Chapter 459: What Does Sister Yueer Think?

They were only thirty li away from the Imperial Capital of the Ten Thousand Demon Country.

As long as they reached the Imperial Capital, Que Yu would be safe for the time being.

So now, this was their final opportunity.

If Lin Xun guessed correctly…

The opposition would launch one last assassination attempt.

In any case, if it were him, he certainly wouldn’t pass up this chance.

All in all, Lin Xun knew the enemy wouldn’t let their group enter the city so easily.

Otherwise, all the efforts they had made before would have been completely in vain.

Sure enough, just as Lin Xun’s group was twenty-five li from the Imperial Capital, assassins arrived for yet another attempt.

The Realms of these assassins were at least at the Nascent Soul level, and occasionally a few from the Yupu Realm would pop out.

This was already considered a major investment.

Unfortunately, there were no those in the Immortal Realm.

But even if someone from the Immortal Realm came, it wouldn’t be of much use.

However, these Yupu Realm assassins clearly knew of Lin Xun’s existence.

After attempting a few exchanges and realizing the task was impossible, they didn’t insist on fighting to the death with Lin Xun and quickly fled.

After these assassins left, Lin Xun did not pursue them.

After all, he didn’t have a life-and-death grudge with these assassins, so there was no need to chase them down.

And this was likely the final attempt by those princes.

After this failure, they wouldn’t try anything else.

Perhaps they were feeling very frustrated right now.

No matter how they thought about it, they couldn’t understand why such a Cultivator would suddenly appear by Que Yu’s side!

This was completely different from the intelligence they had received!

“They are relatively smart.”

After what was likely the final ambush failed, Lin Xun spoke slowly to Que Yu.

“There shouldn’t be any more assassinations. You are at least sa—”

【Safe】

Before those two characters could be finished.

Lin Xun grabbed Que Yu’s wrist and pulled her behind him.

A surge of killing intent spread across the flat wilderness!

In the next moment, the ground vibrated slightly.

A giant stone golem charged fiercely toward Lin Xun’s trio.

Boom!

Like a stone golem unleashing its ultimate move, the massive figure crashed toward Lin Xun’s group!

It kicked up a sandstorm over ten meters high.

But when the dust settled, Lin Xun’s finger was pressed against the stone golem’s fist; the massive creature could not advance an inch!

Endless sand and dust fell around them as Que Yu protected Nan Yueer by her side.

After a long silence with no movement, Que Yu slowly opened her eyes.

The falling dust hadn’t touched them in the slightest.

Que Yu straightened up and looked at Lin Xun’s back.

At this moment, Lin Xun stood straight as a protector in front of them.

In front of the ten-meter-tall stone golem, Lin Xun looked like a two-meter human facing a small beast.

But for some reason, at this moment, it seemed as if Lin Xun was the true giant.

And that so-called giant appeared remarkably fragile.

In the next moment, Lin Xun curled his finger and gave it a light flick.

In just an instant, the stone golem suddenly disintegrated.

The stone golem shattered all over the ground, turning into a pile of rubble!

“Don’t hide anymore, come out.”

Lin Xun’s voice echoed out.

A moment later, a man slowly stepped forward.

Lin Xun had seen this man before.

Back in the Rootless Secret Realm, he and another person had attempted to assassinate him.

What was this person’s name again?

He seemed to remember it was… Yu Qiong?

“I was wondering who the expert following Lady Que Yu was; I didn’t expect it to be Young Master Lin.”

Seeing Lin Xun, Yu Qiong was somewhat surprised.

“Greetings, Young Master Lin.”

Yu Qiong performed a bow using the etiquette of the Myriad Laws World.

“I wonder what business brings Young Master Lin to our Demon Race World?”

“Actually, I’m not quite sure how I got here myself.

By the time I came to my senses, I had already arrived.

Why don’t you just treat me as if I’m here in the Demon Race World for sightseeing?”

“Oh?”

Yu Qiong clearly didn’t believe Lin Xun’s nonsense.

Who would end up in a place as far as the Demon Race World while just sightseeing?

“Then I wonder how Young Master Lin and Lady Que Yu linked up?”

Since the other party wouldn’t tell the truth, he let it go.

“That’s a long story, but there’s no need for you to know.”

Lin Xun looked at him indifferently.

“However, I’m protecting this Que Yu. Go back to wherever you came from. If you want to die, I can’t help that, but I am a bit curious.”

“Please speak, Young Master Lin.”

“You are an enshrinement of the Ten Thousand Demon Country’s Imperial Palace, right? Why are you also here to assassinate Que Yu?”

