Demon King's Repayment - chapter 327

Yuan Xiang turned around to protect him. But there was a hand that stretched out from behind her and stopped her movement.

That hand did not belong to the human world, it was made up of Qi, but she stopped moving obediently.

What appeared next to her was Yu Yao’s soul.

The sound and appearance were exactly the same as Yuan Xiang remembered. No longer an icy stone statue covered with seaweed, he looked at Yuan Xiang with a light smile.

“Master?”

“It doesn’t matter.” Yu Yao said with a light smile, “That body had been completely transformed into a mountain. There is neither my soul nor the golden pill he wants in it. It is just a pile of stones with a little aura. Let him give up completely.”

In Master Miao’s vision, in the world constructed by Qi, the stone statue with a light Qi fell apart before his eyes. He seemed to see his only friend’s face split into several pieces before his eyes, Yu Yao’s forever gentle and calm expression remained in the broken rocks in the air, with a little compassion and sympathy.

“No, how come there is no golden pill?” Master Miao groped randomly on the ground with his left hand, “Yes, not in the incarnation, it must be in the body. Yes, it must be here on this mountain.”

He casted a spell that reached the sky and the earth, and searched down. However, no matter how frantically he dug, there would always be only a slight aura on the rock in front of him. It was not a spiritual body at all, and it was even more unlikely that there would be a golden pill left behind.

It turned out that after sealing the spiritual cave, Yu Yao had gradually and completely petrified his body in order to keep the promise that he would never come out. So, only a huge stone mountain was left there, except for the ray of consciousness beside Yuan Xiang.

Yuan Xiang looked at the crazy Master Miao, wondering if she should take the risk to stop him.

Yuan Xiang didn’t want the Qi in the world to completely disappear. But in the midst of such historical nodes that determined the future direction of mankind, she realized that she was like the divine prince who was once in a daze, and she was not sure whether her concept was absolutely correct.

“Don’t mind, maybe anything in this world shouldn’t be too absolute. There is always a thread left to be right.” Yu Yao said beside her, “Look, Sanjun didn’t make any moves.”

Yuan Xiang looked up, and she saw the boy standing not far behind Master Miao, looking down at his follower.

He watched in silence for a long while, finally sighed, gradually faded away, and disappeared without a trace in the world.

The crazy man soon dug through the mountain, and a ray of spirit spring gushed from the place he dug. The vigorous aura emerged from the cave like spring water, spreading joyfully along the hillside of the seabed. It gradually penetrated into the earth of the world.

Seen from a high place, a thin fountain of shining brilliance, and the glow of Qi, made the lifeless dark place radiant and magnificent.

Although only that thin touch of spiritual spring was far inferior to the glory that was once abundant with Qi, the world had retained a trace of Qi after all, and the future would have infinite possibilities.

Master Miao, who was on the edge of the spiritual spring, sat slumped on the ground, spring-like Qi filled his blood-stained body, and he looked down at his empty palm. At his feet, there were only a few stones that were broken by his own hands. Years of planning, once failed, the day when life was returned to zero was near.

The once master, the strongest person in the Taoist school, had fallen to that point.

It was not Yuan Xiang’s style to let go of powerful enemies.

“Let’s take the opportunity to get rid of this villain.”

Yu Yao shook his head slightly, “He hasn’t much time left.”

Such a remark couldn’t convince Yuan Xiang.

“Actually, I don’t hate Ah Miao.” Yu Yao looked at the human being sitting on the ridge, comforting his little apprentice, “I feel thankful to him. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be able to keep Ru Shi in this world. So at this moment, I really don’t know how I would have survived.”

“But…” Yuan Xiang looked at the master’s translucent spirit body. Her and her master’s world would be separated forever, and she would never be able to see him.

Without the body, the soul was ultimately helpless. What about her master’s future?

“…” Yu Yao whispered a few words in Yuan Xiang’s ear.

“Really?” Yuan Xiang was taken aback and jumped up with joy.

“Of course it is true. Am I as dull and ignorant as you think, and don’t know how to stay behind?” Yu Yao smiled, “I didn’t say it before, because I was not sure, since you came to see me specially, can I trouble you to do this?”

Yuan Xiang was full of joy, forgetting that Yu Yao was still an empty spirit body at the moment, and reached out to give him a big hug, but she passed through the master, and couldn’t stabilize her figure in the water.

A strong arm stretched out from the side and held her firmly.

Without Master Miao’s control, Nan He quickly eliminated the black dragon summoned from the hell painting and came to Yuan Xiang’s side.

Compared to Shiniang who was by her side every day, Yuan Xiang hadn’t seen her Master for many years, so she was embarrassed to speak up. But thinking that the next day of meeting might be far away, she had to hold back her shyness and push Nan He in front of her.

“Master…Master, this one is my…cough…”

What could she say? Her husband? They were not married yet. Her boyfriend? Her master may not understand that term. Her friend? How could it be the same?!

Yuan Xiang said in a hurry, “He is mine.”

Her face turned red, and she glanced at Nan He. His face was redder than hers, and the silver stars couldn’t cover the glow.

Yuan Xiang was not embarrassed, and took Nan He’s hand with a smile, “I wanted Master to meet him.”

“Sirius?” Yu Yao looked up and down at Nan He with a critical look, his son-in-law.

“Yes, yes. Hello, Master,” Nan He was so nervous that he had just lost the momentum of fighting the black dragon alone. He didn’t forget to add a sentence in a hurry, “I’m an adult.”

Yu Yao laughed, “I once told Xiang’er not to go there. At that time, she promised me that she would never provoke any demons in Sirius Mountain. Not only did she go there, she also took the Demon King to the house.”

Yuan Xiang was not afraid that Yu Yao would criticize her, she just laughed.

Yu Yao stretched out his hand and gently poked Yuan Xiang’s forehead. The black red fish hidden in Yuan Xiang’s left eye appeared. The red fish shook his head and waved away from its companion, swam toward Nan He, and plunged into his right eye.

“From now on, no matter where you are, you can use this array to split the space and summon each other to your side. This is your meeting ceremony gift.” After Yu Yao said that, his body gradually became more translucent, “I’m leaving now. Xiang’er, I’m looking forward to the day when I see you again.”
