Chapter 86

The Demon Master was frustrated and said, "Who is to blame for this? Before the Demon Court collapsed, I warned you that the human race would be the next generation of protagonists of heaven and earth.

The Demon Race should borrow their fortune and parasitize the human race to suck their blood!

Just like what those Saints are doing now.

You, on the other hand, in just a few hundred years, have eaten all the human seeds I specifically relocated to Beiju Bai Lu Zhou.

I let you cultivate them to continue the Demon Race's fortune, not to raise them to be eaten.

If the 'human seeds' in Beiju Bai Lu Zhou had successfully grown into a powerful empire, let alone being invaded by Great Qin, it wouldn't have been impossible to turn around and head south to take over the Central Plains.

If the 'Empire of Seed Humans' cultivated by the Demon Race had become the master of the world and even produced a Human Emperor, how much fortune could the Demon Race hiding behind the scenes have shared?

How could we have fallen to the point of repeatedly acting as the vanguard for others, becoming worse year by year!"

Peng San said sheepishly, "In recent years, we have also reflected and tried to foster an 'Empire of Seed Humans,' but we have suffered repeated crushing defeats."

The Demon Master said coldly, "What was the situation two hundred million years ago, and what is it now?

The world changes every day.

Two hundred million years ago, the Demon Race still had some heavenly favor and the foundation to participate in the game.

Now the Saints completely control the Heavenly Dao, and heaven and earth have become their shape.

Coupled with the Three Sovereigns sitting in the Huoyun Cave, stabilizing the human race's fortune.

You still want to parasitize the human race and steal their fortune?

Hmph, 'Heaven' would not allow it first, because the current 'Heaven' is them!"

When he secretly selected the "Seed Humans," the Demon Court had not yet collapsed, and the Demon Emperor had not yet passed away.

Saints like the Three Pure Ones and Nüwa had just attained the Saint's throne, and it was still early before the birth of the Three Sovereigns of the human race, so the Demon Race had the opportunity to secretly lay out plans and steal opportunities quietly.

Times have changed; by now, there is no need for the Saints and the Heavenly Court to take action; the Demon Race cannot even pass the hurdle of the Human Emperor on the ground.

"Then what should we do now?" Peng San frowned.

"What should you do? I told you long ago, stop tossing and turning, try to preserve the Demon Race's vitality, and wait quietly for heaven and earth to change again, but you wouldn't listen... Forget it, if you want to court death, I can't stop you and don't care to manage it.

Go down, and remember to handle the matters I entrusted to you well," the Demon Master said impatiently.

Peng San finally asked, "Does 'all Kunpeng descendants' include those of mixed blood?"

The Demon Master thought for a moment and said, "Use whether they have awakened Kunpeng supernatural powers as the standard; whether they are mixed-blood is not important.

Before me, all Kun and Peng born later are mixed-blood."

Sunlight shone on her face, warm and bright. Xiao Yu's eyelids trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, only to see a little girl opposite her, her eyebrows knitted into an inverted "V," her phoenix eyes wide open, her gaze very bright and sharp.

"Who are you, and why are you staring at me?" Her throat was a bit dry, and she wanted to drink water.

"You're awake, how do you feel?"

Seeing Xiao Yu wake up, the little girl showed no surprise or astonishment, but her eyebrows gradually relaxed.

"Are you... Lady Tianfeng sister?" Xiao Yu probed.

The little girl in front of her was about the same age as her, probably eleven or twelve, with a face like a peach blossom, bright eyes, and white teeth.

Her hair was tied into a single ponytail, and her eyes were bright and spirited, as if she were a martial artist.

She also looked like she had a kind of aristocratic elegance.

Then she thought of the "sister" she had never met.

"I am not your sister, nor am I any Lady Tianfeng; my name is 'Dou Sending Dou Gengyan'," the little girl said coldly.

"Dou Sending Dou Gengyan?"

