Cinder hates owl?

Shen Qiao was pushed to the side of the road, and out of the corner of her eye she saw Wang You inadvertently making a gesture that looked like "holding his wrist".

It seems that the "little mermaid" is making trouble again.

It would be more accurate to say that this team was parading rather than inspecting.

The two cavalrymen leading the way were not wearing defensive iron armor, but some kind of soft robes. The clothes were inlaid or hung with various jewels, and the reflected light was so bright that it could blind people from a distance.

Ten or so meters behind the cavalry was Jin Yanxiao's carriage, a vehicle that clearly had been specially designed. From his perspective, the carriage's base was about two meters off the ground, and above that, the frame was at least four or five meters tall. The roof was clad in golden lacquer wood, a specialty of the demonic realm, inlaid with gold threads and jewels. The supports were also carved in gold and silver. The sides were uncovered, curtained entirely with fine silk. From a distance, a gentle breeze partially obscured the view. The occupant sat cross-legged, looking both mysterious and elegant.

In fact, if we ignore the carriage itself, the four horses pulling the carriage in front are all high-quality willow-white horses.

The Willow White Horse monster wasn't particularly useful. Despite its name, it couldn't run, and at best, it could only walk briskly. It wouldn't hide from enemies in the wild, and would even actively approach those it liked, only to find itself dead. However, this creature, completely white, with long, slender limbs, walked with its head held high, displaying impressive momentum and making it a truly impressive sight.

What a “golden chariot and silver horses”.

I can’t believe that the Demon King of the Demon Realm is living such a comfortable life.

"Lower your head! Are you trying to kill yourself?" The female shop owner tugged at Shen Qiao's sleeve and asked her to lower her head like she did.

Shen Qiao pretended not to hear. After all, with her height, she would not attract attention among this group of monsters of varying heights.

As the two cavalrymen leading the way passed by, the golden carriage got closer and closer. When it passed in front of him, a gust of wind blew open the side curtain, allowing Shen Qiao to see the people inside clearly.

However, this glance made Shen Qiao frown.

The person inside is not the demon king Jinyanxiao, but a bald puppet wearing a purple stand-up collar robe.

Made of wood?

"Uu——"

I didn't see clearly what gestures the wooden man made, but I heard the coachman suddenly stop the four white horses.

As soon as the carriage stopped, the two guards following behind the carriage came forward at the same time. At the coachman's signal, they pulled out a good-looking demon woman from the crowd.

"What are you doing?" The woman was a little flustered. There was a man traveling with her, and both of them were obviously a little at a loss.

It seemed that the others were already used to this. Shen Qiao even heard the female shop owner beside him sigh with regret as she lowered her head.

"What are you doing? You are so lucky! It is your blessing to be favored by our Second Prince!" A demon in the crowd couldn't help but speak.

The man watched his companions being taken away. He wanted to go up and question them, but was pushed back by a guard. He was anxious and shouted, "No! My sister already has a husband! You can't take her away like this!"

"Oh?" The groom who ordered the guards to drag the man away opened his eyes wide when he heard this.

"She got married?"

The man's expression froze, and then his features wrinkled into a ball as he said in embarrassment: "This...this hasn't happened yet..."

"Then it's none of your business." The groom didn't wait for him to finish, and swung the whip in his hand onto the ground with a loud crack.

The four well-trained willow-white horses whirred a few times, shook their heads, and started walking in an orderly manner again. The woman was also carried into the carriage by two guards, and the curtains around her were lowered again to completely cover the situation inside.

"Oh..." Seeing the person being taken away, the man subconsciously took a few steps forward but stopped again. Finally, he shook his head and did not continue to chase.

"What good luck." The female shop owner next to Shen Qiao sighed a few times, with envy in her unwillingness.

"If I were a few years younger, I might have been chosen."

Shen Qiao retracted his gaze and looked up to exchange a glance with Wang You.

"I can't come back." Wang You obviously knew what Shen Qiao wanted to ask.

"This is an imitation of the human emperor's selection of concubines. But the demons don't have the concept of 'giving birth', so Jin Yanxiao takes the human back home to raise for a while, and then eats it when he's had enough."

The eating here means real eating. After all, high-level demons can increase their power by feeding on their own kind.

The more beautiful it looks, the higher its grade, and the more nutritious it is to eat.

"Eating a human being is so sophisticated." Shen Qiao couldn't help but complain.

But these people looked longingly.

That’s right, the demons have never cared much about “death”.

After the team walked for a while, the crowd dispersed on their own. Everyone did what they had to do. The brother who lost his sister didn't look very sad, he just walked away quickly.

"That's my store." The female owner reminded.

Looking in the direction she pointed, Shen Qiao saw that she was pointing at the three-story building with glazed walls that he had seen at the city gate before.

"Let me tell you something. If you leave my building, turn left and walk down one street, you'll find the busiest central square in Wanjin City. The execution will take place there soon. If you still want to wander around, just go straight out the door and head west. There are lots of stalls over there, selling everything!"

As she spoke, the female shop owner quickly glanced at Wang You, who was standing next to Shen Qiao. She leaned closer to Shen Qiao and whispered, "I think both of you have nice bone proportions. Wouldn't you consider changing the skin you're wearing? Anything you like would be better than what you're wearing now."

I guess only you demons have the ability to change human skin at will.

"Forget it. We're both used to this kind of leather. Our family doesn't allow us to dress up." Shen Qiao gave a polite smile, but his voice sounded a little aggrieved.

"Family? You two are..."

"They are brother and sister."

"I see. That's really... well, I'm not saying this, but the little devil these days is just too strict at home. Forget it, it's better to be stricter."

The female shop owner shook her head with regret, and easily changed her words to avoid offending anyone and skipped the topic.

"Oh, we're already here. There are so many people these days, why don't you two..."

"We'll come back later." Wang You, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. The female boss and Shen Qiao were both stunned, but before she could say anything else, Wang You had already dragged Shen Qiao away.

Shen Qiao knew something was wrong when he saw his expression, and quickly sent a message: "What's going on? Aren't we waiting for the execution?"

"No need to wait, now we have a chance, let's go and break the prison."
