There’s Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Chapter 140: It's For My Lover

Chapter 140: It's For My Lover

The day finally dawned.

Lu Xun looked outside the window at the bright sky, and his heart couldn't help but fill with excitement. The break of day meant he could escape this snake's den and no longer endure inhuman abuse.

Thinking back to the painful experience of last night, Lu Xun didn't know what to say for a moment. The formidable and fierce demoness in his arms seemed like an abyssal monster. Despite his vocal upgrades and enhancements, he couldn't satisfy her demands. This thousand-year-old snake demoness seemed like a devourer of all things.

"Little thief."

Nestled in his embrace, Immortal Miao Feng blushed slightly on both cheeks, and her happiness was evident in her eyes. She spoke gently, her breath not too hurried, "Yesterday was passable, but it's not enough to match my body. You need to work harder."

Is… is that so?

Lu Xun suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, and he replied somewhat bitterly, "Well, I…"

Before he could finish speaking, Immortal Miao Feng raised her hand to lightly cover his mouth and looked at him with seductive eyes. She leisurely said, "Don't back down. My man, Lu Xun, will only become braver with each battle. Don't disappoint me, little thief."

Really? Now she's resorting to moral blackmail.

Lu Xun was almost on the verge of tears, but he couldn't blame anyone but himself for shamelessly coveting her body. He smiled wryly and said, "Yes, yes, sister, rest assured. I'll give you full satisfaction in the future. But, sister, could you please reveal what your limit is?"

"You can figure it out yourself. With Xuan Yin's 400 years of cultivation, it's already at the level of earth-shattering power. As for me, I've probably been around for 1,300 years or so? I've forgotten the exact number." Immortal Miao Feng smiled charmingly and said softly, "As you get older, some things are easy to forget. Anyway, the numbers are close. Can you figure it out?"

Hmm, three times the level of earth-shattering power, that's like creating the world from scratch. Uncomfortable, really uncomfortable.

Seeing his troubled expression, Immortal Miao Feng felt a hint of satisfaction in her heart. She pinched his cheek and scolded, "Who asked you to provoke a demoness? I initially thought you had some extraordinary abilities, but it turns out, with just your strength, not only dealing with me and Xuan Yin but even with Xuan Shi, that little fox, would be difficult."

Speaking of which…

She adjusted her body to the optimal position and said softly, "Xuan Shi is from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan. She not only has innate charm but also possesses a natural spiritual body. It's a pity that she has a playful nature, wasting her talents. I don't even know how to face the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan anymore."

"Are all members of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan beautiful?" Lu Xun asked curiously.

"…"

"What are you thinking?" Immortal Miao Feng suddenly became alert, furrowing her brows and staring at him seriously. She warned, "I advise you not to have any strange thoughts."

"Just asking casually." Lu Xun tightly held the big demoness in his arms and smiled shyly. He said, "Sister, don't be nervous. Although this little thief may have a bit of a roving eye, I have my own principles. In a river of women, I'll only take a sip."

"Hmph."

"That's for the best."

Immortal Miao Feng pouted and mumbled, "Indeed, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan is known for their exceptional beauty. Male fox demons are all handsome and dashing, while female fox demons are all charming and lovely, but their lifespans are not very long, only around three hundred years."

"Oh?"

"Then, the little fox, she…" Lu Xun became somewhat nervous and urgently asked, "Doesn't that mean she only has a hundred years left?"

"Xuan Shi is different." Immortal Miao Feng replied, "Since her childhood, I've given her various elixirs and miraculous medicines, altering her fate for the better. With her cultivation advancement, her lifespan will only get longer. So, there's no need to worry about her."

As she finished speaking, she looked at him with a puzzled expression and curiously asked, "Why are you so concerned about her?"

"The little girl is quite cute and interesting, and she's an indispensable part of this family. Naturally, I don't want her to leave." Lu Xun smiled and whispered in her ear, "You, Xuan Yin, and Xuan Shi, none of you are allowed to leave my side."

"You little rascal." Immortal Miao Feng looked at him with a seductive gaze, and she couldn't help but hug his waist affectionately. She mumbled, "How about you also hold onto the little fox?"

Hehehe, playing tricks with me, huh? This is clearly fishing for information!

"Cough, cough."

"Don't talk nonsense; I don't have such intentions." Lu Xun cleared his throat and said earnestly, "Sister, please don't say such things in the future. You might give the wrong impression to the little fox."

"Mmm." Immortal Miao Feng responded softly, resting gently on him, enjoying this rare moment of warmth.

…

In the afternoon, Lu Xun came alone to the largest temple in the capital, Kongming Temple, to cleanse his weary soul. The past few nights had taken a toll on him, and the suffering wasn't physical but rather mental exhaustion.

"Old Master?"

"Why are you frowning? Is there something wrong with this divination stick I drew for you?" Lu Xun looked at the old monk in front of him, who was frowning and not saying a word. He got worried and cautiously asked.

