The Golden Lion originally intended to launch a surprise attack on his opponent, but the moment he saw the Female Golden Lion, he was completely captivated.
He couldn't bear to kill his opponent; he wanted to hold her in his arms and cherish her.
The moment he saw the female Golden Lion, he knew in his heart that she was the one for him.
"Then let's use his good looks!"
The golden lion made up its mind and went into the yard.
The woman suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze flashing with a fierce light.
"Who are you...?"
However, she froze the moment she saw the golden lion.
The fierceness in her eyes turned into tenderness, not because she was infatuated with the Golden Lion's handsomeness and domineering presence, but because it was love at first sight.
Some people may only brush past each other through countless lifetimes, while others may meet for eternity in a single glance.
That's how the woman felt; the moment she saw the golden lion, she couldn't suppress the emotions in her heart.
She didn't know why, but she was just moved, she just liked him.
Their eyes met, and they both understood each other's gaze.
The woman stood up and slowly walked towards the golden lion.
The golden lion also approached the woman.
"I used to think I was aloof and had high standards, which is why I rejected the hearts of countless women. But now I know that it wasn't that I was aloof, but that I hadn't met you yet!"
The Golden Lion couldn't help but take the woman's hand and said softly.
The woman nodded slightly, her eyes glistening with tears.
"I used to think I would never love or marry, but after seeing you, I've changed my mind and want to spend my life with you!"
The golden lion held the woman tightly, his love erupting like a tsunami.
At that moment, he realized what it felt like to like someone.
The two embraced tightly, feeling each other's heartbeats and body temperature. The sunlight stretched their shadows long, like mandarin ducks.
After an unknown amount of time, the golden lion slowly released the woman and asked:
I still don't know your name.
"Huang Ling'er! And you, brother?" the woman asked in return.
The Golden Lion remained silent. He had no name, no family, and was a rogue cultivator who had been subdued by the Buddha.
"I don't have a name, just call me brother!"
"Brother~" the woman said shyly, her cheeks flushing.
The Golden Lion was overwhelmed with emotion, but quickly calmed down. He didn't want to lie to the woman, so he told her the purpose of his trip.
Upon hearing this, the woman looked shocked and unconsciously took several steps back.
She was completely bewildered, never expecting that the person she had fallen in love with was actually her enemy!
The golden lion felt sorry for him and quickly said:
"Ling'er, will you come with me? Buddha will eventually be punished for his evil deeds. He should leave Buddhism as soon as possible!"
Huang Ling'er turned her head away, tears welling in her beautiful eyes. The Golden Lion Clan is a Buddhist demon clan that has worshipped Buddha for generations.
It would be difficult for her to abandon her family and be with a traitor to Buddhism, but having finally found her true love, she didn't want to give up.
Huang Ling'er is now facing a difficult choice.
After a long silence, Huang Ling'er said in a trembling voice:
"Brother~ If I go with you, the Golden Lion Clan will be slaughtered by Buddha. I... I can't be so selfish!"
As she spoke, Huang Ling'er was already in tears.
Seeing his beloved in tears, the Golden Lion felt heartbroken to the point of suffocation.
He knew the consequences of Huang Ling'er going with him, and that he would be too selfish if he insisted on taking Huang Ling'er away.
After a long silence, Huang Ling'er said:
"Brother, take Nangong Xi with you!"
"And what about you?" the Golden Lion asked anxiously.
"I have my own way of avoiding punishment!" With that, Huang Ling'er turned her back and wept.
"Brother, let's just say we were destined to be apart!"
At that moment, the Golden Lion felt as if he had been hit hard in the chest by a heavy hammer, feeling pain and difficulty breathing.
He didn't go berserk and forcibly take Huang Ling'er away; he was no longer an impulsive young man.
"Let Brother Ling think of a solution later; he's got a lot of clever ideas!"
The Golden Lion pondered for a moment, then hugged Huang Ling'er from behind and said softly:
"Ling'er, don't say we're destined to be apart. Our fate was already set, and nothing and no one in this world can separate us."
Wait for me! There will definitely be a way for us to be together forever.
After saying this, the Golden Lion suppressed the urge to cry and walked towards a house in the inner courtyard.
Nangong Xi is inside.
"Lord Golden Lion!"
Nangong Xi opened her beautiful eyes wide, not expecting someone to save her so quickly.
The Golden Lion released the restrictions on Nangong Xi.
"Walk!"
Golden Lion used his hidden power to take away Nangong Xi, and after leaving the room, he came to Huang Ling'er and gently kissed her forehead.
"Wait for me~"
Immediately afterwards, the Golden Lion left Lion-Slaying Mountain.
Just as she was about to rush into the starry sky, Nangong Xi hurriedly said:
"My lord, wait a moment. No one has discovered that I have been rescued yet. We can take advantage of this opportunity to turn the demon lord against us."
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The golden lion paused for a moment and then nodded.
Immediately, he released Nangong Xi, and the two arrived at the dojo of the demon lord, the Azure-Eyed, Golden-Eyed, Red-Haired Lion.
The two black tigers guarding the gate immediately released their imposing aura and roared:
"Who goes there! No one may trespass into the Demon Lord's dojo!"
Despite the danger, Nangong Xi remained calm and composed, taking out a letter and handing it to Black Tiger:
"Please deliver this letter to the Demon Lord!"
Upon seeing the Tang Dynasty characters on the envelope, Black Tiger knew that the matter was of great importance.
"Please wait a moment, both of you!"
Immediately, he delivered the letter to the Demon Lord.
About fifteen minutes later, Black Tiger arrived at the gate and respectfully said:
"Fellow Daoists, the Demon Lord invites you!"
Black Tiger led Golden Lion and Nangong Xi into the main hall of the dojo.
The Demon Lord, with an imposing demeanor, holding the envelope in his hand, suddenly spoke in a stern voice:
"How dare you! You actually encouraged this demon lord to submit to the Tang Domain! Don't you know that all the demons of the Heng Domain are followers of Buddha!"
Believe it or not, this demon lord will order your men to be handed over to the Buddhist sect right now!
He wasn't quite sure if Nangong Xi and Golden Lion were high-ranking members of the Demon Subduing Star Domain testing him.
Nangong Xi remained calm and composed, and smiled:
"Your Majesty the Demon Lord is joking. If you truly wanted to hand us over to the Buddhist sect, you would have done so long ago instead of saying it out loud."
After saying that, she said seriously:
"I am Nangong Xi, the young master of the Nangong family. This letter is a handwritten letter from my grandfather, and all the conditions promised in it are true."
The Buddhists are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs, and everyone has the right to kill them. I think the Demon Lord has not forgotten the massacre of so many living beings in the Hengyu region back then.
You were forced to submit to Buddhism to protect the demon race, but Buddhism has never stopped monitoring the demon race over the years.
Perhaps after they conquer Tang Domain, or even the entire Illusionary Sea Starfield, their swords will be turned against you!
After reading Nangong Chen's letter, the Demon Lord was already tempted.
After confirming Nangong Xi's identity, he said coldly:
"As long as the war starts, and Tangyu can hold out for six months, my demon race will immediately mobilize!"
Nangong Xi was overjoyed and stood up, clasping his hands in greeting:
"The Demon Lord is truly righteous. On behalf of the billions of living beings in the Tang Domain, I thank the Demon Lord."
Without further ado, this humble woman shall take her leave!
"No need to see me off!" The Demon Lord watched Nangong Xi and the Golden Lion leave the dojo.
"Xiao Xi is not bad. She can still be so calm and composed when facing a demon lord of the Great Emperor level."
Nangong Xi smiled gently and said:
"Because the adult is with me!"
