Chapter 37

"What exactly do you want?" Bai Long was furious and completely went berserk.

Mo Xiaoxin's playful expression suddenly vanished, and he stared at Bai Long's face, saying, "I'll kill you!"

Mo Xiaoxin tirelessly pushed the ice pillar further in, causing Bai Long to grimace in pain, his entire face contorted in agony.

Without delay, Shadow Mist unleashed a powerful palm strike at White Dragon.

After struggling for a moment, the white dragon became still.

"Very good!"

She finally solved the problem.

Looking back, Leng Huai and the Demon Staff were still in the vortex, shaking their heads and bodies, looking as if they were about to vomit.

The shadow mist reverted to its original form and drifted towards Leng Huai.

Mo Xiaoxin stopped her, saying, "Don't go over there, you'll get involved too!"

Shadow Mist said anxiously, "What should we do? Leng Huai has already fainted. If this drags on any longer, he will die!"

Mo Xiaoxin was just as anxious as he was; she was even more anxious than him.

The vortex did not stop because of the white dragon's death.

Mo Xiaoxin gritted her teeth and stubbornly rushed in.

As soon as she entered the whirlpool, she felt a violent tearing sensation, and she was forced to join the ranks of those shaking their heads. After adjusting for a while and regaining control of her body, she gritted her teeth and struggled to swim towards Leng Huai.

When Mo Xiaoxin grabbed Leng Huai's arm, she saw that Leng Huai's face had turned deathly pale.

Oh no, is he dead?

Oh no, oh no, oh no, what will happen to her if she dies?

She didn't care about anything else and quickly grabbed Leng Huai's hand, pulling him out of the vortex.

Shadow Mist caught Leng Huai and quickly took him up.

Mo Xiaoxin, however, could not escape this vortex.

The Demon Staff outside the vortex was anxious. It finally managed to break out of the vortex, but when it looked back, it found that Mo Xiaoxin had arrived.

It was frantic with worry. Now it and Mo Xiaoxin were the only ones underwater, and it had to rescue her!

It waited quietly, and when Mo Xiaoxin in the vortex turned to its side, it quickly extended one end and offered it to Mo Xiaoxin.

Mo Xiaoxin swiftly grabbed one end of the Demon God's Staff, which then used its full force to pull her out of the vortex.

The magic staff was exhausted after rescuing Mo Xiaoxin, so it slipped behind her to rest.

Mo Xiaoxin breathed a sigh of relief and swam towards the surface of the water.

After she swam to the surface, she found that her surroundings had undergone tremendous changes.

The original cliff was gone, and after swimming up, the pool also disappeared rapidly.

They were in an unfamiliar forest.

Leng Huai lay unconscious on the ground.

Behind the woods lurked a pack of hungry wolves, watching them intently.

Once the Demon Staff returned to land, it seemed to rule the land. It sprang out from behind Mo Xiaoxin and burst into flames, quickly surrounding them and forming a fire barrier. The wolves retreated upon seeing the flames.

Mo Xiaoxin ran up to Leng Huai and saw that Leng Huai's face was as pale as paper, even more bloodless than when she saw him in the water. His eyes were closed, his hair was wet and stuck to his face, and water droplets slid down his cheeks.

Mo Xiaoxin was tense and very nervous.

She held her breath and focused her mind, her hand trembling as she reached out to check Leng Huai's breath, but she couldn't feel a trace of his life.

My heart was pounding, and only two words echoed in my mind: I'm doomed!

She couldn't complete her mission, she couldn't go back, and she was going to stay in this godforsaken place for the rest of her life!

Fear instantly filled her face.

Both Shadow Mist and Demon Staff believed that Mo Xiaoxin was deeply in love with Leng Huai.

Shadow Mist felt very guilty: "It's all my fault. If only I could have brought him out sooner."

Mo Xiaoxin bit her lower lip, her eyes fixed on Leng Huai, and suddenly shouted, "No! He can't be dead! He can't possibly be dead!"

Mo Xiaoxin suddenly became agitated.

The shadow mist was startled, and it was also heartbroken. It had just recognized its master, but who knew that its master would die like this...

But seeing Mo Xiaoxin's reaction...

The master and his lover have such a deep affection for each other; Shadow Mist was deeply moved.

Mo Xiaoxin glanced at Shadow Mist, her eyes filled with a terrifying aura.

Shadow Mist was startled; this was completely different from the weak and timid Mo Xiaoxin it had seen in the cave before.

"Get out of the way!"

Shadow Mist slunk away to the side.

