    Chapter 27: Chapter 27: You’re Always Teasing Me Today!

    To handle some matters?

    Yun Xia belatedly realized that His Esteemed Lord was going to Holy City with him. He hadn’t considered this when the Demon Lord previously offered a gift.

    His throat dry, he swallowed hard, his heart pounding.

    “What matters? Does it, does it require us to pretend to be a couple?”

    The Demon Lord only said, “You’ll know tomorrow.”

    Yun Xia could only reply with an “Oh.”

    Seeing him silent, the Demon Lord sat up on the large bed, one long leg bent, glanced at Yun Xia, and slowly said, his voice carrying a mysterious allure, “Still standing there? What are you waiting for?”

    Yun Xia was immediately stunned: “Ah? What, what am I supposed to do?”

    His gaze involuntarily fell on the bed so large that he could roll around on it, and on the beauty upon it, relaxed and looking at him, seemingly waiting for him.

    Uh, a solitary man and woman, a large bed, and a beautiful person, inviting him… to do what?

    He he he, he has no resistance to beauty! Esteemed Lord, please don’t seduce him.

    “Um, it’s still early, and it’s not yet my shift. Esteemed Lord, I’ll go out first, please rest well.”

    Saying that, he turned to leave.

    Unexpectedly, before he could take two steps, the person behind him leisurely said, “Even if this Demon Lord orders you to stay, you would still leave?”

    Yun Xia: “…”

    His ears tingled, and his cheeks flushed.

    My Esteemed Lord, can you please not speak so ambiguously? Why does it sound like an emperor speaking to his concubine…Bah bah bah bah, what concubine, there are no concubines.

    But he could only turn back, lowering his head so as not to look at the person on the bed: “It’s not that I dare to leave if you order me to stay, it’s just that you’re about to rest, so I shouldn’t stay here and disturb you.”

    “This Demon Lord is not resting.”

    Yun Xia blinked. Not resting… not going to sleep, then what is he going to do?

    “Come up here.”

    Yun Xia: “!!!” Didn’t he say he wasn’t resting! Then what is he doing on the Demon Lord’s bed?

    Yun Xia’s incredibly nimble mind immediately churned out countless crude thoughts, his face burning as he waved his hands repeatedly: “No, no, no, you sleep, I’ll just guard you from the side.”

    “This Demon Lord never sleeps.”

    Yun Xia choked, his round eyes staring at him.

    The Demon Lord looked at his expression, and couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows and smile faintly. His extremely striking and handsome features, in the dim light of the bedchamber, were like a high-end painting.

    “Since we’re going to act as lovers, some things naturally need to be understood and familiarized with beforehand, otherwise, how would it be if we were exposed, you tell me—right?”

    He drew out the sound, tilting his head slightly, and smooth long hair slid from his shoulder, hanging in front of his chest, shaking with ambiguous arcs.

    Yun Xia was so bewitched by his appearance that he wanted to say yes.

    But his remaining rationality told him, yes to what? What understanding and familiarization must be done in bed? He hasn’t eaten pork, but hasn’t he seen pigs run?

    That’s right, he’s a modern person, has he seen few TV dramas, novels, and movies? Do lovers even need to learn how to be lovers?

    Surely that is better than the Demon Lord who only knows how to work and doesn’t like humans.

    Thinking of this, he immediately perked up, straightened his back, and said: “Esteemed Lord, don’t worry, I understand very well, there’s no need to understand.”

    Yun Xia nodded, his ears red, feeling relieved but also a bit strangely lost and expectant.

    He didn’t know what he was feeling lost about, or what he was expecting.

    “Little Yun Xia still likes this Demon Lord, so pretending will indeed be more natural than with someone without feelings.”

    What?!

    Yun Xia’s cheeks, which had just cooled down a bit, started to heat up again with those words, clutching his clothes with some helplessness and panic: “Ah, I, I actually, uh, I actually…”

    His eyes, like scattered black gems, darted around, his usually nimble tongue tied in knots.

    The Demon Lord’s eyes deepened, and he said in a hoarse voice, “Come here.”

    Yun Xia immediately shut his mouth, hesitating in place.

