Time returned to the present.
Jiang You looked around, confirming that she was in an ordinary bedroom.
Having lived for tens of thousands of years, she had naturally mingled among humans before.
However, Jiang You had only ever blended into small villages and towns.
This was the first time she had infiltrated a massive city like Chang'an City.
After all, in small towns, Jiang You could wipe out dozens of them with a single display of her divine powers.
Thus, there was no sense of intimidation.
But in a city like this, she could truly make an impression!
Though she had no idea why there was a spiritual mountain within Chang'an City.
"Anyway, let's sneak a peek at what that human who bought me is up to~"
Jiang You opened the door, sniffed the air, and followed Ye Wangchuan's scent.
Soon.
Jiang You arrived at Fang Que's room.
"Hehe~ Hiding in here, are you? What are you doing? Let me take a look~"
Hearing some strange noises coming from inside the room, Jiang You found a window.
She effortlessly jumped two meters high, clinging to the window to sneak a peek inside.
"..."
After seeing what was happening inside, Jiang You silently retreated.
Recalling Fang Que's appearance in the room, Jiang You's emotions began to churn.
Oh no!
She seemed to understand why that man named Ye Wangchuan had bought her!
What a perverted man!
No, this...
Jiang You looked down at her transformed figure.
It wasn't much different from Fang Que's.
Though she was 1.5cm taller than Fang Que.
Oh no, oh no, is this man going to make a move on me?!
I don’t want a mate!
Jiang You bit her fingernails, thinking for a moment.
Then, being clever, she came up with a solution.
"If I just blast the room with my divine powers, I can kill Ye Wangchuan in one go!"
"After all, this is on the spiritual mountain. If I control the power, I can just flee afterward. Who would know it was me?"
Jiang You felt her plan was flawless.
As long as there weren’t any exceptionally powerful cultivators in the room, her plan wouldn’t fail!
There’s no way that 138cm white-haired loli in the room is some hidden powerhouse, right?
With that thought, Jiang You raised her right hand and began gathering spiritual energy.
She was ready to blast Ye Wangchuan right then and there.
But just as Jiang You was halfway through charging her attack.
Suddenly, the contract seal on her abdomen detected her attempt to attack Ye Wangchuan!
The seal immediately began to glow!
All of Jiang You's spiritual energy was instantly sealed, rendering her unable to summon even a trace of it!
At the same time, a searing heat began to radiate from the contract seal!
"Uwah! What the heck?!"
Jiang You was utterly shocked and panicked.
...
"Huh? Who's outside?"
Ye Wangchuan heard some commotion outside and was puzzled.
He put on his pants and shirt, then went outside to check.
When he arrived, however, he didn’t see anyone.
"Hmm... Grey Eggplant, come here."
Ye Wangchuan called out into the darkness.
From the shadows, a broom transformed into a loli and waddled over to Ye Wangchuan on short legs.
Grey Eggplant had actually been there for a while.
Ye Wangchuan, worried that the newly purchased Jiang You might cause trouble, had deliberately instructed Grey Eggplant to transform into an inanimate object and act as a surveillance tool outside Fang Que's room.
Ye Wangchuan immediately asked Grey Eggplant,
"Did you see anyone come near here just now?"
"Yes."
Grey Eggplant nodded and began to explain in detail.
After listening, Ye Wangchuan pondered for a moment.
According to Grey Eggplant’s account.
Jiang You had first peeked into the room, then began gathering energy in one hand to unleash her divine powers.
But before she could release it, the contract seal had stopped her.
Ye Wangchuan wasn’t too surprised.
The contract seal had been crafted by one of the Ye family elders, so its quality was guaranteed.
Besides, Fang Que had also been in the room at the time.
Since he hadn’t used the Immortal-Binding Rope on Fang Que, even if he had been ambushed, he wouldn’t have been in danger.
Fang Que could easily crush a sixth-level demonic cultivator, so Ye Wangchuan trusted her strength.
"Pretend you didn’t see this and continue monitoring daily. I want to see what this little demon is up to."
After giving Grey Eggplant her instructions, Ye Wangchuan turned and went back into Fang Que's room.
...
...
In Jiang You's room.
"Ugh..."
"Why won’t this thing come off... ugh..."
Jiang You lay on the floor, rolling around in agony.
The contract seal on her abdomen continued to glow, releasing scorching heat from within her body.
The pain was unbearable, and Jiang You could hardly endure it.
She rubbed her abdomen a few times, trying to wipe the seal away.
But clearly, the seal was of a higher level than Jiang You!
Originally, Jiang You had thought the contract seal was just a low-level one.
Something that would give her a little shock if she disobeyed orders.
So she hadn’t cared much and hadn’t resisted.
She had allowed Ye Wangchuan to imprint the seal on her abdomen.
After all, if Jiang You had truly refused, the seal couldn’t have been forced onto her.
But now, she realized...
This seal had been crafted by a master!
Jiang You gasped for breath, clenching her fists.
Gritting her teeth, she cursed,
"Ye Wangchuan! I’m going to kill you, you pervert... ugh!"
Before Jiang You could finish.
The contract seal detected her hatred for Ye Wangchuan and increased the intensity of the punishment, growing even hotter.
Immediately, Jiang You was back to rolling on the floor in agony.
Her legs flailed wildly, her toes splayed out as if cramping.
"I was wrong! I was wrong! I won’t kill Ye Wangchuan! Oh! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Stop burning me!"
"Ughhh!!!"
...
...
The next day arrived.
Ye Wangchuan walked out of Fang Que's room, refreshed and in high spirits.
Fang Que, as usual, needed some time to recover.
Though her divine powers were formidable, her constitution was peculiar.
Physically, she was even more delicate than an ordinary person.
Ye Wangchuan first took Grey Eggplant with him.
Then, he went to Jiang You's room and knocked on the door.
Creak~
As soon as the door opened, Ye Wangchuan felt a wave of heat rush out from inside.
It was as if the room had been heated all night.
Jiang You stood at the door, looking at Ye Wangchuan. Her eyes were filled with exhaustion and fear, her legs trembling, and her face flushed as if she had a fever.
Last night, she had been forced to endure the burning of the contract seal all night.
It wasn’t until morning, when Jiang You truly harbored no ill will toward Ye Wangchuan, that the seal finally calmed down.
Thinking about it, Jiang You felt deeply resentful.
She, a ten-thousand-year-old demon, the Queen of the Yellow Skins, had been tormented to this state by a mere seal.
How humiliating!
For Jiang You, all that nonsense about seeking recognition or ascending to immortality.
None of it mattered anymore!
The most important thing now was... figuring out how to remove this damn contract seal!