Xiao Yu propped herself up and looked left and right, leaning against the pillow.

The room was very bright, and both windows were propped open from inside.

It seemed to be a pavilion; she was now at least on the second floor, as the tree branches she saw through the window were quite high, and the floor was also made of wood.

It was fourteen or fifteen square meters, with ordinary wooden beds, tables, and cabinets, and two chairs, showing signs of peeling paint.

The bedding was not too new but very clean, with no strange odors.

Two calligraphy and painting scrolls hung on the wall.

It was quite far from the boudoir of the General Guan family young lady she had expected.

Could it be that she was still at the inn?

"Dou Sending Dou Gengyan, that's a nice name. Are you my maid?" Xiao Yu asked.

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's two sword-like eyebrows folded again into an inverted "V," her gaze sharp, and her small face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. "Sha Man Yu, you seem to have not figured out your situation yet!

This is the Teaching Division of the Tianmen Town Education Department; do you know what kind of place the Teaching Division is?"

"What?" Xiao Yu widened her eyes in shock. "Teaching Division? Why would I be in the Teaching Division? My godfather is General Guan General Guan Huchen, and I am General Guan~ Yu~~"

"Hmph, the General Guan family doesn't want you anymore! The Shu Kingdom has also abandoned you." Dou Sending Dou Gengyan crossed her arms, a mocking smile appearing on her face. "Serves you right, this is the end for being a dog for the violent Qin!"

"Violent Qin... Miss, which deity are you?" Xiao Yu asked in surprise.

"Hong Qu, who are you talking to? Did Little Fengxian wake up?" A middle-aged female voice came from outside.

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's small eyebrows twisted again, and her lips were tightly pursed, looking very unhappy.

"Who is talking?" Xiao Yu asked.

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan still did not open her mouth.

Following the sound of "thump, thump, thump" footsteps approaching quickly, the door opposite the bed was pushed open from the outside, and then a scent of powder and rouge flooded into the room.

It was a middle-aged woman wearing a lake-green dress.

She was in her thirties or forties, and her once full and round egg-shaped face had become somewhat shriveled due to age.

Her hair was combed until it was oily and smooth, with a phoenix-headed gold hairpin and silver flower earrings; her face was covered with a thin layer of powder, making her look like a middle-aged woman who still retained her charm.

After entering the room, she walked straight to the bed, stared at Xiao Yu, looked her up and down, showed a look of satisfaction on her face, and nodded. "Oh my, Little Fengxian, your complexion is good! It seems you have recovered very well; can you get out of bed and walk a few steps?"

"Little Fengxian, me?" Xiao Yu pointed at her own nose and asked.

The woman in the green dress sat on the edge of the bed, held her small hand, and comforted her in a gentle tone, "I understand, the gap from being a General Guan family young lady to our Red Sleeve Workshop is a little bit big.

But you are originally a Sha Man from the Northern Wilderness.

From the sand dunes where you ate raw meat and slept in the open, to our magnificent Red Sleeve Workshop, hehe, it is a great blessing!"

Xiao Yu rubbed her brow with her free hand and asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"

"A long time. Let me think." The woman used her fingers to calculate and then said, "You have been in the Red Sleeve Workshop for three days, and before coming here, you stayed in the Bao'an Hall for three days and three nights.

Master Song sent you to the Bao'an Hall, and it took another two nights and a day... Look, it's been eight days!"

"Eight days..." Xiao Yu's expression was strange. "I feel like I only slept for one nap."

The woman quickly and concisely recounted what had happened in the past eight days.

Actually, there was nothing much to say; it could be summarized in one sentence: The General Guan family didn't want her anymore, and the Great Shu Imperial Court sent the "criminal woman" to the Teaching Division according to the law.

"Sigh, the gap is really a bit big; I need to slow down," Xiao Yu sighed.

