Chapter 65: F*ck that!

You Zishu's hand, which was taking out the steaming buns from the storage bag, suddenly trembled. The spiritual power dissipated, and the buns rolled on the ground, turning black.

He stood up in astonishment, staring at Leng Mushi, his lips moved, but he didn't know what to say.

Leng Mushi smiled faintly, "Was it me who was being sentimental?"

Leng Mushi looked at the two buns on the ground and said, "It seems so."

You Zishu ignored the injury on his arm and turned to leave.

Leng Mushi pinched his arm, right on the wound, and then smiled at You Zishu, "Senior Brother, don't panic, I was just asking. I don't mean to force you."

You Zishu's face, which was always pale as death, was now covered with a blush as red as the sunset sky, extremely ashamed.

Leng Mushi's fingertips pressing on his wound relaxed slightly. He looked away, not daring to look at Leng Mushi, nor to face the turmoil in his heart.

He… was he?

He himself hadn't realized it yet, the feeling that hadn't even sprouted from the soil was kicked out of the soil by Leng Mushi's foot. You Zishu almost hated this arm of his and wanted to get rid of it.

Leng Mushi smiled gently, "Senior Brother, just treat it as my nonsense. The wound is bleeding again. Bleeding wounds are not easy to heal. Senior Brother, bandage it before you leave. The buns can't be eaten anymore, but I actually don't miss the buns from their shop that much."

She missed the person who ate buns with her.

You Zishu understood what she meant.

Bleeding wounds are not easy to heal… She deliberately pierced it ahead of time, making him embarrassed and cutting off the thoughts he hadn't even realized.

You Zishu stiffened his whole body and let Leng Mushi bandage his arm. He listened to Leng Mushi thank him for the things he brought for alchemy, and then ran away as if he were escaping.

Leng Mushi packed up the buns on the ground, walked out of the cave, went to the edge of the cliff, and threw the buns down to feed the demonic beasts she had been feeding recently.

A pair of vertical pupils emerged from under the cliff at this moment, looking at Leng Mushi and clicking his tongue, "If you ask me, this cultivator is much better than your man. He is always at the forefront of every battle with the demon race, capable, and calm in any dangerous situation."

Leng Mushi glanced at the man with vertical pupils. This man was the one she had released after Xiao Mian was taken away from the forbidden area. His name was Chi Yu, and he was now a favorite of the Demon Emperor.

She said, "Aren't you a red snake? Why do you always lie on the cliff? Do you think you are a gecko?"

Chi Yu jumped up from under the cliff and walked towards Leng Mushi. He didn't care that she was mocking him and said, "Although this cultivator looks a bit like a dead person, everyone dies sooner or later. It's good to get used to it in advance. Besides, when the lights are turned off at night and the eyes are closed, aren't they all the same… A man's ability is the most important thing. His waist looks good."

Leng Mushi pulled her ears, thinking that if it weren't for Fenlian and Xiaomei's recovery, she would definitely introduce this man to them. They were a pair of reincarnated frogs, too noisy.

"Let's talk business," Leng Mushi looked at him, "Does the Demon Emperor look unusual?"

"What unusual could there be? Why don't you give up? Three months ago, after he fell off the cliff and I took him to the Demon Realm, it took less than three days for him to awaken and start killing everywhere. The underground river of the entire Demon Realm has been the color of the red sunset for the past three months."

Leng Mushi pursed her lips when she heard this. Chi Yu then said, "This is also the last time I'm here. I've repaid the favor I owed you in the forbidden area that day. The Heavenly Demon's power is unbelievably strong. Three months is enough for him to rectify the Demon Realm. The previous demon race's escape and riots were just an appetizer. The war between the Demon Realm and the Cultivation World is about to start."

Chi Yu said, "I'm by his side. If I'm not careful, he will kill me. I can't come to give you news anymore. You should give up. A tyrannical demon like him can't possibly have any human consciousness left in his body. What misunderstanding do you have about the fragile willpower of humans?"

Leng Mushi remained silent, just squinting at the red sunset.

"You can't even protect yourself now, so don't worry about it. The two great demon generals have returned to their positions. Now all the demons in the Demon Realm who had different intentions have been sacrificed to the dark river. The Demon Emperor wants to marry a wife recently."

Leng Mushi's eyelids twitched and she looked at Chi Yu. He sighed, stepped closer, and patted Leng Mushi's shoulder, "I think it's good that you are locked up here. At least even if the demon race invades and kills everyone in the Cultivation World, they won't be able to kill you."

Chi Yu said, "Thank you for taking care of my people in Cangsheng Academy. I'm taking it away tonight."

Leng Mushi lowered her eyes and said nothing. Chi Yu said again, "This is the last day. I won't be coming again. You know my name. If you are also dragged out to fight the demon race in the future, and you are defeated on the battlefield of the immortal-demon war, you can tell them my name to save your life. It's considered as repaying the favor of you releasing me from the forbidden area."

"You are one of the four great demon generals now?" Leng Mushi looked at Chi Yu and murmured, "So Blood Demon Mountain suppressed two demon generals, and you are the third…"

"I have achieved my current position thanks to your contribution of letting me take him to the Demon Realm. But I have been sending you messages and sending messages to the Immortal Realm, informing them that those evil spirits escaped from the Demon Realm to the human world, allowing them to seize the opportunity again and again. This is all to repay your kindness." Chi Yu said, "After today, I will no longer work for you."

