Divine Emperor Demon Emperor

To the Martial Artists of the Eastern Heart Domain, the name He Shang was synonymous with the Death God. As a Demon Fiend from the Death Row Shelter, He Shang’s Assassination Technique had reached the pinnacle of perfection. Anyone he targeted, even someone at the Limit of the Celestial Spirit Realm, was more likely to die than live.

Moreover, like Wei Yunhang, He Shang was also a Demon Fiend who had made it onto the Green Hero Venerable List. In the entire Eastern Domain, only he and Wei Yunhang had managed to do so. In fact, He Shang’s ranking on the Green Hero Venerable List was even a bit higher than Wei Yunhang’s.

Upon hearing that He Shang had arrived in Wind City, Guang Xuanji instructed her personal Maid, ”Take Young Master He to the Wind City headquarters. Tell him I will be there later.”

The Maid replied respectfully and then exited the room. Gazing at her older sister’s Guqin, Guang Xuanji asked out of the blue, ”Sister, what does it feel like to like someone?”

As she said this, the image of Lin Yun appeared in her mind.

Lin Yun knew nothing about these developments with Guang Xuanji, nor of He Shang’s arrival, because at that very moment, Mo Qingshui had already reached the Bai Family.

Mo Qingshui had come to the Bai Family to see her younger sister. Luo Feng hadn’t accompanied her this time, presumably because he had to guard the Flawless Array in the palace.

Lin Yun was naturally summoned to the main hall as well. He arrived alone at the Bai Family Main Hall, and the moment he stepped inside, he sensed a strange atmosphere. Mo Qingliu was actually sitting right next to Bai Ling, while Mo Qingshui sipped her tea with a frosty expression.

Unsure of what to say, Lin Yun simply offered a brief greeting to the three of them and found a seat for himself.

Mo Qingshui remained silent, but Bai Ling was busy amusing Mo Qingliu.

”Qingliu, which is more fun, the Bai Family or the Mo Family?” Bai Ling asked.

”The Bai Family is more fun,” Mo Qingliu replied almost without a second thought.

Seeing her younger sister getting along so splendidly with Bai Ling, Mo Qingshui felt a knot tighten in her chest. ’This is my own sister! She just arrived at the Bai Family and has already been charmed by that vixen Bai Ling.’

As Mo Qingshui’s expression darkened, Bai Ling deliberately shot her a faint smile—a clear provocation.

Just then, Shi Wu also entered the main hall. Before he could even speak, Mo Qingshui, who had been simmering with rage, finally found an outlet. She immediately let out a cold snort at Shi Wu.

”Shi Wu, I told you to protect the Second Young Miss. Look at the fine job you’ve done. Tell me, where were you last night?”

Berated by Mo Qingshui the moment he walked in, Shi Wu shot a bewildered look at Lin Yun. In response, Lin Yun simply turned his head away, showing no intention of getting involved.

Poor Shi Wu became Mo Qingshui’s personal punching bag. After a lengthy tirade, having vented much of her frustration, Mo Qingshui’s expression finally brightened a little.

Looking at Mo Qingliu, Mo Qingshui said with a smile, ”Qingliu, how about I take you out to have some fun in the city today?”

Hearing this, Mo Qingliu chirped happily, ”Okay! But we have to invite Sister Bai Ling. She promised to take me to all the fun places in Wind City.”

Hearing this, Mo Qingshui glanced at Bai Ling, who was looking right back at her with a grin. Annoyed, Mo Qingshui said, ”Bai Ling, my sister came to Wind City. It should be up to me to show her around. What business is it of yours?”

The moment Mo Qingshui finished speaking, before Bai Ling could even respond, little Mo Qingliu scurried over to her older sister, tugged on her hand, and pleaded, ”Sister, Sister Bai Ling isn’t what you think! She’s really nice. You can’t blame her for what happened before. Sister, please, let’s bring her along.”

It looked like the little girl had been completely won over by Bai Ling. Not only did she no longer resent her, but she was now defending her at every turn. In a single evening, Bai Ling had thoroughly captured Mo Qingliu’s heart.

Unable to resist her younger sister’s pleading, Mo Qingshui finally gave a helpless nod of agreement. ’Fine, we’ll bring Bai Ling along.’

Seeing her sister agree, Mo Qingliu was eager to head out and play. Lin Yun was just about to make an excuse to slip away when Bai Ling spoke up first.

”Young Master Lin, with the three of us ladies going out, don’t you intend to protect us?”

Looking at Bai Ling’s smiling face, Lin Yun screamed internally. ’You and Mo Qingshui are both Celestial Spirit Realm experts! Who in Wind City could possibly be a match for you? And you want me, someone at the Eighth Layer of Primordial Ocean Realm, to be your protector?’

That was what he was thinking, but on the surface, Lin Yun said, ”Patriarch Bai, I, ah, have some things to attend to this afternoon, so I’m afraid…”

Lin Yun was trying to make an excuse to get out of it, but before he could finish, Mo Qingshui cut him off. ”Your master specifically said that you’re responsible for my safety while I’m in Wind City, you know.”

With Luo Feng brought into it, Lin Yun was left with no choice. In the end, he followed the three women out of the Bai Family.

With Lin Yun accompanying them, Shi Wu was off the hook. Mo Qingshui told him to just rest at the Bai Family. As for Lin Yun, he had now taken over Shi Wu’s role, trailing behind the three women as they began to wander through Wind City.

”I want this one! This is so cool…”

”And this one! This hairpin is so pretty…”

They had only just arrived on Wind City’s most prosperous street, but Mo Qingliu was already buying everything in sight. The little girl clearly had no shortage of money—if she saw something she liked, she bought it.

In the short span of a few hundred meters, Mo Qingliu was on a constant shopping spree, while Lin Yun could only trail behind, steadily accumulating her purchases.

”I mean, why did you three have to drag me along for your shopping trip? Couldn’t you have just brought one of the servants from the residence?” Lin Yun complained, his patience completely worn out.

”Fine, go on back then,” Bai Ling replied with a smile. ”The next time I see your master, I’ll just have to tell him how you have absolutely no respect for his two wives.”

Using Luo Feng to threaten him again. Defeated, Lin Yun said no more. ’I’ll just consider this part of my cultivation.’ Tailing the three women, Lin Yun was now officially their gofer.

It had to be said, the three women were all stunningly beautiful. Furthermore, the average citizen of Wind City didn’t recognize Bai Ling, so as they walked down the street, their ability to turn heads was at one hundred and twenty percent.

Countless lecherous eyes were fixed on the three of them. Noticing this, Bai Ling laughed and teased Lin Yun, ”See? With so many pairs of lustful eyes staring at us, how could we possibly manage without a man for protection?”

Hearing this, Lin Yun muttered irritably, ”With your cultivation, you could release a tiny bit of Elemental Power and scare every single one of these people half to death.”

Bai Ling simply gave a small smile at Lin Yun’s words and said no more.

Shopping really must be a woman’s nature. Even Celestial Spirit Realm experts like Bai Ling and Mo Qingshui seemed to transform into ordinary women on this bustling street. Gazing at the dazzling array of goods lining both sides, they looked left and right, completely indistinguishable from the common folk.
