It was true that the snake demon's legs were the most clingy. Li Mu spent a lot of effort to remove Bai Tingxin from his body.
After two years of not seeing each other, the two sisters had grown even more beautiful. One was wearing a white dress, while the other was wearing a green dress. Their figures were also slightly taller as they stood at the entrance of the Li Residence. Li Mu looked around and asked, "Where are your parents?"
Bai Tingxin said angrily, "Hmph, they were traveling around the continent. They thought we were a burden, so they sent us back to the North County to cultivate. Sister said she missed you and insisted on coming here to find you. I could only follow her …"
Bai Tingxin twisted her ear and said angrily, "Who was the one who made a fuss about coming to the Fairy's Capital? How dare you talk about me?"
Li Mu said helplessly, "Alright, alright. Come in first."
This time, the White Demon King and his wife did not come. Only the two sisters came. Li Mu was secretly worried for them. These two nieces were really daring. Snake demons and fox demons were the favorite of those Heretical Cultivation. Even Fifth Realm experts were often captured, let alone these two little demons who had just condensed their demon cores.
They were lucky to have come here safely.
Bai Tingxin walked into the courtyard first and asked, "Are the aunts at home?"
Li Mu said, "No, they are at Mount Baiyun."
"Hehe, that's good …" Bai Tingxin was secretly delighted. She muttered softly. Then, she was stunned and asked, "They … are?"
Li Mu did not explain too much. He only said, "You have two aunts now."
Bai Tingxin looked at the other beautiful woman standing in the courtyard and said blankly, "Is this Third Aunt?"
Li Mu said with a serious expression, "Don't be rude. This is Her Majesty, the Empress of the Great Zhou."
Zhou Yi only glanced at Bai Tingxin indifferently. She was so scared that she hid behind Li Mu and looked at the Empress with frightened eyes.
She grew up in the mountains and was like a little princess at home. She could get whatever she wanted. She did not feel anything about being called the Empress of the Great Zhou. She only vaguely felt that this beautiful woman was very powerful. She was so powerful that she could crush her with her little finger.
Li Mu walked to the Empress and introduced, "Your Majesty, these two are the daughters of my sworn brother. The wild demons do not know the rules. Please forgive them, Your Majesty..."
Wanwan and Xiao Bai also ran over from the side and said happily, "Sister White Snake, Sister Green Snake, you are here …"
Li Mu felt that the house was too quiet just now. Now, it was so lively that it gave him a headache. Wanwan and Xiao Bai were not talkative. Yinxin used to be lively, but after condensing the Yao Core, she gradually became a lady snake. Only Tingxin was crazy. Li Mu thought that she would restrain herself after condensing the Yao Core. He did not expect that after her cultivation improved, she became more lively. Even Wanwan and Xiao Bai were affected.
However, there were benefits to being noisy. At least the house was more lively.
Because of the sisters, Li Mu added a few more dishes. After dinner, Li Mu gave them a stack of banknotes. Wanwan and Xiao Bai took them to the streets to sweep.
Demons from remote places needed some time to adapt to Shen 'du for the first time.
When Li Mu was washing the dishes in the kitchen, the Empress stood in the courtyard and said, "Your nieces are not ordinary snake demons."
Li Mu explained while washing the dishes, "Your Majesty, their father is from the snake race, and their mother is from the dragon race. They have half of the dragon race's bloodline."
Zhou Yi said, "No wonder you don't hate the demon race. There are more demons in your family than humans."
Li Mu explained awkwardly, "Humans are divided into good and bad people. Demons are also divided into good and evil demons. They cannot be lumped together."
Little Bai Wanwan had gone shopping with the Bai sisters. She probably wouldn't return until nightfall. The Empress rolled up her sleeves and brought Li Mu back to the palace. There were still some details to be discussed in the Imperial Secretariat regarding the incorporation of the demonic beasts.
With the help of the officials, the general policy was formulated. After reading it, Li Mu found that there were no problems. He went to Changle Palace and continued to help the Empress read the memorials.
After reading a few memorials, Li Mu saw the one from Jiujiang County.
After the case of the Second-rank Prince of Jiujiang was exposed, his followers were either banished to the army or exiled. As for the Second-rank Prince of Jiujiang, he was a member of the Xiao royal family. If they wanted to determine his life or death, they would have to go through the procedures of the Ministry of Justice, the Ancestral Temple, and the three provinces. They would have to carefully examine the evidence of his crimes.
Li Mu frowned when he flipped open the letter and read its contents.
