This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 729 - 729: 609

Liang Yi, who had already returned to the Secret Realm with the aid of the power of the Shadow Law, merely noticed that his Sword Intent had been activated but had no idea how profound a psychological shadow he had left on Ren Wu.
"Chasing us for a whole year, just like a pesky plaster, we definitely have to leave him a little going-away present!"
Liang Yi wore a wicked smile, feeling quite pleased with his little prank.
"What's happening, Fellow Daoist Liang?"
Right as Liang Yi and Su Youyi had set foot onto the mountain, a familiar voice followed leisurely from behind.
"Senior Brother, mind your image..."
Turning around to see the puzzled look in Wan Tinggui's eyes, Su Youyi could only quietly nudge Liang Yi with her elbow.
"It's nothing, just suddenly thought of something amusing."
Liang Yi felt Wan Tinggui's half-smiling gaze and quickly composed himself, returning to his usual detached demeanor.
"Death of me, I feel like I've lost at least eight hundred or a thousand pounds on this trip, meow."
Grand Oranger tottered out from behind Wan Tinggui, taking tiny steps and sighing as he walked.
"We've finished investigating everything in the Moro Domain and Jinghe Domain, what about you?"
Liang Yi pulled out a map from his ring and casually tossed it to Grand Oranger.
Grand Oranger tilted his head back, opened his mouth wide and swallowed the map whole that Liang Yi threw, then after rubbing his belly, he said: "What problem could there be with me in charge? It's just that the Ghost Cultivators in Kui Ming Domain are really annoying, their noses are even sharper than dogs', nearly got caught several times."
Grand Oranger's expression looked somewhat scared, and Liang Yi and Su Youyi, who had been closely pursued by Ren Wu for a year, naturally understood this feeling very well.
"Although Ren Wu is mainly tracking your two's movements, his true self has always been stationed in the Redfeather City of Kui Ming Domain, so it's indeed not easy to investigate the flow of Spiritual Power under his watch."
Wan Tinggui flipped his hair and walked past Liang Yi and Su Youyi towards a luxurious courtyard, his expression showing a bit of weariness.
"I need a good bath to relax. Daoist Su, care to join? This is a hot spring I moved directly from Cloud Heaven Pool, just a soak can prolong life and keep the skin smooth, tender, white, and wise."
Wan Tinggui leaned one hand on the door then turned his head slightly to beckon Su Youyi with a wink, inviting her.
"Eh? Can I?"
Su Youyi originally didn't give it much thought, but she became somewhat tempted after Wan Tinggui mentioned it.
Not to mention Su Youyi, even Liang Yi had a momentary impulse. If it weren't for his gender, he would have asked Wan Tinggui if there was a hot spring for male cultivators.
Smooth, tender, white, and wise, and prolonging life—Liang Yi didn't care about those, he just wanted to see the Cloud Heaven Pool for himself.
As for overhearing the whispered conversations of girls while soaking in the hot springs, someone upright like Liang Yi certainly didn't entertain such thoughts.
"Senior Brother, I'll head over first!"
Su Youyi quickly waved at Liang Yi and excitedly ran towards Wan Tinggui.
"You stay with me..."
Catching something out of the corner of his eye, Liang Yi casually grabbed the scheming fat cat by the scruff of its neck and picked it up, saying with an expressionless face.
"Good buddy, trust me, it's for your own good. If you went, I'm afraid you'd be neutered on the spot."
"Meow, who's your good buddy! I'm a cat, not a person. I don't even have a gender!"
Grand Oranger flailed and kicked wildly in mid-air after having his fate's nape seized.
Hearing this, Liang Yi couldn't help but become curious; he had never paid attention to this before.
Glancing casually below Grand Oranger, Liang Yi was surprised to find that Grand Oranger indeed lacked that certain something.
"So, it's for your little life I'm considering, I'm worried you'll spend the rest of your life lying in bed being fed by me."
"Pah, so self-righteous, I don't believe you don't have ulterior motives."
Grand Oranger crossed his arms, sulking and brooding.
"People's hearts are full of all sorts of desires, but my conscience and moral principles help me restrain these desires so that they do not lead me to ruin."
Liang Yi spoke indifferently, being honest with himself.
"You're something, I would never read the Immortal Dynasty's altruistic regulations if they weren't written by you!"
Although Grand Oranger had long known about Liang Yi's shamelessness, he was once again shocked by Liang Yi's thick skin. What surprised him even more was that he could tell Liang Yi was posturing, but he still felt that Liang Yi made some sense.
While Liang Yi and Grand Oranger were bantering, three beams of starlight suddenly descended from the sky, but one of them made a sudden turn mid-way and fell towards the courtyard, while the other two directly landed beside Liang Yi and Grand Oranger.
"Hmm? This aura... It's He Zhiqing and the others!"
Liang Yi casually let go of Grand Oranger's nape, threw him onto the ground, and looked in surprise towards the two gradually dissipating beams of starlight beside him.
"Phew, we're finally back..."
A gentle, familiar voice sounded, and He Zhiqing's figure gradually became clear. Beside a clearly fatigued He Zhiqing was Ke Mengzhan, who had been traveling with him.
"Good thing we left swiftly, otherwise we might have been noticed by Xia Kun's subordinates."
Ke Mengzhan shook his head with a relieved smile.
"What a coincidence, we've also just got back."
Liang Yi greeted them cheerfully. Without prior coordination, they all managed to return at the same time.
