Green scales

Qingyu has her own separate palace, which is separated from Situ Ling's sleeping palace on the left and right of Wan Yao Hall. The specifications are almost exactly the same, which shows her status in the demon world.

Now that Yao Jue's work was over, Xia Xinglan shouldn't have stayed in the Demon Realm out of reason, but out of selfishness, he didn't mention leaving.

Along the way, Qing Yu didn't say how to arrange him, so Xia Xinglan followed him all the way back to Caiqing Pavilion.

The two tacitly agreed not to mention this matter until they reached the hall, and the maid at the side caught a glimpse of Xia Xinglan's figure, and Qing Yu had already entered the room, Xia Xinglan stood at the door hesitant, the maid hurriedly stepped forward to bless her body, respectfully said:

"Young master, please come here with the slave."

Xia Xinglan glanced into the hall, Qing Yu was sitting at the table with her back facing him, she didn't know what she was doing, the maid's voice was not high, but it was enough for him to hear.

Xia Xinglan didn't move, and the maid repeated it again. Seeing that Qing Yu was noncommittal, Xia Xinglan knew that this was an acquiesce, and a surge of joy suddenly surged in her heart, and she couldn't suppress the slightly raised corners of her lips for a while, turned around and left with the maid.

Qing Yu sat at the table, propped his head in one hand, and held the little sugar snake that Xia Xinglan bought for him in the other, twisting the bamboo stick around with his fingertips, even the little green snake with a simple-looking appearance was pleasing Quite a lot.

"Your Majesty, the jade soup is ready." The maid outside the door whispered.

Qing Yu let out a "hmm", got up and took off her outer shirt, and she could see her tall and slender waist at a glance.

Qing Yu looked sideways at the little green snake in her hand and thought for a moment, then stuck him on the bedside, then went out the door and walked towards Yutang.

The courtyard where Xia Xinglan lived was adjacent to Qing Yu's dormitory, so it was very convenient to move around. Xia Xinglan had just arrived at the small courtyard, and the maid knocked on the door before her butt was warmed up after entering the room:

"My lord, the jade soup has been prepared. You have been exhausted all the way, so you can go take a shower and change your clothes now."

Xia Xinglan turned her head and smelled herself, and there was indeed a slight smell of sweat. Now that the matter has come to an end, if nothing else happens, the next thing to be busy is Yao Jue and Situ Ling's marriage, but this is just a matter of fact. Major events in the demon world don't require him to participate much.

"Ma'am, please show me the way." Xia Xinglan nodded and said warmly. Like last time, there were a few changes of clothes in the closet. After taking them, Xia Xinglan followed the maid through the winding path to Yutang.

As soon as you enter the door, a gust of hot air blows in your face. A huge gauze screen blocks the door, and you can vaguely see that there is a bath in the room, with the sound of water, and a vague figure.

Xia Xinglan quickly turned his face away, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know there was anyone here."

"Come in." A familiar voice sounded, and Xia Xinglan froze.

It was Qing Yu? !

Xia Xinglan coughed a few times, closed the door with hands and feet, and was suddenly dizzy from the heat in the jade soup. The tip of his nose was filled with the fragrance of acacia, and the sound of water kept ringing in his ears.

Xia Xinglan walked to Yu Tang with her hands tied, only to find that she was nervous for nothing.

There are two pools in Yu Tang, Qing Yu's back is facing him, her black hair hangs down, revealing her graceful neck and shoulders, her skin is more white and tender under the hazy water vapor.

Xia Xinglan's face turned red immediately, and he walked towards the empty soup pond with some discomfort, but fortunately Qing Yu turned his back to him at the moment, looking down on his expression.

Just as Xia Xinglan was comforting himself, suddenly there was a loud sound of water.

With a sound of "crash", a jasper-like snake tail suddenly rose from the Qingyu's soup pool, and it was raised straight up almost to the beam of the roof.

The water splashed in all directions, wet the ground around Tangchi, and wet Xia Xinglan's trousers.

Xia Xinglan stared blankly at the snake's tail. There were countless drops of water attached to the green scales, which reflected strange brilliance like spars under the sunlight.

Then Qing Yu turned around, and the snake's tail fell into the water again, causing a layer of water waves, but this time it directly drenched Xia Xinglan from head to toe.

Xia Xinglan reluctantly untied her hair belt, took off her clothes and put them aside, and entered the pool.

There was a layer of petals floating on the surface of the water. As soon as Xia Xinglan entered the water, she felt relaxed all over her body.

