Chapter 178 It's time to leave the Demon Palace
After lunch, and then being inexplicably dragged to bed and wasted an afternoon, evening, and morning, which added up to a whole day, Su Yu felt she couldn't take it anymore.
This is no longer a matter of never having lived such a shameful life; it's a matter of having such high cultivation that one can't even faint if they want to.
So he decided to find a way to make Feng Huaijin more detached from worldly desires.
Work makes the demon calm.
At least this afternoon can be spent working instead of something else.
Su Yu and Feng Huaijin each had a small table, sitting close together in their bedroom, handling their respective official duties.
Official business of the Demon Palace is usually sent to the study in the side hall of the main hall. During this period, Feng Huaijin brought these documents to the bedroom to handle them.
Su Yu had previously reminded him to make some preparations for dealing with the spirit world, and he naturally did so, adding another stack of documents to his collection.
There are also matters of espionage.
Most of the pawns Wei Lan had previously left in the Spirit Realm had been given secret medicine and were no longer usable. In order to obtain information about the Spirit Realm, he naturally needed to send in a few spies, as well as contact the spies left behind by the various Demon Lords who were not loyal to Wei Lan.
Although the two realms do not interact, it is impossible for them not to pay attention to each other's movements. Planting spies is a tacit agreement between the two sides.
However, Wei Lan turned spies into the vanguard of invasion, and the spirit world would not tolerate such people or demons.
The Ghost Market residents were used to their Ghost Lord traveling around, so they had long ago started using teleportation arrays to send documents to Su Yu, ensuring he could receive them no matter where he went.
Su Yu commented: "As expected of someone whose name contains the character for 'ghost,' it really seems like they're being haunted by a ghost."
However, a message from the Ghost Market in the Spirit Realm coincided with the message from You Fujun's side.
It was an espionage incident involving the three sects of the Upper Spirit Realm.
The opening time of the Luo Die Secret Realm has ended, and all the disciples and cultivators have left the secret realm with many gains. However, what has attracted the most attention from the upper echelons of the three sects is the spy from the three sects who was captured by the disciples of the three sects.
Aside from a few demons disguised as humans, many of these spies were actually volunteers!
The top officials were naturally furious and ordered a thorough investigation.
To find the spies still hiding, besides possessing demonic energy, they also need extraordinary mental strength, which is the result of that secret medicine.
The leader of the Ghost Market asked if they wanted to thoroughly investigate the secret medicine and take it for their own use.
Su Yu directly replied that it was not necessary.
What good stuff could be given away so generously by Wei Lan? It might even have some serious side effects.
Yu Fujun shared that when the disciples exposed the spy, their promotion value increased slightly, suggesting that having more people participate in the main storyline would be effective.
Su Yu noted this down and then asked Feng Huaijin, "Twelve, do you know about the secret medicine that Wei Lan used?"
"A secret medicine?" Feng Huaijin stopped writing, recalled for a moment, and then answered seriously, "There is such a thing. That secret medicine was made by him using his own divine sense, mixed with the divine souls of ordinary demons and humans that he captured. It has the effect of expanding the sea of consciousness and enhancing divine sense."
"However, the side effects are also quite severe. If the user does not obey his orders or does not obtain the temporary antidote in time, their consciousness will suffer unbearable pain. If the antidote is not taken regularly, the user will only have a lifespan of a little over a year at most."
Su Yu raised an eyebrow: "You seem to know quite a lot."
Feng Huaijin smiled and said, "Yes, back then, we saw that some of the demons in the Demon Palace had abnormally strong consciousness, and we thought they were some good things. But when we found out, we found out they were just scum."
"The remaining secret medicines in the Demon Palace have all been destroyed, but there are still some antidotes left. Why are you suddenly asking about this, brother?"
Su Yu pointed at the document in front of her with her fingertip and said, "There are similar things in the Spirit Realm as well. Ayao and the others are looking into it."
Feng Huaijin leaned closer and skillfully put his arm around Su Yu's waist: "So, what does brother plan to do?"
"Of course, let them investigate; we don't need to get involved."
“Okay.” Feng Huaijin naturally agreed, but his hands started to get restless again, trying to slip inside his clothes.
Then he was suppressed by his elder brother.
"Go and handle your official business. You're not allowed to think about these things during work hours, or it will cause problems."
"Also, you're not allowed in bed tonight."
Feng Huaijin sighed: "Okay, brother."
If tonight doesn't work, then tomorrow morning will do. I can take care of everything tomorrow tonight.
After another ten days or so of this harmonious and affectionate relationship, it has now been a full month.
Despite his reluctance, Feng Huaijin silently removed the anklet from Su Yu's ankle.
This is something he wants to keep; he can't let his brother violently break free and destroy it.
In fact, he knew many other tricks. In his previous life, he lived a long life and saw a lot of things, but he died alone. In this life, after developing feelings for his brother, he wanted to make his brother comfortable, so he secretly learned a lot of tricks.
They possess a wealth of theoretical knowledge.
However, his older brother was too easily embarrassed, and he was worried that his brother would get angry and embarrassed, and he was also afraid of ruining his image in front of his brother, so he dared not bring it up rashly.
Although his brother now thinks he's weird enough.
Su Yu never saw the gold chain again. Although she had a vague idea of what it was, she pretended not to know anything and didn't ask a single question.
It was too perverted; he was too ashamed to talk about it.
He truly didn't know why his normally raised child would grow up to look so abnormal.
After the chains were removed, Feng Huaijin hugged Su Yu more affectionately than usual, and asked in his ear, "Brother, are you leaving already? Where are you going? Are you going to the Spirit Realm to see our sister and parents? I should go with you, right? I've prepared all my gifts."
Su Yu chuckled and said, "I have important business to attend to, so I won't be going to the Spirit Realm for the time being."
Feng Huaijin immediately said, "I'll go with my brother, but please take me with you."
"Take you with me—" Su Yu drawled, feigning hesitation, as if the next sentence would be a refusal.
Feng Huaijin sat up straight, staring intently at him.
"Okay, then I'll take you with me." Su Yu smiled, but she didn't want to pretend for too long.
The young demon holding him immediately gave him a light kiss on the face: "Then I'll go pack my things, brother, wait for me a moment, I'll be done soon."
While waiting, Su Yu checked the current status of the upgrade value again.
Although he stayed in the Demon Palace for the past month without moving, You Fujun had already started making moves.
After all, the two of them ran away on the first day the Luo Die Secret Realm opened. In order not to be discovered by their teachers, You Fujun simply took Su Yao to another secret realm in the story where Su Yao was given high-level spiritual fire.
When the time comes, we'll tell our superiors that they accidentally triggered the teleportation array in the Luo Die Secret Realm and were thus transported to this secret realm.
After the secret realm opened, it attracted many forces from all sides, some hostile and some allied. The two of them played a game of alliances and counter-alliances in the secret realm, attracting many people to enter and increasing their upgrade value by a lot.
He also offended quite a few people.
After Su Yao subdued the spirit fire, she was targeted by those powerful but unfortunately defeated individuals in the secret realm.
So they are currently being hunted down.
Both of them had their own plans.
Su Yao planned to shift the blame to the newly discovered demon spies. She already knew that Su Yu had no connection with these spies and would not hold back.
