The Demon World (XII)

Sandy's life in the past half month can be described as extremely dull.

During the day, Liu Lixue came to treat her injuries. After a whole day of treatment, she had a medicinal meal with Su Xuan in the evening.

The medicinal meals were different every day, but all were expensive. Sang Dai didn't even dare to calculate the amount of spirit stones consumed for a table of food, and she had no idea how much money Su Xuan had.

Su Xuan, the demon king, was so busy during the day that he was rarely seen, but at mealtime he could always be seen in the kitchen.

After dinner, the two of them cleaned up and took a shower. Sang Dai was a slow worker, and even with Cui Shao's help, she was always slower than Su Xuan.

When she returned to the main hall, Su Xuan was already waiting for her in the inner hall. When he saw her coming, he slowly dried her hair and said,

"But I'll let it go. Miss Sang is weak right now. If anything happens to her, I won't be able to ask the Sword Sect for mercy."

Sandy was numb to what she heard. Every day she slept on the main couch and Su Xuan slept on the small soft couch.

Sometimes Sandi would wake up and curl up in Su Xuan's arms, holding his fox tail. This usually meant that she must have had a chill and high fever the night before. Su Xuan couldn't sleep either, so he had no choice but to hold her in his arms to sleep so that he could take care of her.

Sometimes when Sandy woke up, Su Xuan was still lying on the couch, proving that she had been quite well behaved the night before. Her menstrual disorder was quickly suppressed by Su Xuan, and he could also sleep well.

Sang Dai always felt guilty towards Su Xuan. Looking at those shallow eyes, she wanted to say to Su Xuan countless times:

"Thank you for your hard work, Su Xuan."

But as long as you look him in the eye, you will know that he is using the same words in his mind.

【Daidai’s eyelashes are so long, give her a kiss.】

【Daidai has a very thin waist, give her a hug.】

[Daidai is so beautiful, I want to marry her. 】

【Dedededededede……】

Sandy forced herself to suppress her words. All her gratitude and guilt towards Su Xuan disappeared in the confession that filled her mind.

Are all nine-tailed foxes like this?

Or is it only Su Xuan who is like this?

Sandy asked the silk ribbon on her wrist: "Tell me, what is your master like in normal times?"

"Cold and stinky face?"

Zhu Ling nodded.

"You are a man of few words. You would rather say one word than two?"

Zhu Ling nodded excitedly.

"He has a bad temper and is moody. He likes to hang people on kites and let them fly for him to watch while he eats melon seeds?"

Zhu Ling nodded frantically.

Miss Sang is so right!

Accurate and to the point!

It nuzzled Sandy's wrist and moved up and down her arm, making her laugh again.

When Su Xuan came in, he saw Sang Dai laughing non-stop because of Qiao Ling's teasing.

Sandy smiled beautifully, her eyebrows were curved, her eyes were moving, and a smile appeared on her cold face, melting all the ice and snow, and the two small pear-shaped curls on her lips were faintly visible.

Su Xuan was glad that he was far away from her so she couldn't hear his crazy and irregular heartbeat.

Sang Dai also saw Su Xuan, he was too conspicuous.

She patted the silk thread, signaling it to be more stable, with a faint smile on her lips, and said to Su Xuan: "You are back?"

Still laughing.

You have a really beautiful smile.

Su Xuan only felt that his heart was beating so fast as if it was about to explode.

Just as I was about to steady my voice to respond to her, I heard footsteps behind me.

Along with it came a frivolous voice: "Miss Sang, at noon——"

Before Liu Lixue could utter the word "OK", her eyes blurred and a strong wind rushed towards her, causing her body to float into the air.

When he came to his senses again, he saw a majestic gate in front of him, with the words "Demon Palace" solemnly written on it.

The demon soldier guarding the gate asked in surprise: "Master Liu?"

The demon soldiers only saw a red shadow falling from the sky and thought that the enemy was about to form a defensive formation, but they found that it was Liu Lixue who had entered the demon palace from the gate not long ago.

Liu Lixue clenched her teeth and climbed up from the ground with a smile on her face. In her ears came the voice of a fox who forgot his loyalty for the sake of beauty:

"Liu Lixue, come back in."

