Chapter 1717: Chapter 1540: Antique Spirits 20

Looking at the crowd gulping down the water balls, Feng Shuangshuang frowned slightly. She had planned to summon water balls big enough for them to drink and also wash up.

However, the water balls she summoned were only the size of a basin, which surprised Feng Shuangshuang a bit. She sensed carefully and found that the water energy in the surrounding air was almost nonexistent.

But Feng Shuangshuang quickly understood, this was the Barrier of the Drought Demon. Wherever the Drought Demon goes, there is a thousand miles of barren land, and water energy is scarce, which is perfectly normal.

Ding Yudong and the others drank until their bellies were round, burping up water, they were satisfied to put down the water balls and began looking for containers to store the remaining water.

Ding Yudong gratefully said to Feng Shuangshuang, "Boss Feng, thank you so much this time. If it weren’t for you, we’d all die of thirst here."

"It’s nothing, just a small effort."

Feng Shuangshuang waved her hand and gathered a large water ball again. This time, the water balls were big enough to fill all the containers and also have a wash.

Feng Shuangshuang said to Ding Yudong, "You fill up the water and wash up, wait for me here, I’m going to meet this Drought Demon."

Ding Yudong nodded without any objection. He didn’t overestimate himself and ask to go along; they were played around almost to death without even meeting the opponent, meeting them would mean they are just entering the lion’s den.

Feng Shuangshuang was pleased with Ding Yudong’s sense of propriety, turned and left the tent, sensing the obvious, beacon-like presence of the Drought Demon who hadn’t hidden themselves, she hurried over.

This Drought Demon not only did not cover up his presence, but the place where he was located was extremely ostentatious. In the middle of the desert, there appeared a building akin to the Emperor’s palace, very conspicuous.

Feng Shuangshuang walked up to the palace’s entrance, and the palace doors swung open instantly, a welcoming gesture, Feng Shuangshuang stepped right in.

Just as Feng Shuangshuang entered, two pale-faced little boys emerged, bowing on either side of Feng Shuangshuang, saying, "The master awaits you, please follow us."

These two boys were clearly not alive; they were zombies living for at least five hundred years, unusually lacking any blood debt, indicating they hadn’t harmed anyone.

The two boys sensed the strong energy from Feng Shuangshuang and were somewhat fearful but didn’t show it, although their bodies were tension-ridden.

Feng Shuangshuang didn’t intend to trouble the two boys, she followed them inside. The palace was large, even larger than a real Imperial Palace.

What’s rare is that the inside was full of blooming flowers and green trees, and lakes surrounded every part of the palace, flowers everywhere.

Feng Shuangshuang was led to a pavilion in the middle of a lake by the two boys, where a young man in white sat, Feng Shuangshuang immediately recognized him as the arrogant Drought Demon.

The two boys left after bringing Feng Shuangshuang here, but she didn’t mind, walking in carefreely, sitting opposite the man, she calmly asked, "You’ve gone to great lengths to bring me here, what do you want?"

The young man was making tea; he poured a cup for Feng Shuangshuang, smiling faintly, "Why do you say such a thing? I’ve never met you before."

Feng Shuangshuang picked up the tea cup, sniffing it. The tea smelled rich, a fine treasure, showing the Drought Demon had quite a taste.

Feng Shuangshuang took a sip, put down the cup lazily, "First of all, you’ve been active at the desert boundary, seemingly causing trouble, but you’re very measured.

The appearance of a Drought Demon inevitably leads to drought, you’re afraid to leave the desert and bring disaster to people, so you’ve stayed within because the desert is least affected by drought.

Many from the Mystic Sect have noticed your activities, yet when others entered the desert, they couldn’t find your trace, returning empty-handed. Only special department officers came and got trapped but unharmed.

What you aim is clear, only special department people can find me and have the ability to enlist my help.

Most importantly, you have no blood debts, so you haven’t harmed anyone, thus capturing many suddenly, you must have a purpose."

The man smiled, stood up and suddenly bowed deeply in an ancient way to Feng Shuangshuang, seriously saying, "You are right, I do have a request.

I am a Drought Demon, leaving this desert to find you would undoubtedly cause disaster, hence was forced to take these measures, I hope you don’t mind.

Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Luo Kong, I am..."

"Wait a minute." Feng Shuangshuang suddenly interrupted Luo Kong’s introduction, hesitantly saying, "Did you say your name is Luo Kong?"

Luo Kong nodded, Feng Shuangshuang raised an eyebrow, "Alright, I know what you want, you want me to bring Lin Tian’er to you, right?"

Luo Kong was first stunned, then his expression softened, full of longing, "She told you about us?"

Feng Shuangshuang nodded, and with rare curiosity asked, "You’ve gone to such lengths to meet me just to find Lin Tian’er, I’m very curious, why didn’t you reincarnate, and why haven’t you gone to find her for so long? Do you know Lin Tian’er has been waiting for you for a thousand years!"

Luo Kong smiled bitterly, explaining, "I didn’t intend this. Originally, after entrusting Tian’er to the antique shop owner, I planned to reincarnate.

But as soon as I left, I unluckily encountered a crappy Taoist. Seeing me as a Walking Corpse, he didn’t let me explain and captured me, suppressing me.

He chose to suppress me in a Corpse Nourishing Land. As a result, resentful energy grew, leading me to turn into a Drought Demon in five hundred years.

I thought becoming a Drought Demon would free me, who knew that Taoist’s skills weren’t much, but the magic treasure he possessed was ancient and powerful, kept me trapped.

I could only struggle against the treasure daily, until a few years ago I escaped, and to not harm people, I rushed to the desert.

I planned immediately to find Tian’er, but in my current form, I cannot live in the Mortal World, plus at that time, the antique shop had no owner, I was helpless despite my anxiety.

Recently, I learned the antique shop has an owner, then urgently arranged this plan to lead you here, please forgive the abruptness."

Feng Shuangshuang waved her hand, rarely hearing a non-tragic story, feeling good, said, "No need, I’ll bring Lin Tian’er to you, you two can reunite and live happily."

Anxious to resolve this matter, Luo Kong was eager to meet Lin Tian’er, thus after opening up, Feng Shuangshuang bid farewell, first finding Ding Yudong and explaining Luo Kong and Lin Tian’er’s situation.

Luo Kong and Lin Tian’er are not cruel by nature, they can register at the Monster Bureau, once Luo Kong cultivates from a Drought Demon to a Flying Zombie, there’s no worry of causing drought.

Then they can even absorb him into special departments, another trump card, saving the need to always rely on others, since the antique shop owner isn’t always around.
