Chapter 220 Forbidden Land
Mingye's fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, as if he was thinking.
After a long time, a wanton smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Then it's up to you."
Nan smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Master Demon."
She added immediately, "Can I go anywhere?"
Mingye raised an eyebrow, "Of course, but there are many forbidden areas in the Demon Realm. If you go somewhere you shouldn't go, no one can save you."
Nan smiled but said nothing.
And Xuan Si's heart, which had been hanging in the air, was completely dead.
As soon as the Demon Lord said this, Nan Xiao's journey back was smooth and no one stopped him.
Akeno called out: "Xuan Si."
"I'm here."
"Keep an eye on her."
"yes."
······
Nan Xiao locked herself in the room, her fingers unconsciously rubbing the bracelet. It had been less than a day since she sent the message, and even if the Fifth Elders wanted to come, it would take at least ten days.
During this period of time, she needs to get to know the surrounding situation first.
Nan Xiao went over his thoughts roughly in his mind, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, he went directly into the space to check on Xiaoya and Xiaoshitou.
The leaves of the small bud stretched out a lot, and the crystals placed around the small stone were almost absorbed.
Nan Xiao replaced the spiritual liquid and crystals for them.
Touching the leaves of the little bud, I said to myself, "Get well soon."
She always disliked their noise before, but now she hopes they can make some noise. It is better than lying here lifeless.
Nan Xiao talked to them for a while and then started practicing.
···
The next morning.
As expected, Nan Xiao saw Xuan Si's figure in the yard.
She casually greeted him, "Good morning, Xiao Hei."
Xuan Si ignored her and stood aside like an invisible man.
After Nan Xiao washed up and ate something, he swaggered out with Xiao Hei.
There is actually no difference between the demon streets and the human streets.
They don't just like black as described in novels. Instead, they like all colors, and the brighter the color, the more they like it, exuding a colorful and flamboyant vibe from the inside out.
The stalls on both sides of the street are filled with strange objects, and the demons coming and going are of different appearances. Generally speaking, they just sell different things.
For several days, Nan Xiao took Xuan Si to stroll around here and eat skewers there, and they couldn't stop for a moment.
Xuan Si reported all the news to the Demon Lord in detail.
Mingye simply said, "Ignore her and just keep watching her."
"yes"
···
That night, Nan Xiao changed the water and crystals for Xiaoya and Xiaoshi as usual.
She heard a weak voice: "Master."
Nan Xiao's eyes showed a hint of joy, and she sat down next to Xiao Shitou.
"I'm here. How are you, Little Stone?"
Little Stone's childish voice was very weak.
'it hurts. '
Nan Xiao touched its stone body, wrapped it with spiritual power, and gently soothed it, saying softly: "Touch my head and it will stop hurting."
"Master, the smell on you is so familiar to me."
Nan Xiao was puzzled: "Smell?"
She subconsciously smelled herself, but there was no smell.
"Well, Master, hug me and smell this scent. I will feel very comfortable and it won't hurt so much."
Nan Xiao put Xiao Shitou on her legs. She sniffed around but could not smell any scent from Xiao Shitou's mouth.
She sat for a while holding the little stone.
Little Stone suddenly said, "Master, I remember where this smell comes from."
'This is where I was born.'
"Master, take me home. I will recover quickly and become very strong. I will protect you well."
Nan Xiao was a little confused by Xiao Shitou's intermittent words.
It took some time to sort it out.
Although she bought the little stone from Linglong Pavilion, she really didn't know its specific origin.
Now, just a smell can remind it of its birthplace.
Does that mean that the Demon Clan is where Little Stone was born?
She went to many places during this period, and took Xuan Si around every day. That means that somewhere she went, she was contaminated with the smell that Xiao Shitou mentioned.
Nan Xiao agreed immediately: "Okay, I'll take you to find it tomorrow."
"Yeah."
After a while, Little Stone fell into sleep again in a daze.
Nan Xiao didn't move anymore and simply held it in his arms and meditated all night.
The next morning.
Nan Xiao used a shrinking talisman to shrink the small stone and placed it in his side pocket.
After finding Xuan Si, he confidently said, "The scenery yesterday was great. Let's go for another tour today."
Xuan Si: “.........”
As long as you are happy.
The two went out again, and Nan Xiao would stay for a while wherever they went.
She woke up the little stone and asked, "Is this here?"
'no. '
After receiving Xiao Shitou's answer, Nan Xiao turned around and said to Xuan Si: "I've had enough of this place. Let's go to the next place."
Xuan Si still followed behind, acting like a transparent mute.
The last place is the beast fighting arena.
The circular venue was paved with huge black stones, and the surrounding stands were stacked up layer upon layer, packed with demons.
Dust was flying in the field. A young demon boy, holding a sharp blade, was confronting a ferocious monster.
The demons around were shouting and betting frantically, betting on which side would win.
The roars of monsters and the clashing of sharp blades were intertwined.
The air was filled with blood and excitement, and the entire beast fighting arena was shrouded in the demons' enthusiasm for battle.
Nan Xiao frowned unconsciously, feeling very noisy.
Asked: "Is that so?"
The little stone moved: "Master, I can smell that smell here, but not here."
'That's around here.'
Little Stone whispered: "I don't know either."
Nan smiled and consoled him: "Just keep looking, you'll find it eventually."
"I'll take you for a walk outside first. If the smell is strong there, tell me."
"good."
Nan Xiao finished speaking and walked straight out. Xuan Si frowned, looking puzzled, not understanding her actions.
Why are you leaving just after arriving?
Nan Xiao walked around twice, then followed the path that Xiao Shitou said had the strongest smell.
The road became more and more remote, from the bustling downtown to a remote and deserted path.
The buildings on both sides have also changed from bustling shops to overgrown weeds.
The cold wind whistled past, rustling the withered grass by the roadside.
The mountains in the distance are continuous, but they are shrouded in thick haze, exuding an indescribable sense of depression.
Xuan Si directly blocked her way.
"The area ahead is forbidden."
Nan Xiao blinked, curiosity in her eyes: "Can I go and take a look?"
"How about you come with me?"
Xuan Si frowned and emphasized, "It's very dangerous."
Nan Xiao discussed it with Xiao Shitou.
"Would it be good for your injury if you didn't go in and just stayed outside?"
'Not very useful.'
Little Stone said anxiously: "Master, I have a strong feeling that there is something very important to me in here."
'Okay, I know.'
Nan Xiao calmed Xiao Shitou down.
He said to Xuan Si who was standing beside him, "With you here, I have nothing to fear. Follow me."
If she couldn't enter or leave the forbidden area safely even with Xuan Si around, wouldn't she be even more unprotected if she were alone?
Nan Xiao had just taken two steps when her body suddenly froze.
Xuan Si stood beside her and used a series of smooth moves to pack her up and throw her onto the magic sword.
Nan Xiao: “…………”
Did this demon suddenly change his nature?
