In the empty and dim hall, the candlelight flickered slightly and the night pearls glowed with a faint fluorescence.
In the center of the hall, a figure suddenly appeared on the main seat which was originally empty.
Su Yi was dressed in red, a long robe with wide sleeves. The flowing corners of his robe brushed the ground, raising up clouds of dust.
"Ahem..." Before he even sat down, he choked on the smell of dust.
She turned her head and looked around. There was nothing around, not a single shadow in sight. The doors and windows were in tatters, and the corners were occupied by spiders, insects and ants. She moved her feet, and a centipede rustled away from under her feet.
Originally, this place was dark and gloomy, and now it was even more eerie, almost comparable to a ghost house.
In fact, it's almost the same. After all, the territory of a demon is not much better than a ghost cave.
This was something Suyi had snatched from another giant monster. She had originally just lived there casually without complaining about it. But now, after getting used to living in humans' big houses and villas, she felt that her own nest was a bit shabby and not presentable enough.
And she remembered that when she conquered this place, all the demon servants became hers. What happened now? Have they all run away
She silently activated the connection with the demon servant. After a long time, an old demon finally came through the wall and bowed before her.
"Meet, meet the master."
"Where are the other demons?"
The old demon servant trembled and said, "The master has been in seclusion for too long. They are no longer suppressed and have all escaped."
In the demon world, this kind of thing is very common.
There is a legend that has been passed down here for a long time. Ten thousand years ago, there was a great battle between a god and a demon. The two fought till heaven and earth were dark, but there was no clear winner, so they stopped fighting and went back to their homes.
Half a year later, the demon returned to his territory, but he couldn't even find the door to his cave. It turned out that when he was away, his lair was raided and all his demon servants escaped.
And what about the immortal? On his way back, he accidentally entered an ancient forbidden place and got lost in it for 600 years before he came out. When he returned to the immortal palace, the crane spread its wings in front of the door, the fairy boy served him freshly brewed hot tea, and the fairy maid handed him an invitation, saying that the Emperor of Heaven invited all the immortals to watch the dance in Yaochi, and the immortal came back just in time.
This is it, God is stronger than the devil, and the devil can be pissed off to death.
Su Yi frowned. In addition to the magic servants, she also had a group of magic generals under her command.
In the demon world, her strength makes her the most likely person to aspire for the position of Demon Lord, but Su Yi is tired of fighting and has no intention of going further, while her subordinates are restless and want to leave or stay, but Su Yi never asks.
Now it seems that since even the demon servants have almost all run away, there will be no demon generals left.
"How long have I been away?" Sue asked again.
The old demon servant made the number three with shaking hands.
"Thirty years?" Su Yi raised his eyebrows.
She had spent almost that long in the world of the book, no wonder the cave was so dilapidated when she came back.
The old demon servant shook his head and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a cough.
"Three years?" Su Yi guessed again.
If it had been three years, it would be normal for the demon generals and servants to leave. Demons are unrestrained by nature. It would be strange if they didn't run away after she had been away for so long and there was no one to intimidate them.
“… No,” the old demon servant shook his head and said with difficulty: “The master has been away for three months.”
Sue's face darkened.
Only three months later, her kingdom was gone?!
No matter how much she thought, she couldn't help herself now. After all, no one expected to be able to compete with the immortals, but she couldn't be outdone by the legendary demon, right? It took half a year for her to have her lair raided.
She was a little unwilling to give up, "Are they really all gone? Not a single one left?"
The old demon servant shook his head slowly, "There is still... ahem... one more person left—"
Before he could tell who it was, Su Yi asked, "Is it the Demon Wolf?"
"Yes, General Wolf is also in seclusion."
Su Yi nodded, and her frown relaxed. The other demons left, but as long as her wolf was still there, that was enough.
After this interruption, the melancholy of being away from the world of books has faded a lot. Now when I think about it, there are more happy and beautiful memories.
Su Yi waved away the old demon servant, added a few restrictions to the demon wolf's cave to prevent other demons from disturbing it, and then changed his clothes and went out.
Three months later, the demon world is still the same demon world. Every day, demons disappear and some are born from the darkness.
No one here is innocent and harmless. Even the only remaining old demon servant, Sui could smell the scent of other demons from him - it is still unknown how many of the demon servants in the cave escaped and how many entered his stomach.
The law of the jungle is the most basic law of survival in the demon world.
Su Yi took a trip around the demon world and when she came back, she was not surprised to find that the cave had become more dilapidated. If it continued like this, she would not have to worry about other demons coming to raid her lair, because others would simply look down on it.
The demon wolf had not come out yet. Su Yi took a look and saw that the restriction was intact, so he was not worried.
She returned to her cave and took out an object shaped like a compass. This was the Samsara Mirror, a magical tool that could help practitioners to temper their minds. The two worlds inside and outside the mirror were so different that even the passage of time was out of sync.
For practitioners, the Samsara Mirror is a rare treasure, but it is useless to a demon like Su Yi. Others use it to practice, and she uses it to pass the time.
He tapped the mirror with his fingers, and a ball of furry fluorescence emerged. When it took shape, it turned out to be a ball of fur. It was the spirit of the Reincarnation Mirror.
Mao Tuan looked at Su Yi with the resentful eyes of a heartless man.
Su Yi originally wanted to say that it had only been a short time since they last met, what happened? Then she realized that her time was different from Maotuan’s. She had spent some time in the Demon Realm, while Maotuan had been in the Reincarnation Mirror for who knows how many years. So her conscience was suddenly condemned.
