After The Breakup, I Became The Marshal’s Wife

 

 

Chapter 140

In the following period of time, Shi Nian hung out with Bai Xiaoya, leaving Lu Bo Ting to play chess with Bai Xiaoya’s ice-cold Dao partner.

He managed to get a sentence, “You’re not bad.”

The character of a chess player is an indicator of the character of a person, so Gu Chen was probably examining him.

Even though she looked cold, she was still protective of her people.

In the past few days, Lu Bo Ting had been able to get a clear picture of the cultivation world, especially of the Sword Sect. He had also met the sect leader and several elders in the sect.

He also went to an auction with Shi Nian.

The auctions here were somewhat similar to the intergalactic ones, but it was impossible to say that they were exactly the same.

The biggest difference is that there were many people wearing black robes to hide their identities, and several people left the auction immediately after winning something.

They were all worried about being robbed.

But Shi Nian was not worried at all. He was bidding openly, as if he was afraid they did not know he was back.

“Who’s that? So arrogant. ”

“Who else could it be? Haven’t you heard that the little phoenix of the Sword Sect transformed? ”

“Yes, but I don’t know what he looks like!”

“We’ll all know soon enough.” Another man said, “It is said that one of his portraits can be sold for a thousand spirit stones, and there is still a stream of buyers.”

“There are also a lot of people with bad intentions, aren’t there?”

The crowd was silent for a moment at these words.

After all, he was a phoenix. If one could really catch him…. but it wasn’t worth the risk of offending the Sword Sect.

However, some sects had some brave disciples before.

But now, there are fewer who would dare. After all, so many people went down without success, not to mention the fact that Bai Xiaoya and Gu Chen were willing to even turn the whole cultivation world over in retaliation.

The Sword Sect’s people are not to be messed with, and the little phoenix is even worse.

Lu Bo Ting followed Shi Nian, looking at the curiosity in the people around him. He couldn’t help but say, “I heard them all talking and trying to guess who I am.”

“Don’t they all know you’re my Daoist partner?” Shi Nian looked around, “Who is so blind that they can’t see me holding your hand?”

Lu Bo Ting: “…”

He’s still like this even after being educated by Bai Xiaoya for so many days.

But he likes Shi Nian, and he naturally likes all of him.

Even when he is silly and clueless.

He went on to hint, “But there’s no proof, there’s only…”

“How can there be no proof?” Shi Nian said, “Didn’t we receive a certificate? I listened to you and we had an engagement and even a wedding party. ”

Lu Bo Ting: “…”

We are not in the same world.

He heard that there was a big ceremony to tie the knot and some kind of real Heavenly Dao to recognize the contract, so he wanted to do it again.

However, Shi Nian didn’t understand at all, and acted as if he was being unreasonable.

“Come on, let’s go back.”

With that, the duo headed back to the Sword Sect.

Several junior disciples greeted them, and Lu Bo Ting even met a few of his own disciples.

Jiang Xinshi, who was said to be in retreat earlier, came up and said, “What? You’re the little phoenix’s new found daoist partner…. you can’t think I am stupid and coax me with lies! ”

“No, no, no, no way.” Jiang Xinshi shook his head in a serious manner, “Little Phoenix has always liked bright colours. This look is not his kind of….”

Lu Bo Ting’s face was already too dark to look at.

Shi Nian didn’t want to turn over old debts and hurriedly interrupted, “Jiang Xinshi, you forget that I burned you as you ran all over the mountain? To the point of your trousers being burned off? ”

Jiang Xinshi: “……”

“Why did the Little Phoenix even tell you this? Who the hell are you?!”

The young disciples around them were about to burst out laughing. It was so rare to see the true disciples’ jokes.

They explained it to him one by one, and the bewildered Senior Brother Jiang was finally enlightened.

“What? It’s really the little phoenix? You guys didn’t lie to me? ”

There was a female cultivator passing by with her sword over there, and Shi Nian explained to Lu Bo Ting, “That is the Sovereign’s first apprentice. She is said to have been with the old sovereign from back then. Her parents lived in the town under the mountain next to him. She should have just returned from an outing. I’ll introduce you guys later.”

“Ugh?” Jiang Xinshi also saw her and immediately shouted, “Senior sister Qiu, senior sister Qiu…. come quickly, come quickly. The little phoenix turned into a person. Didn’t you used to like him the most?”

Lu Bo Ting: “Like you the most?”

“……” Shi Nian coughed dryly, “Everyone likes me. What’s wrong?”

I can see that.

The entire Sword Sect plays by your rules.

Even though he hadn’t been here long, Lu Bo Ting had heard much about Shi Nian’s “great achievements.”

