Demon King's Repayment - chapter 313

The apprentice didn’t know why the master came back from the mountain gate and suddenly changed his attitude.

But he was raised by his master since he was a child, and he had long been accustomed to his master’s character. On the contrary, the older the master became, the more innocent he became. He didn’t understand the world, so he didn’t care about it.

He just asked, “Master, why didn’t the brothers come back with you?”

Qingyuan then remembered that he was only thinking about how to improve the contractual relationship with the apostles, and forgot his group of apprentices in Lianghe Town.

He touched his chin awkwardly and stopped talking, then led Yuan Xiang and the others through that area and walked toward the courtyard where the head of the house was.

Several disciples looked at him and got together to gossip.

“Master must have forgotten the others on the way again, right?”

“Who are those people who look like demons?”

“Can the demons walk in the world without restraint or shackles like this, wouldn’t it be dangerous?”

The youngest sister jumped up, pointing at one of the figures, “Ah, isn’t that Cheng Huang? The tallest one, with blond hair, look at the mark on his forehead.”

“It turns out that Cheng Huang’s figure is so handsome?” She hugged another female disciple, “Woah, this is the first time I see Cheng Huang’s figure.”

“That’s Ah Huang, I comb his hair every day.”

“Turns out Ah Huang is so handsome.”

“It’s been a long time since he came back, so should I stew beef soup for him at night?”

The suppressed screams of the girls came from behind. Cheng Huang glanced back and thought, ‘Stupid humans.’

How long had he stayed in this place? Was it more than ten years or decades? In his life span of tens of thousands of years, such time actually made no difference.

The noisy humans seemed to be very lively, but in fact, even the old man Qingyuan couldn’t live for many years. He would be annihilated into ashes in an instant.

Forget it, he was willing to unlock the chains, so it was not impossible to stay with him for a few years.

Yuan Xiang had been to Xianle Palace of Dongxuan Sect, where she saw Master Miao’s solitary courtyard with extraordinary style and elegance. Outside the courtyard was guarded by the incarnation of the sacred beasts of the square, and inside the courtyard was a pavilion with a strong array.

However, the courtyard where the head of Qingyi Sect lived was basically a rural vegetable garden.

A few lanes of vegetable fields, green fences, and branches of apricot blossoms came into the courtyard from outside the wall.

Sure enough, what kind of style the head teacher had, determined the behavior of the entire sect.

Yuan Xiang and others were led into a wooden house that could only be considered clean and tidy. After waiting for a while, an old lady who had just returned from the vegetable garden walked into the house, and washed her hands.

“Little Ah Yuan, it’s rare for you to bring a guest to see me. Is there anything?” The old lady sat down, and waved to the apprentice to serve tea.

“Head Sister, this little friend wants to find a way to Nanming. I specially brought her to ask you.”

Qingyuan told Yuan Xiang’s experience.

It was the first time Yuan Xiang saw a female head teacher in that world, or the first time she saw a human female in an important position. She could not help but have a lot of curiosity.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” The plainly dressed, gray-haired old lady said with a smile, “Because you think a woman shouldn’t be the head of a great sect like the Qingyi Sect?”

Yuan Xiang: “There is no such thing. In this era, most women have to live below men because they are not physically strong enough to compare with them. However, after cultivating, there is no obvious distinction between men and women. At this point, it is ridiculous to think so.”

The old lady laughed loudly, “That’s not bad. Your cultivation is not tacky at a young age, and you could have so many apostles. Ah Yuan must be too jealous to sleep. He is helping you so hard, what benefit did you promise him?”

“It’s nothing special, it’s just an array,” Yuan Xiang didn’t hesitate too much, and didn’t want to use that to threaten Qingyuan anymore. She pulled out Qi with her fingertips and made a small array.

Seeing what she did, Qingyuan almost jumped up after seeing it.

He circled the array that was hovering in the air for a few times. After watching for a long while, he still couldn’t make up his mind. He turned his head in a puzzled manner and asked his head, “Sister Qing Miu, this?”

Qing Miu narrowed her eyes, looked at it carefully for a long time, and said in doubt, “Your array is useless and has no ability to restrain demons.”

“Why is it useless? We can know each other’s location, emotions and state, and we can communicate with each other at any time.” Yuan Xiang looked at the head who held the Qing Sect, then turned to the person who wanted to learn it, “Does Senior Qingyuan feel it’s useless too?”

Qingyuan looked back at the numerous apostles sitting behind Yuan Xiang, remembering the way she was getting along with them. He rubbed his hands back and forth, and hesitatingly said to his senior sister, “Sister, there are fewer demons in this world, I …I don’t think we can get along well with demons that way. I want to try to be like Ah Xiang with them.”

The head was sitting on the wooden steps, her wrinkled fingers gently rubbed the tea cup in her hand, and she muttered after a long while, “Ah Yuan, Senior Sister’s life limit is approaching. And you still have a long way to go. Sooner or later, the Qingyi Sect will be in your hand. Make up your mind and figure out what path you want to take everyone on.”