She took the fur ball into her arms and rubbed it, coaxing him: "Don't be angry, I'll take you with me next time."
Mao Tuan's round face was tense for three seconds, then he couldn't hold it anymore and said with a pursed mouth: "You agreed to this yourself, I didn't say anything."
"Yes, that's what I said." Su Yi smiled.
The fur ball was satisfied, but in the next moment he changed his tone to an anxious one. He took out a long, silver hair with a faint blue hue from somewhere and said, "Yiyi, there were other outsiders in our last world!"
Su Yi took the hair and looked at it carefully, thinking, "There are other outsiders, didn't you notice?"
“Hmm…” Maotuan looked guilty.
It guessed that the outsider followed Sui in. At that time, it was the most dissatisfied with the Great Devil. Even if it felt something strange, it just thought it was a problem of poor coordination between itself and the Great Devil. It did not investigate further until Sui left that world and the other party was exposed.
Su Yi asked again: "Who is that outsider?"
Mao Tuan quickly said: "It's Xiao Yan!"
Su Yi said "oh" and didn't say anything for a long time.
Mao Tuan looked at her face and wanted to make up for his mistake, so he continued, "But he is different from you, Yi Yi. You are the master of the Samsara Mirror, so you can keep your memory and strength. As an intruder, he can only disguise himself as a character in the book under the suppression of the owner. In other words, he has no previous memories and grew up as Xiao Yan. His memory will not return until you leave."
Sue nodded slowly.
"What's strange is that he spent so much effort but did nothing. I can't see any ill intention in him. Then why did he go to so many lengths to invade? What's the point?" Mao Tuan looked confused.
Sue did not answer, but asked, "Is he gone now?"
Maotuan nodded and said, "I left, just before you summoned me, Yiyi."
Su Yi said: "Please choose another world for me."
"Ah?" Mao Tuan was surprised, "Now? We haven't caught that guy yet."
"Don't grab him." Sue said.
Maotuan didn't understand what was going on, but he obeyed obediently, "What kind of plot do you want?"
"Anyway, you can only use someone as cannon fodder to hone your mind, so you don't have to pick one specifically. Just find a character with the same name as me." Su Yi said casually, and at the same time summoned the old demon servant and left him a message: "If the demon wolf comes out of seclusion, tell him that I am in seclusion again."
After the demon servants retreated, she set up restrictions and entered the world chosen by Maotuan.
After a slight feeling of being suspended in the air, Sui stood still.
She was now in an alley with a suitcase in her hand. Judging from the surrounding buildings, it was from a similar era to the last century.
Su Yi was very satisfied with this. After spending a few days of poor life in the demon world, she missed the big villa and luxury car a little.
She looked at her current body again. She was a woman, and judging by the condition of her skin, she looked very young, with fair skin, slender limbs, and an impeccable figure. Most importantly, she had a huge breast.
As a demon, she can shape her own body, but Su Yi has always been flat. It's not that she doesn't like it, but fighting with big breasts is too cumbersome.
In the last life, as a poor girl, she didn't dare to make herself too plump. But now, there is a ready-made one, so she doesn't have to fake it.
She looked around again and found a metal plate in front of her. She went over to take a picture and discovered that this face was also very good-looking, comparable to the one in the previous world, and she could definitely make a living with her face.
She nodded, thinking that it was good, and then asked Maotuan the crucial question: "Do I have money now?"
“… In the past.”
Su Yi didn't give up and asked again: "Where is the big villa? Where is the big luxury car?"
"There used to be..."
“So, I’m a poor guy now?”
Mao Tuan said quickly: "It's not too poor. Although the Su family went bankrupt, Su Yi has an apartment under her name. She doesn't have much cash on hand, but she still has a lot of luxury goods. They can be worth a lot of money if they are sold."
"That's good enough." Su Yi said, as long as you are not too poor and have enough money to spend, it's fine.
She dragged her suitcase forward. After a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at the little figure behind her.
The child had been staring at her since a while ago, and he looked young, perhaps five or six years old, with a cute haircut, holding a toy model in his hands, and still had baby fat on his face. But his expression wasn't very cute, and looked like a fierce puppy, ready to bite someone at any time.
Sui stopped, and he stopped too, but his eyes were still fixed on her.
Su Yi didn't bother with the child and continued walking. When he looked back, he saw the child still following him like a tail, with an even more ferocious expression, like a little wolf cub.
She wasn't brought up to be scared. Su Yi ignored him and continued to talk to Mao Tuan in her spiritual consciousness: "Where am I going?"
"He took the luxury goods in his suitcase and exchanged them for money, then fled far away alone."
Sue nodded and continued walking, focusing only on the first half of the sentence without thinking about the meaning of the second half.
As the road came to an end, the child was still there. Although he had short arms and legs, he could still walk, but he was obviously tired. His face was pink, his hair was a little sweaty, but his lips were pale and pursed. He looked stubborn, perhaps feeling that he could not keep up, and a little panic finally revealed in his fierce eyes.
Su Yi looked at him again, feeling a little pitiful, and asked Mao Tuan: "Who is he and why is he following me?"
Mao Tuan obviously hesitated for a moment before he said cautiously, "Yi Yi, he is your son."
The author has something to say: The Big Devil: You can stay at home and your baby will come to you from heaven.
The future villain who is still a puppy: bite and won't let go.
