Chapter 45

Little Orchid felt that ever since she has gotten this xi rang body, she was like a bull's-eye board. Whenever she went there would be someone who would point an arrow and waits for her to neglect, piercing her immediately to death.

Little Orchid quietly inched toward Dong Fang Qing Cang's back and lowered head to look at the ground, not glancing once at the owner of the demon market.

The scabbard of the Shuo Feng sword that used snake scales was created. The blacksmith's of the demon market workmanship was quite good. Each layer of snakeskin was polished to extreme glossiness.

But the cultivation of the one thousand year old snake demon was too low and was not suppressing to the frozen energy of Shuo Feng sword. In the gaps of the snakeskin layers were still the frozen energy that diffuse out, causing the outside of the scabbard to form ice crystals.

Dong Fang Qing Cang pulled out the sword from the scabbard and assessed it for a bit. After he returned the sword to the scabbard, the owner of the demon market said, "In this entire world, there is no object that has frozen energy like Shuo Feng sword. Demon king has thought much." Finished speaking, he [owner] pushed the wheelchair toward the outside of the courtyard, "I will lead you two out."

Little Orchid hid behind Dong Fang Qing Cang and secretly assessed the owner of the demon market. She discovered that he did not avoid her gaze. When passing by Dong Fang Qing Cang would lift head to peer at her. Immediately, the five facial features of his softened and smiled gently with her.

The smile was a gentle as the blooming spring flowers outside.

Little Orchid was slightly dazed.

The owner of the demon market pushed the wheelchair outside the courtyard and went a fair distance on a small path and then stopped on the side, "I want to gaze at the flowers here for a bit more. The two of you can follow this path and go straight to return to Crystal City under the bottom of the lake.

Dong Fang Qing Cang heard such and slightly furrowed brows.

The owner of the demon market lifted head to look at him, "Demon king want to stay here and gaze at the flowers with me?"

"Ben zuo is not that idle."

"If so, then I will not force." The owner of the demon market turned around. Within a snap of the fingers, the purple butterflies produced a soft light and immediately flew across the sky like spring flowers, "It's a pity, has forsaken the sunny, vibrant spring."

Seeing the gaze of owner of demon market not on the two, Dong Fang Qing Cang did not linger and steps followed the small path.

After a distance, Little Orchid pulled his sleeve and said in a lowered voice, "The owner of the demon market feels quite peculiar. Does he have malicious intentions ah?"

Dong Fang Qing Cang snorted coldly, "Soldiers come and resistance is used. IS not afraid of insignificant ones."

During the walk on the small path, Little Orchid could not restrained and turned around to look. She saw on the carpet of spring grass, the owner of the demon market has lifted head upward to let the purple butterflies between his brows.

This far apart, following Little Orchid's reasoning, cannot clearly see his face, but strangely the face of the owner of the demon market seemed to become evident in her mind. She can clearly feel the layer of lashes shaking and the gentle, slow breathing of his nose…

Little Orchid has blankly realized that on the face of the owner of the demon market possess an extremely alluring beauty like the scenery illusions that he has created and has the strength to mysteriously attract one's mind.

"Big devil." Little Orchid was naturally a little absentminded. This illusory formation was completely different from the formation underneath the bottom of Qian Yin mountain. There, it was completely dark in hostile energy while here was like a wonderful dream, causing others to not want to step out, "It's too gorgeous here, I unexpectedly do not want to leave…"

"After that wait for death, no?"

The words of Dong Fang Qing Cang was like an iron block, beating Little Orchid to wake up from the allure of the birds chirping and the fragrant flowers. After that, she was dragged by Dong Fang Qing Cang outside with the lapel.

The bustling noise of the demon market echoed in the ears and the fragrant flowers and birds chirping completely disappeared. In front of Little Orchid was only the pitch-black door.

Little Orchid suddenly returned to consciousness, "Staying long there…can die?"

"You want to return and try it?"

Little Orchid quickly shook head. Dong Fang Qing Cang did not bother with her and turned around to leave. Little Orchid hurriedly followed after.

The two people went at rapid speed and no one can see that from behind them was a purple butterfly that wanted to follow and travel across the black door, but was only able to reveal a pair of wings and within a blink of an eye, was sucked by a humongous force and disappeared.

The pitch-black door was still dormant like usual and the demon market were still bustling like before.

"You wanted to run?"

The fragrant flowers were still there and butterflies elegantly dance everywhere across the whole sky. Within the palm of the owner of the demon market's hand was a butterfly perching. He gently blew a breath on the butterfly and the butterfly wings flapped intensely and fell to the ground, slowly it produced human sounds and screamed in horrific pain.

Its wings grew big and were gradually changing into a human figure.

A female was exactly like the females the other butterflies transformed into, and has the exact same face like them. The body was naked and lies on the grass. [She] fearfully looked at the owner of the demon market sitting on the wheelchair.

Within the indifferent eyes of the owner of the demon market printed the shadow of the female body and examined carefully for a bit then sighed heavily, "Many days and you still haven't learn to be like so. She will never show such expression like yours." The owner of the demon market dully said, "Collect those tears."

The body of the female shuddered fiercely and she hurriedly used hand to wipe away the tears and lowered head while biting down teeth in which no sound was produced.

The owner of the demon market looked at her and after a while would shake head "Die Yi". When he called, immediately a female in purple clothing appeared by his side, "Yes." The face of this female wearing purple clothing was exactly like the female lying on the ground. Yet, the eyes have several lines of wrinkle and caused her to appear somewhat older than the female on the ground by many parts.

"She does not learn to emulate." The owner of the demon market waved his hand, "Squeeze blood dry like her mother."

"Yes."

