Chapter 706: It’s Time to Say Goodbye (5)



"I don't like lotus root."

More importantly, if you eat the lotus root, the lotus seeds will not grow.

Jiuxi opened the lotus pod, poured the lotus seeds into the palm of his hand, and stuffed them all into his mouth. It tasted a little bitter, but fortunately it was rich and fragrant, which was not bad.

The herring's head surfaced, and it asked hesitantly, "Your Majesty, why did you come to West Lake?"

Jiuxi tilted his head and uttered words slowly and calmly, "Live a good life as a fish. Thinking too much will make you age prematurely."

herring:"...."

Silver carp: “…”

The remaining fish were all bewildered, and after a while, they sank into the water. This was because they had been chatting with their fish friends for so many years, and now that the demon king had finally arrived, they were just teasing him!

Peace seemed to have returned. Jiuxi rested her hands on the boat, gazing at the Leifeng Pagoda in the distance. It looked very blurry amid the clouds, and it seemed that her sleepiness was slowly fading away. She scratched her hair and stood up unsteadily. Just as she picked up the oar and was about to row, she saw a pleasure boat coming from the distance. The dancer on the bow was dancing enchantingly, charmingly, and the sound of a pipa came out from the distance. Jiuxi blinked and urged the boat to avoid the pleasure boat.

But what surprised Jiuxi even more was that the pleasure boat suddenly stopped, and the dancers on the boat also stopped at that moment, shyly entering the cabin. The depressed Hua Yinluo emerged again, "Your Majesty, look at how impressive the emperors of the mortal world are when they travel! They are accompanied by beautiful women and musicians. And look at you, such a small broken boat, it will capsize in a strong wind!"

Jiuxi remained silent, but stretched out his hand. Two fingers formed into hooks, and the silver carp, with only half of its head exposed, was pulled out of the water. Its body kept struggling in the air, "Your Majesty, are you still not allowing me to tell the truth?"

The silver carp expressed dissatisfaction, opened its mouth, and a stream of water rushed straight to Jiuxi's face. A few strands of silver threads also stuck to Jiuxi's cheeks. She exerted force in her hands and threw the silver carp in a parabola. Then, white crystal water splashed up, and the silver carp was thrown into the water, its tail slapping the water surface.

Jiuxi said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kill you!"

Anyway, she hasn't eaten fish or meat for a long time.

She lay on the boat, feeling drowsy and sleepy, and fell asleep all of a sudden until night. When she woke up in a daze, red lanterns were already hanging on the Jiangnan pleasure boat. The warm yellow lights seemed to add a touch of embellishment to the dark night. She pressed her eyebrows and felt that this sleep was too long, and her body was very sore and weak.

She stood up and walked into the awning. Her feet seemed to be stuck and she couldn't move a step. She curled her lips and said, "Yuan Zidan?"

The Demon Lord coughed lightly, the curling tea mist blurring his features. A trace of confusion remained on his face, but it quickly faded. He said, "That person has been searching the world for you. Aren't you even slightly moved?"

Jiuxi frowned, "No."

"He finally recovered his memory..." The Demon Lord hesitated to speak.

Jiuxi bent down, sat down slowly, and said, "When I was young, I always thought that the future would be very long. But after so long, I realized that ordinary days are what I like."

She doesn't like killing or war at all.

It’s actually pretty good to be a demon peacefully.

A thousand years is really short compared to the time of demons, gods or immortals, but for humans, a thousand years is already several reincarnations.
