Gong Xi looked so serious about exchanging hostages that You You felt a pang of conscience for no reason. After a while, she sighed and pushed Feng Rong away slightly. Well, since she had already been exposed, there was nothing wrong with laying everything bare.

“Lord Gong, you’ve misunderstood,” You You said earnestly. “When I said they were my companions, I meant it. I was not held hostage by them.”

"What?" Gong Xi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously retorted, "But they are gods, you..." She stopped halfway through her sentence, and said with some disbelief, "Could you also be..." But she clearly did not have any divine power aura on her body.

“No, I am not a god.” Youyou shook her head.

"really……"

“But I’m not a demon either,” she continued. “I’m a human!”

"Humans? How is that possible!" Gong Xi couldn't believe it at all. "Humans are so fragile that they can't even be tainted by demonic energy. How could they possibly come to the Demon Realm?"

"..." That's true, but she seems different.

“Ayou…” Gong Xi looked at him with increasing worry, and glared at Feng Rong and Yuan Qi, saying, “Why do you have to hide it from me? No matter what, I will never let them hurt you.” She looked very serious, as if her face was saying: Ayou, blink if you’ve been kidnapped.

No, girl, I'm telling the truth, why don't you believe me?

“We are indeed not demons!” Youyou had no choice but to tell the whole story. “We came here to find something, but it’s not the Demon King’s Seal. We’re not interested in the power struggles in the Demon Realm, but we do need your help.” She subconsciously glanced at the bracelet on her wrist.

Gong Xi noticed her gaze and took off the bracelet, saying, "Is this what you're looking for?"

“That’s right,” You nodded. “This is one of the things we’re looking for.”

"So the reason you asked me for the bracelet in the first place was..." Gong Xi seemed to realize something, her face flushed red and then turned pale. After a moment, she shook her head in disbelief. "I don't believe it! If you didn't care about me, why did you risk your life to save me so many times?"

"Ah..." Youyou was stunned for a moment. What did he mean by "intended"?

“Ayou, stop denying it.” Gong Xi found it increasingly reasonable and continued, “The gods have always been arrogant, how could they possibly associate with humans? If you really are human, then what is your relationship with them?”

Feng Rong, standing nearby, couldn't help but interject, "What relationship?" He snorted coldly, his eyes darting around before revealing a wicked smile. He pulled You You into his arms, lowered his head, and kissed her slightly parted lips with a loud 'pop'. Then, with a smug look on his face, he said, "Understood?"

Youyou: "..." Don't cause trouble, will you?!

Gong Xi suddenly opened her eyes wide, pointed at the two of them with a trembling hand, and said in disbelief, "You...you..." A series of emotions flashed across her face: shock, shame, disbelief, and finally, anger filled her face. She looked at You You with a pained expression, "You, you actually...you actually have homosexual tendencies!"

"..." Huh?

"That's outrageous!" she exclaimed angrily, her eyes blazing with fury. She ripped the bracelet off her wrist as if afraid of catching something, threw it to the ground, and rubbed her hands together vigorously. "I really misjudged you!" she said, then turned and ran away, rushing into the Demon Palace.

Youyou: "..."

Feng Rong: "..."

Is the point about homosexuality? What kind of straight woman's thinking is this?

Also, she hadn't finished speaking!

Why is she increasingly confused by this development? Can someone explain it to her?

“Ahem…” Yuan Qi, who had been watching from the side, coughed and picked up the bracelet from the ground. He handed it to You You and reminded her, “Alright, Xiao You, no matter what, at least we have the ‘first’ volume.”

Youyou was completely dumbfounded, feeling utterly bewildered. She felt like something incredible had just happened, but she couldn't understand it at all!

"Let's go find the last volume first," Yuan Qi said.

You nodded, about to turn and enter the already opened demon palace, when suddenly a loud bang came from inside, like something crashing to the ground. Startled, the group quickly went inside.

As soon as she stepped into the Demon Palace, she felt the demonic energy surging all around her. Suddenly, a strong wind swept towards her, and she saw a familiar figure hurtling straight towards her. It was Gong Xi, who had rushed into the palace earlier.

No way, not again?!

Thinking back to the chaos just now, it seems to have started with picking up people. So... should she pick them up or not?

Just as Gong Xi was about to land, Feng Rong's footsteps came from behind.

For some inexplicable reason, her outstretched hand trembled, and she instantly withdrew it the moment the other person landed.

Thump!

Gong Xi fell directly to the ground...

Youyou: "..."

Gong Xi: "..."

“You…” Gong Xi looked at her in disbelief.

Girl, would you believe me if I said it wasn't intentional?

"Are you... alright?" Youyou reached out to help her again, but saw something formed from demonic energy around her waist suddenly dissipate.

Gong Xi was about to speak when she suddenly remembered something, her expression changed, and she quickly turned around. "Move aside, there's... Huh?" She stopped mid-sentence, staring blankly ahead, her face filled with shock. "...Gone?"

"It's you again? Why are you causing so much trouble?" Feng Rong also rushed over, glaring at Gong Xi with displeasure. She's supposed to be a Heavenly Demon, so why does she need someone to pick her up everywhere? Is she doing this on purpose?

Gong Xi glanced at him, then seemed to realize something, shuddered as if disgusted, and said urgently, "You damned homosexual, stay away from me!"
