Chapter 984 Demon God Valley
Ye Xiaoman skipped towards Yue Mushan. She was very happy to wear the beautiful new clothes. The bell on her small bag rang as she moved, and the sound was as joyful as her mood.
She held Jing Zhui in one hand and Yue Mushan in the other, and said impatiently, "Let's go out and play."
At the door of the Demon King's residence, Ye Xiaoman saw that a guard team was already waiting with a colorful sedan chair. The sedan chair was woven with all kinds of colorful flowers. It was not big and could only seat two people.
Yue Mushan helped Ye Xiaoman get into the beautiful sedan chair surrounded by flowers. He then sat beside Ye Xiaoman and said innocently to Jing Zhui, who was standing aside and unable to get in:
"The space is small, so I'll go with my sister to the parade first. I think my brother won't be mad at me, right?"
After that, the escort team of more than a hundred people played music with instruments unique to the demon world and set off in a lively manner.
Jing Zhui's expression couldn't be seen clearly because he was wearing a mask. Ye Xiaoman saw him walking closely beside her. She touched his long silver hair on his shoulder. Jing Zhui leaned over and touched the back of her hand with the mask.
Ye Xiaoman saw that Jing Zhui didn't seem angry and there was no possibility that he would suddenly draw his sword and kill everyone, so she felt relieved.
She had no time to worry about Jing Zhui next, so the parade was too much fun.
After leaving the place where the Demon King lived, they came to the streets outside the royal city, which were connected in all directions. The crowds immediately increased.
The streets and alleys of the demon world are also very original, with green trees, plants and flowers. Taverns and restaurants are built in the form of tree houses between the big trees, decorated with sparkling gems and magic effects.
Various demon pets and furry creatures that cannot transform are running on the streets and flying in the sky.
During the Holy Moon Festival, the roads were crowded with demon cultivators who came out to celebrate.
No demon cultivator stayed home; everyone would come out with food and drinks, reveling in the revelry, singing and dancing. After the moon rose, the festival would officially begin, with performances from all corners of the country, large-scale ceremonies to honor the Moon God and the Demon God, and even a fireworks display.
The Demon King is very approachable. His sedan chair is not extravagant when he travels, and he will not drive away pedestrians on the road.
When Yue Mushan appeared in a sedan chair with Ye Xiaoman, cheers broke out among the demon cultivators. All the demon king's guards automatically stepped aside. Countless flowers and ribbons fell from the sky, landing on Ye Xiaoman's head and clothes.
"Look, it's the Demon King."
"And the Nameless Sword Master."
The people were very happy to see that Ye Xiaoman and Yue Mushan were not imprisoned by Jing Zhui as the rumors said, and they chased the sedan chair happily.
"Fairy Ye, we all love you——"
Ye Xiaoman's arms were stuffed with flowers and her hands were filled with food. She was surrounded by all kinds of plush stuff, some to eat and some to play with. She was so happy that she was going crazy.
Holding hands, she and Yue Mushan stood up from the seats of the sedan chair and danced with the demon cultivators accompanied by singing and music in the streets.
Ye Xiaoman followed Yue Mushan around the city, and finally they climbed up the ancient altar together to accept congratulations from all the families and subjects in the demon world. It was almost dusk, and the moon began to appear on the top of the mountain. Ye Xiaoman and Yue Mushan lit a salute together.
The fireworks shot up into the sky and bloomed brilliantly, announcing the start of the Holy Moon Festival.
Yue Mushan then rushed to the Demon God Valley to participate in the trial of the Demon God.
Along the way, Yue Mushan told Ye Xiaoman that the passage of time in the Demon God Valley was different from that in the outside world. They would spend about ten days in the Demon God Valley, but in the eyes of people outside, they had only been in there for a day and a night.
"After we came out, we calculated the time and found that the brothers from the God Realm had also rushed to the Demon Realm."
Ye Xiaoman thought, it shouldn’t be too lively then.
The sedan chair moved forward quickly. Ye Xiaoman found that as the moon rose, the atmosphere in the streets and alleys became more lively, and a smell like the fragrance of flowers and meat floated in the air.
The little demons were gathered together for a feast, and the ones that appeared on the streets were all adult demons.
They danced and sang around the bonfire, hugged and kissed each other unrestrainedly, and then held hands and walked into the dark woods or behind the weeds...
Ye Xiaoman: “?”
She finally understood what Aunt Luan meant when she said, "Festivals in our demon world are also very passionate and unrestrained."
Ye Xiaoman inhaled the smoke in the air and couldn't help feeling a little dazed. To be more specific, she felt like shivering.
Looking at Yue Muchan again, her cheeks were also rosy and her eyes were blurred.
Ye Xiaoman thought that this was not possible, as they had to do serious business tonight.
Fortunately, the sedan moved quickly and soon moved away from the blocks and headed to an uninhabited area deep in the forest.
The guards put Ye Xiaoman and Yue Mushan down, pointed to the misty valley ahead, and told them, "Master Demon King, Fairy Ye, just a little further ahead, you will reach the Demon God Valley."
Ye Xiaoman forced herself to calm down. She released her spiritual sense to look around and found that this place was not too far from the Demon King's residence. She could vaguely see the top of the sacred tree.
In the valley, there are also many giant trees that block out the sun like sacred trees. One can feel the incomparable vitality and awe-inspiring majesty.
No matter how powerful a demon is, it is just a weak cub in front of these ancient creatures.
Yue Mushan's cat ears stood up and his big tail was tense. With the test approaching, he was a little nervous, worried that he would not be able to obtain a powerful true taboo as his parents and people expected.
"Sister, let's go."
Yue Mushan held Ye Xiaoman's hand and felt a surge of courage.
He glanced at Jing Zhui who had followed them. Jing Zhui remained calm in the face of such powerful force, and instead exuded an aura that could rival it.
Yue Mushan remembered his oath and he also wanted to become strong enough to protect Ye Xiaoman.
Yue Mushan's gaze became firm.
He and Ye Xiaoman successfully entered the barrier of the Demon God Valley, but Jing Zhui did not meet the requirements and was stopped outside.
Ye Xiaoman promised that she would continue to use telepathy to contact Jing Zhui after entering, and this persuaded Jing Zhui to wait for them outside.
The Demon God Valley looks like a forest, with tree roots tangled on the ground and fallen leaves piled on the green moss. The moonlight is blocked by the thick treetops, and you can't see your hand in front of you.
Ye Xiaoman and Yue Mushan activated the lighting lamp, holding it in their hands as they walked. The light could only illuminate the area three steps ahead.
Aunt Luan didn't elaborate on what would happen once one entered the Demon God Valley. She only said that each demon would see different scenery after entering due to their different status and life experiences.
Ye Xiaoman guessed that this was probably an illusion created by the mind, and said with a smile, "Amu, so your inner world is a vast forest?"
Yue Mushan beside him did not answer.
Ye Xiaoman looked down and saw that she was originally walking hand in hand with Yue Mushan, but now she was holding a dry vine in her palm.
Yue Mushan disappeared.
