"What does the Demon Realm look like?"
Cen Ji looked at Yan Ying with a smile. "I'll take you to see it."
"I can't..."
Yan Ying wanted to say that she couldn't leave the sect, but before she could finish her words, she was pulled into Cen Ji's arms.
All she could see was the golden threads on Cen Ji's chest.
His chest was a little hard, but exceptionally warm.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them arrived at the Demon Realm.
Yan Ying looked at the long street in front of her that stretched as far as the eye could see and was a little surprised for a moment.
"This is the holy city in the center of the Demon Realm's City of No Return." Cen Ji said softly, holding Yan Ying's hand.
He felt a happiness he had never felt before at this moment. It was like he had suddenly obtained something he had liked for a long time.
He carries with him nostalgia for the past and infinite longing for the future.
The person he loves is right in front of him.
The territory they stepped on was the one he guarded.
"Holy City..." Yan Ying looked around at the prosperous scene in front of her.
In her imagination, the Demon Realm should be an endless desert and wilderness...
How can it be so prosperous?
Cen Ji looked at Yan Ying's expression, understood her thoughts, and smiled gently. "The reason Jiuzhou and the Demon Realm can stay out of each other's way is that the Demon Realm must be developing and gaining strength."
"Not only now, the Demon Realm will surpass the Holy City in the future." Cen Ji looked at the magnificent scenery of the Holy City with a glimmer of longing in his eyes.
Yan Ying turned to look at Cen Ji. She could see Cen Ji's confidence and expectations for the future.
"Little boy, I think..." Cen Ji lowered his eyes and held Yan Ying's hand tightly.
He wanted to marry her and let her witness the glory of the Demon Realm with him.
They were already of marriageable age, but after seven years of separation, they had just met each other, and he felt that it was inappropriate to say this.
He needed to give her time to adapt to his current self. He couldn't be so impatient...
"What are you thinking about?" Yan Ying asked.
Why haven't you gotten rid of your bad habit of being quiet? You keep half of what you say and half of what you say...
"I want you to accompany me." Cen Ji smiled gently and took Yan Ying for a stroll on the long street.
Cen Ji rarely shows up in public, and the people of the Demon Realm don’t know that he is their lord.
The ground in front of me was covered with dark blue stone bricks, the dark red courtyard walls on the street were covered with totems, and the pavilions high above my head were hung with red silk cloth that spread across the entire street.
"Then...it depends on your performance." Yan Ying pursed her lips and smiled.
"Okay." Cen Ji responded quickly.
"I can't leave the sect for too long. Master won't let me go down the mountain." Yan Ying suddenly remembered that if Master returned to the sect and found her not there...
"What danger can there be in being with me? I will send you back safely." Cen Ji said softly.
He made up some lies seven years ago in order to get Ning Hai to protect the little ghost.
Don't let her know about that...
"Master should not be here today, and Second Brother has also gone down the mountain, so no one will look for me..." Yan Ying's expression suddenly became a little lonely.
In the past, when no one was with her, Wu Bai would go to find her and tell her all the interesting things she heard. But now... no one should go to find her.
"Wu Lin..." Cen Ji easily noticed Yan Ying's change of mood. "He probably won't return to Yun Sect."
"But if you want to see him, I can take you to him."
Yan Ying was puzzled. "Why? He didn't return to the sect. Where did he go?"
"In Qingshu Pavilion." Cen Ji replied.
Now that Wu Xun is dead, Wu Lin will naturally go to Qingshu Pavilion to take charge of the situation. Since he has entered Qingshu Pavilion, he will definitely not return to Guiyun Sect.
"Qingshu Pavilion?" Yan Ying had heard of Qingshu Pavilion.
"His elder sister was the head of Qingshu Pavilion. Now that his elder sister has passed away, he has returned to Qingshu Pavilion to take over." Cen Ji explained softly.
"Why haven't I heard Second Brother mention it..." Yan Ying frowned.
As for the Guiyun Sect, Cen Ji actually knew more than she did...
"In other words, he will be the head of Qingshu Pavilion in the future..." Yan Ying sighed softly. "If that's the case, he shouldn't be returning to the sect."
How could so many things happen in just one day?
Wu Bai was murdered, and the head of Qingshu Pavilion was also...
"How did Second Senior Brother's elder sister die?" Yan Ying looked up at Cen Ji in confusion.
Cen Ji blinked and said nonchalantly, "I killed him."
"What?" Yan Ying stopped and looked at Cen Ji in horror.
"The assassinations you encountered before were all carried out by Qingshu Pavilion. The Pavilion Master Wu Xun wanted Qingshu Pavilion to replace Guiyun Sect in the sect."
"You are the trump card that Guiyun Sect holds to turn things around in the sect competition. In order for her plan to proceed smoothly, so..." Cen Ji looked at Yan Ying and explained patiently.
He knew that Xiao Gui was kind, and she might blame him for being impulsive, but he could not tolerate anyone threatening her life.
"About killing Wu Xun..." Cen Ji wanted to continue explaining, but was interrupted by Yan Ying.
"Well done." Yan Ying said as she held Cen Ji's hand and continued shopping.
"What? Don't you blame me?" Cen Ji asked in surprise, chasing after Yan Ying.
"Why should I blame you?" Yan Ying asked doubtfully. "She wants to kill me, why should I pity her?"
"Besides, her people almost hurt Xiao Si. Even if you don't kill her, I won't spare her."
Cen Ji raised the corners of his mouth, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and held Yan Ying's hand instead. Feeling that it was not enough, he climbed up her arm with his other hand and strolled along the street with her in his arm.
