Chapter 108: Tricked by the White-haired Loli Again!
Chapter 108: Tricked by the White-haired Loli Again!
Everything became clear in an instant.
The courtesan who had appeared before Luo Wusheng previously had already displayed several unique traits in front of him.
Her captivating zither playing that both enchanted and brought clarity to the mind made him suspect her identity.
When the Demonic Artifact Pavilion opened and the Ten-Li Qin Melody was transmitted, Luo Wusheng confirmed that she was not an ordinary person.
Later, during their conversation in the mansion's hall, her words and the emotions revealed by the mind-reading pearls made him question her identity.
However, at that time, all he could think about was whether she was the Empress of the mortal realm.
Now, the truth was finally revealed, bringing both good and bad news.
The bad news was that she was indeed not the Empress of the mortal realm, and he still had no connection with the Empress.
As for the good news
Yes, he had unintentionally achieved the ultimate achievement of gaining favor with the Demon Empress.
He felt a somewhat inexplicable sense of unreality.
The formidable Demon Empress, the peak cultivation leader of the demonic race, turned out to be a mere flower courtesan playing the zither in a human kingdom's brothel?
And he had coincidentally encountered her?
(It's highly likely that Yao Ji is the external incarnation formed by a special method during the Demon Empress's suppression)
And the name Yao Ji was certainly not the true name of the Demon Empress.
Hold on a second, Yao Ji?
The original work did mention that some tribes in the demon realm referred to the Demon Empress as Yao Ji
(So this name is really her true name and has nothing to do with Ji Yanyao? Her name and the Demon empress both just coincidentally have Ji in it?)
Wordplay can be costly!
Luo Wusheng secretly mocked himself.
But after sorting out all these things, he felt much more at ease.
Although his previous efforts didn't gain favor with the Empress, from the way the Demon Empress treated him as Yao Ji, she seemed to be having some favorable impression with him, right?
Furthermore, he had accidentally found himself in a key position to rescue her tonight by hitching a ride on Yue Xuanji's efforts
Looking at it this way, it wasn't impossible to bring this powerful little fox to his side, was it?
In his mind, an image floated up.
One year later, during the turmoil of the Demon Sect, Buddhist chants resounded in the sky, and a giant Buddha's palm descended to suppress him, the Demon Sec's disciple, into ashes.
But just then, a fox tail swung over and instantly shattered the palm's divine power.
The Demon Empress, with nine tails, protected him behind her. Her eyes were sharp like a ruler, and with a wave of her hand, a multitude of demons appeared, confronting the Buddhists.
She expressed only one thingthis Demon Sect disciple was her friend
(Well this scene is unlikely to happen. Even if we were friends, it shouldn't make the leader of the demonic race act like that)
But people always have their fantasies.
Just like how he knew in his heart that the Demon Empress probably wanted to gain the affection of Little Yuli, he couldn't help but imagine some plot where the overbearing Demon Empress fell in love with him.
If he could really tie himself to such a powerful ally as the Demon Empress, what did he have to fear from the Buddhist sect?
Even if the Purging Demon started, wouldn't those bald donkeys still have the strength to come and purge the demons next?
"After this, as long as I give myself time and use my talents, after a hundred or a thousand years, can't I easily manipulate these bald donkeys in the Buddhist sect? By then, with my great supernatural powers, I'll make sure they can never shave their heads again, and I'll throw each one of them into my Demon Sect's domain to work them like exhausted oxen, breaking their Buddhist rules and shattering their Buddhist hearts, never to become monks again!
Thinking of this, Luo Wusheng couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.
(Ah, I want a day when nothing can hide from my eyes~ I want this land where nothing can bury my heart~ I want those bald donkeys from the Buddhist sect to disappear like smoke and dissipate like clouds~)
Marvelous!
Securing the small storage bag containing the little fox Demon Empress at his waist, Luo Wusheng's mood relaxed considerably.
Tonight's various accidents finally concluded successfully.
The conspiracy of the new lord of the demon race was resolved by the celestial realm without much difference from the original story, and the Demon Empress was successfully rescued at least the outcome should remain unchanged.
Moreover, he finally learned the true identity of Yao Ji, confirmed that he had developed some goodwill towards the Demon Empress, and felt more confident in her character, hoping to gain her assistance.
The only regret, perhaps, was that he didn't actually find the mortal body of the Immortal Nation.
But that didn't matter now.
After all, it was highly likely that the day he would meet the empress in her imperial form was not far off, and then he could simply improve her favorability by directly impressing her in that form.
Thinking of this, Luo Wusheng couldn't help but hum a popular tune from his previous life.
Since there was no one around, he didn't need to maintain the persona of the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect all the time, so he could relax on his way home relax?
His humming came to a stop.
Because right in front of him, a cold and elegant figure slowly appeared.
A mask with a pattern of scales, a figure that should be beautiful but was hidden by a bound chest and red clothes
The identity of the person was already evident.
A Golden Ranked member of the Six Gate Bureau, Kirin.
At this moment, in the wilderness, the two found themselves in a somewhat awkward silence, facing each other as a man and a woman.
"Didn't expect the Lord Luo to have some talent in music," Miss Kirin said, trying to break the ice.
However, Luo Wusheng's face showed a hint of embarrassment upon hearing her words.
His identity as the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect
"Cough, why would Miss Kirin be in this place?" Helpless, Luo Wusheng had to break the awkward atmosphere.
"I'm responsible for guarding this area because there were some accidents at the Ascending Immortality Lake," Miss Kirin replied.
As she spoke, she looked at Luo Wusheng with a hint of suspicion, "But how come Lord Luo is in this place?"
She couldn't help but recall the scene where Luo Wusheng hurriedly left earlier.
There seemed to be some speculation in her mind.
Could it be
And Luo Wusheng on the other side naturally noticed the slight doubt in her eyes.
So, he fell silent.
Why was he here?
The first thing that came to mind was the white-haired loli who claimed to be able to predict everything.
Was this teleportation deliberately arranged?
He suspected that he had been tricked by Yue Xuanji, but he had no evidence.
Looking up at Miss Kirin, who seemed to be getting wary, he couldn't help but think, this is like when I just escaped from prison and collided with the prison warden while still in disguise as an escaped prisoner
One wrong word and he could be in trouble.
Violently breaking through was definitely not an option. He still had to live in the capital city and might even meet the empress.
Moreover, the other party's fist was clearly bigger than his own, and the Demon Empress with an even bigger fist was still asleep
(I must act more naturally make good use of the persona I established before)"
Luo Wusheng's face calmed down, revealing a profound and unpredictable smile.
"The Demon Empress was being rescued by the demon race, such a significant event, as someone who reside in the capital city, how could I not come to investigate the matter?"
