The Lady Serpent frequently threw coquettish glances, pulling Chen Sha closer, ready to make her move.
"Immortal, I have no problems with that."
In a soft and gentle voice, she said, "Even one more is fine."
Chen Sha’s face turned green.
Fairy Yunyao pushed her away and said, "What are you doing? We are decent people."
The Lady Serpent beca angry and said, "You’re just a maidservant! Why are you stopping the Immortal from resting?"
Yunyao was livid.
Since when had she beco a maidservant?
Chen Sha seed to understand sothing.
It seed the Lady Serpent had misunderstood; he decided to play along.
He pulled Yunyao aside, comforted her, and told her to go freshen up and rest. He would deal with the Lady Serpent.
Yunyao repeatedly threatened, "Do not ss around with her. I am watching you."
Chen Sha also repeatedly assured her that won are fickle, and he would not be fooled.
But after Yunyao left, she gave him a slap across the face, sothing he had not anticipated.
Alas. It was completely baffling.
Once the Lady Serpent saw Yunyao finally leave, she beca even more brazen, her hands beginning to wander all over him.
Chen Sha quickly slapped her hands away. "Stop touching! I’m a decent person," he said.
The Lady Serpent said, "Is the Immortal too reserved? Don’t worry, I am very gentle."
Chen Sha coughed. "I really don’t need it."
The Lady Serpent said, "I can do the ’python coils around the tree.’"
Chen Sha’s face turned dark.
The Lady Serpent said, "I don’t mind one more person. Two is also fine. Or should I call all my sisters over?"
Chen Sha’s face turned even greener.
He repeatedly stated that he did not need it; he was a decent person.
The Lady Serpent, half-believing and half-doubting, tentatively asked, "Has the Immortal overdone his Cultivation and can’t... manage it?"
Chen Sha said, "A man cannot say he can’t. I can."
The Lady Serpent laughed. "That’s good."
Then she asked, "So, is the Immortal a follower of Buddhism?"
Chen Sha said, "I am from Jinao Island."
The Lady Serpent quickly slapped herself twice. The Sect of Interpretation and Buddhism were mortal enemies, and she had forgotten that.
Luckily, the Immortal did not take it to heart. She would need to work harder later.
Seeing the Lady Serpent was not going to let up, Chen Sha hurriedly said, "It’s not convenient for right now."
The Lady Serpent was stunned and asked in astonishnt, "Do n also have an inconvenient ti once a month?"
Chen Sha’s cheeks twitched. "Enough," he said. "I just don’t like you. Quit the nonsense."
The Lady Serpent suddenly felt a trendous sense of loss.
Indeed. He spurns as damaged goods; he doesn’t like .
Deflated, the Lady Serpent said, "Rest well, Immortal. I have a younger sister who will co to see you later. Don’t worry, she is a good catch."
Chen Sha was speechless.
Why was this Lady Serpent so persistent?
He refused her repeatedly.
The Lady Serpent was also bewildered.
Are there really n these days who dislike playing with snakes?
After she left, she brought back food and drinks. She tested the waters repeatedly and, confirming that the Immortal truly disliked playing with snakes, prepared to leave with a touch of disappointnt.
Chen Sha suddenly called out to her, "Lady Serpent, I have a favor to ask."
The Lady Serpent’s body shivered. She turned back, her smile captivating enough to bewitch all living beings, and her sash began to unravel, seemingly without regret.
I knew it! What a hypocrite!
Chen Sha’s face turned green again as he hurriedly restrained her wandering hand. "I want to ask," he said, "the pig demon called Tianpeng that you’ve captured, where is he being held?"
The Lady Serpent asked in surprise, "Why is the Immortal asking about him? He’s a man."
Chen Sha’s cheeks twitched as he replied, "I am looking for a man."
The Lady Serpent imdiately stepped back two paces, inhaling sharply.
Is his preference for gender really that rigid!?
Subsequently, she listlessly pointed towards the east, informing Chen Sha of Marshal Tianpeng’s location.
She didn’t consider it a secret because the place where Tianpeng was detained was the main prison on Luanshi Island. Inside, besides Tianpeng, other captives were also being held. Moreover, it was heavily guarded, and no one could enter.
The Immortal must have been asking casually and probably wouldn’t think of rescuing a pig demon he had never t.
