The Liang Family estate was peaceful and solemn.
Lěng Yè landed lightly in the courtyard and quickly walked toward Liang Xin’s room. On the way back, he had specifically bought some candied haws, placed them into the storage space of the Demon Locking Pagoda, and had the Tower Spirit pass them on to the Nine-Spirit Primordial Saint.
According to the Tower Spirit, the ancient mighty being had been overjoyed after tasting them, praising Lěng Yè as a thoughtful young man. Lěng Yè had long since heard tales of the Nine-Spirit Primordial Saint: a powerful figure of the Demon race who had shaken the world since ancient times, whose true form was a majestic lion with nine heads, possessed of unfathomable strength. Yet, such a formidable existence actually had a fondness for sweets, especially candied haws—a rather unexpected trait. Whenever he imagined that massive figure enjoying the treats while praising him, Lěng Yè always felt a strange sensation in his heart. Still, since a few sticks of candied haws could buy such a valuable opportunity, probing into the reasons behind it hardly seemed important anymore.
