You, a monster, still want to travel to the West?

"how?"

"If I don't beat you up, who else should I beat up?"

"Haha."

……

After chatting for a while, Xia Zhiming turned around and asked, "So, the Flaming Mountain is still burning now?"

The Bull Demon King nodded: "It's still burning."

"It's better to resolve a feud than to create one. Why has it dragged on until now?"

"Brother, are you blaming my wife and I for being unreasonable?"

Xia Zhiming shook his head: "I don't know what other twists and turns there are, but I won't randomly judge others' right or wrong."

The Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan exchanged a glance, both smiling. Then they sighed, "My dear brother, you truly see things clearly. However, you've lived in the Heavenly Palace for so long. Do you know where the Flame Mountain Divine Fire came from?"

Xia Zhiming nodded. To put it bluntly, it was the monkey's fault. At that time, the monkey kicked over Taishang Laojun's Bagua furnace, and the bricks at the bottom of the furnace fell out. However, because the bricks had long been burned through by the Liuding Divine Fire, there was residual fire inside, which allowed the fire to reignite.

After listening to Xia Zhiming's explanation, the Bull Demon King sighed, "At that time, my wife didn't know where the brick came from, and she always believed that she was not at fault. If she had known then, there would have been a way to cut off the root of the fire."

"That Chi Jingzi, for unknown reasons, blamed my wife for not doing her job well. Even if he was right, he shouldn't have come to my house and robbed the treasured fan."

"It wasn't until later, when the new landowner of Flame Mountain came to us asking for the fan, and after explaining the reason, that we realized the key was the remaining fire in the brick."

"It's just that now, with him coming here to cause trouble and steal the treasure, and me getting involved, it's become a complete feud."

"That Chi Jingzi had his belongings burned twice, and was even stepped on by me, Old Ox. He feels really aggrieved and uncomfortable."

"My wife is a woman of modest means, without parents, and without anyone to rely on. Yet, a thug barged in and demanded treasures from her. To whom can I tell her of my grievances?"

"I've been in the middle of this situation, and I've long lost track of the grudges and grievances."

At this point, the Bull Demon King waved his hand and said proudly: "I am the husband's family, so naturally I have to side with my wife. Regardless of whether this matter is right or wrong, just think of me, the old bull, bullying others by taking advantage of my power. Let him burn the Flaming Mountain. I, the old bull, will not be destroyed! He can forget about living in the cave in the mountain!"

"Old Niu, I didn't expect you to be such a protective wife."

The Bull Demon King raised his glass and said with a smile: "As a man, if you can't even take responsibility at this level, what's the point of getting married?"

Xia Zhiming naturally raised his glass and said, "I like what you said."

"Haha, I forgot you have a family too. You really do understand me."

Bang! ! ! !

The wine glasses clinked together, and after a crisp sound, the only two men in the seat raised their heads at the same time and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Beside them, Qingxin and Princess Tieshan looked at this scene and smiled at each other. Yang Chan noticed this situation, and after thinking about their words, she nodded secretly with a shining look in her eyes.

After finishing his drink, Xia Zhiming glanced at Yang Chan and Qing Xin, who had stopped eating, and asked, "Old Ox, where did Demon King Peng go now after giving you his cave?"

"You want to go find him?"

"I got some royal wine, but I can't tell the difference between good and bad wine, so I wasted it, so I'm going to share some with my brothers."

"In that case, going east from here, towards the Kingdom of Women, there is a mountain called Poisonous Enemy Mountain. Inside the mountain is a Pipa Cave, which is not far from here."

"The Kingdom of Women..."

When Xia Zhiming heard this, he couldn't help but twitch his lips and frowned without saying a word.

Seeing him like this, the Bull Demon King smiled and said, "The Poisonous Enemy Mountain is a thousand miles away from the Ion Mother River. There's no need to be so cautious, my dear brother."

"Don't mention the river."

"Haha, Old Niu, I didn't think so before, but ever since I got married to my wife, I've been avoiding her."

"I didn't expect that you, Lao Niu, are also a pure love god of war."

"Although I don't understand what you are saying, thank you for the compliment, brother."

"It should, it should."

Since then, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, and Xia Zhiming took Qingxin and Yang Chan to say goodbye to the couple.

Bull Demon King couldn't keep her, so he and Princess Iron Fan had to stand up and see her off.

After everyone had parted ways, the Bull Demon King watched the two men and the snake leave on a cloud. He then took the hand of Princess Iron Fan and returned to the cave, saying with a smile, "Madam, how is my brother?"

Princess Iron Fan rolled her eyes at him but said nothing. She just took out the gifts given by Xia Zhiming and looked through them one by one.

Finally, after Princess Iron Fan had put on the cloud brocade dress and gently stroked the hem of it, she said joyfully, "I've often heard people say that perfect clothing is flawless, and today I'm lucky enough to have won one."

The Bull Demon King picked up the golden elixir from the table and said with a smile: "Madam, you don't know the value of things. How could the elixir given by the White Snake be an ordinary thing?"

"Could it be the Nine Transformations Golden Pill of Taishang Laojun?"

"Hahaha, ma'am, you don't know that my brother is called the Guardian of Lihentian, and his home is next to the Tushita Palace. The elixir he gave must have been made by the Dao Ancestor."

After saying that, Bull Demon King picked up a golden elixir and handed it to his wife, but Princess Iron Fan took one in each hand and snatched both away and put them away.

After Bull Demon King looked over in confusion, Princess Iron Fan explained, "You and I are husband and wife. If we have children in the future, you can use this golden elixir to help him cultivate. Don't waste it."

