Demon Venerable, He Wants to Skip Work Every Day

Lu Jiuning died one day and transmigrated to another world, where, completely bewildered, he was pushed onto the throne of the Demon Lord.

When the new Demon Lord took the throne, all the sects came to offer their congratulations, bringing countless rare treasures.

Even Fu Qinghan, the Sect Master of Wanqing Sect, the foremost sect of the immortal path and the greatest man of the age, came in person.

The entire Demon Realm celebrated. "The Immortal Venerable himself has come! We’re finally going to have money!!"

A birthday gift from the Immortal Venerable was bound to be worth something. It might even provide for the Demon Lord’s household for quite a while.

And Lu Jiuning, the person at the center of the festivities, shamefully fell in love with the Immortal Venerable Fu Qinghan at first sight.

He wanted to pluck this aloof beauty down and keep him by his side every moment, where no one else could covet him.

Fu Qinghan had a terrible feeling about this leader of the Demon Realm. Lu Jiuning’s wolf-like gaze constantly made even a mighty cultivator at the Deity Transformation stage want to run away.

Lu Jiuning was dejected. Even the people of the demonic path tried to talk him out of it. "My Lord, think carefully before you act! Our Demon Realm is too poor to support the Immortal Venerable!"

"They say the Immortal Venerable rides a nine-colored luan phoenix when he travels."

We only have nine-headed candle dragons in the Demon Realm. They’re nowhere near fit for the Immortal Venerable’s noble bearing. Those nine-headed candle dragons have been starving for three hundred years. A strong breeze could probably blow them away!

"They say the Immortal Venerable’s clothes are all woven from the softest heavenly silkworm silk."

The heavenly silkworms we raise haven’t eaten in ten years. We save the silk they spin to make clothes for the Demon Lord. Just look at us ordinary demons: every one of us has to wear rags.

"They say..."

Lu Jiuning was painfully aware of how poor the Demon Realm was. Even the roads were full of potholes.

They couldn’t even afford to keep a husband.

Lu Jiuning sharpened his knives and began making sweeping reforms. He was determined to marry his beloved and bring him home.
