After Ming Cang left, Mu Tiantian wandered around the room and walked to the door standing against the wall.
She reached out and pushed it.
It remained completely still.
Mu Tiantian: [Seven, what's in here?]
System: [There seems to be another room on the other side of the door, but it's quite large; it should be Ming Cang's bedroom.]
After hearing this, Mu Tiantian pulled the door back.
It still doesn't move.
She tried to cast a spell, but it was as if she was restricted and unable to use magic.
She glanced down at the silver ring on her hand.
This is a comprehensive restriction.
She glanced at the door of the room and walked over.
She raised her hand to open the door, but before her hand could even touch it, it was pulled by the silver chain, and she couldn't even touch the edge of the door.
As Mingcang said, her activity area was limited to this room.
Mu Tiantian looked at the silver chain extending from the silver ring; it was so thin that it seemed as if it would break with a single pull.
She lifted the silver chain and yanked it hard, but her foot slipped.
"Ouch~" Mu Tiantian frowned, rubbed her bottom, and stood up from the ground. "My bottom."
Not only did the silver chain not break, but he also fell flat on his backside.
"This chain is pretty sturdy." Mu Tiantian had just finished complaining when the door opened.
Ming Cang looked at her coldly and said indifferently, "What, trying to escape?"
"I didn't mean to run away." Mu Tiantian waved her hand. "I just accidentally tripped and fell."
Now that Mu Yexuan is searching for her throughout the entire Underworld, staying here is definitely the safest option; she won't try to escape.
She was just trying out the silver chain.
She knew he was angry, but he didn't intend to kill her.
Being chained up and restricted by him isn't a big deal, as long as he's willing to provide for her, that's just like a lazy bum's life.
Moreover, the underworld is teeming with demons and is pitch black, with countless rotting corpses. She's not going to go out and invite trouble.
Mu Tiantian saw Ming Cang carrying a water bottle and smiled sweetly, "Thank you for getting me water."
She went over to take the water bottle, but Ming Cang slung it over his back and wouldn't give it to her.
Mu Tiantian instinctively reached for the kettle, but she shifted forward and bumped right into his arms.
She looked up into his calm, dark eyes, unable to discern any emotion in him.
He looked down at her full, red lips, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly. The faint scent of milk emanating from her lingered in his nostrils and seeped into his heart.
Mu Tiantian blinked, her dark pupils filled with a smile as she looked at him.
Ming Cang looked away, handed her the kettle, and didn't say a word.
Even after all this time, every part of her body still entices him.
Just as Ming Cang was about to turn away to calm himself down, Mu Tiantian tugged at his sleeve and said softly, "Ayan..."
"Do you want your throat crushed?" Ming Cang threatened coldly.
"No." Mu Tiantian shook her head, changing her form of address, "Then... Demon Lord, is there anything to eat?"
She chuckled, rubbing her stomach. "I'm hungry."
Ming Cang looked at her smiling face and remained silent, no matter how he treated her, she would not be angry.
He couldn't bring himself to complain or even retaliate against her.
He had thought of countless ways to torment her after their reunion, but when the moment actually came, he couldn't think of a single one.
He locked her up with silver chains because he wanted to torture her.
But he could no longer tell whether he wanted to torment her or keep her by his side.
Ming Cang did not answer, and turned to walk out.
He entered the courtyard and called out in a loud voice, "Ning Xue."
The next moment, a wisp of black energy transformed into a human form before Ming Cang and respectfully bowed, "Lord Demon Lord."
"Go prepare some food and bring it over."
"Demon Lord."
Just as Ming Cang finished giving his instructions and was about to leave, Ning Xue called him back.
"What is it?" Ming Cang's attitude was indifferent, and his dark eyes were so cold that people dared not look him in the eye.
"My Lord Demon Lord, is that woman a demon or a monster?" Ning Xue asked cautiously, her voice filled with worry. "I'm just afraid that you might be in danger, my Lord Demon Lord."
Ming Cang frowned slightly and said coldly, "You don't need to know. Have you forgotten the rules of the Demon Palace?"
He disliked others trying to get information from him; he was always the one asking the questions.
Seeing his displeasure, Ning Xue quickly apologized, "It was my fault for being so talkative and forgetting the rules for a moment. I will carry out the Demon Lord's orders immediately."
Having said that, Ming Cang ignored him and turned to leave.
After Ming Cang left, Ning Xue glared fiercely at the bedroom where Mu Tiantian was.
She, one of the dignified palace masters of the Demon Palace, was actually made to serve a woman of unknown origin?
Want to eat?
Ha, she'll definitely make this woman have a meal she'll never forget!
Mu Tiantian sat in the room, poured herself a glass of water, took a sip, and found it a little sweet.
Is the water in the underworld really that delicious?
She drank quite a bit more, and the water in the kettle seemed inexhaustible.
Mu Tiantian drank a lot of water first, wondering if Ming Cang would bring her food.
She lay in bed for a while and heard Qi Tong's voice.
System: [I've found Ji Ling's whereabouts, but Cang Lan's reincarnation is hard to find. The Temple of Divine Names no longer has the name Cang Lan; she's probably just an ordinary human now, and I don't know her specific name.]
Mu Tiantian: [Let's find them one by one. Where is Ji Ling now?]
System: [He is in the underworld, but his exact location cannot be detected unless he is very close to you.]
Mu Tiantian: [Then I can only wait for him to come to me, but why is he in the Underworld?]
System: [The specific reason is unknown. We'll have to wait until we encounter him to see if we can update the database. Or, why don't you try breaking the chain and escaping to find him?]
Mu Tiantian: [My intuition tells me that your method isn't very appropriate. I'm afraid if I really escape, Cang... Ming Cang's hatred level will skyrocket, which would be a net loss. Also, last time you made me change my face, but it turned out to be a complete waste; I couldn't fool anyone.]
System: [Who knew these two were both so cunning?]
Mu Tiantian: [By the way, why was Canglan's name crossed out by the Temple of Divine Names?]
System: [Her divine power has almost completely dissipated; she is no longer a god, which is why the Temple of Divine Names crossed out her name. However, this has no impact on her.]
Mu Tiantian: [What about Ming Cang?]
System: [According to world data, the god who has fallen into demonic possession has had his name crossed out by the Temple of Divine Names. From now on, whenever someone utters the name Cang Yan to him, his internal organs will suffer excruciating pain, as if struck by lightning. He will experience the same pain when he utters those two words himself. This is the Temple of Divine Names' punishment for him.]
Mu Tiantian recalled what he said to her when they met again: "There is no more Cang Yan in the world."
Was he suffering excruciating pain at the time, as if his internal organs had been struck by lightning?
He even lost his own name, and he had no further connection with the celestial deities.
Mu Tiantian felt a pang of pain in her heart at this thought.
System: [I have detected Ji Ling. He is in the Demon Palace.]
Mu Tiantian: [Where is the Demon Palace?]
System: [In the Demon Palace, it seems they are discussing something with Ming Cang.]
...
Inside the Demon Palace's main hall.
A handsome young man dressed in plain white stood beside Ming Cang and reported, "Demon Lord, Demon Lord Mu Yexuan has mobilized all the demons of the demon race to search for the rabbit demon Mu Tiantian. They are about to capture her at the Mingyin Mountain Range, and have already sent demons to negotiate, wanting to conduct a search within the demon race."
