The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path-Chapter 121 - Demon Lord

Chapter 121 - Demon Lord

Edited by Chole and NZRose

The footsteps were getting closer.

Lin Shu looked back.

The person wore a black robe. The black robe had a very strange red pattern. There was a crimson totem pattern between his eyebrows. The long eyebrows were slightly raised, which looked quite evil.

Lin Shu originally didn’t know who this was, but seeing the breadth of “I am No. 1 in the world” exuding this person, he felt that this should be his cheap master.

The man looked at him and raised his eyebrows, “Apprentice?”

Lin Shu: “Yes.”

Qing Ming Demon Lord looked at him a few times and said, “Still okay.”

Lin Shu was flattered.

The Demon Lord continued, “I will explain to you one thing.”

Lin Shu: “… Okay.”

The Demon Lord’s tone was very lazy, and at the same time, it was very unmarginal. After Lin Shu agreed to this matter, he didn’t go straight to the point and say what it was. Instead, he mentioned other things, “I fought with the dog thief, and collapsed half of the sky in the Immortal Realm.”

Lin Shu: “Master is very powerful.”

It seems that the Demon Lord’s life is very fulfilling, given that he could still pick a fight in the Immortal Realm…

No.

They had all ascended to the Immortal Realm. How can they continue to pick fights without national enmity, family hatred? Not to mention that they would have already forgotten their old grudges upon meeting again.

What kind of hatred and what kind of grudge?

The Demon Lord said, “Young Master Chen left this job to me and asked me to make amends. Apprentice, I don’t want to make amends and change my fate. I can only let you run errands in the mortal world.”

Lin Shu: “…Alright”

“Do you know about The Peerless Cultivation Techniques?” The Demon Lord asked.

Lin Shu: “I know.”

Such as the “Everlasting Yearning” and “Parts of Ten Thousand Creation” is a way to cultivate till Mahayana and to obtain extraordinary cultivation.

It was said that there were only four or five books in the whole Southern Xia Dynasty.

“If you find two or three of the original ones, burn them for this teacher.” The Demon Lord said lazily.

Lin Shu: “?”

He asked, “How to burn it?”

The Demon Lord said, “Fire, ah”.

Lin Shu: “Just… burn it directly? ”

“You can’t do it?” he said.

Lin Shu: “Burn the original versions?”

“Well,” the Demon Lord said in an ambiguous tone, “just burn it.”

Alright, ba.

Lin Shu said, “But I have to find it first.”

The Demon Lord was very dissatisfied, “A disciple of this Qing Ming Demon Lord, couldn’t get just a few original versions?”

Lin Shu explained, “They are all in the famous and big sects…”

“Steal it.” The Demon Lord’s tone was very natural, “After stealing it, tell the world that this was done by Qing Ming Demon Lord’s own disciple. If one disagrees, one can ask the Demon Lord for an explanation. You and I are evil demons and heretics. Why should we tie our hands and feet when we do things?”

I am not.

I didn’t.

I’m neither a demon nor heretical.

However, once you become a Demon Lord’s disciple, it seemed that you have really stepped into the abyss of heresy.

Lin Shu: “My cultivation is not good enough, I can’t get it.”

“How can it be?” the Demon Lord looked at him and said, “Your meridians are broken very well. They are beautiful. They are even more broken than mine used to be. I think you must have done a good job in practicing the cultivation technique of ‘Extinction Void Art’.”

Lin Shu choked, “You haven’t even finished it.”

——Where was he going to learn this technique? In a dream?

The Demon Lord frowned, “I really didn’t seem to have finished it.”

Lin Shu: “That’s right.”

But the Demon Lord’s next sentence was, “Can’t you understand it by yourself?”

Lin Shu: “?”

He then said, “This apprentice… is too stupid to understand.”

“You’re indeed slow,” said the Demon Lord. “There’s my draft in the study. Take it. My words are ugly. It’s hard to recognize.”

Lin Shu said, “Why do you want to burn the cultivation techniques?”

“I said it was an errand.” The Demon Lord said lazily, “Don’t worry, take your time. Just do it before you ascend.”

The way he said it left little room for change.

The Demon Lord didn’t say, “Apprentice, would you like to run errands for me?” but “Apprentice, run errands for your teacher.”

He also didn’t say, “Apprentice, do what you can, forget it if you can’t.” instead, “Just do it before you ascend.”

Lin Shu thought about the possibility of this matter.

He can not steal the techniques of Southern Xia. He can not steal it out of morality.

However, if there is a war in the future, the Peerless Cultivation Techniques of Northern Xia might have a chance.

Qingming Demon Lord waved his hand, “Okay, you can leave. I’ll give you this master’s cave to play with.”

Lin Shu: “How to go?”

Asking such a question, he felt like a living idiot. But there was a mirror in front and a black hole behind. He really didn’t know how to go.

“Just go around.” The Demon Lord said.

Then he looked in the mirror.

“Apprentice.” The Demon Lord looked at the man in the mirror and said, “There seems to be some problem with your cultivation technique.”

Lin Shu: “?”

He looked in the mirror, too.

