Chapter 197: 196: Brother? Sister!

Long Qing hadn't expected that her destined husband would actually be of her own clan, but that made her even more meticulous.

As for the fact that he already has a wife, and what relationship the wanted criminal by his side has with him, Long Qing doesn't care.

She is a monster of the same type as Chai Zhi; as long as Wang Wu likes her, that's enough, and how many other partners he has is not important at all.

Of course, if Wang Wu truly doesn't like her, she would of course be extremely sad, but that's all—she would just sit in a corner, grieving silently, and would not do anything else.

Unlike some bird demons, who would act directly... uh, never mind, let's not talk about that.

"No, it's fine, it's fine!"

Long Qing stepped forward, her expression excited as she looked at Wang Wu: "I'm not a bird demon; I can also be your wife, you, you... I, I really... like you!"

"The moment I first saw you, I... I fell in love with you!"

"Ah?"

Wang Wu was taken aback by those words; they did have an effect, but not enough to make him lower his guard completely.

Long Qing moved forward, Wang Wu stepped back, pulling Yin Shenli back two steps:

"What are you saying? That you fell in love with me the first time you saw me? You must be joking, right?"

Wang Wu, of course, knows about love at first sight, but he had only seen such situations in movies and TV shows before.

As for reality? He has never experienced love at first sight with any woman from childhood to now; uh, seeing someone is quite different from love at first sight.

And he himself doesn't really believe in love at first sight; to put it simply, in his view, such a thing probably only exists in romance stories.

In reality, falling in love with someone after a very short time together already counts as love at first sight in his eyes.

"We don't even know each other yet; do you know what my name is?"

"I... I am Long Qing!" Long Qing stepped forward, "I... I know, I know this is abrupt, but I don't have much time left!"

Long Qing said, "I might die here, because I have to go find my brother. This world is dangerous, and I'm not sure I can find him, nor am I sure I can live until I give up."

"But you..."

She looked at Wang Wu, flames burning in her eyes; seeing those blazing eyes, Wang Wu felt an intense, sincere warmth.

This woman... ah no, this female demon, is indeed serious.

She truly fell in love with him at first sight.

Wang Wu had never encountered such a situation, so he didn't know how to handle it. Thus, the two demons stared at each other, and after a while, Wang Wu stammered out:

"Uh, this, what you said, I... uh, even if you, uh, that..."

"Uh, well, how to put it, you are indeed beautiful, and I don't dislike you. And if you truly aren't that kind of bird demon, willing to become my... uh, in short, let's start as friends first?"

"I'm sorry, although you fell in love with me at first sight, I don't feel that way about you yet."

After a long stalemate, Wang Wu finally gave a hesitant reply.

That response made someone a bit upset, and made the light in someone's eyes shine even brighter.

"Fuck, why are you stuttering? Are you sick? So disgusting, why are you stuttering?"

For some reason, when she saw Wang Wu act like that, Yin Shenli suddenly felt a bit annoyed.

As for why she's annoyed, she doesn't need a reason; being annoyed is just being annoyed.

"So, then..." Upon hearing Wang Wu agree to start as friends, Long Qing immediately wanted to exchange friendship with him.

As for what her 'exchange of friendship' means... it's just a monster‑clan style of friendship exchange; just know it exists, no need to elaborate.

"Uh, how about we look for your brother first? I should be able to help." Wang Wu changed the subject, not to refuse but to find the brother first.

"Huh? You, you're willing to help me find my brother?" Long Qing was stunned; she hadn't expected her crush to be willing to do that.

She certainly hadn't forgotten her brother, even while being dazzled by Wang Wu.

The reason she confessed to Wang Wu right away and wanted to marry him is because, as she said earlier, she's not sure how long she can still live.

She has a very deep bond with her brother Long He; even though she fell for Wang Wu at first sight, that isn't enough to make her forget her brother, and in fact she could never forget him.

She isn't that kind of monster; she's very sentimental.

Because she didn't know whether she could find her brother or how long she could live in this place, she chose to confess to Wang Wu first; if possible, the two would marry outright, with cloud‑rain in Gaotang, Wu Shan cloud‑rain, male‑female love...

After that, she would set off immediately to search for her brother.

But now, even though Wang Wu says he hasn't fallen for her yet, he, but he still...

"You, you really..."

"By the way, Master, do you know where her brother is?" Wang Wu stopped focusing on the stuttering Long Qing and asked his master.

He didn't know his master's plans, but since the other's brother also ended up here, asking the master should be fine.

"Why should I help her?"

