Demon King's Repayment - chapter 190

Yuan Xiang closed her eyes, hugged Shi Jun’s small body tightly, and let the Pisces Array roll faster, pushed by the undulating tree canopy all the way, and rolled far into the distance.

It didn’t take long for the branches that were constantly drawn out to suddenly disappear, the canopy that was pushing them forward regained its calm, and the Pisces formation finally stopped. When Yuan Xiang released the formation and stood up, she saw smoke billowing from the other side of the mountain. 

She didn’t know what happened.

The young Shi Jun had already passed out as they collided and rolled all the way. Yuan Xiang stood alone in the cold and windy valley, looking at the smoke in the distance, she was a little at a loss as to how to move.

“Ah Xiang, Ah Xiang! Can you hear me? Ah Xiang?”

Nan He’s voice rang in her mind without warning.

Yuan Xiang’s eyes were wet in an instant.

For two lifetimes, Yuan Xiang always thought that her character was very strong. In the previous life without a father and with a cold mother, she learned to face and deal with anything by herself. In this life when she was abandoned by her family since she was a child, after her master left, she naturally took on the responsibility of protecting her master’s wife.

It was Yuan Xiang’s principle to protect and help her family and friends, and face all the difficulties she encounters. In fact, she never thought that there would be times when she would rely on and miss someone.

“I am here, Nan He. I need your help,” she said.

An indescribable emotion poured over the sky through the bond of mutual connection, and he didn’t even need to speak, Yuan Xiang had already experienced his overflowing happiness and gratitude, and the feeling of wanting to fly.

Yuan Xiang’s heart suddenly calmed down. There was nothing to be afraid of, so she could just go back to that town and fish Shi Fu out.

She straightened up again and clenched her fists.

If anyone stopped her, she would burn their trees and smash their village.

A gust of wind came from behind,

Yuan Xiang turned her head, and a figure she missed swept up the rock like the wind.

The man stepped on the stone, his silver hair was swaying, his chest was moving up and down, he was panting heavily, his bright eyes swayed slightly in his sockets, and he stared at her stubbornly.

Nan He called out softly in his heart and stretched out his hand toward Yuan Xiang,

Yuan Xiang caught his hand. His fingers were cold. When they touched Yuan Xiang’s fingertips, he clenched tightly and pulled her into his arms.

Those sturdy arms hugged Yuan Xiang’s body, and continued to increase the strength with a slight trembling,

“We finally found you,” Dushuo descended from the sky, retracted his wings, and landed in front of Yuan Xiang.

“Ah Xiang, woo woo woo, where did you go? I’ll pull you to death,” Wu Yuan plunged into Yuan Xiang’s arms.

The fox with nine tails appeared on the rock, jumped down quickly, turned into a human figure and held Yuan Xiang, “You scared us to death.” 

The friends reunited, crying and laughing excitedly. Yuan Xiang raised her head from the crowd.

“Let’s stay away first, it’s not safe here.” Yuan Xiang said, “Take this child, I need everyone’s help.” Nan He crouched down beside her, “I’ll carry you.”

His hair was messed up , sweat on his cheeks, and his chest was still slightly moving. In order to be the first to rush to her side, he ran like that, even faster than Dushuo flying in the sky.

Yuan Xiang remembered that before parting, she also rejected him, which made him sad, and couldn’t help feeling guilty, so she had to accept his kindness.

She laid on Nan He’s back, wrapped her arms around his neck, and pressed against his cheek. They could clearly hear each other’s vigorous heartbeats.

“I’m sorry, Nan He, for making you worry,” Yuan Xiang closed her eyes.

Nan He lowered his head and stopped for a while, “No, it’s my fault.”

(Ah Xiang, I was wrong.)

He turned into a silver-white Sirius.

(I was wrong, I used to think I could live alone even if you left, but now I realize how wrong I was.)

The reunited group quickly left Chishi Town and came to a hidden mountain to rest.

Yuan Xiang briefly recounted what happened to her in the past two days.

“Shi Fu fell into the enemy’s hand just to help you, we must find a way to get him out,” Dushuo said after listening, and it was unanimously approved by everyone.

Yuan Xiang glanced at Shi Jun, who was sober with his head lowered. She sat beside him, and held his hand soothingly, “Sorry, in order to help me, I put your brother in danger, we will find a way to rescue your brother.”

Shi Jun shook his head, “It’s not your fault. Brother has always been like that. He looks cold, but his heart is very warm. Whenever someone treated him a little bit good, he would always try to repay them. Besides, we ourselves wanted to follow you and leave the town.”

Yuan Xiang sighed in her heart. She once hated the half-humans in Chishi Town. Any race should not be generalized. Among them, there were selfish and insidious people like Lu Junshou, and there were such old-fashioned and warm-hearted people. She helped him casually in the colosseum, and he silently remembered it in his heart, desperately trying to repay herself.

The little tree spirit on the branch of the banyan tree lifted the skirt and fell onto Yuan Xiang’s shoulder, “I asked my fellow clan to take a look at it. The people from the town brought back a man with scars and tied him up under a huge penny tree, he is being tortured.”

Shi Jun’s face turned pale, and he stood up.

“You stay here and wait for our news,” Yuan Xiang pressed him back.

“No, only I am the most familiar with the roads of Chishi Town. I will take you back. At that time, my brother sacrificed much not only to help you, but to let me escape smoothly.” Shi Jun clenched his small fists and lowered his voice, “When I was very young, my father was sick in bed, and people often came to the house to bully us. Every time my brother used his vines to trap me and protect me under him. Now I am already old, and I have to protect him once.”

Yuan Xiang looked at him for a moment, “In that case, we will be divided into two groups, and I will go back from the front to stabilize Lu Junshou and those people. You lead Nan He and Dushuo, and sneak quietly. Enter the town and wait for my signal to act together.”

Nan He objected, “No, it is too dangerous for you.”

Yuan Xiang touched her nose, “Actually, I will be safest. They have plans for me, and they won’t harm me. I just need to delay the time, and when you start, I’ll activate the Pisces Array on time .”

Nan He frowned, “What plans do they have for you?”

“Didn’t I just say it? They took me back, just wanting me to…” Yuan Xiang felt a little guilty inexplicably, “They want me to marry a few more servants, so that I can leave the blood of the human race to them.”
