Chapter 472
Yu Xi pulled Gongsun Ming to the table to eat together.
The task of cooking was mainly assigned to Gu An and Zhong Xian. Yu Xi could help out at the beginning, but after the dishes were ready, they would not let Yu Xi enter the kitchen and pushed her to eat.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Su Xianyun and Gu An went to wash the dishes, Qingpei rushed over to help, and Jizhi lay down to digest the food.
Nan Lingjun felt embarrassed to eat and drink for free, so at Yu Xi's suggestion, he went to find Luo Chunxi and took the initiative to write the first version of the update for Luo Chunxi, which he regarded as accommodation and food expenses.
Luo Chunxi didn't expect that Yu Xi would find such a gift for her. When she learned that Nan Lingjun was the author of her favorite storybook, her expression did not change, but she raised her hand from her sleeve and gave Yu Xi a big thumbs up.
That’s great! She was just about to say that the story was written too slowly. Now that the author has been caught, she will hit her head off if she doesn’t write well.
Although Luo Chunxi didn't say what she was thinking, Nan Lingjun still shuddered and touched his back in confusion.
Luo Chunxi took Nan Lingjun to write a storybook.
Xinglan sent Zunjin back, while Yu Xi went to find Jizhi who was basking in the moonlight.
Jizhi now finds everything new and interesting. He can stare at the flowers and plants on the roadside for a long time, and even touch them while looking at them. Sometimes, even if the flowers bite him, he doesn't get angry, but laughs foolishly.
But Jizhi still loves his sister the most. When he sees Yu Xi coming, he immediately rushes over and hugs her, as if he can never get tired of hugging her.
Yu Xi smiled and dragged Ji Zhi, who was hanging on her, forward. She was in a good mood and asked, "Brother, did you enjoy your meal today?"
"Happy!" Ji Zhi cheered, then said with a bitter face: "It's just that I ate too little..."
He used to be able to eat a whole wild boar in one breath!
"You ate too much before!" Yu Xi taught him sternly, "You didn't feel anything back then, and you didn't even realize you were hurting your body. Now you feel it. If you feel uncomfortable, you must stop eating immediately, understand?"
Ji Zhi listened to Yu Xi scolding him, but the smile on his face grew wider and wider. He jumped up, picked up Yu Xi and hid her in his arms, and said happily: "I know, I will listen to my sister!"
Yu Xi narrowed her eyes.
Jizhi let Yu Xi sit on his shoulders, and he picked flowers and plants that he thought were beautiful and put them on Yu Xi's head.
However, the flowers here don't move, which makes it less fun. Jizhi thinks the screaming vegetables grown by Su Xianyun are much more interesting. Not only can they run and jump, but they will also cry when they are eaten.
When he gets the chance, he will definitely go to Su Xianyun's garden and pick all the screaming vegetables for his sister to play with! His sister will definitely be happy!
The full moon was high in the sky, and the two of them walked all the way to Zhong Xian's residence under the moonlight. During the walk, Ji Zhi was curious about everything he saw and asked questions along the way, and Yu Xi patiently explained everything to him.
Zhong Xian's confidant Qingya was guarding the door of Zhong Xian's Young Master's Palace. When he saw Yu Xi coming, he was about to step forward to speak, but Zhong Xian flew out of the house faster than him and rushed straight to Yu Xi and said:
"Xiao Xi'er!"
Who would have thought that after Jizhi recovered his soul, his perception was enhanced a lot. As soon as Zhong Xian rushed out, Jizhi reacted quickly and dodged to the side with his sister in his arms, leaving Zhong Xian empty-handed.
Ji Zhi was delighted to find that he had actually dodged the bell strings. He suddenly felt the joy of a serf rising up and singing. He said in triumph:
"I won't give it to your sister! My sister likes me! I like my sister! My sister even wears my flowers!"
Then Zhong Xian grabbed him and beat him up even faster.