Long He was separated from his own brother because of Yin Shenli's arrangement; she knows exactly where her brother is now.

But for some reason, when Wang Wu asked her about this, she suddenly became even more annoyed.

"Wife, please be kind, wife..."

Seeing Yin Shenli playing another mood swing, Wang Wu knew what to do, so he hugged her again and tiptoed up to her.

It was a bit awkward, but unavoidable; Yin Shenli is almost two meters tall—her pure height is 1.95 m, and with shoes she's close to two meters, so she naturally needs to be on tiptoe.

In this respect, Wu Er Niang is the same, even taller at a full 1.97 m.

Yet after this combination move, Yin Shenli still wore an utterly indifferent expression.

Even though her face and earlobes were reddened to the point of bleeding, her palms now bore a pressure of tens of millions of atmospheres.

Indeed, tens of millions of atmospheres—enough to make hydrogen conductive, commonly called metallic hydrogen.

That is the terrifying aspect of a peerless master.

Seeing that Yin Shenli hadn't broken her defense, Wang Wu realized his master might truly be jealous.

And since that was the case, he could only unleash his trump card.

He directly lifted Yin Shenli and placed her on the nearby building rubble, then began to take off her shoes.

Although she only lets Wang Wu do this when she calls it a "reward" each day, in truth she can't stand it.

As for what to do? Of course, she wants Wang Wu to wash her feet—properly wash her feet, don't get any lewd ideas.

Wang Wu has no hesitation about such things; it's just washing feet, he doesn't shy away from that kind of thing, let alone this.

As for the water used to wash feet, of course it's Wang Wu's exclusive formula—a golden‑jade liquid made of moisture, electrolytes and enzymes—a very rare foot‑washing water that Wang Wu treasures, which ordinary people can never enjoy.

Very diligent and hardworking, Wang Wu has been serving his master for a long time; he knows exactly how many lines are on his master's feet, and naturally treats every corner properly.

In short, after a barrage of flattery, whether Yin Shenli is satisfied or not is another matter, but Long Qing is already so embarrassed that the toes in her shoes seem ready to poke out three rooms and a hall.

"He—does he like it like this?"

"Then I…"

"Alright."

At that moment, just as Long Qing's thoughts drifted elsewhere, Wang Wu's voice sounded beside her ear: "Let's go find your brother, and I still need to tell you something."

Wang Wu, wiping his mouth, approached the dazed Chai Zhi and patted her shoulder.

The slap from Wang Wu made Chai Zhi's body stiffen instantly, then she lurched violently, nearly falling to the ground.

Fortunately, Wang Wu was quick; he reached out, grabbed her waist, steadied her, and said to Long Qing: "The master is willing to take us to find your brother. Your brother currently has no safety issues, it's just a bit far from here, don't worry."

"Okay, okay."

Regaining her senses, Long Qing nodded repeatedly.

While nodding, she also glanced at Chai Zhi over there.

Noticing her gaze, Wang Wu said, "Oh right, I should mention that Chai Zhi only intends to surrender. I've already persuaded her, she agreed, we were about to turn ourselves in, but you arrived first."

"That said, does this count as surrender?"

"Of course, it's fine!" To boost her crush—no, crush‑demon's—favorability, Long Qing promptly nodded, "Then we'll take her straight back and let her surrender to the local authority."

"In that case, the punishment can be reduced."

After speaking, Long Qing looked at Chai Zhi again; her face was now as red as the earlobe of Long Qing's beloved demon wife, and she looked like a blazing fire.

"If she's willing to reveal her comrades' whereabouts, we might be able to go further…"

"No! I don't want to!"

But when this was mentioned, the previously dazed Chai Zhi snapped to attention, shook her head violently, "Those things were taken by the Li family by plundering the people's wealth; I would never betray my companions!"

"I know, I know…" Long Qing waved her hand quickly, "We've heard about the Li family's affairs, so I'll help you with this. Though the Long family isn't in Qing'an City, we still have a bit of influence there."

"I'll speak up; your case can be big or small, and with your surrender, it should help minimize your sentence."

"WTF, what kind of favor society is this?"

Long Qing's remark made Wang Wu click his tongue in disbelief, but he was no stranger to such things.

"Then thank you, Miss Long." Wang Wu nodded at Long Qing, "Oh right, I almost forgot, I'm Wang Wu."

"Wang… Wang Wu?" Long Qing was startled, "Wang Wu? I don't know what kind of demon race you, brother Wang Wu, belong to…"

"Um, I'm not old; you can call me brother." Wang Wu said, "How old are you this year?"

