ninety thousand miles

Chapter 416 Matchmaking
"How old are your sisters?" Li Chuan asked.

The pointed-faced succubus said: "You are only 800 years old. Among us demon cultivators, this is considered the right age."

Li Chuan didn't want to continue discussing the age issue with her, so he said, "So you think she would not get involved in human affairs under normal circumstances?"

"Definitely not," the pointed-faced banshee said firmly, "and when we met, she actually advised me not to wait for death like this. I don't think I'm that bad, right? Three hundred years ago , I am also a big demon who occupies a mountain. I have a reputation of being evil and no one dares to mess with me. Why do I just wait to die? "

"Are you still a mountain king?" Li Chuan was surprised.

The pointed-faced banshee said: "Yes, at that time, I had fifty or sixty little demons under my command, and I was worried about where to find food for them every day. As soon as the weather got a little better, a group of rebels came over and robbed us. In order to obtain food and weapons, I had no choice but to take the little demons everywhere, all the way to Batu Cave, where a giant python that had been refined for three thousand years lived. I originally went to seek refuge with him, but I didn’t expect that when he saw us, he would stop. After eating all the little monsters and trying to eat me, I had no choice but to continue running away, and finally escaped to the edge of Tianju Mountain, where I was rescued by the Master of Cangming Hall. He allowed me to move around, and after that I could practice with peace of mind, and even made friends with them. Many good friends to this day.”

"Your experience has been quite tortuous." Li Chuan praised dryly, but suddenly he felt something was wrong. He asked, "That Prince Su..."

"Say." the pointed-faced succubus said.

"Prince Su was under house arrest last fall. Your sister still persuaded you to defect to him?" Li Chuan asked.

"She came to me just because she wanted to save her." The pointed-faced succubus said, "Listen, is this ridiculous? Who is Gong Wuguang? The Spirit Fish King of Suliu River is so powerful that he has been beaten by him. Killed. Why don’t I go and deliver food?”

"Then did she go to save Prince Su?" Li Chuan asked.

"I don't know about that. After I rejected her, I don't know where she went. By the way, if you are in the capital, have you seen Gong Wuguang?" asked the sharp-faced banshee.

"I've seen it before," Li Chuan said.

"Is his house covered with monster furs and using monster heads as lanterns?" asked the pointed-faced banshee.

"Isn't this possible?" Li Chuan had never been to Gong Wuguang's residence, but he thought that Gong Wuguang should not have such strange hobbies.

"Anyway, I won't wade into this muddy water. Tell me, did Prince Su use any tricks on my sister? It must be yes. Otherwise, he is a mortal prince who is almost fifty and half of his body is buried in the ground. How could it be possible? Will any monster really help him?" The sharp-faced banshee became more and more sure of her guess, "Since he is dead, the method is probably ineffective. I will try to persuade her when I meet my sister next time."

"Can you find your sister?" Li Chuan asked.

The pointed-faced succubus was a little wary and asked, "What? You want to find her?"

Li Chuan hesitated for a moment and said, "I work in Qintian Prison."

He knew that each of these demon cultivators living outside the Four Gods Palace had some past, and they were not simple and easy to deceive like Gong Er Pang San. He wasn't sure he could deceive them, so he might as well tell the truth.

"Huh? Aren't you a distinguished guest of the Four Gods Palace?" the pointed-faced banshee asked curiously.

Li Chuan didn't know how to answer for a while.

The pointed-faced banshee asked again: "Are you...from the Monster Hunting Department?"

"No, I do paperwork." Li Chuan said, "Prince Su is dead, and this case is closed. But... there are still many questions in it, and I can't find the answers. Not just your sisters, but also some monks , are all involved.”

"If you can find your sister, can you invite her to the Four Gods Palace and let me ask a few questions?" Li Chuan asked.

"You don't want to catch her, do you?" The pointed-faced banshee hid back.

"No arrest." Li Chuan said.

"Really?" The pointed-faced succubus looked disbelieving.

Li Chuan promised: "If you bring her to Sishen Palace to find me, I will definitely not arrest her; and I will not arrest her if we meet her elsewhere in the future."

The pointed-faced banshee looked Li Chuan up and down and said, "I don't know where she is now. I'll just keep an eye on her." As she spoke, she stood up and walked out, "I'm going to see how my friend is doing." Okay, let's talk again..." The voice gradually faded away, and the figure disappeared.

Li Chuan shook his head and took a sip of tea. He didn't expect that the name Qin Tianjian could really scare away the demon.

He paid for his tea, stood up, and planned to go somewhere else. After taking two steps, he was stopped again by someone.

"My friend, please stay."

Li Chuan raised his head and saw Yu Wansheng, the leader of the Yu clan, striding from the front with two guards.

Yu Wansheng stopped in front of Li Chuan and said, "We met yesterday." Then he introduced himself: "I am the half-demon of Cangwu Wilderness, the leader of the Yu Clan, Yu Wansheng."

"I am Li Chuan. I am... a guest at the Sishen Palace right now." Li Chuan said.

Yu Wansheng said familiarly: "I saw that I am a few years older than you, so I asked you to call me Li Xiandi."

"Clan Chief Yu is welcome," Li Chuan said.

Yu Wansheng said: "It's my first time coming to the Four Gods Palace, and I'm unfamiliar with everything. Can you show me around?"

"Okay." Li Chuan agreed immediately. He has always been curious about half-demon, and he also has some affection for the Yu Clan because of Yu Chen.

Li Chuan took Yu Wansheng for a walk around Tianju Mountain. With Yu Wansheng's deliberate gesture, the two quickly became familiar with each other.

When it was getting dark, Yu Wansheng said that he would treat him to dinner and thank him for taking him around today. Li Chuan guessed that Yu Wansheng had something to say, so he agreed.

During the dinner, Yu Wansheng talked about planting grass, and Li Chuan asked about Tian Wanghai's situation. He asked, "Brother Wanghai, why didn't you come with us?"

Yu Wansheng said: "Originally we were going to come together, but there were insect holes on some of the seedlings, so he stayed to catch the insects."

"So that's it." Li Chuan said.

"Do you recognize Brother Tian?" Yu Wansheng asked.

"Yes, he is really good at farming." Li Chuan said.

After the topic was opened, the atmosphere gradually became heated.

After they were almost done eating, Yu Wansheng asked: "The one who was with you before was Senior Brother Wen Guyingwen, right?"

"Yes." Li Chuan said.

"I have always admired Senior Brother Wen. If he had not stopped Immortal Yunyi more than 20 years ago, I don't know how many people would have died." Yu Wansheng finally stated his purpose, "I want to see Senior Brother Wen On the other hand, can you give me a recommendation?"

Li Chuan wanted to agree, but he didn't know how long it would take for Wen Gu to come out of Bing Xin Jing Shui Tan, and it was not good to spread the news of his injury.

So he said: "It seems that the old palace master asked him to do something before."

"Is that so..." Yu Wansheng frowned.

Li Chuan said: "When I see him next time, I will definitely tell him what you said."

Yu Wansheng said: "This is the only way."