The woman pursed her lips at Dou Sending Dou Gengyan on the side and smiled, "You are nowhere near that yet; Hong Qu is the true fairy who has fallen into the mortal world."

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's lips were tightly pursed, her small eyebrows folded like scissors, and her already sharp eyes looked like they were shooting flying daggers.

"Where did Hong Qu come from?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Hehe, can't you guess? Her father even has some connection with you!"

The woman covered her mouth, giggled, and scanned Xiao Yu and Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's faces with a playful look.

"This 'Mother,' how should I address you?" Xiao Yu looked at the woman and asked.

"Hey, don't call me 'Mother,' just call me 'Auntie Liu'."

"Is Auntie Liu a Human Immortal?" Xiao Yu asked again.

Auntie Liu's smile stiffened on her face. "Why are you talking nonsense as soon as you wake up!"

Xiao Yu glanced at Dou Sending Dou Gengyan and sighed, "Auntie Liu can smile so confidently and ostentatiously in front of me and Hong Qu; even a Human Immortal's strength is a bit insufficient!"

"Little Little Fengxian, what do you mean by that?" Auntie Liu asked, staring at her face.

"It's not what I mean, but doesn't Auntie Liu know what the person who put me and Hong Qu in the same room is thinking? Oh, is Auntie Liu the manager of the Red Sleeve Workshop? If Auntie Liu is just an ordinary 'Auntie,' one could look forward to a fool having a fool's luck.

But looking at Auntie Liu's demeanor, if you are just an ordinary Auntie, then what kind of divine fairy is the manager Auntie?"

"Giggle, giggle..." Auntie Liu grabbed Xiao Yu's hand and laughed until a brilliant hibiscus flower bloomed on her face.

"Little Little Fengxian, you are much more likable than that block of wood Hong Qu. I think, in five years, the number one songstress in Tianmen Town will definitely be you, not her."

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan kept her face tight, only shooting daggers with her eyes, and did not speak.

Auntie Liu looked at Xiao Yu, still smiling, and said, "I haven't explicitly stated her background yet, but you seem to have already guessed it."

"Is it the daughter of 'Jade-Faced Faced Wenqu' Dou Dou Yilin?" Xiao Yu said.

Auntie Liu nodded gently. "She came a few days earlier than you. A few days after the Battle of Feixian Ferry, the number one divine catcher of Great Shu, Yan Yan Feiying, found the traces of her and the old Dou family servant; they wanted to cross the Liushahe to the East Sand Domain.

Unfortunately, to cross the Liushahe, one must come to Tianmen Town.

Once people come to my Great Shu, they will inevitably reveal some clues."

Xiao Yu said, "Before Auntie came over, she kept shouting 'Violent Qin,' looking at me with the eyes of a traitor, and calling me a 'running dog.' Combined with her surname and the 'connection' Auntie mentioned.

As a barbarian girl who just left the sand dunes, I really couldn't think of anyone else but the 'Dou family'."

"By the way, I fought with your father, and he was so weak~~"

Xiao Yu tilted her head and sent a look of disdain and a funny face to Dou Sending Dou Gengyan.

"You barbarian dog, how dare you humiliate my father!"

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan was like a furious little lion, three or four steps away, waving her claws, and "whoosh," she pounced over.

Xiao Yu was a bit surprised; Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's movements were very fierce but completely lacked any structure, obviously never having practiced martial arts... She had thought she looked like a martial artist at first glance.

She raised her right hand, her index and middle fingers together in a sword gesture, a seemingly casual movement, yet she accurately pointed at Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's forehead.

At this time, Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's waving hands hadn't even touched Xiao Yu.

"Ah~~~"

Dou Sending Dou Gengyan was like a toad jumping up, hit in the belly by an arrow in mid-air, flipped over, and fell straight to the ground.

"Bang!" She fell very solidly, and Auntie Liu on the side made a dodging movement, still grimacing and shouting "It hurts so much."

