Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Zhaoyelin.

"Zhaoye Forest," Xuan Yi said, "It's full of bird monsters."

"Sparrows?" Biqing quickly glanced at Zhao Yelin. "Sparrows shouldn't eat bamboo, right?"

Xuan Yi: “…”

"Brother, is Fairy Biqing better?"

Biqing looked around and only heard Mo Jue's voice but did not see Mo Jue himself.

Xuan Yi raised his eyebrows, a cunning look appearing on his face: "Ajue, you can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever."

After saying this, he led his people and the confused Biqing into the pitch-black Zhaoye Forest.

In the night forest.

Several dead trees intertwined together to form a bed-like shape. The woman lying on her side in it was wearing a yellow-brown hairpin skirt, the tail of which flowed along the edge of the bed to the ground.

The woman waved the plain silk fan in her hand, and her extremely comfortable appearance was out of place in the dangerous demon world.

With her eyes half-open, the woman on the couch used her hand to twirl a strand of hair that hung in front of her: "Xuan Yi, long time no see."

She glanced at Biqing, who was standing next to Xuanyi, and her eyes widened. "You went to the heaven? How did you get there?"

"I saved her." Xuan Yi answered simply.

"Can you be so kind? I don't believe it."

Liuque sat up, looked at Biqing carefully, and said with a smile: "Little sister, don't let this evil wolf demon fool you. He is not a good person."

"So you don't want to receive a bad person like me."

Xuan Yi pretended to sigh, "I'll take Ah Jue away shortly and won't bother you any more."

Biqing has always wanted to ask Xuanyi: Where did Mo Jue go?

Ever since she followed Xuan Yi into Zhaoye Forest, she hasn't seen Mo Jue.

Too abnormal.

"No, no, no! I was just joking! It's been a long time since we last met, I miss you so much!"

Liu Que jumped up from the couch, frantically adjusting her clothes and hair, and asked, "Where's Mo Jue! Why can't I see him?!"

Having achieved his goal, Xuan Yi unhurriedly uttered two words: "Guess."

——

Mo Jue and the wolf demons followed a goose egg-sized bird demon to the backyard. He carefully selected a remote and hidden house to house the wolf cubs.

He had just taken a breath when a smell that made him want to avoid it wafted through the air.

The footsteps were getting closer, and Mo Jue's eyes were filled with panic. Without giving him time to think, he transformed into a wolf cub and blended in with the cubs.

"Lord Mo Jue..."

"Be quiet!"

Mo Jue had barely finished speaking when he heard the woman's exasperated voice: "Xuan Yi! You're lying to me! These are just a bunch of little wolf cubs! Where's Mo Jue?"

Mo Jue secretly thanked God that Liuque's sense of smell was not sensitive enough.

When I looked up, I saw my brother's malicious eyes.

Mo Jue choked and hurriedly squeezed next to a little wolf cub, resting his head on the little wolf cub's neck to hide his breath.

My brother might be up to something bad.

Biqing, who was following Xuan Yi, was very puzzled: Mo Jue and Xuan Yi both valued the little wolf cub very much.

Why did you disappear without even saying hello today?

"Xuan Yi, where is Master Mo Jue?" Bi Qing couldn't help but ask quietly.

"Xuan Yi! Give me back my Mo Jue!"

Liu Que wiped the nonexistent tears from the corners of her eyes. She leaned on Bi Qing's shoulder and cried, "I told you that this old monster Xuan Yi is not a good person! He never tells the truth. Stay away from him! Otherwise, he will eat you up one day!"

"Ryuque."

A vein bulged slightly on Xuan Yi's forehead. "You're not young anymore, why are you still so unstable? You don't look like a leader at all."

"I'm not young, but you're even older than me! Who says being a leader requires being steady?"

Liuque pursed his lips and said, "No one would come to Zhaoye Forest without a reason! Don't think I don't know. You came here so that your people can save their demonic energy and recuperate!"

"So what?"

Xuan Yi sneered: "If you have the guts, chase me away."

“I’m incompetent!”

Liu Que was so angry that she jumped up and down: "Xuan Yi! You bastard! Hurry up and find Mo Jue so I can hug him!"

Biqing was startled by Liuque's voice and turned her head slightly: It's a sparrow, chirping...

Mo Jue, who was hiding among the wolf cubs, froze and almost fainted.

He sighed silently: He must have held a grudge against me because of the teasing about my brother's love affair with a god or a demon that day.

I really messed up!

Xuan Yi grabbed Bi Qing's wrist and pulled her to his side: "Come with me to see if Ming Zhu and the others are in trouble."

When passing by Liuque, he whispered: "Ajue is in there. Whether you can find him depends on your ability."

Liuque's dissatisfaction instantly disappeared.

With a turn of her eyes, she picked up a little wolf cub from the ground. Regardless of the little wolf cub's struggle, she kissed the little wolf cub on the face: "Little darling, let sister kiss you!"

She just didn't believe that Mo would never show up if she was like this!

Even if he doesn't show up, I won't suffer any loss!

Liuque put down the one in her arms and picked up another one: "Come, come, come! Whoever sees it gets a share!"

The wolf cubs panicked: "Your Majesty! Sister Biqing! Sister Biqing! Master Mo Jue! Wuuuuuu!"

Biqing heard the cries of the wolf cubs and turned to go back, but Xuanyi stopped her and said, "There's Ah Jue."

Bi Qing stopped and said, "Master Mo Jue? I haven't seen him today!"

Xuan Yi said, "Ajue is inside. Don't worry, he knows what to do."

Biqing said "Oh" half-believingly, and followed him to take care of the wolf demon who had not yet recovered, looking back every few steps.

Liuque's actions not only scared the little wolf cubs, but also scared Mo Jue who was hiding among the wolf cubs.

