abyss.
Nightmare City.
A girl in red walked through the streets like a ghost, and her sight finally stopped on the quiet dark red palace halfway up the mountain.
--call out!
The girl tapped her toes lightly, and in a few jumps she climbed up the mountainside and landed in front of the palace gate.
She looked at the barrier that enveloped the entire palace, a smile on her lips. She raised her fair little hand, opened her palm, and a grayish-white spiritual power spread out from her palm.
The next moment, the barrier covering the palace was silently corroded by the gray-white spiritual power, creating a gap that was large enough for one person to enter and exit freely.
The girl withdrew her hand, her expression not changing at all, even though she had broken into the Demon King's palace.
The girl looked at the gap in front of her, raised her foot and took a step forward. As her figure disappeared, the gap slowly healed, and the palace that had been empty for thousands of years fell into silence again.
…
Bafang City.
Bafang City is the closest city to Xiaoyao Sect and has always been protected by Xiaoyao Sect. So when Cheng Xiaoxiao and Lan Wangyou appeared in the city wearing the uniforms of Xiaoyao Sect disciples, the eyes of the people around them unconsciously fell on the two of them. They looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao and Lan Wangyou with a little awe in their eyes, and some children even had a hint of curiosity in their eyes.
Seeing that everyone was secretly looking at her, Cheng Xiaoxiao lowered her head to look at her clothes.
There was not a single stain on the light blue robe, the ancient silver-white pattern on the shoulders was intact, the belt around the waist was smooth and flat, and even the wide sleeves were not a bit messy.
So what are they looking at?
Cheng Xiaoxiao was full of doubts.
She turned her head to look at Lan Wangyou who was walking beside her, stretched out a finger, and gently poked Lan Wangyou. Seeing Lan Wangyou looking at her, Cheng Xiaoxiao tilted her head towards the crowd and said quietly, "Brother, they are all looking at me. Can you help me check if there is anything dirty on me?"
"Really?" Lan Wangyou glanced at the crowd, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Stop and let me help you take a look."
Cheng Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped and stood still.
Lan Wangyou leisurely hugged his upper arms, walked slowly around Cheng Xiaoxiao, and stopped right in front of her.
"How is it? How is it? Is there anything dirty?" Lan Wangyou had just stood still when he heard Cheng Xiaoxiao ask anxiously.
He looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao and nodded seriously, "Yeah."
Cheng Xiaoxiao saw him nod and looked down at the hem of her skirt. "Where is it?"
Lan Wangyou shook his head, "There's nothing dirty."
Cheng Xiaoxiao paused, then slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with murderous intent. She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, "Lan Wangyou, let's fight to the death!"
With a chuckle, Lan Wangyou couldn't help but let out a low laugh. He raised his hands above his head, "Junior Sister, I give up!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him and stormed off.
Lan Wangyou quickly followed and whispered in Cheng Xiaoxiao's ear, "Junior sister, they are not looking at you because of something you have, but because you are a disciple of Xiaoyao Sect."
"Hmph!" Cheng Xiaoxiao snorted coldly without even looking at Lan Wangyou.
Lan Wangyou's words continued to reach his ears, "Banfang City is closest to Xiaoyao Sect and has always been protected by Xiaoyao Sect. Therefore, the people in the city always show special respect to Xiaoyao Sect disciples."
"They all remember the contributions of generations of Xiaoyao Sect disciples to Bafang City, and we are willing to protect such a grateful group of people."
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked back at him, her lips parted slightly, "What about you?"
"What?" Lan Wangyou was confused.
"Senior Brother, who do you want to protect?" Cheng Xiaoxiao asked softly.
Lan Wangyou was stunned. She didn't expect Cheng Xiaoxiao to ask this question.
He said calmly, "My heart is small, and I can't care about so many people. I just want to protect my master who raised me since I was a child, Xiaoyao Sect, and..."
Lan Wangyou looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Cheng Xiaoxiao tilted her head to look at him, "Anything else?"
Lan Wangyou: "And you!"
…
abyss.
The Demon King's Palace.
The girl in red walked lightly into the hall, but suddenly her body froze and she stood there in a daze.
At the front of the dark red hall, there was a huge throne made of human bones. Sitting on the throne was a handsome man in a black robe.
The man's face was a little pale, and his eyes were staring at the girl, but there was no spirit in his eyes.
Seeing that the man didn't move for a long time, the girl carefully separated a bit of her mental power and probed the man on the throne.
The moment her mental power touched the man, the girl's heart finally relaxed a little.
Her gaze fell on the lifeless man on the throne, and a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes.
The girl slowly gathered her composure and tiptoed towards the man step by step.
She looked at the man's pale and bloodless face, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The next moment, a big knife surrounded by black evil spirit appeared out of thin air in her hand. The girl raised her arm and slashed the knife fiercely at the man sitting on the throne.
…
Bafang City.
"And you!"
Lan Wangyou's words suddenly rang in Cheng Xiaoxiao's ears.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, looking straight at Lan Wangyou, her mind full of thoughts.
And me?
What does this mean, senior brother?
Does he already consider me as family?
Lan Wangyou looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao who was lost in thought, his brows furrowed.
Just when he couldn't help but want to speak to remind Cheng Xiaoxiao to come back to her senses, a female voice like a silver bell suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Brother Wangyou?! You're back?"
Lan Wangyou looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a sweet-looking woman dressed in Qingxuan Sect clothing standing not far in front of him and Cheng Xiaoxiao, looking at him in surprise.
Lan Wangyou frowned subconsciously.
Who is this person?
When Yun Yao saw Lan Wangyou looking at her, she was delighted. She quickened her pace slightly and quickly came to Lan Wangyou.
At this time, Cheng Xiaoxiao also came back to her senses from her wild thoughts. She looked at the weak-looking woman in front of her and gave Lan Wangyou an expression of watching a good show.
At this moment, the gossip fire in her heart was burning fiercely.
Cheng Xiaoxiao: Oh my god! Eating melons online!!!
Yun Yao looked at Lan Wangyou, her eyes full of admiration almost overflowing. She clasped her fists and bowed to Lan Wangyou. Feeling his gaze linger on her, Yun Yao's cheeks quickly flushed. She spoke shyly, "Senior Brother Wangyou."
The two Qingxuan Sect disciples following behind her also followed Yun Yao in greeting, "Qingxuan Sect's Xu Jinyi and Wang Songshan greet fellow Daoist Xiaoyao Sect."
Lan Wangyou nodded slightly and introduced himself, "Xiaoyao Sect, Lan Wangyou."
Cheng Xiaoxiao followed closely and said, "Xiaoyao Sect, Cheng Xiaoxiao."
