Chapter 254: Saw It Clearly
After subduing the Illusory Demon, Lu Sheng threw the talisman into the Space Bracelet.
She had lived twice and had subdued a lot of souls. However, this was the second time she had subdued demons.
As for the first time, it was just now, that Red Dog.
“Lord, could these demons be after us?” Lu Sheng asked.
The first thing that the Red Dog named ‘Red Tiger’ said when it entered was also that her blood was fragrant.
She raised her wrist and sniffed, bu could not smell anything.
Seeing her actions, Chu Sihan could not help but chuckle.
“The primary food in the Demon Realm is blood.”
Lu Sheng was enlightened. “Is it the same as how we can smell different fragrances when we smell food?”
Chu Sihan nodded. “Yes.”
“I see!”
Could it be that she could not smell anything through her skin, but those demons could?
“In that case, they should be here for us.”
Lu Sheng pondered and said, “What can we do to make our blood taste the same as ordinary people’s?”
Chu Sihan took out a blood-colored elixir and handed it to her. “This is a Qi Covering Pill. Swallow it and it can hide the smell of blood on your body.”
Lu Sheng received it and placed it into her mouth without thinking.
Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows and teased, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll poison you?”
“No.”
She shook her head and smiled brightly. “Lord can’t bear to kill me.”
Chu Sihan smiled helplessly but agreed.
He could not bear to kill her, and would definitely not kill her.
Chu Sihan took out another Qi Covering Pill and swallowed it. Then, he pushed open the window and looked at the sky.
The red clouds had dispersed and the Blood Moon had lost its color, returning to its original white glow.
Lu Sheng sighed and said, “Just two demons and they caused such a commotion. If they came in groups, wouldn’t the world be overturned?”
“There should be more than two.”
Chu Sihan said in a low voice, “Demons are cunning by nature. I’m afraid they have already hidden.”
This journey was probably not going to be smooth sailing.
Chu Sihan’s eyes darkened and he stared at the moon silently.

The sun had just risen when everyone resumed their journies.
Shi Yi kept feeling that there was something wrong with the way Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng looked at him.
He was wary at times and speculated at other times. He did not know what he had done either.
“I went to knock on your door in my dream last night?”
After thinking about it, Shi Yi could only think of this possibility.
Lu Sheng nodded. “More or less. However, it wasn’t you.”
Shi Yi frowned. “What do you mean?”
“Nothing.”
Lu Sheng smiled at him and turned her head away again.
Shi Yi held the horse’s reins with one hand and scratched the back of his head with the other. He looked confused.
He looked at Yun Ting in confusion, only to see him shrug his shoulders, hinting that he did not know either.
Lin Jiang looked at him suspiciously and said, “Last night at midnight, didn’t Young Master Shi bring two jars of wine to find Lord Chu?”
Last night, Lin Jiang could not sleep. He wanted to stand in the corridor for a while. When he opened the door, he happened to see Shi Yi entering with two jars of wine.
He wanted to go over and greet them, but seeing that the door was closed, he could only give up.
When Shi Yi heard that, his eyes widened. He looked at him in horror and said, “Young Master Lin, did you make a mistake?”
Lin Jiang shook his head. “I saw it clearly back then. It was you.”
At that time, the candlelight that shone out of Chu Sihan’s door illuminated Shi Yi’s face clearly.
He would not be wrong.
“But I slept after coming back from Brother Chu’s room last night.”
He frowned slightly. “Brother Yun can testify.”
