Chapter 1008: Chapter 1028: I Heard Fox Ladies Are Charming, Hehe..._1

In the bun shop, Lin Chen held a bowl of porridge and ate steamed buns with a relaxed expression on his face.

Across from Lin Chen sat Nalan Wushuang, who had removed her veil. She was also eating buns, but her movements were much more refined than Lin Chen’s.

Though Nascent Soul Realm cultivators could completely avoid eating, Lin Chen, coming from the human world, enjoyed the taste of delicious food and the atmosphere of the human world.

Lin Chen spent a few days rebuilding the City Lord’s Mansion, employing the previous City Lord’s old subordinates, and restoring the previous order. Once he confirmed the related laws, he let things be.

Order had always existed; it just needed someone to ensure its stable implementation.

He didn’t need to do anything. His presence alone served as a Dinghai Shenzhen, giving the city’s residents peace of mind.

Although he was the City Lord, he lived like an ordinary person.

In the morning, Lin Chen would stroll to a nearby meat bun shop to eat a few big meat buns and drink a bowl of porridge.

During the day, Lin Chen would stay at the City Lord’s Mansion, refining elixirs in peace, furnace after furnace.

These elixirs were usually not very powerful or valuable. After refining them, Lin Chen didn’t have any use for them, so he let others distribute them to the needy citizens, said to have saved many people.

In the evenings, Lin Chen and Nalan Wushuang would have dinner together, take a walk, and then sleep peacefully, dreaming sweetly until dawn.

Lin Chen felt as if his life had never been so leisurely before. From a young age, he had always been busy, constantly struggling to climb higher and chase forward. Now that he had finally stopped to rest, it felt wonderful!

"The merchant I asked to inquire about news earlier has returned. Let’s go ask him later."

Nalan Wushuang paused for a moment, then nodded: "Alright."

After their meal, the two arrived at the Flying Boat Dock, where a huge flying boat was moored.

The two landed on the bow of the flying boat, and the boat owner quickly came to greet them.

"Boss Zhang, have you found out anything about the information I asked you to inquire about previously?"

Merchant Zhang Yulin was a fat man with a big belly, grinning like the Maitreya Buddha.

"I have! Heh, luckily you asked me. If you had asked others, they definitely wouldn’t be able to uncover such secret information..."

Lin Chen smiled and asked, "What information, let’s hear it?"

Zhang Yulin glanced at Nalan Wushuang, who was wearing a veil, and lowered his voice: "The demon race is in chaos right now; I heard that their Demon Saintess was kidnapped by a human cultivator..."

Kidnapped?

Lin Chen asked with a calm expression, "Isn’t the Demon Saintess very powerful? Who is so powerful that they can kidnap her?"

Zhang Yulin mysteriously said, "The official news hasn’t revealed it, but I heard privately that the new Human Emperor of our human race did it, hehe..."

New Human Emperor?

Nalan Wushuang and the Old Demoness were the only ones who knew about the Emperor’s Seal acknowledging him. Nalan Wushuang had been by his side all along, and now that the demon race was spreading this news, did it mean the Old Demoness wasn’t dead?

Lin Chen played along, asking, "He’s so powerful; why would he kidnap the Demon Saintess?"

Zhang Yulin casually replied, "Who knows? The Demon Saintess has a unique identity, perhaps the new Human Emperor plans to kill her so she won’t pose a threat to our human race in the future."

"However, I heard that the Demon Saintess is very beautiful, blooming like a flower, and her temperament is like that of a fairy. It’s just that I don’t know if our new Human Emperor can do it. After all, even heroes find it hard to resist beautiful women. I heard that the Demon Saintess is a Fox Girl, and Fox Girls are always charming and soul-snatching; once they’re in bed, hehe..."

Nalan Wushuang gritted her teeth and turned her head to the side, otherwise, she would not be able to resist giving the other party a couple of punches.

Lin Chen couldn’t help but grin, thinking, Boss Zhang, you’ve got a lot of nerve – talking about the Demon Saintess like this right in front of her, and she hasn’t even hit you yet...

Zhang Yulin was blissfully unaware that he had almost stepped into the Ghost Gate. Fortunately, he changed the subject after a quick quip, "Besides the matter of the Demon Saintess, I’ve also heard of another big event..."

Lin Chen’s heart skipped a beat: "What event?"

Zhang Yulin answered, "I heard that a great figure from the demon race has resurrected, and even the Demon Emperor has to salute her when he sees her..."

The Old Demoness was indeed not dead!

Nalan Wushuang turned her head, staring intently at Zhang Yulin with equally shocked eyes.

Wasn’t her Primordial Spirit almost shattered? How could she still be alive?

Lin Chen asked, "Who is it, so powerful? The Demon Emperor has existed for ten thousand years, so who could he have to salute?"

Zhang Yulin whispered, "It’s said to be an ancient powerhouse of the demon race, a man, a middle-aged man, but I don’t know his name."

A man?

A middle-aged man?

Lin Chen was slightly taken aback, but then he realized that the Old Demoness must have possessed someone.

Initially, the Old Demoness was severely injured by the Xuanji Fairy’s punch, and even her Black Stone Coffin fell into Lin Chen’s hands. Her Primordial Spirit was on the verge of dispersing and had fled with great effort.

Given the state of her Primordial Spirit, she couldn’t possibly exist independently. She originally intended to possess Nalan Wushuang, but Lin Chen took her away, so perhaps she found another target for possession?

But she was a woman, and she had possessed a man?