    The Demon Lord lost his patience, flicked his finger, and Yun Xia flew off the ground, crying “Ah!” and falling onto the Demon Lord.

    The Demon Lord effortlessly supported him, his fingers lifting his chin, his narrow eyes half-open, looking down at him: “Hmm? Don’t like me anymore?”

    Yun Xia stared blankly at him, and opened his mouth: “I still like you…”

    The Demon Lord stared at him for a long time, curled the corners of his lips, his red eyes sparkling: “Very good.”

    Yun Xia fled in disarray.

    But he only ran away a little bit, getting off the Esteemed Lord and supporting himself weakly at the side.

    He… couldn’t resist…

    He couldn’t figure it out. Doesn’t the Esteemed Lord dislike people? How is he so good at this…?

    Could it be innate?

    Yun Xia pondered for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that the Demon Lord hadn’t said anything all along.

    He turned his head to look, and saw the Demon Lord sitting there with his eyes closed, motionless, like a frozen beautiful statue.

    Yun Xia couldn’t help but say, “Esteemed Lord, are you… what are we going to…”

    The Demon Lord closed his eyes, as if everything before was just out of interest, and now that he was done playing, he returned to his original state: “Go down the mountain tomorrow, tonight you just stay here and cultivate well, you don’t need to go to the Myriad Demon Hall.”

    So, the reason he told him to stay was to let him cultivate here. Why did he say those kinds of things then?

    Is he addicted to teasing him?

    Yun Xia secretly slandered, pursed his lips, but could only obediently reply, and followed suit by sitting down cross-legged.

    He had a new understanding of the Demon Lord’s black belly.

    Inside the huge bedchamber, there were only the two of them. The layers of curtains isolated this place into a relatively closed space. This was the first time Yun Xia had been alone with the Demon Lord here. The previous two times, he had woken up here alone.

    A bit uneasy.

    He was also alone with the Demon Lord in the study, but he didn’t feel that way then. Was it because there was a big bed here today?

    He secretly moved his body, wanting to get off the bed and cultivate in a more distant place.

    But before he could move far, he inadvertently looked up and saw the Demon Lord looking at him.

    Yun Xia immediately sat up straight like a middle school student who had been caught daydreaming in class, and gave the Demon Lord an awkward smile.

    The Demon Lord scanned him up and down: “Do you want to cultivate in this Demon Lord’s arms?”

    Yun Xia said very seriously, “…… What’s wrong with you, Esteemed Lord? Were you possessed by someone? Have you encountered something recently, and suffered some kind of stimulation?”

    Faced with such a question, the Demon Lord was not angry. He propped his forehead with one hand and said: “Why do you say that?”

    Yun Xia complained aggrievedly: “You’re always teasing me today! I’m just a little demon servant, with shallow knowledge, and unable to resist temptation!”

    These words strangely pleased the Demon Lord, and the Demon Lord chuckled lowly: “Since that’s the case, then you sit next to this Demon Lord, get closer, and prepare for tomorrow.”

    This…

    Yun Xia was hoist by his own petard, not daring to disobey him, and moved his butt to sit next to the Demon Lord.

    The Demon Lord’s long hair was loosely scattered, as smooth and bright as silk.

    Yun Xia looked at it several times, but still didn’t dare to directly touch it.

    Wait until tomorrow! His health bar is almost exhausted by the Demon Lord. If he is teased once or twice more, he might directly get a nosebleed.

    This time, Yun Xia closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and entered a state of cultivation.

    The Demon Lord’s gaze swept over a bit of tassel that fell from his arms, his eyes meaningful.

    The time of cultivation always passed quickly, and the sky gradually darkened.

    Two figures sat on the bed, one tall and one short, which was unexpectedly harmonious.

    Yun Xia was immersed in cultivation, not knowing how long had passed. Suddenly, his body moved, and he withdrew from the state.

    When he opened his eyes, it was dark all around.

    Yun Xia couldn’t help but hold his breath, and quietly looked to the side.

    He saw the Demon Lord sitting quietly, his eyes slightly closed, his breathing steady.

    His eyelashes did not tremble at all, as if he had fallen asleep.

    Yun Xia suddenly remembered that the Esteemed Lord had said that he never slept. Could it be true?

