Demon King's Repayment - chapter 288

When Dan Luo appeared, Yuan Xiang continued to talk to Qingyuan as usual, but actually turned sideways and stood in front of Dan Luo, secretly preparing for defense.

No matter what the Qingyi people’s attitude toward Dan Luo was, he was already her apostle. She would never let others hurt Dan Luo in front of her.

Before Qingyuan had time to express his attitude, the wolf descended from the sky after attracting the stars to control the water.

The powerful demon guarded Yuan Xiang’s side, the cold eyes squinted slightly, watching the unpopular Taoist in front of him vigilantly.

There was a sound of water, and the snake-tailed demon appeared on the rock, her long tail circled in half a circle, and surrounded Yuan Xiang protection area, with six eyes condescendingly staring at him.

Farther away, in the midst of the sky, the terrifying pupils of various demons looked through the rain.

They were all on guard to prevent them from hurting the woman who they had signed a contract with. There was a subtle weird feeling in Qingyuan’s heart, and he subconsciously touched his mount.

His mount was a sphinx demon called Cheng Huang.

Cheng Huang was fierce and bloodthirsty, and was a powerful apostle. At that moment, he was wearing a charmed muzzle in his mouth, his body was shackled, his four hoofs left black after image as he flew in the air with Qingyuan.

After Qingyuan got Cheng Huang, he was very happy. The powerful demon was extremely difficult to get, so he cherished the apostle very much. He collected all kinds of nutritious foods from time to time, and gave them to him with spiritual jade. He had been raising the demon for many years.

But he felt that if he was in danger, as long as he didn’t use the apostle contract, Cheng Huang would definitely not defend him, and he might even take the opportunity to bite himself.

“He is already your apostle, so it’s useless if I catch him. I won’t do anything to him anymore. What’s more, there is a water demon to help save people. I want the apostle, but I would not do that,” Qingyuan raised his hands, stepped back a little, and explained.

Because Nan He and Dushuo stopped their abilities, the flood water became turbulent in an instant, and the dike that had been in disrepair was immediately in danger, and the townspeople who were eager to take refuge on the mountain had not all escaped.

Several Masters of the Qingyi Sect immediately approached the edge of the cliff and began to recite the water retreat mantra neatly and uniformly, forming an array and casting spells to protect the dam. They were skillful in their movements, and in the clear sound of the bell, the sound of reading was loud and clear, they had obviously performed that array countless times.

At that time, the sky was still raining, everyone there, including Yuan Xiang, was soaked from head to toe.

These Taoist, who wore straw sandals and wrapped in mud, were almost indistinguishable from those refugees who had fled, which was the same for their master, if it wasn’t for him flying in front of her, she wouldn’t have recognized him.

The Taoists Yuan Xiang had seen before in the world liked to carry themselves in an aloof manner.

In other words, that was the first time Yuan Xiang had seen such an embarrassed Taoists.

Compared with those people in Xianle Palace who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and were always on the show, Yuan Xiang felt that these Taoists who were willing to walk among the people and relieve the dangers of the people were more pleasing to the eye, even if she almost had a fight with them not long ago.

With them taking over, Yuan Xiang’s pressure was much less. She brought the folding table for Dan Luo to rest, pulled him to sit down, and took care of the apostle who had not fully recovered.

“A Luo, rest, leave the rest to us. Your legs are not completely healed yet.”

It was a pity that they had just made a contract, and Yuan Xiang was not yet familiar with Dan Luo’s character. If she insisted on asking him to contribute to humanity at that time, he might resist and refuse to. But that made Yuan Xiang take care of him, and his companions didn’t mean to stop, so Dan Luo was rather upset.

As soon as Yuan Xiang was about to use the remaining Qi in her body, she heard a clatter behind her, turned her head and saw only a black fish tail flung in the muddy river water.

“Ah, Dan Luo, you have been working hard to help, you are really kind,” Yuan Xiang couldn’t help sighing. She stretched out her hand to Nan He beside her, “Xiao Nan, you worked hard too, take a rest.”

The power of the stars could overcome the abnormal changes of mountains and rivers, and was most suitable for water control, so he had never stopped from the beginning. His loss of  Qi was also the largest among all people. Yuan Xiang felt a little distressed for him, and subconsciously made this action to make Nan He smaller for her to hug.

Although he was really exhausted, in front of so many people, Nan He was a little embarrassed to jump into Yuan Xiang’s arms.

It was just that he had a kind of instinct, and he was wary of all the opposite sexes appearing in front of Yuan Xiang, especially human males who had a black history.

In order to declare his sovereignty, he quickly turned into a little wolf and occupied Yuan Xiang’s arms, turned his head back in demonstration and glanced at the group of Taoists.

Well, they were either old or ugly, no one should be able to compete with him.

Nan He was happy and wagged his tail at Yuan Xiang, relaxed his body under her caress, and quickly fell asleep.

Qingyuan couldn’t help it anymore, so he leaned over to Yuan Xiang’s side to ask for advice, “Little Taoist friend, I’m really curious. That fish demon was so unruly and rebellious, he would rather die than give in. How on earth did you tame him? How could you let him follow your orders like this?”

“I am not giving an order, I am asking him, I am asking him to do this for me.”

Yuan Xiang held Nan He in one hand, and used a talisman with one hand without chanting. She only used her fingers to move a little in the air, and the yellow talisman hovered in the air, transforming into a golden tent that fell at the foot of the mountain.

On the hillside, mud, water and rocks were constantly rolling down, and on the mountain path, the victims hurried to the mountain. The old men who were behind the team moved slowly and couldn’t avoid it. They had no time to raise their heads and shout in horror. An elderly woman raised her arm in front of her eyes, then as if a golden light flashed, she was bounced away when the rock slammed hard on her body but it did not cause any pain.

“You used the golden tent charm so skillfully. It is really rare at such an age,” Qingyuan brazenly was flattering Yuan Xiang.

But he was actually not interested in young geniuses at all. The only thing that could attract his huge attention was the apostle he had in his heart.

“But an apostle is an apostle. Whether you say it is an order or a request, it’s actually the same, isn’t it? They can’t refuse it.”

“It’s not the same,” Yuan Xiang looked at the sphinx, with a muzzle and shackles under Qingyuan’s seat, feeling that he was very cruel.

“For me, they are friends. As a demon, Dan Luo is not obligated to contribute to human disasters. I knew very well that he’d come to help for my sake. After the matter is over, I will thank him and all my friends for their help.”
