Chapter 129 Is Xiao Jing Really Crazy?
"Hush, you don't want to live anymore." Another guard interrupted hurriedly, and then whispered:
"If the Demon King finds out, you'll be executed. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Even though that man is dead, it's not something we can criticize."
The other one immediately expressed his gratitude and said a lot of flattering words.
The other was flattered and started to act like an old man again, speaking even more proudly: "You didn't know when you first arrived, but you will know later. The Demon King always sends the best herbs and flowers to the Demon Lord in order to make medicine for him. So, even though he is gone, he is the most honorable person in our entire Spirit Realm Continent."
"oh--"
After listening for a long time, Shen Wuyan still had no idea who they were talking about. His curiosity was aroused and the whole cat felt uncomfortable. It turned out that cats are the most curious creatures.
Since Xiao Jing has already returned to the Demon Realm, he might as well go to the Demon Realm to find Xiao Jing.
If Xiao Jing dared to treat him like Jiang Mian, humph, he would no longer be friends with him, Shen Wuyan thought so and started to hurry away.
His demonic powers were feeble, and he had to sleep in the open air, travel day and night, and it took him a month to reach the demon world. When he arrived at the demon world, the whole cat was extremely ferocious.
He almost became a little stray cat, with dirty hair.
After arriving in the demon world, he was afraid of being caught, but perhaps because his demonic power was too weak, the monks in the demon world looked down on him and treated him as just an ordinary stray cat.
So Shen Wuyan boldly toured the capital of the demon world and listened to many rumors about Xiao Jing.
Rumor has it that Demon Lord Xiao Jing is extremely frugal and lives in two simple wooden houses with flowers and plants from the world of immortal cultivation planted in front of the houses.
Those flowers and plants were extremely difficult to grow in the demon world. They died as they were planted, but the demon king still planted them tirelessly. A circle of weeping willows was planted around the garden, and a rocking chair was placed under the green willows, making it look like a paradise.
There are also rumors that Demon Lord Xiao Jing respected his master very much. Three years ago, when he and his fellow disciples joined forces to defeat the fake master who had seized his body, they deliberately did not harm the body of the Silent Immortal.
After that, Demon Lord Xiao Jing kept his master's body by his side and used a large amount of spiritual power to keep it from decaying. It was said that his purpose was to resurrect Immortal Lord Wuyan.
Only then did Shen Wuyan realize that the "that person" in the gossip he had heard before was himself.
There was a hint of sadness and also a hint of sweetness flowing through Shen Wuyan's heart.
Besides this, Shen Wuyan also heard a lot of gossips. In fact, the Immortal Master Wuyan was the Taoist partner of the Demon Master Xiao Jing, and they both had children. The Demon Master Xiao Jing could not accept the fact that his wife was taken away from him, and after failing to resurrect the Immortal Master Wuyan several times, he went crazy.
According to gossip, he would spend a lot of his energy every day to keep the body of the Silent Immortal Venerable from decaying. He would also personally wipe the body of the Silent Immortal Venerable, change his clothes, and then cook for him. The two of them would sit in the garden to eat like ordinary people, and every night he would fall asleep holding the body of the Silent Immortal Venerable.
Shen Wuyan: "..." Aren't you scared to sleep with a corpse in your arms?
Is Xiao Jing really crazy?
Shen Wuyan traveled around the capital of the Demon Realm and found that it was difficult to find Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing lives on the top of Flame Demon Mountain. At the foot of the mountain is the Demon Palace where he handles government affairs. If you want to go up the mountain, you must first enter the Demon Palace.
Hearing that Xiao Jing would go to the Demon Palace today, Shen Wuyan planned to try his luck.
Shen Wuyan searched around the Demon Palace and finally found a crooked tree.
He rubbed his fists and claws, stretched out his hind legs, and jumped onto the tree nimbly. Using his hands and claws, he climbed up in two or three steps.
As expected of a cat, climbing trees is its instinct.
The moment Shen Wuyan climbed up the tree, the tree shook and the leaves rustled as if being blown by the wind.
Shen Wuyan didn't think much about it, but was frightened the next second because Shu Qianshang, who was facing him, suddenly opened one eye.
He looked at Shen Wuyan seriously, probably because he felt that the little demon was too weak and it would be of no use to him if he ate it. The meat was too small to even fill the gaps between his teeth.
On the contrary, it felt itchy in a nice way. When the little thing was holding on to him and climbing up just now, his whole body felt comfortable.
Then another mouth appeared on the tree trunk, "Don't stop, keep catching."
Shen Wuyan: “…” He really didn’t realize that this tree was a demon tree.
And judging from the look of it, the evil tree probably thought he was ticklish.
His little claws tentatively scratched the trunk of the tree. The tree narrowed its eyes in comfort, and the whole tree trembled.
As long as you don't eat yourself, everything can be discussed.
Shen Wuyan stretched the magic tree until it was comfortable, and then faced the wall of the Demon Palace. He stretched out his hind legs and flew over into the air.
As the kitten jumped up, its paw broke a branch.
"Click——" Shen Wuyan raised his claws anxiously, hoping not to be discovered.
"Who are you? Come out." The patrolling demon soldier inside shouted.
What you fear will come true. Shen Wuyan lay on the wall, stretched his body, tilted his head and made an innocent sound: "Meow~"
The voice was thin and small, soft and soft, and seemed to have no offensive power at all.
"Hey, it's just a kitten, don't be nervous." Another patrol officer pushed the man forward and said, "Let's go and take a look ahead."
Shen Wuyan watched the two people leave, breathed a sigh of relief, and then jumped down from the wall. He tried his best to avoid the patrolmen and moved back and forth in the Demon Palace in a daze.
The place was too big and he couldn't find Xiao Jing after walking around for a long time.
Just when he was tired and hungry, his nose suddenly twitched and he smelled the sweet scent of freshly baked pastries.
It smells so good. I really want to eat it.
During the time he was a cat, he was too proud to rummage through garbage cans with other wild cats. He was also too picky to eat stinky mice. He wanted to eat grilled fish but didn't know how to catch it, so he could only eat wild fruits to fill his stomach.
It's really pitiful. He feels like he has lost a lot of weight.
He raised his little paws and rubbed his belly, then followed the scent.
A moment later, he saw it in the garden—himself.
Shen Wuyan, who only has a body but no soul.
He lay quietly in the rocking chair, wearing a moon-white robe, his hair combed neatly and wearing a hair crown.
He closed his eyes, his eyelashes were long and thick, and the sunlight fell on him, giving him a layer of warm halo.
This made him look like he was just asleep.
A big hand fell on his overly white cheek and rubbed it gently. The gentle movement was as if the cheek in his palm was a rare treasure.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely gentle voice fell into Shen Wuyan's ears.
"Master, how long are you going to sleep? Today I made your favorite cake. I made it myself. Don't you want to try it?"
The only answer he got was the gentle sound of the wind.
