Little Orchid was dumbfounded and turned around to looked at the collapsing mountain peak, "Causing trouble like this, if we went to the demon market and our two souls one body situation was found out… Later on the heavenly realm will know when you caused trouble I was also there, I will be involved…"
"Then that's great." Can hear that Dong Fang Qing Cang really felt rejoice.
Little Orchid pouted. Her mind was unsatisfied, but was not angered because she knew that right now she and Dong Fang Qing Cang are enemies. They only hoped misfortune for the other.
Dong Fang Qing Cang and Little Orchid—each person was calculating as they went down the Kunlun mountain range. Because of this, they did not know that after they left, within the layers of falling snow was a purple butterfly slowly flying elegantly toward the sky. The demon market under Kunlun mountain was crowded and busy. Buyers and sellers of various people change and intermixed [idiom: fish and dragons mixed in together]. Besides various kinds of demons, occasionally would see mortals and immortals wore conical bamboo hats to conceal as they purchased weapons. Little Orchid has heard from what master has said that the demon market was bustling, but she did not knew that the demon market has reached beyond what her master had described. From the moment when they stepped into the demon market, Little Orchid shifted her eyes endlessly. In this place flowers along the roads have teeth, and over there was a house constructed into the shape of the character "#*" . A female demon walking in the front with a revealing chest noticed the gaze of Little Orchid and gave back coquettish eyes…
* Means along the lines of a bow, or something curvy.
The heavenly realm was peaceful and so has not left to the point of this*. This has really caused Little Orchid to truly be astonished.
*Originally there was an idiom [lanterns red, wine green] and it's basically along the lines of a person not having to travel far or having to go to the extent of this to the point of being pointless. In the story context it's basically saying that Little Orchid has never stepped foot outside the heavenly realm to this extent.
Dong Fang Qing Cang was never interested in such bustle and was only searching for the weaponry stalls. However, the gaze of Little Orchid would venture off constantly and caused the left leg of Dong Fang Qing Cang to lose its foot rhythm occasionally. Not for long there was a demon getting close to Dong Fang Qing Cang and introduced, "Hey big brother, need a crutch?"
Dong Fang Qing Cang coldly shifted his eyes and the other bewildered person retreated back gloomily. The owner of the stall brutally hit his head, "It's not easy to spot a crippled. Worry about selling instead?!"
"Owner…It's a disabled person but not unable… Ow, don't hit!"
After strolling around the demon market one round, but could not find the weapon store, Little Orchid did not walk anymore and sat down in the roadside inn, "Let us ask instead rather than groundlessly searching for it ah."
Dong Fang Qing Cang did not speak up. It seemed like an acceptance of Little Orchid's method because he cannot feel fighting energy from the weapons in this demon market.
In the inn there were not a lot of people and when Dong Fang Qing Cang sat down, the inn owner used her snake tail to come over. Looking at the bright red crown on her head, Little Orchid determined that this was a thousand-year old snake demon. The green snake did not speak about the various dishes. Its irises glanced at Dong Fang Qing Cang's face, and then the snake began to smile, "This little brother looked unfamiliar ah. Is this your first time to the demon market?" Finished speaking, she poured a cup of tea for Dong Fang Qing Cang.
Dong Fang Qing Cang was used to not paying attention to anyone. Thus, rather let Little Orchid deal with this. She drank a mouthful of the tea and said, "This is the first time coming here, thus wanted to ask you ma'am whether there are any places in this demon market that sell swords?"
"Little brother wants to buy sword?" The snake demon smiled and said. She analyzed Dong Fang Qing Cang from top to bottom. Her gaze landed on the double-edged sword held on his waist. The bottom of her eyes displayed a bit of surprise, but within a moment, has felt hostile energy piercing through the skin. She discovered that the surrounding atmosphere became heavier and quickly withdrew her gaze while her back sweated. She smiled and said, "This is the first time little brother has come here and thus will not know that the demon market of ours sell messy. But after that person came, regular items and weapons that can kill have been sold separately. If one wanted to purchase a sword one has to cross the grove at the back and go under the frozen lake."
"That person?" Little Orchid blinked and asked, "Who is that person?"
"Outsiders do not know. Only people who sell here annually know who the master of the demon market is. We called him Your Majesty." The fingers of Dong Fang Qing Cang tapped twice on the table and was about to leave as [he] stood up. The inn owner quickly said, "Little brother has not finished the tea." Little Orchid felt that since this inn owner has already provided information, wasting it was not good and thus, she tilted her head and drank empty the cup of tea. She thanked and was pulled away by half of the body. The snake demon saw that Dong Fang Qing Cang has left and hurriedly went upstairs. She pushed the door of the room and shouted, "Daughter, daughter, this time mother has chosen for you an attractive fellow with a strong body."
The female on the bed immediately sat straight up.
"Mother cannot look at his cultivation; he must be someone who has abilities." Within the curtains carried a bit of a husky voice of a female, "If his cultivation powers are high… what if the medicine has no effect?"
"Do not worry, that is Ye Ye Sheng Ge[1] lotus mother has produced recently. Immortals drinking it will not be able to withstand it. The mind would become chaotic and even souls will have to work for it."
[1] Means something like Every Night Music and Song. Doesn't really sound that great in English so I left the name in pinyin.
Within the curtains carried the rustling sounds of a snake tongue sticking out and hissing.
"You have to remember to restrain yourself a bit and not killed off another again. These recent times His Majesty has began to notice mother."
"Daughter knows."
"Mother has mislead him with the grove at the back of the demon market. Smell the Ye Ye Sheng Ge and you can go there."
"Whoosh" one sound and within the curtains there were no more movements.