After hearing them, he only concluded that this little phoenix was still alive and well without having been killed or receiving any great punishment, purely because he was too favored.

But then again, his little phoenix deserves to be unscrupulous and highly favored.

Upon hearing about the little phoenix, senior sister Qiu immediately rushed over, “Where is he? Where is he?”

When she saw Shi Nian, she was about to pinch his face, “Not bad, not bad, really good looking even as an adult… eh?”

Lu Bo Ting raised his hand and blocked her hand. Sister Qiu immediately looked over, “Who are you?”

“Senior sister Qiu.” A junior disciple said, “This is Little Phoenix’s daoist partner. His name is Lu Bo Ting.”

“Where did he come from? How come I don’t know him?”

“He’s just been brought back. You were outside, so how could you know? ”

Jiang Xinshi said, “I just found out about it too.”

It was unnatural to pinch someone’s face in front of their daoist companion.

Senior Sister Qiu coughed dryly and immediately put on a cool and collected look, “Good, it’s very good that the little phoenix found a daoist companion.”

The crowd: “…”

Lu Bo Ting was also a little helpless. Shi Nian huffed and pulled him along, and just ran away.

Behind him came Jiang Xinshi’s shout, “Little Phoenix, I collected some delicious spirit fruits earlier. You have time to come find me. Ah, let’s eat together.”

“Are you the only one who has them? I have them too.” Senior Sister Qiu was unwilling to show weakness.

Shi Nian waved his hand to indicate that he heard, and turned his head to pull Lu Bo Ting back to the cave, asking him if he was jealous.

Lu Bo Ting didn’t expect him to bring it first, so he decided to settle the score first.

He felt refreshed after settling the score.

He suddenly wanted to eat rice cakes, so he went down the hill to buy some.

He met Jiang Xinshi on the way, and the latter saw him and came up to say hello. He also asked, “By the way, when are you going to return to the demon world? I also want to accompany you! ”

Lu Bo Ting was stunned for a moment, “Huh?”

“You don’t know?” Jiang Xinshi said strangely, “But I heard my master say that Little Phoenix was prepared to take you back to the demon world with him!”

“Actually, he tried once before, but at that time, he was not human….anyway, he didn’t manage to go into the boundary. I don’t know if it will work out this time, but if it does, this Daoist couple status of yours will be considered as real.”

Lu Bo Ting instantly felt that there was something he didn’t know about.

He didn’t need to inquire because Jiang Xinshi was a talkative and thoughtless person. He told him everything himself.

It turns out that marriage contracts in the Cultivation World are for human cultivators only, while the demon race also has its own way of doing things.

The specifics for demon cultivator contracts are certainly not too clear, but they seem to require one to enter a cave of some kind. The demon and human groups have not been in contact with each other for many years, so there are no records.

Lu Bo Ting’s heart fluttered.

It was not that Shi Nian did not understand his hint; he had already had the idea for awhile.

The cold and hard aura around his body softened a lot.

After descending the mountain, he carefully picked out some rice cakes for Shi Nian and saw that there were roasted demon beast meat vendors next to him, so he bought a lot more.

“Fifty skewers?” The shopkeeper said in shock, “Daoist, are you sure?”

Lu Bo Ting nodded.

The shopkeeper: “Why don’t you take a look at our shop’s portions? We don’t give small portions. ”

“I know.” Lu Bo Ting took out his spirit stones to pay the bill. “You grill them!”

What else could the shopkeeper say? He could only get all the ingredients he had taken out today and prepare to grill them together.

He wasn’t boasting earlier; his skewers were indeed very large.

To put it mildly, one skewer was as long as a man’s arm.

Other cultivators would buy one skewer at most, and the women could not even finish eating one.

The sight of Lu Bo Ting’s fifty skewers was truly breathtaking.

But luckily, he had been moving with Shi Nian a lot, so some of the spectators soon recognised him.

As soon as they heard that they were for Little Phoenix, no one was surprised.

Fifty skewers were more or less, not much at all.

When they got back, Shi Nian ate them beautifully.

“I haven’t been here for a few years, but I’ve already got a new love for this skewer!”

The big meat skewers really tasted different from the small ones.

Shi Nian felt that the spices used on the skewers tasted so good as soon as he ate them!

A skewer is so expensive, but it’s worth the price.

Lu Bo Ting saw that he liked them, so he went back to the shop and ordered many more.

They wouldn’t go bad when put in the storage pouch anyway, so they could be taken out and eaten at anytime.

There were other delicacies, and he ordered some of them too.

After all, when they go to the Demon World, there might not be so many shops selling these snacks and cooked food there.