Seeing Liuque kissing the little wolf cubs one by one, Mo Jue's heart beat faster and faster.

“…That’s enough!”

For the sake of his later years, Mo Jue took the initiative to transform into a human form and panted, "Liu Que! Stop it now!"

"Mo Jue!"

Liu Que opened her arms and pounced towards Mo Jue, but Mo Jue dodged sideways, leaving her empty-handed.

Mo Jue didn't even look at her. He lowered his head to comfort the frightened wolf cubs, and said with a hint of blame: "You scared them."

Liuque didn't take it seriously, raised her hand and tapped her chin, pretending to be coquettish: "I changed into a skirt with less fabric just for you!"

Mo Jue caught a glimpse of the yellow hairpin skirt that was almost open to the thighs, and looked away as if he was burned: "Are you crazy?"

"How can you be as bad as Xuan Yi?"

Liuque gave him a glare: "You don't know what's good for you! You wasted such a beautiful pair of eyes!"

Mo Jue waved his hand and cast a barrier over the room where the wolf cubs were, "Come out and talk."

Liuque followed him outside and said disdainfully, "I'm perfectly safe here. Do you really need to be so cautious?"

“If we weren’t careful, we wouldn’t be here today.”

"Careful, are you still carrying that God Clan?"

Liu Que tried to grab Mo Jue's hand, but was mercilessly swatted away halfway. She didn't get angry, but withdrew her hand and said, "You and Xuan Yi are both clueless."

"Liu Que." Mo Jue said sternly, "Why do you have to hang around me? There's no way we can be together."

"It's not you and me that's impossible." Liuque straightened his clothes. "You rejected me only because of your own body. I don't care, so why should you care?"

Mo Jue looked at Liu Que with a serious expression. After a moment of silence, he suddenly let out a self-deprecating laugh.

"I just care."

Mo Jue flicked his sleeves, and two pieces of talisman paper imbued with his demonic power covered the barrier: "So, there is absolutely no possibility between you and me."

Liu Que was furious with him and said insincerely, "Do you think I want to pester you? I'm just looking for a backer for our Zhaoye clan! You wolf demons are born to fight, and there are only many benefits to being with you! Do you understand?"

"Then go find my brother! Goodbye!"

Mo Jue impatiently ended their conversation, leaving Liu Que standing there alone.

Liu Que laughed in anger, and returned to her own residence with a belly full of resentment. Seeing Xuan Yi and Bi Qing standing in front of the door, she said angrily, "You stinky wolf demon who doesn't understand romance!"

"We really don't understand romance," Xuan Yi said. "Liu Que, I'll trouble you to take care of Bi Qing for the next few days. She and I are of different genders, so it's really inconvenient."

Liuque wanted to punch Shang Xuanyi a few times. She took Biqing's hand, led her into the house, and slammed the door.

Seeing Liuque's chest heaving violently, Biqing wanted to say something to comfort her. But remembering her status as a divine being and the demon world's attitude towards the heavens, Biqing chose to keep her mouth shut.

"Why are you so reserved?"

Liuque suppressed his anger, sat on the couch with Biqing, and asked, "Are you really from heaven?"

Biqing nodded.

"I remember your name is...Biqing, right?"

Liuque touched Biqing's gray fur coat, which was full of Xuan Yi's aura, and said enviously, "It's a wolf fur coat! Xuan Yi is so thoughtful!"

She took the water beside her and handed it to Biqing: "You must be thirsty after such a long journey. Drink some water to moisten your throat."

"Thank you for your kindness, young lady." Biqing declined, "I've already had some water."

Have you drunk?

Liuque blinked her grape-like eyes and asked, "Did you feel unwell after drinking it?"

Biqing shook her head. "I drank water that Xuanyi purified with his demonic power, so I'm fine."

She paused for a moment and added, "If I drink unpurified water, my skin will ulcerate."

Liuque's eyes gradually dimmed, and she sighed in frustration, "Even the Gods can't drink the water from the demon world. What are we going to do in the future..."

"Miss Liuque."

Bi Qing tentatively spoke, "I heard from Xuan Yi that the great war between immortals and demons 1,700 years ago caused the foul energy of the demon world to flood into the monster world, resulting in the current state."

"Indeed."

"Do you know... who was the immortal who split the barrier back then?"

"It's the Red Matsu Supreme God!"

Liu Que slapped the bed as she spoke, venting her anger. "She fought with the Demon Lord and implicated the demon world. Instead of finding a solution, she left us innocent people alone for 1,700 years!"

"The same goes for the Heaven Realm! A bunch of inactions! The first thing they did wasn't to fix the demon world's barrier, but to trick us into signing a contract!"

Liuque's temper flared as he spoke, "By the time we realized it, it was too late! It was too late to remedy the situation!"

She looked at Biqing with resentment, and when she met Biqing's clear and gentle eyes, the anger in her heart disappeared at once.

"It's inevitable that emotions get out of control, please don't be surprised."

Liuque patted the back of Biqing's hand: "These things have nothing to do with you. I won't implicate you because of the heaven."

Biqing forced a smile and said, "Xuan Yi also said that."

She was very grateful that Liuque was like Xuanyi and did not harbor hostility towards her just because she was a member of the God Clan.

But the current situation is far beyond what Biqing can bear.

"So we can be friends."

Liuque lay back on the couch, staring at the shriveled branches: "You don't know yet?"

Biqing tilted her head slightly: "Know what?"

Liuque patted the space beside him and motioned for Biqing to lie down over there. "The wolf demon clan doesn't easily accept outsiders."

Seeing that Biqing didn't move, Liuque smiled and pulled Biqing to lie down: "You are quite different in Xuanyi's heart."
