Chapter 309 The Ghost Infant Arrives
Both Lin Shujing and An Yarou are the kind of people who are more cunning than a sieve.

Therefore, their communication is simple and effective.

When they went to reply, they worked together seamlessly, one after the other, and successfully concealed the part about the Demon Lord and Shen Youqing.

However, some people noticed something amiss, such as Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin.

After the reply was finished, the group of Venerables did not insist on keeping Lin Shujing and An Yarou.

No sooner had the two of them returned to their residence than Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin appeared.

Yue Xunzhu's gentle and elegant voice slowly rang out, carrying an undeniable air of authority, "Fellow Daoist An, may I have a word with you in private?"

Anya Rou gracefully raised her hand in invitation.

inside the house.

Yue Xunzhu raised her hand and created a barrier.

This wasn't the first time Anya Rou had dealt with this Young Master Yue, and based on her understanding of his character, she wasn't too flustered.

Shen Quelin took out a scroll of images from his storage ring and unfolded it. "Demon Lord, is this how it is?"

An Ya Rou glanced at it and said, "Yes."

“Fellow Daoist An, what is your opinion on the statement, ‘If Shen Youqing doesn’t come back, neither of you need to come back’?” Yue Xunzhu asked slowly.

Looking at the all-knowing gaze of Yue Xunzhu, An Yarou always felt that this intelligent, almost demonic man knew something.

This shouldn't be the case; no one else suspected anything when she covered it up!
"An Yarou, we know more than you do." Shen Quelin's voice turned cold, carrying the imposing authority of a superior.

From the previous description, he and his cousin knew that it would definitely not be easy for Shen Youqing, that Muggle, to come back!
I've come here now simply to verify whether my guess was correct.

An Yarou stared at the face that looked exactly like Shen Youqing's, and after a moment of silence said, "I don't know what you two are talking about."

She couldn't gamble with Shen Youqing's safety!

Seeing this, Yue Xunzhu did not press the matter. He raised his hand to bow to An Yarou and said, "Although I don't know why you helped Jinjin conceal Jun Su's unusual feelings for her, as her brother, I should thank you."

An Ya Rou's eyes flickered slightly.

“You’re a smart man,” Shen Quelin said. “You know the Yue family’s methods. Since you’ve helped Shen Youqing cover up these things, we’ll help you too. You have a chance…”

……

The Demon Realm, the Demon Palace.

Shen Youqing followed the two demon generals into the main hall and saw Jun Su leaning back in his chair, dozing off.

Lu Jin and Qin Wu knelt on one knee, and then Qin Wu respectfully said, "Demon Lord, the person has been brought back."

"Ah."

Having received a response, the two demon generals dared not linger and left after a respectful bow.

Shen Youqing, who was standing there all alone, looked up.

Seeing the man pretending to be asleep with his eyes closed, she didn't say anything, but simply sat down on the ground and closed her eyes to rest.

No one spoke; the hall was unusually quiet.

After a while, Jun Su looked down and saw Shen Youqing sitting there upright, resting.

He was clearly as disheveled as a beggar, yet his pride seemed unbreakable.

"stand up."

Shen Youqing opened her eyes, her voice cold, "Untie me."

Their equally indifferent gazes met in a silent battle in the air.

Finally, Jun Su flicked his finger, and the handcuffs and leg irons vanished without a trace.

Shen Youqing rubbed his wrists before standing up.

"Qin Mei".

A gloomy, indifferent voice rang out, echoing eerily in the vast hall like a vengeful ghost demanding a life.

The moment the voice faded, a woman appeared in the hall. "Take her away...to heal her wounds." Jun Su paused, then continued, "From now on, you'll stay by her side."

To prevent Shen Youqing from doing something outrageous again, I cannot unseal her spiritual power.

But the demon realm is fraught with danger, and she needs a sword by her side.

Shen Youqing narrowed her eyes, showing little reaction to Jun Su sending someone to monitor her.

After bowing, Qin Mei raised her hand to invite Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing turned and left without even glancing at him.

Jun Su made no attempt to hide his attitude; anyone who knew him even slightly could tell, let alone the assassins who had always been by his side.

Based on Shen Youqing's special relationship with Jun Su, Qin Mei took her to a magnificent courtyard.

"I go by my own."

After saying that, Shen Youqing went to the bathroom by himself.

Half an hour later.

Shen Youqing, dressed in a dark, fitted outfit, walked out from inside. The dirty girl, after washing herself, looked as fresh as a lotus emerging from clear water.

Without Qin Mei needing to speak, Shen Youqing walked towards the main house.

The next day.

Shen Youqing, who had finally had a good night's sleep, felt a weight on her body before she even got up.

When she opened her eyes, she saw the ghost baby lying on her body, its big, dark eyes looking at her expectantly.

Seeing that Shen Youqing was awake, she hugged Shen Youqing with both small arms, a happy smile on her face, "Mother~"

"Why are you here?" Shen Youqing patted the little guy lying on the quilt.

When she was teleported to the Demon Realm, she did not have a ghost infant with her. She left the child and the snow crystal purple-eyed cat in the house to keep them company while they rested.

Now look what happened! The child has been found when I woke up!

"I miss my mother~" The ghost baby crawled, its cool little face rubbing against Shen Youqing's cheek. "I'll be a good girl, Mother, please don't abandon me~"

All she knew was that when she woke up, her mother was gone, and then her uncle took her to a very unfamiliar place.

She only wants her mother; she wants to find her mother.

And just like that, the ghost baby suddenly appeared, and no one knew how she got there.

"You little rascal!" Shen Youqing sat up in bed, holding the ghost baby in one arm and patting the little guy's head with the other. Her tone was clearly scolding, but it sounded inexplicably affectionate. "This is the Demon Realm, but oh well, we're already here, so let's just..."

The sudden appearance of the man interrupted Shen Youqing's words, and his gentle expression turned cold and stern, like a hedgehog adopting a defensive posture.

Jun Su stared at the ghost infant that had suddenly appeared in Shen Youqing's hand, his already gloomy eyes growing even more obscure. "Your child?"

Holding the ghost infant, Shen Youqing said coldly, "If it's not mine, then it's yours?"

Indeed, resting fully clothed was a very wise choice!

Looking at the two faces that bore no resemblance whatsoever, Jun Su didn't know whether to be thankful that this wasn't Shen Youqing's child or to be thankful that he hadn't killed the ghost infant in the middle of the night last night.

The ghost baby turned its head to look, then its two little hands tightly hugged Shen Youqing's neck, and its eerie voice was inexplicably pitiful and aggrieved, "Mother, he wants to kill Nannan."

Shen Youqing gently patted the ghost baby's back to coax it, then Tong Junsu said coldly, "Go out, you're scaring the little girl."

For some unknown reason, Jun Su's figure disappeared from the room.

Shen Youqing coaxed the ghost baby until it got up.

When she came out of the house, she saw Jun Su standing there, while Qin Mei was barely noticeable.

"Is something the matter?" Shen Youqing asked.

Seeing that Shen Youqing showed no remorse for being a prisoner, Jun Su said indifferently, "Qin Mei, take her to the dungeon."

Qin Mei didn't understand Jun Su's meaning at first, but when she looked up and saw the Demon Lord's gloomy gaze, she realized what he meant.

Instead of throwing her into the dungeon, we let her see the plight of those prisoners.
