Chapter 285 Meeting without Recognition
She announced softly, and the ghost blood vine reluctantly withdrew from Feng Lan's body.
Feng Lan collapsed to the ground, the blood-colored rune between his eyebrows faintly visible.
The fox clan leader breathed a sigh of relief, but he also knew that his son had lost his freedom from then on.
At this moment, Gao Huohuo suddenly felt a severe headache, and some fragments of memory came flooding back like a tide.
Shadow Moon Sect? What kind of place is that?
"Your Highness? Are you okay?" Huan Ye asked with concern.
Gao Huohuo suppressed his headache and waved his hand: "It's okay. I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while."
The patriarch immediately ordered someone to take her to the prepared guest room.
Before leaving, Gao Huohuo looked back at Feng Lan who was still half-kneeling on the ground.
She found that he was looking at her with a complicated look - there was resentment, fear, and a hint of imperceptible... curiosity?
At the same time, when Zhong Hanshang and his four companions entered the territory of the demon clan, it was the season when the mandragora flowers were in full bloom.
The air was filled with the sweet fragrance of flowers, but it could not dispel the gloom in their hearts.
"Manman, have you heard any news about Princess Mu Ling recently? Or about someone named Gao Huohuo?"
Hearing Ye Lingyu's words, Manman shook her head and then asked curiously:
"Sister Chen's real name is Gao Huohuo? Then can I call her Sister Huohuo from now on?"
Two months of fruitless searching had already exhausted the patience of the four people, and they were far less optimistic than Manman.
Zhong Hanshang’s knuckles were clenched white - if Huo Huo was safe and sound, he would never have stayed away from Yingyue Sect for so long.
"Fellow Daoist Zhong, take out the device that Fourth Senior Brother gave you when he left and have a look at it."
Zhong Hanshang tiredly took out the bronze compass, but the needle remained motionless.
These days he almost wanted to stare a hole out of this magic weapon, but he never got any response.
"Junior sister, now that she has come to the demon tribe, where will she go?" Lou Chongxiao muttered to himself, his eyes sweeping across the mountains in the distance.
Three days later, the compass suddenly emitted a dazzling green light.
"The tracker is responding, let's go!"
Zhong Hanshang's shout startled the birds in the forest. Everyone galloped on their swords, their clothes rustling in the wind.
When they arrived, they found that it was a demon market.
Manman pointed at the man in fancy clothes in the distance: "That's Feng Lan, the young master of the Fox Clan. Next to him is his brother Huan Ye, and..."
After Manman finished speaking, she didn't see any movement from the four people, so she turned around to look.
She realized that the four people's eyes were fixed on the woman in black at the same time, and she also noticed the bracelet on the black girl's wrist.
"Ghost Blood Vine..." Manman took a breath, "She is Sister Huohuo?"
Feng Lan's voice came from a distance: "Manman, why are you hanging out here today?"
A flash of cold light flashed. Gao Huohuo suddenly attacked, sending two sharp palm strikes straight at the throats of Zhong Hanshang and Ying.
Feng Lan froze in shock, and the teacup in Huan Ye's hand smashed to pieces with a "bang".
"Manman, did you bring these people here?" Feng Lan's voice suddenly turned cold.
The flower demon girl turned around at a loss, only to see Ye Lingyu and Lou Chongxiao also looking shocked.
The murderous intent surging in Gao Huohuo's eyes was as real as if he had an irreconcilable hatred with those two people.
Could it be about the demon clan... Lou Chongxiao was shocked.
"Junior sister! Are you okay?" Lou Chongxiao couldn't help but call out loudly.
The shout made Gao Huohuo pause slightly.
She turned her head and looked at him, her brows suddenly furrowed and her face turned pale in an instant.
"Fire!"
"Your Highness!"
The two demons and two monsters rushed forward to support Gao Huohuo, but were stopped by her.
"Feng Lan, I'm not feeling well. I'm going back first."
Before he finished speaking, the man turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.
In the fox clan's bedroom, Gao Huohuo's knuckles turned white as he gripped the bed curtain.
The voices calling "Junior Sister" kept echoing in her mind, overlapping with a certain scene deep in her memory - someone in the stone chamber of the Shadow Sect also called her like this.
But she was clearly called "Senior Sister Gao" in the Shadow Sect.
So what went wrong? And why were they staying with the demon cultivators?
The evil cultivators were not good people. They had trapped her for thirty years. Sooner or later, she would find out the real culprit behind the scenes and avenge herself.
After her last headache, she thought of the thirty years of imprisonment.
Every day is engraved in her memory like a knife or an axe.
So when she saw a demon cultivator again, even if he was only half-demon, he would be her enemy.
"Next time I see you, I will kill you."
She whispered to the void, and the ghost blood vine on her wrist sensed her owner's emotions, and its sharp barbs stood up.
At this time, Feng Lan was leading everyone back to the fox clan.
The maid hurried over to report: "Her Royal Highness has ordered that she not see anyone."
"Junior sister..." Lou Chongxiao's voice choked in his throat.
Those strange eyes seemed to be looking at a stranger they had never met before.
Ying stroked the hilt of the sword silently. It was obvious that the two of them had reconciled before leaving.
He had imagined countless reunion scenes, but he never expected that they would face off with weapons.
Even if she hated Zhong Hanshang, why would she involve him as well?
Zhong Hanshang's eyes were filled with pain, and Huo Huo looked at him with eyes full of murderous intent.
Let him realize how stupid his original decision was!
It was obvious that he had already entered Huo Huo's heart before this.
The only thing to be thankful for is that she is still alive and safe.
Even if she hated him and wanted to kill him, he could accept it as long as she was still there.
"Young Master Feng Lan, Her Royal Highness the Princess invites you and Young Master Huan Ye to come over!"
The maid's words interrupted the thoughts of everyone present.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Zhong Hanshang felt that the knife in his heart stabbed deeper.
"Your Highness." Feng Lan gently knocked on the carved wooden door.
A cold response came from inside: "Come in."
Huanye noticed that the vines wrapped around Gao Huohuo's fingers were wriggling restlessly. "Are you feeling better?"
"No problem." When she raised her eyes, a trace of blood flashed in her eyes, "Bring those two demon cultivators here for me."
"Do you have a grudge against them?" Feng Lan asked cautiously.
Gao Huohuo suddenly chuckled, and there was a chilling chill in his laughter.
"Everything related to demons must die, no matter if they are demon cultivators or half-demons."
Hearing this, Huan Ye and Feng Lan looked at each other, not knowing how to start.
At the same time, in front of a carved window of a high-rise building of the human race.
The young man in brocade clothes shook the glass cup, and the scarlet wine reflected his playful smile:
"Interesting! Gao Huohuo actually has a grudge against the demons!"
Huan Ye bravely replied, "Those two people claim to be old friends of yours, and they are waiting outside the hall."
"Old friend?" Gao Huohuo seemed to have heard a joke, and the vines on his wrist suddenly grew three feet long.
"Then I'd like to see what kind of old friend he is."
When she appeared in the hall, sitting high on the throne transformed from the ghost blood vine, she glanced at Zhong Hanshang and Ying and said calmly:
"I heard from Huan Ye that you all claim to be my old friends, but why don't I remember being friends with demon cultivators?"
When Ying heard this, he took a step forward eagerly.
"Huohuo, have you forgotten how we met in Tianyou Ridge?"
Gao Huohuo tilted his head, looking confused like an innocent child.
"I only know that I was trapped in the Demon Tribe for thirty years, but I don't remember ever going to Tianyou Ridge."
