Xie Qi: "The revival of all things sounds good. This is the one, I'll take your word for it."
Xie Qi took down the cultivation technique and began practicing. With his extremely high talent and strong internal energy, Xie Qi's Rebirth of All Things broke through the third level and entered the fourth level in just five months.
On this day, he opened his eyes and stepped out of the room. He hadn't seen the sky above the Demon Palace for five months, but it was still so blue. Outside the palace, Mu Wenxi stood with his hands behind his back and turned around when he noticed the movement.
"How is your cultivation going?"
Xie Qi: "Thank you for protecting me these past few months. I have already reached the fourth level of the Rebirth of All Things technique."
He could sense that when he was cultivating, Mu Wenxi would come to his room and guard him whenever he had free time.
Mu Wenxi: "Congratulations, I've prepared something delicious for you."
The two walked together toward Changming Palace at the entrance. The servants had already laid out the dishes. Xie Qi hadn't eaten anything delicious for five months, and he ate it all up in one go.
Suddenly, he remembered something: "Are those wolf clan members still around?"
Mu Wenxi: "In prison, you'll have plenty to eat and drink, just waiting for you to take revenge yourself."
Xie Qi nodded: "I'll go check on them."
When Xie Qi arrived at the prison, the three men, apart from being filthy, had recovered from the torture they had suffered and were now lively and energetic. As soon as they saw him, they rushed towards him, but were blocked by the iron cage.
The elder saw him and gritted his teeth, saying, "Xie Qi, you're still alive."
Xie Qi: "It was the seniors on Zhulang Mountain who saved me."
Elder: "He actually agreed to save you, and you actually called that monster 'senior,' hahahaha, you fool! I should have killed you long ago."
Why do you hate him so much?
Elder: "He killed so many people, he should have died long ago."
"Then do you know why he killed so many people?"
Elder: "Ha, if his beloved woman hadn't died in front of him, he wouldn't have gone mad. It's all that damned woman's fault."
Xie Qi thought to himself: I see.
Looking at the group of people in front of him, he stopped talking to them and said, "You can go now."
He walked out of the dungeon, ignoring the commotion of the three people behind him. Unexpectedly, the elder still had the strength to strike him with a palm. Xie Qi sensed the strong wind behind him and countered with a powerful palm strike, using his internal energy to defend.
"Never mind."
The elder looked surprised: "Your inner strength has become so profound after only a few months!"
Xie Qi: "Thanks to my senior."
Elder: "That old bastard actually passed on his power to you, hahaha! If I had known this would happen, I should have killed all his bloodline members."
Xie Qi turned a deaf ear.
He couldn't bring himself to tell the old man to forget this grudge. How innocent were the thousands who died and their descendants? What wrong had the descendants of that predecessor done? When would this cycle of revenge end? Let it stop with his lineage.
Xie Qi turned and left, and the elder's two disciples helped the three of them toward the gate of the Demon Palace.
Mu Wenxi looked at Xie Qi, who seemed sullen, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xie Qi shook his head: "I just feel that things in this world are not just black and white."
Mu Wenxi: "Go up and drown your sorrows," she said, and flew to the rooftop with the wine in her hand. Xie Qi followed her up.
"Would you like to try this wine?"
Xie Qi downed the drink in one gulp: "It's so strong!"
"Hahahahahahahahahaha."
The two drank and chatted happily, singing to the moon. This was the first time they had been so relaxed since returning from Chasing Wolf Mountain, and Xie Qi finally showed his previous smile.
Mu Wenxi: "By the way, keep your skill a secret for now. Don't let anyone know except me. This is your way of protecting yourself if anyone tries to harm you."
Xie Qi: "Okay."
Mu Wenxi looked at Xie Qi, who was slightly tipsy, and asked, "Do you remember what we wanted to do before you took effect from the poison?"
Xie Qi hesitated for a moment: "Soak in a hot spring?"
Mu Wenxi extended his hand to him: "Will you go?"
"certainly".
Under the moonlight, at a hot spring, the two stood by the pool. The next second, Mu Wenxi took off his coat and entered the pool. The hot spring water was warm and very comfortable.
Xie Qi: "Demon Lord?"
Mu Wenxi took advantage of his inattention and pulled him down as well: "You still like to call me Demon Lord, just like before. Fine, whatever you want, call me whatever you want."
Xie Qi was suddenly pulled down and slipped, struggling for a moment. The next second, Mu Wenxi grabbed his waist and stood him steadily in the water. He then realized that the water only reached his upper thighs, but he was soaked and looked very tempting.
At this moment, his waist was still tightly held by the Demon Lord, and the two were only a little over an inch apart.
"Demon—Demon Lord."
Mu Wenxi stared intently at the little beast before him: "Xie Qi, do you remember what I said in the main hall when the wolf clan came to find you that day? It was all true. After this experience, I realized that I cannot lose you. I know that asking you now might be a bit presumptuous, as half a year has passed, but I still want to ask you, are you willing to be my Demon Queen?"
Xie Qiming's eyes widened considerably. He seemed somewhat embarrassed and dared not look at Mu Wenxi. His words were barely audible, like a mosquito's buzz: "I—".
Mu Wenxi was a little afraid of hearing a rejection. She stared intently at the other person, then closed her eyes again: "If you're willing, kiss me. If you're not, leave now. You can stay in the Demon Palace until there's no danger, but I won't see you again."
Xie Qi swiftly kissed the Demon Lord's lips, as lightly as a dragonfly skimming the water.
Mu Wenxi felt the cool touch on his lips and immediately opened his eyes, pulling his wet collar and kissing him.
He was just lightly touching her, and before he knew it, Xie Qi had approached the edge of the pool and sat down on the bench in the pool. Now Mu Wenxi was a little taller than him.
She braced herself against the edge of the pool, seemingly embracing the other person, and turned her head to gently kiss the tip of their ear. It seemed to be a sensitive spot, and the other person unconsciously let out a soft moan.
Xie Qi froze for a moment, not knowing why he was acting this way, clutching tightly at the hem of his wet clothes.
But the other person didn't seem to want to let him go. One hand actually went down from his ear, brushed over his sexy Adam's apple, and then his slightly heaving chest. He felt a chill on his upper body and his clothes were pulled down to the surface of the water.
Under the moonlight, he looked up, his hands clenched into fists.
Mu Wenxi noticed the other's nervousness and gently nibbled on his ear, whispering, "Be good, relax, you seem very nervous."
Xie Qi looked at the person in front of him with a dazed expression: "Demon Lord..."
Mu Wenxi had no intention of letting him go. Her hand touched his chest, and when it reached the water's surface, Xie Qi paused and gasped for breath.
"Demon Lord..."
Mu Wenxi lifted his chin with one hand and kissed his lips.
The other hand was faintly visible beneath the water's surface, and soon the water rippled slightly.
Xie Qi's breathing became more and more rapid, and he suddenly gasped, "My lord..."
His cheeks flushed red, and he dared not lift his head for a long time.
