Chapter 7 Quickly Transmigrate! Conquer the Handsome Demon King (13)
It was eerily quiet, with only the sound of rain hitting the trees and my increasingly rapid heartbeat.
I felt unprecedentedly lonely and scared, as if I had been abandoned by the whole world.
"Feng Ziang..." A familiar voice sounded in my ears, and I suddenly opened my eyes. It was Liang Xu!
He stood in front of me, his eyes full of worry.
I didn't have the strength to speak and could only shake my head weakly.
He picked me up, gently holding me as if I were a fragile treasure.
I leaned in his arms, feeling his warm body temperature, and my tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
"Hold on to me." His deep voice carried a hint of unquestionable command.
I didn't ask him what he was going to do, I just held his neck tightly.
He took me and quickly shuttled through the valley.
Thick fog obscured my vision, and I could only feel the whistling of the wind in my ears and his strong heartbeat.
Suddenly, he stopped and put me gently on the ground.
"Close your eyes and cover your ears." His voice was low, but it carried an unquestionable power.
I did so.
Then I heard a noisy sound of footsteps and the clashing of weapons.
I couldn't help but want to open my eyes, but he held me tightly.
"Don't move, trust me." His voice was right next to my ear, with a barely perceptible tremor.
After a long time, the surrounding sounds gradually disappeared, leaving only the sound of the rain.
He finally let me go, I opened my eyes, and the sight before me shocked me.
The bottom of the valley was filled with all kinds of traps, with the bodies of men in black scattered among them. The blood had dyed the ground red, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
"They..." I looked at everything in front of me in disbelief. How... is this possible?
Liang Xu didn't say anything, but just held my hand tightly. His hand was cold, but it made me feel at ease.
He pulled me deeper into the valley. The fog became thicker and thicker, as if it was going to swallow everything.
Suddenly, he stopped and his eyes fell on a hidden cave entrance in front of him.
He turned his head and looked at me, with a complicated light in his eyes.
"Go in, it's safe there." His voice was very soft, but it carried a hint of indescribable...
I followed Liang Xu into the cave.
The cave was very deep, the air was damp and cold, and there was a faint smell of blood.
Liang Xu lit an oil lamp, and the dim light illuminated the narrow space. The walls of the cave were engraved with strange runes, flashing eerie light.
He helped me sit down and began to tend to my wounds.
His movements were gentle and his eyes were focused and serious, as if we were the only two people left in the world.
After treating the wound, he took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to me.
"Eat it." Without hesitation, I took the pill and swallowed it.
The pill melted in my mouth, and a warm current instantly flowed through my body, and the pain was relieved a lot.
I looked up at him, wanting to say something, but he spoke before me.
"I know you have a lot of questions, but now is not the time to explain." His tone was low and serious, "You must leave here as soon as possible."
"Leaving? Where to?" I was a little confused.
"Go to the demon world." He looked into my eyes and spoke word by word.
I was stunned. Going to the demon world?
How is this possible?
I am a cultivator, he is the demon king, between us...
"I know what you are thinking," he seemed to see through my mind, "but now only the demon world can protect you."
I was silent. What he said made sense.
The higher-ups in my sect have already decided to kill me, and I'm afraid there's no place for me in the entire cultivation world.
And the demon world may really be my only way out.
"Okay, I'll go." I took a deep breath and made a decision.
Liang Xu nodded, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.
He led me through a narrow passage to the other end of the cave.
There was a teleportation array there, flashing with a faint blue light.
"Are you ready?" He looked at me with a barely perceptible nervousness in his eyes.
I nodded and squeezed his hand.
He activated the teleportation array. There was a flash of dazzling light. I felt dizzy and then lost consciousness...
When I woke up again, I found myself in a completely unfamiliar place.
It's dark and damp here, and the air is filled with a strong smell of sulfur.
I looked around and found myself in a huge underground palace. The walls were engraved with strange runes and flashed with a faint green light.
"You're awake." A familiar voice came from behind.
I turned around and saw Liang Xu standing behind me with a tired smile on his face.
"This is..." I asked.
"The demon world is my territory." He walked up to me and gently stroked my cheek. "From now on, this is your home."
His words made me feel a little warm, but also a little uneasy.
Can the demon world, a place full of mystery and danger, really be my home?
"Welcome to the demon world, Feng Ziang." A cold voice suddenly sounded, breaking the brief silence.
I looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in a black robe with a sinister face walking out of the shadows. There was a chilling cold light in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, it seems you have brought back an interesting...pet."
"Your Majesty the Demon King, it seems that you have brought back an interesting...pet." The black-clothed man's words were like the tongue of a poisonous snake, sending chills down my spine.
Demonic energy surged around Liang Xu, and he glanced at him coldly. That glance seemed to be able to freeze everything.
I understand that Liang Xu at this moment is the real devil.
I concealed my aura, like a ghost blending into the night, and followed Master Wang carefully.
His itinerary today seemed a little unusual. He did not go to the meeting hall, but walked towards the forbidden area in the back mountain.
My heart was in my throat. What was hidden in this forbidden area?
The immortal cultivators coming and going around me all looked hurried and seemed unaware of my presence.
I held my breath and took every step very carefully, for fear of alarming Master Wang.
Suddenly, Master Wang stopped walking. He seemed to have noticed something. He turned around abruptly and scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes.
My heart tightened. Could it be that he found out?
He said, "Butler Chen, go check it out. I have a feeling someone is following me."
Steward Chen took the order and started searching for me throughout the sect.
I didn't dare to follow Master Wang any further and had to find another place to hide.
I dodged and hid in the marketplace of the immortal world. It was a bustling place with people coming and going, and all kinds of people mixed together. It was the best hiding place.
Butler Chen also followed me into the market, and I played hide-and-seek with him in the bustling crowd.
His strength was far superior to mine. I felt a huge pressure and cold sweat broke out on my forehead.
"Feng Ziang, I know you are here, come out!" Butler Chen's voice was like a thunderclap, exploding over the market.
I was shocked that he had already determined my location...
He approached me step by step, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
"I found you."
