"Junhao, why are you afraid of her too?" This question puzzled Zi Muyu even more.
"Yu'er, this world is very mysterious, and Nangong Ziyan is that very mysterious being. You will know the details later." Qiu Junhao smiled. It wasn't that he didn't want to tell her, but there were some things that were better left unsaid.
"But Junhao, Miss Ziyan's cultivation level is too low. She doesn't even have the ability to protect herself. Is she unable to cultivate, or is there some other reason?" It has to be said that Zi Muyu is really observant; she even noticed this little detail.
"Yu'er, don't worry too much. Miss Ziyan is blessed with good fortune and is destined to have benefactors. Go to sleep! You've had a long day." Qiu Junhao helped Ziyu lie down, already having made up his mind. He, Qiu Junhao, would never forget those who had been kind to him. Perhaps this was fate! Nangong Ziyan was his savior. What you give, you will receive. He believed they would see each other often in the future.
"Haotian, why aren't you saying anything?" On the way back, Beiming Haotian was worried that Nangong Ziyan would feel uncomfortable, so he landed and the two walked back to meet up with Tian Haoze.
"Yan'er, Qiu Junhao is not an ordinary demon beast." Bei Ming Haotian went straight to the point, suddenly stopping and staring intently at Nangong Ziyan, his deep black eyes seeming to draw people in.
"Haotian, his wife said that he is also the child of a human and a demon beast. Because of his impure bloodline, he was driven out of the Dark Continent, which is how the couple met." Nangong Ziyan didn't understand what Beiming Haotian meant by Qiu Junhao not being an ordinary demon beast. Demon beasts do exist in this world. Some are half-human and half-beast, while others have various animalistic behaviors. When they cultivate to a certain level, they can all speak and have their own thoughts. Unlike magical beasts, which cannot transform or speak, divine beasts are rare and can transform and speak. In any case, Nangong Ziyan felt that this was a very chaotic world, leaving her dizzy.
"Are you tired? I'll take you to find a place to rest." Bei Ming Haotian thought it best not to tell her. Qiu Junhao's identity was definitely not ordinary. There were almost no demonic beasts that could live in the Netherworld Continent without being discovered by him, which showed that Qiu Junhao's cultivation was extremely high. Moreover, the woman named Zi Muyu's cultivation was also not low, but Yan'er just couldn't detect it.
"Hmm! You were better off not saying anything, because now that you've mentioned it, I'm sleepy." Nangong Ziyan yawned.
"Hey you two, if you're going to leave, at least give me a heads-up! Yan'er, you're the type who forgets your brother for the sake of beauty, and Haotian, you're the type who forgets your friends for the sake of beauty. You two only see each other and don't see me at all." Tian Haoze suddenly appeared behind them and said sourly, his tone full of undisguised resentment.
"Oh! Brother Haoze, so you're here? Who told you to be so clueless? You don't understand what a third wheel is, do you? Huh?" Nangong Ziyan looked at Tian Haoze slyly, actually trying to hide her apology. It seemed she had really forgotten about him.
"Hmm! I really don't understand those inhuman words you occasionally throw out, but I roughly understand what they mean." Tian Haoze looked at Bei Ming Haotian, then leaned close to Nangong Ziyan's ear and whispered, "Sister Yan'er, haven't you heard? The Old Man of the Moon will arrange things, it's a matter of helping others achieve their happiness. Seeing how hard you've worked to win Haotian's heart, and how much your brother has helped you, you can't be so ungrateful, okay?"
Even though Tian Haoze spoke softly, Bei Minghaotian could still hear him. His heart sank. Faced with Yan'er's sincere feelings, he really didn't want to avoid her, but he really didn't know what to do!
"Have you helped Ziyan? Brother Haoze, do you know how to date?" Nangong Ziyan suddenly raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Hurry up, if we dawdle any longer, it'll be dawn soon." Bei Ming Haotian looked at the two whispering lovers with jealousy, then put his arm around Nangong Ziyan and flew away.
"Hey! Haotian..." Tian Haoze looked helplessly at their backs. "Hmph! If you don't like Yan'er, I'll change my name to something else." Tian Haoze put his hands on his hips, muttered under his breath, and then flew off to follow them.
Luanying emerged from the shadows, utterly disbelieving what she saw and heard.
The Demon Lord actually took the initiative to hug a woman, and even fell in love with Nangong Ziyan. This was something that Beiming Haotian, who was always taciturn, would never do. Luanying bit her lower lip, staring intently in the direction they left, her heart filled with insane jealousy.
The next day, Nangong Ziyan was still woken up by hunger.
A blinding white light refracted through the window, making Nangong Ziyan squint. Where was she? Nangong Ziyan slowly got up and looked around. The room was ornately decorated and luxurious. Suddenly, she felt a dull pain in her abdomen. Could it be…? Nangong Ziyan felt like crying. This was what she hated most. In ancient times, without sanitary napkins, she was truly helpless.
After tidying everything up, Nangong Ziyan didn't want to go out at all because of her stomach pain. Her face was pale, and she leaned weakly against the soft couch, closing her eyes to rest.
Seeing that Nangong Ziyan hadn't come down for breakfast for a long time, Beiming Haotian became worried and decided to go to Nangong Ziyan's room to check on her.
Upon opening the door, one could see Nangong Ziyan leaning against a soft couch, her face pale and her expression pained.
Upon seeing this, Bei Ming Haotian hurried over and asked anxiously, "Yan'er, are you feeling unwell?"
Nangong Ziyan slightly opened her eyes. Her once bright phoenix eyes had lost their former luster, causing Beiming Haotian to feel a pang of heartache.
"Haotian, it's alright, Ziyan just needs a rest." Nangong Ziyan shifted uncomfortably. She hated this physical pain. In her previous life, she never experienced pain because having lived two lives, she wasn't worried about using sanitary napkins; she knew how to do most things herself. But this pain was something she couldn't get rid of.
"You still say you're fine? Look at you, pale and weak. You don't look like you're alright at all. I'll have Haoze go and invite a pharmacist over." Bei Ming Haotian frowned, impatient. He stood up and was about to leave, forgetting that Nangong Ziyan was a pharmacist.
"Haotian, don't go. Ziyan is really alright. As long as you stay here with me, she'll be fine in an hour or two." Nangong Ziyan weakly grabbed Beiming Haotian's arm, feeling somewhat helpless. If other pharmacists found out, she would be too ashamed to face anyone.
