Chapter 28: He Can Only Belong to Me
by Sunflower“Yue Tong of the Myriad Demons Sect’s Butterfly Pavilion pays respects to Senior Sister Nongqin.”
“Ai Cao of the Myriad Demons Sect’s Pleasure-Seeking Pavilion greets Senior Sister Nongqin.”
In Luo City’s Chunfeng House, two beautiful young women who looked to be around thirty years old knelt on one knee before the woman who possessed the world’s highest twin peaks.
“It is I who should be greeting you, Seniors. There is no need for such formalities.”
Jiang Nongqin quickly helped the two up.
Jiang Nongqin didn’t mind, as they were all women, after all.
However, the two women were first stunned, then subconsciously looked down at their own necks.
They had originally been very confident in their figures, and in reality, they weren’t bad.
But in front of this little girl, they were the ones who were little girls…
No wonder the saying circulated in the Myriad Demons Sect: “When Demon Zither Hall’s Nongqin straightens her back, all the women in the world must bend theirs.”
Seeing her today, she truly lived up to her reputation.
Nongqin helped the two seniors to sit down in chairs and poured tea for the two young women.
Her movements were skilled, her slender hands nimble. Especially with that graceful figure, even as women, their eyes were glued to her.
In fact, as early as a few years ago, when this young woman was in the Myriad Demons Sect, many people had already been eyeing her covetously. It was just that everyone knew she was the Demon Lord’s woman, so no one dared to have any ideas.
Now, although the Demon Lord had disappeared, she had long since come to the mortal world to train. Furthermore, the Saintess’s high regard and warning had also suppressed those dissolute people.
One could only say that it was fortunate she had His Highness Lin Xun before and Her Highness Su Ying after. Otherwise, for such a peerless beauty who was also gentle and pure by nature, even as the direct disciple of the Demon Zither Hall, her fate would likely have been more grim than good.
The two young women stood up to receive the tea. “Senior Sister Nongqin is a direct disciple, while we are just ordinary disciples. According to the sect rules, how would we dare to be Senior Sister Nongqin’s seniors?”
“How can that be?” Jiang Nongqin shook her head. “The two seniors entered the sect earlier than Nongqin. A ‘senior’ is what I should call you. It is the two seniors who should not call Nongqin ‘Senior Sister’.”
Ai Cao and Yue Tong looked at each other, then smiled and shook their heads. “How about this? We’ll address each other as sisters.”
Nongqin was about to speak again, but Yue Tong smilingly cut her off. “You can’t call us ‘auntie,’ we’re not that old yet.”
Nongqin knew that these two seniors didn’t want to put on airs in front of her. She smiled gently, her eyes as seductive as silk. “Nongqin understands.”
Looking at this “little sister” before them, Ai Cao and Yue Tong truly liked her from the bottom of their hearts, although they would sometimes feel a sense of inferiority…
“For the two big sisters to come this time, does Her Highness the Saintess have any instructions for Nongqin?” Nongqin asked.
“Sigh…”
Ai Cao shook her head and let out a soft sigh.
“Little Sister Nongqin also knows that after His Highness the Demon Lord disappeared, although the Myriad Demons Sect has been united against the pressure from the righteous path, the inside of the Myriad Demons Sect has become more and more chaotic.
“Especially with the Sect Master in death seclusion, everyone thinks the Sect Master won’t come out. Every hall and every branch wants to vie for the position of Demon Lord.”
Yue Tong nodded and continued to add, “Fortunately, Her Highness Su Ying’s prestige is extremely high, and she has the forces left behind by His Highness Lin Xun. This matter has been suppressed and cannot erupt for the time being. But no matter how much it’s suppressed, there’s a limit.”
Ai Cao: “A few days ago, the Saintess received your report, Little Sister Nongqin. In addition to the demonic sword blood moon not long ago and the recent rumors, the Saintess went into seclusion a few days ago to peer into the heavens. She locked her sights on Luo City and finally made a discovery.”
Hearing this, Jiang Nongqin’s eyes flashed with a happy and surprised light. “Did Sister Su Ying divine His Highness’s whereabouts?”
