Before entering the Mirror Forest, Yan Xi thought it was dark, damp and foggy.
I never thought that the real Mirror Forest was full of vitality and shaded by green leaves, like a fantasy.
Yan Xi was a little fascinated. He had never seen such beautiful scenery.
Yan Ziyuan looked down at him and said, "Don't be fooled by their appearance. The Mirror Forest is filled with spiritual energy. Whether it's flowers, trees, mosquitoes, insects, snakes or ants, they have all become spirits. If you're not careful, they will become their food."
As soon as these words came out, Yan Xi shuddered all over, tightly grasping his arm, and looked around vigilantly, fearing that he would be eaten by the monsters that suddenly appeared. "Master Demon, you are the most powerful. They will definitely not touch your people."
"Oh? My people?" Yan Ziyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yours." Yan Xi looked at him with a lack of confidence, her big watery eyes staring at him all the time, "I have followed you, Lord Demon, for so long, doesn't it count?"
Seeing this, Yan Ziyuan curled his lips slightly, "Heh... count, of course not, but my people always stand in the front and lead the charge, they won't hide behind me and wait for me to protect them, so do you want to do that too?"
"I..." Yan Xi was speechless.
Yan Ziyuan pushed him away and sneered, "I knew that you guys are good at sweet talk to fool others, but your actual actions are completely useless."
"No!" Yan Xi hastily denied it. Quickly thinking of a solution, she carefully held his hand and squeezed out two tears. "I, what I mean is, I want to be your person, not your subordinate. If you want me to die, of course I can, because I can't die. At most, I will feel pain. But don't worry, for the sake of Lord Demon, even if I am very afraid of pain, I will stand up bravely."
Be my person...
Yan Ziyuan stared at the child with red eyes, lowered his eyes, and smiled, "Okay, you will stand in front of me later."
Yan Xi, who was pretending to cry, choked up instantly and looked at him stupidly.
No, shouldn't you comfort me instead?
Why don't you follow the routine?
"Haha, what? Are you deceiving me?" Yan Ziyuan sneered devilishly.
Yan Xi: “…” Okay, I get it, this guy is acting crazy again.
"No, I didn't lie to you, Master Demon. Please wait a moment, I'll go ahead." Yan Xi wiped away her tears, pulled him behind her, and used her small body to block him. "Master Demon, don't worry, I will protect you."
The child's expression without hesitation touched a chord in Yan Ziyuan's heart at that moment.
He was in a trance for a moment, grabbed Yan Xi's collar, held him in his arms, and walked with an expressionless face.
Yan Xi, whose body suddenly flew into the air, looked down at him in confusion, "Master Demon?"
Yan Ziyuan didn't say anything.
Yan Xi thought he was angry and felt distressed.
What's wrong with this guy? He's already like this, isn't he sincere enough?
"Master Demon, did I say something wrong?" Yan Xi hugged his neck tightly and asked closer.
Yan Ziyuan said indifferently: "No."
"I don't believe it. You didn't even look at me. And since I didn't say anything wrong, why are you so cold?" Yan Xi stared into his eyes.
Yan Ziyuan paused and suddenly raised his eyes, "Don't talk!"
His eyes were cold, and Yan Xi was so frightened that she quickly fell silent, not knowing what she had said to offend him.
Feeling depressed, he caught a glimpse of a huge creature out of the corner of his eye.
At that moment, he felt terrible and looked up stiffly.
It was a giant brown-black python with dark-green eyes, and its entire body was filled with a strong murderous aura.
His sticky gaze was fixed on the two of them.
Yan Xi swallowed, hugged Yan Ziyuan tightly, trembled, and dared not say a word.
Yan Ziyuan raised his hand and placed it on his back, signaling him to calm down. He stared at the python and whispered, "Don't be afraid."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Xi was surrounded by a circle of light.
Yan Ziyuan put him down and transformed into a sharp sword.
The python saw his movements, roared, and rushed over.
Yan Ziyuan said coldly, "You're looking for death."
After saying that, he flew up and started fighting with the python.
Yan Xi was inside the circle of light, looking up at the sky, wondering when the war would end. Suddenly, with a bang, a huge snake head fell in front of him. Yan Ziyuan was standing on it, holding a sword.
The speed was so fast that Yan Xi was dumbfounded.
Not only was the giant python's head chopped off, but its body was also torn into pieces and scattered all over the ground, staining the flowers, plants and trees in the area with blood.
The scene was very bloody.
When Yan Xi smelled the smell, he felt nauseous and vomited on the spot.
Yan Ziyuan came to his side at some point, calmly wiped the blood off his body with a handkerchief and threw it to him, "Wipe it clean."
Yan Xi received the handkerchief and vomited again when he saw the blood on it. He coughed and looked at him, "Master Demon, there is blood here. How are you? Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Hearing this, Yan Ziyuan was stunned and said with a straight face: "I am not so weak as to be this weak."
"I'm glad you're okay." Yan Xi cried with joy, "I just thought you were injured, Master Demon. I was so scared."
Looking at the crying child, Yan Ziyuan was stunned, "Are you so worried that I might get hurt?"
"Yeah." Yan Xi nodded hurriedly, tears glistening in his eyes.
Oh my god, there is no way Yan Ziyuan can’t handle a small python. He just wants to show his concern in time. In this way, Yan Ziyuan will definitely be very touched, and then he will increase his task progress, hehe.