Die Yi came forward and grabbed the body of the female who was scared and struggling to escape like a snake on the ground. When about to drag her away, the owner of the demon market suddenly said, "Die Yi, how long have you follow me?"

Die Yi lifted the female with the exact same face that was still floundering and expression was emotionless as she replied, "Has been eight thousand years."

The owner of the demon market looked at her and lips curve to smile, "Cannot blame you have aged." He turned around to look afar while saying with sorrow, "But she will not age. Even if the she was still alive, she will never age. Nonetheless…you aren't her ah."

Die Yi heard such, and hand shook. She squeezed more tightly on the female who was crying out in pain.

The owner of the demon market waved his hand, "Take her away, her crying makes one agitated."

"Yes."

The owner of demon market raised his hand. A butterfly with purple head perched on his finger and he waved his hand. The butterfly immediately transformed into an image of someone who was standing quietly in front of him. He looked at the person in front of him and raised hand to grab that person's hand, "If Demon King can be a bit faster, only a bit faster…then I can see you."

He lifted his head to look at the person in the front, "It's really strange, can clearly see you everyday…." The owner of the demon market peered at the female's face, but seemed to go through her and looked at someone else. After that the gaze slowly turned hazy, "Can clearly see you everyday, but it seemed that I cannot remember your figure more and more…Teacher…"

At this time, Little Orchid returned to the front of the weaponry stall and suddenly took in a cold breath, "Hiss…" She lowered head to look at the bone orchid on the hand and then lifted head to ask Dong Fang Qing Cang, "Big devil, weren't you pierced by bone orchid from before ah? Today it has pierced me all day, it's painful."

Dong Fang Qing Cang indifferently said, "It's merely sensing murderous energy in the weaponry store."

He lifted the flag that was the shop sign and entered the door. Little Orchid caught up, "You took back Shuo Feng sword already. Why are you returning to the weaponry stalls for?"

Dong Fang Qing Cang turned his head to look at her, "Has your master ever taught you to use weapon?"

Little Orchid was dazed and then understood. She could not believe he would ask, "You want to buy a weapon for me?"

Dong Fang Qing Cang furrowed his brows, "Does not want?"

Little Orchid went one round around the various weapons in the store and then eyes landed on Dong Fang Qing Cang's face, "My…my master was a literary official in the Jiu Chong Tian (Nine Heavens) and is someone who reasons. Master did not teach me to raise spear and wield the sword."

Dong Fang Qing Cang appeared to show contempt toward this explanation, "It's no wonder that you're stupid. It turned out to be a flower demon raised by a scholar*."

*The three words in the Chinese text for male and female is read the same. Thus, Dong Fang Qing Cang does not know that Ximing, Little Orchid's master, is a female. It's the same characters that refers to a male in another story featuring a flower demon… ChocolateCosmostranslations

"I am an immortal spirit!" Little Orchid stalled, "In addition, my master is also not a scho…"

The sentence did not get to finish as Dong Fang Qing Cang on the side brought forth a single-edge sword in front of Little Orchid. She subconsciously took it. When he withdrew his hand, the blade "dong" one sound as it fell down to the ground.

Dong Fang Qing Cang looked at her. Little Orchid grew very red, "Heavy…so heavy…"

Thus, Dong Fang Qing Cang switched out the sword with a spear that has a red tassel and placed it in Little Orchid's hand. Little Orchid's two hands held the spear and placed it on the ground. Dong Fang Qing Cang narrowed his eyes as he discovered that when the spear was fits inside his hand, but when given to Little Orchid, the spear was higher than her head by a lot. With her holding the spear, she does not look like someone who is going to fight at close quarters, but rather was like someone who was climbing a pole…

Thus, Dong Fang Qing Cang once again switched out the spear with a double-edged sword for her.

Little Orchid grabbed onto the double-edged sword. This time it was fitting as it was not too big or too small, and was not too long or short. Dong Fang Qing Cang pleased with a nod, "Perform some swordplay for ben zuo to see."

Little Orchid appeared to display a bitter expression.

Little Orchid is a Heaven spirit and Little Orchid is an immortal spirit born from (outside) help. The most that she has done in life was crawl onto the balcony to sunbathe and secondly, watch master write fates. Even the celestial foundation was not self-cultivated. Everything was due to the immortal energy of master and she was produced.

She did not have an opportunity to learn any sort of swordplay ah.

Little Orchid looked around the room. The various blacksmiths did not continue to wrought iron anymore. All were looking at her as if watching a bustling scene.

The people who came to purchase weapon at the demon market were largely males. Even if they were females, would be coarse hands and round waists or it would be those who cause others to feel cold when looked at. They have truly never seen a flower immortal walking by or lie on one's stomach like Little Orchid.

The smiles on each male couldn't avoid being partly wretched.

Little Orchid returned the sword to Dong Fang Qing Cang, "I do not know."

The surroundings immediately arose sighs from the males.

Little Orchid was somewhat embarrassed. Dong Fang Qing Cang heard such sounds and coldly rolled his eyes. After that, he inserted the sword into her hands. Stepping from behind Little Orchid, he grabbed her hand and said, "Ben zuo will teach you."

Finished speaking, he pulled Little Orchid's hand to wield the sword. The sword energy was intense and when it produced "bang" sounds, the roof of the weapon store was overturned.

Little Orchid's stiff face peered at the room that suddenly turned bright.

The facial expression of the males who enjoy watching a bustling scene in the room was stiff.

Dong Fang Qing Cang tossed the used sword that was broken in his hand and coldly said, "Product is low quality. Take out the highest quality item for ben zuo."

Immediately no one dared to enjoy watching the scene and all hurriedly hid the swords that one has finished forging.