However, because Jizhi had regained his sense of pain, Zhong Xian reduced his strength and only hit Jizhi with a bump on the head.
By the way, I also assigned Jizhi a hundred sheets of large characters and told him not to go to bed until he finished copying them.
Jizhi looked at the table full of books in agony and looked to his sister for help.
Yu Xi looked at Zhong Xian softly and said, "Brother, it's getting late. Can you let Second Brother copy less?"
Zhong Xian quickly plucked the colorful flowers from Yu Xi's head, then spoke earnestly and politely, like a good brother:
"Xiao Xi'er, it's not good to be soft-hearted. Only those who endure hardships can become the best. I am doing this for Jizhi's own good. You are harming him by doting on him."
Jizhi was angry: "You are just jealous that my sister likes me!"
Zhong Xian laughed out loud, "How could I be jealous of you? How funny! Am I, the great Zhong Xian, such a petty person?"
As she spoke, she had already squatted beside Yu Xi, and she made a wreath of the flowers she had picked and put it on Yu Xi's head, and said happily: "Xiao Xi'er, isn't my wreath more beautiful? Xiao Xi'er still likes me more, right?"
Yu Xi smiled and pinched Zhong Xian's ears.
Finally, under Yu Xi's threat, Zhong Xian reluctantly reduced Ji Zhi's number of large characters by fifty.
Jizhi cheered "Long live sister".
Gongsun Ming, who was in the study, was full of admiration.
It was so shocking to witness with my own eyes the young master holding both Zhong Xian and Ji Zhi in his grasp. What a skill he has!
Lian Zhen saw Yu Xi coming over, and he also changed his charming and flirtatious appearance. He closed his fan, straightened his clothes, and made sure he was dressed properly before saying, "It turns out that the fourth young master is in charge of our Demon Palace."
As he said this, he gave Yu Xi a flattering smile.
In addition to Lian Zhen and Gongsun Ming from the South City of the Demon Realm, the mayors of the three cities of the East, West and North were also in the study.
The three of them didn't have time to eat, and as soon as they arrived, they were caught by Zhong Xian and questioned about official business. Now only with Yu Xi's coming could they get a break.
Seeing Yu Xi come in, the three of them immediately stood up and greeted him.
Before, Zhong Xian started to clean up the Demon Realm again. If they did something wrong, they would be caught and taught a lesson by Zhong Xian. Every time, it was Yu Xi who pleaded for them. Therefore, when they saw Yu Xi coming, smiles appeared on their faces.
Yang Xialan, the Lord of East City, was a dog demon. She had a wheat-colored complexion, a sturdy build, and a ring of canine teeth hanging around her neck. When she saw Yu Xi coming, she immediately wagged her tail and handed Yu Xi a canine tooth necklace, saying:
"Fourth Young Master! Long time no see!"
The fangs of the dog demon are excellent materials for casting weapons, and ordinary people can't even get them if they want.
"Sister Yang, long time no see!" Yu Xi called out sweetly while accepting the canine tooth necklace.
Yang Xia Lan was surrounded by burly dog demons. When she first saw Yu Xi, a little fox, she liked him so much that she almost melted. If she hadn't been beaten up by Zhong Xian, she would definitely have been snatched away by Yu Xi.
The Lord of West City is a red-haired wild boar spirit. He hates Ji Zhi, but is very friendly to Xi. He also gave Yu Xi a gift. While giving the gift, he secretly complained that Ji Zhi should be asked to copy two hundred large characters.
The Lord of North City is a demon cultivator who looks to be in his forties or fifties. He was a fallen demon who entered the demon world, but because of his strong strength, he was imprisoned and tortured in the Hall of All Evil by the previous Demon Lord. Later, Luo Chunxi became the Demon Lord and rescued him. Since then, he has been grateful to Luo Chunxi and has been loyal to him for the current demon world.
He was very polite and gave each young master a set of pens and ink, even preparing some clear and generous ones.
They were called over by Zhong Xian this time mainly to discuss the war between immortals and demons.
