Chapter 134 In the Clouds 14 A Beautiful New World
"Demon hunter!"
"Wow! This is some good stuff!"
"The Ghost King will surely love it if we build palaces with their bones!"
A pig demon suggested, "That's such a waste! It would be so much fun to turn them into little devils!"
The man on the stage was very smug, stroking the head of a sorcerer and saying, "I think eating them raw is best, it can improve cultivation. Didn't they say some people will be coming in the next few days? We can eat them in front of them, even better, we can eat the prince's flesh and blood along with them! Hahahaha..."
"it is good!"
"it is good!"
"A bunch of overconfident fools, they've come to deliver our grain!"
"That's not it!"
……
"My lord, there is nothing unusual outside the city at the moment."
A bat demon knelt on the ground, trembling slightly.
The Ghost King is capricious and often suffers from headaches. Demons or ghosts who used to be around him may be annihilated at any time.
I hope he can get out safely today.
Before the bat was a small hill made of piled bones, and on the bones was a futon, with a person shrouded in black clothes whose appearance could not be seen at all.
"Wasn't that prince supposed to be coming? Why isn't he here yet? Didn't he want to be my lackey?"
Upon hearing this, the bat swallowed nervously. It is said that when the previous senior reported to His Highness the Crown Prince in the capital that he was going south for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Ghost King immediately asked, "Does he also want to be my underling?"
The senior above him kindly reminded him that the other person seemed to be there to kill him, and he was instantly annihilated.
The little bat thought carefully for a moment before saying, "The little devils who become adults can live for at least a hundred years, so they are naturally eager to come."
Xi Yu listened and tapped his own skull, seemingly in complete agreement.
But the next second, the bat demon, who had just relaxed, turned to ashes.
In the empty, boundless space, words of apology echoed.
"Sorry, I messed up."
He propped his head up with one hand and tapped his knee casually with the other, looking like he was in a good mood.
That's something to look forward to!

As night fell, Guiyue Village was still filled with laughter and joy.
Tonight's dinner was exceptionally lavish, as the villagers spontaneously prepared a feast for the heroes. Everyone sang songs of encouragement, eagerly anticipating the day they would return home.
"Brother Sicheng, drink less! There's going to be a battle tomorrow!"
"And you, Xie Xiao, why didn't you stop him from ordering it!"
Wen Mingzhu was very annoyed watching Zhao Sicheng drink without refusing anyone's drinks. She still wanted to rely on him to protect her when she left the city tomorrow.
Drinking like that, it doesn't seem reliable at all.
Xie Xiao followed Shen Yingsi, talking with the village chief.
"I promised you I would take back Yueban, so you don't need to participate in this battle."
Village Chief Liu: "Your Highness, that is my homeland. Even if I die there, I will be willing to do so. I beg Your Highness to grant my humble wish."
Shen Yingsi was still smiling, but his tone left no room for argument: "Uncle Liu, you can't go. This is my order."
Seeing this, Liu Youming said no more.
Aunt Song sat alone to one side, silent, but holding the jade pendant tightly in her hand.
Wen Li sat at the children's table, chatting and boasting with the group of kids.
However, Si Xiaxia's chattering voice kept ringing in her ears, and sometimes she had to take her time to respond to her.
Si Xiaxia: "At least tens of thousands of people died in the book this time! The chapter title is 'Bloodbath at Mid-Moon.' It'll take ten whole days of killing. You either have to run or hide!"
Wen Li: "Okay, okay."
Then a seven-year-old boy asked her if she could kill Xi Yu in a day.
Wen Li boasted shamelessly: "Tch, one day? I could twist his head off in half a day."
Si Xiaxia quickly flipped through the original text and continued nervously, "It's also very dangerous around the protagonist. In the original text, he was beaten up pretty badly. Remember to stay away from him to avoid accidentally hurting yourself."
Wen Li: "Yes, yes."
Another child asked Wenli, "You're so powerful, will you be able to protect the Crown Prince?" Her mother replied, "Only if the Crown Prince lives can we go home."
Wen Li patted her chest: "Of course, I'll stay by his side every step of the way and make sure he's unharmed!"
Si Xiaxia: "Also, remember that a living person can only stay in your space for half an hour at most. If they stay any longer, their soul will wither and they will never be able to get out. Be careful."
Wen Li: "I know, I know."
Seeing her so confident, Shi Tou was a little skeptical. If there really were such capable people, how could there be so many people in the world living such hidden, stifled, and miserable lives as they do?
Stone: "You just need to protect yourself when the time comes. I don't want to eat at your feast."
Wen Li: "Tch, underestimate me. If I really can't beat you, I'll just hide in my spatial dimension."
Si Xiaxia: "Wen Li! Did you hear me?! This is a matter of life and death!"
"Si Xiaxia, we're eating, don't bother me. I understand what you've said. You can go now. I'll call you again tomorrow."
After finishing her story, Wen Li started bragging to the group of children again. Seeing that she was unusually happy, Si Xiaxia didn't say anything.
Oh well, at least she'll still be here, and the main character will be here too, so we won't let her die here.
