Jiang Yuechu listened for quite a while without ever turning around.
Only after Demon Emperor Juechen had finally finished his impassioned speech did she calmly toss out a remark.
"You handle it pretty well. Consider it raising one more pet."
"P-Pet...?"
Demon Emperor Juechen's whole body shook.
At those words,
an irrepressible surge of excitement rose throughout his body.
A pet!
The Demon Emperor's pet!
Didn't that practically make him... the most trusted of the Demon Emperor's confidants?
Demon Emperor Juechen immediately straightened his back, raised his antlers toward Gao, and even the wrinkles on his face seemed to smooth out somewhat.
Watching the deer demon's foolish, flattered expression, Wang Ziyu suddenly felt a headache coming on.
This idiot.
He still thought Jiang Yuechu was the Demon Emperor.
Once they reached the Great Tang and he learned that his supreme Gao Demon Emperor was actually a human princess,
who knew what a splendid expression he would make.
Wang Ziyu withdrew his gaze, too lazy to say more.
But there was one thing.
He had indeed noticed it.
This girl never took the initiative to acknowledge others, and her face always wore that aloof expression that kept strangers at arm's length. Yet inwardly, she actually quite enjoyed this sort of flattery...
Naturally.
An eighteen-year-old girl.
No matter how extraordinary she was, she had only lived for a little over a decade.
With someone shouting in her ear every day about divine might shaking the world and glory lasting through the ages,
she might find it noisy on the surface, but her tail had probably already curled up into the sky.
The flying vessel cleaved through the clouds, heading east all the way.
The peaks of the You Mountain Grand Vein gradually sank lower behind them.
Spirit Mountain.
Lightless Cave.
