Chapter 860: Black Jade Hairpin

[Demon Realm]

"Even so, are you not reluctant? That elixir is highly beneficial for you. If you achieve spiritual ascension and further increase your soul power, you’ll gain an even greater advantage. Since you love alchemy, strengthening your soul should be your priority," Bu Si Shu suddenly questioned.

"I already have several legendary elixirs to enhance my soul. Besides, drinking Spiritual Water every day nourishes my soul enough. Why would I need that elixir?" She blinked.

"I underestimated you." Bu Si Shu’s lips twitched. How could he forget that this girl’s small world was filled with heaven-defying treasures?

"What is that?" Suddenly, Bu Si Shu became excited upon spotting some strange-looking snacks being sold at a nearby stall. He rushed over and was greeted enthusiastically by the demons.

Bu Si Shu seemed to get along well when it came to food. But the problem was...

"This guy looks rich, but I didn’t expect him to be a poor ghost! How can you eat and not pay? That won’t do! Pay up, or we’ll send you to jail!" The sellers pointed their fingers at him, some even surrounding him, ready to enforce the rules.

"What kind of food are you selling? It tastes so plain, like I’m eating wild grass. And you still dare to ask for my spirit stones? I have treasures, but does your food even deserve them?" Bu Si Shu frowned contemptuously. Having tasted the snacks and fruits in the Ethereal Small World, other foods seemed flavorless in comparison.

"This won’t do! So you’re refusing to pay? Then don’t blame us for being merciless!" The demons immediately grew furious, rolling up their sleeves and preparing for a fight. They didn’t waste words when unnecessary—fists and claws were much more effective in solving problems.

"Who’s afraid of you? Even if you gathered your ancestors, you still wouldn’t be able to beat me!" Bu Si Shu chuckled, floating leisurely in the air, completely unfazed by the wave of curses and red-eyed glares from the demons.

"How dare you insult our ancestors?! You’re asking for trouble!" the demons roared.

"Calm down, everyone, I’ll pay for him. He has been in seclusion for a long time and is unfamiliar with the ways of the world. Everything must feel new to him." Before the situation could escalate, Shenlian Yingyue stepped in and paid for all the food and snacks Bu Si Shu had consumed.

"So he was in seclusion? Next time, don’t let him cause trouble and disrespect our ancestors like that. Consider this a warning!" The demons finally relented, waving their hands to let them go.

"Understood," she replied, surprised by their reasonableness.

Shenlian Yingyue sighed in relief before turning to face the troublemaker, who was now pretending to be innocent. "I say, Great One, can you not act so recklessly? You’re an ancient entity—you should know that if you take something, you must pay for it according to the rules. Do you want the entire Demon Realm to send their demon soldiers after you?"

"Even if their ancestors come, I’ll defeat them. Why do you need to bow to them?" Bu Si Shu shook his head dismissively, utterly fearless.

Shenlian Yingyue held her forehead in exasperation. "What did I just say? You’re powerful, yes, but that’s you, not me. You’re with me now. If you’re going to cause trouble, can you at least consider the powerless me? The world is full of unknown forces, and I have no intention of offending unnecessary ones."

"And another thing—your power and wealth, I suggest you conceal them. Stop showing off, or you’ll attract haters and robbers." She warned him kindly.

"How troublesome," Bu Si Shu rolled his eyes but, in the end, finally listened and stopped making trouble.

"Bu Si Shu, if you want to stir up trouble, do it far away from us. We have important matters to handle and no time to clean up after your mess. I thought you understood how the world works—why are you acting so recklessly? How old are you?" Bing Xue frowned, his angelic face filled with dissatisfaction.

Bu Si Shu’s lips pressed into a straight line. He refused to answer, as if seriously considering their words.
