Like this, Ji Yan cried, and the surrounding demons watched her cry.

Chi Yang looked at his demon master and then at the mortal girl, slightly surprised.

Who is this girl? She yelled at the demon lord directly, even riding on the demon lord’s back, and was extremely sharp-tongued, but the demon lord didn’t kill her.

While looking at Ji Yan, Yin Xuezhuo raised his hand thoughtfully and touched his injured shoulder with his fingertips. A sharp pain came straight up. It was a bit painful, but he hardly reacted.

Perhaps because of years of injuries, he had grown accustomed to pain to the point that he didn’t even frown anymore.

Not only that and even this kind of ordinary injury would make him soberer.

Yin Xuezhuo’s eyes were long and narrow, the corners of his eyes were bright red, and the blood dripping from his fingertips made him extremely excited.

However, Ji Yan’s tears surged even harder.

Yin Xuezhuo looked at her weirdly for a moment, slowly walked up to her, his cold hand clasped her chin, and made her look up to him.

Seeing that her face was full of tears, he became more and more irritable, and coldly reprimanded: “Can’t even stand this pain?”

The more he was like this, the more Ji Yan began to weep, her lips trembling continuously, and her head spinning endlessly with curse words at him, but she couldn’t utter a single word.

She was in pain because of him, and he still resented her fear of pain?!

He was really too much, Ji Yan was so angry, but she grabbed his clothes and wept more and more inexplicably, and finally, she couldn’t tell whether it was because of the pain or feeling wronged.

Everything was settled.

Ji Yunqing escaped, Linshuang City was destroyed, Xuan bing Scale was obtained, and she was also poisoned.

He will not accompany her to die with her, he will make her a human gu.

Ji Yan was so dizzy from crying, her body became lighter, and Yin Xuezhuo picked her up.

Instead of carrying her gently, he hugged her face to face like a child, he tightly pursed his thin lips, grabbed Ji Yan’s hand, and put it on his waist. He wanted Ji Yan to hold him as usual, so he held her and flew up, but she was in pain and had no strength even if she was leaning on him her body couldn’t help but slide down, making it difficult to stand.

Yin Xuezhuo frowned, a trace of irritation flashed under his eyes, and his hand reached towards her neck several times, wishing to strangle her to death and let it go without a thought.

With a face full of reluctance and aggravation, he bent down again and picked Ji Yan horizontally.

Instinctively, her body curled up and head buried in the side of his neck, while her warm, moist breath caressed against his bare skin just as if three feathers were brushing against him.

His body stiffened, and after a long time, he quietly tightened his arms.

A huge wing spread out behind him and he fled up.

Ji Yan only felt the sound of wind in her ears, the air around her gradually thinned out, and even the sunlight gradually faded away. Feeling dizzy and in pain, she only knew she was being taken somewhere.

All the sounds around her were drifting away.

She unconsciously pinched her palm with her fingers, her consciousness was already muddled.

It hurts, it just hurts.

Pain and tired, a string had been taut inside her brain, making her wander between unconsciousness and consciousness repeatedly.

Yin Xuezhuo felt a slight tingling in his palm and looked down at her.

But the next moment his neck was tightened.

Ji Yan raised her hand and wrapped her arms around his neck, almost subconsciously, pressing her whole person to him.

“I pain…” Her tears were hot, and each one of them fell on his cold skin, scalding  him like a hot iron.

The person in his arms became a hot potato, and he almost threw her out.

But the groggy Ji Yan didn’t notice anything and she didn’t even know what she had done and just hugged Yin Xuezhuo and said the word “pain” repeatedly.

~She really looks painful.

It was difficult for him to comprehend why she was afraid of pain, but anyway he raced ahead. Upon returning to the Demon Realm, he didn’t respond to anyone and flash passed directly in front of Ten Thousand Demons, returning to his palace where he lived. He wanted to find a place to put Ji Yan down to rest, but after circling around for a long time, he found that there was not even a bed in his place.

The nightmare did not need to sleep, as a result, there was no place for humans to rest in Yin Xuezhuo’s palace.

He frowned irritably, and Ji Yan in his arms was still crying out in pain. Feeling annoyed, he simply walked out of the place, raised his hand, and whistled a locust tree outside the place, then using a spell he made it into a bed and put it in the corner of the palace. 