What, is the Demon Emperor worried about his son wanting to usurp the throne? So he wants to have a hand in this too?

That shouldn’t be the case…”

“Not so.”

Yu Qiong shook his head.

“I am no longer an enshrinement of the Imperial Palace; I am now a subordinate of the Seventh Princess.”

“She Qiqi?”

Lin Xun was stunned for a moment, finding it somewhat incredible.

“You became She Qiqi’s man and can still live openly in the Demon Capital? The Ruler of the Ten Thousand Demon Country didn’t get rid of you?”

Yu Qiong gave a bitter smile: “The Ruler did want to get rid of me, but with the Seventh Princess there, the Ruler cannot make a move.”

“…The situation in your Ten Thousand Demon Country is truly…”

Lin Xun wanted to say something but found he didn’t know how to describe it.

“Forget it, take me to see She Qiqi. I have business with her.”

“Very well.” Yu Qiong bowed. “Please follow me, Young Master Lin.”

Lin Xun looked at Que Yu behind him.

“Do you want to go directly to the Crown Prince’s Estate, or come with me to the Seventh Princess’s Estate first?”

“The Seventh Princess’s Estate!”

“Then let’s go.”

Lin Xun took Nan Yueer’s small hand and walked forward.

Looking at Lin Xun’s back and recalling the conversation between Lin Xun and that Cultivator just now,

Que Yu became even more curious about Lin Xun’s identity.

He addressed the Seventh Princess by her name and could see her whenever he wanted.

Moreover, his tone was extremely blunt, yet the other party didn’t seem to care about his disrespect at all.

Who exactly was this Lin Xun?

What kind of relationship did he have with the Seventh Princess?

And where exactly did he come from?

With a belly full of questions, Que Yu trotted to keep up.

She believed that once they reached the Seventh Princess’s Estate, everything would come to light.

Entering the Imperial Capital of the Ten Thousand Demon Country, the most prosperous city in the nation, Lin Xun looked around.

The Imperial Capital was very bustling, and the main roads were massive!

The surrounding buildings rose and fell in succession.

Restaurants, teahouses, butcher shops, wine stalls, rouge shops…

It actually looked much like the prosperous capitals of the Myriad Laws World.

If there was one difference, it was that the streets were mostly filled with the Yao Race, with not many humans.

Also, the girls in the brothels, besides humans, were beast-eared girls… Lin Xun and Que Yu were led by Yu Qiong to the Seventh Princess’s residence.

Looking at the gates of the legendary Seventh Princess’s Estate,

Que Yu felt a bit nervous.

Mainly because the Seventh Princess’s reputation was far too formidable.

Many people would tremble with fear just hearing the title of the Seventh Princess.

In legends, there was even a person who was brought to the estate by the Seventh Princess.

And that person died of pure fright before even seeing her.

Que Yu didn’t know if this legend was true or false.

But regardless,

the terrifying aspect of the Seventh Princess always lay in her calculation of hearts and her grasp of human nature.

Walking through the courtyard, Lin Xun and the others encountered that female war god of the Ten Thousand Demon Country.

“Senior Yu Qiong, who are these two?” Lush Orchid asked, looking at Lin Xun and Que Yu with suspicion.

“Let me introduce them. This is Lin Xun from the Myriad Laws World and Eldest Princess Que Yu of the Bo Kingdom.”

Yu Qiong spoke slowly.

“And this is our Ten Thousand Demon Country’s most famous female general, General Lush Orchid.”

“So you are Lin Xun.”

Lush Orchid sized Lin Xun up from top to bottom.

Lin Xun: “Does the lady know me, or does She Qiqi mention me every day in the estate?”

“You dare call Her Highness by her name?” Lush Orchid’s brow furrowed, and a killing intent forged on the battlefield began to spread.

Lin Xun smiled: “I’m not She Qiqi’s subordinate. Why shouldn’t I call her by her name?”

“You!”

Lush Orchid made a move as if to draw her sword.

“Enough, General Lush Orchid. The Seventh Princess wants to see them; please do not delay, Your Highness Lush Orchid,” Yu Qiong quickly advised.

Lush Orchid stared intently at Lin Xun and finally let out a deep breath:

“Thank you for your hard work, Senior Yu Qiong. I will take them the rest of the way.”

“Then I shall trouble you, my lady.”

Yu Qiong did not decline.

After bowing to Lin Xun and Que Yu, Yu Qiong turned and left.

“Please.” Lush Orchid glanced at Lin Xun and then led the way forward.

“Your Highness, Eldest Princess Que Yu of the Bo Kingdom and Lin Xun have been brought here.”

