Demon King's Repayment - chapter 193

Yuan Xiang’s heart was filled with anger. It was the first time that she had truly been blackmailed.

At that moment, she was surrounded by hideous townspeople. These people were half-human, half-demon, with a human-like body but mixed with the characteristics of beasts, looking at herself greedily like Lu Junshou.

A group of enemies waited, but Yuan Xiang’s heart calmed down like never before.

She knew that she was not really alone. Nan He, Dushuo, Wu Yuan and Hu Qing, her beloved friends were secretly guarding herself not far away at that moment.

With their presence, her heart was exceptionally stable. No matter how difficult things were in front of her, she also had a confidence that could definitely overcome difficulties.

Lu Junshou thought that Yuan Xiang would be angry, afraid and embarrassed. But the 17-year-old girl in front of him smiled.

The morning sun shone right at that moment, hitting her delicate face, illuminating the bright red pendant on her neck. Her smile was like a splendid and arrogant flower suddenly blooming in the severe winter.

“Okay. It’s all up to you,” she smiled and said, her eyes were breathtakingly bright, and the solitary red on the snow-white neck was dazzling.

Obviously there were many people and there were traps he set up.

But there was an illusion of fear in Lu Junshou’s heart for no reason, a tingling feeling crawling across his skin, making him faintly afraid and irresistibly attracted to the girl in front of him.

The red fox pendant that dotted the girl’s neck was so bright that he could hardly remove his eyes.

In the past, Lu Junshou wanted only a human with pureblood to use her to infuse the town with fresh blood and continue the blessing of the God. His gentleness and kindness to Yuan Xiang were just means to achieve that goal. Until that moment, his heart seemed to have a desire to have this girl’s smile quietly, he wanted to follow her will, listen to her, make her happy, and smile at him.

No, it couldn’t be. Lu Junshou was alarmed. He raised his hand and ordered the heavy guards to surround the hostage on the altar.

“You have to do what I say. After the wedding, he will have a chance to survive!”

Compared with Lu Junshou’s unprovoked nervousness, the young girl just said calmly, “Okay.”

The girl’s tender and beautiful skin showed a pliable luster in the sun. Even if the face was reflected in the stone wall of the red bloodstone, it was true and beautiful. She was obviously so delicate and weak, facing a difficult predicament alone, but still confident and composed.

Was that the true form of human beings?

All the townspeople present couldn’t bear such thoughts in their hearts when looking at the girl who was facing the cold sword but had no fear and smiled like a flower.

When God began to gradually abandon them, that girl was probably the hope that God gave. She stood fearlessly in that town, which had been closed for hundreds of years, as if she had brought this idiosyncratic and absurd world for a century. There was a scorching truth.

The residents of the town began to move quickly, and all people, both men and women, put on beautiful clothes and squeezed into the courtyard. The red-light colored silk was hung up in the wing where Yuan Xiang lived.  A lot of things were brought up for her to choose from.

Yuan Xiang smiled and twisted a red veil drawn by gold threads, “This thing is used to cover men in the floating world, you have to follow our customs.”

Lu Junshou, who had been isolated from the world for hundreds of years, was stunned by her smile, and nodded repeatedly, “Yes, we can, all according to your customs.”

He pointed to the crowded crowd in the courtyard, and said tenderly, “Which man Xianger likes, you can choose for yourself, no one will force you.”

The previous night, Yuan Xiang cast the golden magic charm to break all the magic, causing all the soldiers to show their original form. Up to that moment, they have not recovered their handsome appearance.

At that moment, the candidates squeezed in the yard and mixed in the crowd were sphinx demons, humans with fins and bird wings at the same time, and men with heavy turtle shells on their backs.

They dressed up in accordance with local customs, wearing helmets made of demons and skulls, draped in brightly colored feathers, and wrapped in soft and fluffy furs, in order to attract Yuan Xiang’s eyes.

After all, getting a descendant of human blood was a good thing for every family. Selling human-like descendants to demons as servants almost meant that the entire family could receive long-term and large amounts of support.

Lu Junshou sucked his long tongue, with a little expectation in his heart. He used to mind his ugliness very much, and would never show his image on the cliffs of the red blood stone. But at that moment, everyone showed the prototype together, which gave him a sense of relief. Xiang’er didn’t show a disgusting expression when looking at him, and even smiled at him often. He felt that Yuan Xiang liked what he looked like.

If Xiang’er was so sensible and cute, then in the future, maybe he could consider not to force her so hard.

If she didn’t want to pick three princes every day, but occasionally just wanted to be with him, it was not impossible.

Yuan Xiang stood on the steps of the veranda in front of the wing, focusing on the weird half-humans half-demons in the courtyard.

Everyone was excited wherever they looked.

“Ah, she came over, choose me, choose me.”

“Choose me, little lady, choose me.”

The crowd was suddenly uproarious-

“Ah Xiang, just grab the person. Nan He is about to explode,” Wu Yuan muttered and whispered a report in Yuan Xiang’s mind.

Yuan Xiang really laughed at that time.

She stretched out her hand and squeezed a young man wearing a demon skeleton and long fur behind him up the steps.

The man’s figure was slender and tall, his skin was fair, and under his fierce helmet, only half of his exposed cheeks were stained with rosy, and his thin lips were pressed together tightly.

“It’s him.”

Yuan Xiang raised her hand and the red veil covered the man. She turned her head and blinked at Lu Junshou, and pushed the lucky one into the bedroom.

The doors of the wing rooms were closed, and the crowd in the courtyard outside the house was silent for a moment, and then became noisy again.

“Who is that lucky guy?”

“Whose child’s son was selected?”

“I don’t know, she put the veil on in one shot, it’s too late to tell.”

“Anyway, the people in our town will know when he comes out.”

“Hey, does it have a smell? It smells good.”

Nan He, who was sitting by the bed in the bedroom, pulled the veil on his head. His eyes were stained with anger, and he gritted his teeth, “I want to kill these people!”

Yuan Xiang held his hand, and she said softly in his ear, “Wait a moment, we will beat them to death together, let you be the first one now.”

“Well……”

Nan He had no time to speak, and his lips were sealed with a soft touch.

The mantle was drooping, the treasure tree was radiant, the extravagant and scented wing, the evil thief watching away, the urgency of the cliff side magnified the stimulation of the senses.

“Don’t bear it, make a little noise, we just have to pretend,” the girl bit his ear with a light pant.

She said pretending but deliberately bullied him.

Soon, a strong sweet scent filled the dim room.

The outside of the courtyard was completely quiet, and they all knew what that strong fragrance meant.

Not long after, Yuan Xiang opened the door of the house. Her hair was loose and her clothes were neat.

But the strong fragrance that could not be covered in that room silently expressed what had just happened in that room.
