Chapter 811: Who is Udon Noodles

Chapter 811: Who is Udon Noodles

For Liu Shuqin, this was truly a unique experience.

When it came to taming spirit beasts, she was entirely capable.

However, demon beasts were something she had seen in the Demon Abyss Valley before. Those demon beasts were extremely ferocious, having accumulated a lot of resentment over the years. Taming them was bound to be a daunting task.

This was not an easy feat; a challenge she had never encountered before, truly stretching her knowledge to its limits.

Of course, since Lin Nuo entrusted her with this task, it was evident he believed in her. Plus, as a supportive spouse, she had no reason to decline.

Also, she could use this opportunity to learn more about Lin Nuo and the demonic path.

It was certainly better than sitting idly by.

“So, dear husband, does that mean you are in charge of those demon beasts now?”

“No, there are others managing them. I’m not directly in charge, but I can allocate a portion for you. All I need to do is command it.”

Lin Nuo spoke confidently, like a big boss who ruled everything. Though he didn’t directly manage them, he could freely distribute resources without a second thought.

“I see. You really are impressive, husband, doing so much behind the scenes. Sigh, I’ve just entered the demonic path, and I’m unsure if I’m up for it. But I will do my best, at the very least, I won’t let you be disappointed.”

“I have no intention of being disappointed. If you come to enjoy this demonic lifestyle, then you can always follow me.”

Lin Nuo said, looking a bit fatigued, yawning unexpectedly.

Even though a soft and lovely beauty like Liu Shuqin was quite tempting, excessive indulgence could also be exhausting. It was far too much to take in.

The king not attending morning court was not without reason. A noble lady like Liu Shuqin was on par with any concubine. Though she typically seemed gentle, demure, and gracious, when night fell and they shared a bed, her desires were not trivial, often left unfulfilled.

“Alright, it’s getting late. You should get some rest.”

Lin Nuo released his embrace around Liu Shuqin, initially thinking to fall asleep, but Liu Shuqin didn’t seem inclined to let him doze off just yet and gently nudged him.

“Husband, don’t sleep just yet.”

“What? Aren’t you coming over too?”

“While I wish that were the case, I’m worried about your condition tomorrow, so that’s not what I meant.”

“Then all’s well, sleep, sleep.”

Fatigued, Lin Nuo’s eyelids were growing heavy. In the tranquil mountains, wrapped in a warm blanket, the combination of sleepiness just made him more tired the longer he lay down.

“There’s one more question. Answer it, and we’ll sleep.”

“What question?”

“You are Wu Ying Ge, and last time your disciple, Udon Noodles, what’s her background? I’ve never seen such a figure in the Sect of Immortal Dao. I’m curious; please tell me.”

Liu Shuqin suddenly brought this topic up, leaving Lin Nuo stunned.

It was like having his wife lying next to him asking who that woman was.

That felt like a death sentence. No one knew if his wife was hiding a dagger, ready to stab him if pushed.

Liu Shuqin certainly couldn’t be that crazy, right?

Right?

Lin Nuo was momentarily at a loss for words, and Liu Shuqin waved her hand in front of him.

“What’s wrong, husband? Did you marry her?”

This soul-searching inquiry hit straight to the point, diving into the marital aspect.

To say there was a marriage? There wasn’t. Ling Meng’s situation was similar to Liu Shuqin’s. She considered marrying him but was turned down as well.

The revolution was yet to succeed, comrades still needed to strive. Marriage wasn’t on the table.

Admittedly, it was a tricky issue.

After all, the demon beasts were currently under Ling Meng’s control, and if a part was allocated, she would surely have something to say about it.

Objections weren’t a major issue; the crux was that he brought back someone who was like a spouse and seized her resources.

In that case, Ling Meng would likely cry foul. The louder complaints would be about how he had someone outside and was sleeping with another woman.

That was a massive dilemma.

Of course, if Liu Shuqin chose to stay in the demonic path, without seeking purification, he could have her.

As for Ling Meng, she was a true demon woman; if the villain needed a woman, this pure demon girl fit the bill more than anyone.

It seemed his desire for a harem in the previous life might be realized in this life as a villain.

Yes, perhaps.

No one could foresee how this woman’s mind worked. If she got furious and went for blood, he wouldn’t have the capacity to defend himself; dying at the hands of the person next to him while he slept was a terrifying thought.

That path should not be followed.

“Could it be true? Did you actually marry her? Did you deceive me all along?”

Liu Shuqin was becoming more animated in her questioning, leaning closer to Lin Nuo, almost pressing her face against his.

Lin Nuo: “…”

He couldn’t back down. As a villain, he needed the audacity to have a harem, not cower to a demanding wife.

Anyway, Udon Noodles being a demon woman was something she would eventually learn, so there was no need to hide it.

Lin Nuo cleared his throat, adjusted his expression, and replied seriously:

“I did not marry her.”

“Then why the hesitation?”

“I’m merely a bit tired.”

“Fine, just answer my question. I want to know.” Liu Shuqin continued.

“Well, she is affiliated with the Refining Demon Sect, a demon woman. All that nonsense about a new faction ‘Wu Yao Wang’ was just me making things up. When you last encountered her, she was concealing her demon qi, so no one noticed her.”

“I see.”

Liu Shuqin nodded, believing Lin Nuo’s words without doubt.

“Alright, now that you know, sleep.”

Lin Nuo thought he’d navigate through this smoothly, but Liu Shuqin gently tapped him again, continuing her questioning.

“One more thing. What kind of relationship do you have with her?”

“Just master and disciple. I teach her demon power—now sleep, sleep.”

“Is there anything beyond master and disciple? I noticed she admires you; she must have feelings for you. I suspect she wishes to be with you, right?”

“Yes.”

Lin Nuo didn’t avoid it; he laid it all out, the kind of boldness expected from a true villain.

“So how do you feel about her?”

“You know my past life situation, so you should understand. If I need a woman, she fits my requirements. A true demon woman. So if I achieve my goals, I’ll marry her. That’s that. Of course, if you can’t accept it, feel free to leave me. We’ll act as if nothing ever happened, and you can return to your purification. We’ll meet again on the battlefield.”

“I didn’t say I couldn’t accept it. You don’t need to think of me as narrow-minded.”

Liu Shuqin said softly, continuing to lean against Lin Nuo’s chest,

“Actually, for an outstanding gentleman like you, having three or four wives is quite normal. I truly have no qualifications to demand exclusive rights to you. If you have me in your heart, that’s enough; I will support your endeavors. She seems to be quite a decent girl too. She should’ve figured out who you are by now, right?”

“No, she doesn’t know.”

“Ah?”
