Demon World (Thirteen)

The sun was setting. Three hours had passed since noon, and Cuishao at the gate of the courtyard had already sighed several times.

Ever since Miss Sang entered, the soul-protecting formation in the main hall was activated and Su Xuan has not moved since.

A strand of his silver hair fell down, his profile was still handsome, his feathery eyelashes were half-closed to hide the emotion in his eyes, the aura around him was calm, and he looked exceptionally calm.

But he never let go of his hand that was placed on the stone table. The veins on the back of his hand were exposed. Cuishao even wondered if he would crush her hand bones.

The setting sun swept over Su Xuan's face, casting a statue-like outline on the ground.

Cuishao calculated the time and thought that the tea he had just added would get cold again, so she went forward to refill his cup with new tea.

Just like several times in the past three hours, Cui Shao called in a low voice: "My Lord, I am here to add more tea."

Su Xuan ignored her.

Cuishao sighed in her heart, and just as she touched the cold teacup, she saw a black shadow flash by.

His silver hair swirled in the air in beautiful arcs, and the wind blew the scent of grass and trees from his body.

Before Cui Shao could come to her senses, Su Xuan was no longer in front of her.

At the same time, Master Liu exclaimed in the hall: "Miss Sang!"

The door of the main hall was knocked open and Su Xuan almost fell in.

Cuishao's heart suddenly jumped, the teacup fell from her hand, and she hurried to follow.

As soon as I reached the main hall door, I heard Su Xuan's voice coming from inside: "Daidai!"

Cuishao was so frightened that her legs went weak and she held onto the door frame to look inside.

Su Xuan's black robe dragged on the floor tiles. The sunlight that came in from the door swept across the robe, reflecting a strange light against the intricate gold patterns embroidered on it. His silver hair was even more dazzling. He was obviously very handsome, but Cui Shao's heart was in her throat.

There was a person kneeling on the cushion in the center of the hall. He was wearing a blue shirt and her hair was done up by her in the morning. The exquisite hair accessories on his head were given to him by his master himself and asked her to put them on Miss Sang.

But now those eyes were tightly closed, his face was pale as snow, his hair was wet with sweat and stuck to his face, and he fell unconscious in Su Xuan's arms.

"Miss Sang... Miss Sang..."

"Dede!"

Su Xuan's face turned even paler, his hands couldn't stop shaking, and he desperately transported his spiritual power into Sang Dai's meridians.

Cui Shao heard that it is easy to lose the soul when reshaping the meridians, and anyone with a weak will is likely to get into trouble and face death, so Su Xuan deliberately dropped all his affairs for the day to stay with Sang Dai and arranged for Liu Lixue to heal Sang Dai in advance in preparation for the meridian reshaping.

Is it possible that... nothing can be changed?

Su Xuan called her in panic: "Daidai!"

He was so panicked that he didn't notice the person in his arms frowning.

"That... Lord..."

Liu Lixue stepped forward cautiously.

"Liu Lixue, quickly set up the soul-fixing formation!"

Su Xuanya had no time to pay attention to him. His eyes were red and his long eyelashes were wet. He used his spiritual power to try to keep Sang Dai alive.

Liu Lixue suppressed her laughter and whispered, "My Lord, Miss Sang has not left her soul. She is still watching you."

Su Xuan didn't react to what he was saying for a moment. Seeing that Liu Lixue didn't move and Sang Dai didn't respond, he became very panicked.

"Liu Lixue, I want you to--"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Su Xuan's frown relaxed as if he had realized what Liu Lixue had just said.

At this moment, a faint voice came from my arms: "Su Xuan, I want to sleep...but you're holding me so tightly that I can't breathe..."

Su Xuan lowered his head and saw that the person who had previously closed his eyes had slightly opened his eyes, and his eyes were a little blurred.

He called out subconsciously: "Daidai..."

"Su Xuan..." Sang Dai felt that it was difficult to breathe, but she was too sleepy. She used her last bit of consciousness to ask him:

"Stop... strangling me..."

Then fell asleep.

Cui Shao held back the tears that had yet to flow: "Ah?"

Su Xuan loosened his arms, and her head fell on his chest, with her cheek against his collarbone.

Liu Lixue almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and said jokingly, "My Lord, Miss Sang is just too tired. Her soul is still there. She just ran out of strength and fell towards me. How could I dare to hug Miss Sang? I was scared and called out subconsciously."

Su Xuan paused his hand that was clasped around Sang Dai's wrist, then turned it over to feel her pulse. Her soul was intact, and a faint spiritual power was flowing in the reshaped meridians.

I'm not soul-destroying, I'm just too tired.