After Lady Serpent left, Chen Sha feasted heartily on the food and wine. Then, he prepared to investigate, hoping to rescue Marshal Tianpeng in one fell swoop.
He roped in the half-asleep Fairy Yunyao, and the two headed towards the prison.
Looking at the prison gate, Yunyao was baffled. "Why have you brought here?" she asked.
Chen Sha said, "To find a pig."
Yunyao replied, "Didn’t Luanshi Island serve you roast suckling pig? You’re quite impatient."
Chen Sha said, "No, it’s not that. Don’t ask any more questions."
Afterwards, he bluffed his way past the prison gate. Accompanied by a demon, he proceeded to the deepest part of the prison.
As expected, he saw Marshal Tianpeng chained in a narrow, dark cell, cursing feebly.
"Release ! Release ! I am Marshal Tianpeng of the Heavenly Court! How dare you imprison and torture ? Aren’t you afraid of the Heavenly Court’s soldiers and generals descending upon you?"
"You plague-ridden demons! Sooner or later, this old pig will burn you all to ashes!"
"Let go! I know I was wrong! I didn’t know Princess Wan Sheng was your king’s fiancée!"
Tianpeng kept cursing, then begging for rcy monts later.
But the demons seed accustod to it, completely ignoring him.
Hearing that the Immortal had arrived, they all rushed forward to flatter him.
Chen Sha noticed Tianpeng and then saw another creature in an adjacent cell of the Heavenly Prison: a pitch-black, furry monster. Its treatnt was no better than Tianpeng’s.
Seeing a mark on the black, furry monster’s rear, Chen Sha’s cheeks involuntarily twitched.
No wonder I haven’t seen the black bear demon for so long. So he was captured along with Tianpeng. Judging by the black bear demon’s wretched state, he must have been tortured considerably.
Tianpeng also seed to notice the newcor. Seeing Chen Sha’s clean, refined, and celestial deanor, he imdiately mistook him for an Immortal.
"Which Immortal are you? Save ! Save ! I am Marshal Tianpeng!"
Chen Sha rely glanced at him, then beckoned to the guard demon—a huge rat demon with a formidable aura. It actually possessed the cultivation of a Greater Primordial Golden Immortal.
However, the rat demon seed to have been warned. It was extrely fawning towards Chen Sha, nodding and bowing with an obsequious smile.
Fairy Yunyao is a peak Greater Primordial Golden Immortal, yet she’s rely this Immortal’s maidservant. How powerful must this Immortal be!
The Great Rat Demon naturally fawned and smiled.
"Immortal, this pig demon tried to seduce the King’s Consort and was captured by us. He awaits execution after autumn," the Great Rat Demon explained, seeing Chen Sha’s interest.
Chen Sha nodded and asked, "And that bear over there? What’s its story?"
The Great Rat Demon imdiately gave a thumbs-up. "Truly an Immortal! We’ve beaten him to a pulp, yet you can still tell he’s a bear!"
A stream of flattery ca his way.
The Great Rat Demon continued with a subservient smile, "That black bear demon is also a thief. But he steals money, not people. He was captured two years ago, and we’ve been torturing him ever since, trying to pry his mouth open."
His eyes glead as he said, "We all know he must have soone masterminding him, but he’s tight-lipped and won’t talk!"
That was close, Chen Sha thought. Captured two years ago and tortured all this ti to make him expose . Luckily, the black bear demon is stubborn and didn’t talk. Otherwise, Flowing Sand River would probably be swarming with demons by now.
Chen Sha said, "How about this: hand over this pig and the bear to . I’ll interrogate them for you."
The Great Rat Demon looked troubled.
Chen Sha said, "Are you doubting my intentions? I’m trying to help you, you damn fool! I’m getting angry!"
He pretended to be furious, smashing a few things around.
The demons trembled, not knowing what to do.
The Great Rat Demon quickly said, "Since the Immortal is so kind as to offer, we’ll entrust them to you. But... could the interrogation perhaps be done right here?"
Chen Sha said, "Fine. But my interrogation thods are rather unique. No peeking."
The demons sighed in relief. They hurriedly cleared the area, then went outside to guard the door.
Only Chen Sha, the black bear demon, and Tianpeng remained.
Even Fairy Yunyao stood guard outside the door, ostensibly to prevent the demons from peeking.