Liu Lixue smiled calmly: "It's okay, it's okay, I came out to see if you guys are defending well. If you're tired of flying, lie down for a while."

The demon soldiers thought it was a bit absurd, but Liu Lixue's expression was so calm that it seemed like it was really the case.

When they heard this, they immediately straightened their posture and almost engraved "Work hard on the job" on their minds.

Liu Lixue walked into the Demon Palace with a smile, and patted the demon soldiers on guard as she passed by: "Stand guard well, there is a noble living in the Demon Palace, and no suspicious person can be allowed in. If you hurt a hair of the noble, you must be careful of your own head."

The demon soldiers shouted loudly: "Yes!"

As soon as they passed the gate of the Demon Palace, the smile on Liu Lixue's face immediately collapsed. She clenched the folding fan in her hand and said with gritted teeth:

"My Lord!"

No matter how angry he was, he didn't dare to call Su Xuan by his name, even though they grew up together.

He resigned himself to walking the same path he had just walked half an hour ago, according to Su Xuan's instructions.

New, new, coming.

On the other side, Sang Dai only had time to hear a familiar voice, but before she saw Liu Lixue, she saw Su Xuan waving his sleeves, and the voice suddenly faded away.

She was stunned for a moment and asked, "It seemed to be Mr. Liu just now?"

Su Xuan straightened his sleeves and said frankly, "No, you are mistaken."

Sandy: “…”

[You stupid peacock, I finally got to see Dai Dai smile once, how can I show it to others? ]

Sandy had a complicated expression.

How much injustice did Liu Lixue suffer while following Su Xuan?

Su Xuan sat down opposite her, picked up the tea on the stone table and poured himself a cup of tea. "Half a month later, I sent Liu Lixue to repair your meridians."

Sandy nodded, suppressed her smile and asked, "What about Master Liu?"

Su Xuan paused in his tea drinking movement, froze for a moment, and then drank the tea in his hand calmly.

"He didn't come. Maybe some little witch stopped him on the road."

Liu Lixue: Reputation has been damaged.

Sandy was silent.

Su Xuan's eyes fell on her hand caressing Xi Ling, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his lips. He asked, "Do you like Xi Ling?"

When Zhu Ling heard the Lord calling it, it responded excitedly, spinning around Sandy's wrist, making her laugh again.

The smile on Su Xuan's lips grew bigger and bigger.

Sandy patted Zhu Ling and said, "Be quiet. I'm itchy."

Only then did Zhu Ling calm down.

When Sandy looked at him, Su Xuan quickly put away his smile and looked cold again.

He lowered his eyes and poured tea, saying slowly: "The silk is a heavenly defensive weapon, and it can also nourish the meridians."

Sandy nodded: "I know."

Thinking of this, she asked again: "Do you want to give it a name? After all, it is a heavenly-level magic weapon and has spiritual awareness."

Zhui Ling nodded in agreement: That's right, it's a heavenly grade magic weapon. The Lord calls it Zhui Ling Zhui Ling every day. What's the difference between it and those ordinary Zhui Ling?

Su Xuan was startled and looked at the silk ribbon on Sang Dai's wrist.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Then you pick one."

Sandy: “…I’m not quite suitable.”

Su Xuan raised his eyes to look at her: "What's inappropriate?"

[Only the Demon Queen can wear this silk ribbon. I made it for Dai Dai. If Dai Dai doesn't want it, it's just an ordinary ribbon. I will destroy it myself.]

Tie the silk: a chill down the spine.

Sandy: “…”

She glanced at the well-behaved silk on her wrist and asked it, "Then shall I give you a name?"

Zhu Ling touched her wrist and nodded wildly in response.

Sandy smiled, lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly stretched out her finger and touched it.

"Changmang, how about it?"

In this chaotic world, I hope its light can last forever.

Zhu Ling nudged Sandy to show that she liked the name very much.

Sang Dai glanced at Su Xuan. His eyes were always on her and the two of them happened to look at each other.

【Long Mang...】

Sandy was a little curious about what Su Xuan thought of this name.

Her eyes lit up and she looked at Su Xuan with sparkling eyes.

Su Xuan blinked his eyelashes and said calmly, "Well, it's okay."

But in Sandy’s mind: [Nice, nice, nice! Even the name is so nice, you are worthy of being my Dai Dai! Kiss!]

