Chapter 138: The Weird Ancient Residence

A cold wind blew gently over Lanzhuang Gang.

Upon hearing Li Heng's words, the old woman broke into a cold sweat. She felt the threat of the Sun True Fire, her heart pounding with fear, and in her extreme terror, she stammered and could not make a sound.

"This young master, please do not make things difficult for this old woman."

A clear, slightly delicate voice drifted out from the carriage. A snow-white, jade-like hand reached out from within, lifted the curtain, and revealed a beautiful, gentle face.

This was a bride who appeared perfectly normal in every way; she was charming in appearance, dignified in temperament, and dressed in a red wedding gown as she poked her head out to look at Li Heng with an apologetic expression. She truly looked like a young lady from a noble family about to be married, and beneath her delicate face, she was somewhat pitiful to behold.

"My name is Kong Que, and I have come from Ten Thousand Demon Ridge to go to an Ancient Residence, where the master wishes to marry me. So, I ask that you be accommodating, young master, and clear the way; there will surely be a great reward in the future."

Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, an Ancient Residence?

Hearing these two terms, a hint of a smile appeared between Li Heng's brows. All that effort was not in vain, as the goal was found without even looking for it. Who would have thought these two places would have such a connection?

"So that is how it is; I happen to be heading to that Ancient Residence as well."

Li Heng said indifferently.

The old woman, who had been in a state of extreme tension, was delighted to hear this. "So you are a guest of the master? It is truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple; I am a subordinate of that master, sent to welcome the bride."

The old woman wore a fawning smile, her eyes filled with obsequiousness.

Of course, that wisp of Sun True Fire still floated before her, flickering and pulsing, filled with endless vitality, ready to burn this Living Dead creature to ashes at any moment.

"Is that so?" Li Heng began to laugh.

"Since you are a guest of that person, then please travel along with Kong Que; it is on the way, after all." This bride named Kong Que extended an invitation to Li Heng, her eyes full of sincerity, without a trace of falsehood.

"Is that Ancient Residence located by Lanyue Creek?"

Li Heng did not respond to Kong Que's words, but asked instead.

The old woman was stunned upon hearing this, then hurriedly spoke. "My master's Ancient Residence is nearby. Taking advantage of the dense Yin energy, it manifested in the Present World and cut off a river; that must be Lanyue Creek."

She thought to herself, what kind of Sacred Terror is this Living Dead, that he doesn't even know the location of her master's Ancient Residence? And he is actually able to use such a terrifying and righteous flame.

Is he really a Weird?

Thinking of this, she felt a deep, chilling fear and dared not think any further.

"Hmm, I see."

Li Heng nodded, and with a thought, that Sun True Fire suddenly surged, directly enveloping the old woman, instantly burning her to ashes and causing her to drop dead.

Source Power +50.

"As you asked, I am not making things difficult for her, right?"

He smiled, looking at the astonished and silent Kong Que.

"Fine, since that Ancient Residence is at Lanyue Creek, and this place is very close to Lanyue Creek, I will drive the carriage for you." Having said that, he vaulted onto the carriage, taking the place of the old woman.

"Young master, you are truly decisive. But that is fine, the old woman deserved it for participating in the Great Banquet." Kong Que sighed, speaking so delicately, yet she ended up speaking on Li Heng's behalf.

"Enough idle talk, let's go; you still have a wedding to attend."

Li Heng said indifferently, grabbing the reins and ordering the Yin horses to rush toward Lanyue Creek. Once they had completely left this Ghost Domain of Lanzhuang Gang, a touch of Great Sun Divine Intent erupted with a boom...

Halfway there.

As he drove the Yin horses and galloped along.

A pair of jade hands reached out from the carriage, wrapping weakly around Li Heng. Kong Que's graceful figure pressed directly against Li Heng's back, her head resting on his shoulder, her breath as fragrant as orchids.

"Young master, can you do a favor for this concubine..."

A while later.

Li Heng was on the horse, and Kong Que was on the ground, dressed in her wedding robes.

Kong Que:???

"Lady Kong Que, it's not that I want to lecture you, but you are already someone else's bride, why must you seduce me? Do you know that I am as close as a brother to the master of that Ancient Residence!"

Li Heng, while on the horse, criticized Kong Que with a pained and heartbroken expression.

"Do you have no conscience toward my brother?"

As Kong Que listened, her shame and anger turned into numbness and calm, and her mood became violently frantic. Seduce you? In Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, I am known as Princess Kong Que; if I just beckon my hand, I don't know how many people would be willing to submit at my feet. Do I need to seduce you?!

And "as close as a brother" to that person, what a load of crap!

If you were really as close as a brother, how could you not even know where he is? And judging by that golden, terrifying flame you used earlier, you are not some good Weird demon at all!

She roared in her heart, feeling that this was a first.

"Lady Kong Que, you must know shame!"

He continued to shake his head, looking heartbroken.

"Alright, I won't say much more, let's go."

Kong Que was stunned. "Does the young master expect this concubine to walk there?"

Li Heng raised an eyebrow. "What else?"

"Doesn't Lady Kong Que know that walking more is beneficial for physical and mental health? I am doing this for your own good."

Kong Que was numb; she had never seen such a shameless person.

She felt a faint regret in her heart; if she had known, she wouldn't have done that earlier. She had thought this Living Dead was powerful and that, without that terrifying flame, he might have been an asset to help her avoid meeting a tragic end after marrying into the Ancient Residence. Who would have thought he was a lunatic!