After that, he put Ji Yan on the bed and sat next to her, watching her silently.

‘Humans need to sleep, and if they don’t sleep, they will die’. That’s what Ji Yan told him back then, but now as he laid her down to sleep, he could still feel her breath becoming weaker and weaker.

Is she still in pain?

With that thought, he raised his hand and summoned a butterfly, and ordered, “Go and call Qiu Mi over.”

Soon, a woman dressed in blue slowly walked into the palace with a graceful figure, stepping on the cold floor tiles, the soles of her shoes clanging against them making a crisp noise.

Qiu Mi was born beautiful, her long hair draped behind her back, her captivating eyes curled up slightly, and her red lips glowing.

“Demon Lord.” Qiu Mi walked up to Yin Xuezhuo and nodded respectfully.

Yin Xuezhuo responded with a cold “um”.

Qiu Mi didn’t expect that coming back the first thing the Demon Lord would do was to call her over. She was a little surprised and couldn’t help but raise her head slightly, but her gaze fell on the bed that was made just now, and then at the mortal Ji Yan on it. Could not help being curious, she asked, “Does the Demon Lord want to eat her? Do you want to eat stewed or fried?”

Seeing the Mortal, Qiu Mi’s first reaction was to eat.

As long as it wasn’t directly swallowed by magic, then it would be a bit difficult to eat a large living person, but demons usually have experience in devouring mortals, and by cooking deliciously, they can make the food more appealing.

It just needs some skills.

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

“No.” Yin Xuezhuo sat up straight slightly, his long hair swaying on his shoulders along with his movement.

He was tall and had long legs and arms. Even if he sat languidly, he still carried the aura of a haughty king, watching Qiu Mi who was standing in front of him.

He raised his finger to his shoulder, “Heal me.”

Qiu Mi: “Huh?”

“Heal.” Yin Xuezhuo indifferently swept her a glance, his eyes were cold and frightened, “I was injured, she …… I hurt.”

With a cold look on his face, he didn’t say the connection between him and Ji Yan, and stubbornly said “I hurt” abruptly, with full of awkwardness, which was incompatible with his indifferent and arrogant temperament.

If Ji Yan was awake, she would have laughed at him.

She was just talkative and annoying. Yin Xuezhuo was inexplicably anxious, and he said to himself: ‘Once she doesn’t feel any pain, I will immediately refine her into Human Gu.’

The thought of refining human gu made him irritable and want to kill people for no reason.

Qiu Mi’s expression suddenly became weird as she looked at Yin Xuezhuo.

~What’s going on? The Demon Lord said… he hurt? Am I imagining things?

Will he hurt? Previously the Demon Lord almost broke his wings one time, but he didn’t ask her to heal his injuries.

“Demon Lord. Subordinates…” She hesitated and was even more afraid to approach the Demon Lord.

Although she was proficient in healing techniques, she had never treated the Demon Lord before for any injuries. One was that the Demon Lord is too strong to be hurt, and the other is… Yin Xuezhuo does not believe in everyone, and won’t let anyone get within three steps of him, let alone touch him.

Even if he was injured, he would always endure silently by lying on the wind platform behind the palace, slowly recovering with the self-healing ability of the nightmare, as if he would never feel pain.

This was the first time he asked Qiu Mi to heal his wounds. So this was completely normal for her to react this way.

Qiu Mi tensed all over and took a step closer with caution. When she stepped into the distance of three steps, she was a little nervous, and a sense of intimidation and coercion from the Demon Lord engulfed her, making her breathless.

Qiu Mi raised her hand and slowly covered the wound on Yin Xuezhuo’s shoulder.

A faint white light, soft and delicate like a spring breeze, slowly poured into the torn flesh.

Feng Liuyun fought with all his strength to land a blow, and it would definitely hurt Yin Xuezhuo, and the injury was not minor. Qiu Mi carefully healed the wound, watching Yin Xuezhuo’s face nervously.

His eyes were slightly closed, his eyelashes were firmly pressed down, motionless.

It was as if he didn’t feel anything at all.

