Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Greetings from Little Green, Little Boar, and Little Bear to the Deluxe Merit Saint, Lord Daji, and Lord Fire Phoenix.”
The three Demons bowed with respect at the same time.
Li Nianfan looked at them with curiosity. He asked, “Do you know me?”
Little Green sneakily glimpsed at Daji. She said, “Of course. The Demon King already told us.”
The three Demons were naturally very nervous.
They sneakily glimpsed at Li Nianfan from time to time. Their hearts trembled. After all, that was the first time they officially met the expert..
Previously in the four-part architecture, they gained a lot of benefits. It was either the leftover food or the fruit peels of Spiritual Fruits. Sometimes, they got leftover water. It was a huge blessing.
One could say that they were raised by the expert. They could not reach their achievements without the expert. They were naturally emotional because they were standing in front of the expert.
The Wild Boar Demon was especially emotional. He glanced at Yao Mengji. They were both sentimental.
Back then, the Wild Boar Demon was a live shield for Yao Mengji to attract lightning.
Li Nianfan laughed. “Good. Please, take me to Little Fox.”
“Alright. Follow us, Lord Saint.”
Li Nianfan slowed down. “Oh yeah, I have to pour this bowl of soup away.”
He would drink the soup of the Instant Noodles sometimes, but it was only for the flavor. He would not drink up the entire soup like Yao Mengji.
The three Demons were instantly intrigued. They had to shiver. They hurriedly offered to help. “Lord Saint, how can we let you fuss over such a small matter? Leave it to us!”
“Yes, yes, we’re professionals.”
“Wait a minute. We’ll pour it away for you.”
The three Demons passionately took the bowl of soup into the faraway woods.
‘Here it comes. The leftover food from the expert. It’s our moment to be happy again.’
‘The peak of our lives.’
Li Nianfan watched as they stumbled and jogged into the woods. He had to say, “The three Demons are so quirky and cute.”
In the woods.
Gulp gulp.
“Little Green. We promised one sip for everyone. How can you swallow twice?”
“It’s my turn. Quick, it’s my turn!”
Gulp gulp gulp.
“Stop it! There’s not much left. Save some for me! You guys are so unfair!”
…
The three Demons led the way. They soon arrived at the main hall in the center of Demon City.
It had been a while since they saw Little Fox. The Little Fox that liked to roll around and play in the backyard unexpectedly had the aura of royalty. She stood on her throne. Her huge, long nine tails stood straight. Her eyes were bright with regality and authority.
However, when she saw Li Nianfan and the others, her aura instantly vanished. She became the Little Fox they knew. She leaped toward them.
She leaped and smiled until her eyes were squinted. She wagged her nine tails and leaped into Daji’s embrace. Little Fox felt like she found her warm home again. She playfully said, “Sister, sister, I miss you so much.”
Daji rubbed her fur. Then, she picked her up by the tail and scolded her, “Why are you still in Fox form?”
Little Fox innocently said, “Hehe, why do I have to transform into something else? I look quite good like this. I’m so cute and adorable.”
Daji was about to scold Little Fox again. Li Nianfan snatched the Little Fox and pet her. He also squeezed her tail. It felt much softer and smoother.
‘No wonder people love to pet cats. I love petting the Nine-Tailed Fox. It feels a hundred times better. This feels so good.’
He smiled and said, “Yeah, she looks quite good in this form. Daji, stop forcing Little Fox.”
“Yeah.”
Little Fox instantly allowed him to pet her because he helped her. She happily said, “You’re so nice, brother-in-law. Thanks, brother-in-law.”
“Haha, I love how you call me your brother-in-law. I’ll give you a Lollipop.”
Li Nianfan laughed. He flicked his wrist and out came Lollipops of various colors. It was like a critical hit for Little Fox.
Little Fox was instantly interested. She accepted the Lollipop and squinted from smiling.
She hugged Li Nianfan with her nine tails as if she was saying, ‘Go ahead. Pet me.’
Suddenly, Cultivator Mosquito flew over with Kunpeng as an elder. They greeted them, “Greetings to Lord Saint, Goddess Daji, and Goddess Fire Phoenix.”
“Greetings.”
Li Nianfan nodded. Cultivator Mosquito had a meal in the four-part architecture before. He knew Cultivator Mosquito. He looked at Kunpeng and said, “I wonder what I should call you?”
Kunpeng hurriedly replied, “Lord Saint, just call me Little Peng. I’m that little birdie.”
“I remember. It’s you.”
Li Nianfan smiled. He remembered the little birdie Daji brought to the Kunpeng Feast. It left an impression on him.
Cultivator Mosquito had a blood-red cape on. She said softly, “Lord Saint, please, go ahead. We’re here to welcome you.”
Kunpeng hurriedly continued, “Yeah, Lord Saint. We also prepared Demon performances for you. I assure you it’ll be fun.”
Li Nianfan smiled and nodded. “Good. I brought a lot of good wine, too. We can have fun together.”
Kunpeng and Cultivator Mosquito breathed rapidly when they realized Li Nianfan was about to give them wine. They were flushed from excitement.
‘I knew it. Following the Demon King’s a good choice. She’s the expert’s sister-in-law, after all. Opportunities have arrived as expected.’
They did not dare to delay. They hurriedly went to make preparations.
Li Nianfan arrived too unexpectedly, but they were already prepared. The Heavenly Palace, the Underworld, the Dragons, and the others all knew that they could pause their cultivation, but the performances had to be spot on.
‘Are we finally going to perform after all the rehearsals? One minute on the stage is truly ten years of work offstage!’
Soon, everyone was seated. Kunpeng was with the Demons with higher cultivation.
The Demons were all warned by Kunpeng and Cultivator Mosquito. At first, they thought it was confusing. However, they widened their eyes when they saw the wine. It was dreamy.
A lot of the Demons were not from the Eldritch World. They suddenly encountered such a magical event. They were so frightful that their eyes almost rolled backward. They had goosebumps.
They held their wine glasses and shuddered. They had tears in their eyes.
‘Oh my goodness!’
‘How lucky am I? How am I working for such an incredible Demon King?’
‘My choice back then was a legendary choice! Choices are indeed more important than hard work in life.’
‘Those Demons made fun of me back then. They’re truly younglings in the end.’
Meanwhile.
At one of the Demon Mountains surrounding the Demon City.
Demonic energy was through the roof. Thousands of Demons gathered and were noisy.
A man with flat lips stood on top of a huge rock. He was bossy and dominant. He coldly looked at all the Demons.
The man literally had flat lips because he had a duck’s beak. His hair was brown and his eyes were small. However, his aura made the Demons fear him.
He was one of the Demon Kings—Flying Duck.
His eyes were full of composure. He slowly said, “Listen up. This is my thirteenth time proposing to Little Fox. If she still rejects me… What shall we do?”
“Force her! Abduct her!”
