Demon King's Repayment - chapter 185

Lu Junshou was in the house, asking the attendants of the mansion, “What is that person up to?”

“She has always been quiet,” the waiter happily replied, “The little lady ate a bowl of longan porridge, half cage steamed dumplings, half cage gold and silver crisps after she got up early, boasting that our food is good. After the meal, she asked for needlework, twirled two pieces of cloth and immersed her head in sewing.”

Lu Junshou stood up, rummaged through the bookshelf for a long time, and found an ancient book that had been treasured for hundreds of years. He saw a woman in the album sitting in front of the window, piercing the needle skillfully, and nodded, “It’s fine, listen. In the floating world, women like this kind of needlework. As long as she doesn’t run outside, serve her as best as possible.”

Yuan Xiang cut two pieces of brocade in the room, stuffed them with cotton, and sewed them into a girl-like figure.

Seeing that no one was around, she pulled out a piece of her own hair and stuffed it into the doll, gathered her breath and calmly pointed to the empty book charm. She carefully drew a substitute charm on the back of the doll, and breathed a little. The little doll became a woman with exactly the same appearance and clothes as her.

Yuan Xiang was not diligent in practicing serious spells, but she was very interested in these miscellaneous side sects, and she covered a wide range of skills. The current substitute was one of the spells that she found very interesting.

The avatar transformed by that technique looked the same as a real person, but it was sluggish and unable to move around. Looking at it from a distance, one could be deceived as long as they didn’t walk in and take a look, or talk, and push, no one would discover it.

Yuan Xiang walked to the door, poked her head and looked around. Lu Junshou was still very worried about her, and in the entire courtyard outside the door had countless guards to guard her escape.

However, even though these people were guards, they were all used to living lazily. They had never suffered or been exhausted. Of course, they would not stand upright and fully guard like real soldiers.

But a group of two or three from the left, another group of four or five, leaned together to chat.

The two attendants were the closest to the door. Yuan Xiang was particularly impressed. The two men were the ones who said one would lay eggs and the other would get pregnant. It was Lu Junshou who deliberately arranged candidates to approach Yuan Xiang first.

Yuan Xiang smiled at them, “I want to quietly read a book for a while. You are quarreling too much, can you please…” She politely made a please gesture, “Please stay away a little bit.”

“Yes, yes, of course, no problem.”

The two men nodded their heads and backed away for a while, happy because they got to talk with Yuan Xiang

After all, with so many people in the yard staring at this room, she had no chance of running away.

“Look at her movements, it’s so beautiful. She speaks softly.”

“Girls in the floating world are different. They can read books. I don’t even recognize my name.”

“Yes, that is, I hope she chooses me.”

“Why is it you? You don’t know how many generations your dragon bloodline has passed down. It has long been mixed. The men of our water horse tribe are the most considerate to take care of women. Don’t you know?”

“What are you talking about, are you trying to fight?”

The two outside the house quarreled from a distance, and no longer wanted to monitor Yuan Xiang inside the house.

Yuan Xiang quickly helped the stand-in doll to sit by the table. She made it lean back against the window, and squeezed a book in her hand, as if to be concentrating on reading. She quietly stood at the window and stretched out her hand to open the window to let those outside see her back sitting at the table.

Later, she took out a yellow talisman from the purse she carried with her. There was no rune written on this talisman, only a talisman head and tail were drawn, but there were countless trident-shaped small footprints in the middle. It was like a little chicken stepped on it.

Yuan Xiang hid behind the window, twisting the chicken claw talisman, putting it in her hands and praying, “Li Yu, Li Yu, this time it’s all up to you. Let’s succeed from the first try.”