However, as time passed, a killing intent gradually overflowed from his body. It was Qiu Mi’s natural instinct to perceive danger. She could feel that Yin Xuezhuo wanted to kill her.

After retreating from three steps, Qiu Mi’s face was pale, kneeled on the ground, bowed her head respectfully, and said: “The subordinates have relieved the pain for the Demon Lord. The demon lord was injured by a talisman. There is no major problem, and it will heal fast as before.”

Yin Xuezhuo let out an “um” casually, Qiu Mi was relieved and heard him say: “Go and prepare for the Fire of Nine Serenities(Jiuyou).”

The fire of Jiuyou was the fire that has been burning for years in the depths of the Mountains of Demon Territory. The flame was blue, as cold as ice, but it could refine everything in the world. It could be used to refine magical tools and living creatures. If the cultivation was not high enough, the soul would be burned as soon as one got close to it.

Yin Xuezhuo took Jiuyou as his own since he came to the Demon Realm many years ago, and refined a part of it into his body, but it had not been fully integrated. When he wanted to refine a treasure, he would still choose to take the Jiuyou if he sought perfection.

Qiu Mi responded and asked Ji Yan again, “This mortal, can the demon master hand it over to his subordinates?”

In the past, mortals were handed over to the people below to dispose of them casually.

Yin Xuezhuo frowned, “No, I will take care of it myself.”

Qiu Mi: “???”

Didn’t she mean to take care? ! Wait… The devil just said that he will take care of her personally, take care of this mortal?

Qiu Mi’s expression was bewildered for a moment and quickly calmed down, bowed her head, and retired.

Soon afterward, Ji Yan woke up leisurely.

She was lying on the bed, feeling dizzy and uncomfortable. She vaguely felt a hard surface underneath her body and it was very uncomfortable and there was not even a pillow. Ji Yan twisted uncomfortably and slowly opened her groggy eyes, and the first thing that greeted her site was that Yin Xuezhuo was looking down at her with a look of seeing a little fool.

Ji Yan: ? ? ? What do you mean by this expression?

After noticing that she was looking over, Yin Xuezhuo instantly turned his gaze away from her.

“Don’t go back to sleep when you wake up.” He got up and walked a few steps in the empty hall, stepping on the ground as silently as a cat. A shimmer of light in the hall reflected on his long, dark hair, which fell behind his back and it looked as soft and shiny as silk.

Ji Yan just discovered that she was lying on a “bed” or sleeping in an empty palace.

This bed was square in shape and was extremely ugly. It was very perfunctory and she felt more like a coffin than a bed. Ji Yan was stunned by her own brain makeup.

Moreover, this coffin was out of place with its magnificent surroundings.

The palace was extremely wide. If it was to be described in a nutshell, it was about half the size of a square, which could accommodate 50 people for figure skating, and it was very high. Ji Yan estimated that it was about the height of a two or three-story building.

It covered a wide area, and the walls were extremely magnificent, carved with exquisite patterns, and inlaid with beautiful jade stones emitting a faint glow that did not require lighting.

This was very much in the style of Xuan Fantasy world.

This should be the palace where Yin Xuezhuo lives.

Although Mr. Yin’s experience was relatively miserable, his life in Demon Realm was really extravagant. Ji Yan thought of the small apartment she rented in her world, and there was a stark gap between rich and poor.

Ji Yan couldn’t resist getting up and looking around.

She walked around the walls and couldn’t help but reach out and touch them. Since Yin Xuezhuo couldn’t get ten steps away from her, he could only follow her with a weird expression as watching her touching the walls, while her eyes were shining like a bright star.

She seems very excited?

He didn’t quite understand her emotions, so he just watched her hopping around, as if watching a new pet familiarizing herself with the surroundings, and after walking around the palace, she hugged a large pillar breathlessly, exclaiming: “The place is so big, I’m exhausted!”

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

Is it big?

Ji Yan moved around, sweating, and found that she was in good spirits now, as if her shoulders no longer hurt.

Huh? Will it heal so soon?

Ji Yan curiously came to Yin Xuezhuo’s side, poked his shoulder with her hand, and felt a stabbing pain hitting her, which made her bare her teeth in pain.

“Looking for trouble?” Yin Xue’s eyelids were drooping, his eyes gloomy watching withdraw her hand resentfully.

