Seeing Ye Fan leave, Big Yellow looked around sneakily.
Once it was sure he had really left, Big Yellow waved a paw.
“Woof woof!!”
Quick, quick... Brothers, hurry up and get to work...
With that, Big Yellow began stuffing everything in the room into its storage bag.
This sight instantly dumbfounded everyone!
Lu Ming really couldn't hold back and asked, “This is your home! Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to do this?”
“Yeah, Second Senior Brother, it's not very nice to steal from your own home!”
The big yellow dog stopped what it was doing and looked up at Lu Ming and the others.
“Woof woof!!”
What's wrong with taking things from my own home? Would it only be appropriate if I took things from someone else's home?
Lu Ming was taken aback. That actually made some sense.
But still, who would scrape their own home three feet deep to take things?
In just this short moment, Big Yellow had completely cleaned out the room they were staying in.
It was even starting to pry up the floorboards.
“Woof woof!!”
Big Yellow urged them again. Hurry up! I just like putting things from my own home into my storage bag.
Cut the crap and help me out!
Lu Ming and Huang Tianbao exchanged a look, and Lu Ming waved his hand helplessly. Since their second brother liked it, they might as well do it...
With Lu Ming's command, Diao San and his men didn't hold back either.
They immediately went into full looting mode.
They were getting more and more skilled at this kind of work. Even Fu Chen was doing it with ease.
However, as they got to work, they noticed something was off.
“Great Sect Master, we found quite a few image stones. They were hidden pretty well... If we hadn't dug three feet into the ground, we might not have found them...”
Hearing Diao San's report, Lu Ming reached out and took one of the image stones from his hand to examine it.
There was nothing special about it; it was just a standard image stone.
“Eldest Senior Brother, why would the Demon Emperor place these image stones? Is he suspicious of us?” Huang Tianbao couldn't help but ask as he looked at the stone.
“Woof woof!!”
Big Yellow also pointed angrily at the image stone. This guy is too wicked, actually spying on me...
Lu Ming shook his head. “It shouldn't be the Demon Emperor. There's no need for him to do this.”
“If not him, then who? He was the one who had someone arrange our lodging,” Huang Tianbao asked in confusion.
Lu Ming's eyes flickered as the figure of Ye Fan flashed in his mind.
He always felt that dog was strange and seemed to harbor hostility toward him.
“It should be the 98th Prince, the one who arranged our lodging,” Lu Ming guessed.
“We have no grudges with him. Why would he spy on us?”
“Woof woof!”
Big Yellow's eyes darted around. Could he be worried that I'll steal his position as Crown Prince?
“Maybe. Regardless, let's finish packing everything up first!” Lu Ming said. Originally, he had felt a bit embarrassed. Now, that feeling was completely gone.
“By the way, where is Zhu Wuneng? Don't let him see this... He's terrible at lying!”
“Oh! He went to the restroom!” Diao San replied.
“This is a trap formation. Let him stay in there a bit longer!” Lu Ming said as he handed an array disk to Diao San.
After Zhu Wuneng finished using the restroom and came out, he found himself lost.
He wandered around in circles, only to end up right back at the restroom.
“What's going on? Am I not allowed to leave if I don't produce enough volume?” Zhu Wuneng muttered aggrievedly.
“This Imperial City sure has a lot of rules!”
With that, Zhu Wuneng pulled some food out of his storage bag and began stuffing his face. After all, he had just emptied himself, so his stomach was currently bare!
As the food digested, Zhu Wuneng had to make another trip to the restroom.
When he came out this time, he was surprised to find that he could actually leave!
However, the desolate scene before him left him utterly bewildered.
“Holy crap... Where is this?”
Zhu Wuneng couldn't help but cry out. The scene before him was simply too desolate.
Not a single blade of grass or tree remained, and the ground was three feet lower than before...
What was going on?
Did the apocalypse happen just because he went to the toilet?
“Brother Monkey, Brother Dog!”
Zhu Wuneng cried out all the way to the main hall. It had been magnificent just moments ago, but now only an empty shell remained.
“What's wrong, Wuneng?” Lu Ming asked with a face full of confusion.
Seeing Lu Ming sitting on a small stool, Zhu Wuneng grew even more puzzled. “Brother Monkey, what happened here?”
Before Lu Ming could speak, Huang Tianbao patted Zhu Wuneng on the shoulder. “Wuneng, what nonsense are you talking about? Nothing happened here!”
“What's wrong with you?”
Hearing this, Zhu Wuneng said in confusion, “But it wasn't like this just now!”
“Oh! You mean this? The 98th Prince brought some people over to do some remodeling, and it turned out like this!” Lu Ming explained casually.
“What? Remodeled into this?” Zhu Wuneng asked, pointing around speechlessly.
“Yeah! The 98th Prince said this is the minimalist style, so it's like this!”
Zhu Wuneng opened his mouth to say something but then closed it!
Perhaps this was the aesthetic of the rich!
After all, he wasn't even allowed to leave after taking a dump if he didn't produce enough volume.
The life of wealthy demons was not something a country pig like him could comprehend!
Minimalist style it was, then! As long as it didn't leak when it rained, it was fine.
“Brother Monkey, I got tired from taking a dump. I want to rest for a bit!”
Lu Ming was startled. Tired from taking a dump? What a bizarre phrasing!
Lu Ming looked at Zhu Wuneng. Although he couldn't understand it, he supported him. He nodded. “Alright! Go ahead and rest!”
Immediately, Zhu Wuneng found a dirt pit in the main hall and went to sleep.
Zhu Wuneng nodded with satisfaction. Not going to lie, this is actually pretty comfortable!
The demons of the Imperial City really know how to enjoy themselves!!
“Zzz... Snore...”
A moment later, earth-shattering snoring rang out!
Lu Ming and the others exchanged looks. He was asleep already?
...
After the Demon Emperor had Ye Fan arrange for Lu Ming and the others to rest, he directly chased Minister Fox and the others away.
Then, with a flash of his figure, he arrived at the rear palace.
As soon as he entered, he saw the Empress sitting before a table of sumptuous food, lost in thought.
“Xintong! I'm back. Have you been waiting long?”
Hearing his voice, the Empress, dressed in her palace robes, looked up.
Her eyes were gentle, her skin as fair as jade, and her nose delicate and elegant.
“No, you're just in time...” the Empress said softly.
“Xintong, I missed you so much!”
The Demon Emperor stepped forward and took the Empress's hand, acting spoiled.
“I missed you too. By the way, what happened today?”
She had also seen that massive Ancestor phantom from the rear palace.
The Demon Emperor held the Empress's hand and sat down, saying, “Today, a dog arrived who looks exactly like our Ancestor...”
He then recounted the events of the day.
Hearing the Demon Emperor's explanation, the Empress blinked. “Is he really the Little Ancestor?”
The Demon Emperor nodded. “More than likely! He summoned the Ancestor's phantom, and no other dog has ever been able to do that...”
The Empress looked at the Demon Emperor, hesitated, and asked, “Do you think the Ancestor will like me?”
“Of course he will! You're so lovely...”
The Demon Emperor brushed a lock of hair from the Empress's forehead and said.
“How about this? After we eat, I'll take you to meet the Little Ancestor!”
Hearing this, the Empress nodded and began to eat.