Village Chief Liu suddenly stood up: "Let us toast His Highness, to thank him for never forgetting our Moon Half City!"
Then everyone stood up and raised their glasses.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for remembering Yueban!"
Shen Yingsi was still sitting there, his hands crumpling the clothes on his knees.
Seeing that Shen Yingsi did not stand up for a long time, everyone felt uneasy, and the atmosphere suddenly became serious.
Shen Yingsi seemed to see the bloody scene from his previous life, Yueban, again before his eyes.
But a smile returned to his face, and he gripped his wine glass, intending to stand up.
"Why thank him? What about us? We also need to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's not just us. More people will come to support us tomorrow. How can we work ourselves to the bone and get all the credit? If we want to thank someone, we should thank everyone who remembers the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Wen Li's voice broke the awkward silence, and everyone burst into laughter.
Even the usually quiet Aunt Song stood up and said, "Ah Li, you're right! Let us respect everyone and never forget those who are chubby."
"A salute to everyone who remembers the importance of being chubby!"
The sound was deafening, and a burst of hearty laughter erupted around them.
After the banquet, Zhao Sicheng and the others had drunk quite a bit, but fortunately, cultivators digest things well, and they would recover after taking two pills the next day.
Xie Xiao shook his head, still somewhat groggy, and helped the drunken Zhao Sicheng leave first.
Aunt Song carried Wen Mingzhu away, while Wen Li had already been dragged away by the group of children to collect gifts.
Shen Yingsi was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief only after the last drunkard surrounding him was pulled away.
Li Youqian cried and shouted, "Your Highness, please remember to help me get a position in Yueban! I will definitely do my best!"
Liu Yunyun slapped his head hard and scolded, "Don't you dare disturb His Highness's rest! Do you even have a brain?"
After they disappeared from sight, Shen Yingsi cast a spell to clean up the surrounding area before turning and leaving.
"Shen Xianzhi! Wait for me!"
Shen Yingsi turned around and looked at Wen Li, who suddenly jumped down from the tree, with a slight smile on his lips.
They don't seem to be going the same way.
Wen Li now had quite a few toys and snacks in her hands. She put everything into her spatial storage, leaving only a few pieces of hibiscus cake in her hand.
"Here, have some hibiscus cake."
Wen Li handed him the pastries, and seeing that he didn't speak, she said, "Why are you looking at me? I told you I would protect you. It's dangerous for you to walk alone on the road in the middle of the night, but it's okay, I'll take you home."
Shen Yingsi picked up the hibiscus cake and took a bite.
Really delicious.
Wen Li walked with a somewhat leisurely pace, her mouth opening and closing as she talked incessantly. She talked about the gifts the children had given her, the peach blossom wine she had just drunk at the banquet, and the beautiful dream she had last night...
"Master Jiang, why don't you skip tomorrow?"
Seeing her smiling so happily, Shen Yingsi couldn't help but speak up.
"I'm not going? Are you blind? With my strength, if I don't go, are you suggesting Wen Mingzhu and the others go and perform some kind of leg-kicking act?"
"I'm afraid you'll cry later."
"Me, cry? I'll cry? You should be worried about Wen Mingzhu crying..."
Why would I worry about her?
The laughter faded, and then the air suddenly fell silent again.
After a long pause, Wen Li said again, "Anyway, the village chief is almost eighty years old. If he goes, I definitely have to go too!"
“Ali, this time it’s different. The village chief isn’t going. But Ali shouldn’t have known about the village chief in her previous life.”
Wen Li kept her mouth shut, secretly regretting that she had spoken too quickly!
"Ali, can you tell me your secret?"
Seeing that Wen Li seemed reluctant to talk, Shen Yingsi patted her head and said helplessly, "If you don't want to talk, then don't."
"I will help Ali with what she wants. But does Ali really believe that just one god will make the world a better place? Or will it become even more disgusting?"
Is it wonderful or disgusting?
They were all reborn, and Wen Li knew very well what the world was like during those last ten years.
Many places have been corrupted by demonic energy, becoming barren, like the area around Moonlit City. Even survival has become a problem, and people have abandoned all etiquette, morality, and legal systems.
Humanity reverted to its primal bestial nature, and the human world became a place where demons ate humans, humans ate demons, demons were eaten by demons, and humans were eaten by humans.
Shen Yingsi didn't wait for Wen Li's reply and continued, "Alright, I've arrived. Ah Li should go back and rest early."
Wen Li glanced at him and said, "Then I'll be going now. Second Master hasn't had dinner at home yet tonight."
Shen Yingsi watched her retreating figure, and as she walked away, he suddenly turned back and said, "Shen Xianzhi, let's create a beautiful new world together."
Shen Yingsi watched as her eyelashes fluttered slightly, her eyes shone, and the corners of her lips curved with confidence and arrogance. He had never expected her to answer like that.
"Together we will?"
Shen Yingsi hesitated for a moment, but received an affirmative answer.
Yes! Let's do it together!
"I'm leaving!"
Watching the figure disappear into the distance, Shen Yingsi remained standing in the same spot.
To create a beautiful new world.