"Don't you feel pain?" Seeing Xiao Yu's expression as usual, Auntie Liu asked suspiciously.

"Should I feel pain?" Xiao Yu was stunned, then shook her arms and nodded. "It is indeed a bit sore and painful, and my movements are much slower and more difficult than before."

"Sigh, as expected of Divine Physician Min." Auntie Liu's suspicion instantly dissipated.

A strange look flashed across Xiao Yu's face.

Why did Song Song Changqing want to destroy her sword bone?

If he really wanted to harm her, why would he bring her to Tianmen Town overnight to find that Divine Physician Min?

The key was that she couldn't think of a reason for him to harm her.

And the General Guan family's strange reaction.

Even if her sword bone was destroyed, they shouldn't have discarded her like a worn-out shoe immediately, unless there was really no room for reconciliation...

Thinking of Song Song Changqing and the General Guan family, Xiao Yu remembered the dark icy ocean she saw while unconscious, and how she flew into the sky as a giant Peng and entered the sea as a giant Kun.

What did Kunpeng represent? Her body seemed to have undergone some obvious changes...

Xiao Yu closed her eyes, discarded distracting thoughts, and after a good while, opened them again and asked, "Auntie, what's the deal with this name? I actually have a name, Xiao Yu."

"Girls who enter our Red Sleeve Workshop must be graded first; the most excellent daughters are named after flowers, so you are 'Little Fengxian Flower,' and she is 'Hong Qu'."

Auntie Liu pointed at Xiao Yu with one hand and at Dou Sending Dou Gengyan, who was climbing up from the ground rubbing her forehead, with the other, and smiled. "Hong Qu might have a reason to complain; 'Sending Dou Gengyan' is truly an elegant and good name.

But you, 'Sha Man Yu,' what are you complaining about!

Even if it's 'General Guan Yu'... Heavens, there is no girl named 'General Guan Yu.'

For this new name 'Little Fengxian,' you should really be grateful, be very grateful, be greatly grateful!"

"Little Fengxian..." Xiao Yu muttered, "Perhaps this is heaven's will!"

"Auntie Liu, please go down quickly, the 'Daddies' are all here~~"

At this moment, a twelve or thirteen-year-old little girl rushed in from the door and shouted crisply at Auntie Liu.

"Oh, Sister Ziying, I know. Go tell Jinlian sister to go down first, I'll be there immediately."

Sister Ziying, who had her hair tied in double buns, looked at Xiao Yu, her big eyes blinking, filled with bright curiosity.

"Okay, I'm going to call Jinlian sister, Auntie Liu, hurry up."

Although curious, Sister Ziying still turned her head and ran out, bouncing and jumping.

Auntie Liu stood up and said to Xiao Yu, "I have to go out and get busy, you rest well."

Xiao Yu asked suspiciously, "Who are the 'Daddies'?"

"They are probably 'Flying Crane in the Clouds' Xu County Magistrate, Xu Xu Dahao, and the group of Jiang Hu heroes he brought. Yesterday, Steward Zhang from Xu Xu Dahao came to greet us and even paid a deposit of 50 taels of silver, specifically naming Jinlian to accompany them."

Xiao Yu's eyes flickered. "Why did Sister Ziying call them 'Daddies' instead of their names?"

Auntie Liu sighed, "This is the fate of the women in our Teaching Division.

The men who enter our door are the 'Daddies' of the 'daughters' who haven't had their faces opened yet, and at night, they will be the 'husbands' of the girls who have hung their signs."

On the side, Dou Sending Dou Gengyan's lips and small face turned pale, her eyes filled with both humiliation and despair, and tears even sparkled at the corners of her eyes.

Xiao Yu closed her eyes and sighed, "Sigh, this is all fate!"

—'Little Fengxian' has arrived, 'Great Destroyer of Daddies' is about to start a massacre!

But don't blame me; this is the fate of the "heroes" who enter the Teaching Division!
