"I didn't believe it at first, but he did attract it."

Thinking of the loss he had suffered, Wang Huntian became even more angry and pointed at Chu Xing and complained bitterly:

"And Princess, you have no idea how evil his heart is. At first, he told me he only wanted to practice a spell that might attract heavenly thunder. Then he tricked me, an old monk who couldn't keep up with the times, into saying things like, even if I destroyed the City Lord's Mansion, he wouldn't ask for compensation!"

Jiang Lihuo had a strange look on her face, and she didn't say anything. Her beautiful eyes moved around, looking at Chu Xing with a playful look.

Okay, okay, you old man are saying bad things about me now and you don’t even avoid me anymore, right?!

Just wait, I'm going to report you now!

Chu Xing was furious and said loudly:

"Princess, I want to report someone who is corrupt and abuses their power. Not only has he embezzled public funds..."

Wang Huntian's expression changed, and he quickly stepped forward to cover his mouth, then used his spiritual sense to send him a message:

"My dear nephew, with one City Lord's order, this matter is over!"

"Is seeing the token like seeing the city lord?" Chu Xing asked in a voice transmission.

"Ah."

"make a deal."

Wang Huntian withdrew his hand, and Chu Xing smiled shyly at Jiang Lihuo:

"Um...I have nothing to report."

Jiang Lihuo glanced at the two of them unhappily, and walked towards the gate in a fiery red dress.

Seeing this, several guards hurried forward and tried to stop them.

Just as they were about to speak, a suffocating and terrifying aura suddenly emanated from Jiang Lihuo.

Several people were so frightened that they stood frozen in place, as if bound by invisible shackles, unable to move. Cold sweat oozed from their backs like trickles, soaking their clothes.

The three of them hurriedly followed.

Once inside the mansion, the four split into two groups.

Chu Xing followed Jiang Lihuo to see Yongning Hou, while Wan Shankong and Wang Huntian went to look for Li Qinghe and Pushe.

"What's wrong, princess?"

Chu Xing saw Jiang Lihuo walking and suddenly stopped, and asked.

"There is some evil spirit remaining here." Jiang Lihuo frowned slightly.

Chu Xing didn't take it seriously. "For such a large mansion, it's not surprising to have one or two monsters, right? Even I have a spirit beast."

The cultivation world now has a very general division between demon beasts and spirit beasts. Those that have been tamed are called spirit beasts, while those that have not been tamed are called demon beasts.

It is not like in ancient times, when only some strange beasts that were blessed by the spirits of heaven and earth could be called spiritual beasts.

"A great demon that has transformed," Jiang Lihuo rolled his eyes at him, "and judging from his aura, his cultivation level has probably reached the perfection of He Dao."

"This Yongning Marquis's cultivation shouldn't have reached the state of Hedao Perfection, right? How could he have subdued such a powerful monster?"

Chu Xing was a little envious.

Now he basically has everything except a cool mount.

If it was a dragon, that would be even better. After all, who hasn’t fantasized about riding a white dragon in the sky?

Jiang Lihuo said in a deep voice:

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. Hun Tian Immortal City is located on the western edge of the Dali Dynasty, only a thousand miles away from the Demon Realm."

A monster from the demon realm?

Wouldn't that be equivalent to a wild monster that no one wants?

Chu Xing's heart moved slightly, and he smiled flatteringly:

"No matter how it came from, with you here, Princess, even if it has the power to penetrate the heavens and the earth, it won't be able to cause any waves."

Jiang Lihuo saw that his words suddenly became pleasant, and knew that he must be up to something again:

"If you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to act so disgustingly flattering."

Chu Xing was not embarrassed, and rubbed his hands excitedly and said:

"We're still short of a spiritual beast to protect Piaomiao Peak. If it's truly a beast no one wants... oh no, a demon beast from the Demon Realm, could Princess help me capture it and bring it back? I'll ask Master if he'd approve of it."

Jiang Lihuo's eyes twitched slightly. After a moment of silence, he uttered a word calmly: "Okay."

……

"Please wait here. I will bring the woman to you later."

Marquis Yongning led the Red Scale Demon King to a rather secluded courtyard. He said something coldly and was about to leave.

The Red Scale Demon raised his hand slightly to block him, with a wicked smile on his face:

"Then you have to pick some good-looking ones for me, preferably monks. I have no interest in those vulgar and ordinary women. Otherwise, if I'm not satisfied, I don't mind staying in your house for a few more days."

Yongning Hou's face darkened and he snorted coldly:

"Hmph, I'll make arrangements for you. Next time you need these, you don't have to come into the city to find me. I'll send someone to deliver them to you outside the city."

After he finished speaking, he pushed the Red Scale Demon King's arm that was blocking him away and strode out of the courtyard.

The red-scaled demon lazily sat down on the stone bench next to him, crossed his legs, and placed his hands lightly on his knees, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"You're here so soon?"

The Red-Scaled Demon hadn't even sat down yet when he heard some noise coming from outside the yard.

Immediately afterwards, a woman in a red dress with an elegant temperament walked in.

Her eyes are like the moon in the autumn water, bright and deep;

Eyebrows are like distant green mountains, long and slightly raised;

Her nose is straight and her lips are as soft and tender as rose petals, making people want to kiss her.

The red-scaled demon looked at it and was slightly dazed. He didn't even notice the white-robed man following closely behind him.

"Are you from the demon realm?"

The woman's majestic yet gentle voice brought the Red Scaled Demon back to his senses from his daze.

The red-scaled demon looked at the woman in the red dress with a scorching gaze, his eyes full of lust, as if he wanted to eat her alive.

Then, the red-scaled demon stretched out his hand impatiently and was about to hug the beauty in front of him.

However, before his hand touched the hem of the red-dressed woman's clothes, he suddenly felt a sense of alarm.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful force came towards him to suppress him.

He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his hair stood on end.

"Cultivator...crossing the tribulation!"

The Red Scale Demon broke out in a cold sweat and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy:

"Sir, please spare my life, sir, please spare my life! It's me who has failed to recognize the true master!"

"Tell me your identity and origins," Jiang Lihuo said with a cold, condescending look. "Don't even think about lying. All the demons living in Dali are registered. I can check and find out if what you said is true."

"The little demon is called Chilin, and he is a demon general under the command of the Demon King Tiankui in the Demon Realm." The great demon Chilin replied quickly.

"If they are demons from the Demon Realm, then why do they appear in my Dali Territory?" Jiang Lihuo narrowed his eyes slightly.

The Red Scale Demon's eyes flickered, and he stammered:

"Little Demon... Little Demon has long admired the customs and practices of the human race, which is why I secretly entered this country, wanting to see it with my own eyes. Little Demon holds absolutely no ill will towards the human race."

boom!

The red-scaled demon felt an invisible force descending from the sky, pressing him down to the ground, making close contact with the ground.

He struggled to get up, but found that his body seemed to be pressed down by a mountain and he could not move.

"My patience is limited," Jiang Lihuo's tone became even colder. "If I hear even a single lie from you again, you won't have to speak again!"

The Red Scale Demon was so frightened that his entire body trembled, and he kowtowed repeatedly, "Sir... I know I was wrong! I am willing to tell the truth! I only beg you to spare my life!"
