Lu Sheng looked at him, then at the green tea in her hand. She seemed to have thought of something and could not help but smile.
She placed Lu Zhou’s green tea aside and unscrewed the cap before handing it over again.
This time, Chu Sihan smiled.
He reached out to receive it, then abandoned his usual elegance and finished the bottle in one go.
Lu Sheng smiled and stuffed the bottle cap into his hand. Then, she looked at Shangguan Dian, Official Lu, and the rest who were sealing the boundary.
“I’ll go and help.”
Chu Sihan stood up and strode towards the crack. Then, he joined the team that was sealing the boundary.
Seeing the red light approaching, Lu Sheng’s heart skipped a beat.
She pursed her lips and stared nervously at the gradually closing seal.
With Chu Sihan’s addition, the seal recovered faster.
She glanced at Lu Zhou, who was still meditating, and clenched her fists subconsciously.
“Don’t worry, they can do it.”
Lu Zhou spoke faintly without opening his eyes.
If Shangguan Dian was alone, the seal would not have recovered so quickly.
However, with the addition of Official Lu, Chu Sihan, and the others, repairing the seal was much easier.
“But…”
Lu Sheng could already faintly see the figure of the flame spirits.
They pounced towards Chu Sihan and the rest. Lu Sheng’s pupils constricted and she thought that they were about to escape.
However, the flame spirits that pounced over were instantly bounced back by an invisible force.
It turned out that the seal had long been repaired. The reason why Shangguan Dian did not stop was because he wanted to thicken the seal.
Lu Sheng heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at the flame spirits trying their best to escape, she smiled faintly.
—————
The group returned to the Demon King’s Palace. When Netherworld received the news, he had already gotten someone to prepare food and drinks.
Unlike the human world, the food in the Demon Realm were mostly strangely-shaped spiritual fruits.
“Why is there only these? There’s no meat?”
Looking at the various spiritual fruits on the table, Shangguan Dian despised them.
During his time in Ghost Mountain, he had been longing for chicken, duck, and fish.
In the end, when he returned, Netherworld had prepared a table of vegetarian dishes for him.
Netherworld explained helplessly, “King, you need to replenish your spiritual power.”
He had spent a lot of effort to find these spiritual fruits because he knew that their trip would definitely use up spirit energy.
He had prepared a table just to give Shangguan Dian a surprise. In the end, he wanted to eat meat?
“Hurry up and prepare some chicken, duck, and fish meat. Don’t you see that I have other guests here?”
Netherworld glanced at Lu Sheng and the rest and hurriedly agreed. “Yes, I’ll get someone to prepare it now. King and the guests, eat some spiritual fruits to fill your stomach first.”
“Go ahead.”
Shangguan Dian picked up a spiritual fruit and took a bite. Then, he waved at him.
After Netherworld left, Lu Zhou picked up two spiritual fruits and stuffed them into Lu Sheng’s and Chu Sihan’s hands.
“This is good. Eat more.”
The duo thanked him in unison before chewing on the spiritual fruit slowly.
Shangguan Dian pushed the entire plate in front of Lu Sheng and said with a smile, “Little niece, eat more. If it’s not enough, Uncle will get someone to pluck more.”
The guards’ legs went weak and they almost knelt on the ground.
In order to pluck these spiritual fruits, they had been chased by those divine beasts everywhere. They had just returned and were going again?
Lu Sheng smiled. “Thank you, Uncle Demon King!”
Shangguan Dian chuckled. “Don’t stand on ceremony. Eat slowly. These are all yours.”
