing, the Ten Demon Leopard's body transformed again, becoming an ordinary leopard. It concealed its demonic aura, leaving only a strong demonic energy, making it difficult to detect any flaws.
Successfully entered the Demon Realm.
...
Outside the City of Demon Immortals.
Many powerful demonic beasts and spirit beasts have already arrived and gathered here.
Among them were many demons who could transform into human form.
A woman led the way for Mu Tiantian, and many demonic beasts made way for her.
She and Feng Lin followed behind.
While they were in the cave, before dawn, a woman named Lian'er came to meet them and addressed Feng Lin as Lord Evil Lord.
This name alone suggests a wicked person.
Mu Tiantian felt a little uneasy. She hoped that Feng Lin wouldn't be influenced by her and become a villain in this world, otherwise she would be in big trouble.
Lian'er stood outside the city gate of the Demon Immortal City, just about to open it.
Feng Lin stopped him, "Wait a minute."
Lian'er respectfully asked, "Does the Evil Lord have any further instructions?"
Feng Lin glanced at the numerous demonic beasts, then turned to Mu Tiantian and asked, "Are you sure we don't need to find Qi Qi?"
Mu Tiantian also looked around, but she didn't find any trace of Qi Tong among the many demonic beasts.
Her original intention was indeed to have Qitong secretly keep an eye on her situation, so that if anything unexpected happened in the future, it could cooperate with her from the inside.
Before leaving the Spirit Beast Realm, Feng Lin asked her if she needed to find Qi Tong first, but she refused, saying that Qi Tong could find her by recognizing her scent.
Along the way, Mu Tiantian could spot Qi Tong from time to time, so she wasn't too worried.
But now she can't find it, and she can't help but feel uneasy.
However, since Qitong is a divine beast, there shouldn't be any problems. She can find it secretly on her own when the time comes.
"No need, Qiqi will follow my scent and find me," Mu Tiantian replied with a smile.
"Are you sure..." Feng Lin leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Did you come looking for me, or did you follow me?"
"I...I don't know what you mean. Shouldn't they be heading into the city? Let's move aside." With that, Mu Tiantian tried to pull Feng Lin to the side.
Lian'er's expression darkened slightly as she questioned Mu Tiantian, "The dignified Evil Lord, the lord of the Demon Realm, why should he give way to these demon beasts? What right do you, a mere Blood Demon Ginseng, have to order the Evil Lord around?"
"Lord Lian, you talk too much." Feng Lin coldly ordered, "Do as she says, open the city gates and let them pass."
“Lord Evil Lord…” Lian’er’s eyes widened in disbelief. The Evil Lord, who would not listen to anyone and even dared to imprison a god, was now so obedient to a nobody demon.
"What, you think the demon immortal is keeping you here to oppose me?" Feng Lin's body radiated a chilling aura, and the oppressive feeling he brought made Lian'er dare not disobey.
"Yes, Lord Evil Lord, I obey your command." No matter how wronged and unwilling Lian'er was, she still had to obey the orders she was given.
However, after the city gates were opened, not a single demon or beast dared to move and stood still, waiting for Feng Lin to enter the city first.
Snowflakes began to fall from the gloomy sky.
Mu Tiantian reached out and caught it; the snowflakes that landed on her palm were large enough to cover her hand.
This was the first time she had ever seen such large snowflakes.
Seeing that Mu Tiantian's attention was on the snowflakes, Feng Lin sternly ordered Lian'er, "Except for me, no demon or beast that has entered the Demon Immortal City shall leave the Demon Immortal City or the Demon King's Palace before winter is over."
"The Demon King's Palace?" Lian'er asked, puzzled.
Feng Lin looked at her coldly.
Lian'er dared not ask any more questions and bowed to accept the order, "Your subordinate obeys."
Before leaving, Feng Lin once again instructed, "For the next half month, no one is allowed to enter the Demon King's Palace to disturb me."
"yes."
After saying this, Feng Lin took Mu Tiantian's hand and entered the Demon Immortal City.
The snowflakes melted in their palms, the icy water making Mu Tiantian instinctively want to pull her hand away. However, Feng Lin held on tightly, his eyes lowered as he murmured, "Did you say..."
"What?" Mu Tiantian took a quick step forward, stood beside him, and looked up at him, trying to hear what he said.
Feng Lin turned his head to look at her, his narrow black eyes showing no trace of sickly weakness, but instead burning with fervor and madness.
He remained silent, only smiling slightly.
You said...you'd listen to everything I say...whether that's true or not...
I believed it.
