Leng Xingzhi heard the answer, his eyes flickered, and a smile appeared, "Let's go, I'll take Junior Sister elsewhere. Not everywhere here is darkness."
Flying on a magical artifact for a day, the sky slowly brightened, and they soon arrived at a city.
"Is this also the Demon Realm?"
Chu Lingwei stood up, amazed by the beautiful scenery below. It looked very much like a sect's market.
"Not all demon cultivators like black."
The two arrived at the city gate, paid two demon coins, and entered the city openly.
Everything here had a dark tone, but the demon cultivators walking around wore very vibrant clothes. Apart from the demonic energy they exuded, which was different from that of ordinary cultivators, one could hardly tell they were demon cultivators.
Leng Xingzhi led Chu Lingwei to a guest house. As they entered the lobby, a person who looked like the innkeeper quickly stepped forward upon seeing Leng Xingzhi.
"Young Master, you've arrived."
Hearing this title, Chu Lingwei's eyes widened. Don't tell her this was their Leng family's inn.
"Take us to rest."
"Yes, Young Master. This lady, please follow me." The innkeeper walked respectfully in front, leading them directly to the backyard.
"Senior Brother, is this your Leng family's place?"
After the innkeeper left, Chu Lingwei couldn't help but ask. If it were true, the Leng family was indeed much more formidable than the Meng family.
"Yes, to stand invincible, one must have their own influence everywhere." Leng Xingzhi led Chu Lingwei to her room, "You will stay here tonight."
Chu Lingwei felt a bit disappointed. She had thought they would explore the Demon Realm properly, but she hadn't expected Leng Xingzhi to have a home here. This feeling was like being doused with a basin of cold water.
"Senior Brother is right."
"Hurry up and rest. There's a barrier here, so you can cultivate as you wish." Leng Xingzhi stood at the door, waiting for Chu Lingwei to enter the room.
"Okay."
As Chu Lingwei entered the room, she felt the barrier fluctuations around her, which quickly disappeared.
"Weiwei, you've really come to the Demon Realm?" Huanmao jumped out of the space, looking around with disappointment. "This place isn't much different from Xuantian Continent."
"Of course, it's the same, because this is the Leng family inn." Chu Lingwei sat on the bed. Streams of spiritual energy suddenly overflowed. This bed had a spirit gathering formation, specifically for cultivators to practice.
"Really?" Huanmao, hearing Chu Lingwei's explanation, jumped onto her. "Senior Brother is amazing, to be able to open an inn even in the Demon Realm."
Chu Lingwei nodded in agreement. She supposed that no other family on Xuantian Continent could open an inn business in the Demon Realm.
She herself was quite surprised by this news for a while.
"Weiwei, do you think Senior Brother has also opened inns in the Monster Realm and the Ghost Path?" Huanmao tilted its little head, its eyes lighting up. "If that's the case, can we walk sideways wherever we go?"
"The most taboo thing in cultivation is relying on others." Chu Lingwei gently patted Huanmao's head. "Even if Senior Brother is very powerful, we still have to rely on ourselves for our cultivation."
"I mean, we can go and see other places."
Huanmao's voice was soft. He thought to himself that he must follow Senior Brother closely, and perhaps in the future, he could go to the monster race. That was the place he most wanted to visit.
"Maomao, you said that Senior Brother can open inns even in the Demon Realm, so he should know everything, right?"
Chu Lingwei stood up and walked to the window. The sunlight outside was bright, and there was no indication that this place was different from Xuantian Continent.
"Of course, doesn't Senior Brother know everything?" Huanmao said matter-of-factly.
"Perhaps, he really doesn't know everything."
Chu Lingwei's gaze darkened. Was the thing Senior Brother didn't want to tell her something she shouldn't know, or something he didn't want her to know?
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Please come in."
Leng Xingzhi walked in with spirit dishes, placed them on the table, and said, "Junior Sister, let's eat."
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Chu Lingwei sat down at the table, looking at the spread of spirit dishes, all of which were top-notch. "These people are stationed here, so they can't eat demon food every day. These are not comparable to Xuantian Continent. Junior Sister, please eat whatever you like for now."
"Senior Brother, these are already very good." Chu Lingwei divided some for Huanmao and began to eat.
"Junior Sister, you can take Maomao out to have a look later. Brother has some matters to attend to and will accompany you later."
"Can I go out?"
A flicker of joy flashed in Chu Lingwei's eyes.
"Of course, when has Senior Brother ever restricted your movements?" Leng Xingzhi said with a laugh, then changed the subject, "However, you cannot leave this city, otherwise, I won't be able to reach you immediately."
"Senior Brother, don't worry, I won't leave here."
Chu Lingwei nodded repeatedly. As long as she could leave this inn, it was fine.
"Let Shuiyi accompany you."
Shuiyi was a merman that Leng Xingzhi had bought for himself when he was in Song City. After the incident at the auction, she had been taken into Chu Lingwei's ring.
"Have her take this."
Leng Xingzhi handed over a black pill. "After taking this pill, no one will discover her identity, and she can protect you."
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
After eating, Chu Lingwei, with Huanmao and Shuiyi, left the inn. The innkeeper had only seen them into the inn and did not send anyone to follow them.
"Master, we are very dangerous here." Shuiyi did not expect to appear in the Demon Realm again. "There is no order here, and people can kill casually."
"It's okay, we're just looking around outside, nothing will happen."
Chu Lingwei was dressed in black, her appearance altered, and she exuded demonic energy, appearing like a low-level demon cultivator.
Hearing Chu Lingwei say this, Shuiyi obediently retreated behind her.
"Weiwei, let's go buy some food." Huanmao, now a demon cat, flew ahead, looking at the surrounding stalls with curiosity. "For a divine beast like me, I've never been to the Demon Realm either."
"As long as you like it, then buy it." Senior Brother had given her plenty of demon coins before he left.
"Miss, please wait."
Chu Lingwei walked behind Huanmao, looking at the various demonic creatures displayed on the small stalls. Chu Lingwei had seen these before in the demon territory. Everything was largely the same.
"Stop."
Chu Lingwei heard someone calling her, turned her head, and saw a female demon cultivator. As she was about to step forward, she was stopped by Shuiyi.
"I'm sorry, Miss." The female demon cultivator kept staring at Chu Lingwei's face with anxiety. "Miss, may I ask your name?"
"Why should I tell you my name?" Chu Lingwei retorted. "Shouldn't you introduce yourself first?"