Su Xuan's first reaction was not to be angry at Liu Lixue for screaming and causing him to misunderstand. Seeing that he had misunderstood, he did not immediately explain but just watched the show.

I wasn't embarrassed that Sandy saw my embarrassing look just now.

Instead, he hugged Sandy and rubbed her forehead with his cheek. A tear in his eye finally fell and hit Sandy's face.

Liu Lixue was also startled for a moment, realizing that the joke was a bit too much: "My Lord..."

"Dede."

Su Xuan held her tightly.

OK, OK.

He kept her again.

The main hall was quiet for a long time, so long that the soul-fixing formation was quietly closed, the instrument for reshaping the meridians was also closed by itself, and most of the incense sticks that could burn for a day in the incense burner had been used up. Su Xuan finally moved.

He carefully felt Sandy's pulses and confirmed that she was just unconscious and her breathing was stable. His heart finally settled down.

Su Xuan stood up, held Sang Dai in his arms, turned and walked towards the inner hall.

"Cui Shao, come here and help Dai Dai change her clothes."

Cui Shao, who had been waiting outside the main hall for a long time, bowed and said, "Yes, my lord."

This time Liu Lixue did not follow in and wiped the sweat off her face.

Fortunately, fortunately, his life was saved once again.

If Sang Dai really lost his soul, Su Xuan would definitely pluck out his peacock feathers and skin him alive. However, Su Xuan did not seem to be angry that he had just taken the initiative to play a little joke on him.

It seems that his temper has improved a lot since Miss Sang came.

Su Xuan came out very quickly, he was the only one there.

The black robe gave off a hunting sound as he walked, the wide hem of the robe trailed on the ground, and the feathers embroidered with gold thread fluttered as if alive.

Liu Lixue smiled at her Lord: "Lord."

Su Xuan ignored him and walked out in a hurry.

Seeing that he was walking so fast, Liu Lixue thought that he had something urgent to deal with, so she hurriedly followed him out of the main hall.

As soon as he walked out of the main hall, he asked: "My Lord, what do you want——"

Before he finished speaking, the person in front of him suddenly turned around and asked him with a smile: "You were laughing happily just now, weren't you?"

Liu Lixue smiled awkwardly: "My Lord... I was just joking with you..."

Su Xuan still had a smile on his face: "As a steward of the Demon Palace, I think you are too idle."

Liu Lixue's back stiffened, and she keenly sensed the meaning of Su Xuan's words.

Just now, Liu Lixue wanted to tease his master intentionally. Knowing that Sang Dai was awake, he still didn't tell Su Xuan at the first time. However, he didn't expect Su Xuan to be so panicked that he cried.

Liu Lixue's desire to survive was so strong that he opened his mouth to save the situation: "My Lord, I was wrong—"

"The Blood Demon Tower has been a bit restless lately. Since you are free, why don't you go take a look?"

Liu Lixue was horrified: "My Lord, I won't go!"

But it's too late.

Su Xuan stopped smiling, his jaw tightened, his eyes full of hostility: "Useless thing, Dai Dai is fine, why are you yelling!"

Liu Lixue's eyes blurred, a gust of wind blew, Su Xuan's face became blurred, and when she opened her eyes again, the Demon Palace was no longer in front of her.

Looking at the tall iron tower opposite, it was surrounded by a thick blood-red mist, which was eerie and terrifying. If you listened carefully, you could hear roars that were getting louder and louder.

Liu Lixue clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "My Lord!"

He hated this kind of place the most. The Blood Demon Tower was full of evil demons and demons that had committed crimes. There would be trouble every once in a while, and most of the time Su Xuan had to deal with it personally. Liu Lixue would often just wait outside for him to fight, because the demons in the Blood Demon Tower were too ferocious!

He looked very fierce, and he was really scared!

Su Xuan's voice came to my ears: "Since you are so restless and easily frightened, then go and practice your courage. This time you will destroy the Blood Demon Tower by yourself. If there is any demon who dares to be restless and try to escape from prison, then you can't come out."

Voice transmission is cut off.

Liu Lixue's fists hardened again.

What's the big deal? It's just that Sandy saw him like that!

He is Su Xuan’s brother who grew up with him!

Liu Lixue looked at the towering Blood Demon Tower in front of him, and cursed in his heart a certain fox who forgot his brothers for the sake of beauty. He cursed him several times in a row, then summoned a folding fan.

There is a secret switch inside the edge of the fan, and the entire fan bone is like a sharp blade. When not in use, it is a folding fan, and when in use, it becomes a high-level magic weapon.

After scolding a certain vixen who forgot his loyalty for the sake of a beautiful woman again, Liu Lixue calmed down a little. She took several deep breaths and tried to calm herself down.

