The monsters living in the demon world will never forget the night when a fire broke out in the demon temple.
The flames rising into the sky seemed to burn something, and it roared, trying to prove to the world that it once existed.
However, the monsters could only find their unconscious eldest prince and princess not far from the temple, and the second princess had disappeared somewhere unknown.
Who will inherit the Demon Tribe Temple? The missing second princess suddenly becomes the undisputed new Demon King in the demon world.
Therefore, finding the missing new Demon King has become the top priority of the demon world today.
"woke up?"
When Ning Ruoxuan opened her eyes, she saw Chen Sui with white hair stirring the fire.
Ning Ruoxian was a little dazed: "You...are you going to dye your hair?"
"Is there such a condition here?" Shen Sui rolled his eyes.
Ning Ruoxian woke up with a start. She stammered, "What happened to you? I remember, I seemed to have participated in the training at the Demon Clan Temple."
Chen Sui muttered, "The Demon Fairy Lotus tried to control you, so I entered the Demon Clan Temple and rescued the three of you. Then I burned the Demon Clan Temple down and finally escaped with you."
Every word Chen Sui said made Ning Ruoxian feel dizzy. She opened her mouth but couldn't say a word. Chen Sui then handed her a fruit considerately: "Eat it. If you eat something, you might feel better."
Ning Ruoxian held the fruit in her hand and nibbled it mechanically. Then she suddenly said, "You helped me escape, so..."
"The most dangerous place is the safest place," Shen Sui said naturally, "Now the world of immortal cultivation has probably been driven crazy by the demon world. They all think that you who are missing are the new demon king."
Ning Ruoxian was very confused: "But I didn't get any inheritance..."
Shen Sui nodded: "I know."
"How do you know?" Ning Ruoxuan was a little surprised, but she quickly remembered that it was Chen Sui who rescued her, so Chen Sui should know.
She was feeling a little annoyed about her brain suddenly shutting down, but Chen Sui said naturally, "Because the Demon King's inheritance is with me."
Ning Ruoxian: “…”
Ning Ruoxian: “???”
Ning Ruoxian looked at Chen Sui in a daze, as if she had gone completely stupid.
She clearly knew every word that Chen Sui said, but why couldn’t she understand what he said when he spoke?
At this time, Chen Sui stretched out his hand, and Ning Ruoxian clearly saw the intricate red pattern on Chen Sui's wrist. It was clinging to Chen Sui's wrist and climbing up Chen Sui's arm.
"When this pattern grows all over my body, I'll be dead," Chen Sui said lightly. "This is also the truth behind the deaths of previous Demon Kings. It grants the Demon King power, but also drains his lifespan and self-awareness."
Ning Ruoxian stared blankly at the intricate red pattern. The next second, she suddenly grabbed Chen Sui's wrist, trembling but saying in disbelief: "You..."
Chen Sui patted her head and said, "Come to think of it, if you really want to calculate, you should be younger than me. You came here when you were only ten years old. You are very brave."
Ning Ruoxian was stunned in place, looking at Chen Sui. Chen Sui gave her a relaxed smile: "What are you doing with that expression? I said I would take you home."
Ning Ruoxuan opened her mouth, but she couldn't control her tears, which fell down.
She said incoherently: "No, I'm not, what I want is for us to go home together..."
Chen Sui tilted his head: "I'm afraid that's not possible. After all, if I become the Demon King, it means I have to stay in this world forever."
Ning Ruoxian looked at her with tears in her eyes, seemingly not understanding what Chen Sui said. However, Chen Sui smiled and wiped away her tears: "Why are you crying, Xianxian? You're almost home. Be happy. Besides, I won't die soon."
Ning Ruoxian cried harder and harder for some reason.
Chen Sui was a little at a loss. She originally thought it was a trivial matter, so she told Ning Ruoxian about it calmly, but Ning Ruoxian didn't seem happy.
After a long while, Ning Ruoxian suddenly stopped sobbing, which made Shen Sui breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that Ning Ruoxian had figured it out. When Shen Sui was about to speak, Ning Ruoxian interrupted her: "I will take you to Yanshen Sect to find Shen Xinglan."
Shen Sui was stunned.
Ning Ruoxian stared at Chen Sui with red eyes. She repeated, "I'll take you to Yanshen Sect to find Shen Xinglan."
Chen Sui didn't expect Ning Ruoxian to have such an idea.
Chen Sui immediately laughed out loud: "Oh, there's no need, Xianxian. Why would I bother Shen Xinglan with such a thing? Besides, I have the Demon King's inheritance. Once it's completely integrated, I can tear open the space and send you back."
"But if I had known that the price would be the loss of your self-awareness," Ning Ruoxian took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "I would rather never go back."
Then Ning Ruoxian reached out her hand and gently touched Shen Sui's face. She murmured softly and pleaded, "Go to Yanshen Sect and meet Shen Xinglan. He really... he really misses you so much."
Shen Sui didn't say anything.
Shen Xinglan, who is in Yanshen Sect, has been extremely upset these days. The sect's affairs are complicated, and the movement in the demon world naturally caused movement in the world of immortal cultivation. Some sneaky people also quietly poked their heads out in the chaos at this time.
Shen Xinglan then sent out batches of disciples to encircle and suppress the rebellion. Fortunately, everything was within his expectations, so the losses of Yanshen Sect were not great.
"You're really quite impressive now," the drunken old man sneered, "The Sect Master's prestige is truly immense."
Shen Xinglan didn't bother to pay attention to him. After approving the dispatch of a new group of disciples to reinforce the Yanbian barrier between the human and demon realms, he said in a deep voice, "You old bastard, I don't want to take action now."
The drunk old man immediately snorted loudly, but quickly left the Yanshen Hall.
Shen Xinglan sat on a high seat, slightly dazed. His thoughts began to wander and he suddenly felt a little tired. After all, being the sect leader always required a lot of energy.
I don't know how Shen Sui is doing now...
Shen Xinglan's finger fell on the information just transmitted from the demon world. He knew without thinking that this must have been done by Shen Sui.
The corners of Shen Xinglan's lips curled up unconsciously.
In fact, he also guessed that Chen Sui's purpose of going to the demon world must be to find Ning Ruoxian, but he didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion.
How should I put it, if it's Shen Sui, it feels quite normal...
Just then, a disciple of Yanshen Sect hurried in.
"Sect Master, we've spotted the current Demon King Ning Ruoxian near the Yanshen Mountains!"
