Drunken Dream (Ten)

Always by his side.

After Sandy came to the demon world, she never thought that they would be separated.

The answer is clear.

She nodded and hugged the little fox's waist: "Okay."

"I will always be there for you."

Until the day she died.

In the old destiny, Su Xuan died because of her.

Now, Sandy finally had the chance to tell him:

Su Xuan, you should move forward and don't look back.

Even if she will die in the end, even if many people will die in the end, as long as he is alive, he cannot trap himself.

The little fox held the swordsman tightly in his arms, closed his eyes and hugged her, as if all the collapse and despair had disappeared into thin air.

"Daidai, my mother will be buried in the mausoleum tomorrow."

"Well, the time is set."

"You go with me."

"good."

Sandy rubbed the little fox's silver hair and said, "Go with the little fox."

The little fox buried itself in the swordsman's neck, and after calming down, it became the coquettish and childish little fox again.

"Go back and let me hug you again."

"good."

Jian Xiu is very good at coaxing people, and she is the only one who can coax the little fox.

Su Xuan stood up, took Sang Dai's hand, and took a last look at Wang Chuan.

It was so dark and oppressive that there was nothing left.

He asked: "Will my mother have a good afterlife?"

Sandy replied: "Yes."

She knew that Su Xuan had made arrangements in advance.

Fu You set up the reincarnation seal, Liu Ying's new life will be happy and perfect, and his immortal path will be smooth.

Maybe one day, they will meet in a new way.

Throughout one's life, one is always bound by fate.

Liu Lixue waited outside the Demon Palace. After night fell, she saw two people walking towards her hand in hand from a distance.

It was getting a little cold at night, and the swordsman was wearing a thin cloak. The young man in black next to him was still wearing his gorgeous clothes, with his silver hair half tied up and draped over his shoulders.

Liu Lixue's heart finally settled down. It turned out that Sandy disappeared because she went to the Wangchuan River.

With Sang Dai going, it seems that Su Xuan should be fine.

Liu Lixue went to meet him and said, "The ceremony is ready. We will enter the mausoleum at noon tomorrow."

Su Xuan responded: "Okay."

Sandy nodded to Liu Lixue and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Liu."

Watching the two people enter the demon palace, Liu Lixue looked up and sighed.

He is really tired these past two days and he needs to go back and have a rest.

***

It has been raining a lot in the demon world recently, but today is a rare day without rain.

There are not so many rules in the demon world. Even though today is the day when the demon king's mother will be buried in the mausoleum, you only need to dress simply.

Sandy only wore a plain hairpin and got up early in the morning to pack everything.

When I opened the door, Su Xuan was already standing outside.

He was dressed in black clothes. He had not worn such plain clothes since Su Xuan became the Demon King. Even his silver hair, which was half-tied up before, was now neatly tied up with a jade crown.

After seeing Sandy, he walked up and took Sandy's hand unconsciously.

"My mother will be buried in the mausoleum at noon. Liu Lixue is holding a memorial ceremony right now. Come with me to burn some incense."

"Yeah, okay."

After Su Xuan ascended the throne, he began to build a mausoleum for Liu Ying, not far from the Demon Palace. It was a very quiet and beautiful place with gurgling rivers and the chirping of insects.

The mausoleum was also built luxuriously. Liuying loved beauty, so Su Xuan placed countless precious jewelry and beautiful clothes in her mausoleum. Even the walls were made of the finest blue crystal bricks.

When Sandy arrived with him, there were quite a few people surrounding the mausoleum.

Most of them were dressed in plain clothes and were common people from the demon world.

The Demon King and the Demon Queen destroyed the royal family. Everyone knew that the Demon King's mother's body would be buried in the mausoleum today, and many people came to see her off.

Su Xuan and Sang Dai stood below, watching the ritual master from the demon world perform the ceremony before entering the mausoleum.

Sandy didn't know what the rules were, so she waited quietly beside Su Xuan.

At noon, Liu Lixue came from the side.

"My Lord, it's time to light incense."

"Um."