The memorial said that Jiujiang County's King had committed suicide in prison.
During this time, he had been imprisoned in Jiujiang County's prison. Three days ago, the jailer found him dead in his cell.
The cause of death was the dissipation of his Primordial Spirit. After the investigation, the conclusion was that Jiujiang County's King knew that he would die for his crimes. To avoid suffering, he committed suicide.
Since he would die sooner or later, he would not waste the Imperial Court's resources by doing it himself. Li Mu put down the memorial and stopped paying attention to the matter.
At the same time.
Divine Capital's Southern Court, King Ping's residence.
There were seven princes in the Divine Capital. King Ping was the most senior among them. He was also the pillar of the royal family and the old party.
In King Ping's study, Xiao Ziyu said slowly, "The three provinces have all approved the proposal to incorporate the demons in the Great Zhou. Any demon that enters the Great Zhou will be protected by the laws of the Great Zhou. Killing demons is the same as slaughtering the citizens of the Great Zhou. The prefectures and the Consecration Department can't just sit by and watch …"
King Ping said calmly, "I understand. You may leave."
Xiao Ziyu cupped his fists and left. In the shadows of the study, a black shadow gradually formed and whispered, "Master, I've dealt with Xiao Heng according to your instructions."
King Ping snorted and said, "You can't do anything right, but you're good at spoiling things. You almost ruined everything!"
The black shadow said slowly, "If demons are going to become citizens of the Great Zhou, it won't be so easy to attack them in the future. We must stop the Imperial Court from pushing this."
King Ping waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Let's not provoke that person. We've lost three years of fighting with the Zhou Clan. Why don't we fight with him for three months? It's better not to provoke him. When he hits a wall, he'll give up …"
…
When Li Mu returned from the palace, Wanwan and Xiao Bai had already returned.
The sisters, Yinxin and Tingxin, were choosing their rooms. Li Mu asked, "Does Brother Bai know that you've come to the Divine Capital?"
Bai Tingxin snorted and said, "He only has eyes for my mother. He can't be bothered with us."
Li Mu shook his head and said, "No matter what, we still have to tell him."
Bai Tingxin pouted. "If I don't, he'll get the other uncles to capture us."
Li Mu said, "Be good. I'll tell him when the time comes."
Bai Tingxin reluctantly took out a conch. After activating it, she said a few words to the conch and then handed it to Li Mu.
Li Mu took the conch. Li Mu heard the White Demon King's apologetic voice, "Third Brother, I'm really sorry. These two girls have troubled you. I'll get someone to bring them back in a few days."
Li Mu smiled and said, "No need. If they're willing to stay here, then they can cultivate here. Staying here is beneficial to their cultivation."
The White Demon King laughed and said, "Then I'll leave it to you. If they're disobedient, you can discipline them on my behalf. Especially Tingxin. Discipline her when you need to. Don't spoil her …"
After exchanging a few more words with the White Demon King, Li Mu returned the conch to Bai Tingxin. She hugged Li Mu's arm and shook it. She said obediently, "I'll definitely listen to you, uncle …"
Li Mu pulled his hand out of her embrace. It was indeed better for them to stay here than to cultivate in the North Region.
The last time they parted, Wanwan's cultivation was still very low. Now, she was the same as them. Xiao Bai had far surpassed them.
He didn't dare to say too much, but it shouldn't be a problem for them to both enter the fifth realm after staying with Li Mu for a year.
Moreover, the Demon Clan's Heavenly Book that Li Mu obtained from the Demon Emperor's cave abode happened to be useful.
There was a complete cultivation method of the Snake Clan in it. Li Mu could also cultivate this cultivation method. However, he was a human after all. He could only cultivate to the fifth or sixth realm. Only a true Snake Clan member could unleash the power of the Snake Clan's cultivation method.
Not long ago, when Li Mu pretended to be a Snake Demon and was undercover in the Thousand Fox City, Phantom Princess rewarded him with a fifth realm Snake Demon Pill in order to improve his cultivation. He had been keeping it.
Li Mu stretched out his hand, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand. Bai Tingxin asked curiously, "What's this?"
Li Mu said, "This is …"
He had just said two words when he suddenly realized that there was only one Demon Pill, but his nieces had two. Who should he give it to?
Both of them were flesh and blood. As an elder, if he favored one and discriminated against the other, the other would feel terrible. Li Mu thought for a moment and asked, "Look at this jade bottle. Isn't it beautiful …"