“I want to see if you are completely healed.” Ji Yan muttered, “I thought your self-healing ability was amazing. Even if you were smashed into a sieve, you could grow well in an instant. It wasn’t like I overestimated you.”

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

He raised his hand and hit her head “Shut up!.”

Shut up, just shut up.

She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead for a few minutes before she withered. Yin Xuezuo didn’t hit very hard this time and she was quickly attracted to other places. Opening the main hall door, she poked her head out and looked out curiously to the left and right.

Wow! This is the Demon Realm.

Instead of the chaos, she had imagined, it was magnificent, surrounded by a sea of mountains that stretched beyond her sight and the palace where she was in was actually floating in the air, surrounded by countless iron towers. And the sky was shrouded in red light, with a full moon hanging in the sky, actually a red moon.

Much more spectacular than meteor showers.

“Yin Xuezhuo, I want to go down and take a look.” Ji Yan came running back and shook his sleeve, very excited, like a little kid going to an amusement park for the first time.

Yin Xuezhuo glanced down at her hand holding the corner of his clothes. It was unsure when it started but from some point in time, Ji Yan liked to pull him whenever she had no work. If she wanted to play, she would pull him. She even pulled him when he was in a critical situation and if he was okay he would be pulled by her. But after everything was over, she would dislike him for being too cold to the touch.

As if to confirm his thoughts, she immediately retracted her hand and muttered, “It’s freezing.”

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

But Ji Yan was still unwilling, so she stretched out her leg and touched his foot again, “Go…”

Yin Xuezhuo quickly took a step back, trying to keep his distance from her. As a result, he just took a step back, Ji Yan took another step forward, he retreated again, and she advanced again, it went on like this until his back leaned against the wall, staring at her.

Ji Yan: I always find this position is weird.

Yin Xuezhuo was also stunned for a moment, seeming to realize that such a position did not fit his prominence, and immediately turned into a cloud of black air that brushed past Ji Yan’s ears and landed behind her.

“Call…” he mused, before saying the word “Dad”, Ji Yan very skillfully called: “Dad!”

Totally spineless.

“Go.”

He glanced at her disgustingly, raised his hand to lift her up, and swept out of the palace condescendingly.

The moment the Demon Lord stepped out of the palace, there was a strange movement outside.

Countless little demons felt the aura of the Demon Lord’s approach, and under the heavy pressure, they all retreated one after another. The sound of the demons retreating was like a muffled thunder in the sky, rolling in, and underneath was an undulating black wave moving visibly in large numbers.

Ji Yan was shocked again, and Yin Xuezhuo’s kingly air was rushing towards his face.

The moment her soles stepped on the ground, she began to run wildly again as a kid.

Running down a hundred steps, she gasped for breath. Before she could rest she saw a particularly high platform nearby with countless iron chains hanging around and shouting coming from above. The sound seemed very lively, so she tugged at Yin Xuezhuo again, wanting to go up.

Yin Xuezhuo carried her up.

Ji Yan sat on three chains that were as thick as her arms, hiding behind the demons she looked down curiously.

Two demons were fighting.

The demons surrounded them by several layers while roaring excitedly. One of the demons suddenly tore off the opponent’s arm and took a mouthful of bite. Blood splashed all over the ground, and the surrounding roar reached a new climax.

Ji Yan: “…” The picture is too ferocious, she shouldn’t have come up.

It was a bit like a ring, but these demons were really aiming to kill each other. The bloodthirsty demon became more aggressive after devouring the other demon, and another demon came forward to fight with him to see who would devour who.

…doesn’t this lead to a sharp drop in population?

Amazingly, the Demons didn’t die out because of infighting.

When Ji Yan was distracted, one demon had swallowed three demons one after another, but soon another strong demon rushed up, tearing the demon to pieces in an instant.

“Tsk, trash.” The cold, mocking voice of Yin Xuezhuo reached her ears, whom she forgot for a while.

Apparently, it felt like he died too soon.

Ji Yan: “…”

“Are you scared?” After cursing the waste, he came over to intimidate her: “The powerful demon generals in the demon realm all came out in this way.”

