Chapter 364 September Coral Beads
Chapter 364 September Coral Beads
For many days, all kinds of treasures related to the moon, mountains and rivers were sent to the Longyue Palace.
They even gave away a few of the best osmanthus trees.
What made the Pingjiang Demon King extremely happy was that the beauty's expression actually seemed to relax!
It immediately made him feel better.
But soon after, the maid serving the beauty came to report that Miss Wangyue had gradually lost interest in these things and was still unhappy every day.
Hearing this, the demon king became extremely anxious.
What should he do? He just broke through some of the ice, he couldn't let it freeze again!
"My king, although the items you gave me are rare and beautiful, they are only for viewing. After seeing them too much, I will get bored. But that person is a human cultivator. If you give him some magic tools that are both for viewing and have practical effects, wouldn't he be very happy?"
The little crocodile demon suggested.
Hearing this, the Demon King thought for a while and clapped his hands.
"You're right, let's do it!"
-
The next day, various magical weapons that were both beautiful and practical and in line with the beauty's wishes were sent over.
But a few days later, the maid came again and said that Miss Wangyue had also lost interest in these things.
At first, I took a look at them and tried them, but later, I asked them to take them all away and return them.
"Why is this not working again?"
The demon king paced back and forth anxiously, feeling overwhelmed.
Seeing this, the maid said cautiously: "The young lady said that although these treasures are precious, they are all of medium and low quality. It's enough to just look at them, so... ask the servants to return them to the king..."
Hearing this, the demon king stopped immediately.
I slapped my head and suddenly realized it.
Yes, given the beauty's peerless beauty, many men must have shown their love to her with treasures. She must have seen too many rare treasures, so her eyes became picky.
So much so that the treasures he carefully gave her were just novelties to her but did not really catch her eye.
I'm afraid that only more advanced treasures can impress the heart of a beauty.
Thinking of this, his expression changed, and he walked to the back of the hall, turned left and right, and entered a luxuriously decorated room.
This place covers a large area, it is better to say it is a small palace than a room. The palace door is carved from a huge blue crystal, inlaid with pearls and gems of various colors, as numerous as stars.
There are countless rare treasures in the palace, which is exactly the Demon King's other bedroom.
No one is allowed to enter without being summoned.
Even the beauties who had enjoyed sensual pleasures with him in the past were not given the chance to enter.
He walked to a gold-painted shelf, broke the protective spell on the shelf, and took out a snow-white clam shell from it.
He gently opened the clam shell and looked inside.
Inside the clam shell, there was a coral bead with nine round or crescent moon patterns lying quietly, emitting a sparkling light.
The demon king's eyes flickered slightly, and his expression changed, as if he was a little conflicted.
But thinking of the beautiful woman's stunning appearance and noble origin, he finally made up his mind and took out the pearl.
"Forget it! As long as this pearl is in my water palace, even the mighty Yan Tian will have to shake his head and sigh!"
As long as you don't leave the Water Palace, nothing will happen.
But will he let the other person go? Of course not!
There are nine moons on this pearl, and each moon has a different shape. They are not man-made, but formed naturally. It is truly a work of genius!
What's more, he was the only one who knew the spell to use the pearl. Even if he let the beauty play with it at will, he would not be afraid that she would accidentally manipulate it and make it lose its effect.
This is a magic weapon of the highest quality. If it can please a beautiful woman... make her smile...
Thinking of this, his expression suddenly brightened up, and he took the pearl and went out.
-
In the Hazy Moon Palace.
"Girl, the king is here!"
A fish princess swam in and bowed her head respectfully.
Hearing this, the woman in the room raised her eyebrows slightly, and then said lightly: "I know."
Not long after, a hearty laugh was heard from outside the hall, and the sound came from far away and got closer.
"Miss Wangyue, I'm here to see you!"
The Pingjiang Demon King could not wait to enter the room, but saw the woman he had been thinking about with her back to him, just as usual.
The smile on his face paused, but he pretended to be nonchalant and walked around to the woman.
Looking at the woman's beautiful face, my soul suddenly drifted away.
He said hesitantly, "Miss...I heard that you seem to be in a bad mood recently, so I brought you something good, and I would like to share it with you!"
Hearing this, the woman glanced at him calmly and said, "Don't bother, Your Majesty."
As she said this, she turned around and sat on the embroidery stool.
Seeing this, the demon king immediately followed and said anxiously: "This time it's different, it's a real treasure! The girl will definitely like it when she sees it."
As he spoke, he carefully took out the magic weapon, placed it in front of the woman, and carefully observed her expression.
But the beauty just lowered her head slightly and glanced at him reservedly, then stopped looking.
There is a play!
The demon king was delighted and introduced it quickly: "This is the most precious treasure in my house, named the Nine-Moon Coral Bead! The nine months on it correspond to the waxing and waning phases of the moon. It is naturally formed and a masterpiece of divine craftsmanship! As long as this treasure is here, it can conceal all traces of the heavenly secrets and auras, even the great master of the cave cannot count!"
Hearing this, the woman's eyes were slightly moved. She looked at the nine-month patterns on the paper one by one, and even stretched out her hand to carefully touch the patterns on it, and then she smiled.
This smile was like the clouds disappearing and the rain clearing up, revealing the moon, as if the whole world was lit up.
Not to mention the Demon King, even the fish girls around were fascinated and intoxicated by it.
"You... smiled?"
The demon king muttered, then burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, great! I told you that you would like this treasure!"
Seeing the woman's reserved expression regained, the demon king was secretly pleased. Then he pretended to be generous and magnanimous and stuffed the pearl into her hand. "Here, since you like it, you can play with it!"
He carefully observed the other person's expression, and found that although the beauty's face was still cold, her eyes had relaxed and revealed a rare warm light.
Sure enough! It hits the mark!
His mood also changed from being gloomy to being cheerful.
So he struck while the iron was hot and asked in a gentle voice, "Speaking of which, I know your name, but I don't know where you live? Where are you from?"
The so-called knowing yourself and knowing your enemy means that you can understand the other person better and cater to his or her preferences better, so that the other person will open his or her heart to you!
That’s right, take every step carefully!
Hearing this, the woman's brows slightly frowned, as if she was conflicted.
But perhaps it was because she saw the gentle voice of the person next to her, who even took out such a precious treasure for her own sake, that her expression could not help but relax a little, and she said softly: "My daughter is from Zhenzhou, and her family lives in Xibei Mountain. I was adopted by my teacher, Taoist Xibei, and have lived in the mountains since I was a child, practicing Taoism. After my teacher passed away, my daughter observed mourning for three years before coming down the mountain."
Xibei Mountain?
What's this weird name? How come I haven't heard of it before?
Never mind! It must be an unknown hill in Zhenzhou. It doesn’t matter.
The important thing is...
According to what Miss Wangyue said, isn't she currently alone and helpless?
If you can take advantage of the opportunity...
But seeing the woman's slightly drooping eyelids and the sadness in her eyes, he knew he couldn't act too hastily. After comforting her, he left the hall.
I originally wanted to send my subordinates to Xibe Mountain to investigate, but I was caught off guard by a strange incident.
-
"Report! Report to the king! It's snowing outside!"
Hearing this, the Demon King was extremely shocked.
"What? Xiangzhou is located in the south, and it is hot and humid all year round. Not to mention snow, even the mortals on the shore don't wear cotton-padded jackets in winter! How can it snow?"
