Chapter 453

The place was a wreck. Kian bent down, scooping up the fluffy bunny. He couldn’t resist rubbing it once, then blushed, picking up her scattered clothes and jewelry.

The few who hadn’t fled the inn were still reeling. They tried to stand on shaky legs, but then a group of young folks in flowing blue robes burst in.

“We heard an evil demon’s causing trouble here. We’re here to take it down. Uh, evil demon?” Their eyes landed on Nyx, and they all froze.

After a moment, they swallowed hard, hands itching to reach out. “This is the trouble–making demon? Let me teach her a lesson.”

What kind of wicked bunny dares to be this fuzzy, this round? She deserves to be locked up and petted a hundred times a day as punishment!‘ they thought.

Kian warily tucked the bunny close, shielding her. “No, the troublemaker was a black bear demon.”

“Yeah, yeah!” the crowd chimed in, emboldened by the immortals‘ arrival.

“That guy tried to force the lady to drink with him. When bribes didn’t work, he got pushy, used some demon trick to trap this guy in a little cauldron, and turned a perfectly good lady into a rabbit!”

“But he just got beat and ran off!”

They didn’t catch why Bale really bolted–just thought Kian scared him off. Suddenly, they were all in awe, praising Kian’s noble looks and vibe, saying he didn’t seem mortal.

The innkeeper, who’d been cold then pimped for Bale, shrank into a corner, not daring to groan, keeping his head down.

The blue–robed cultivators turned to Kian, surprised. “You a cultivator too? Which sect?”

Before they got far, their eyes drifted back to Nyx, practically drooling. “That your spirit pet?”

“Can I borrow her for a pat?”

“Me too!”

“Where’d you catch her? Point me that way?”

“Any more bunnies from her litter?”

Their voices dripped with love. Kian didn’t know whether to get mad, feeling torn as he cradled the bunny, heading outside while coolly explaining, “Not a spirit pet. My fiancee.”

The cultivators trailed him like puppies, chattering nonstop.

“Oh, fiancee? Can’t touch then.”

“Sorry, we were rude earlier.”

They introduced themselves as disciples of the Celestial’s Demon–Subduing Peak, coming to the mortal realm regularly to hunt evil demons and fiends as part of their training.

Kian flicked them a glance, hesitating, then held back.

“That bear demon–was he wearing robes like ours? Big beard?” the lead disciple asked.

Kian nodded, and they fumed. “It’s him alright! He stole immortal herbs from the Celestial. We’ve been chasing him!”

“Kian, wanna come with us” Before he finished, Kian stopped dead, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