It stared wide-eyed as Mo Xiaoxin straddled Leng Huai. It was about to ask a question, but remembering the terrifying look in Mo Xiaoxin's eyes, it swallowed back the words that were on the tip of its tongue.

Mo Xiaoxin bent down, clasped her hands together, and pressed on Leng Huai's chest, once, twice... Large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead and dripped onto Leng Huai's clothes.

The Shadow Mist had never seen such a woman before. It shrank into a ball, revealing only its two eyes, looking both daring and afraid to look.

Are all women this terrifying?

Even after death, one must be tortured like this?

Mo Xiaoxin's next move shocked him even more.

Seeing that Leng Huai still had no reaction, Mo Xiaoxin mustered her courage, took a deep breath, and leaned down with trembling hands, gently pressing her lips to Leng Huai's lips and slowly blowing air.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment, and Mo Xiaoxin's heartbeat was exceptionally clear in the silent forest.

After an unknown amount of time, Leng Huai suddenly coughed violently and spat out several mouthfuls of water.

Leng Huai slowly opened his eyes, his gaze still filled with confusion and weakness.

When he saw the disheveled yet deeply concerned Mo Xiaoxin before him, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

However, what puzzled him even more was the way Mo Xiaoxin was kneeling on him!

Shameless!

Leng Huai's eyes were icy as he shoved Mo Xiaoxin away: "What are you doing!"

She was pushed to the ground by Leng Huai, her skirt almost hitting the flames. She cried out in pain and clutched her arm.

baffling!

She said irritably, "I should be asking you that! How could you treat your savior like this!"

Leng Huai looked at Mo Xiaoxin suspiciously, but her gaze seemed to tell a truth: "You said that what you were doing just now... was to save me?"

Mo Xiaoxin huffed, "Yeah, what else do you think I'm doing? Taking advantage of you?"

She rolled her eyes in annoyance, looking quite disdainful.

Leng Huai was still wondering when he saw Mo Xiaoxin's angry expression. His tone softened, and he touched his lips: "Then..."

Mo Xiaoxin muttered to herself, "I knew you guys had such outdated minds. I was giving you CPR! Don't worry, even if you lay naked in front of me, I wouldn't do anything to you!"

"..."

Leng Huai was taken aback.

Judging from her expression, she seems to dislike him quite a bit.

A strong sense of possessiveness welled up from the bottom of my heart.

She is his Demon Queen, how could she not be moved by him at all?

In a short period of time, Leng Huai's mood changed again and again.

Mo Xiaoxin ignored him, straightened her skirt, and said nonchalantly, "Don't feel guilty. We're just touching skin to skin, it's no big deal."

Leng Huai's face grew increasingly dark. What on earth was this woman saying? She had kissed him, so why was she so calm and indifferent? Did she do this kind of thing all the time?

His hands clenched involuntarily, his eyebrows furrowed, and he began to struggle with inner turmoil.

However, according to common sense, unmarried princesses in the demon realm are not allowed to have secret meetings with men outside the realm.

No, this princess is an exception. If she were truly so obedient and rule-abiding, she would never have traveled all the way to the Demon Realm.

Mo Xiaoxin has a keen sense of perception; she could feel Leng Huai's chilling aura even from a distance.

She glanced at Leng Huai strangely, then jumped in fright. Leng Huai was staring at her with the look one would give someone having an affair, as if she had done something to betray him.

What the heck?

Why are you suddenly looking at her with such a strange gaze?

Seeing Leng Huai wake up, Yingzi Wu was so moved that she burst into tears and rushed over to hug him, saying, "You're finally awake."

Leng Huai's vision was blocked by a cloud of fog, and his thoughts were also disrupted by the shadowy fog: "Don't do this."

Shadow Mist sobbed, "I was just too excited! I thought you were dead!"

Leng Huai was speechless.

The wolf pack had already wisely left the area.

Looking at this unfamiliar surroundings, Mo Xiaoxin felt somewhat lost and asked Leng Huai, "Where is this? Do you know?"

Leng Huai glanced at the dense forest, his brows furrowing slightly. He slowly said, "This is the edge of the Demon Realm. I never expected to arrive here in just one night."

Mo Xiaoxin raised an eyebrow. They had clearly fallen into the Ye family's cave, but after coming out, they found themselves on the edge of the Demon Realm. The white dragon's abilities were indeed amazing.

"Won't they suspect anything if we leave the Ye family without reason?" Mo Xiaoxin asked.

Leng Huai sneered: "We came uninvited in the first place."

Mo Xiaoxin: "That's true, but there is definitely something wrong with this cave. I'm not lying to you."