He took three steps at a time and walked slowly towards the Blood Demon Tower. He just hoped that the demon this time would not be too scary. He really couldn't bear to see it or he would have nightmares!

***

The sky is full of stars tonight, and the windows of the main hall are not closed tightly. There are several osmanthus trees planted in the courtyard. It is the season when osmanthus flowers are in bloom. The evening breeze blows into the house, carrying a hint of osmanthus fragrance.

When Sandy woke up, she was warm all over.

I always had fatigue and pain in my meridians before, but now the dull pain seems to have been cleared by something.

Sang Dai turned her wrist and used her spiritual power. Her meridians had just been completely reshaped. Her half-broken golden elixir was only kept from completely breaking by the spiritual power left by Su Xuan, so she couldn't use any spiritual power at all.

But now, even though the golden elixir is still half broken, there is a faint spiritual power in her meridians, flowing through every meridian.

Even though it was very weak, he still had spiritual power. Unlike before, his meridians were broken, his golden elixir was half shattered, and he was like a useless person.

Sandy curled her lips and smiled softly. It was obvious that her current strength was not as strong as before, but as long as she had spiritual power, there was a little hope.

"woke up?"

The light voice echoed in the hall.

Sandy looked in the direction of the sound and realized that it came from the couch.

There was a person lying on a small couch, with a loose black robe hanging down on the floor tiles. His tall body seemed a bit too uncomfortable lying on the couch, as he couldn't stretch his legs and could only cross them on the armrests.

Sandy met those glassy eyes.

She was so excited that she didn't notice he was in the room.

Sang Dai sat up and smiled at Su Xuannuan: "Yeah, you're awake."

The voice was crisp. Su Xuan didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that Sandy was much more energetic.

She was more lively than the Sandy I had seen in the past hundred years, and there was a light in her eyes that I had never seen before.

Even though she was the eldest daughter of the Sword Sect, a rare heavenly spiritual root in the four realms, and the best in the way of swordsmanship, every time I saw her, she was always indifferent and dull. Although she was not very old, she seemed numb as if she had lived for thousands of years.

Su Xuan's Adam's apple rolled. He knew it was inappropriate, but he couldn't move his eyes away.

[Dade...]

Sandy smiled and nodded, "Su Xuan, thank you."

This is the first time I thank him in such a long time.

In fact, it was something I should have said a long time ago. Su Xuan sat up, clenched his hands on his knees, but his face remained cold: "I am not trying to save you, don't think too much."

Sandy knew that he was being stubborn, so she just smiled and agreed: "Yes, the demon king wanted to exchange me for his spiritual veins, but you still saved me. I will repay this favor."

Her smile was so beautiful that Su Xuan's heart was pounding and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.

But Sandy heard a hidden curse:

[Damn it…]

Sandy was stunned.

What's wrong? Did she say something wrong just now?

"Su Xuan, I just—"

【How can you be so beautiful? 】

Sandy: “…”

【I want to kiss. 】

Sandy: “…………”

[Don't humans always say that a life-saving favor should be repaid with one's own body? I have saved Dai Dai so many times, why don't you allow me to do it? ]

Sandy: “………………”

[No, I cannot sit and wait for death.]

Su Xuan stood up and suddenly walked towards her, kneeling on one knee beside the couch, pressing down on the quilt.

His body was broad, and when he covered the room, the light from the night pearl was completely blocked by him, and Sandy's front was completely dark.

"Su Xuan?"

"You want to repay my kindness, don't you?"

He leaned down and supported himself on either side of her.

Sandy clutched the quilt tightly, blinked blankly, and looked at him helplessly with her dark eyes, "Yes, but..."

"Then Miss Sang knows what I want?"

Sandy's throat felt dry.

Of course she knew, because her mind was full of Su Xuan's voice.

[So beautiful, so close, why do you want to kiss me so much? ]

[Her eyes are so beautiful, her eyelashes are so long and curly, and her skin is so white! ]

[How abominable! I really want to kiss you, but I have never kissed you before! ]

Sandy was a little surprised. What was he thinking about all day?

"Miss, do you know what I want?"

Not getting her answer, Su Xuan couldn't help it and moved closer.

[So close... Dai Dai smells so good, and her lips are so red...]

His eyes fell on her lips.

Sandy's red lips were slightly parted, revealing her teeth.

Su Xuan's Adam's apple rolled violently and his eyes became darker.

"Miss Sang, do you really know what I want?"

A warm touch touched her chin, and the fingertips were close to the corners of her lips. Sandy's breath was filled with their mixed body scents.

Su Xuan looked into her eyes and asked her:

"Miss, I want this, will you give it to me?"
