3000 Years In The Meditation Phase!

Chapter 40 Demon Race

“We should return to the palace again. After leaving the restaurant that was supposedly the crime scene, Zuo Yanfei suggested, “The guards who followed the Crown Prince at that time must have known where the Crown Prince really died. We have to move faster. I’m afraid the murderer will attack these witnesses.”

“Yeah.”

Tang Ruowei nodded, but at this moment, Bai Qiuran suddenly raised her hand.

“Um, Senior Sister, Sister Zuo Yanfei.”

“Hmm? Junior Brother Bai, what’s wrong?”

Zuo Yanfei asked curiously.

“Now that the case seems somewhat strange, I don’t think I can help you much.”

Bai Qiuran pretended to be ashamed and said, “In order to prevent me from dragging you down, I’ll stay in the palace.’

Tang Ruowei walked into Bai Qiuran and

asked softly with her back facing Zuo Yanfei, “Master, what are you doing?”

||

“I’ll go somewhere else and meet with a friend.”

Bai Qiuran’s mouth did not move, but her divine sense sent such a message into Tang Ruowei’s mind.

Tang Ruowei immediately recalled the “friend” Bai Qiuran had met in the shop operated by the Acacia Faction to obtain information.

Tang Ruowei immediately felt somewhat uncomfortable when she recalled that the entire Acacia Faction was filled with women. Presumably, this friend was also a woman. However, she was still clear-headed. Firstly, she had already accepted this job. It was impossible for her to abandon Zuo Yanfei and go to the pleasure street with Bai Qiuran. Secondly, this trip down the mountain was her own training. According to the rules, even Bai Qiuran should not have followed her.

Bai Qiuran’s strength was extraordinary. If he went to any dangerous place in the future and Tang Ruowei wanted to follow, she had to have matching strength. Otherwise, she would only be a burden and increase Bai Qiuran’s worries.

Therefore, she paused and replied, “I understand. Junior Brother, you can stay behind. Leave this matter to me and Sister Yan Fei.”

…

In the small courtyard behind the Joy Realm, a beautiful woman in white clothes and black hair was stroking the zither in front of her.

The zither music was long and drawn-out, mixed in with the rustling of the bamboo leaves in the wind, making one feel relaxed and happy. The zither music carried a soul-stirring charm that made one yearn for the person who was playing the zither.

Suddenly, there was a trace of noise in the wind and the zither. Su Xiangxue did not stop playing and only sighed.

“Can I trouble you to use the door next time

you come in?”

“I don’t really like your disciples. They’re too flirtatious.”

A breeze mixed with leaves formed in the courtyard, revealing a figure in the wind.

A beautiful woman with emerald-green hair

and a green gauze dress appeared in Su Xiangxue’s courtyard. She bowed to Su Xiangxue.

“Long time no see, Princess.”

“I’m not a princess.’

||

Su Xiangxue sighed and stopped playing. “Since you’re here, it means that those little guys active in the country are indeed from the demon race?”

“Yes, recently, we were sent out to bring all the demons in the Nine Continents and Ten Lands to the Demon Realm.”

The green-haired woman looked up at Su Xiangxue.

“Miss… Xiangxue, are you really unwilling to listen to Cui Luo and return to the Demon

Realm?”

“I am a human and not a demon. Why should I return to the Demon Realm?”

Su Xiangxue calmly picked up the teapot and teacup on the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

“The lifespan of the Demon Emperor is about to end.”

The woman who called herself Cui Luo spat out a shocking sentence.

Su Xiangxue’s hand paused imperceptibly before she continued, “What does that have to do with me?”

“After the death of the crown prince 2,000

years ago, the Demon Emperor did not appoint another heir. Now that the Demon Emperor is about to die, the ten kings of the Demon Realm are tempted…”

“He only has himself to blame. If the crown prince had not ordered the Ten Slaughter of Lin Continent back then, the Green Destiny Sword Ancestor would not have directly killed

him.”

Su Xiangxue said without looking up, “Moreover, since he’s so promiscuous, why doesn’t he give birth to two more? Now, he wants me to clean up his mess. Isn’t he

embarrassed?”

Cui Luo was instantly speechless.

“Go, go. The Acacia Faction’s intelligence network has already found the location of those small demons. As for the exact location,

just go to the entrance and get someone to

bring you there.”

Su Xiangxue raised her hand and said, “This matter is indeed related to the human sects,

but I hope you can act calmly. It wasn’t easy for you to obtain 2,000 years of peace. It’s not good for the humans and demons to start a

war again.”

“In that case, I will take my leave.”

The green-haired woman bowed deeply again. A whirlwind mixed with leaves enveloped her entire body before disappearing. After Cui Luo left, Su Xiangxue sat quietly for a moment before suddenly saying, “Come out. She’s already gone.”

Squeak.

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Qiuran pushed open the courtyard door and walked

out while rubbing his nose.

“Heh, I really didn’t expect that the great Bai Qiuran would one day have to hide from

others.”

Su Xiangxue turned to look at him, her eyes

filled with smiles.

“Could it be that you’re afraid?”

“No, as you said, I’m only thinking about the peace between the humans and the demons.”

Bai Qiuran sat opposite Su Xiangxue

resentfully.

“After all, not only did I kill the demon prince back then, but I also killed her mother… And

this demon Cui Luo is definitely not a demon who can think calmly.”

Su Xiangxue took out a teacup and poured tea for Bai Qiuran.

“And I’m not someone like Jade-faced Buddha who doesn’t fight back. If she fights me, I can

only fight back passively. For the sake of her life, it’s better for me to not appear in front of her.”

“Actually, 2,000 years can long dilute

hatred.”

Su Xiangxue rolled her eyes.

“If you had listened to my suggestion back then and let Cui Luo beat you up, you might

have long resolved this grudge today. With

your strength, it’s not as if you would die

from the beating.”

“Why do I have to take her beating and not

fight back?”

“She’s not my mother.” Bai Qiuran asked. “Forget it, I don’t hate seeing you like this.” “Keep it up.” Su Xiangxue patted his shoulder and said.

Bai Qiuran drank the tea in front of her in one gulp, while Su Xiangxue began to play the zither.

“Speaking of which, why have you stopped playing your lovey-dovey game with your disciple? Why did you come to my place?” “Are you no longer traumatized by the Acacia Faction?” As she played, Su Xiangxue asked. “No, I just saw that a fox demon was involved in the assassination of the Ding Country’s crown prince and came to inform you.” Bai Qiuran sighed.

“After all, it’s been 2,000 years. These young people probably don’t know what that kind of fox demon represents in the demon race. However… judging from the situation just

now, you probably already know about this. Then, just consider it as me coming to have a

cup of tea.”

“Are you going to ignore your disciple?”

Su Xiangxue asked.

“The guy who killed the crown prince is at most at the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm, and his methods are

incomparably crude.”

“Ruowei has a disciple of the Divine Martial

Heavenly Army beside her. If the two of them

can’t even deal with such a cultivator, I’ll

punish her when I return. The only problem now is that I’m afraid Cui Luo will be rash

and do something big like destroying a sect in the human race’s territory.” Bai Qiuran

replied.

“Then

why aren’t you going?”

“Why are you panicking? It’s not too late to go after Ruowei and the others find the place

where those little demons are hiding.”

“Or does Sect Master Su not welcome old people like us?” Bai Qiuran put down her

teacup and asked.

“Of course you’re welcome.”

The sound of the zither was long and drawn out. The white-robed beauty smiled charmingly, making one’s heart flutter. “If you don’t mind, you can even stay here for the night if you want.”
