Chapter 103 Demon Lord 103%
“…”
Xiao Xuelian escaped from Chao Yuan's bedroom.
She was not familiar with the structure of this place, so she wandered around. Seeing many monsters running in one direction, she cast an invisibility spell and followed them.
After leaving the back garden, she followed the demons to the main hall of Fenyuan Palace. When she came out of the main hall, she saw tens of thousands of demons standing in rows, holding weapons in their hands and shouting something in unison.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Xiao Xuelian hid behind a thick pillar. Amid the deafening cheers, she saw Chao Yuan standing on a high platform. His red clothes fluttered in the wind and snow, and flames around his body swayed violently, blooming red lotuses. He was fighting with a woman in yellow.
The red lotus fire was so strong that even the sky was burned blood red.
Xiao Xuelian hid her figure, pursed her lips and looked away. Even though she was hiding so far away, she felt like she was going to be burned by the flames on his body.
Such a terrifying person might burn her to death one day if he gets upset. Xiao Xuelian's rejection and fear of Chao Yuan intensified, and she desperately wanted to leave.
She didn't want to know who Chao Yuan was fighting against, nor did she care what the outcome would be. Having lost one of her souls, she seemed to have lost her original kindness and goodness. She felt that she shouldn't be so indifferent, but she couldn't find a reason not to be indifferent.
After only a brief pause, Xiao Xuelian lowered her head and turned to leave, muttering to herself, "He's fire and I'm ice. We're incompatible. Staying with him won't end well."
"I'm leaving."
"I have to leave him."
Having said this, Xiao Xuelian turned around and left without even looking back, so she didn't see that when she left, Chao Yuan on the high platform seemed to have noticed and turned his head to look back. Just this moment of distraction, he was knocked back by Huang Ying's heavy palm.
Huang Ying smiled and said, "Chao Yuan, compared to ten thousand years ago, you are too weak."
The gods and demons of ten thousand years ago were all dead long ago. Chao Yuan also didn't remember the existence of Huang Ying. Staring coldly at Huang Ying's red-gold eyes, he slowly raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his lips and asked, "Who are you?"
Who on earth could have lived for tens of thousands of years without being discovered, and still have a pair of red-gold eyes to use fire magic, and endure and lurk beside him for hundreds of years.
Huang Ying, what exactly do you want to do?
.
The main entrance was blocked, so Xiao Xuelian had to find another way out.
Having restored her original divine body, she not only improved her cultivation, but also gained the ability to communicate with plants and trees. Asking them along the way, Xiao Xuelian soon found a remote cave entrance and turned into a stream of light to drill out.
This cave entrance wasn't easy to penetrate. The entire Fenyuan Palace was encircled by a protective barrier, and this cave entrance was also within it. With Xiao Xuelian's current spiritual power, breaking such a powerful barrier wouldn't be easy, and Chao Yuan wouldn't give her time.
That is to say, relying on the tiny crack in the cave gate barrier, Xiao Xuelian managed to get out of the gap. Halfway through, she was panting and exhausted. She could only transform into a human body and use her hands and feet to dig the ground to drag out the lower half of her body that was stuck.
"Do you need help?" A smiling voice came from above my head.
Xiao Xuelian looked up and saw a man in white standing in front of her. He was handsome and elegant, with a cool and gentle aura, and looked very familiar.
"You are?" She didn't agree immediately.
The man was stunned by her doubt, then he knelt down in front of her with his knees slightly bent. "You don't know me?"
As the distance shortened, Xiao Xuelian shrank back uncomfortably. She glanced at the man for a moment longer and then remembered, "You are the White-robed Heavenly Venerable who often visits me at the Cold Pond."
She forgot Chao Yuan, forgot everyone, and forgot this world.
The man soon realized that there was something wrong with Qu Yaoyao's soul. After a moment of silence, he replied, "My name is Mo Xuanxiao."
"Oh, Mo Xuanxiao." Compared with her coldness towards Chao Yuan, Xiao Xuelian only said a few more words in front of Mo Xuanxiao and was not very enthusiastic.
Mo Xuanxiao extended his hand towards her. Xiao Xuelian hesitated for a moment, glancing from his face to his hand, a look of caution written all over her face. Even if she had forgotten everything, Xiao Xuelian was no longer the same person she had been when she first transformed. She was wary of others and didn't dare trust anyone.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
Mo Xuanxiao coaxed her gently, "Chao Yuan will catch up soon, I just want to pull you out."
When she heard the word "Chao Yuan", Xiao Xuelian's long eyelashes trembled. She struggled a few times and half put her hand into Mo Xuanxiao's hand, but unexpectedly felt cool and comfortable.
He also has the same water attribute as her.
Mo Xuanxiao gripped her hand tightly, and with just a slight force, he pulled Xiao Xuelian through the narrow gap. Xiao Xuelian nearly fell into Mo Xuanxiao's arms, but quickly steadied herself. She quickly pulled her hand out of Mo Xuanxiao's palm and said politely, "Thank you."
