Xu He didn't hide anything and recounted the whole story of how she left Moonlit Lake.
"The day after Moonlit Lake unleashed its fury, it released me. However, I was disoriented at the time and didn't know what it did. It seemed to give me an order, but I don't know the specifics..."
Qin Luo knew nothing about magic, but he also knew that if this wasn't handled properly...
That's like having a time bomb planted right next to you.
“Son, I feel like this instruction is coming towards us.”
Wu Hua agreed with her idea.
"It must have spied on your father's dealings with the Demon King."
"That shouldn't be the case. Even if it's a sacred lake, it would be difficult to avoid being discovered under those circumstances, right?"
Seeing her confusion, Wu Hua immediately explained to her.
"Moonlight Lake is called a sacred lake because it controls almost all the water resources of the demon race. Wherever there is water, it is its eyes and ears."
"What? This little lake is so amazing?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Hua and the two demons nodded repeatedly.
Xuhe even emphasized to her the status of Moonlit Lake in the demon realm.
"It is not only large, but also has countless underground branches. Moreover, it is integrated with the demon realm, and no one can do without the other. Even the demon king dares not offend it, because if it is destroyed, the demon realm will not be able to exist."
Mao Mao echoed the sentiment.
"Yes, yes, all the demons in the demon realm both love and hate it..."
They spoke clearly, but Qin Luo understood less and less as he listened.
"Then why did it go through all this trouble? Why not just have the Demon King send demons to capture us?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Hua sighed and couldn't help but begin to doubt her intelligence.
"Didn't you hear what Xuhe said? It's a little prince of the demon realm, but it's suffering endless torment at the bottom of the lake."
With a little guidance, Qin Luo suddenly understood.
"Therefore, Yue Linghu understands that the Demon King harbors resentment towards it and will certainly not do his best to help it."
"Yes, so after it pinpointed our location, it cast a spell on Xuhe and then teleported it onto our inevitable path."
Qin Luo had some admiration for Yue Linghu.
"It's really clever. If the Demon King's youngest son dies at our hands, even if the Demon King knows it did it on purpose, he won't do anything to it. He'll just vent his anger on the two of us."
"That's right. They might even incite the monsters to avenge their little prince, harming innocent people in the human world."
Qin Luo was horrified.
"That's terrifying. If it can leave the demon realm, we might both be doomed."
Wu Hua did not refute this statement; one was a mortal, and the other a young beast.
Indeed, they couldn't defeat that lake of unknown age.
"Now that we've taken Xuhe and Maomao under our control, they'll probably still try to cause trouble again. We need to figure out how to deal with them."
After it finished speaking, Daidai, who had been listening silently the whole time, suddenly spoke up.
"Currently, only Luo Luo's father should have the ability to resolve this matter."
Qin Luo nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
"But I've caused him a lot of trouble recently, so I'll wait a while before talking to him. Anyway, Yue Linghu won't notice Xu He's abnormality so quickly."
Not long ago, Qin Luo threw two major troubles at the Heavenly Dao.
Wu Hua felt a little sorry for him.
"Being a parent is really not easy!"
After clarifying and discussing the matter, everyone went to rest.
Mao Mao took root beside the carriage, and Dai Dai and Xu He boarded the carriage.
Qin Luo and Wu Hua set up a tent next to the carriage.
That night, humans, demons, and beasts each had their own thoughts, but all were working towards the same goal.
That means we must do everything in our power to protect the safety of our comrades.
The next morning, a light snow began to fall.
Mao Mao was the first to wake up, and it dispelled the mist.
He fed the horse again and wiped the snow off its body.
Just as he was waking up Daidai and Xuhe, Daidai looked at the weather outside the carriage.
They took out a blanket and wrapped it around Xuhe.
"The snow is likely to get heavier and heavier. Since you've lost your demon core, you'll definitely feel cold. Wrap yourself in the blanket and don't leave the carriage."
Actually, after Xuhe's feathers grew out, it wasn't as afraid of the cold as before.
But hearing these heartwarming words was like lighting a small stove in its heart.
"Okay, thank you..."
Seeing that it seemed hesitant to speak, Daidai immediately guessed what it was thinking.
“You are much older than me, so just call me Daidai. I will call you Xuhe. No matter what happened in the past, let’s forget everything and start from this moment.”
For some reason, his words always touched Xuhe's heart.
"Alright, forget the past, let's begin from this moment..."
Mao Mao, standing beside the carriage, listened to the conversation between the human and the demon.
My heart was filled with envy, but the moment Qin Luo and Wu Hua came out of the tent...
Its envy transformed into its future loyalty to the two.
"Eldest brother, second brother, you're awake? Did you sleep well last night?"
Before the two could answer, each of them threw an energy attack at it.
Qin Luo feared that it, not yet fully transformed, would freeze to death in the snow.
Wu Hua was charmed by its honey-sweet little mouth.
At this moment, Mao Mao felt like the happiest demon in the world.
Much happier than Xuhe, it absorbed all the energy.
It eagerly set off to help the two pack up their tent, and Qin Luo and Wu Hua watched its hardworking and dutiful appearance.
A knowing smile
"I wonder if it can get along with plants and animals."
"Given its pragmatism, a cup of tea's time will suffice."
After a quick meal of dry rations, everyone continued on their way to their destination.
Around 10:00 AM, the temperature dropped sharply.
The light snow turned into a heavy snowfall, like pear blossoms falling.
