After hearing Mirror's words, Cheng Xiaofan was greatly astonished. Could she, in this back garden, see everything he had done in the ancient castle through the mirror in her hand?
Just then, Mirror spoke again, "Ever since you checked into the hotel yesterday, I've been watching you in my mirror."
"Anyone who can appear in my mirror must be no ordinary person. I surmised that you, coming all the way from Huaxia, must be here to accomplish something that would shake the entire Fosman Island!"
"As expected, once you entered the ancient castle, you annihilated all the demon cultivators and soldiers within, including Mengli and Heita'er."
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled, "To be precise, Mengli was killed by your sister, Luolin, and Heita'er. If Luolin hadn't given me the soft bone powder, I wouldn't have thought of making Mengli drink it."
"It's just that I didn't expect the soft bone powder to be so potent!"
Hearing this, Luolin, still shaken, said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cheng, I was wrong!"
"Miss Mirror, do you know why I've come here to find you?" Cheng Xiaofan asked, glancing at Mirror.
Mirror replied, "Of course I know. You want me to step forward and rule the demon cultivators in this region for you!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but think that she must have seen his conversation with the Demon Lamp Elder through that mirror.
He considered himself fortunate that he had stayed here last night and hadn't had any "that kind of thing" happen with the two snake spirits, otherwise, he didn't know what kind of person he would be in Miss Mirror's eyes.
"Miss Mirror, you are correct. I have indeed come with that intention. Are you willing?" Cheng Xiaofan asked again.
Mirror smiled, "I am only worried that I am too young. While I can rule the demon cultivators on Fosman Island, I might not be able to make those outside listen to me!"
At this moment, the Demon Lamp Elder spoke, "Miss Mirror, as long as you accept Mr. Cheng's suggestion, I, this old monster, am willing to assist you. With this demon lamp in my hand and my advanced age, I can at least keep some unruly individuals in check!"
Mirror, her face blooming into a smile, said, "Demon Lamp Elder, with your words, I will accept the position of leader of the demon cultivator world!"
"Excellent!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "Miss Mirror, you are a beautiful and kind-hearted person. I believe that Fosman Island and the demon cultivator world will surely improve under your rule!"
Mirror inquired, "Mr. Cheng, if I had consistently refused, what would you have done?"
Hearing this, Cheng Xiaofan let out a soft sigh, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly, "Then I would have used the Demon Bone Saber to slaughter all the demon cultivators on the island!"
As soon as his words fell, the Demon Lamp Elder, Luolin, and even Mirror couldn't help but tremble slightly, as if they were afraid of the cold.
Cheng Xiaofan explained, "I would have done this out of necessity. There will always be some demon cultivators who scheme to seize the Demon Bone Saber from me. If I don't cut the weeds and eliminate the roots, they will surely become future trouble!"
"With Miss Mirror as the leader and the Demon Lamp Elder assisting me in guarding Fosman Island, I can rest assured!"
"Of course—"
Saying this, he changed the subject, "Miss Mirror, if there are any demon cultivators who refuse to obey your and the Demon Lamp Elder's command, you can call me immediately. No matter who they are, I will eliminate them!"
"Understood!" Mirror nodded slightly and responded.
Cheng Xiaofan then said to Luolin, "Luolin, it's already noon. Should you prepare lunch?"
Luolin quickly replied, "Yes, I will prepare lunch immediately!"
Returning to the house, Luolin brought out some local fruits and pastries, and brewed a cup of tea for each of them, then went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
While drinking tea, Cheng Xiaofan asked the Demon Lamp Elder, "Last time, Laura and her brother, Wulann, brought over thirty young women to assassinate me in Huaxia. I eliminated all of them except for Laura."
"At that time, I kept Laura to send a message back to Mengli. When I arrived here this time, why didn't I see her?"
The Demon Lamp Elder, hearing this, gave a wry smile and said, "After Laura returned and failed her mission, coupled with her demon cultivation being crippled, Mengli felt she had no further use for her and killed her!"
Cheng Xiaofan sneered, "It seems Mengli was very ruthless towards his subordinates!"
At this moment, Mirror curiously asked Cheng Xiaofan, "Mr. Cheng, can you let me have a look at the Demon Bone Saber?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Miss Mirror, as you are about to become the new leader of the demon cultivator world, of course, you can have a look at the Demon Bone Saber!"
With that said, he retrieved the Demon Bone Saber from his spatial backpack and handed it to Mirror.
Mirror received the Demon Bone Saber with both hands and curiously ran her hand over the seven stars, her face filled with amazement. She said, "What a beautiful scabbard! It's truly stunning!"
She then drew out the blade, which was as black as ink crystal. A brilliant, demonic radiance immediately flashed from the blade.
That radiance was like a dazzling flower, blooming so suddenly, yet so soul-stirring and captivating.
"It's so beautiful!"
As Mirror was exclaiming in wonder, the radiance suddenly enveloped her entire body and then disappeared into her.
Seeing this, Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but be taken aback.
Then, he understood.
He hadn't expected the Demon Bone Saber to sense Mirror, who was about to become the leader of the demon world, and infuse a mysterious power into her body to enhance her cultivation.
"Oh my God!"
At this moment, Mirror had clearly felt the mysterious power surging into her body and exclaimed in awe, "I can't believe this Demon Bone Saber has bestowed such a magical power upon me!"
She returned the Demon Bone Saber to Cheng Xiaofan's hand, then immediately knelt before him, saying with immense excitement, "Thank you, Mr. Cheng!"
Mirror knew very well that with the Demon Bone Saber in Cheng Xiaofan's possession, the mysterious power she received was, in essence, bestowed by him.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Miss Mirror, from today onwards, you and the Demon Lamp Elder are my best friends, Cheng Xiaofan. Please refrain from such kowtowing in the future."
"Get up quickly!"
Mirror immediately got up from the ground and said, "Okay, Mr. Cheng, I will listen to you!"
Not long after, Luolin finished preparing the meal and served it onto the table.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but feel a sense of joy. Luolin was indeed thoughtful, having prepared dishes that he liked from Huaxia.
Although the ingredients couldn't compare to those from his own home, they looked quite good.
"Have you learned to cook Huaxia cuisine?" Cheng Xiaofan asked.
Luolin nodded, her tone ingratiating, "My guests come from all over the world, and there are also some from Huaxia. They don't care for the Western cuisine on the island, so I found relevant recipes and learned to make some Huaxia dishes."
She then brought out a bottle of white wine. Cheng Xiaofan recognized it as "Qian Ri Zui" wine.
This Tu Fengzi is quite capable, having managed to get his branded wine onto Fosman Island.
It seems the production volume of Mother's Happy Wine is still too small. Otherwise, it would be no problem for it to reach every corner of the world.
Luolin poured a glass of wine for everyone at the table.
To Cheng Xiaofan's surprise, Mirror could also drink this wine, and judging by her expression, she seemed to particularly enjoy it.