He didn’t tell Shi Nian that he already knew about it; he just silently prepared himself. Until one day, Shi Nian got up early in the morning and dragged him down the mountain.

Bai Xiaoya also followed along with Gu Chen. Jiang Xinshi’s wish did not come true because he was sent to deal with an incident at a small sect under the Sword Sect two days ago, so he was not at the Sword Sect at the moment.

When the four of them got into the flying magic treasure, Shi Nian looked at Lu Bo Ting: “Won’t you ask where you are going?”

Lu Bo Ting was amenable, “Where to?”

“I’m taking you to the Demon World to meet my parents.” Shi Nian tilted his head in triumph, his eyes shining brightly.

“I’m going to tell them that their baby is back, and he’s brought back another little baby.”

Lu Bo Ting, who was now a little baby: “…”

Last time he couldn’t break the boundary to go back, but he was now stronger and also took on human form. Not to mention that he came back from another world through his own power.

It was no longer a problem to get in and out of the demon world.

The boundary really didn’t stop him this time, and he went in with Lu Bo Ting. He turned back and waved his hand at Bai Xiaoya and Gu Chen, “See you later.”

They weren’t demons, so they naturally couldn’t enter the demon world. So Bai Xiaoya and his partner were there just to see them off and make sure they really went back to the Demon World.

Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting entered the demon world and found that the air inside was quite good and the spiritual energy was also very abundant. It felt as if they were on top of a mountain of spiritual stones.

But there was no demon next to the boundary. Shi Nia had a vague impression of his childhood home.

“I remember playing over here when I was a child.”

If he hadn’t been so close to the boundary, he couldn’t have been tricked out.

When he went further in, it became clear why. There was another boundary on this side.

It was a very simple one. At most, it could stop young demons who were still weak.

When the two crossed this second boundary, there was a lot more activity inside.

There were many young demons playing, and some older demons had released their forms to bask in the sun. Many demons are too lazy to maintain their human form in the demon world, so their original bodies felt much more natural.

So when Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting appeared, they instantly attracted the demons’ attention in unison.

Shi Nian told Lu Bo Ting, “Let’s change into the other forms.”

Lu Bo Ting naturally would not refuse, and the two transformed into their original forms on the spot.

This time, there were even more demons looking over.

It turned out that it wasn’t just because they maintained their human forms, but because they were unfamiliar. When they transformed into their original forms, a bunch of demons instantly gathered around them.

“Phoenix and dragon?”

“Where did they come from? I’ve seen the phoenixes and dragons in the demon world. There’s no such thing as them! ”

Shi Nian waited until they were almost done talking before revealing his identity, “As for him, he’s my daoist companion that I brought back from another world.”

The news instantly spread throughout the demon world.

Not long after, the Phoenix and Dragon Clans arrived. These two clans always had few offspring, and pure-blooded phoenixes and dragons were even fewer.

An old dragon of the Dragon Clan was still saying, “Good, this little dragon is good. Although we have intermarried with other clans, we have never been with a phoenix before. ”

The Phoenix side was much more excited. Their little phoenix that had been missing for years was back!

Ever since something happened to the little phoenix last time, the demon world had added another barrier inside. If it weren’t for the fact that the older demons couldn’t get out once they reached a certain level of strength, and the younger ones would have a crying nest of little ones by the time they could go out, demons would have already been sent out to look for Shi Nian.

After the excited acknowledgement, Shi Nian proudly introduced Lu Bo Ting to them.

“You guys help take a look for an auspicious day. We want to get married in the demon world.”

Of course, there were not so many ritual signs in the demon world.

“Just go into that cave, stay for a few days, and then come out.”

Simply throw yourself inside the cave and it’s done.

Shi Nian: “…”

Won’t you tell us something, like what’s going on inside, what the rules are, what the process is…?

But no, nothing.

The two had to go all the way in, and then they saw a bright light flashing inside. Inside was a large, irregularly shaped stone chamber, and the walls were covered with the claw marks of various demons.

They were strangely stacked in pairs and never tangled with other claw marks.

There were some simple words written next to them. Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting read them and realised that all these were claw marks made together by pairs of demon daosit couples.

So they went and made one too.

“That’s it?” Shi Nian wondered, “Does it need so long just to make a claw mark?”

Only to see Lu Bo Ting pointing further ahead. Shi Nian followed and took a look. Crap, what a big bed!

It seemed to be at least 20 to 30 meters. No wonder they made such a big cave, otherwise, the bed would not even fit.

The bed was made with a kind of jade, and it was glowing with light. Shi Nian thought it was a platform when they first came in.

Stay a few days….

Good lord, it was finally clear what would be done during those days.
