The heavy snow that had been falling for two days finally stopped, but the sun still didn't rise.
Early in the morning, the shops along the street began to sweep away the snow in front of their doors, waving bamboo branches and brooms in full swing.
Suning got up relatively late, close to noon.
It's not that he's snoozing, but that after his cultivation reaches the level of Seventeenth True Immortal, he wants to reach the Eighteenth level of True Immortal in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, he failed.
The unexpected failure also gave him a deeper understanding of his state of mind.
"call."
Get up and get out of bed, and remove the small demon gathering array.
After washing up, Suning went to the pharmacy in the front yard.
The store door was indeed open, and Demon Lord Chilong was lying on the armchair behind the counter, drinking tea.
The posture is lazy, half awake and half asleep.
Surrounding my feet was a small stove that I didn't know where to get. The charcoal fire was prosperous and the temperature was pleasant.
Hearing the sudden stop of footsteps, her eyelids moved slightly and she said without raising her head: "With the way you do business, this store will be closed sooner or later."
"Look at Xie Hongchun and his wife, they got up before dawn and cleared the snow in front of their door."
"It's better for you. You can sleep until noon. I still need an outsider to open the store door."
"Oh, what is this called?"
With a grumble, she held up the delicate jade tea bowl and brought it to her lips, took a sip and said, "Fortunately, Xie Hongchun is so kind. Seeing that you didn't get up, I simply helped you sweep the one-third acre of land in front of your door."
"Well, also, there was a herb collector who came to sell some old ginseng plants some time ago. I collected sixteen or seventeen old ginseng plants of good vintage on your behalf."
"The goods are on the shelf behind the third row, please check."
Suning's eyes flashed with strange light, and he said in surprise: "The sun has come out in the west? You, the great demon king, actually know how to help me with my work?"
Chilong Demon Lord said with emotion: "I thought about it all night last night and figured out something a little bit."
"Although you are half my enemy, you are also my demon disciple in the demon world."
"God has sworn that I will most likely not escape the miserable fate of being your little follower in this life."
"In that case, why not put aside your grudges and protect your safety wholeheartedly."
"In the future, I will have hard work without any merit, so you can't turn your back on me, right?"
"You are shameless, my ancestor is shameless, and my rules in the demon world cannot be broken."
"Either you take the initiative to give me my freedom, or I will go wherever you go. If one day you can ascend to the sixteen great worlds, I can follow you and get some light of the saint, and my fortune will be endless."
"How do you say that? One person can achieve the goal of a chicken or a dog ascending to heaven."
"It's all beneficial and no harm..."
Shaking her head, she pulled her free left hand toward the void, and she quickly pulled out a jade slip.
"Give."
"This is my state of mind from the seventeenth level of a true immortal to the nineteenth level of a true immortal."
"Maybe it's not as good as Jiang Lin'an's memory inheritance, but it's definitely faster than just thinking about it on your own."
Suning took it expressionlessly, checked it carefully to make sure it was OK, and then placed it between his eyebrows.
Chilong Demon Lord continued: "The question I asked you last night was not intended to take the opportunity to damage your Taoist heart."
"I just want to tell you that Qiao Hongpo's death was due to differences in stance."
"As you said, people's hearts are selfish."
"I was imprisoned in Shuiyun Immortal Realm by Jiang Linan for nearly ten thousand years, and manipulated by Qiao Wantang to run around the Immortal Realm with sixteen gold rune chains."
"I am of the majestic Chilong bloodline, and have a cultivation level of the 18th level of a true immortal. I was the first of the five hundred demon lords back then."
"I have my pride, I want to regain my freedom, and I want to return to the demon world."
"Am I wrong?"
Her closed eyes suddenly opened, her legs fell to the ground, and she said with unsteady breath: "Taking matters into consideration and comparing feelings with each other, if Suning can forgive Duan Ziqian and not seek revenge against him, then I, Chi Xiaoqiu, can forgive Jiang Lin'an and will
Take off this head and give it to you to pay homage to Qiao Hongpo."
Suning remained silent, not listening to what was going on outside the window, trying hard to absorb the insights in the jade slip.
Until the jade slip exploded into ashes, he took a long breath and asked curiously: "Your name is Chi Xiaoqiu?"
