Chapter 95
==================
Xie Tingyun's throat rolled for a while, he looked at Ning's profile, and suddenly he lost the ability to speak.
It was at this time that Xie Tingyun realized that he had always been moved by this person.
He wants peace and well-being, peace and happiness, and the life he wants. He wants to get what he wants... and he also wants to get what he wants.
Xie Tingyun considers himself a mentally mature adult.
When Ning Chen died because of him, Xie Tingyun had grown up.
He swore at that time that if God would have mercy on him and let him meet Ning Chen in his next life, he would definitely be the one who protected Ning Chen, rather than the one who was protected by Ning Chen.
When I was a child, my feelings towards Ning Chen could be described as admiration for my elders.
At that time, the calmness in Xie Tingyun's eyes showed that he was a brother who often appeared impatient but was actually very soft-hearted.
Xie Tingyun knew that he had never been involved in Ning Chen's past, and what he knew was only a small part of Ning Chen.
Now he met Ning Chen again without knowing it. At this time, Ning Chen was a cold and arrogant person but tough on the outside but soft on the inside. He always had some funny and rebellious tastes. Like a proud big cat, he would always get angry because of some strange things, but he was also very easy to coax and his anger would be relaxed with a little effort.
Now that I think about it, Tian Xiao's personality actually has a bit of the tranquility that Xie Tingyun knows.
Their identities have transitioned from being looked down upon and admired to a delicate balance.
Only from this perspective did Xie Tingyun completely understand this person without knowing it.
This person is so arrogant, but always makes people fall in love with him.
What made Xie Tingyun particularly fortunate was that in Ning Shen's eyes, he was also a powerful adult opponent, not a child he had saved as a child, not a kid who could be frightened by random threats, not a weak child who needed charity and sympathy.
Xie Tingyun no longer needs protection. He has grown into a person who is capable of protecting others.
He is capable of loving, and can also find ways to get the love he wants in an upright manner.
At that moment, Xie Tingyun suddenly felt relieved.
Maybe he doesn't have to force himself to be calm all the time.
When he didn't know that Tianxiao was Ning Chen, Xie Tingyun was determined to ensure that Ning Chen's soul could have a safe place to go.
When Xie Tingyun knew that Tian Xiao was the person he had been looking for, he insisted on letting him live peacefully and hoped that he would never suffer from any illness or disaster again.
But perhaps it was fate that Ning Chen was given such an identity.
But his calm character meant that he would never allow himself to be arranged or controlled.
I will not stand idly by and wait for death.
No one can try to control Ning's thoughts and actions.
That's how he should be.
Ning Chen and a bunch of frightened young demons stared at each other. After a while, his face turned dark and he let go of Xie Tingyun uncomfortably.
Xie Tingyun smiled softly and said, "Nothing happened. I know nothing."
Ning Chen: “…”
There's no need to deceive yourself, Xie Tingyun?
You can’t even fool a child!
Ning Chen became angry when he realized that he mistook the young demons setting off fireworks at them as an assassination attempt by the demon clan.
He always tried to assert his own reason even when he was wrong, so he walked through the sights of the surrounding demons and knocked on their heads one by one.
The young demons howled and stared at Ning Chen aggrievedly, not daring to say a word.
The misunderstanding was finally resolved and everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
A Kui took back his weapon with a bitter smile, and comforted their Lord in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty, please calm down. A Kui did not consider it carefully. It is A Kui's fault. Please punish A Kui severely."
Ning Chen glared at him: "Didn't you say that the Canaan tribe didn't set off fireworks during sacrifices? Why are they setting them off now?"
Agui was also hit, and covered his head with his hands, saying pitifully: "... That's because Agui saw that you really liked the fireworks in the human world. When the Holy Son came and set off fireworks for you, you were obviously happy, so Agui... secretly found the chief of the Canaan tribe."
These young demons were the happiest to hear about Aqui's plan. In fact, none of them had ever seen Ning Chen, but they had an inexplicable respect and admiration for the Lord who saved their entire tribe. They had long wanted to see the Lord in person and serve him.
Normally, when the young demons in the tribe were training, these young demons would ignore the adults' objections and insist on following along and training in the same manner. Although the young demons' physical strength and other aspects were not up to par, they were happy to train, so all the demons just let them do what they wanted.
Later on, the chief who was training the young demons would even smile and assign easier tasks to the young demons who were secretly following behind to train. This made the young demons excited and they claimed that they were also mature demons and could be ready to take orders from the Lord when he arrived.
At this moment, they finally seized an opportunity to welcome His Majesty. The young demons rushed the fastest. After the young demons quickly ran to buy fireworks, they rushed up and snatched all the fireworks. They had been lurking in the path that His Majesty must take, from the gate to the way in. It was a pity that they did not expect that His Majesty would be startled at the gate before he passed the first level.
Ning Chen: “…”
Ning Chen was greatly shocked and wanted to strongly condemn them for instructing underage demons to train.
