Chapter 288: Demonic Monk

When Lu Sheng passed by the lotus pond, she squatted down and reached into the water to test the temperature. She realized that even the water’s temperature was gentle.

She had to admit that this was somewhat novel to her.

She was about to retract her hand when a white lotus suddenly wrapped around her wrist. The flower reached her face and shook gently.

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow, only to hear the State Minister say, “It likes Miss Lu a lot.”

“Really?”

Lu Sheng smiled and stroked the white lotus. “I like you too.”

The white lotus shook as if to express its joy.

When the other white lotuses heard that, they scrambled to extend their branches.

“Alright.”

The State Minister said indifferently, “Don’t scare my guests.”

When the lotuses heard that, they retracted silently.

Even the one wrapped around Lu Sheng’s hand slowly retracted.

Lu Sheng smiled and said, “They can actually understand human speech.”

Chu Sihan explained in a low voice, “These are all flower spirits. They have consciousness.”

Lu Sheng nodded. “Are they similar to the Red Spider Lilies in the Netherworld?”

In the past, she had interacted with ghosts the most. She only interacted with demons and spirits after coming to this world.

“More or less. They’re all spirits formed from absorbing spiritual energy.”

Chu Sihan held her hand and followed behind the State Minister and Ye Luo. As they walked, he explained, “After a person dies, they turn into a soul. If they are fated to cultivate, they will also turn into a spirit. These plants and trees are similar. After growing in places with rich spiritual energy for a long time, they will naturally turn into spirits.”

Lu Sheng had heard of this before. For example, a spirit formed from flowers and trees would be able to transform into a human after cultivating for a thousand years, just like the State Minister.

However, such opportunities were rare.

Of course, it would be a different story in the Demon Realm.

In the State Minister’s courtyard, besides the white lotus, there were also various flowers that crossed seasons.

The flowers of the four seasons bloomed here.

The few of them entered a small pavilion. The State Minister gestured for the three of them to take their seats first while he headed in another direction.

After five minutes, the State Minister returned.

He was holding a pot of wine and a few monks carrying takeout boxes followed behind him.

The monks left after preparing the dishes.

The table was filled with vegetarian dishes. Moreover, they didn’t have any oil at all.

Lu Sheng picked up her chopsticks and tasted them curiously. Her expression froze slightly.

Ye Luo laughed heartily.

After drinking a cup of wine, he reminded Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan, “Other than wine, there’s nothing edible in Pure Snow Observatory.”

When Ye Luo first arrived, he naively thought that these dishes would not taste that bad no matter how bad they were.

However, after taking a bite, he stopped eating.

Later on, he went to the kitchen to ask the kitchen staff and learned that the State Minister made those dishes himself.

Although he was flattered that his Senior Brother personally cooked, the taste was not flattering at all.

Who could possibly eat a boiled dish that didn’t have oil and salt?

The State Minister glanced at him indifferently and took off his bamboo hat.

This was the first time Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan saw the State Minister’s face.

The term ‘demonic monk’ subconsciously appeared in Lu Sheng’s mind.

There was a white lotus on his forehead. His face was fair and handsome. When he looked at people, his eyes seemed to contain autumn water, gentle and charming.

“Cough—”

Chu Sihan coughed lightly to attract Lu Sheng’s gaze back from the State Minister.

He was just a bald monk. So what if he was handsome?

Moreover, could he be more handsome than him?

“Disciple, is your throat uncomfortable?”

Ye Luo put down the cup of wine in his hand and looked at him worriedly.

Chu Sihan was speechless.