Su Xuan took Sang Dai's hand and went up to the high step, and the two stood side by side in front of the incense table.

The master of ceremonies lit the incense and passed it over, and the two of them took one each.

Sang Dai didn't know these rituals, so she could only imitate Su Xuan, bending and saluting several times, and then placing the incense sticks among the ashes when they were two-thirds burned.

She glanced at the tablet in front of her.

It did not engrave the royal family's name, but engraved——

My late mother was Liu Ying from the Liu family of Yuhua Peak.

It is the main family of Liuying.

The surroundings were very quiet. When the two incense sticks burned out, Liuying's body was placed in the mausoleum.

When the tomb was sealed, the people of the demon world knelt down in large numbers.

Sang Dai carefully looked back at Su Xuan. There was nothing unusual about his expression. He was very calm, with peaceful eyes. He did not lose his composure at all until the end of the tomb sealing ceremony.

When the crowd dispersed, it was already afternoon.

Liu Lixue originally wanted to step forward to persuade her master, but when she walked in front of Su Xuan, she found that he did not have any other expression.

Didn't cry, didn't lose control, and was very quiet the whole time.

Sandy hesitated, not knowing whether to speak.

Su Xuan suddenly took the initiative to speak: "Daidai, Liu Lixue, you two should leave first."

Liu Lixue: "...My Lord."

Sandy was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

She turned around and signaled to Liu Lixue, who sighed inwardly, but eventually left with Sandy.

The little fox stood quietly in front of the mausoleum.

***

Liu Lixue left to take care of some trivial matters left by the royal family, and Sandy has been sitting in the courtyard of the main hall since she returned.

Cui Shao came to ask her: "Madam, do you need to sleep for a while?"

Sandy shook her head: "No, I'm not sleepy either."

She sat here, Cuishao came to refill the tea several times, and Sandy drank cup after cup.

It was not until a few hours later that Cui Shao could not help asking, "Is Madam waiting for someone?"

Sandy admitted: "Yes, I am waiting for someone"

She is waiting for someone, someone who might be in a bad mood.

I hope he comes back and someone can comfort him.

After the last ray of light in the sky disappeared and darkness came, the person I was waiting for finally showed up.

Su Xuan, who had returned late, walked into the courtyard carrying something and met Sang Dai's eyes as she sat at the stone table.

Sandy seemed to have been sitting for a long time, with a layer of fallen leaves on her shoulders. Although she looked expressionless, he could see the tension in her eyes at a glance.

She was worried about him.

She seemed afraid that he would cry.

The little fox chuckled and came to her with something in his hand.

There was something wrapped in oil paper on the table. Sandy smelled the scent of osmanthus, so it must be osmanthus cake.

There is also a jug of wine.

She was a little confused: "This is..."

Su Xuan sat down beside her and unwrapped the oil paper: "I bought it for you."

"……ah?"

Su Xuan said: "I didn't buy the wine for you, I just wanted to drink it. I know you don't drink. I bought the osmanthus cake for you."

Sandy had no idea how he bought all these things on the way back. She thought Su Xuan would be very sad and would cry after she left, but now she saw that he seemed to be fine.

"Su Xuan, why do you want to buy osmanthus cake?"

The little fox untied the rope that bound the oil paper and replied, "My mother asked me to buy it for you."

Sandy: “…What do you mean?”

Su Xuan looked at her, with a smile in his eyes: "Daidai, I dreamed of my mother last night."

Sandy responded softly: "Are you dreaming?"

"Yeah." Su Xuan said, "I have never dreamed of her in these years, but when I fell asleep last night, I dreamed of my mother for the first time."

Under the moonlight, the little fox smiled happily: "I told her that I missed her very much. Mother said that it was shameful for me to act like a spoiled child at such an age."

Sandy smiled and curled her eyes.

Su Xuan's voice softened: "I talked a lot. I told her about my experiences over the years, how I became the demon king, and my mother said that Xiao Xuan is very powerful."

"I said I was sorry for not protecting her. My mother said she never regretted giving birth to me. I was the best gift God gave her."

