Since the courtship in the spirit world is derived from animals, most of them follow the rules of animal courtship, that is, whoever is stronger gets the mate. Here, both females and males basically follow this rule, and they are proud to be courted by the stronger.
Therefore, the best way for Hei Yan to get rid of those demon women is to prove that he already has a spouse, for example, Lian Youyou can temporarily serve as a spouse. Lian Youyou's invisible evil spirit, which can make the demons deeply afraid, can effectively drive away those demon women and make them dare not surround Hei Yan.
Because Lian Youyou was telling them to get away, because this male cat already had an owner.
Here, monogamy is not important, and polygamy is not necessarily the norm. It is common for powerful demon women to have several male spouses. Non-human spouses are even more common.
Therefore, when Heiyan turned into a strong cat man, so many demon girls gathered around him. If they were human, they would have screamed and fainted. It can only be said that demons have different aesthetics from humans.
Here, it is the animal law, the most primitive law.
Heiyan felt a little aggrieved as he followed Lian Youyou. He meowed depressedly: "Meow, is it my fault that I am so handsome and invincible in the six realms?" Although he felt aggrieved, his lowered face revealed a joyful smile that he could not even describe.
"Hmph, stop being so conceited. I feel like vomiting. When it comes to handsomeness, you can't be more handsome than your brother." Lian Youyou said casually and walked towards Yunxi's shop.
But her casual remark made Hei Yan's face show resentment. This woman actually said that his brother was more handsome than him! But that bastard stabbed him in the back. If it wasn't for his brother, would he have become a captive of Genyang? Become Lian Youyou's gatekeeper monster
The reason they fell down now was also because of his brother. He even suspected that Lian Youyou always held back on his brother. Could it be because she saw that his brother was good-looking, so she didn't kill him
He took a few quick steps and raised his gloomy face: "Tell me the truth, when you fight with my brother, you always hold back, is it because you want him to look good?"
Lian Youyou paused, her eyes turned, she smiled wickedly, squinted her eyes and lowered her face, grinning at Heiyan: "That's right! I fight by looks, I can't bear to kill the good-looking ones. Hehehe." After Lian Youyou finished speaking, she reached out and touched Heiyan's cat head, then stood up and walked into the store. The sulking Heiyan was left standing alone at the door of the store, squatting aside with his arms folded across his chest.
He was so angry. How was his brother better than him except for his good looks?! If his brother could beat him, he wouldn't be the prince of the demon god!
Now, he is a prisoner, and this Demon Prince is his brother. This scheming bastard!
Hei Yan was sulking at the door, while Lian Youyou was choosing hairpins in the store. The things here were really good. The jewelry in this store were all made by fairies, using the fairies' smelting methods and underground gems. So some hairpins were exquisite, just like the luminous cup, which was definitely not something that could be found in the human world.
Well~~Lian Youyou felt that the luminous cup probably came from here.
There is not no communication between the upper and lower cities. Some merchants with rare goods are allowed to travel up and down here, bringing goods from the upper city to the lower city, and bringing rare goods from the lower city to the upper city. There are also many humans here. Of course, since you want to do business in the underground city, you will naturally keep the existence of the underground city a secret. This is the basis of doing business: honesty.
"Lord Yun, this is the hairpin you wanted." The cat owner in the shop brought Yun Xi an exquisite hairpin box. All the owners of the fine goods stores here who had dealings with the Nine Gates knew about the Nine Gates and knew Yun Xi and his sister from the Nine Gates. Naturally, they did not dare to provoke the Nine Gates.
Yunxi carefully took the box and opened it. Inside was a gorgeous red plum hairpin. The blood-red body of the hairpin looked like a branch watered with blood. The gorgeous color was like a red plum blossom in the snow, instantly catching people's attention.
"If I were you, I would give this to your sister." Lian Youyou turned around and leaned against the counter.
The cat owner of the shop immediately became respectful when he saw Lian Youyou: "Oh, I wonder who this distinguished guest is..." No matter if it was a demon or a monster, there was still this look in his eyes. Although Lian Youyou deliberately concealed her aura so that people could not identify it, her fresh fragrance also let the monsters here know that she was different from them.
Therefore, Boss Cat was extremely respectful to Lian Youyou. Even though he could not tell Lian Youyou's identity, he knew that Lian Youyou must have profound magic. Those who came to the underground city were assumed to be demons. The demonic aura of these demons could be slowly removed through cultivation. Just like in the case of the mountain demon, Lian Youyou helped Xue Niang get rid of the demonic aura.
"Our new boss." Yun Xi introduced the cat boss as follows. The cat boss was a big orange cat, and his cat eyes narrowed with a smile: "Dear guests, I have some good hairpins, I will bring them to you right away." The cat boss entered the inner room with some respect.
Yunxi happened to ask Lian Youyou: "Boss, do you think Sanniang doesn't like this kind of hairpin?" Yunxi was a little nervous because he had been choosing this gift for a long time. Because he had a good relationship with Boss Mao, he asked Boss Mao to help him keep it, but this month was the final deadline.
Lian Youyou looked at Yun Xi from the side and said, "Do you know Sanniang's true identity?"
Yun Xi frowned slightly and looked at Lian Youyou cautiously: "Isn't she... a dragon?" Yun Xi knew that Sanniang belonged to the water demon clan, and the scent on Sanniang was similar to that of the dragon clan, so he always thought that Sanniang was a dragon girl.
"Hahaha—" Lian Youyou laughed, lowered her head and shook her head, "It turns out it can. The fragrance all over my body is to cover up the blood on my body. So guess... why is Sanniang dressed so gorgeously?" Lian Youyou tilted her chin slightly and looked at Yunxi's beautiful fox eyes again.
Yun Xi thought deeply for a moment, but hesitated. He didn't dare to guess. He couldn't guess what a woman was thinking, and he didn't dare to guess what Sanniang was thinking.
Lian Youyou saw through his thoughts and smiled with satisfaction: "You are right to think so. Sanniang has her own secrets. When she wants to tell you, she will tell you. But if you want to win her heart, you still need to work hard. Sanniang misses home, you should choose a piece of jewelry for her that looks like the sea."
Yun Xi suddenly realized something, but he felt distressed when he heard Lian Youyou say that Sanniang missed home. He frowned slightly and asked Lian Youyou with concern for Sanniang: "Boss, do you know why Sanniang didn't go home?"
Lian Youyou turned around and looked at the various jewelry on the counter: "It's not that she doesn't want to go back, it's that she can't go back."
Yunxi was slightly surprised. Why couldn't Sanniang return? Could it be that Sanniang, like her, was not accepted by her own tribe
While he was wondering, Boss Cat had already taken out a few hairpin boxes and respectfully placed them in front of Lian Youyou: "Dear guest, please see if there is a hairpin here that you like?"
Boss Cat opened the hairpin boxes one by one, and immediately, an extremely clear water blue hairpin caught Yunxi's eye. He grabbed it, and his heart told him that this was the one, the color of the sea. (To be continued)
