Chapter 80: Know Your Own Mood
"Okay."
Nan Xiao was silent for a while before speaking. He originally thought that he would have to talk a lot and use threats to gain control, but in the end, he agreed before he could even finish his words.
She reached out her hand, intending to touch Mingcheng's head and praise him for being so good, but Mingcheng's reaction was faster than hers, and he subconsciously put his hands up to cover his head.
Nan Xiao: “…”
"What are you blocking? I'm not going to hit you. Come here."
Mingcheng rolled his eyes at her. He had already received several slaps in the face for not believing it. The marks on his face were all evidence.
Nan Xiao tried to pull the man over, but he didn't budge. She then remembered that the boy still had a Thousand Jin Talisman attached to him. It must have been quite difficult for him to hold on for so long.
"If you don't come over here, I will really hit you." Nan Xiao had a cold face, his eyes were wide open, and one hand was clenched into a fist threateningly. He looked really fierce.
Mingcheng was speechless and moved over reluctantly, "We agreed not to hit me."
When had he, the dignified and honorable Little Demon Lord, ever been so humble?
I will never sneak out alone again. The world outside is so scary.
Nan Xiao lifted his chin with one hand, stared at the scarlet streak on his neck, frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to stop the bleeding? Why don't you turn your head away?"
Twisting your neck like this will make the blood flow faster.
"oh"
Mingcheng saw the ointment in her hand and turned away awkwardly. It turned out that she wanted to apply the ointment on him.
It seems that she still has some humanity. No, she might also be attracted by his appearance.
At such a young age, he's so lustful, bah, so vulgar...
Mingcheng's thoughts began to drift away, and various ideas flashed through his mind.
In his eyes, Nan Xiao's image has completely changed from a cunning and annoying child to a lustful person.
When Nan Xiao approached, a fresh and elegant medicinal fragrance came. The unique aroma instantly lingered around his nose. Mingcheng's ears turned red unconsciously, and the messy thoughts in his mind disappeared completely in an instant.
Nan Xiao scooped out a piece of ointment with his fingers and smeared it casually on his wound.
The ointment worked very quickly. As soon as it was applied, the wound on Mingcheng's neck stopped bleeding quickly.
"Okay, the bleeding has stopped."
Nan Xiao stood up straight, and without waiting for Mingcheng to react, he said sternly, "From now on, I am your master. To prevent you from having other intentions, you need to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao. In this life, you will be loyal to me alone, and my safety will always come first. If you disobey, I am willing to accept the punishment of the Heavenly Dao and be banned from reincarnation forever."
Mingcheng: ""
The slight bit of good impression I had just had faded away. This guy is still annoying.
Seeing that he was hesitant to move, Nan Xiao lost all patience. She frowned slightly and urged him, "Hurry up, I have other things to do. If you don't want to, I can only do as Senior Sister said and cripple you..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mingcheng reluctantly swore an oath. He stretched out his hand and said in a sullen tone, "I, Mingcheng, swear to the Heavenly Dao that in this life, I will only be loyal to..."
Mingcheng paused and asked:
"What's your name?"
"Nan Xiao."
"I, Mingcheng, hereby swear to the Heavenly Dao that I will be loyal to Nan Xiao alone in this life. Nan Xiao's safety will always be my top priority. If I violate this, I will be punished by the Heavenly Dao and will never be reincarnated again."
As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual energy around him surged, and an invisible mark fell on Mingcheng's brow.
"Satisfied, Master..." Mingcheng's eyes drooped and his tone was weak, as if he had lost all his strength.
"Yeah." Nan Xiao nodded, as if remembering something, and then asked, "I think your demon tribe's belief is the demon god. Can you come up with another one using the demon god?"
I don’t know how much restriction the Heavenly Dao has on the demons. To be on the safe side, their demon faith must also have a double layer of protection to feel at ease.
"Don't go too far." Mingcheng said, gritting his teeth.
"Oh, forget it." Nan Xiao picked up the sword and approached him with an expressionless face.
Mingcheng felt a chill down his spine and forced a flattering smile: "Master, everything you said is right. How could it be excessive? It is me who is ignorant and does not understand the Master's good intentions. I, Mingcheng, swear an oath to the Demon God."
"Master, the oath is complete. You are so frail, it's not appropriate for you to carry this sword. It will tire you out. Put it down now."
Mingcheng pulled the sword out of her hand and threw it out of the cell. After making sure that it was out of Nan Xiao's reach, he felt much more at ease.
"Okay, take these two pills and I'll take you out." Nan Xiao put the pills in front of him and looked at him with a smile.
Mingcheng didn't hesitate and swallowed it directly. Anyway, the result would not be worse than it was now.
At worst, after he gets out of here, he can escape back to the demon clan overnight. As long as he doesn't touch anything related to her, this oath will not backfire on him.
"Very good, let's go." Nan Xiao was very satisfied with his understanding. He reached out and tore off the Qianjin Talisman on his back, and threw the key to the soul-sealing lock to him.
She started to walk out, leaving only the words: "Follow me."
Mingcheng felt his body lighten. Looking at Nan Xiao's figure in front of him, he thought to himself, could it be the pill she had just given him?
It seems that she is not so annoying. Mingcheng unlocked the soul-sealing lock and chased after her.
As soon as he walked out of the prison, without the cover of the formation, he attracted waves of attention wherever he went.
"Or, why don't you cover your face?" Nan Xiao suggested.
Wherever she went, people looked at her like a monkey, and she really didn't like that kind of look.
Mingcheng touched his face and murmured, "Don't you like it?"
Her eyes were bright when she first saw him, and he remembered it very clearly.
Nan Xiao glanced at him lightly, then retracted her gaze and said calmly, "I don't like it."
She admitted that his appearance was indeed stunning when she first saw him, but the world of cultivation was full of handsome men and beautiful women. Not to mention her fellow disciples, even Chen Wenxuan and those annoying guys from the Heavenly Sword Sect were good-looking. After seeing so many handsome men and beautiful women, she was naturally immune to them.
Mingcheng pursed his lips and used a little magic to cover up his features, turning himself into an ordinary person.
As soon as Nan Xiao brought him back to the City Lord's Mansion, they met Su Xun running out in a hurry.
"Fourth Senior Brother, where are you going in such a hurry?" Nan Xiao stopped him and asked.
"Hey, Junior Sister, I'm looking for you."
"Looking for me? What do you want from me?" Nan Xiao asked in confusion.
The two of them walked into the mansion while talking, leaving Mingcheng alone outside.
Mingcheng thought, why not just run away now...
Just as he had this thought, Nan Xiao's voice came from inside the mansion, calling him: "What are you standing there for? Do you want me to invite you in?"
“Oh, here it comes…”
Mingcheng looked regretful. He wished he would have known better.
Su Xun and Nan Xiao sat down in an octagonal pavilion in the mansion. The maids in the mansion saw them and served them a cup of tea and a few plates of snacks, then left.
"Junior sister wants to discuss something with you..." Su Xun said as he looked at Mingcheng who was walking outside, and combined it with what Nan Xiao had just said.
What he wanted to say was thrown out of his mind.
Wei Wei pointed at Ming Cheng and asked doubtfully, "Who is this..."