Ai Cao smiled gently. “Yes. The two Highnesses were childhood sweethearts, and their karma is extremely deep. It’s also thanks to the rumor of ‘Lin Xun is in Luo City’ that Her Highness Su Ying learned that His Highness Lin Xun is truly in Luo City.”
“How is His Highness? Is he alright? Is he still seriously injured?” Nongqin clutched her heart and asked anxiously.
Watching her magnificent undulations, the two quickly shook off their feelings of inferiority.
“His Highness’s injuries have still not healed, and his strength is unknown. However, the divination shows that His Highness is not in any danger for the time being.”
“I really want to find His Highness as soon as possible…” Jiang Nongqin lowered her head sadly, her sorrowful eyes evoking pity, making one want to pull her into an embrace.
“Little Sister Nongqin doesn’t need to worry.”
Yue Tong comforted her.
“The Saintess’s divination shows that His Highness the Demon Lord may be hiding as a scholar right now.”
“A scholar?” Jiang Nongqin’s heart skipped a beat, and his figure appeared in her mind.
Could it be that Young Master Lin really is…
“Little Sister Nongqin? What’s wrong?” Yue Tong asked, seeing Jiang Nongqin’s flickering eyes.
“No… nothing…” Nongqin shook her head. “Big Sister, please continue.”
“Her Highness Su Ying said that the star position is surrounded by purple qi. His Highness Lin Xun should have had some contact with the Violet Mist Holy Land. Especially in a few days, His Highness’s star position will be at the center of the purple qi. Therefore, it is highly likely that His Highness will attend the Violet Mist Grand Ceremony!”
“In short,”
Yue Tong continued.
“It’s not just us looking for His Highness. The other demonic and righteous paths, especially the traitors of our Myriad Demons Sect, are all doing the same.
“Right now, His Highness is still injured and has not recovered. His realm is definitely low. They will definitely take the opportunity to eliminate His Highness.
“We have come to Luo City this time, and the other halls and branches of the Myriad Demons Sect must already know. Our every move is probably being secretly monitored, so we cannot search with great fanfare. Otherwise, that would be harming His Highness.
“So, we have come this time, one, to buy this Chunfeng House and make it our base.
“Two, Little Sister is to attend the Violet Mist Grand Ceremony and do your best to find His Highness!”
“Finally, this is what Her Highness Su Ying asked us to bring to Little Sister Nongqin.”
Ai Cao took out a bead and a small booklet from her storage bag.
“This bead is called the Xun Pearl. It was made by Her Highness Su Ying with a secret technique and heavenly materials and earthly treasures. If His Highness uses spiritual power near Little Sister, then this Xun Pearl will activate and turn red.
“The closer Little Sister gets to His Highness, the deeper the color of the Xun Pearl will become!”
Jiang Nongqin carefully took the Xun Pearl and placed it in the valley between her clothes for safekeeping. Their eyes went straight, because they knew they couldn’t do that…
“Then what is this booklet?”
“Oh, this booklet contains His Highness’s usual habits and some of the strange things he often says. It can also be used to confirm His Highness’s identity,” Ai Cao explained.
Jiang Nongqin opened the booklet with the cover “Brother Lin’s Quotations” and read it seriously.
【That’s it?】
【The wind is quite restless today. It’s a pity the potato chips aren’t half price.】
【No way, no way, there can’t really be someone who…】
【Heaven did not give birth to me, Lin Xun, but the path of handsomeness is like a long night!】
Reading it word by word, the young woman’s eyes gradually became moist.
She gently stroked the small booklet, as if stroking His Highness’s cheek, as if His Highness’s voice was also echoing in her mind…
At the same time, on the peak of the Myriad Demons Sect’s Star-Moon Peak, under the vast starry sky, a cherry-haired woman stood gracefully, looking up at the stars.
“Su Ying, you told Nongqin so much. Aren’t you afraid that Nongqin will snatch Lin Xun away?”
A woman stood beside the cherry-pink-haired young woman and said indifferently.
“I’m not afraid.”
The cherry-haired young woman hugged the clothes that carried Lin Xun’s scent and took a deep breath.
“No matter what the process is, the one by his side can only be me, and he can only belong to me.”
