The evening in the demon world is beautiful, with gorgeous clouds dyeing half the sky red. Jiuxi put the herbs into the medicine furnace resignedly, then lit a fire, sat on a low stool, and waited quietly.
There is only a door between us, but it feels like there is a galaxy between us.
She didn't dare go in.
The bitter smell of medicinal herbs filled the air. She held her chin with one hand, watching the flickering flames, and fanned the fire from time to time with the other hand. She didn't dare to leave these things to the monsters in the demon world. In fact, she was still worried about him.
It wasn't a serious wound, but she just couldn't bear to let it go.
What a strange personality! She was secretly shocked.
The maid of the demon tribe had been waiting outside the hall. As Jiuxi fanned herself, her eyes became red from the dense mist and she became more and more sleepy. She simply stood up, pounded her waist, and walked around the outer hall for a while. Finally, the sleepiness that was like a tide receded.
She walked into the room with the medicine, but saw the man holding a book, reading intently. She said, "I've left the medicine on the table, remember to drink it."
Without giving him a chance to answer, she walked out. Ming Ye placed the book in his hand on the quilt and stared at the bowl of medicine surrounded by mist in a daze.
Like a puff of light smoke, she flew to the back mountain and slowly landed on the ground. She looked at the green python in the medicinal pool filled with flowers and leaves, sat on a stone, and said with a smile, "Yuan Fan, the demon world is really great."
Every breath here is very familiar to her.
Yuan Fan swam to the edge of the pond. His emerald eyes were now dark, as if he was holding something back. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you capture that last soul?"
Jiuxi took off the cloud-patterned jade pendant that had been hanging from her waist. There was a hint of reluctance in her eyes, and the corners of her lips were bitten white. She said quietly, "I seem to be too selfish... I survived, but... these ten thousand souls will never be reincarnated again..."
The huge snake head rested on the stone wall, and Yuan Fan's body completely sank into the medicine pool. "Your Majesty, you don't owe them anything."
She smiled leisurely, her palms clenched into fists, and the jade pendant in her palms shattered into dust as the demonic power drifted away. She raised her arm, and the jade pendant scattered with the flying ashes. Her eyes flickered slightly as she stared at Yuan Fan. She said softly, "Yuan Fan, do you like me?"
The green snake body suddenly turned red. Yuan Fan turned his head away stubbornly, not daring to look at Jiu Xi. "Your Majesty, Yuan Fan was showing respect to you. I dare not have any improper thoughts."
"Yuan Fan, after I leave, find a good girl from the demon tribe." She patted her back. She was really tired over the years. Her silver hair fell on her shoulders, like a cool breeze blowing across the ground. She smiled, "Yuan Fan, what if I become ugly when I grow old?"
She didn't want to see herself looking so ugly at all.
The sadness in her words made Yuan Fan turn his head away, a sour look welling up in his eyes. Yuan Fan slapped the water surface with his tail, mist rising, and some water splashed into Jiuxi's eyes. Yuan Fan said, "Your Majesty is already an old man, and you are still sad all day long. It's really..."
"What's your attitude now?"
"Your Majesty, who is the last soul?" Yuan Fan hesitated for a while and finally spoke.
"Yuan Fan, please help me with something."
She avoided the topic and spoke with some sadness.
She took out the brocade bag and said somewhat disappointedly, "Yuan Fan, please help me send these souls to the underworld."