"This is strange." The old monk looked at the bamboo divination stick in his hand, then glanced at Lu Xun sitting across from him. He muttered to himself, "It's clearly an extremely auspicious divination, but looking at your appearance, it seems like you've recently been afflicted by fatigue."

Indeed!

Endless nights… have really taken a toll.

Lu Xun forced a smile and said, "My wife is quite fierce."

"Oh." The old monk suddenly realized and earnestly advised, "Even the most fairest maiden is just a skeleton inside, and the most enchanting beauty is just bones. Don't be attached to the worldly illusions, as they are all illusions that harm you."

Nonsense! This old monk is really something!

Lu Xun rolled his eyes, quietly paid his respects with some money, and then went to listen to the scriptures.

As he watched Lu Xun's departing figure, the old monk's expression became somewhat solemn. He had sensed a faint demonic aura from Lu Xun, clearly indicating that this benefactor's wife was not a human but a female demon who had cultivated into a human form.

Lu Xun sat in a corner, among a group of devout worshippers, listening to an elderly monk's sermon. Although he couldn't understand what was being said, the atmosphere gradually cleansed his mental fatigue and emptiness, leaving only the sublimation of his soul.

Soon, the sermon concluded, and Lu Xun prepared to leave.

However, a young monk blocked his path.

"Benefactor. The abbot wishes to speak with you."

"Oh? The abbot?"

Lu Xun was momentarily taken aback but followed the young monk. He soon arrived outside a room and, upon opening the door, saw two elderly monks inside. One of them was the monk who had drawn the divination for him earlier, and the other was likely the head of Kongming Temple.

"Hello, two venerable masters," Lu Xun greeted politely, with his hands clasped together, offering a bow of respect. He then calmly asked, "May I inquire as to why you have summoned me?"

"Namo Amitabha."

The elderly abbot had a compassionate expression as he stared at Lu Xun intently. He softly spoke, "Do you know that your wife is a demon?"

"What?!"

Lu Xun was incredulous and quickly retorted, "How is that possible? My wife cannot be a demon!"

"I found it hard to believe as well, but now… I am beginning to believe it. There is a faint trace of demonic energy on you. Ordinary people cannot have such energy unless they engage in pleasure with demons, which would result in them being tainted by demonic energy," the elderly abbot explained.

"I don't believe it!" Lu Xun stubbornly declared. "You must be deceiving me."

"I never speak falsely," the elderly abbot said with sincerity. "Benefactor, do not hold on to your delusions too tightly. If you persist in this path, you will harm yourself and others."

You understand nothing!

I'm protecting all of you!

Lu Xun pursed his lips, silently stood up, and casually said, "I am certain that my wife is not a demon."

With that said, he left without looking back, leaving the two elderly monks exchanging helpless glances, each with a resigned expression on their face.

"Senior Brother…"

"This person is beyond help. He's likely incurable," the monk who had drawn the divination stick said solemnly. "But that demoness cannot be allowed to act recklessly. I will secretly follow him and eliminate her."

The elderly abbot furrowed his brow and said calmly, "Didn't you notice, just now, that the benefactor possesses cultivation at the Late Heaven Realm?"

"What?"

"The Late Heaven Realm?" The divination monk was astonished and muttered to himself, "How is that possible? I… I didn't sense it."

"It should be some kind of technique used to conceal his cultivation, but even so, he couldn't hide it completely, and I detected traces of it," the elderly abbot said with a serious expression. He mumbled, "To deceive someone like him, it means that the female demon's cultivation is even more terrifying."

"Senior Brother…"

"Should we report this matter to the Great Guardian? If such strange occurrences happen under the Emperor's rule, Su Jingyi will not ignore it," the divination monk suggested.

"No need to trouble her. We can handle this minor issue ourselves," the elderly abbot said as he stood up. He spoke leisurely, "Come, let us go capture the demon together."

…

"Why are you here again?"

Su Jingyi reclined lazily on a couch, looking at Immortal Miao Feng, who had returned once more, with a somewhat bewildered expression. She turned her body slightly, concealing her well-shaped figure under her robe, yet it was still quite eye-catching.

Immortal Miao Feng observed Su Jingyi, who was both friend and enemy. She couldn't help but suspect that this seemingly cold-hearted woman possessed a figure comparable to her own. Could it be that it's meant to entice my little thief?

"I have something to ask you," Immortal Miao Feng sat down on a chair, her tone casual. "Do you know of any flying treasures that can be used without reaching the Innate Realm?"

"Who is it for? Xuan Shi?" Su Jingyi asked casually.

"Yes," Immortal Miao Feng pursed her lips and replied with a hint of embarrassment.

Su Jingyi raised her gaze and looked at her fixedly. She said, with an unsympathetic tone, "Tell the truth, or I won't help you."

Immortal Miao Feng bit her lip and confessed with a trace of shame, "It's for my lover."
