Chapter 185
Chapter 185
After Zhong Xian left, his subordinates also took the boy to Su Xianyun's cave.
Su Xianyun is good at making and growing poisons, and his puppets also have certain detoxification abilities. The boy has been exposed to too much poison, so it would be better to find a professional to deal with it first.
The other demons had not expected to see the Demon Lord and the four young masters today. They were content to eat their fill of gossip, and as they dispersed, they still did not forget to gossip:
"Why is it so lively here today?"
"You don't know? I heard that the city lord, Sun Tuzhou, occupied our farmland and used it to grow poisonous plants."
"That's not right. I heard that it was the Third Young Master who poisoned the Second Young Master. Didn't you see that the Second Young Master was covered in black? He was poisoned by the Third Young Master."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around them instantly became interested.
Compared with ordinary things, this kind of exciting gossip is more to people's taste.
"real or fake?"
"It must be true. How could I lie to you? My brother is the young master's subordinate."
Hearing this, the credibility of the gossip instantly increased. Just as everyone was spreading the gossip quickly, someone else mixed in the crowd and gossiped:
"I don't know whether the Third Young Master poisoned the Second Young Master, but I heard that the Second Young Master collaborated with the City Lord Sun Tuzhou and kidnapped the Fourth Young Master, so the Third Young Master and the Young Master targeted him."
"I heard that the Fourth Young Master discovered the evil things Sun Tuzhou was doing, so he called the Young Master and the others?"
"Who among you is telling the truth?"
"Who cares which one is real? Anyway, I can see that the three young masters are really at odds with each other. Only the fourth young master is the most peaceful. Look at the Demon Lord, he likes the fourth young master the most and even personally took the fourth young master away. In my opinion, the next Demon Lord is very likely not the young master, but the fourth young master."
"That's impossible, right? The Fourth Young Master is still just a child."
"But I never thought that the fourth young master was actually a child. It's a pity that I didn't see what she looked like. I only saw that she had a big white tail."
"Apart from anything else, the fact that Sun Tuzhou's conspiracy was discovered this time must have been thanks to the Fourth Young Master. She has only been in our Demon Clan for a short time, and we can take our land back!"
Although the crowd dispersed, the discussions never stopped.
Gongsun Ming held up his face and looked at Baozhu in front of him, and the smile on his face could not be suppressed no matter how hard he tried.
Gongsun Ming could see the places where he had marked at any time, so he clearly watched the whole process of the melee between Zhong Xian and the others.
He also had spies among the demons, so the discussions of the demons naturally reached his ears clearly.
It can be said that this time they abandoned their traitorous grandson Tu Zhou without leaving a trace, but still successfully caused an internal conflict among Zhong Xian and others.
Even the Demon Lord personally took action, which not only worsened the relationship between Zhong Xian and the others, but also caused conflicts between the Demon Lord and Zhong Xian and the others.
On the contrary, Yu Xi was not only not hated by the Demon Lord, but also did not arouse the suspicion of Zhong Xian and others. He even established a reputation among the demons!
Really...it's amazing!
This is the concrete embodiment of making plans before taking action, strategizing and winning battles thousands of miles away!
How did Yu Xi manage to make every step so perfect?
Gongsun Ming felt that he had learned a lot from Yu Xi. He didn't care at all that Yu Xi was much younger than him. Instead, he respected Yu Xi very much and kept every move of Yu Xi in mind.
Since Yu Xi has already taken action, he can't hold back and must cooperate.
Thinking of this, Gongsun Ming immediately mixed in several demons under his control with the demons, and praised Yu Xi highly, taking this opportunity to make Yu Xi's reputation even better!
Now that the Demon Lord is back, he can't contact Yu Xi without permission, otherwise he will be easily discovered.
After some time, he must go to the Demon Palace in person!
Yu Xi had no idea what Gongsun Ming was thinking and planning at the moment. She was taking out the gift she had bought for Luo Chunxi from her storage ring.
The gift she bought was the eighteenth volume of a best-selling storybook in the human world. She heard that the author of the storybook was out for something, so the eighteenth volume was limited in quantity, and she had to work very hard to get it.
"I think Master might like it."
She stood on tiptoe and placed the storybook on the table, gently wagging her tail and looking at Luo Chunxi with anticipation.
Luo Chunxi looked at the scripture on the table and was silent for a moment.
【How come this is the one I bought...】
Master bought it himself?!
Yu Xi was stunned for a moment, then his ears drooped in frustration, and even his tail, which had just been happily raised, dragged to the ground.
She didn't want to embarrass Luo Chunxi, and was just trying to find an excuse to take the book back before Luo Chunxi refused to accept it, but Luo Chunxi picked up the book on the table, flipped through two pages, and said:
"That's exactly what I want to see. You're so thoughtful, Yu Xi. I like it very much."
Yu Xi saw Luo Chunxi pick up the storybook she gave her, and not only did she not refuse it but also expressed that she liked it very much. Her ears, which had just drooped, suddenly stood up again.
But doesn’t Master already have one?
She wanted to say something, but when Luo Chunxi's hand fell on her head and rubbed it, she couldn't say anything and just felt happy.
Although the master already had a copy, he didn't mention it at all and still accepted her gift.
Master is really as gentle as my mother!
She stood on tiptoe, rubbed her palm against Luo Chunxi's, raised her eyes and asked expectantly, "Master, can I sit on your lap?"
Seeing her like this, Luo Chunxi felt like there was a fox in front of him acting coquettishly with him. He tentatively scratched her palm, then quickly retracted his claws, waiting there with a strong sense of boundaries, just obediently hoping that she would reach out again.
Luo Chunxi didn't answer, but soon raised his hand and held her on his lap, asking her to read the storybook with him.
When she picked up Yu Xi, she sighed in her heart.
I've lived for so long but have never seen a little guy like Yu Xi. I can't hate him even if I want to.
Yu Xi was even happier.
She sat in Luo Chunxi's arms for a while, and then asked about Luo Chunxi's situation:
"Master, did you bring anyone back with you this time when you went out?"
Luo Chunxi was puzzled: "Who are you bringing back?"
Yu Xi thought for a moment and explained, "I heard that my brother and the others were picked up by Master from outside. I had a dream that Master would pick up another person, and that person's name was Gu An."
Seeing Yu Xi's seriousness, Luo Chunxi thought it was a bit absurd, but still said calmly:
"I brought Zhong Xian back because his ghostly energy was out of control and he even dared to attack me. I knocked him out, and the vengeful ghost in him kept haunting me. I got tired of it, so I brought him back."
Seeing Yu Xi blinking and looking at her, obviously very interested in this topic, she paused and continued, "Your second brother is so ignorant that he wants to eat me. I smashed him to pieces and brought back his head."
