Can I Do This Too?

That night, Jiang Lin and his companions found an inn to stay at.

Apart from a few countries and towns under the rule of powerful demons that barely maintain order, there are practically no normal inns in the Demon Race World.

However, after Jiang Lin released his sword energy as a warning, the shopkeeper's gaze softened considerably.

At night, Qing Lian was already asleep on the bed, while Jiang Lin and Wu Su Su sat facing each other at the table.

Between them stood Jiu Yi, whose skin had been cleaned by Jiang Lin and was now as white as snow.

The reason Jiang Lin and Wu Su Su were still in the same room late at night was because Jiang Lin wanted Wu Su Su to help check on Jiu Yi's current condition.

In the Dream-Eating Palace, Jiu Yi's soul was completely united after drinking her fill of the Moon Spring Water, but she still hasn't woken up. Jiang Lin examined Jiu Yi's body but found nothing abnormal.

Now, the only option is to ask Wu Su Su, who possesses the bloodline of the Twelve Heavenly Eye Butterfly, for help.

After a long while, Wu Su Su folded up the Twelve Butterfly Wings on her back, slowly opened her eyes, and sweat was already beading on her fair forehead.

"How about it?"

Jiang Lin asked nervously.

"Snort."

Wu Su Su turned her little head away unhappily.

"It's one thing for you, young master, to ask me to help your Su Su, since the White Country Ruler is practically an ally of Su Su. But it has taken a lot of effort from me."

"Won't you at least offer some words of comfort to me, my lord?"

"..."

Seeing Wu Su Su turn her head away Tsundere, Jiang Lin felt somewhat helpless, but he was relieved.

After all, the fact that Su Su was still in the mood to joke and throw a little tantrum at this time meant that Jiu Yi was probably alright.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Jiang Lin stood up, walked to her, and gently wiped the sweat from her head with his Two-Dimensional World -style "fat otaku handkerchief."

"Uh-huh."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Lin would be so Wu Su Su. Wu Susu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she placed her hands on her thighs, clutching the hem of her skirt. Her obedient appearance was a stark contrast to her playful demeanor during the day.

"White Country Ruler is alright," Wu Su Su slightly flushed. "Xiangrong's Moon Spring Water was indeed effective; his divine soul has already been reunited."

Listening to Wu Su Su's words, Jiang Lin pinched his chin with his fingers, frowned, and fell into thought.

Seeing how attentive he was to other women, even though Wu Su Su knew she had no reason to be envious or jealous, she still felt a Xiao Xiao disappointed.

"Young Master, you don't need to think about it anymore. Su Su knows that you are proficient in medicine and pharmacology, but this is no longer within the scope of medicine. The White Country Ruler's body and soul are both fine; he has fallen into a deep sleep."

What the young master needs to do is awaken the White Country Ruler.

How to wake it up?

"Well..." Wu Su Su hesitated, but looking into Jiang Lin's eyes, Wu Su Su sighed softly and decided to speak, "From Su Su understand, to awaken the White Country Ruler, we need to go to a place where the White Country Ruler is compatible with the Great Dao, and then... we also need..."

What else do you need?

"We also need the White Country Ruler's birth date and time, as well as the demon's true name!"

Finally, Wu Su Su looked into Jiang Lin's eyes and told him everything.

For Wu Su Su, finding a blessed land with abundant Spiritual Power and compatible with Bai Jiu Yi's Dao was not difficult. However, the difficult part was finding Bai Jiu Yi's birth date and time and her true name as a demon!

For a demon, their true name is fundamental. Even if the parents give birth to a child and give them a true name, and then have that name engraved in their soul, they still need to erase their memories of their child's true name to prevent others from learning it from them and causing harm to the child.

The birth date and time are also one of the top secrets of the demon race.

In short, even married couples may never know each other's real names and birth dates.

At that time, Bai Jiu Yi was only in a fake marriage with the young master, so why would she tell him her real name?

Therefore, Wu Su Su was afraid that Jiang Lin would despair after she revealed this truth.

Nothing is more terrible than giving someone hope and then despairing them.

"Young master, even if we don't know the White Country Ruler's real name and birth date, it's not a dead end. Perhaps..."

"Maybe I really do know..."

Just as Wu Su Su was about to comfort Jiang Lin, Jiang Lin slowly spoke.

"Young master, do you know?"

Wu Su Su's eyes widened.

"Hmm." Jiang Lin nodded. "Maybe, maybe not."

Back when they faked their marriage, when Jiang Lin went to the White Empire's Imperial Villa to pick up Bai Jiu Yi, the Betrothal Letter with Jiu Yi's real name and date of birth transformed into a wisp of Spiritual Power and entered Jiang Lin 'Jiang Lin mind, even engraving it into his soul. Even if Jiang Lin wanted to forget it, he couldn't.

Jiang Lin didn't pay any attention to it at the time.

He also knew the importance of the demon race's real name and birth date, and felt that Jiu Yi was just going through the motions and would never tell him her real name and birth date, since even biological parents would erase their memories of these two things.

But now that I think about it, what if the Betrothal Letter engraved in my soul is real?

"Su Su, if I knew Jiu Yi's birth date and real name, is there any place where I could awaken her?"

"This..." Wu Su Su lowered her brows and thought seriously, "The White Country Ruler's Spiritual Power is cold, and he is proficient in cultivating the ultimate ice technique, which is his Innate Divine Power. Therefore, the forbidden ancient ruins of the Cold Snow Sect in the Extremely Cold Continent might be the best training ground!"

"The Extremely Cold Continent?" Jiang Lin pondered for a moment. "I understand. Thank you. It seems I owe you more and more favors..."

"Since that's the case, how about you offer yourself to me, young master? My father is getting old, Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom is in dire need of a ruler."

"Stop fooling around." Jiang Lin gently tapped Wu Su Su's forehead, and the girl shrugged slightly, looking quite adorable.

"We should arrive at the Rakshasa Pavilion by tomorrow. You should get some rest. I'll remember all the favors you've done." Holding Jiu Yi, Jiang Lin got up and left to return to his room.

Jiang Lin thought she would grab onto his clothes again, and he would have to exert a lot of effort to walk away.

But what was unusual this time was that she simply stood up, bowed slightly, and obediently let Jiang Lin leave.

Perhaps she was truly exhausted.

Jiang Lin thought to himself, but didn't pay much attention.

Even after the door closed, she remained seated on the wooden stool.

She lay face down on the table, her breasts pressed against it, a strand of hair brushing past her ear and gently curling onto the tabletop.

Should you tell your real name to the person you love?

Wu Su Su lightly dipped her fair, delicate index finger into the clear green tea, aimlessly drawing circles on the table... Her slightly paused eyes seemed lost in thought.

Can I do that too?

The woman asked herself.

But soon, she chuckled softly, shook her head, hugged herself tightly, buried her head in her arms, and made muffled, disappointed sounds.

"How can that be...?"