The little fox's eyes softened slightly, but he still smiled and said, "I also said that I have a girl I like very much. I want to marry her and make her my queen, and stay with her for the rest of my life."

Sandy pursed her red lips, and her heart suddenly felt a little nervous.

"She said, who told me to go there and I deserved a beating? Now it's hard to find a wife, but my mother gave me some advice."

Sandy asked in a low voice: "What did Madam Liu say?"

Her eyebrows and outlines were all in his eyes. She was the person he had been thinking about for so many years. Perhaps even Sang Dai herself could not guess how much Su Xuan liked her.

What did Liuying say?

Liu Ying said: "Xiao Xuan can always impress girls with his sincerity. If you are very good to her now, then you should be 120% good to her. If that's not enough, then 20%. Keep giving her love that exceeds your limits. Water dripping wears away a stone. You will eventually succeed."

Su Xuan conveyed Liu Ying's words to Sang Dai word for word.

Sandy opened her mouth slightly, looking confused.

Su Xuan drank a glass of wine, and the alcohol gave him great courage.

"I said again, this girl is a little slow-witted. She grew up alone, is very fierce and strong in fighting, and is a person with awakened spiritual roots at the heaven level, but she has no one to accompany her. No one has ever taught her what love is."

Liu Ying said, "It doesn't matter. Both husband and wife can't be too shrewd. Our little Xuan is more cunning, so the girl can be a little dull. No one has taught her, so you can use your actions to show her how to show love. Don't rely on words, rely on actions."

Su Xuan drank another glass of wine and continued, "I also said that the Heavenly Dao wanted to kill her. I was actually scared to death. I was afraid that she would die, and I was also afraid that I could not protect her."

Liu Ying said: "Man can conquer nature. The girl is also very strong. You have to trust her. She can protect herself. Mother will also bless you in heaven."

Su Xuan drank one cup after another and said with a smile: "I also said that I have never loved a girl so much in my life. I like her so much. She is far more important than my life. She is more important than everything."

Liu Ying said: "Mother also likes her very much. Because of that girl, our Xiao Xuan has someone he wants to protect and has become stronger."

Su Xuan was a little drunk. He couldn't drink much and drank several glasses of wine.

The little fox's face was very red, and his eyes were bloodshot and faintly fluorescent.

He looked at Sandy and said, "I said, Mother, I have found my own way. I want to stay with her all my life. I have only one heart, and Sandy also has only one. I will only love her and follow her."

Liu Ying said, "Then go find her, Xiao Xuan. After you put your mother in the mausoleum tomorrow, forget about all these things. Don't be sad. Go find her right away and tell her how much you like her. Our Xiao Xuan likes her very much."

When he said this, Liu Ying covered her mouth and laughed secretly, her eyes bright and lively: "Oh, by the way, don't go empty-handed, what does a little girl like the most...jewelry, jewelry, some are too vulgar, you have to prepare something thoughtful."

Su Xuan in the dream replied: "She likes osmanthus cake, she likes to eat that."

Liu Ying clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Then go find her with a bag of osmanthus cake and tell her how much you like her."

Su Xuan coughed softly and put down the bottle of wine in his hand.

This wine is too strong.

Su Xuan sighed lightly, and smiled with the corners of his lips curved: "Then, my mother stood up, touched my head, and told me..."

"Xiao Xuan, our relationship as mother and son ends here. From now on, she will be the one to accompany you on the next journey."

"You must hold her hand tightly, day in and day out, for a long time, until the end of your life."

"Drink some wine, get drunk, forget all the suffering, do what you want to do, and then find a new path. Go find her tonight, put aside everything, and go see the person you want to see."

Sandy's heart was beating so fast that she felt like she was suffocating.

She looked at the osmanthus cake in front of her, which was still steaming and seemed to have just come out of the pot.

The little fox drank too much, and being slightly tipsy gave him the courage to take a gamble and say these words.

Don't worry about a sword repairman's temperament or whether she will get angry and ignore him.

That's what he wanted to say.

The little fox pushed the cake over and said, "My mother asked me to buy this for you, Dai Dai. This is a token of my love."