The expectations that Sandy had just built up were shattered.

She lowered her head and smiled.

What else could Su Xuan think? He admired and looked forward to everything about her. Even if Sang Dai pointed at Zhu Ling and said it was a sword, he would praise her in his heart for her accurate judgment.

The swordsman's smile was really beautiful in the sunlight. Su Xuan felt a dry throat and drank several cups of tea in a row.

He turned his head away from looking at Sandy and listened to her talking carefully to Changmang.

In fact, she has not yet acknowledged her master, so she cannot understand Changmang's words, and Changmang can only give her a little response.

But Sang Dai still communicated with Chang Mang without any obstacles. Chang Mang always made the sword cultivator laugh. Su Xuan saw it and only regretted not giving her Chang Mang earlier.

If I had known earlier, I would have thrown it directly to the back mountain of the Sword Sect after I made it, and placed it in front of her bamboo house. She would have accepted it even if she didn’t want it. With Changmang to coax her, she wouldn’t be so lonely in the Sword Sect.

Su Xuan was so absorbed in watching that he didn't notice the resentful look behind him.

Although Sandi had lost her spiritual power, she still had the agility of a swordsman, and she saw Liu Lixue as soon as he walked in.

Liu Lixue was dressed in red, with her well-groomed black hair a little messy, as if blown by the wind. She looked at Su Xuan with resentment. If eyes could kill, Liu Lixue would have poked hundreds of holes in a fox.

Sandy said: "Mr. Liu."

Su Xuan suddenly turned around.

Liu Lixue hurriedly smiled and said, "My Lord, Miss Sang, good afternoon."

He laughed heartily, but the more you looked at it, the more that smile seemed to be forced out.

Su Xuan said calmly: "Since you are here, just get ready. Why are you still standing there wasting time?"

He knew that Sandy had been looking forward to the day when her meridians would be rebuilt, and her severely injured meridians always made her sleep restlessly at night.

Liu Lixue was shocked. Wasn't it Su Xuan who just threw him out? Why was he still blaming him for wasting time!

But when he met the indifferent look from his master, he still gave in without hesitation, narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Okay, okay, Miss Sang, then let's move a step?"

Sang Dai stood up and thanked him: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Liu."

To reshape the meridians, one needs the divine artifact Seven Lotus Mirror, in combination with some magical herbs and elixirs. This is because the process of reshaping the meridians is equivalent to breaking up the severely injured meridians and stimulating the body to grow new meridians. It is therefore very easy for the soul to leave the body during this process, so Su Xuan specially went to buy some magical herbs to solidify the soul.

Liu Lixue will reshape her meridians in the main hall. There is Su Xuan's spiritual barrier in the main hall, which he originally set up specifically to stabilize Sang Dai's soul.

When Sandy was about to enter the house, she suddenly stopped and glanced at the people in the yard.

You usually don't see him during the day. He has been busy dealing with the evil people in the demon world lately and is rarely seen.

But today he came here during the day and stayed with her quietly.

Su Xuan sat at the stone table in the yard all the time. He didn't follow her, nor did he look at her. His eyes were fixed on the cup in front of him. His profile was straight, yet lonely.

Sang Dai suddenly called out, "Su Xuan."

He seemed like he hadn't moved for a long time. After she called him for a while, he moved slowly and looked up.

He didn't say anything, but Sandy heard his voice.

[Dade...]

It was a very soft sound, and the emotions were too complicated.

Worry, fear, heartache

Sandy smiled and said, "Don't worry."

Su Xuan's jaw tightened, and he pursed his lips. He turned his head away and replied stiffly, "I have used so many magical herbs and elixirs on you, but I haven't seen any benefit yet. You better not die."

If you can't see his eyes, you can't hear his voice.

But Sang Dai knew what Su Xuan was thinking.

She responded softly, "No, I will survive."

The door closed at this moment.

He was the only one left in the courtyard.

The wind blew up, blowing up the fallen petals all over the ground.

The tea in the cup had already gone cold.

The soul protection formation in the main hall was opened, and Sandy began to reshape her meridians.

Su Xuan clenched his hands tightly on the stone table, and his knuckles turned white from the exertion.
