Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

Chapter 374 The Aloof and Holy Human Buddha Child VS The Adorable and Devoted Demon Cat Emperor [50]

Upon returning to the Demon King's cave, Xiu Jie ordered his men to prepare a large quantity of fish and meat, including steamed fish, grilled fish, and fried fish—everything imaginable.

Jiang Xiyu was only pretending to be hungry, but cats naturally love to eat fish. He couldn't resist turning back into his original form, sitting on the stool, and starting to eat.

When he tastes something delicious, his golden pupils widen suddenly for a moment, and his cat ears perk up.

Shiga did not sit down; he simply stared at Jiang Xiyu quietly, thinking to himself: He really is hungry.

Most demons eat meat, so Xiu Jie specially ordered his demon servants to find some wild vegetables, since the Grand Master was a monk and could not eat meat.

He watched as the demon servant put down the wild vegetables before asking, "Great Master, please have some too."

Shiga shook his head and thanked him for his kindness.

He did not need to eat human food. The only time he tasted a fruit picked by Jiang Xiyu was after he suffered the backlash of his good deeds.

Xiu Jie didn't say anything, after all, there really wasn't much vegetarian food in their demon realm, and these wild vegetables didn't look very presentable.

He suggested going out to talk with Shiga.

Shiga glanced at Jiang Xiyu, who was eating fish with his head down, and nodded.

Jiang Xiyu glanced at it but didn't pay much attention.

Once the door was closed, no sounds could be heard from the outside.

However, Jiang Xiyu had excellent hearing and was able to hear what the two were saying.

Xiu Jie hoped that if Shi Jia was still searching for what he was looking for in the demon realm, he wouldn't need to reside in the void, because if word got out, it would only mean that the demon realm was ignorant of etiquette and had slighted the Grand Master of Yujing.

He not only said some irrelevant things, but also dragged Jiang Xiyu into it.

Since Shiga is now taking care of him, he has some experience in raising cats that he wants to share with him.

Although Xiu Jie is a rough man, he is thoughtful and especially likes raising small spirit pets.

He earnestly shared his insights with Shiga, saying that cats are naturally fond of eating fish, and that they need to be well-fed and sleep comfortably every day to avoid anxiety. He also said that cats like furry things, as this stimulates their hunting instincts. Furthermore, he said that owners should spend more time with and pet their kittens so that the cats will be in a good mood and not become lonely...

It was a complete mess, and Jiang Xiyu's lips twitched as he listened inside.

He heard Shiga remain silent, and then he didn't want to listen anymore. However, before he stopped listening, he seemed to hear Shiga give a faint reply.

When Shiga and Xiujie came in, Jiang Xiyu had almost finished eating. He transformed back into his original form, licked his paws, washed his face, and when he looked up, he met Shiga's gaze.

Shiga's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was somewhat puzzled by what Shiga was doing.

Xiu Jie explained with a smile, "He's washing his face."

It turned out she was washing her face.

Upon hearing what Xiu Jie said, Jiang Xiyu immediately stopped licking his fur.

He opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth in a warning manner to Xiu Jie. The way his mouth revealed its fangs was completely different from his usual adorable and innocent appearance. It was as if Jiang Xiyu would rush up and bite him to death if Xiu Jie said a few more words.

But this shape looks a lot like yawning, which doesn't seem dangerous. It also reveals his soft, pink tongue and a row of small teeth in addition to his sharp teeth.

Seeing his silly expression, Shiga smiled faintly.

It was as if a drop of mist had fallen into a clear pool of water, creating ripples that vanished in an instant, leaving no trace.

When Jiang Xiyu looked at him, his expression was as still as water, completely calm.

……

As night fell, the Demon Emperor's palace was filled with the fragrance of incense and heavy with shadowy veils.

The water curtain in the center of the palace stopped, and the lotus flowers in the pond, which had not yet bloomed, were now swaying gracefully in full bloom.

