Shizun, Misunderstood this Disciple As a Hero. [bl]

Chapter 37: Shizun Is A Good Player.

Yun Lixin and Xiu Qiangshu stalled through the streets, passing by stalls. There were decorations everywhere. Paper lanterns, hanging by a thread, attach from one roof of the stall to the other. Demons and spirits crowded the streets. Demonic kids and spirits ran everywhere, laughing and enjoying themselves.

Xiu Qiangshu noticed how the children in the demon realm were different than those in the human world. They were obviously much stronger and smarter than human children at their age. The spirits children, however, were children who had died at a young age.

Xiu Qinagshu couldn't help but find it crazy how human beings, when they are alive, always loathe demons, but once they die, they go to the demon realm to enjoy themselves and don't seem to hate the demons anymore.

"Is there some festival going on?" Xiu Qiangshu asked one of the stallkeepers. The stallkeeper was a demon, tall, his flesh crimson. He fanned himself with a hand fan.

"It's rather a celebration for our new guests that have come to visit the demon realm. We keep it every day." The stallkeeper replied. Xiu Qiangshu nodded at the information.

No, no, we keep it only once a month." Another demon with the height of a dwarf, whose stall was right beside this tall demon, chimed in.

"Well, I heard that the demon king kept this celebration for a very special guest of his." A stranger calmly commented. By the way, when the stranger emphasized the special guest, everyone understood that he meant that the special guest was the demon king's lover.

Yun Lixin gave a small, stiff smile.

Everyone's saying a different thing. Which is the truth? Xiu Qiangshu wondered as he glanced at the stallkeepers and then at the stranger, skeptical.

Everyone stared at the stranger in silence As they glanced at each other. They awkwardly laughed and made excuses to go back to work.

Everyone seemed to fear the demon King. Even talking about him makes them frightened. However, this stranger doesn't seem to care. Maybe he is new? Xiu Qiangshu glimpsed at the stranger. He was similar in height to Xiu Qiangshu. He had his arms crossed in front of him. Xiu Qiangshu could see the stranger's tattoo on his wrist, but could only see half of it.

"Play darts and win a prize!" A stallkeeper who was a spirit loudly announced Some passersby stopped by and started playing the darts as they won prizes, and some didn't.

There were darts here! Xiu Qiangshu thought with joy. He excitedly pulled Yun Lixin's wrist and dragged him to the stall where people were playing darts and earning prizes.

Xiu Qiangshu excitedly and patiently waited for his turn to play the darts. The stallkeeper noticed Yun Lixin and Xiu Qiangshu as he called out.

"Sir, you go first!" The stallkeeper called out

Xiu Qiangshu pointed his index finger toward himself and asked, "Me?" He asked.

The stallkeeper nodded while smiling.

"There are still many ahead of me; I can't just break the line." Xiu Qiangshu replied. The demons and spirits who were waiting in line turned around, everyone's eyes shifting from Yun Lixin to Xiu Qiangshu. They quickly moved to each side, making space for Xiu Qiangshu to walk through.

"Go ahead." One of the demons who was first in the waiting line said

Yes, go ahead; we don't mind." A spirit responds.

Xiu Qiangshu hesitantly looked at Yun Lixin.

"They don't mind you playing before them, As they said." Yun Lixin smiled and said, "Go ahead." He urged.