The man in the mirror still stood on the top of the snow-capped mountain coldly and quietly.

In fact, in his last life, he used to be in a daze like this in the mountains.

As for his cultivation technique… Is there a problem with ‘Everlasting Yearning’?

“I think it’s great,” he said.

“It’s still okay.” Demon Lord said, “Just that I see you even have children, which is a little troublesome.”

At this point, he seemed to be interested, but also deviated from the main point, “The little girl is very beautiful, which one of you gave birth to her? How was she birthed?”

Lin Shu: “I picked it up.”

Demon Lord: “Oh.”

Lin Shu: “It’s a son.”

Demon King: “…”

“All right.” The Demon Lord said, “Someone called me, I’m leaving.”

Lin Shu: “Take your time.”

The figure of the Demon Lord dissipated in an instant. When he was about to disappear, Lin Shu seemed to have a hallucination. He heard the Demon Lord say in an impatient tone: “Leave, leave, leave.”

Lin Shu thought, maybe the Demon Lord was talking to the person who called him.

Last time he played chess with the Young Master of Exquisite Fairyland in Huandang mountain, who was also from the Immortal Realm.

People in the Immortal Realm have never descended into the Mortal Realm. It seems that they couldn’t come down. Even if they want to communicate with the mortals, they do it through a phantom body and have no magic power. And they could only stay in specific locations.

The Young Master said that his phantom body can only appear in Huandang Mountain.

Lin Shu suddenly thought of a possibility.

If at that time, he didn’t go to the top of that building to cross the tribulation, or there was no lightning rod installed on that building.

Then he could have ascended to the Immortal Realm.

Then, he could have met Young Master, Qing Ming Demon Lord, and Yuehua Immortal Lord in the Immortal Realm.

Even… Xiao Shao.

What would have Xiao Shao looked like? Would it be the same as now? Would there be other hamsters?

He and Xiao Shao would have become mere acquaintances in the Immortal Realm, or might not even know each other at all.

And when he came here, he met them in another way. He played chess with the Young Master, became the apprentice of the Demon Lord, and lost a wife with Xiao Shao.

This kind of interweaving of time and space and the feeling of impermanence made him feel perplexed.

Oh, not only did he lose his wife with Xiao Shao, but also trying dual cultivation. They also had a little fruit which he didn’t know whether it was a daughter or a son.

He stopped his thoughts running in a strange direction and returned to the mirror in front of him.

The self in the mirror was still the same.

What was the principle of this mirror? Why was there such a scene?

The Demon Lord said there was a problem with ‘Everlasting Yearning’, but it isn’t that big a problem. And it seemed to be related to children.

It’s puzzling.

However, it was taboo to doubt one’s cultivation practice.

Lin Shu decided to observe again in the future.

The Demon Lord said he could go around, so he touched the mirror with his finger and walked to one side.

After about a hundred steps, the smooth mirror disappeared and became some rough and uneven edges that seemed to be engraved with patterns.

Lin Shu went around.

Behind the mirror, the scene totally changed and the place was brightly lit.

——It’s a place similar to the main hall. In the middle of it hung a picture of a huge word “Extinction”.

In the hall, Xiao Shao was holding fruit and looking at the mirror hanging on the wall.

Lin Shu suddenly turned his head back.

There was no mirror, and behind was only a row of screens.

Xiao Shao said, “Here you are.”

Fruit: “You’ve finally come!”

Xiao Shao: “We are separated from you. I thought that it was Qing Ming Demon Lord who led you to some other place.”

Lin Shu nodded and approached them.

In the mirror, it’s the same scene.

“What did you see?” he asked

Fruit said: “I was with a bunch of beauties! Everyone is as beautiful as y’all were in a skirt!”

Fruit saw beauties, this was reasonable.

Lin Shu looked at Xiao Shao.

Xiao Shao did not answer, but asked him: “How about you?”

Lin Shu told the truth.

Xiao Shao said, “I didn’t see anyone.”

Lin Shu: “Eh?”

Xiao Shao: “I saw a lot of blood.”

Then he reached out and took the mirror off the wall and turned it over.

On the back are some rough lines with a line of characters in the middle.

‘Separation and getting together, are all pre-determined fate.’

The mirror has an unusual smell, and it seemed that everyone would see something different.

Xiao Shao said, “I have never seen this kind of magic.”

Lin Shu said: “At that time, many spells were different from now.”

For example, the arrays and skills of Qing Ming Demon Lord were all things that are difficult to achieve with the current immortal and demonic techniques. So, it was normal for them to encounter some magic weapons that they couldn’t understand.

Xiao Shao asked, “Has the Demon Lord passed down his skills to you?”

Lin Shu: “The Demon Lord wanted me to go to his study myself.”

Xiao Shao asked, “Is he okay?”

Lin Shu didn’t know why Xiao Shao asked. He told the truth, “He seemed to be very busy.”

After a few words, he was called away.

He added, “The Demon Lord is already in the Immortal Realm, and the Immortal Lord Yuehua is also there. It seemed that they fought not long ago.”

Xiao Shao said, “It might be Immortal Lord Yuehua’s fault.”
