Demon King's Repayment - chapter 239

Yuan Xiang snorted indifferently.

“So, you really entered the gate smoothly and got the Water Spirit Orb?” Yun Xuan’s eagerness for the Water Spirit Orb made him ignore her negligence, “How did you pass the gate…”

Halfway to what he was saying, a little tree spirit squeaked up to the table and held up her white and tender little finger to show Yuan Xiang, “Ah Xiang. My finger is injured, it hurts!”

Yuan Xiang held her hand to blow it for her, “Why are you so careless?”

She also deliberately recited the healing mantra twice and tore a veil to wrap it for her.

Yuan Xiang: “Ah, sorry, what did you just say?”

“I said dragon mountain…”

A clothed chicken ran over, carrying a plate of almond pastry in his hand.

“Thank you, Li Yu, are you helping Shiniang?”

The long-necked chicken nodded, and Yuan Xiang took a piece of almond pastry from the plate and handed it to him first.

The chicken still refused to go, stretching out his little finger.

“Me, you, Wu Yuan, and Sanlang, one for each, right?” Yuan Xiang put two pieces on his little palm again.

Li Yu was holding the two biscuits and ran away happily.

Yun Xuan was interrupted, so he almost forgot what he was going to say. 

“Why are you so good with the apostles? They are just demons, not of our race, their hearts are different. The strong are the robbers and the weak have to be humble.”

“They have flesh and blood, can talk, think, have good and evil, so how are they different from us?” Yuan Xiang put the snack in her hand on the table, poured a cup of tea for Yun Xuan, and also poured one for the person behind him, the apostle named Xueke, a glass.

“Ah, are you… giving this to me?” The slender girl showed an unexpected look.

Yuan Xiang gave her a snack.

Xueke looked at the fragrant almond pastry and was obviously moved, but her beautiful and smart eyes quietly glanced at her master.

“All right, all right,” Yun Xuan waved impatiently.

The apostle girl blinked happily, she bowed to Yuan Xiang, and sat with her tea and snack. She obviously didn’t remember the hatred of being thrown to the ground by Nan He a few times before.

Yun Xuan was inexplicably irritable. Every time in front of Yuan Xiang and her apostle, he would always be confused and lose his sense of measure.

“I mean, can you really consider these weird-looking demons as your own friends?”

Yuan Xiang looked at him, “I heard that you killed many demons.”

She gently touched a southern red pendant hanging on her neck with her fingers, and spoke slowly, “My hometown was a peaceful and comfortable small village. There were many harmless little demons in the village, living together with humans. They lived there earlier than humans. I grew up playing with them and I have never seen them harm humans wantonly.”

“But you entered the village, regardless of the reason, the age, all the demons young and old were killed in one swoop, killed on the spot, and even stripped and hung at the entrance of the village.”

“So what? It’s my responsibility to kill demons!” Yun Xuan raised his eyebrows and straightened his body.

Yuan Xiang’s masseter muscle moved. She called Hu Sanlang who had turned into a boy, hugged him on her lap, and pointed to him, “Such a child, you really have the heart to kill him, peel off his skin, and hang it to promote justice?”

Yun Xuan opened his mouth, “He…”

The little boy in front of him turned his head from Yuan Xiang’s arms with red eyes to look at him. He had the same look as a human, and would cry for mercy just like a human.

It was not that Yun Xuan had never killed such a young demon. Once on the battlefield, a little girl with red eyes and long ears fell down in front of his horse, pleading. At that time, his sword had also hesitated. The demon’s skin was like white snow, and her eyes shone like rubies. She looked so pitiful like she was a human. She was really like a young human girl, so he couldn’t kill her.

At that moment, a divine thunder fell from the sky, slicing the low-handed rabbit.

The master sat high above the array, and said, “They should be punished, never hesitate.”

At that time, the master’s scolding made him startled. He didn’t dare to defy his master’s order, and blankly raised his sword and rushed into the killing array with his brothers.

When people were in a group, they often lost their sense of self.

When everyone rushed forward with their swords, the act of killing must be to maintain justice. When everyone was saying the same thing, it seemed that the sentence must be the truth.

For the first time, what the Master said to him gave rise to a sense of violation in his heart that shouldn’t be felt.

Yuan Xiang kept saying, “This girl is your apostle, she must have been with you for many years, right? She is also a demon, if one day your master would kill her on the ground in front of your face, peel her skin, you would have no feeling. Do you think anyone who is not from our race could be killed?”

“Nonsense! Impudent! How can the master kill Xueke?” Yun Xuan slapped the table and stood up. Xueke, who was happily eating the snack, was startled.

It was impossible for others to touch Xueke. His elder would not…

But would the master really not?

The bottom of Yun Xuan’s heart was slightly shaken. His master hated all demons. If necessary, he would definitely kill any demon without mercy.

It seemed that in the future, Xueke should appear less in front of his master.

“Stop talking nonsense. You are trying to provoke our relationship with us.” Yun Xuan calmed down and sat back in his seat, “I’m here to ask you about the Water Dragon Orb.”