Sandy's throat felt like something was stuck in it, and she was having difficulty breathing.

She looked at Su Xuan blankly.

The little fox held up his chin, tears streaming down his nose and splashing onto the table.

"Daidai, that's really what my mother would say. I was thinking about it in front of her mausoleum this afternoon. Would she say that? Would it be the same as what I dreamed of?"

But the final answer is——

Can.

Liuying loves him too much, and will also love the people he loves.

Liuying is very gentle and will never blame him.

Liuying is his mother. She hopes that her child can find the right path and have someone to walk shoulder to shoulder with him.

"I think that was a dream my mother had. She was worried that I was trapped inside and couldn't get out. She, like you, hoped that I would not look back and would keep moving forward."

The little fox was smiling, but he was crying. "So I came here. The method my mother told me was to come to see you. I should forget everything and just come to see you."

He straightened up and drank another glass of wine.

The wine bottle was placed on the table, making a crisp sound.

Su Xuan looked at Sang Dai and said, "Dai Dai, I like you."

Sandy's mind went blank.

The hands on the thighs were clenched tightly, and the nails dug into the palms, leaving several crescent marks.

She didn't hear Su Xuan's thoughts.

"Su Xuan..."

Su Xuan said: "I like you, I like you so much, I like you very much."

It was the first time that Sandy faced Su Xuan who was so straightforward and serious. He did not speak in a casual or joking tone, but spoke to her seriously and solemnly.

The two of them sat too close, his long legs slightly apart were touching her side, and Sandy could feel his burning body temperature.

Sang Dai knew that Su Xuan liked her, and he had said it in his heart countless times.

Su Xuan was even willing to give her his life, his love for her was so strong that she could hardly bear it.

What are Sandy's feelings towards him?

In the past, they were mortal enemies. In her view, Su Xuan would always come to pick a fight with her. On the one hand, she admired the high level of cultivation of this mortal enemy, but on the other hand, she was annoyed that he always came to the Sword Sect.

Now they were partners, the most trusted companions. She could give him her life, but could she give him her heart?

Sang Dai knew clearly that her feelings for Su Xuan were far inferior to Su Xuan's feelings for her.

She is too protective of herself, so she won't open her heart easily, and she is too slow to understand how far her love goes.

Sang Dai couldn't bear to lie to him: "Su Xuan, I... I don't like you as much as you do..."

The little fox chuckled and said drunkenly, "I know, I know everything."

"...Will you still like me even though I'm like this?"

"Daidai." The little fox held up his chin and looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness: "Perhaps until death, you will never like you as much as I do."

His love can break his own limits again and again.

Just like Liuying told him, treat her with all your love.

Sandy added, “I’m actually quite boring.”

"No, Dai Dai is the most interesting person in the world." Su Xuan said seriously, "I feel happy when I see her. Everything she does is very cute in my eyes."

"It's dangerous to be around me."

"I will always be by your side, no matter what happens."

“There’s a lot I need to do.”

"I will also walk with you, holding your hand, until the end of my life."

Sang Dai's heart was beating very fast, and she didn't know if it was because she was a little cold, or because she was also influenced by Su Xuan's alcohol.

In short, my heart was pounding like thunder.

She looked at Su Xuan and almost drowned in his gaze.

The little fox was drunk, and his words were straightforward and gentle: "Daidai, I like you very very very much. I like you so much."

He really likes her.

Sandy closed her eyes and suddenly took a deep breath.

She picked up the half-drunk bottle of wine that Su Xuan had drunk, and before Su Xuan could react, she drank it all in one gulp.

The wine flowed down her chin, and Sandy drank the whole bottle with a frown. She put down the bottle, breathing rapidly, and her cheeks gradually turned red.

She could drink even less than Su Xuan, so now they were the only ones who were drunk.

"Dade..."

Sandy asked, "What was the last thing Mrs. Liu said to you?"

Su Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he responded subconsciously: "Drink some wine, get drunk, forget all the sufferings, and do what you want to do."

Sandy nodded: "Okay."

Forget everything and just follow your heart.