Chi Yu added, "I advise you to forget about that bullshit human consciousness. The Demon Emperor likes beauties with a pure and solemn appearance. There is a woman in his dream who is very agreeable to him. Now he is searching all over the Demon Realm for this new Demon Queen. Those demon concubines who recommended themselves to him have almost all been killed by him. You are still too charming in appearance. Even if you still can't forget that human, even if I teach you to cultivate demons, you won't even have the chance to be a concubine."

Leng Mushi let out a ridiculous laugh, remembering that the Law said that the awakened Heavenly Demon was destined to be with Leng Tianyin, and she couldn't tell what she felt in her heart.

Chi Yu left quickly. Leng Mushi returned to the cave and continued alchemy, sorting out all the things You Zishu had brought. She now had a whole wall in this cave to store her alchemy formulas and newly developed pills.

She also felt that it was good to be here. If it were before, she even felt that it didn't matter if she stayed here for the rest of her life, but now…

At night, she knelt on the cold ground. It was already the third month of spring in the human world, but it was still the coldest time of winter in this jasper cave. Before she pushed Xiao Mian off the cliff three months ago, she had already released Chi Yu from the forbidden area, but he couldn't escape the Tai Chu Sect's grand formation. He pretended to hide among the demonic beasts raised by Tai Chu Sect. After contacting her, she pushed Xiao Mian off the cliff without any worries.

Coincidentally, that Chi Yu was from the Red Snake Clan. He was attracted by the Red Snake of his own clan in Cangsheng Academy. He was actually related to that snake by blood. The Red Snake kept in Cangsheng Academy was the snake egg rescued by Hua Yanyue when the Red Snake Clan's nest was destroyed.

Chi Yu really kept his word. He was grateful to Leng Mushi for releasing him and promised to help her take Xiao Mian to the Demon Realm.

Under those circumstances, only by going to the Demon Realm would Xiao Mian be the safest. He would awaken sooner or later. The Demon Realm was bloodthirsty and cruel. Only by sending him to the Demon Realm would he not cause any wrongdoing in the human world.

After that, she was locked up in Jasper Cave. Chi Yu had been sending her messages and, as she said, secretly helped the Cultivation World to clean up and deal with those demons who could not stand the new Demon Emperor's tyranny and escaped to the human world to cause trouble.

Up to now, Leng Mushi actually knew that it was just a delusion to expect Xiao Mian's consciousness to still be there. Everything returned to its original track, just like the Law said.

She believed that it wouldn't be long before the Demon Emperor found Leng Tianyin, the pure and solemn beauty who entered his dream. From then on, the human world would be devastated, and the war between immortals and demons would continue. But just like in the storybooks, there would be a ridiculous love legend about the Demon Emperor and the fairy of the Cultivation World…

F*ck that!

Leng Mushi let out a long breath, put away the Law, got into the animal skin quilt warmed by the alchemy furnace, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

She had been having a lot of dreams lately, so many dreams that even many of her alchemy formulas were dreamed up in her dreams.

Perhaps the only thing she had in common with that Demon Emperor was that she had nothing better to do than daydream.

However, there was no pure and solemn beauty in Leng Mushi's dreams. She wanted to dream of Xiao Mian so much, but she had never dreamed of him once, damn it.

That farewell really became their final farewell. Xiao Mian was so stingy that he wouldn't even give her a dream.

Leng Mushi's dreams were very chaotic. She even dreamed of very real scenes of the Demon Emperor and his Demon Queen being inseparable, and the mountains and rivers of the human world being shattered under the iron hooves of the demon cultivators. It was so real, again and again.

Leng Mushi had been a little depressed lately. She felt that she was firmly shrouded by the two words "destiny."

Even though she struggled until she was bruised and bloodied, all she could change were those insignificant things.

Leng Mushi even suspected that the Law had been silent because it disdained to talk to her, because it already knew that she was destined to die under an inconspicuous cliff, just like in the plot.

It was silent mockery. The Law laughed at her until she was cracked all over.

Leng Mushi sneered because of this and threw it into the alchemy furnace for two rounds, letting it know how powerful she was.

Even though it wasn't afraid at all.

Leng Mushi enlightened herself. She kept persuading herself that it was not a big deal. It was just that the object of her affection, after turning into a demon, was going to hook up with her sister. What's the big deal?

Even a deadpan like You Zishu liked her. At worst, she would go to see the snake cultivator with two things that Fenlian mentioned.

Furthermore, strictly speaking, that Demon Emperor was no longer Xiao Mian.

As long as she wanted to, even if the whole world died, she could still stay here safe and sound. Even if she was forced to go out and fight the demons, and was caught by the demons, she still had Chi Yu's leg to hug.

Her initial goal was to survive. Now she could survive without relying on the Law. She shouldn't be depressed.

She had actually broken free from the plot, hadn't she? What kind of thrilling love, she had tried her best, hadn't she?

She figured it out.

Then one day, when she was working hard on alchemy, it was already June in the human world when spring had arrived.

She heard from Fenlian that the Demon Emperor had found the fairy in his dream. He was now at the foot of Tai Chu Mountain, asking to marry a female cultivator from the sect. As long as Tai Chu Mountain agreed to marry this female cultivator to him, he would withdraw the demon soldiers who were invading the Cultivation World and cease the war.

After Fenlian finished speaking, she looked at Leng Mushi cautiously, not daring to tell her that the Demon Emperor had taken a fancy to her younger sister, Leng Tianyin, who came to see her every month, crying.

After Leng Mushi heard this, she paused for a moment and said with a smile, "Marriage? This trick has always been the way to sacrifice the least since ancient times."

Exactly the same as in the plot.

F*ck that!
