He waited a minute and saw that there was no movement outside before boldly asking, “Hello? Who is it?”

There was still no movement, and he cautiously walked towards the door. He leaned on the door and stuck half his head out, and saw that there was no one outside.

Yun Ping asked, “What are you looking at?”

“It’s nothing, I think I’m just hallucinating.” He sighed and patted his chest out of fear, then suddenly remembered something, glancing outside, “How do you think the beauties are doing?”

Yun Ping paused, lowered her eyes and said in a low tone, “I don’t know, I guess they may not be as lucky as us.”

In Haoqiong Hall, the old man and several people were kneeling in a row, looking at the person in the main seat and said, “Your lordship, these women, do you really want them sent back?”

Ning Pingyuan closed his eyes, and tapped on the chair with his fingers. The sound was not loud, but it was quiet and gave off an eerie atmosphere. It seemed that every tap was knocking in their hearts, and they were afraid that if he was unhappy, he would throw them out too.

Only after a long time, did he slowly open his eyes, that were like a cold star and coldy said, “Who did this?”

“It was me.” The old man hung his head and whispered.

“Elder Jiao, you’ve been with me for so many years, have you learned to go your own way?”

There was no emotion in his tone, and Jiao Peng was shocked and explained hurriedly, “Your lordship, it is precisely because I have followed for many years that I want to find you a desirable daoist partner as soon as possible. You are competing and being watched by those people every day, regardless of whether you win or lose, it is difficult for a demonic cultivator to survive the ascension tribulation… “

“So what.”

“So you should have some fun.” Jiao Pengyi blurted out.

Ning Pingyuan looked at him, and was silent for a moment, “You don’t need to find a woman.”

Jiao Pengyi was stunned for a moment and did not understand what he meant. He was about to ask more questions when his [lordship] got up and walked to his side, saying, “Throw these women out, do not dirty my place.”

“Your lordship, you really won’t think about it again? There are a few of them that are heavenly beauties. Mortals or cultivators, you can take your pick.”

Ning Pingyuan narrowed his eyes, “I don’t think you just heard what I said.”

“I’ll do it right away,” Jiao Pengyi said, “By the way, there are a few people that were sent to Gui Laohu, do you want me to send them away also?”

“Ning Pingyuan frowned, “No, recently we are short on manpower, so just let them stay for now.”

Jiao Pengyi nodded, thinking that those people would not come into contact with the Demon Lord and the Demon Lord was less likely to look at them, so he stopped asking. “Then I will go down and do it.”

When Ning Pingyi was the only one left in the hall, he closed his eyes and took a nap. The conversation between the two girls in the laundry room replayed in his mind…

But what made him care about these two people was their cultivation levels. One had a good foundation but the other one’s cultivation root had been destroyed and been reduced to a low level.

Interesting.

It was getting late and because they were on top of the mountain, it was a little cold for Mu Yuan. He didn’t bring any luggage when he ran ways and Yun Ping was obviously also empty-handed. However this chill waas not too much for her.

Mu Yuan ran around in the yard, trying to keep his body warmer. Yun Ping had already washed the clothes and dried them. At this time, she was sitting at the gate of the yard, watching him jump up and down. She couldn’t help but be curious, “Aren’t you from Fengyang Sect (1), who hurt you? Didn’t Fengyang Sect always boast about their worldly great goodness? How can they do this to their disciples?”

Mu Yuan stated, “I don’t know, it was the dog blind nonsense of the author.”

He rubbed his arms and sat next to her. As soon as he turned his head to look at her, he was slapped.

Yun Ping retracted her hand, “Don’t look at me so close, it’s scary.”

Mu Yuan wanted to know if she had any powder on her and soon became worried that the makeup would come off. How would he maintain his ugly appearance?

“Do you have a rouge gouache?” he asked. He carried some rogue on him but he didn’t know how long it would last.

Yun Ping sneered, “Do you think I need it?”

Mu Yuan shook his head without thinking about it, “You have a lot of courage, usually on TV, with disfigurements they will wear a veil in shame to cover up. You are out so directly, it’s scary and I’ve learned a lot.”

After he finished speaking, he comforted the other party: “But your eyes are really pretty.”

He was telling the truth, if you ignore the ugly scar on Yun Ping’s face, in fact she would be a great beauty, with fair, smooth skin and bright eyes.

Yun Ping snorted, “Don’t say words of admiration to me, there’s nothing for you. But what do you want to do? Do you really plan on cleaning up and taking the initiative to dedicate yourself?”

Mu Yuan laughed, “No, regardless of anything else, if I clean up even a little, I would be very charming.”

“Yuck.”

As the two people were talking, Gui Laohu brought a few people to collect the clothes. When they saw all the washed and dried clothes, they gave a satisfied look. “Come with me.”

The duo followed her into a room, which is a room separated into three sections, (2) and it was similar to the one he stayed at in Fengyang Sect.

He could already guess what this place was for.

Sure enough, he heard Gui Laohu say, “You two will live here. You will be responsible for the laundry and doing other miscellaneous tasks everyday. Don’t even think about running away, you can’t escape. If you are caught and brought back, don’t even think about keeping your body intact, understand?”

“Eh, this little one understands.” He answered obediently, the complete opposite of his attitude this afternoon.

Gui Laohu couldn’t help but give him an extra look, narrowing her small eyes and said, “Don’t think about hitting on his lordship, even those beauties were not able to catch his eyes. It’s better for certain people to be self aware.”

“I understand.” Mu Yuan nodded repeatedly and turned to the silent Yun Ping beside him, “She’s talking about you, don’t have perverted ideas about his lordship.”

“…” Yun Ping touched the sword on her body and Mu Yuan stood up and looked at Gui Laohu, “Don’t worry! I definitely won’t allow her to have any crooked ideas!”

“I think you have the most crooked ideas! By the way, the room is right next to the kitchen, so if you are hungry, you can go and eat!” Gui Laohu glared at him, giving him another scolding and then turned and left.

“He looked at the door and when he saw that there were no other traces, he fell back on the bed. “My life is so miserable.”

“Did you want to eat?”

He immediately stood up, “Let’s go!”

Although the room was not far away, the two of them still walked for a while. The outside did not look much different from an ordinary canteen, but the inside was something else.

He stood at the door dumbfounded, looking at all the people in strange outfits. Some wore ragged clothes, some fancy clothes and jade crowns, and there were even a few that were shirtless. It was really a collection of strange flowers.

The space inside was also huge and he felt, looking around, that he could not see the entire room. What attracted him the most were the strange animals flying above the room and running around on the ground, just like a zoo.

He looked towards Yun Ping and saw that the opposite party was calm, but her hands were tightly clenched on her robe. He whispered, “Don’t be afraid, they are only looking at us.”

Indeed, when they appeared at the door, the people inside suddenly calmed down, and they all looked over, with different expressions on their faces.

Seeing that her face was still very pale, Mu Yuan couldn’t help but smiled: “Guess, what are they thinking?”

Yun Ping turned to look at him, “What?”

“They must be thinking about where these two ugly ghosts came from.”

Yun Ping, “…”

“Go, let’s eat. We must be as confident as we are ugly!” Mu Yuan strode forward, and a dark-skinned man was blocking the way in front of him. He leaned towards the other party’s face, “What are you looking at, do you have a crush on this old lady?”

The man took two steps back and swallowed. The dark face suddenly blushed and he let them pass.

Mu Yuan turned his head and grinned at Yun Ping, but the makeup on his face made him look like he opened his bloody mouth. “What are you still standing there in a daze for, let’s go eat ugly.”
