Demon King's Repayment - chapter 32

Demons were reckless and simple but they didn’t have the human’s right and wrong views and possessed the power of terror which often set off a bloody storm in the world.

As a result, many stories of killing demons and slayers have been passed down. In fact, it wasn’t always possible to tell who was right and who was wrong if one went into details of the root cause.

It could only be said that fragile humans didn’t want such a powerful existence to live in the same world as them. Perhaps in the dark, there was a heavenly cycle which caused the Qi of the human world to gradually thin so the humans and demons got separated peacefully.

“Because I made a lot of noise, I finally disturbed the passing Sir. He used his magical powers and sealed me in a jar. At the time, I was dissatisfied and argued with him. He persuaded me that as long as I’m willing to rest in this jar, after fifty years, he will let me out. If I still want to be with Li Lang, he won’t control it anymore.” Hui Teng touched her cloud-like beauty and youthful face, “I thought fifty years is just a matter of seconds, so I counted the blossoms and blooms fifty times with peace of mind.”

“So, were you planning to go back to find your Husband?” Yuan Xiang said.

“Of course, I miss him very much in my heart.” It looked as if Hui Teng had forgotten the “little” unhappiness between them and only missed the goodness in his heart.

Yuan Xiang glanced at her, but stopped talking. Fifty years of time may be just a short moment for the demons, but for humans it was basically most of their life.

Perhaps since their life span was too long, the memory of demons was often shallow and selective. Their concept of time was also very weak. When Yuan Xiang stayed in the yard for two years, Shi Shiran still often thought that she only arrived yesterday.

“So, do you still remember where you lived?”

Sure enough, Hui Teng was clueless.

“Oops, I don’t remember.” She thought for a moment in panic, “I only remember that there were two rivers that converge in that town. There was a Chenghuang Temple by the river. There was a golden gourd on the roof of the temple. “

“I know this place, it seems to be Lianghe Town, not far from here.” Yuan Xiang thought for a while, “If it is Lianghe Town, I can accompany you.”

Early in the morning of the second day, Yuan Xiang packed up and prepared to go to Lianghe Town adjacent to Queqiu Town.

A white dumpling limped to the door, “Does Xiao Nan want to go with us too?” Yuan Xiang bent over and squatted down.

The male’s low voice sounded and he only said one sentence, “You are not the opponent of this snake.”

Nan He’s voice was actually very nice but he rarely spoke so Yuan Xiang couldn’t associate such a cello-like voice with that furry little guy.

(Rein: Just say it’s sexy.)

What he said sounded simple and indifferent but he was actually not at ease with this snake demon.

Yuan Xiang caught the awkward concern from Nan He and happily softened the blue bag she used to go out, carried Xiao Nan He, and put him in.

Hui Teng turned into a small snake with the thickness of a finger and was wrapped in a small bamboo cage. In order to prevent her from violently hurting people, Yuan Xiang put a sealed talisman on the mouth of the cage and placed the bamboo cage in the basket.

When she said goodbye to Yun Niang, Yun Niang said in surprise: “Oh, where did the little snake come from? How can you bring this to Lianghe Town?”

Outside the gate, Yuan Xiang hurriedly lifted the cage where Hui Teng was located and asked quietly, “Are you not in the invisible form?”

“Why do you want me to hide my body?” Hui Teng raised a small snake head in the cage and opened six eyes at the same time, “You see I have turned to this, basically the same as a snake in this world. There is no need to be invisible anymore, right?”

“You aren’t allowed to show six eyes at the same time. No, no, one is not allowed, only two, left and right… Yes, that’s it. If you make three more eyes, I will cover the cage.”

…

There were a lot of carts and horses traveling between Queqiu and Lianghe Town. Yuan Xiang paid five large sums of money and boarded an ox cart that transported firewood.

There was heavy rain just last night. The temperature dropped sharply, the water stains on the ground had formed thin ice, and the wheels creaked. The trees on both sides of the road lost their leaves, leaving only bare trunks.

Sitting on the swaying ox cart and looking at the tree trunks that were speeding backwards, Yuan Xiang remembered the situation when she lay on her Shifu’s back as they walked along the green forest road to Queqiu Town.

“Ah, you said you met my Shifu fifty years ago?” Yuan Xiang discovered something wrong in this story, “What did my Shifu look like at that time?”

“Sir was an immortal-like character. Of course, his appearance was also first-class. He was like a star, like jade reflected like no other in the world and I cannot forget his appearance…” Yu Yao showed her admiration.

It turned out that Shifu was the same fifty years ago. Yuan Xiang was both surprised and filled with admiration in her heart. Perhaps Shifu had cultivated the unity of life and Tao, reaching the state of longevity, long-term vision, and full nature.

It was a pity that Shiniang was an ordinary person who couldn’t cultivate the Tao. Yuan Xiang thought about it carefully. Shiniang’s appearance hadn’t changed significantly over the years. The person surnamed Zhou who found them in the town a few days ago also said that Shiniang’s appearance was the same as she was 20 years ago.

The bullock cart swayed all the way to Lianghe Town.

Perhaps it was because the town had changed so much in the past fifty years that Hui Teng couldn’t find the luxurious house where she once lived.
