Demon King's Repayment - chapter 115

The flat square outside the gate was already in a mess, and one of the four stone statues standing at the four corners were destroyed. Hao Han squatted on top of another stone statue, a golden tiger’s tail was exposed behind him, and the dark red lines on his body were flowing. He was staring at Nan He in front of him with a little bloodthirsty excitement.

And Nan He, Yuan Xiang had never seen such Nan He.

Violent, ruthless, murderous, desperate.

He wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth with a grim expression, and was about to charge toward Hao Han.

“Xiao Nan!” Yuan Xiang stopped him in time.

“I’m fine, Nan He, I am alright.” Yuan Xiang ran down the steps outside the gate and ran toward Nan He, “I’m out.”

Then she fell into a hot embrace. A pair of strong arms wrapped around her.

“It’s fine, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, I came to pick you up,” Nan He whispered in her ear.

The arms that encircled her trembled slightly. He was scared himself, but told her not to be.

“Let’s make a contract, Ah Xiang. We’ll make it right away. That way, I can find you anytime.”

Yuan Xiang stretched out her hand to gently soothe his back, “Okay, we will form a contract right away. I finally know how to make an equal contract.”

Seeing Yuan Xiang and the others walking away, Hao Han squatted on the statue of White Tiger, with unfading golden light still burning in his eyes.

“It’s amazing. Lingguang God’s statue was ruined by him.” His eyes narrowed, “It didn’t work. It’s a pity. It’s not easy to find a Sirius now.”

“The little wolf who hasn’t finished the skeletal period. It won’t be glorious even if you win against him,” Du Shuo, who stood on the side, said.

Hao Han turned his head and looked at him up and down for a long time.

“How do I feel that you are a little different to this little girl?” Hao Han retracted his tail and claws, and turned back into a human form. 

“In the past, as long as there are things related to human beings, you have been indifferent. I could hear you just now, you were reminding her, reminding her to come out and stop her apostle before the Shifu gets angry, right?”

Du Shuo didn’t respond. He stood on the high steps facing the wind. His eyes seemingly falling on the row of roofs at the foot of the mountain. 

“Do you think that this human girl is special? There is a human who doesn’t want to take advantage of us. She dared to confront the headmaster for this. I was also taken aback by her words. Humans at this age are still innocent. When she grows up, she will change and soon she will be about the same as these people in Dongxuan Sect.”

Hao Dan didn’t need Du Shuo to respond, he seemed to be used to talking to himself, “I seem to hear the sound of a pipa again. It sounds so good, it could be heard from so far away.”

“Find an opportunity to persuade her.” His golden pupils followed Du Shuo’s sight and fell to the foot of the mountain, “That little fox, staying so close, is too dangerous. In case the master finds out, she will be done for.”

There was a soft sound of chain collision in the air.

Du Shuo closed his eyes and said after a while, “If I could persuade…”

Yuan Xiang and Nan He went hand in hand, walking on the way back.

Thinking of the scene just now, Yuan Xiang still had lingering fears.

“You were too impulsive. That place is the main school of Dongxuan Sect. Wu Yuan, didn’t you feel that I was safe?”

Between the apostle and their Master, they could each sense whether the other was in danger.

“I…I persuaded Nan Ge not to be impulsive. I said that I felt you were not in danger. He didn’t listen to me,” Wu Yuan whispered in Yuan Xiang’s ear. He glanced at Nan He with a guilty conscience hoping that Nan He would not expose him.

It was impossible for him to admit that when he couldn’t contact Yuan Xiang, he panicked immediately. He was more scared than anyone and kept jumping up and down, shouting, “Brother Nan, come on, hit it. We need to rush in and rescue Ah Xiang.”

“Fortunately, only a stone sculpture was damaged and they didn’t say anything. In case the roof was smashed through, we will have to pay a lot of money, haha,” Yuan Xiang joked, deliberately downplaying the horrible possibility of smashing Xianle Palace.

Nan He was riding a horse beside her without a word, expressionless. It seemed that it was not him who had just tried his best to hug Yuan Xiang.

She realized that he was not very happy, he was still afraid.

After stopping the horse, Yuan Xiang poked her head to coax Nan He, “We will make a contract when we return. You can always know if I am safe in the future.”

Nan He ran with his legs hitting his horse’s belly, leaving them far behind.

Even so, Yuan Xiang saw a smile on his lips in time.

She looked at the back of the person who was running far ahead, his waistline was tight, his legs were slender, and his riding and galloping movements looked noble.

She couldn’t help but remember the feeling of being held by that person. There was something warm in her chest  and it overflowed, like sweet-scented osmanthus sugar boiled in a pot, thick syrup overflowed all over the floor and the air was full of sweet fragrance.

It felt good to know that she was loved and cared for.

Always soaked in such warmth and happiness. Even the previous life’s sharp heart became soft without knowing it.

She could finally see her mother’s gentleness , who she had always resented from different angles in retrospect.

Yuan Xiang thanked God for giving her a chance to live again, so that she could meet so many lovely souls and be loved by them.

She also deeply loved them and the world.

In the palace, the headmaster was standing at the top of the world with his hands on his back, facing the mural in front of him.

The hall was empty and the disciples did not dare to enter without a call. The apostle hiding in the dark that feared and resented him would never take the initiative to show up.

The Array drawn with tea on the desk had disappeared as the water dried up and no longer appeared in his mind.

In his eyes, it should be said that in his sight, there was only the mural in front of him.

Characters and demons composed of strands of Qi clearly appeared in his mind. Without the restraint of walls, those lines were changing, like another living world in time and space.
