Although the little apprentice sister is weak, she can fight

"Robber." Xu Tang added another comment to his evaluation of Wang You.

"It's making the best use of everything." Wang You corrected him patiently.

A child version of Xu Tang, shrunk to the size of a palm, was sitting on the horse's mane in front of Wang You with his tail in a fish-tail bun. After being pushed countless times, he shifted his attention to the horse under him.

He looked up at You and said, "I want to ride a horse too."

"Only two in total."

"You go with the little kid."

"This is my horse. Why should I give it to you?"

Xu Tang was even more unhappy. He patted Wang You's hand with his fish tail, deliberately looking for trouble. "Is this the service attitude of your Tianxing Sect to your clients?"

"You haven't paid the commission yet." Wang You responded calmly, "So you can't enjoy the full service."

"Puch..."

Hearing Shen Qiao laugh, Xu Tang glared at him.

Shen Qiao stopped smiling and pretended to be serious, "Sorry, I couldn't help it."

Having already received the person, there was no need to go through the demon colonies, but Xu Tang's situation was special. Even though the fish was still alive and kicking, Wang You said it still had some sedative toxins in its system that were suppressing its heart meridians, and its immature mermaid bloodline prevented it from staying out of the water for long.

Shen Qiao's water spirit power was too strong. He had been imprisoned in the Demon Realm for too long and could not bear the water condensed by pure spirit power. Therefore, he could only find some low-key hotels along the way for him to rest, and then ask Zelan Immortal Lord to prescribe a special prescription for detoxification and conditioning after bringing him back to the sect.

After coming out of Luguanglin, the employer made a lot of noise all the way, but after about an hour, he was obviously out of energy. His head was nodding and he almost slipped off the horse's mane several times. He was caught by Wang You and put into his sleeve. He fluttered a few times symbolically and then there was no movement.

"This place is still some distance from the nearest demon city. We'll stay at a hotel if we find one and wait until the fish recovers before leaving."

Shen Qiao nodded, "Okay."

Because parts of the Demon Realm bordered the demon race, and the demon race was inherently neutral, their relationship, while not exactly friendly, wasn't as deadly as the celestial and demonic realms, where they'd fight to the death upon encounter. Therefore, some official inns on the outskirts of the Demon Realm were managed by demons. However, deep within the Demon Realm, nearly every industry was managed by demons themselves, making even finding a regular inn run by the demons difficult.

We didn't pass any suitable water source along the way, but fortunately we came across a "mobile car" that was in operation.

The so-called "floating carriage" is actually a place for temporary rest, but unlike ordinary inns and post stations, it is mobile. Externally, this "floating carriage" is similar in structure to a regular carriage, except that it is larger, at least two stories tall. It is pulled by four magic tigers in front and has eight huge wheels in the back, allowing it to move and stop as it pleases. It sounds quite novel, but the rooms are all priced higher than ordinary accommodations, regardless of whether they are upper, middle, or lower-class.

But there is no other way now.

"There's just one room left on the second floor. If you're only staying for two hours... then go to the one at the end, turn left. Si'er! Take you two upstairs!" The steward counted the abacus beads quickly in his hand, and then shouted to call people without even looking up.

This small shop is doing so much business that it is almost impossible to squeeze in.

Soon, the waiter called by the steward came over hurriedly, hopping on one leg. "Here I come! Both of you! Please follow me!"

The appearance of the demons has never been entirely human. This guy named "Si'er" has one eye and one leg, and he has to jump to go up the stairs.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Second Prince is really angry this time, and he wants to execute even the old doctor who has been using the medicine for over a hundred years."

"Well, I heard that the man on the wanted poster was let go by this old doctor. Now he's missing and can't be found. Who else should we kill but him?"

"Who cares? They're dead anyway. If they hadn't died, how could we have such a good thing today?"

Old doctor? Wanted?

Shen Qiao quickly extracted these two words from the words of these monsters.

The death of a monster is not a purely bad thing for other monsters. Their death means that their bones will be crushed and their ashes will be scattered in front of the onlookers. These scattered ashes will be snatched up and collected, and left for other monsters to repair their own defects. This is much more useful than mud.

So, most of these people are going to watch the execution?

"This is your room. There's a bell hanging inside. Just call if you need anything!"

After the waiter finished speaking, he handed the key to the room to Shen Qiao and then jumped away.

After closing the door, the noise outside was noticeably less.

Shen Qiao found a wooden basin for washing his face and filled it with warm water that was already prepared in the room. Wang You put the wilted Xu Tang into the basin and asked him to sink to the bottom and recover slowly.

"Go and have a rest. I'll call you when the time comes." Wang You sat down at the table. Shen Qiao looked at him and took out a stack of folders as if he was planning to take some time to read them.

Calculating the time, at least three days have passed from the border to Luguanglin and then to here.

But I tried it and it was okay, I didn’t feel very sleepy.

Therefore, after lying in meditation on the bed for an hour, she opened her eyes, tiptoed to Wang You and sat down.

Trying to let her sit down, Wang You moved his eyes away from the paper and glanced at her sideways, but he didn't avoid her when looking at the words on the paper. He even straightened his back slightly to give her space to look up.

After watching for about ten seconds, Shen Qiao had to close his eyes and look away. His head felt dizzy as if he had been spinning more than ten times.

Wang You saw her expression and jokingly said, "Give up?"

This wasn't the first time she'd tried to read the words. When she'd first become a disciple, she hadn't even known if there were any words on it. Later, as her realm improved, she realized there were words. But when she tried to see what was written, it was as if a layer of white cloth was covering her vision. Not only could she not see clearly, but she also felt dizzy.

She sighed, rubbed her brows in a half-helpless manner, and said, "Do people at your level all like to play with such advanced things?"

Wang You chuckled at this, "It's not 'the kind of thing we like at this level'. There's only one copy of this thing in the world."

"Do you believe it or not?"

Shen Qiao looked at his smiling face, but couldn't utter the word "bragging" for a moment.

Wang You is a casual person. Although what he says may sound irrelevant sometimes, he never brags.

"Believe it." Shen Qiao changed his tone, and at the same time his stubborn temper came up.

"One day, I will be able to read the words clearly on my own."
