After I transmigrated into the book, both the female lead and I became fragrant

Chapter 76

General Su's forehead was covered in sweat, and he and the other soldiers behind him stood up straight and properly, trembling with fear.

The white-robed cultivator saw Shen Qiqi squatting on the ground and not moving, and quickly pulled her up, asking in a low and frustrated voice, "What's wrong with you? Why are you always lagging behind?"

Shen Qiqi didn't answer, her gaze firmly fixed on Liu Shuang, her mouth open and staring foolishly.

Senior sister looked a bit thinner, her red eyes half-closed, her soft black hair sticking to her neck, making her skin even paler, as if she were made of snow, cold and serene.

The slender arm wrapped in the wide sleeve was slightly bent, lazily supporting the white chin, still beautiful enough to make her heart tremble.

The Ye Tower Hall was very quiet.

The Demon Lord did not give any orders, and no one dared to make a sound. General Su clenched his fists and stood with his head down, sweating profusely, itching and uneasy as the sweat ran down his forehead and over his rough cheeks.

After a while, Liu Shuang said lightly, "Please take a seat."

As if granted amnesty, General Su suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and sat down in the vacant seat to his right. The soldiers followed suit and the atmosphere became lively again.

The accompanying prisoners were not eligible to sit and were ordered to stand in the back hall. A row of dirty righteous cultivators lowered their heads like monkeys on display, being pointed and talked about by the guests.

"Is this the prisoner brought back today?"

The heavily made-up and graceful woman licked her red tongue and showed a fierce look. "Look at these slender arms and legs. They look delicious."

She turned her head and saw Shen Qiqi, holding her orchid finger and pinching her nose, rolling her eyes. "What's wrong with this person? So dirty and stinky."

Shen Qiqi stood there covered in blood, quickly making the passing guests unable to stand the stench. Someone nearby started to agree, "Can't we take her out? She's so dirty and stinky, it's affecting my appetite."

The nearby soldiers grabbed Shen Qiqi's arm and said, "Come with me! What are you standing there for?"

Being pulled twice, Shen Qiqi reluctantly moved her gaze away from Liu Shuang, blinked in confusion, and asked, "Huh? Where are we going?"

"Of course, we're going out!" The soldier frowned, "Or do you want to stand here and pollute the air with your stench?"

Shen Qiqi's expression suddenly changed upon hearing that she had to leave. "No, I can't go!"

The soldier asked in surprise, "Are you addicted to standing here or something?"

"No, no, I have something to do," Shen Qiqi whispered, "Excuse me, can you help me? I want to have a chat with Liu...with the demon lord."

The soldier persisted, "You? What do you have to say to the demon lord?" His loud voice drew curious glances from the surrounding guests, who eagerly watched the confrontation between the two.

"Just a personal matter, actually, the demon lord and I go way back..." There were murmurs of disbelief, and Shen Qiqi nervously tugged at her clothes. "Don't be skeptical! It's true!"

"Girl, you're working too hard to stay alive, to the point where you dare to tell such lies?!" The white-robed cultivator to her left shook his head at her words. "You're almost making me believe you."
