Chapter 583: What a Favor

Bai Er led Ran Ran through the snow-covered and jade-covered path, and soon they entered the back mountain the front mountain is a pure ice and snow color, the only word that comes to people's minds is purity. The back mountain is like a red plum forest in the ice and snow. At a glance, you can see the bright colors like flames burning in it.

Bai Er couldn't help but smile when he saw Ranran staring at the red color intently.

"Those are all little gadgets that Lord Yi pestered Lady Saint to make. One a day, after a while, they can be seen everywhere in the back mountain."

"Does Mr. Shen want to take a look?"

Ran Ran felt the sour feeling spreading in Shen Yanwen's body and was about to refuse, but Bai Er was quick and had already taken the nearest one.

When viewed from a distance, it looked like a ball of red flame. Now that I'm looking closer, it really is a ball of fire!

But the fire has a specific shape!

In the center of the flames, which were surrounded by layers of flowers, there was a person! It looked like a flame elf in a fairy tale sleeping peacefully.

Ranran couldn't help looking at it in wonder, but when she got closer and took a closer look at the little creature's features, she discovered that this "fire elf" looked exactly like Lord Yi.

Bai Er couldn't help laughing when he saw Ran Ran's weird look.

"Master Shen, there is no need to doubt yourself. This flame sculpture is the image of Master Yi."

"Master Yi asked Lady Saint to mold one of him with fire every day." The flame in Bai Er's hand became more vigorous and brilliant as the spiritual energy flowed, and Qin Siyi's eyebrows became more beautiful and charming. "That's why we can see such a rare thing."

Even until Bai Er casually hung the flame high up on the white jade-like branch, Ranran still did not retract his surprised expression.

"It's really well made! I've only heard of using clay to make shapes before, but this is the first time I've seen it made with fire."

Bai Er smiled even more happily, "I've said before that the Saint Lady knows things that you may not be able to imagine, Mr. Shen."

Ran Ran shook her head and stared at the flames on the branches with a sigh, "I really didn't expect this."

Bai Er, however, interpreted her sigh as disappointment, "Master Shen, don't be sad. We are amazed by this flame and feel it is beyond human control, but for the Saint Lady, it is just a blink of an eye."

"Mr. Shen, you don't have to regard this as a great favor."

Ranran suddenly opened her eyes wide. She didn't mean that at all!

Bai Er continued, "In my opinion, the Saint Lady is the one who really cares about you, Mr. Shen."

He stared at the clothes on Ran Ran and said directly: "Not to mention Wu Shan, no one in the entire Demon Realm has ever worn clothes designed by the Saint Lady herself."

"Even the Demon Lord has never experienced this."

Bai Er looked at Ran Ran with a half-smile, "Mr. Shen, you are the first one."

Ran Ran slightly widened her eyes in fear, "...Really? I'm quite honored."

Bai Er didn't finish, and continued: "And this dress was given to you by the Saint Lady, Master Shen, you didn't ask for it. The Flame Pet is indeed gorgeous, but it was obtained by Master Yi who used tricks to pester the Saint Lady every day."

“That’s a huge difference.”

Can Ranran say that she doesn’t care about these things at all?

How come not only the candidates in her group have to flatter her, but even Bai Er, an official, has to flatter her... Hasn't she officially become a familiar yet...

Before he could stop thinking, he slowly heard Bai Erdao.

"And you, Master Shen, are the first one to come to the back mountain without a title."

As soon as Bai Er finished speaking, the flame hanging on the branch suddenly grew larger, and the next moment it burned out in an instant, leaving nothing behind.

Ran Ran was startled, "Is this thing so unstable?!"

Bai Er looked at the empty branches with a gloomy look in his eyes, but he returned to normal when he looked at Ranran.

"On the contrary, these little gadgets made by the Saint Lady are very stable. Many of them have been hanging on the tree for a year and are still burning."

"Then why did this suddenly break and explode?" Ran Ran was still frightened and subconsciously moved away from the white jade trees with flames. "It's not broken." Bai Er said calmly, "It was destroyed."

"After these little gadgets were made by Lady Saint, they were kept by Lord Yi. He can hang them on a tree if he wants, or put them next to the bed if he wants. It's up to him to decide where to put them. Just like you, he can decide whether to keep them or not."

Ran Ran was confused, "What do you mean?"

Bai Er made a "please" gesture to Ran Ran, and the two continued walking on the path.

"A similar situation happened before. Lord Yi was angry with Lady Saint and destroyed these little gadgets. That was the situation at that time."

"The flame exploded with a bang."

Ran Ran still didn't understand, "The fire was right in front of us, and Lord Yi couldn't see or touch it, so how could it be suddenly destroyed by him in anger?"

Bai Er smiled mysteriously, "Who said I can't see it? Maybe I can not only see it, but I can also hear it."

Ran Ran didn't understand what it meant, but from the corner of her eye she could vaguely see that several flames around her were suddenly burning more vigorously.

She stretched out her hand to block the falling white jade branches of a tree, "Master Yi is actually angry with Lady Saint?"

After all, based on her superficial understanding, Lord Yi cared too much about the Saint Maiden, and would get very angry if someone else spoke to her.

Ran Ran suspected that he simply could not tolerate the Saint casting her gaze on others, or focusing her attention on others.

Bai Er smiled and said, "Of course he would be angry, because Master Yi's life revolves around the Saint Lady, so his joys and sorrows all revolve around the Saint Lady."

Ran Ran frowned slightly. She didn’t like this description very much, or rather, she didn’t like this situation.

Everyone should live for themselves.

“It’s really hard to imagine.”

Bai Er stretched out his hand to help Ran Ran block the branches sticking out diagonally in front of him, "Do you need me to give you an example?"

Ranran immediately refused with a smile. She had no interest in knowing the private lives of other couples.

Bai Er sighed, "Rather than being angry with Lady Saint, it's more like Master Yi is angry with himself."

"What are you angry about?" Ranran then became a little curious.

She loves to see others find themselves.

"He's angry that his world is full of Saint Ladies, but Saint Ladies can't do the same as him."

"I believe you have heard similar remarks, Master Shen." Bai Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The Wushan selection organized by the Saint Lady is even more exaggerated than the selection of concubines in the mortal dynasties."

"The strong sense of inequality is probably the source of Master Yi's anger."

Ran Ran asked in confusion, "Is this the Saint's fault? Did you, Wu Shan, imprison him and not let him leave?"

"Of course not!" Bai Er couldn't understand why Ran Ran would have such an idea, "Wu Shan never forces anyone to stay. No matter who stays here, they just want to stay here."

"If anyone wants to leave, they can leave at any time."

"Lord Yi is angry. He is angry at Lady Saint and at himself. But that doesn't mean that he is living in misery here, or even unable to escape. Quite the contrary..."

“He enjoys it.”

Ran Ran's heart was moved when she heard this. She didn't care what Master Yi was thinking. She only cared about one thing: Bai Er's intention was to say...

Can she leave here? (End of this chapter)