Mo Xuanxiao lowered his arms, "No need to be so polite to me."
Xiao Xuelian wanted to leave on her own and had no intention of following Mo Xuanxiao. Seeing her decisive and unhesitating departure, Mo Xuanxiao couldn't help but follow her for two steps, "Yaoyao."
"Are you calling me?" Xiao Xuelian stopped and had heard more than one person calling her like this.
She couldn't help but think of Chao Yuan's words, "Yaoyao is your name, so you should be Yaoyao." Xiao Xuelian couldn't understand why they would name a flower.
"Where are you going?"
Xiao Xuelian thought for a moment and replied, "Of course, I'll go back to where Xuelian belongs."
"Is it the Immortal Ruins Cold Pond?"
Mo Xuanxiao breathed a sigh of relief. "If you trust me, I can take you back, because my home is there too."
Before Xiao Xuelian could reply, the sky not far away dyed blood red, like a surging tide of flames chasing them. Mo Xuanxiao's face changed, and he immediately dodged to her side to protect her and retreat, "Be careful--"
Qu Yaoyao was frightened by the flames in the sky. The blood color disappeared from her face and she grabbed Mo Xuanxiao's sleeve in fear.
The flames hit the ground, and red lotuses blossomed on the ground. Chao Yuan's figure emerged from under the flames, and his cold voice echoed around, "She won't go anywhere. She can only stay by my side."
Chao Yuan finally caught up with him.
His gaze passed through Mo Xuanxiao and fell on Xiao Xuelian behind him. Chao Yuan, looking pale, reached out his hand to her and coaxed her in a low, deliberately gentle voice, "Yaoyao, come back."
Return to his side.
Xiao Xuelian took two steps back under his gaze, looked at the flames surrounding him, shook her head, and uttered two words in a very determined manner: "No."
She didn't like him, didn't like staying with him, and even more so, she didn't like his blood-red clothes and the flames all over his body.
Chao Yuan's face turned even paler. He lowered his long eyelashes and thin lips, which were still stained with blood. When he heard her refusal, he did not get angry. Instead, he coaxed her more patiently, "Be good and come back."
"Yaoyao, come back to me, I can give you whatever you want."
"But I just want to go back to Hantan." Chao Yuan would not allow this.
Chao Yuan opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something but got stuck. Seeing that Qu Yaoyao was still retreating, he could only move closer to her. However, before he took two steps, Mo Xuanxiao stretched out his arm to stop him. Mo Xuanxiao stood in front of Qu Yaoyao and asked, "Didn't the Demon Lord hear what Yaoyao said clearly?"
"She said she just wanted to go back to Hantan." Back to his Wanmen Xianzong.
Chao Yuan's eyes were cold and gloomy. He had no good temper or patience towards Mo Xuanxiao. He said two short words with a hint of sinister intent, "Get lost."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed Mo Xuanxiao hard with his palm, and the swirling flames almost splashed onto Xiao Xuelian.
Chao Yuan had just finished fighting Huang Ying, and now, despite being seriously injured, he fought Mo Xuanxiao again, showing no sign of weakness. He was decisive and deadly, clearly wanting Mo Xuanxiao dead. Mo Xuanxiao was not one to give in. If possible, he would also take Chao Yuan's life.
They didn't notice that during their life-and-death battle, Qu Yaoyao was retreating further and further away and had already run away from under their noses. Xiao Xuelian looked back while running, and she absent-mindedly stepped on a stone and almost tripped herself.
never mind.
Xiao Xuelian stamped her feet, struggled a bit, and finally ran back to the two of them. Although the loss of a soul had made her cold and indifferent, she couldn't possibly run away during the chaos, especially since Mo Xuanxiao had fought with Chao Yuan because of her.
Chao Yuan was the first one to come in a hurry, and soon Di Shu would come with the demon army to support.
Xiao Xuelian wanted to return to the cold pond as soon as possible, and she didn't want Mo Xuanxiao to be injured or killed because of her, so she held attacking magic in her hands and shouted to Mo Xuanxiao, "Get out of the way!"
Mo Xuanxiao saw her intention and immediately moved sideways, exposing Chao Yuan's position. Chao Yuan also saw what Xiao Xuelian was trying to do. He clearly had the ability to dodge, but he didn't move at all because he didn't believe...
He didn't believe Qu Yaoyao would hurt him.
Snap——
White petals swept across, wrapped in attacking spiritual power, and penetrated Chao Yuan's body straightly. The excessive force blew his clothes and hair, and his red clothes and black hair flew and entangled together.
Like a bird without wings, Chao Yuan fell from mid-air to his knees. Xiao Xuelian, determined to escape, hadn't held back. This move was incredibly powerful, even more painful than the palm strike Huang Ying had given him.
"Puff." Chao Yuan felt a sharp pain in his chest and his whole body went numb. When he clenched his five fingers to grab his chest, he vomited a mouthful of blood.