It's just... It's still a bit unacceptable for a big man like him to take a flower petal bath.

Qingyu's water was rushing, as if he was having fun.

"This flower is for relieving fatigue." Qing Yu lazily stretched her limbs, turned around and opened her arms, with her chin resting on the back of her hands, lying on the edge of the pool, looking at Xia Xinglan.

The ink hair rippling with the petals in the water, and the long snake tail swings leisurely in the water, creating circles of water patterns.

"This flower is edible." Qing Yu took out a petal from the small flower basket by the pool, and gently parted her red lips to enclose it.

Xia Xinglan turned around and just bumped into Qing Yu's golden pupils, her body went numb, as if her soul had been sucked away, leaving only a shell, she could only imitate Qing Yu's movements in a daze, and also picked up the flowers from the flower basket by the pool I took a piece of it, put it in my mouth and chewed it carefully.

The petals melted in the mouth, like sugar water. Although the taste was good, Xia Xinglan still felt a little strange about eating the petals, so he only ate one piece and then stopped eating.

Qing Yu seemed to like this flower very much, propped her head with one hand, and took a few petals from the flower basket with the other hand and put them in her mouth.

Whenever Xia Xinglan saw such a naked Qing Yu, his cheeks would feel hot and his breathing would be short of breath.

"You... Do you have anything else to do next?"

Qing Yu replied lazily, and said casually: "I'm busy with the Demon King's wedding. Afterwards, Situ and the others have to go to Beihai. During this time, I have to be in charge of the affairs of the Demon Clan."

"Then... what about Wu He? The spies must have told Wu He that the Demon King was going to the North Sea. What if Wu He took the opportunity to attack the Wan Yao Palace..." Xia Xinglan said worriedly.

Qing Yu didn't care, "Wuhe couldn't attack, otherwise why would he call out all the hidden stakes in the demon world? Wouldn't it be better to cooperate from inside to outside?"

"Why?"

Qing Yu turned her head to look at Xia Xinglan, her wet hair stuck to the side of her face, making her look even more attractive, Xia Xinglan couldn't help but move her Adam's apple.

"Because, there is a mountain protection formation in the demon world that survived from ancient times." Qing Yu said slowly: "Situ built the Wanyao Palace here for the purpose of this formation, and the method of activating the formation can only be used by previous demons." The king knows, and even the existence of this magic circle is rarely known."

"You must know it too." Xia Xinglan coughed dryly.

Qing Yu snorted, and said casually: "Situ always wanted me to take over as the Demon King, so that he could go out with his beloved Yao Yao for sightseeing, so naturally he told me about it early. But when they left Just in case, Situ will activate the formation himself, so we don't need to worry about it."

"You...are you going to take over as the Demon King in the future?" Xia Xinglan asked cautiously.

Xia Xinglan originally thought that Qing Yu would readily agree, but never thought that Qing Yu would be speechless for a moment, silent for a long time, until Xia Xinglan wondered if she had said something wrong, then Qing Yu said slowly:

"I don't want to be the demon king, but I have no choice. Situ has been the king for a long time. As long as I can remember, he is the king of the demon world and the ruler of this land. I know he has always wanted to drop this burden. But if I say no, he won't force me to do it."

"But I have been Qingjun for so long, sitting on the throne of the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, and accepting the audience of all the demons. The people of the demon world respect me so much, how can I leave them alone?"

Hearing this, Xia Xinglan had mixed feelings in his heart. He only realized now that when Qing Yu chose to go back to the mountains and forests with him, deep down in his heart he must have felt that he was ashamed of the people of the demon world. Qing Yu had paid so much for him, and why did he How can you be so favored?

"I..." Xia Xinglan hesitated to speak.

"However, Situ won't mobilize people to let me succeed in the near future, at least until Wuhe is removed." Qing Yu said casually, then sank into the water, and a white light appeared on the surface of the water.

A green snake slowly swam up from the water. The scales of the green snake were all jasper, except for two golden scales beside the eyes, and it leisurely swam behind the screen.

This was the first time Xia Xinglan saw Qing Yu's prototype.

He had read in the book that if golden scales appeared on the body of the snake demon, it must have reached a certain age. If the timing was right, it could transform into a dragon or become an immortal.

And the golden scales beside Qingyu's eyes might have something to do with the dragon ball he swallowed.

As soon as Qing Yu left, Xia Xinglan also hurriedly washed her clothes and left Yu Tang.