Hearing this, the Bull Demon King was stunned for a moment, then he hugged Princess Iron Fan and said with a smile: "My wife is truly virtuous, but I, Old Bull, didn't think that far ahead."

"Husband, please don't touch me~"

"..."

Chapter 118 Companionship and Friendship

the other side--

Above the clouds, Qing Xin held Yang Chan's hand and said, "Thank you for the reminder, sister."

Yang Chan immediately smiled and teased: "Sister Qingxin, you look so cute sitting there drinking tea."

Qing Xin blushed slightly and said a little embarrassedly: "Don't make fun of me, I have never poured wine for him before."

"Normally, it's not necessary, but Princess Iron Fan did it herself, so Sister Qingxin, you naturally can't lose to her."

"Ok."

Qing Xin nodded in confusion. Seeing her like this, Yang Chan couldn't help but remind her: "Then, no matter who offers you a toast, ignore it and leave it to your brother, just like we did at Guanjiangkou."

"Ah."

"Absolutely, absolutely do not clink glasses with anyone, especially a man."

"I know this."

"Also, don't eat fruit or anything else that leaves pits or bones."

Qingxin was puzzled: "Why is this?"

Yang Chan said excitedly: "Because..."

However, Xia Zhiming, who was standing next to him, suddenly interrupted and said with a smile, "Yang Chan, don't teach me this."

"Brother, are you feeling bad?"

"I really don't want to, but if you keep calling me that, Yang Jian might serve you a bowl of snake soup one day."

"Cuckoo~"

Xia Zhiming looked at Qingxin who was looking at him and said with a smile: "Qingxin, don't learn these things."

Qingxin nodded obediently after hearing this, but still looked a little upset.

Seeing her like this, Xia Zhiming couldn't help but pinch her cheek and said with a smile: "Become smaller."

"why?"

"Because now your attributes overlap."

"You're talking nonsense again."

Qingxin rolled her eyes at him, and then, in front of Yang Chan's stunned gaze, she turned back into her little girl self, and was soon picked up by Xia Zhiming, holding her waist.

At this time, Xia Zhiming looked at the little girl in his arms and smiled: "Next time you encounter such a situation, you will change back to this appearance. No matter what you do, no one will say anything to you."

"Zhiming, I will learn it in the future."

"But I don't like it."

"why?"

"If Qingxin didn't eat greedily, she wouldn't be Qingxin anymore."

"Hmph~!"

When Qingxin heard this, her face suddenly puffed up and turned red for a moment. Then she turned her head away angrily and ignored him.

Beside her, Yang Chan looked at the adorable little Qingxin and asked eagerly, "Sister Qingxin, can you give me a hug?"

Qingxin refused and curled up in Xia Zhiming's arms, shaking her head repeatedly. Yang Chan was amazed by her well-behaved appearance.

Only then did Xia Zhiming smile at Yang Chan and say, "Now you know why we didn't let her learn, right?"

Yang Chan nodded. She herself couldn't stand those complicated rules. If she could rely on this trick to avoid them, she would definitely not learn it!

But at this time, Yang Chan continued to ask: "Brother, how could you do this?"

"She's grown up now."

"What about before?"

Xia Zhiming was about to answer when Xiao Qingxin in his arms reached out and touched his cheek, then said to Yang Chan, "I actually watched him grow up."

Yang Chan: “…”

Xia Zhiming: “…”

Yang Chan looked at Xia Zhiming, and after he nodded helplessly, she asked doubtfully, "Brother, how many years have you been together?"

"If you actually calculate it, it's probably over two thousand years."

"So when did you get married?"

"Not yet, actually."

"Why haven't you gotten married in so long?"

"Because I still have to accompany her to grow up?"

"..."

Yang Chan was speechless for a moment. Looking at Xiao Qingxin in Xia Zhiming's arms, she recalled the white snake on the girl's shoulder. After her eyes flashed for a moment, she nodded slowly.

-

Dudi Mountain is not far from Cuiyun Mountain. After chatting for a while on the clouds, the three of them reached their destination.

After some searching, I suddenly saw a bright blue stone wall that looked like a screen. After turning around the stone screen, I saw two stone doors with six large characters on them: "Dudi Mountain Pipa Cave."

Seeing this somewhat shabby-looking cave, Xia Zhiming couldn't help but chuckle, then reached out and rang the bell outside the door.

After a while, a maid in colorful embroidered clothes opened the door and asked, "Which immortals are you from and why are you knocking?"

Xia Zhiming glanced at Qingxin in his arms, then smiled and said, "Please inform Demon King Peng that King Qingxin of Kutuo Mountain is visiting with his friends."

The maid nodded quickly, closed the door and went in to report, leaving the three people outside waiting there.

At this time, Xiao Qingxin frowned and said, "Zhiming, you are the head of the family."

"Qingxin, is it possible that they all followed the monkey and called me White Snake? In fact, they may have forgotten my real name a long time ago."

Qing Xin asked doubtfully: "This... shouldn't be the case, right?"

Xia Zhiming laughed and said, "We've only seen them twice so far, and it seems the Bull Demon King has only seen them three times?"

Qing Xin was stunned: "It seems so..."

Yang Chan was also puzzled: "Then the Bull Demon King still calls you his brother?"

Xia Zhiming looked at Yang Chan and teased, "I've only met you once, how dare you follow me around?"

"Because you and my second brother are brothers."

"Actually, including last time, your brother and I have only met three times."

"?"

Yang Chan immediately questioned herself, and after thinking for a moment, she asked tentatively, "Brother, you're not planning on selling me out, are you?"
