Chapter 110: Unknowing Years (12)

  ps：

  Thank you for the reward from Huashan Dandao classmate! Jiuge is really excited to say it! Thank you for the extra update!

  The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, a gentle breeze stirred, casting dappled shadows among the trees. The air was filled with the faint scent of grass, and the occasional low calls of birds only served to underscore the stillness of the surroundings. It was a peaceful and serene night, but it was shattered by two agile figures darting back and forth.

  The figure flashed by, bringing a burst of wild wind that startled the birds singing in low, shallow tones to fly up into the sky with a "fluttering" sound. The shrubs and small animals hiding in them also became restless and scurried about, until they hastily hid in the secret thickets and tree holes, only daring to cautiously stick out their rolling eyes to anxiously scout out the surrounding movements.

  "Why are you always following me!" The evening air was thick with tension as she glared at him, her fiery figure standing out starkly against the dark night sky.

  "By order, to eliminate the suffering of humanity." The words were spoken in a tone as dull as the year itself, yet the fiery red color that accompanied them was in stark contrast, giving rise to an illusion that the speaker was merely borrowing someone else's skin to walk around.

  "Plagues, famines, wars - which one isn't a human calamity? What are you doing following me?" Xi Bu Yue retorted, secretly cursing under her breath. Are the gods just looking for trouble with full bellies? The humans have countless troubles, why come find their own problems?

  Still indifferent, he stared at Xi, unmoved. Seeing that Xi wasn't speaking, he walked straight up to him with an iron face, emotionless and impartial. Xi wouldn't just sit there waiting for death; he turned around, and his figure vanished into the vast night.

  "What's going on! How did you appear again!" Xiū had just managed to shake off Nián, and was relieved for no more than two days when he suddenly discovered Nián's figure appearing once more.

  The azure sea and blue sky, the endless expanse of the ocean's surface echoes with the thunderous sound of waves crashing against the shore, wave after wave overlapping as they charge towards the beach, even if it means being crushed to pieces, they still advance fearlessly.

  A figure in red appeared before him, riding the waves with an air of pride that made one think of a sea god, as if the sea god had descended upon the world.

  "Eliminate the suffering of humanity by imperial order." The answer has been the same for years. Let the thunder roar, this god standing in front of me must be a brainless puppet! Must be a puppet!

  "Everyone says don't bother me! Don't bother me!" Xi Chong suddenly went crazy, baring his teeth and brandishing his claws like a small cat that had been provoked.

  He stared blankly at the frantic Yu. He spoke in a low voice, "You're not wearing pants."

  ……

  Her face suddenly turned red with shame. She had originally come to the seaside to play in the water, but this bastard suddenly appeared, and she hastily wrapped her outer garment around her.

  Nian smiled and said with a raised corner of his mouth, "Are you going fishing?"

  Staring blankly at him for a moment, he suddenly exclaimed in shock, "This guy can actually smile!"

  Staring at Xi's bewildered and surprised expression. Glancing at Xi's lower body, he added, "Use insect lures to catch fish."

  The bewildered Xi lowered his head, suddenly realizing that the hem of his clothes was being blown up by the sea breeze from time to time. He suddenly understood the meaning of Nian's words. "Bastard! Beast! Despicable! Shameless!" Xi wailed and quickly disappeared into the distance on the beach.

  Staring at the direction of Yu's disappearance, the smile on his face grew thicker. This little guy always managed to surprise him, truly a treasure.

  The dim sun hangs in the dense and cloudy sky, without distinction between day and night. People coming and going are all wrapped in thick cloaks, covering their entire bodies tightly.

  "You!"

  "Shh!" He placed his index finger on his lips, signaling her to be quiet, and sat down beside her, whispering in her ear. "You're here too."

  He slightly shifted his position, vowing to keep a distance from Yan, "You are a god."

  "You're not from the Demon Clan either."

  "Anyway, with you around, I'm nothing." Yu Xiong said harshly. He couldn't believe that the smiling god in front of him was actually Yan, who used to be stern and serious all the time. No wonder he always wore red clothes, he should have guessed it earlier. He was actually a hypocrite, a scoundrel, and he had been deceived by Yan!

  "It's not like you'd run away with a red face, would you?" he said teasingly.

  "What's it to you!" Xi turned her head impatiently, must she admit that every time she saw red, she thought of the lingering ghost of years past? No way!

  "You have me in your heart, seeing things and thinking of people, seeing red is like seeing me, isn't it?" Nian was proudly showing off.

  Yu was shocked by Nian's words, and Nian didn't look like a god at all, but rather worse than a human! How did she end up with such an abnormal creature?! Yu steeled herself, thinking it would be better to be taken to the Upper Realm by Nian than to be constantly entangled. With determination, Yu said, "Take me to the Upper Realm!"

  "Why?" The year was stunned for a moment, he had never seen such an alien who actively asked to be caught!

  "Whatever... just catch it!" Xiaofei didn't want to regret it later and was too lazy to explain to him.

  "I was only ordered to eliminate the troubles of humanity. Since you no longer bring calamity to humanity, why should I capture you?" Yantan asked calmly.

  "Then follow me!" Yu Bei's words were not light.

  "I'll go wherever I want." The young rascal retorted.

  "You! I'm leaving!" Xiūn thought resentfully, can't even beat him and now he's running away with his tail between his legs? Since he can't hide in the mortal realm, he'll just have to hide in the demon tribe's territory instead! He still didn't believe that the gods would dare to be arrogant in the demon tribe's territory!

  "Ah yo!"

  "Who!" A pair of eyes gleaming with bloodthirsty red light appeared before Xi, and relying on his instincts, he involuntarily shrank back, his heart surging with fear. This was absolutely not an ordinary demon!

  Under the shroud of the black cloak, those bloodthirsty eyes stood out even more. He sized up Xi from head to toe and said in a deep voice, "You're a mountain spirit, your talent isn't bad. I'll take you as my master's magic slave, sparing you from offending me." As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of large hands rolling with dark energy reached for Xi's neck. Xi was suppressed by the dark energy and couldn't even move, only able to stare blankly at those massive hands covered in black air closing in on him, his heart filled with despair.

  "Wait!" The older man's hands moved even faster than before, pulling the evening star back into his own arms, laughing and saying, "He is my magic slave."

  "Your magic slave?" The scarlet eyes repeatedly sized him up, and by rights, a demon who could own a magic slave in the demon realm was no ordinary person. But why did he have no impression of the demon in front of him? This was the Demon Realm, if someone intentionally hid their identity, others should find it very hard to detect anything unusual.

  Within the boundary, it is impermissible to lightly provoke disputes. If they are easily allowed to leave, it would be unbearable. After careful consideration, the demon tribe spoke up, "He collided with me."

  "What do you want to do?" Nian asked with a hint of smile.

  ……

  A cunning opponent has thrown this question back at me, what to do? If I answer heavily, there's a suspicion of provoking controversy; if lightly, it won't have the effect of intimidation.

  "Grandfather, it's getting late." The demon beside him reminded softly.

  The demon clan looked up at the dull yellow glow in the sky and said reluctantly, "Spare you for now! Leave!"

  Everyone inside the boundary is a fleeting figure, and no one notices everything that happens here. The demon world is strict and severe, and those who lightly provoke disputes in the boundary will be killed without pardon. This rule hangs over every traveler's head like a sharp sword, forcing them to restrain themselves again and again.

  If he hadn't clearly known this rule, he wouldn't have been able to face the demon clan so calmly.