    Can a person really endure not sleeping for a long time?

    Yun Xia could only persevere in cultivating for half a day, and then he would withdraw from the state.

    There was no sound in the bedchamber, not even the curtains moved. Yun Xia slowly leaned over, approaching the Demon Lord.

    The Esteemed Lord’s eyelashes are so long, long and dense. What does a man need such long eyelashes for?

    Hmm, his skin is so good too… This nose is absolutely amazing, perfect! Beautiful!

    Yun Xia held his breath, tilting his head and craning his neck to ponder the other person’s features, secretly pleased.

    Hehe, starting tomorrow, the Demon Lord will be my boyfriend! Although it’s just pretending, there will always be a chance to get a feel, right?

    And it’s openly and legitimately getting a feel, I wonder if I can hold hands.

    Hisss, wait, how did I so naturally accept intimate contact with the Esteemed Lord?

    I used to… seem to be a straight man…

    Yun Xia was a little dazed. When exactly did he become bent?

    Without thinking for long, he decisively skipped this question, because it was meaningless. To like is to like.

    At this time, he was able to accept the fact that he liked the Demon Lord. Before, he had been thinking of keeping a distance from the Demon Lord, letting himself slowly cool down, but it had little effect.

    Or rather, he hadn’t done that at all.

    Now, he completely understood. To like is to like. He should enjoy this life experience, even if it’s destined to have no results.

    He can indulge himself in liking him like he’s chasing an idol, as long as he’s consciously aware deep down that this liking will always fade one day, that’s enough.

    He’s not the kind of person who can’t live without love. There are too many things in this world worth pursuing.

    Such as cultivating immortality, such as the Three Realms.

    And because of this nature, Yun Xia has been able to maintain purity and optimism.

    That’s why his Divine Consciousness is so clear and pure.

    Moreover, what made Yun Xia even happier was that as a secret admirer… no, an openly admirer, he also had the opportunity to be a couple with the Esteemed Lord for a few days, to be the Esteemed Lord’s boyfriend for a few days. This arrangement was too considerate and precious, he must have a good Netherflower Festival.

    Yun Xia supported his chin with his hands, smiling contentedly while thinking.

    He didn’t dare to laugh too much, otherwise it wouldn’t be good to wake up the Esteemed Lord.

    He carefully stretched his legs and adjusted to a comfortable position, and started cultivating again, having nothing else to do.

    It’s just that this time he didn’t cultivate so attentively, and he thought about all sorts of things in his head.

    Perhaps because he was on the bed, and his butt was soft underneath, plus these past few days he had been running to the Hunying Pavilion to chat with the guards to familiarize himself, and going to the Myriad Demon Hall to work the night shift, he had very little time to rest.

    Therefore, in the well-lit bedchamber, Yun Xia’s drowsiness increased, and his body swayed from left to right.

    Finally, his head tilted and rested on the Demon Lord’s body, and he fell asleep.

    The Demon Lord slowly opened his eyes, turning his head to look at him.

    Looking at the entire Demon Realm, or even the Three Realms, only Yun Xia dared to fall asleep next to him.

    He laid the person down flat, and he also laid down sideways, propping his head with one hand, and said softly: “I’ll let you off for now, the matter of the jade pendant, I’ll settle accounts with you later.”

    Yun Xia was ignorant and unaware, not knowing that a big problem was waiting for him in the future.

    The next day, he woke up naturally, under him was extremely comfortable bedding, and… a gentle body.

    On him was a… warm arm.

    ?

    Before Yun Xia even opened his eyes, his memory instantly returned, and he woke up more than ever.

    His eyelids trembled, as he prayed and opened his eyes.

    The Demon Lord was lying on his side, facing him, an arm being hugged by him, and his head was resting on the other’s chest, and one of his legs was sprawled across the Demon Lord’s body.

    It was imaginable how unrestrained he was last night, because the Esteemed Lord’s clothes were all crumpled by him.

    “…”

    Yun Xia thought with bitter amusement: I slept with the Esteemed Lord last night! The Esteemed Lord didn’t beat me to death, nor did he throw me off the bed. Today is another beautiful day!
