Chapter 452 The Prize
Wu You couldn’t help but take a look at Li Ye when she heard that. She thought in her mind, “When did you have 800 singers and dancers in your mansion? When you were in Chang’an, almost all the people in Prince An’s mansion left… when you were in Pinglu, I heard that you were busy with politics and had no time to lead a life of pleasure. There were only a few maidservants in your mansion…”
But Steward Little Bear didn’t know these things. He only knew that the mortal world was much more prosperous than the demon clan. As the grand prince of the royal dynasty, Li Ye might have been living a luxurious life, and only the life of seven sages could be mentioned in the same breath. In this way, he did be slighted in the City Lord’s Mansion.
So he quickly said, “No problem. I’ll gather all the singers and dancers in the mansion, and you can choose at will!”
Li Ye frowned and said, “Hmm?”
Seeing Li Ye’s unhappy face, Steward Little Bear immediately said, “No, you don’t have to choose, Prince An. They are all yours!”
Li Ye was even more reluctant. “What did you say?”
Steward Little Bear opened his mouth, but was speechless. “Are you still unsatisfied? What do you want me to do?” Suddenly, he remembered the order of the demon bear. So he bit his teeth and finally made up his mind, saying, “All the female demons in the mansion can be chosen and enjoyed by you at will, Prince An!”
Hearing that, Li Ye could say nothing.
“Do I mean that? I even refused the innkeeper, and will I accept the female demons in your mansion?”
Li Ye’s face darkened. He said, “It’s not the female demons that I want!”
Steward Little Bear opened his mouth again. After a while, he swallowed his saliva and said difficultly, “Is what you want… male demons? Er… it’s also no problem.”
But he said in his mind that the mortal’s hobby was really strange and there were even such requirements.
Li Ye didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He thought it was about time, so he said directly, “Let all the cultivators whose cultivation is above the Ground Immortal Realm in the City Lord’s Mansion come to my courtyard at once, and I’ll have fun with them!”
“Okay, I’ll do it right now!” Steward Little Bear immediately promised. But after hesitating for a moment, he couldn’t resist his curiosity and asked tentatively, “Do you want all the cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm, or just the male demons in the Sky Immortal Realm?”
“Get away!” Li Ye was furious.
Steward Little Bear ran away immediately.
Wu You asked curiously, “Why do you want to see the cultivators in the mansion, Brother Ye?”
Li Ye smiled and said quite mysteriously, “I want their magic treasures.”
Li Ye and others had strolled most part of the City Lord’s Mansion, so they went straight back to their courtyard. Li Ye took out the deck chair again and placed it on the stone steps at the door, then he lay on it comfortably, waiting for the arrival of the people of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Maybe the demon leopard thought that there would be many cultivators coming, so he didn’t sit on the stone bench in the courtyard, but stood beside Li Ye with arms crossed before his chest. Now his momentum was highlighted, which fitted his identity of a guard.
Wu You, the innkeeper, and other demons took out chairs and were sitting beside, waiting to watch the show. The innkeeper got some melon seeds from somewhere. At the moment, Wu You and she were eating leisurely.
The sparrow was still standing on the branch. As a bird as well as a scout, it was reasonable that he liked to stand on the high ground. Compared with other people, the sparrow looked the most excited, as if he couldn’t wait for a good show to play.
Soon, Steward Little Bear came here with a group of all sorts of cultivators.
There were many cultivators in the City Lord’s Mansion, but most of them were in the Real Immortal Realm or below. The proportion of those above the Ground Immortal Realm was small, but the absolute number was also quite large. In total, there were more than 100 cultivators above the Ground Immortal Realm.
So many demons came together, which made Li Ye pay special regard to Steward Little Bear’s ability of handling affairs. Sure enough, the City Lord did not need to be so wise, but he must be surrounded by highly resourced staff and a smart steward who could solve problems quickly.
In fact, Steward Little Bear’s identity was also extraordinary. He was a relative of the demon bear, so he could handle things so quickly.
In addition, there were few demons in the City Lord’s Mansion who knew that the demon bear had assassinated Li Ye. Only two henchmen knew that, because the demon bear had made a third party the instrument of assassinating Li Ye. So most of them were curious about Li Ye. Besides, they came here for fun nominally, so everyone was in high spirits and didn’t have much resistance.
Of course, not all the demons were willing to submit to Steward Little Bear and Li Ye, for example, the demon python, the chief of city guards at the front.
He was now in the form of human. He looked slim and had a feminine face. But no one dared to underestimate him, not only because of his deep eyes, which were always full of fierceness, but also because he was in the Great Completion of Real Immortal Realm.
The demon python had a good opinion of himself, and was not convinced of the demon bear, because he didn’t think the demon bear was wise. When the Steward Little Bear went to find him before, he didn’t want to come at first. But Steward Little Bear’s words made him have to come.
“It’s better for you to see Prince An now than to be found by him,” said Steward Little Bear
The demon python suddenly understood.
Although he looked down upon Li Ye’s cultivation, he could not help but be afraid of Li Ye’s wisdom. He was the ruthless man who had gone to the City Lord’s Mansion and taken away all the magic treasures of the demon bear. The demon python thought that himself was no smarter than the demon dhole, who even couldn’t do anything to Li Ye, so he had to be careful.
“Prince An, all the cultivators above the Ground Immortal Realm in the mansion are here. If you have any orders, please tell me,” said Steward Little Bear, cupping one hand in the other before his chest.
Li Ye was very satisfied and looked around the demons. His eyes brightened, as if he was looking at mountains of gold and silver. Among these cultivators, there were a lot of cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm, and several cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm, which meant that there were many magic treasures.