She asked back: "Su Xuan, do you want a kiss?"

"…What?"

Sandy didn't say it again.

She moved closer, held the little fox's face and kissed it.

The alcohol was so strong that Sandy realized she was drunk later.

The stronger the evening breeze, the more drunk I become.

She closed her eyes and gently bit the little fox's lips. He did not defend himself, and the swordsman pried open his teeth easily.

Softness sticks to softness, one side is cool, the other side is hot, the emotions that have been suppressed for a long time burst out at this moment, and forbearance and restraint collapse completely.

The swordsman followed what the little fox had taught him and gently sucked the tip of his tongue. The shudder of fear brought Su Xuan back to his senses.

He responded and Sandy closed her eyes and kissed him.

She was kissing him, Sandy was kissing him.

The string that Su Xuan had been holding tightly together finally broke. He pinched her waist and brought her over. The swordsman sat astride his arms with her long legs spread on both sides of him.

He closed his eyes, took the initiative, turned side to side, bit and rubbed, going deeper and deeper.

The aftertaste of the wine was a bit bitter, and the aroma of wine filled the air between their lips and teeth. Su Xuan was almost biting her, wanting to chew her up and swallow her into his stomach. Their blood was mixed with each other, their flesh and bones were fused together, and they could never be separated from each other again. Everything belonged to each other.

The wine bottle was blown to the ground by the wind and completely shattered. The swordsman no longer endured it blindly as in the past, but took the initiative to kiss him back and tilted his head to make it easier for him to kiss him.

The little fox held her hips, picked her up and carried her to the hall. She also took the initiative to hug him tightly and leaned over to kiss him.

Sang Dai was placed by Su Xuan on the soft couch by the window. His kiss fell on the swordsman's ear. Listening to the swordsman's faint breathing, he held her ear and took the indigo necklace into his mouth. This was the swordsman he had carefully raised.

As the kiss went on, Sandy clasped her fingers with his and closed her eyes as she followed him. The alcohol gave her courage. She could let go of everything and be her true self.

She is not a person with awakened spiritual roots, she is not Ying Heng’s apprentice, and she is not an orphan girl from Wei Sheng’s family.

She is just Sandy, a Sandy who has some feelings for Su Xuan.

The swordsman's outer shirt was unbuttoned, leaving her inner shirt loosely on her body. The little fox kissed along her exposed skin, leaving marks.

The loose neckline revealed a corner of the small shirt underneath, wrapping up the beauty of the woman. He kissed along the thin shoulder straps, raised his body while untying the belt of her middle shirt, and stopped to look at the swordsman with disheveled clothes.

Sandy opened her eyes and clearly felt his desire. He had suppressed his estrus for too many years and always felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to die.

He was asking for her opinion.

Sandy closed her eyes, hugged his neck, and nodded: "Yeah."

She was drunk, she was a drunk, and drunks are irrational.

The little fox almost trembled as he untied her ties.

When the middle garment spread out, it became a light blue undershirt, revealing a section of her fair waist, so slender that he could hold it with one hand.

Su Xuan began to kiss her down along her neck. The furry fox tail appeared and cushioned under the swordsman's body, forcing her to raise her head a little to cater to his kiss.

The little fox kissed her shoulders, collarbone, a hint of softness, and her slender waist, leaving kisses on her snow-white waist.

He still had some sense and did not take off her undershirt and skirt. The most he went too far with was kissing her soft parts through her undershirt. However, Sandy felt her whole body getting hot.

I don't know what time it was, it was very late anyway. Too much time had passed and the little fox finally stopped. He pulled a thin blanket beside him and wrapped the swordsman in it.

He held her and the blanket in his arms, his nose against her shoulder, his breath so hot that she couldn't bear it.

"Su Xuan..."

The little fox replied sullenly: "Yeah, I'm in Dai Dai."

Sandy rested her forehead against his chest, closed her eyes and slowed her breathing: "If you want to continue, I agree, you can continue."

The little fox was in great pain. She could feel that the nine-tailed fox clan had hot blood and strong sexual desires. She didn't know how the little fox had survived the past hundred years since it became an adult.