Ji Yan was curious: “If you keep killing, how many demons will die in one day? Aren’t you afraid there’s no one will be available one day?”

Yin Xuezhuo snorted, “Demon race is extremely slow in cultivation, and most of them choose to swallow the weak and grow their cultivation base. And for the weak even if they don’t die here, they will die in the hands of the human race. So it is better to become part of the great demon power. The demons don’t need a large number of clans, as long as each is elite.”

“Look.” He pointed to the long line behind that, countless demons lined up one by one, and their eyes were scarlet, stupidly wishing to rush to the ring immediately and fight to the death.

“I forbid them to devour each other. Only here, they can use their strength to increase their strength. You see, they… can’t wait to become stronger, become a powerful demon, or sacrifice their lives for the strong, in order to go to the mortal world and tear those people to pieces.”

Yin Xuezhuo’s tone was cheerful and seemed to say another very glorious thing. It was very pleasing to see his people doing this.

Ji Yin followed his thoughts and felt as if he had a good reason.

It was as if he was a wise ruler who loved his people like a son and ruled them well.

After spending some time here, Yin Xuezhuo took Ji Yan down again and let her continue to roam around.

The weak mortal Ji Yan with her short legs kept walking and walking and she encountered several demons along the way. Seeing the mortal, the other party wanted to devour her, but Yin Xuezhuo’s sudden appearance frightened them to their knees.

Ji Yan looked at them from the bluish green-fang face and instantly turned into a little pitiful kneeling on the ground trembling. There was an indescribable grievance in their weakness and helplessness. Some of them were frightened out of their original shape, and their furry ears kept fluttering, making them even more pitiful.

The gap between the front and the back was too big, Ji Yan couldn’t hold back, and laughed out loud.

Are all these demons so funny?

Yin Xuezhuo glanced at her thoughtfully, “I’ll put a sign on you later, writing ‘inedible’.”

In this way, she would not be coveted by the demons when she walked in the Demon Realm.

Yin Xuezhuo thought about it, and seemed to have mended the appearance of Ji Yan’s hanging sign, and found it more interesting.

He was so excited that he went straight ahead and took the material on the spot. Using the previous method of making the bed, he really made a wooden sign and eagerly wanted to hang Ji Yan.

Ji Yan: “?”

Isn’t she selling her body to bury her father, why did she put up a sign?!

“I don’t want it!” Ji Yan took a step back and looked at him vigilantly, thinking of something randomly, she replied: “I will be made into a human gu by you soon, so I don’t need a brand! Big brother! You let me go before I die!”

As soon as the word came out, Yin Xuezhuo’s movements paused, and his eyes narrowed immediately.

Ji Yan: “…” Oops, she seems to have said something not so good.

Big Brother Yin might have forgotten about making her a Human Gu and was now in a good mood to tease her. She reminded him of this now, wasn’t it just to urge him to kill herself quickly?

Ji Yan bit her lip and looked at him vigilantly, slowly leaning against the big locust tree behind her.

She was taut all over.

The word “death” seemed to be taboo, once it was mentioned, it would completely destroy the atmosphere.

Yin Xuezhuo looked down at her, his narrow eyelids drooping, his fierce aura was slightly restrained, and one couldn’t see any emotions.

He didn’t speak, and Ji Yan didn’t say a word for a while.

Just staring at each other.

He fixedly looked at Ji Yan for a long while, his finger pointed out a cluster of blue flame, burned the wooden plate into ashes, and said: “Then don’t wear it.”

After speaking, he turned and walked forward.

Ji Yan looked at his back and felt that he was a little unhappy as if he was sulking.

But obviously, she should be the one, who’s supposed to be sad? Ji Yan felt that her mentality was too good. How could a person who was about to be killed still make her killer angry?

“Yin Xuezhuo.” She shouted to his back: “You walk slowly, I can’t keep up. If you take ten steps, you will immediately return to the original place.”

Yin Xuezhuo: “…”

The author has something to say: Yin Xuezhuo: I’m not happy. Actually, I don’t want to kill her. It would be no fun to kill her, but if I don’t kill her, I have to think of other difficult ways. But it seems that I care about her too much. It’s very embarrassing.

Ji Yan: Demon Heart, Needle on the Seabed.
