During a break, I casually mentioned a time.
Surprisingly, Song Xiwei didn't haggle and agreed: "Okay! I will keep my promise during the agreed period!"
I got what I wanted through the gap, but for some reason, I felt a pang of sadness in my heart.
This period is not short.
What a huge variable his casual remark about ten thousand years could represent.
He wanted to tell Song Xiwei that even if she appeared before Aoqian ten thousand years later, Aoqian might not remember who she was.
The time requirement she mentioned to herself was completely unnecessary.
Besides, ten thousand years can really change a lot of things. How long have she and Aoqian known each other? How could they possibly withstand such a long period of time?
...
Even after Song Xiwei made a ten-thousand-year promise with Kongxi, she still couldn't help feeling sad.
But upon closer reflection, it only mentioned leaving Chidu and agreed not to meet with Aoqian, but didn't say that they couldn't contact each other.
Yes, it can transmit sound and allow for communication.
In that case, even if we don't meet, we'll know what the other is doing. In that case, even if ten thousand years seems like a long time, it's actually not so bad, right?
Song Xiwei comforted herself in this way.
Meanwhile, Aoqian and the Demon King are now undergoing a new round of trials.
"Are you sure you're leading the right way?" Along the way, Aoqian and the Demon King have already faced many life-or-death situations.
If the Demon King himself hadn't been involved, Aoqian would have truly believed that the other party had ulterior motives.
It's truly remarkable that the two of them survived.
One wave after another.
Just when we were about to reach the final step, a new hardship arose.
"This should be the final hurdle. This pool contains the ice tears of the demon race. After special refining, you need to soak in the pool for more than an incense stick's time before you can successfully approach the secret chamber inside. I know you don't like to be tainted by the scent of the demon race. How about I go see the painting myself and you don't have to go?"
"Are you dreaming?" Ao Qian glanced at the Demon King.
"Hey, Demon Lord, why are you using such vulgar language!"
"Besides this method, what other way is there to get through this!"
"How would I know that..."
"Fine, you go soak in the pool first." It was unclear whether Aoqian had given in.
The Demon King didn't say much. He was a demon, so soaking in the pool was just like taking a bath for him, and he didn't feel any discomfort.
When the time it takes for an incense stick to burn was almost up, Ao Qian saw that the Demon King was about to get up, so he suddenly leaped up and hung on the Demon King's back.
Demon King: "What are you doing! Get off me right now! Aren't you disgusting? I don't like being this close to others!"
"When you were a demon princess, you kept so many handsome men around. What are you pretending for!" Aoqian mocked coldly.
"I'm not a woman now, I'm a man!!" the Demon King angrily corrected Ao Qian.
Ao Qian said coldly, "You think I don't find you disgusting?"
"Then get down here!" The Demon King tried to throw Ao Qian off, but Ao Qian coldly replied, "If you move again, I'll break your neck, and then nobody will be able to see that painting!"
The Demon King had no choice but to carry Ao Qian forward on his back.
"I'm speechless. You're such a demon lord! I thought you were so principled! If you're so capable, why don't you go down and soak in the water?" The demon king, unwilling to give up, could only deliberately mock Aoqian.
Aoqian didn't take this to heart at all. "I promised her I would protect myself. If I put myself in danger for the sake of a moment of pride, wouldn't that be breaking my promise to her?"
"Shut up, I don't want to hear it!" The Demon King tried to plug his ears.
Once Aoqian started talking, he said, "She was so worried about me. Whenever she had a spare moment, she would ask me how things were going and if I was hurt. She was very clingy and considerate..."
Demon King: "Shut up! Be a decent human being, Demon Lord! Nobody wants to hear this. Please maintain your cold image and stop babbling on!"