Petals were still floating in the air, the remnants of Little Snow Lotus's magic. Chao Yuan lowered his gaze and saw the petals scattered across the snow. These petals were pure white with a hint of translucency, very similar to the petals on his little flower. Unfortunately, these petals had passed through his body and were stained by his blood.
Finding a petal that was not stained with blood, Chao Yuan slowly reached out and grasped it tightly in his palm.
"Let's go." Seeing Xiao Xuelian still staring at Chao Yuan blankly, Mo Xuanxiao stepped forward and grabbed her hand, but found that her hands were shaking.
Xiao Xuelian uncontrollably took two steps after him, but her eyes were still glued to Chao Yuan.
It appeared again.
The deep sadness that she dared not touch rushed towards her from all directions, trying to embrace her. Her hands were shaking just as decisively as Xiao Xuelian had hurt Chao Yuan just now, but even she herself didn't understand why she was experiencing these inexplicable emotions.
...Did she do something wrong?
Chao Yuan forcibly took her out of the cold pond. She didn't like him and didn't want to stay with him. She just wanted to return to the cold pond and be her own flower again.
Just as she turned around and wanted to leave with Mo Xuanxiao, a low, hoarse voice came from behind her. Chao Yuan called her name: "Yaoyao."
Xiao Xuelian stopped and heard Chao Yuan sigh and ask her, "Do you really not want to stay with me?"
There was no anger. He did not get mad at her for hurting him. His excessive calmness was like a pool of stagnant water, which made people feel lonely at a glance.
Xiao Xuelian lowered her head and replied seriously, "I don't like fire, I don't like the ostentatious color red, and I'm afraid of anything related to fire."
"Then I can wear white clothes with you in the future."
"I'll soak in the cold pond with you every day, and I won't let any flames appear and hurt you."
Xiao Xuelian was stunned. In her impression, Chao Yuan was very strong and not someone who would easily give in. While she was stunned, she heard Chao Yuan say, "Do you still want to build a snowman?"
"You once said you wanted to go to Kunlun Mountain and build a big snowman. There's a Tianchi Lake there amidst the ice and snow, which is a place more suitable for you to live than the Hantan Lake."
"If you want to go, we can build a home in Kunlun Mountain."
Huo Feng settled in the snowy mountains? Was there something wrong with her ears, or was Chao Yuan teasing her?
Xiao Xuelian couldn't hold it anymore and finally couldn't help but look back at him. There was no joking as she had imagined. Chao Yuan was half-kneeling in the snow, his hair scattered on his cheeks and his thin lips stained with blood. His eyes looking at her were as red as the sun. It was clearly the heat that she feared the most, but she could see deep affection and tenderness in it.
He didn't lie to her, he was discussing it with her seriously, just like the wedding he mentioned last night, he really wanted to marry her.
"Come back to me." Xiao Xuelian saw Chao Yuan reaching out to her again, his five fingers were as slender as jade, and there was a pure flower in his palm.
Her fingers were still trembling. Just as Xiao Xuelian hesitated to raise her hand, she felt a splitting headache and her soul was unstable. Some broken memories burned by fire emerged before her eyes. She heard someone whispering in her ear: "Being a human being is really hard."
【Loving someone is so painful. 】
【Do you still choose to believe him? 】
[Do you want to be burned by the Red Lotus Karma Fire again?]
"No, I don't want to--" Xiao Xuelian held her head and shook her head, her body trembling.
She didn't want to be a human being anymore. She couldn't bear to experience such a bitter and painful love anymore, and she didn't want to die under the red lotus fire again.
“…”
Xiao Xuelian chose Mo Xuanxiao.
When Di Shu arrived with the demon army, she grabbed Mo Xuanxiao's arm and asked him to take her away without looking at Chao Yuan again.
Chao Yuan wanted to get up and chase after him, but as soon as he stood up, ice flowers formed on the place where he was pierced, and blood dyed it red and dripped down. The hot blood quickly melted it and stained a large area on Chao Yuan's clothes.
"Demon Lord, Huang Ying's remaining followers have not yet evacuated. It will be very dangerous if you chase them now." Di Shu hurriedly stopped him.
Chao Yuan really didn't have the energy to chase them. His Xiaohua was really cruel. She didn't hold back at all in order to leave him. The only consolation was that she didn't stab him in the heart.
Watching them walk away, Chao Yuan pressed his aching and sore eyes, his gaze falling on his wrist, where was Lian Chao, whom he had not yet had time to return.
"Catch up."
Chao Yuan coughed twice and coughed up some blood. Without Qu Yaoyao by his side, he restrained the gentle and cold expression in his brows and ordered, "Keep an eye on her for me. No man is allowed to approach."
A golden light flashed, and the magic on the wrist disappeared instantly.
The author has something to say: Yaoyao’s amnesia will not last long, she will regain it on her own initiative.