Outside a room, Lush Orchid cupped her hands and bowed, speaking softly.

Lush Orchid didn’t need to explain anything.

Because as soon as Lin Xun and Que Yu entered the Demon Capital, the Seventh Princess’s informants had already submitted Lin Xun’s portrait.

“I see. You are dismissed. Let them in.”

“Yes.”

Lush Orchid was very surprised by She Qiqi’s command.

In Lush Orchid’s memory, no man had ever been allowed to enter the Seventh Princess’s room.

But this Lin Xun was permitted.

Lush Orchid knew that this Lin Xun was the number one in the Myriad Laws World, and perhaps even the number one in the Demon Race World.

Her Highness often mentioned him to her and expressed Lin Xun’s importance.

But no matter how important he was, he shouldn’t be invited into Her Highness’s bedroom.

Could it be that Her Highness… Suddenly, Lush Orchid had a bold guess, then she glared at Lin Xun, feeling even more uncomfortable in her heart.

But regardless, Lush Orchid could not disobey her Highness’s wishes.

Lush Orchid took a deep breath and finally withdrew.

After Lush Orchid left, Lin Xun entered She Qiqi’s room while holding Nan Yueer’s hand.

Que Yu naturally followed with some trepidation.

The moment the three of them entered the room,

suddenly, a fragrant breeze brushed past.

The door closed on its own.

In the next instant, an exquisite woman appeared before Lin Xun.

The woman was dressed in a sheer black gauze dress.

Under the black dress was a slit skirt, the slit reaching just to the base of her thighs.

The fairness of the woman’s skin formed a sharp contrast with the black dress.

She held her hands behind her back, looking up at Lin Xun from below.

Beneath her long eyelashes, those eyes—vivid, beautiful, and full of danger—held a hint of small delight.

“I didn’t expect you to actually come to the Demon Race World.”

She Qiqi said with a smile.

“What is your reason for coming to the Demon Race World? And why are you involved with Que Yu?

What? Do you like girls like this?”

She Qiqi glanced at Que Yu beside Lin Xun.

“If you like her type, I can do that too, you know. And I can dress even more seductively than her.”

As she finished speaking, She Qiqi slightly lifted her collar, revealing a patch of white skin.

Listening to She Qiqi’s words to Lin Xun, Que Yu’s heart was already in a state of extreme complexity.

She never imagined that the legendary Seventh Princess would say such things to a man.

She even less expected that the Seventh Princess, whom no man could get within half a meter of, would actively flirt with a man.

“Stop it.”

Lin Xun didn’t even glance at her collar.

“My coming to your Demon Race World was just an accident.”

“Oh? An accident?” She Qiqi’s smile became increasingly playful. “What? You mean you didn’t come to find me?”

Lin Xun rolled his eyes at her, not wanting to continue the dialogue with this abnormal person:

“If I want you to help me find someone, what price will you charge?”

“Is this person very important to you?”

“He is the father of this Little Girl beside me. He was forcibly conscripted into the army by your Ten Thousand Demon Country.

This Little Girl has been kind to me, and I promised to help her find her father.”

“Oh?”

Only then did She Qiqi look at the Little Girl Lin Xun was holding by the hand.

Under She Qiqi’s gaze, even though this sister’s smile was very pretty, Nan Yueer instinctively hid behind Lin Xun.

“She has your Spear Intent on her.” She Qiqi blinked. “You’ve taken this Little Girl as your disciple?”

“More or less. Although Yueer hasn’t formally acknowledged me as her master, I have already taught her spear techniques.”

“Hmm, all right.”

She Qiqi paced back and forth in front of Lin Xun with her hands behind her back.

Finally, She Qiqi stopped her steps:

“I don’t need you to compensate me with anything. Since it is this Little Girl’s request, then let the Little Girl pay the price.”

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed slightly: “What if I refuse?”

She Qiqi smiled:

“Don’t be so quick to jump to conclusions. You haven’t even asked for the Little Girl’s opinion yet.

You men always like to take strange things upon yourselves.

You never even ask for us girls’ opinions.

Maybe we didn’t want you men to help in the first place?”

After saying that, She Qiqi lightly smoothed her skirt and squatted down:

“Sister Yueer, is it? You’re very cute. My name is She Qiqi, and I am the Seventh Princess of the Ten Thousand Demon Country.

If Sister Yueer’s father is still in this world, then no matter where he is, I can help Sister Yueer find him.

But Sister Yueer needs to agree to one condition.

That is, after Sister Yueer has learned spear techniques from this man, she must serve me for thirty years. What does Sister Yueer think?”
