Just when it thought its demonic life was in danger, it encountered the traveling Ming Yi.
He picked him up and used his magic to help him transform.
He also specially created a lake so that he could recuperate in it.
The Lake Lord thought through everything that had happened before he came to the human realm.
Only then did I realize that I was either traveling with Qingxi or running away with Shiqian.
In the end, they stayed in that lake and never went anywhere else.
"You mean you want me to go out and look for him?"
Qin Luo's inner thoughts: I didn't say that, don't try to pin the blame on me...
On the surface, however, he appeared righteous and awe-inspiring.
"Hmm... Is it possible, I mean, for you to find your way back to your life?"
"One's own life?"
"Yes, don't you demons all transform into human form and then come to the human world to gain experience?"
"After a demon takes human form, it is indeed necessary to come to the human world to experience the seven sufferings."
"That settles it then. You see, you've come, but you haven't been through any trials or tribulations, so you probably haven't experienced the hardships you mentioned, right?"
"No, there isn't."
"Go and experience the human world, wander around and see the sights. When you get tired, go back to the demon realm and see those demon relatives you haven't seen for many years."
The lake lord thought of Moonless Lake, that being like a demon mother.
Its wooden heart suddenly and slowly beat.
Seeing that things were looking promising, Qin Luo continued to persuade him.
"If you truly love that person, you should go out and make yourself excellent, so that you can rival or even surpass him, instead of being stuck in your ways and crying your eyes out."
Upon hearing this, the lake owner seemed to awaken from a drunken stupor.
“You’re right. I should stand by his side, not be a burden behind him. After I have experienced the seven sufferings of the human world, it’s time for me to go back and see my demon mother.”
There was more longing in its eyes than a blank, silly grin.
Qin Luo then knew that it would not be willing to revert to its original form.
Then, she looked again at the woody heart.
"Do you need my help?"
The lake owner followed her gaze and looked over as well.
Is that alright?
Qin Luo shrugged slightly.
"certainly!"
The lake owner nodded to her, then closed his eyes.
"Thank you for your help!"
With its consent, Qin Luo used his wood-based powers to envelop the heart.
A delicate yet vibrant energy, swaying gently like a living thing.
It exudes a warm and healing aura, gradually beginning to gather and weave.
It forms a translucent hand that emits a faint glow.
A hand made of healing power gently yet firmly rested on the wooden core.
With its gentle touch, a fragrance filled the air.
A fresh, slightly sweet herbal scent—it's a healing power surging within.
Gradually, a faint green light appeared around the wood core.
The light contained a glimmer of life, making the previously weak and feeble pulse...
Slowly, his movements became stronger and more rhythmic, and the lake master's pale face gradually regained its color.
The slight frown gradually relaxed as time went by.
The wood-based supernatural power slowly dissipated, turning into specks of green light that merged into the heart.
The lake owner finally opened his eyes, his eyes sparkling with incredible surprise and gratitude.
Its heart not only returned to normal, but seemed to have become even more vigorous.
"Thank you, Qin Luo!"
Qin Luo was somewhat surprised when his name was suddenly called.
How did you know my name?
The lake owner pointed to the vines still clinging to the water plants.
"It calls you Luo Luo. Your father is called Qin Yan, so naturally you are called Qin Luo."
Why not Qin Luoluo?
The lake owner thought for a moment and said, "That's acceptable!"
Can you tell me your name?
The lake owner thought carefully about that name, a name he had forgotten how long it had been since it was last called.
"Tiyuan!"
Qin Luo murmured twice before reaching out her hand to it.
"Hello Tiyuan, I'm Qin Luo, nice to meet you."
The lake owner had never seen this way of greeting before, so he extended his hand in return.
"Hello Qin Luo, I'm Ti Yuan, nice to meet you."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Tengteng.
"And that little vine~"
The vines swayed and twisted.
"My name is Qin Tengteng, you can just call me Tengteng."
"Okay, Tengteng~"
Then both the man and the two plants burst into laughter, and the guards at the door heard the lake lord's laughter.
Most people take it for granted, because everyone knows this at the bottom of the lake.
The lake owner is the one who loves to laugh the most; he often smiles towards the entrance.
It seemed as if it was afraid that someone would come in and not see its smiling face immediately.
After laughing, Tengteng gathered the water plants she had found.
It was brought to Qin Luo's lips
"Luo Luo, you should use this first. This place is too shabby. It's all water plants and mud. I don't think you'd like to eat mud."
Qin Luo didn't mind and started eating.
While chewing, he praised the vine.
"I, Teng, am indeed thoughtful and clever. I really don't like eating mud. As long as there are aquatic plants, I'm fine with it and can fill my stomach!"
Seeing their pitiful state, Ti Yuan went to instruct the guards to find food.
He himself went to convene a meeting of the spirits to prepare for his upcoming long journey.
As soon as it left, Qin Hou began discussing things with Tengteng.
How can I inform Wu Hua about my condition?
"The little one must be so worried, we have to find a way to let it know it's safe."
The vines leaned askew, as if they didn't understand.
"Can't we just talk to the lake lord and ask him to let us out?"
Qin Luo put a finger to her lips, signaling it to be quiet.
"After talking for so long, has it mentioned letting us go?"
Tengteng thought for a moment, then shook the vine.
"No…"
"So, we can't believe everything it says; we should just go through the motions!"