"Four hundred?" Long Qing thought and said.

"I'm not as old as you." Wang Wu smiled, "Sister Long."

Long Qing's face flushed, she nodded, "Then, we shouldn't delay; shall we go find my brother?"

"Hmm." Wang Wu looked at his master, whose face remained cold, but his hand still activated the Mirror‑Flower Water‑Moon.

"Pass through this door, and you'll reach your brother's side."

Wang Wu smiled, introducing the way to Long Qing, then turned, gave Chai Zhi a slight nod, and stepped into the Mirror‑Flower Water‑Moon first.

Long Qing's brother Long He was soon found; his appearance isn't exactly identical to Long Qing's, yet the difference is hard to discern.

Moreover…

This kid seems, when he sees himself, his gaze is a bit off.

"Oh right, Wang… Wu brother?" Long Qing, seeing that Wang Wu was clearly a bit fearful of his own brother, and that Long He, who was obviously just like him, had been mentally struck by Wang Wu, tentatively called Wang Wu.

"What's up?"

Hearing that Wang Wu had no objection to the address, Long Qing felt secretly pleased, then explained:

"My brother… though called that, actually… actually is female."

"What the hell are you spouting???"

The words came out before Wang Wu could react, but Yin Shenli started cursing:

"Are you kidding me? This kid is clearly male, you say female—can you stop being so disgusting?"

"Um…" Facing Yin Shenli's outburst, Long Qing was a bit embarrassed but still explained:

"Long He is indeed female…"

"If you don't believe," Long Qing said, walking toward Long He, who was being protected by the two girls, and with a "tss—" sound…

Alright, indeed a mother demon.

Watching himself being lifted by his own sister, despite extreme shyness, he still extended his body toward Long He; after a moment of stunned silence, Wang Wu also nodded.

Demons don't differ in stature, but Long He—um—Long He…

She's even worse than Shu Niang.

Of course, this isn't an insult to Shu Niang; Shu Niang's figure is actually great, if placed in the old Earth home. Um, ordinary Earth, not the Earth of the masters.

Her figure ranks among the top among Earth women, though it isn't that large.

As for Long He, Long He is even smaller, yet still quite perfect.

But when she puts on clothes, Wang Wu doesn't know what magic the garment has, that it can make both him and his master see incorrectly.

Or perhaps it's not the clothing's fault?

Wang Wu doesn't know.

Long He quickly had an extra piece of clothing appear on them, the one they themselves wore from Wang Wu's spatial ring; although they showed little reaction, the two sisters erupted into conflict because of it.

"You can just wear mine, okay? I'm your sister; give me Brother Wu's clothes, will you?"

"No, it's fine, sis, I'll just wear this; you wear yours."

"Give it to me!!!!"

"Not giving!!"

"I told you to give it to me!! Do you damn well want to die!!!"

"Wang Wu, Wang Wu, save me, save me! Sis is bullying me!!!"

After discovering that Long He was also female, Wang Wu naturally was no longer that fearful of the fellow. Moreover, judging from Long Qing's behavior up to now, she indeed does not seem to be the bird demon type.

Thus, his heart finally settled at this point.

The sisters reunited, and Chi Zhi also ran into the bounty hunter who came to capture her. With matters here concluded, Wang Wu boarded the Long sisters' spaceship and left this star system.

As for Catherine and Lingluo, since they have no family here either, Wang Wu, being their friend, naturally wouldn't leave them alone, so he called a ride‑hailing car for the two to take them to his own residence.

Which is the Heavenly Origin Realm, Heavenly Python City.

The relationship between the two and Wang Wu is merely that of friends, but Wang Wu is not one to shortchange his friends, so when they encounter difficulties he naturally lends a hand.

Of course, in the end, their relationship with Wang Wu is just like Xie Yu's relationship with Wang Wu—simply friends.

"What kind of place is the Wind Nation?"

Although she had previously heard Chi Zhi talk about her hometown, she has been away from home for a while, so her knowledge in this regard is certainly not as extensive as that of the Long sisters.

Come to think of it, Long He, that tomboy, is downright a super tomboy.

She always wears men's clothing and usually presents herself as male; the reason, in fact, stems from her mother's and her own vanity.

After all, twin sisters don't carry as much prestige as twin brother‑sister pairs; if a demon clan manages to outshine a twin brother‑sister or sibling duo, that's a matter of great face.

Twins already have plenty of face, enough to be top among demons, and the Dragon‑Phoenix twins are truly unbeatable, even for Brother Wu.
