I’m Being Held Captive by Demons Chapter 144: Peony is beautiful


Kong Ning silently returned to Tongming Lane.

Today, he doesn't plan to go out.

The outside world is too weird and terrifying for him.

The streets are full of Su Yan, and all the people in the city are Su Yan... Even if he knew that this world was fake, he couldn't bear it.

In the yard, smoke is coming from the stove.

Su Yan, one big and one small, is busy in the kitchen.

When Kong Ning walked into the yard, Su Yan said happily.

"Master! Just wait a second, the noodles will be cooked in no time."

This familiar voice, the familiar way of greeting, made Kong Ning's brows tremble suddenly.

Somewhat creepy.

He looked at the kitchen subconsciously, but fortunately there was no long neck sticking out in the kitchen.

The two figures, one big and one small, were just cooking noodles in the stove.

The older Su Yan noticed that Kong Ning was looking at her, turned her head and said, "I bought Dianyanlang noodles along the way... This is a famous noodle shop in Hejianfu, and the ancestral craftsmanship has sold dried noodles for three generations. Now cook it for your son...do you want to eat spicy food?"

Kong Ning looked at Su Yan who was dressed in white in the kitchen, and was silent for a few seconds before slowly saying: "Don't eat spicy, just add some chopped green onion."

After speaking, Kong Ning walked under the peach blossom tree and sat cross-legged.

The demon power in the body is swimming in the meridians, trying to find the focus of the scorpion venom.

However, the demon force roamed round and round, searching all limbs and bones, but could not find the breath of scorpion poison.

That weird scorpion venom doesn't seem to exist.

Or, it has become one with him.

Kong Ning was slightly speechless.

In other words, at a specific time in the future, perhaps on the first day of every month, everyone he sees will be Su Yan?

Or is there another attack cycle? every few days?

Korning ponders such a thing.

And the noodles cooked for him have been served steaming hot.

Su Yan, dressed in white, stood under the peach blossom tree and said with a smile, "Young Master, face."

She handed over a bowl of plain noodles sprinkled with chopped green onion, soy sauce and salt.

Kong Ning glanced at her, silently took the bowl of noodles, and ate it in small bites.

Not long after, the three of them finished eating the noodles, and Kong Ning went to wash the dishes.

While Su Yan, dressed in white, sat under the eaves and began to teach little Su Yan how to read and write.

After washing the dishes, Kong Ning returned to the yard, sat alone under the peach blossom tree, and practiced silently.

In the yard, it was quiet and quiet, only the voice of Da Suyan teaching Xiao Suyan to read from time to time.

Although it is very close to the downtown, it can be regarded as a quiet place to stay away from the hustle and bustle.

However, it didn't take long for the courtyard door to be knocked and a visitor came.

The silence here has been broken.

Kong Ning, sitting under the peach blossom tree, frowned slightly.

Now all the people he sees and all the breaths he perceives are exactly the same as Su Yan.

I don't even know who is coming from outside.

"Miss Liu, please open the door for me," said Kong Ning, "By the way, tell me who is outside the door."

Kong Ning gave an order, but Su Yan, who was dressed in white, didn't take it seriously, nodded obediently, stood up, and said, "Okay."

After speaking, Su Yan got up and opened the door.

Then said: "Young Master, he is a guest of the Black Lotus Sect. The Lady Sword Attendant beside the Black Lotus Saint is visiting."

Kong Ning frowned and said, "What is the Black Lotus Sect doing here?"

Although I guessed that the Black Lotus Sect would not stop there and would definitely find Liu Ruxue, I didn't expect it to come so soon.

And also directly found Kong Ning's residence.

This makes Kong Ning a little uncomfortable.

He doesn't like the feeling of being stared at, even if the people staring at him are just mortals.

Not to mention that the Black Lotus Sect is swaggering around in the city, and being involved with them has a high probability of entering the sight of the demon, which is not a good thing for Kong Ning.

The black lotus sword attendant outside the door said loudly after hearing Kong Ning's answer.

"Red bean was ordered by the saint to send a gift to Mr. Kong Ning."

"The Holy Maiden was worried that the son didn't see enough last night, so she ordered Hongdou to send paintings for the son to enjoy all night."

The voice that sounded outside the courtyard was still Su Yan's.

But the content of those words surprised Kong Ning.

He got up and walked out, looking at Su Yan wearing a black lotus robe at the door, frowning: "What painting?"

The black lotus sect maid who looked like Su Yan respectfully handed over a framed picture.

After Kong Ning took it, open it directly.

Under the sun, what appeared on the scroll was a stunning red peony.

Kong Ning's pupils suddenly tightened.

This peony picture is exactly the same as the tattoo on the back of the Black Lotus!

Contact the words just now...

Kong Ning looked at Su Yan coldly and asked, "What else did you saintess say?"

Su Yan, who was wearing a black lotus robe, said respectfully, "The Holy Maiden said that if the young master cannot be satisfied just by looking at the picture scroll, he can go to Wangjiang Tower tonight."

"Tonight, the Saintess will hold a banquet in Wangjiang Tower to wait for your son."

"The Holy Maiden also said that if the son likes peonies, he can go there in person and enjoy them to the fullest without having to hide outside the door to peek. Although peonies are beautiful, they also need a gentleman to break the branches, so as to have all kinds of charm."

Liu Ruxue, who was beside her, was slightly surprised by the words of the maid Hongdou, not knowing what happened.

Kong Ning looked at the scroll unfolding in his hand and the lifelike red peony above, silently.

Finally, he nodded and said, "Yes. Go back and tell you saintess, I will go to the appointment tonight."

Su Yan, who was wearing a robe, immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Hongdou has retired."

After speaking, Su Yan, who was wearing a black lotus robe, turned and left.

Kong Ning and Liu Ruxue stood at the door, quietly watching his figure disappear.

Liu Ruxue said in confusion, "Young Master, what is the meaning of this painting from Saint Hei Lian? Why did you agree to see her?"

Kong Ning put away the scroll in his hand, took a deep breath, and said.

"You can't do it if you don't go... That sorceress has already set her sights on me."

Speaking, Kong Ning closed the courtyard door, turned around and said: "I was negligent. I thought that the big demons and demons in the city were all going to the so-called Double Ninth Banquet, so I relaxed my vigilance~IndoMTL.com~ but didn't. Thinking of that, the saintess of the Black Lotus Sect is not only not a mortal, but a demon whose cultivation is far superior to mine."

"It's even higher than I thought...at least above the Primordial Spirit Realm! Otherwise, I won't be able to see through my illusion."

"I am afraid that this kind of cultivation is higher than the demon kings of the big devil caves in the city."

"Maybe on the day I entered the city, when I stood at a high place and looked at her with my eyes, she had already noticed it..."

"Maybe at that time, she was eyeing me."

"And my behavior of visiting the Black Lotus Sect's main altar last night and peeping outside her boudoir is even more self-defeating."

"She will come to the door today and will not give up."

Speaking of this, Kong Ning exhaled a long breath and said, "As soon as I entered the city, I provoke such a big demon... My luck is really good."
