Inside the demon territory, at the entrance of a towering snow-capped mountain, there was silence. The Demon Lord Night King lay quietly beside the stove, his body trembling slightly, as if he was still immersed in the fierce battle. The woman in a black dress held his hand tightly, her eyes full of concern and worry.
The Night King's face was as pale as paper, and blood was constantly oozing from his wounds, staining his clothes red. His breathing was rapid and weak, as if he needed to use all his strength to breathe. The woman gently wiped his wounds, and her movements were cautious, for fear of hurting him.
Night King's thoughts gradually returned to the battle with Xiao Ning. Xiao Ning's strength shocked and frightened him. He had never met such a strong opponent. His heart was filled with resentment and anger. He didn't understand why Xiao Ning suddenly became so strong that even he couldn't compete with him.
When he thought of this, the Night King's body trembled involuntarily. A trace of despair and humiliation flashed in his eyes. This was the most embarrassing moment in his life. Even when he was young and fought with the human leader Bai Nantian, he had never been so miserable.
The woman sensed the Night King's mood change. She patted his hand gently and comforted him, "Uncle, don't think about it anymore. You have done your best."
The Night King turned his head and looked at the woman, with a trace of guilt in his eyes. He held her little hand tightly and said, "I'm sorry, Die, uncle almost took you to see the world."
Die shook her head, with a determined light in her eyes. She said softly: "Uncle, Die doesn't want to see any world, I just want you to live well, let's... let's not fight anymore, okay?"
The Night King sighed, his eyes full of helplessness. He knew that Butterfly's wish was so simple, but he could not satisfy her.
The Night King took a deep breath and said slowly: "No...Die, I promised your mother that I would take good care of you. The demon world is getting colder and colder. Soon, a cold wave that occurs once every hundred years will hit again. This time it will be more terrible than all the previous ones. If we don't take action, the entire demon world will face a catastrophe. For you and the whole clan, I must send you to the human world. There is warm sunshine and fertile land, and you can live a peaceful life there."
Tears welled up in Die's eyes. She knew that her uncle's decision was for her own good, but she couldn't give up her feelings for the Demon World. She lowered her head and said softly, "Uncle, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I really don't want to leave the Demon World. This is our home, our roots."
The Night King stroked Diedie's hair and said, "Diedie, your uncle doesn't want to leave the demon world either, but we have no choice. Only by going to the human world can you be safe. Your uncle will do everything he can to protect your safety."
Die raised her head and looked at Ye Wang, her eyes full of trust and dependence. She knew that her uncle would definitely keep his word. She nodded and said, "Uncle, I believe you. But you must promise me that you will never take risks. You are the only relative I have left."
The Night King smiled slightly, with a hint of bitterness in his smile. He said, "Die, uncle promises you. We will step into the bright sunlight together."
After saying this, the Night King closed his eyes, and his body gradually relaxed. The woman sat quietly beside him, watching him, as if waiting for him to wake up again.
The next day, sunlight shone through the windows into the hall of the Xiao Mansion, and everyone had different expressions. Nangong Luoyu and Xiao Ning were kneeling on the ground, and Xiao Ning muttered helplessly: "Why do I have to kneel down too?"
Chu Qingxian and Chu Qian were sitting at the top. Even Xiao Ding, who was usually the head of the family, didn't dare to speak. Chu Qingxian's face was gloomy, and Chu Qian's chest was heaving violently with anger. Her eyes were fixed on Nangong Luoyu. Yesterday, she tried her best to kill Nangong Luoyu, but Nangong Luoyu was so strong that he was beaten all night, but nothing happened. Only one of his front teeth was knocked out.
Chu Qian's expression became solemn, and she asked in a low voice:
"Ning'er, tell me in detail what happened?"
Xiao Ning sighed softly, and then slowly narrated:
"Didn't Aunt Nangong eat my soul? Because of the long time, she and I have already merged into one. If Aunt Nangong passes away, I will not be able to survive. Therefore, I have no choice but to save her."
Everyone finally understood the reason for the incident. It turned out that Nangong Luoyu couldn't die. Chu Qingxian slammed the table angrily and shouted loudly: "You are so lucky, Nangong Luoyu!"
However, Nangong Luoyu smiled, holding up his mouth that was missing a front tooth, and this smile was actually somewhat cute. Chu Qian helplessly held her forehead and sighed, "What a sin!"
Then, Chu Qian turned her gaze to the expressionless Xiao Ding and shouted, "Hey, stop being like a log and speak!"
Xiao Ding came back to his senses and looked at them hurriedly. He cleared his throat and said, "Since that's the case, Senior Sister, you can temporarily live in the Xiao Mansion. However, we will closely monitor your every move. If you have any bad intentions again, don't blame us for being ruthless."
"You still call her Senior Sister! She slept with your son! You!"
Chu Qian was furious and picked up a cup beside her and threw it at her husband. The cup drew an arc in the air and was about to hit Xiao Ding, but Xiao Ding dodged to the side and the cup fell to the ground with a "bang", and fragments flew everywhere.
The atmosphere in the hall became increasingly tense, and everyone's eyes shuttled back and forth between Nangong Luoyu, Xiao Ning and Xiao Ding, not knowing what would happen next.
Suddenly, Xiao Ding's communication disc made a crisp sound, and he quickly clicked it, and the screen showed Li Changsheng's message. He clicked on a voice message with anticipation, and the voice slowly spread.
