This wasn’t Ye Yu showing off, but laying the groundwork for the upcoming conversation.
He quickly retracted his demon power and said softly, “Actually, you don’t need to examine me. My white hair is due to cultivation techniques; it’s just that my parents and little sister don’t understand.”
“So, I hope you can later tell them that you have healed my body’s injuries, and by a fortunate coincidence, I awakened my bloodline power and greatly advanced my realm.”
“As for this white hair, I will make it return to its original color!”
After saying this, Ye Yu focused his mind.
His white hair visibly turned golden.
In just two breaths’ time, it restored to the appearance he had before leaving Yingning Mountain.
Seeing this, Luo Ning stared seriously at Ye Yu for a long time, then took several steps back.
“You, evil demon!”
Hearing this, Ye Yu’s expression turned strange.
He couldn’t help but say, “How can you casually slander demons? I just concealed my cultivation; I’m not trying to deceive them. How am I an evil demon?”
Luo Ning took out a reflection stone from her storage ring and infused it with demon power.
Soon, a battered ghostly image of a horse demon appeared.
He wept bitterly, “Family, family, I am your most beloved Demon King of Niuma Mountain, Ma Xiaole.”
“Recently, a crazy monkey demon has appeared here.”
“He’s been continuously climbing our dozen or so demon mountains, borrowing demon stones from us demon kings.”
“If we don’t give them, he fights; if we do, he still fights.”
“I’m really wronged. Even though I gave him all the demon stones from the mountain, before leaving, he still slapped me a few times.”
“Said my face was too long and displeased him.”
“By heaven’s conscience, how could a horse demon’s face not be long?”
“I suspect this monkey demon is just jealous because I’m too handsome.”
“But all that is past. I recorded this reflection stone to tell all family members: if you see this monkey demon, please give him demon stones if you can.”
“Otherwise, he really goes all out.”
“I heard he killed the demon kings of several demon mountains.”
“Hopefully, such tragedies won’t happen to you.”
He then showed a painting scroll of this monkey demon.
The person in the painting was Ye Yu!
To be honest, the painting was quite realistic, especially with the golden hair and cold gaze, giving an unstoppable aura.
“Not bad, not bad. This kind of painting skill, I approve!”
Ye Yu also recalled this horse demon.
The reason he slapped him before leaving was simply that the guy was effeminate.
“A few slaps to fit the occasion.”
But who expected him to use the reflection stone to expose himself online? That was a bit excessive.
Ye Yu’s expression grew serious.
Just as he was thinking how to explain,
Luo Ning took off the storage ring and placed it on the ground.
In a deep voice, she said, “For you.”
Ye Yu felt a huge headache.
Why on earth was she now trying to sell goods herself?
If he really accepted it, the name “evil demon” would be fully justified.
He quickly waved his hands.
“I don’t want it. Our demons don’t lend demon stones to our own.”
“Actually... fine, I won’t explain. The demon I hit was me.”
“But that guy was a bit excessive. I said it was borrowing stones, not giving them. He even recorded a reflection stone—that’s really uncivilized.”
“Hmm, wait, is he your friend? How do you have his reflection stone? Or do many people have it?”
Luo Ning didn’t answer immediately.
Instead, she took paper and pen from her storage ring and began writing furiously.
This puzzled Ye Yu.
Why write instead of just speaking?
Was she afraid of eavesdropping?
Thinking this, Ye Yu scanned the surroundings with his divine sense, covering all of Yingning Mountain.
He found no unusual demons.
That didn’t make sense; even if she feared eavesdropping, she could have used mind voice transmission. Why go through the trouble?
Before Ye Yu could ponder more, Luo Ning handed him the paper.
He took it and instantly understood everything.
It turned out this horse demon was extremely talkative, producing hundreds of reflection stones and distributing them to nearby demon kings to widely publicize Ye Yu’s misdeeds.
Using his own experience as a typical case, warning them to be cautious.
If things got bad, better to lay low outside than have all their belongings borrowed.
Of course, if strong enough, they could confront Ye Yu directly, though it wasn’t recommended.
He guessed Ye Yu’s power was unfathomable; without transcendent cultivation, it was best not to try.
Reading this, Ye Yu felt utterly drained.
He really hadn’t expected such meddling gossips in the demon world.
Had he known, he would have just eliminated that guy on the spot.
But the horse demon wasn’t even the most ridiculous thing.
The funniest was Luo Ning herself.
She had originally planned to take a demon mountain near Jian Demon City and rule it.
But before she could establish a foothold, she received the reflection stone from Ma Xiaole.
This greatly pressured her.
So she turned and came to the edge at Yingning Mountain, planning to cultivate seriously.
Who knew she would meet Ye Yu here.
She also felt helpless.
After reading all the content on the paper, Ye Yu covered his face with one hand again.
He patiently explained that before, funds were tight, so he borrowed some demon stones from nearby demon kings.
Calling him an evil demon was ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ pure slander.
Now he no longer needed demon stones, so she could take back her storage ring.
But, “Why write instead of just speaking? Isn’t that unnecessary?”
After a long silence, Luo Ning softly said, “I... agree!”
Heh, quite tsundere!
But that didn’t matter; Ye Yu was about to leave soon.
Using paper and pen to speak didn’t matter either.
But just as Ye Yu was about to speak again,
Luo Ning suddenly stepped forward two steps and carefully studied Ye Yu for a long time.
Then suddenly clapped and took out a painting scroll.
On it was Ye Yu’s white-haired form, but just a side profile, face unclear.
Below, five large characters were written:
“Demon King Wanted Notice!”
