Demon King's Repayment - chapter 104
Yuan Xiang recognized the fox and suddenly remembered that this was the little fox who she met in her childhood hometown. At that time, she was the third girl of the Yuan family. She often ran wildly in the field.
At that time, this little fox mostly appeared as a half-demon-shaped little boy, so Yuan Xiang didn’t recognize him for a while.
Before going out, Ru Shi sewed a backpack with animal skin for her. The sound of horseshoes in the forest was getting closer, so Yuan Xiang hurriedly opened the backpack, took out a few things from it and hid the injured little fox inside.
After hiding him, she saw people on horses galloping out from the depths of the forest each with a hat, a bow and sword, feather clusters inserted in flying fish bags, and prey tied behind the saddle.
The crowd was led by a young man, dressed in a heavy lotus flower robe with small sleeves, tied with a double tail snake scale belt at the waist, with a black gauze crown around the temples. The ribbon was fluttering, holding a fine dog on the left and a goshawk on the right. He looked cold and extraordinary.
These people stopped their horses and someone rushed to Yuan Xiang and Nan He and asked, “Have you seen a wounded fox pass by?”
Yuan Xiang shook her head blankly, with a sincere expression and good acting skills.
But the man among them was unmoved. He frowned and looked at Yuan Xiang for a moment, then said lightly, “Open your back and let us take a look.”
Yuan Xiang protected her backpack with a look of alert, “Are you a mountain bandits?”
The group laughed,
A companion who opened the way came forward to persuade, “Little lady, this is the master of Dongxuan Sect. You must not be rude. Just open your bag quickly, after checking, I will give it back to you.”
Yuan Xiang refused, “No, we are in the wilderness, so what guarantee that you will give it back to me?”
“There is no need to talk to her. I noticed the fluctuation of Qi. Obviously there is a little demon hidden. Bring that baggage,” the young man said in a harsh tone.
As soon as that sentence fell, a cat’s head came out of the backpack on Yuan Xiang’s back in full view. The cat meowed at the crowd rather unhappily and squatted on Yuan Xiang’s shoulder. A red mark flashed faintly between his eyebrows.
“Apostle? Isn’t that an apostle? Was the fluctuation of Qi transmitted from him?”
“Such a little girl turned out to be a fellow.”
“Could you tell which school she is from? She is outside alone at such an age”
Several Taoists in robes in the crowd began to whisper. They weren’t like the group of casual Taoists in Zhou Deyun’s home making a fuss about having an apostle, but most of them were surprised that she traveled alone at such a young age.
“It turned out to be a Taoist friend.” The man in the middle hesitated for a moment and stretched out his hand to give a ceremonial ceremony, “I’m the disciple of the immortal Miaomiao11 Tao, the head of the Dongxuan Sect. Dare to ask which school you are from and who is the teacher?”
Dongxuan Sect was worshiped as the state religion and respected by the Emperor. Their disciples were noble and had extraordinary cultivation. Wherever they went, they were the center of people’s pursuit. Naturally, all of them had a haughty temper.
At a young age, this Yun Xuan was accepted as a direct disciple by Master Miaomiao11 Dao so he had a cold and arrogant aura. It was just that he was ordered by his teacher to take his younger brothers out and had to restrain his temper. Therefore, it was not good to clash with people from other schools for no reason.
So he reported his origin and asked politely, thinking that no matter which school the girl came from, she wouldn’t fail to give them face and embarrass them for a little fox.
Yuan Xiang shook her head, “Sorry, I don’t know you. If there is nothing wrong, I will leave first.”
She had already seen clearly that there were many dead “prey” hung on the horses of these people. Obviously, they were little demons that turned into their own form after death, some had their limbs cut off and some had their inner alchemy taken out.
Yuan Xiang occasionally heard of such people, because of different races, they often killed each other in order to survive. But Yuan Xiang had lived comfortably for so many years and could not understand this hatred. This little fox was her playmate in her childhood, crawling across the wall to share fruit. Yuan Xiang had feelings for him and it was impossible to give him to the “hunters” and let them peel and divide the body.Â
If they were hunting animals for food and clothing, she thought it would be normal. But if someone wanted to touch her pet that she had raised since childhood, it was absolutely impossible.
“The Taoist friend doesn’t want to open the burden. Is it because you are guilty?” Yun Xuan raised his arm to block her way, “In recent years, there have been many demons in the area from Jingxi to Ezhou that have caused harm to the world. A fox demon, after pursuing it so far, suddenly disappeared. If it wasn’t for the Taoist to hide it, what would be the explanation?”
After he said that sentence, the goshawk’s eyes on his shoulder lit up with yellow light, accompanied by a stern roar, spreading its wings in the air and its sharp claws grabbed the backpack on Yuan Xiang’s back.
Yuan Xiang was about to use a talisma but Nan He protected her. His eyes lit up with cold stars, one hand was behind him, only one arm was raised.
The flying goshawk screamed and fell to the ground, fluttering feathers. On the spot, it turned into a woman with brown wings and limped back behind Xuan Yun.
“Demon? He was a demon?!”
“What kind of demon? I can’t tell.”
“It doesn’t matter what kind of demon he is, let’s catch him.”
The Taoist of Dongxuan Sect were all looking calm.