Yuejia sat cross-legged on the jade platform, surrounded by a faint golden light mixed with a red halo. After a long while, the golden light was swallowed by the red light until it disappeared completely. Only then did the person sitting on the jade platform slowly open their eyes.

Yuejia looked at his palm, feeling the power filling it, and closed his eyes contentedly, sweat sliding down his cheek.

It was indeed Shiga's, and it was also his merit. Since it was originally his own, he could use it more easily, which was much faster than letting him devour those chaotic evil thoughts.

Unfortunately, he couldn't have it forever.

So much time has passed since the last time the magic array happened, and he still hasn't seen the Demon Emperor return.

He had originally intended to subtly encourage him to absorb more of Shiga's merits, but now that opportunity was gone. However, he believed that the man would return soon.

Because Jiang Xiyu can't let him go.

He only needed to wait for the Demon Emperor to return, because he was certain that Shiga would not remove the magic array so easily.

After all these years, Shiga has been searching for him for so long, how could he easily let go of this opportunity?

He used anger to cause the prayer beads to behave abnormally. With such obvious signs, anyone would rather grab the wrong one than miss it.

Yuejia gazed out of the palace, her eyes, seen through the hazy veil, seemingly holding a hint of a triumphant smile.

When the red-clad demon servant saw him open his eyes, she immediately bowed her head respectfully and stepped forward, not daring to reach out to help him up, but only reminding him to take a bath.

Yuejia dislikes being touched by people.

He glanced at the demon servants and then stepped down from the jade platform.

The hot spring was built behind the inner hall, and amidst the misty atmosphere, one could faintly smell the fragrance of herbs in the air.

This medicinal bath was prepared by Jiang Xiyu for his health. The water inside is mixed with dozens of precious herbs from the demon realm, with the aim of preventing Yuejia's body from becoming too weak and even having the effect of preserving youth.

Demons have a very long lifespan, while humans have a very short one.

This hot spring was also Jiang Xiyu's personal desire.

He hoped that Yuejia could stay with him a little longer.

Yuejia initially dismissed this, as his body was not in such a state due to illness; it was simply that he was not used to the woman's skeleton, which made him appear sickly.

Unexpectedly, by sheer chance, this hot spring could suppress those rejection reactions and even help his flesh and blood fuse better.

Over time, Yuejia developed the habit of soaking in this hot spring.

The demon servant stepped forward and respectfully removed his hair ornament and outer robe, then lowered the gauze curtain and led away the other demon servants who were guarding him.

Yuejia did not completely remove his clothes. He walked into the hot spring wearing only thin clothes, closed his eyes, and felt the herbs working through his skin in his body.

It was like a bone-scraping knife, washing away the marks on the mortal skeleton he possessed.

The candlelight flickered, casting shadows on the jade, making his face appear as white as snow, soft and gentle in the hazy light. His black hair was unkempt, and a touch of crimson between his brows gave him the appearance of a Bodhisattva with a bamboo basket.

When Jiang Xiyu returned, the demon servants were all waiting outside the palace.

After dismissing the crowd, he was greeted by this beautiful scene of a lotus emerging from the water.

Jiang Xiyu paused, then stared at him blankly for a moment.

As if sensing something, Yuejia's eyelashes trembled for a moment, and she slowly raised her pair of red eyes.

He glanced over casually, looked at Jiang Xiyu for a moment, and then, seemingly intentionally, sank into the pool.

Jiang Xiyu blinked, startled awake by those red eyes.

In an instant, the water splashed and ripples spread outwards.

Seeing Yuejia sink into the hot spring, Jiang Xiyu couldn't resist appearing in a flash and pulling Yuejia out of the water.

Yuejia's face was wet, and the water dripped down his eyelashes, as if into his red eyes.

He looked at Jiang Xiyu, his seductive intent growing stronger. Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he chuckled softly and invited, "Husband, let's take a bath together."