The human and the demon remained silent until they reached Lanyue Creek.

Arriving at Lanyue Creek, Li Heng raised an eyebrow.

It seems that massive Ancient Residence really did block the entire river? Looking ahead along the river, he could already see the outline of that massive Ancient Residence. At the same time, because the river had been blocked and broken, the water had spread to both banks, leaving the area muddy.

"Young master, this place is all mud, and the water is deep and dangerous. Could you let this concubine ride the horse? Otherwise, I fear this wedding gown will be stained with mud and soaked through; how could I still look like a bride about to be married?"

Kong Que said softly, looking somewhat disgusted.

"What do you know? My brother loves this style. The dirtier, the better; that is how a wedding should be!" Li Heng waved his hand dismissively.

Upon hearing this, Kong Que's mouth twitched. How could she not understand Li Heng's sarcasm? He was clearly mocking her for being dirty! But she refused to accept this, as she had never let any man touch her even once before.

She liked women!

Daughters are made of water and flesh, men are made of mud and flesh; when I see daughters, I feel refreshed, but when I see men, I feel a foul stench pressing upon me!

Otherwise, how could that Jinpeng have angrily sent her away?

However, she thought about it, and this Living Dead was clearly a pervert. Forget it, forget it, it was better not to get angry with such a pervert. She sighed mournfully in her heart, feeling completely lost about her future life in the Ancient Residence.

"I have calculated the time, the auspicious hour is almost here, let's go quickly."

Li Heng looked at the sky casually and blathered.

The Tongtian River flows through the southwest, and wherever it passes, it extends into many branches, and branches give birth to more branches, forming a dense water network, in which there are countless fish, and many boatmen make a living here.

Lanyue Creek is just a small branch of the Tongtian River, neither too big nor too small; to call it a creek, it is larger than an ordinary creek, and to call it a river, it does not quite qualify, at most it is just that the water quality is clear and can reflect the bright moon.

It is precisely because a woman surnamed Lan once threw herself into the river here to commit suicide.

Therefore, it is called Lanyue Creek.

The most famous thing is the fleshy and delicious carp, named Lanyue Carp. Even if placed in Beijun, it counts as a unique delicacy. And because this kind of Lanyue Carp is too special, the local fishermen even circulate the saying that Lanyue Creek hides a Dragon Gate.

In the middle section of Lanyue Creek, that huge Ancient Residence blocks the river water, causing groups upon groups of Lanyue Carp to be unable to swim back, gathering one after another on both sides of the Ancient Residence, jumping and splashing, stirring up countless waves.

However, they are soon caught by the Weird within the Ancient Residence, then sent to the back kitchen and processed into dishes. Today is the big day for the master of the Ancient Residence, and since the Lanyue Carp is so delicious, it can naturally make it onto this Weird wedding banquet and become plates of delicacies.

In front of the Ancient Residence gate, a group of little Weird are busy running back and forth, hanging lanterns, setting off firecrackers, and decorating everywhere, looking very festive, no different from a normal human wedding banquet. If only the lanterns were not human-skin lanterns, and the firecrackers were not human-flesh firecrackers...

An old zombie looking like a Butler stood in front of the gate looking around, but after a long time, he did not see the target appear in his sight, and could not help but reveal a few traces of doubt.

What is going on?

Why hasn't the team from Ten Thousand Demon Ridge arrived yet? If they don't arrive now, the auspicious hour will be missed when the wedding proceeds later. What is going on with Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, or could it be that they regret it?

According to what he understands.

That bride is the famous Princess Kong Que!

A pair of stunning features, and the trait of being attractive to humans, Weird, and demons alike, made her a femme fatale on Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, even causing that Third Saint Jinpeng to fall deeply in love and pursue her for a long time.

It can be said that one face alone could stir Ten Thousand Demon Ridge into chaos.

Listening to the bits and pieces revealed by her master, the reason why Princess Kong Que is marrying over is that the First Saint and Second Saint of Ten Thousand Demon Ridge could not bear the harassment and took advantage of the Third Saint being away to send her over.

By doing this, turning raw rice into cooked rice, they cut off the femme fatale.

Could it be that this matter was discovered by the Third Saint Jinpeng?

Thinking of this possibility, the expression of this old zombie stiffened, although as a thousand-year-old zombie, his face was already very stiff, making it impossible for people to see any emotional fluctuations within it.

Still have to wait and see.

Ten Thousand Demon Ridge has a partnership with the master, they should not go back on their word.

If there is a wedding banquet, there will naturally be guests.

Before long, many spatial passages rippling like water surfaces appeared outside the Ancient Residence gate, and many demons and Weird of various shapes walked out; these were the guests who came to attend the wedding through the Yin Path.

An ox-headed demon arrived here and couldn't help but pat his chest and laugh loudly. "So this is the Present World, it really has been a long time, back in the day I, Old Ox, was still just an ox."

"How much time is left until the wedding banquet starts? The Present World has quite a few wild humans; I heard they are much chewier than those captive Human-Livestock. I want to go hunting."

"This guest may go ahead."

The old zombie said indifferently, not afraid of trouble at all.

"Good, then I, Old Ox, am off!"

This ox-headed demon turned around very directly and left.

At this moment, Li Heng and that Princess Kong Que were already very close to the Ancient Residence, and could already see the appearance of this Ancient Residence clearly, as well as an ox walking toward them with big strides?
