Demon Realm 1199

ent limp on the ground, and I only came out to see what was happening here. It's just that when I suddenly saw that little ghost's eyes emitting black air, I interrupted it.“Don’t be afraid, I’m here....When Mu Wanchen speaks to me, his eyes and tone are both very serious, making my face flush and my heart beat faster.

He is usually quite taciturn, and when he does speak, his vows are as heavy as mountains. I don't believe for a moment that they are devoid of insincerity.

If he were insincere, he wouldn't even bother making a promise.

Hearing that he was going back with me, I couldn't help but lower my head and smile.

"What are you laughing at" he reached out and put his hand on my shoulder.

"I thought you didn't want to go back." I said bluntly.

Here is the witch clan's "Gui Xu", Gui, refers to their origin, and they lived here with their ancestors. This is their pure land; Xu, an abandoned city once inhabited by people, meaning this is their homeland.

"Are those who came with you still alive" I asked.

"...some died, and during the crossing, some were swept away by hidden currents to who knows where... perhaps dragged into an endless abyss."

He frowned slightly and sighed, "The shamans felt the change in heaven and earth, the formation was turbulent. This is the first time in many years that a large number of mortals have passed through here, so it alarmed them. The venomous gu on me is too small to carry so many people across the sea. It was the beasts sent by the shamans that helped transport most of them here."

"Hmph... Who told you not to bring me A female gu is much bigger than a male one!"

"Well, it's much larger, not even in the same league... In the end, the male gu will transform into an inner elixir to nourish the female gu... By then, Little Princess Consort, you won't have to worry about lacking mana to use those talisman charms." Mu Wanchen reached out and combed my hair.

His long, strong fingers gently stroked my scalp, parting my hair and smoothing down the unruly strands.

Such a peaceful and pleasant companionship made me feel like I could pour out all the things that had been troubling me lately. I told him how flustered, confused, and helpless I felt, how I was being pushed around and misunderstood, even blamed...

He smiled faintly as he listened to me speak, finally adding, “Do you still think these things are a problem now”

I frowned. "What do you mean"

"Little Lu'er, no matter how many difficulties there are, when you look back, they will only be stories. That's how I got here."

He touched my head, his eyes flashing with determination: "I've been tracking the ghost realm for a long time, and I've probably figured out the pattern of mirages appearing. And recently, I noticed that the stars here are a bit unusual..."

"How is this unusual" The celestial bodies here should run according to the same laws as our world, right

Even in a parallel world, the universe would still be parallel, right

"Can astrology really predict things in the world" I'm a little skeptical.

"That's an ancient observation method. To put it simply, the changes in celestial bodies affect the aura, everything on earth - land, water, fire, and wind are all influenced. So it's not entirely superstition." Mu Wanchen frowned slightly.

"What did you observe"

"...I can't say for now, I'll tell you when I'm sure. It will happen soon anyway—" He suddenly stopped, and covered my lips with his hand.

The bamboo grove outside made a soft rustling sound.

Rustling... Rustling...

Something seemed to brush past the bamboo leaves.

Shhh...

Mu Wanchen made a mouth shape at me.

I understand what he means. He wants me to keep my mouth shut no matter what I see.

"Master~~~" a sharp, high-pitched voice rang out from outside.

Mu Wanchen frowned and replied, "Speak."

"Hee hee hee... Master~~~ There's been a commotion in the city, it seems like one of your guests~~~~"

This voice sounds so unpleasant, like it's speaking with a strangled and pinched nose.

"Understood," Mu Wanchen glanced at me, and I bit my lip without making a sound.

Who is this outside My skin is crawling, I can't help it. There isn't much of a spooky vibe, so it probably isn't a ghost

But there are many mountain goblins, tree monsters, and demons here. I absolutely wouldn't stay here alone.

The door suddenly flew open, a pair of white hands braced against the frame, fingers and nails grotesquely long.

Next, a head of white hair and half a face turned white appeared.

That face had a pair of narrow, slanted eyes like an inverted "eight".

It's scary how it grew like this, it looks like an animal's incarnation.

Mu Wanchen frowned unpleasantly: "What are you doing here"

"Woooo... This slave wants to see the young princess..." This strange man had a sharp, pitiful voice.

Those small eyes stared at me relentlessly.

"You should stay away from the Empress, don't disturb her aura." Mu Wanchen rebuked.

"Waaaaah...This servant doesn't dare to come in... Master is so cruel..."

Oh my, what kind of fairy is this Her voice truly makes my heart race.

Mu Wanchen held my hand, hesitated for a moment, and said to me, "Let's go back to the city together. I wouldn't feel at ease leaving you there. It's better if you stay where I can see you."

I can't bear it, I don't want to be alone here.

That city, bathed in the morning light, was much larger than I imagined. Its buildings were incredibly ancient, giving the impression of thousands of years of history. They were constructed from a mixture of earth and wood, typically two stories high, but when viewed as a whole across the city, they were quite magnificent.

The heart of the city was the inner city, encircled by a moat and walls. Inside were palaces constructed of massive stone and timber, bearing a sense of ancient grandeur and solidity.

When Mu Wanchen hugged me and landed on the city wall, the "fairy" following us also came down.

She should be a woman, slender and stooped, wearing a plain white robe, with a long trailing piece of fabric at the back.

Just now, her robe brushed past the bamboo grove, creating a rustling sound.

She always held her hand up, covering her mouth and nose with her sleeve.

"Little Princess~~~ You see what your servant is doing If you have anything, just give orders... Your servant is here to help the master with chores..." she said in a sharp and shrill voice.

I shook my head, saying nothing.

“Hee hee hee… hee hee hee…” she cackled.

That's so cool.

I'm not scolding her.

There's a real scent about her.

Upon entering, she was seen carrying a pouch filled with herbs, used to mask her scent.

I suspect she's a fox spirit, or something like that.

In a corner of the city, smoke billowed. Luohu Xingjun stood on the archway, below which were citizens with bows drawn, fearfully keeping their distance.

"Xingjun," Mu Wanchen frowned, shaking his head slightly, gesturing for him to not make a big commotion.

The Luo Hou Star Jun is a rather self-centered celestial being. He dislikes being told what to do.

“These fools think that I, Lord Rahu, have taken your palace and merely punished them.”

"Hmph, this Star Monarch wouldn't look upon something as crude as brick and mortar!"

I whispered, "Lord Luohou, please calm down. Lord Jiudou doesn't even know where he is suffering right now, probably not even a single brick or tile to his name! Let's keep a low profile and figure out how to get him back..."

As soon as these words left his mouth, Lord Luo Hu's brow twitched. He let out a cold snort and said to Mu Wanchen, "What's your plan Just spit it out. This Star Lord can't leave the palace for too long. With the solar and lunar eclipses absent, the divine energy is out of place. If this continues for too long, the aura will become chaotic and cause unforeseen consequences."there are tens of thousands of little devils like you in the Underworld. Eating one or two, what's there to cry about."I watched this man with fluctuating moods, too afraid to speak another word.After...