Leng Huai: "The Ye family has had problems for more than just a day or two. We need to investigate the specifics carefully. I will send someone to keep an eye on things."

Seeing that Leng Huai was at ease, Mo Xiaoxin felt relieved.

Leng Huai shrank the Shadow Mist and put it into his belt pouch to avoid others noticing it and causing unnecessary trouble.

The magic staff transformed into a hair ornament and disappeared into Mo Xiaoxin's hair.

Mo Xiaoxin followed Leng Huai back to the Demon Palace. After taking a bath, she was so tired that she lay down on the bed and fell fast asleep.

Leng Huai glanced at Mo Xiaoxin, who was sprawled out on the floor, and a smile appeared on his lips that he himself did not realize.

He glanced at the bedding on the floor where Mo Xiaoxin had slept before.

How could a dignified Demon Lord sleep on the ground?

She glanced sideways at Mo Xiaoxin, who was sleeping soundly.

Fine, sleeping here for one night isn't a bad idea.

It was past midnight when Mo Xiaoxin slowly woke up from her sleep.

Her voice was dry and hoarse: "Is anyone there? I need some water."

Ziyu, who was outside, noticed the commotion inside and went inside to order the servants to bring water to Mo Xiaoxin.

When Mo Xiaoxin saw Ziyu, she immediately thought of the cooking she needed to do.

Mo Xiaoxin: "What time is it now?"

Ziyu: "Noon."

Mo Xiaoxin exclaimed, "It's over, it's too late!"

Ziyu asked, puzzled, "What's too late?"

Mo Xiaoxin threw off the covers and got out of bed: "I'm too late to cook! If Leng Huai doesn't get to eat, they'll dock my pay again!"

"His Majesty has instructed that Your Highness may rest for one day."

Mo Xiaoxin asked suspiciously, "Would he be so kind as to give me a day off? He won't dock my pay, will he?"

"No," Ziyu replied succinctly.

If she had a recorder, Mo Xiaoxin would definitely record this conversation; otherwise, she would regret it later, and that would be terrible.

Forget it, if Leng Huai really deducts money, then so be it. She doesn't care about this little bit of money. Work and rest should be balanced. Otherwise, if he works himself to death, who will work for him?

My stomach is making rumbling noises.

Upon seeing this, Ziyu immediately ordered the servants to bring in the food.

Five meat dishes, five vegetable dishes, and one soup.

It smells so good it makes my mouth water.

Mo Xiaoxin's eyes widened in disbelief. Had Leng Huai undergone a sex change today?

Why are you suddenly being so nice to her? Could there be something fishy going on?

Could it be that he wanted to thank her for saving him?

Ziyu said, "His Majesty instructed that Your Highness should rest well today and may tell me if you need anything."

Mo Xiaoxin exclaimed in surprise, "He... he wouldn't be sick, would he?"

Ziyu's expression changed.

Mo Xiaoxin immediately waved his hand and said with a grin, "Oh, I was just joking, don't be so serious. I'm fine, Miss Ziyu, you should go and rest."

After Ziyu left, Mo Xiaoxin showed off all the delicious food on the table.

God knows, this was the first time she had eaten a meal cooked by someone else since Mu Xiaoxiao left.

That's so touching!

After finishing her meal, Mo Xiaoxin went to the garden to practice her newly acquired spells, but after several attempts, she failed.

The powerful feeling he had experienced in the Ice Prison Demon Pool had vanished, and his entire body felt as if he had lost all his magical power.

What's going on? Does it mean it has to be in water?

She didn't believe it and went to the lake in the garden.

Just as she was about to jump into the lake, she was pulled back by someone.

Ziyu frowned at her: "What is Your Highness trying to do?"

Mo Xiaoxin told Ziyu about the disappearance of her magic.

Ziyu was quite surprised by what Mo Xiaoxin encountered in the Ice Prison Demon Pool. However, she had practiced magic since childhood and had never encountered a situation where her magic disappeared.

Seeing that Ziyu didn't know either, Mo Xiaoxin was extremely anxious.

"I'll just go down to the lake for a little while, don't worry."

Under Ziyu's watchful gaze, Mo Xiaoxin jumped into the lake.

She tried to use magic in the lake, but nothing happened; instead, she choked on water.

Mo Xiaoxin felt lost and dejected, as if her soul had been lost.

"No, how did my magic power disappear? I have to go ask Leng Huai." In a panic, Mo Xiaoxin ran towards Leng Huai's main hall.

Ziyu: "Does Your Highness want to go in wet clothes?"