Sandy was drunk tonight, which was rare for her. She was out of her mind and could agree to anything he wanted. When she woke up tomorrow, she would still be the gentle and cold swordsman.

But Su Xuan kissed her forehead and gently rejected her: "No."

Sandy opened her eyes and the two looked at each other.

There were fine beads of sweat on Su Xuan's forehead, his cheeks were very red, and the corners of his slightly upturned eyes were red.

He raised his hand to wipe away Sandy's sweat and said again: "No."

Sandy said, "You are in pain."

Su Xuan said: "Well, it's very uncomfortable."

"I allow you to do this."

"I don't want to."

"…Why?"

"Dade, you shouldn't."

The little fox hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead: "I like you. If you want it, I can give my body to you, only to you, but Dai Dai, you are not like this."

Su Xuan's hand gently stroked her cheek, his eyes gentle: "Your love for me is not enough to support us to do this, and you can't give your body to others so easily. You are drunk tonight, and the most intimate thing between us cannot happen at this time. This will be a barrier between us for a lifetime. In the future, you and I will regret not giving each other a perfect first time."

Sandy's breathing was trembling: "Su Xuan, I won't regret it..."

"You will, you will, Dai Dai." Su Xuan kissed her lips, pecked her, and said, "Ask yourself, what we did just now, was it because of your guilt, or because you really love me?"

"If you really like me and are willing to do this with me, we can do it together now. But if you do it out of guilt for me, Dai Dai, I don't want to do it."

Sandy's body was shaking.

He really knows her too well.

The better Su Xuan treated Sandi, the more upset Sandi felt. The guilt made her always soft-hearted and distressed towards Su Xuan. She tacitly allowed him to do some intimate things with her because she didn't want to see Su Xuan feel bad.

She liked Su Xuan, even liked him a lot, so she didn't mind kissing him, nor did she dislike his closeness.

But that love was far from enough to support her doing more intimate things with him, such as unbuttoning her middle shirt just now, leaving her upper body only in a small top. This would have been difficult for her to agree to before, but now she couldn't refuse him. She felt sad and guilty when she saw him.

Su Xuan rested his chin on the top of her head and said in a hoarse voice, "I am a demon. I have no sense of morality, nor am I a gentleman. I admit that I desire you, so I just took advantage of your soft heart towards me and went a step further. But Dai Dai, my despicable heart only allows me to do this much."

"Until you like me enough to do this with me, we can only stop here."

Sandy closed her eyes. The scent of grass and fragrance lingered together, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Her heart felt very sad, and she covered her eyes again as she did before to hold back her tears.

"Su Xuan...why do you like me so much?"

She didn't understand at all. What was so good about her? She beat him and hurt him. Why did he, a demon king with awakened heavenly spiritual roots and a great demon cultivator, chase after her? If she couldn't hear his inner voice, Sang Dai would never be gentle to Su Xuan in her life.

Why do you like her so much?

Why do so much for her?

Why did she feel so guilty and distressed towards him?

The little fox pulled the swordsman out of her arms and wiped away her tears.

"You are Sandy, and I will only like Sandy, that's all."

Perhaps it was fate. When the girl broke into the dungeon, swung her sword, cut the spiritual threads, and brought him out of the cannibalistic place, his heart was no longer her own.

He followed her, desired her, rejoiced at her strength, and desired to be stronger still, so that he could stand shoulder to shoulder with her.

He looked at Sandy's face. This face was so touching that he could never get tired of looking at it. He liked it very much.

Su Xuan likes everything about Sang Dai.

The little fox leaned over to peck her lips and said, "Open your heart a little more, please. I will never betray you."

Sandy raised her chin slightly, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes.

"Su Xuan, please give me some more time and wait for me."

"Okay." Su Xuan kissed her lips and said, "Daidai, don't be afraid."

Whatever the road ahead holds, they will face it together.

Sandy climbed onto his neck, opened her red lips, and kissed him back with her eyes closed.

She hugged his shoulders as he kissed her neck.

"I will never be afraid."
