I twitched my mouth and tried to step back to increase the distance between us. However, before I could even move, I saw his right hand on my shoulder and his left hand on my waist. This movement was done by him very naturally, as if he had already repeated it a thousand times.

"If it's inconvenient for Fellow Daoist Yan Jing to say so, then forget it." In any case, I, this little fish demon's tofu has almost been completely eaten by him, so hugging it a few more times is no big deal to me, just bear with it and it'll be over.

"There is no inconvenience. Speaking of which, this place was still within the Kunlun Mountains … The Xuanhua Realm of the Eastern Mountain of Karakorum, have you heard of the Little Fish Demon before? "

I forced myself to keep my composure and chuckled dryly. "Fellow Taoist Yan Jing sure knows how to joke around."

Is this a cross-racial joke, the East Mountain of Mount Kunlun, not a famous forbidden area? Since it's a forbidden area, the consequences of trespassing must be very serious. Who knows, this little fish demon might really turn into a pot of fragrant fish soup …

Thinking about this, my body shivered. I looked up at the sun and discussed with him in a sincere tone, "It's getting late. I believe that Fellow Yan Jing still has something to attend to. Why don't we part ways here?"

Unexpectedly, Yan Jing acted as if he didn't hear me, as he carried me forward.

His hands were too strong to break free, so I had no choice but to quietly doze off with my eyes half-closed.

After walking for a while, the scenery before his eyes gradually became brighter. The weeds on the ground became sparser, and there was an extra path made of white stones. The towering trees on both sides of the road were gone as well, and were replaced with a vast area of endless flower beds. I took a quick glance at it, among which there were meerschaum and peonies, peonies and camellias, and all kinds of other famous flowers in the world. There were even epiphyllum flowers, but the strangest thing was that these flowers, which were of different seasons, bloomed so beautifully that they did not wither.

For some reason Yan Jin stopped in front of the flower bed. I wanted to struggle a little to protest, but then I thought that if he wanted to let me go, he would let me go.

"Little Devil Fish, what do you think of this place?"

My eyelids were already drooping, but when I heard his question, I immediately perked up and nodded. "Very good, very good. These flowers are blooming red and big …"

"Oh? Tell me about the Little Fish Demon, what's the good of it? "

"What's good is …"

Just as I was about to make up some nonsense to explain myself, a sudden wave of dizziness hit me without any warning. Before my blurry vision went away, I only remembered the phoenix eyed man's anxious and terrified expression — —

Fellow Yan Jing, I am not related to you in any way, why do you put on such a dead appearance?

Fortunately, you encountered my Little Fishy Demon. If you were to be carelessly misunderstood by other girls, how bad would that be … Ah …

When he woke up again, he saw the familiar white canopy.

I stretched my body and sat up, feeling refreshed. Just as I was about to go out for a walk, I heard a shout from the door that was filled with energy, "Master!" Following that was a long period of nagging: "Look, look. I told you my master was fine. My master is so amazing, how could anything happen to him? "It was clearly you who were too concerned …"

Hearing this voice, there was no need to think to know it was Little Black.

He had two short legs the size of reeds, and beneath his tiny paws was the thin fur on the head of the greyhound servant. Unlike Blacky who looked very angry, the greyhound servant looked very worried as he stared fixedly in my direction.

I turned my head and decided to ignore Blacky for the time being. "What time is it?"

He rubbed his chubby front paws together with his long, fluffy ears and sighed deeply. After a long period of silence, he slowly said, "Master, you've been sleeping for three days and three nights."

Hm? Three days and three nights?

That would be sleeping soundly... It's been a while.

I blinked and looked out the window. It was not even noon yet, but I was relieved. Well, it was actually only for three days.

"What happened in the past three days?"

"Not at all. However, there's a guest outside the forest who just arrived. "

Eh? A guest had actually come to my lousy little forest?

This really makes me, a little fish monster, feel inexplicably honored.

The one who came was Bi Siniang.

Because the sun was shining brightly, I used magic to make a simple bamboo table and two bamboo beds by the pond. The greyhound servant kindly brought over some green tea and various dried fruits.

"Qingyin, sometimes I really envy you."

These words were said in a completely random manner. I was stunned before I asked, "Envy me?" "Why?"

Aunt Thirteen lowered her head and stroked her green wide sleeves, a bitter smile on her face as she said, "In the Eighteen Pit Creek, you are well-known to be an idle person. You normally don't care about everything else. But now, you have gained the favour of the Master of the Cave and were recommended to be apprenticed to the Twelve Palaces. How can I not be envious of you? "

I picked up a dried fruit and took a bite. "Aunt Thirteen, you're following the Seventh Princess of the Dragon Palace in the North Sea. This isn't a bad job."

For example, that close friend of mine, Liuhuo, yearned wholeheartedly for the carefree days of the Dragon Palace. Unfortunately, he was still unable to obtain what he wanted in the end.

"That's just... "On the surface, it looks impressive." Thirteen Mother's tone sounded very emotional.

I looked at her strangely, hesitated, and continued to eat my fruit without speaking.

Because, in my opinion, things like this were originally unclear to me. Besides, this road was originally chosen by me. Since I chose, I have to bear the consequences. If Bi Sanniang hadn't been able to make it in, she probably wouldn't know how to feel depressed and conflicted at the moment. Originally, little demons like us can live comfortably as long as we think too much.

"Qingyin, I know you don't like these things, but right now, other than you, I don't have any close friends in the Kunlun Mountains … "Yes."

There were a few faint sighs in her words. I could not bear to hear it, so I asked, "Are you doing well?"

Thirteen's mother had a mocking smile on her face. "Do you know how many maids the Seventh Princess has chosen this time?"

I shook my head and handed him a cup of tea.

"A total of thirty-six."

That really wasn't a small number. Was the Seventh Princess of the Dragon Palace planning to give a training course for little demonic maids?

"Actually, she can't be blamed for this." As Aunt Thirteen said this, a cold smile appeared on her face. "The future crown prince's consort – this title only sounds glorious to me. Qing Yin, do you know why His Highness the Emperor suddenly decided to take Princess Long Qi of the North Sea as his concubine? "

I shook my head and handed him another dried fruit.

"This is going to involve the case from three hundred years ago."