The demon clan leader walked in front and took the lead in bowing deeply to Ning Chen, then knelt down and kowtowed: "Greetings, Your Excellency."
After Xie Tingyun came out of his arms, he stood beside Ning Chen. Seeing this, he quietly stepped back a few steps.
As a result, Xie Tingyun was suddenly grabbed by someone before he could take a few steps back. He saw that it was Ning Chen, and he couldn't help but lower his voice and said: "...You demons are giving you a worship gift, why do you drag me along with you?"
"..." Ning Chen raised his hands to help them up, and at the same time pulled Xie Tingyun back, and said expressionlessly: "No, you come back here."
He can't be embarrassed here alone.
The chief of the Canaan tribe was obviously very happy about Ning Shen's arrival. The gray beard growing from his eyebrows curved into a kind look. He said, "Your Excellency's visit is truly a great honor for Canaan. Please come this way."
The young demons gathered around, frightened by Ning Shen's sudden outburst. They didn't dare to set off the fireworks in their hands, so they walked inside little by little, surrounding the three people very obediently.
Xie Tingyun glanced at the young demons that went against their lively nature, took out fireworks from his storage ring, took a step back, and when Ning Shen turned around in surprise, he set one off at Ning Shen's head.
With a bang, warm sparks exploded on Ning Shen's head, and then extinguished in his hair and shoulders.
Ning Chen: “…”
Ning Chen: “?”
Ning Chen said, "You are trying to make fun of me again, right?"
"Yes," Xie Tingyun nodded, turned around and took out another firework. However, before he could release it this time, Ning Chen was faster than him and directly reached out to grab the firework from a young demon next to him. He even knew to say politely, "borrow it." Then Ning Chen also exploded one above Xie Tingyun.
A small, brilliant firework exploded in the dark night, and this time the sparks fell on Xie Tingyun.
The young demon whose fireworks were snatched away was stunned for a moment, and then went to snatch those from his accomplice next to him. However, before he could snatch them, his accomplice next to him took the initiative and fired a firework into the sky above the young demon to prevent his own fireworks from being snatched away.
Unfortunately, Ning Chen happened to be nearby, and before he could gloat over Xie Tingyun's misfortune for long, he was inexplicably hit by fireworks again.
Ning Chen: “…”
Ning Chen acted decisively. He unceremoniously took out a firework from Xie Tingyun's storage ring, and then blew one up above the group of young demons.
At this point, a fireworks war broke out.
The demon clan leaders who were waiting nearby just watched their children getting along well with the Demon Lord at their leisure, and did not say anything to stop them. They just watched from the sidelines as if they were watching a show.
They all followed Xie Tingyun's example and did not set off fireworks at people or demons. It was enough to set off fireworks above their heads and let the sparks fall down.
Fireworks exploded one after another in the air, making it difficult to take in the sight. The brilliant flames shone into the eyes of every screaming and crazy demon, and there was pure happiness and excitement in those eyes.
Ning Chen started the attack first, and the remaining young demons all focused their fire on Ning Chen. Sparks fell like a waterfall, soaking Ning Chen's body.
In this long dark night, Ning Chen is the only one covered in fireworks.
The pair of dark red eyes were illuminated by the firelight, shining brightly and dazzlingly.
Xie Tingyun was next to Ning Chen, so he was naturally affected as well. And because he provided fire support to Ning Chen, he received the same concentrated fire treatment as Ning Chen.
Ning Chen cursed with a smile, then he held Xie Tingyun in his arms, grabbed a handful of fireworks from Xie Tingyun's storage ring, and blew them all over the young demons' heads in one breath, knocking them back one after another.
With a smile in Xie Tingyun's eyes, he snuggled into Ning Chen's arms, unwilling to leave. He waited until Ning Chen was targeted again and had to let him go before he let Ning Chen go.
Ning Chen alone could not defeat this group of crazy young demons, so Xie Tingyun secretly stuffed two fireworks into the young demon whose fireworks were snatched away by Ning Chen in order to persuade him to rebel. The young demon was so moved that he almost burst into tears on the spot, and turned around and pointed the muzzle of the gun at his companions who had just fought side by side with him.
This trick of inciting the young demons to rebel was really effective. The young demons had finished shooting the fireworks but had not had enough fun yet. However, they had no more fireworks in their hands, so they looked towards Xie Tingyun eagerly. Xie Tingyun couldn't help laughing and gave each of them another bunch of fireworks.
The situation on the field turned around in an instant. The young demons who got the fireworks back vowed to defend their parents who provided them with fun fireworks. They focused their fire on the young demons they had just fought side by side with without any psychological burden.
In the end, the young demons fought each other, but Ning Chen and Xie Tingyun hid themselves and watched the fight like a show, and provided supplies to the young demons in the melee.
In the end, when the young demons were tired of playing, they had almost used up all of Xie Tingyun's fireworks. So the game ended with Ning Chen unexpectedly using the last handful of fireworks that Xie Tingyun had hidden for him to blow away all the young demons.
Very satisfying, peaceful and thoroughly comfortable.
