Master's Chief Disciple

"It's almost dusk, why is there still no movement?" Nan Xi lay on the table in boredom.

"Wait a little longer, maybe it will be soon." Bai Yu said patiently.

"Look, they're coming out."

When Bai Yu heard the voice, he looked up and saw Wu Xiwen supporting Shangguan Mengrou.

Shangguan Mengrou handed her a bag and said, "There are some spiritual herbs in here. Thank you for saving me."

Originally, Wu Xiwen wanted to find a reason to follow, but Shangguan Mengrou didn't give her any chance at all, so she had to follow the original plan.

"It seems that Shangguan Mengrou is not easy to deal with." Nan Xi sighed when she saw Shangguan Mengrou leaving quickly.

Wu Xiwen shook her head and said, "Continue to follow her."

Behind the scenes of Huxiang Pavilion in Qingmeng County, a figure was moving. Yuan in the secret room seemed to sense a familiar breath. He opened his eyes and happened to see Xiao.

Seeing him reduced to this state, Xiao couldn't help but feel distressed, but he still asked coldly: "Yuan, why don't you turn back?"

The chains made a noise, Yuan took a deep breath and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Xiao snorted coldly and then sneered. It turned out that Yuan had no intention of turning back. "There is a difference between immortals and mortals, and between humans and monsters. There is no way back from the road ahead, so why bother to stick to it."

Yuan's head was buzzing, and he realized something was wrong. He shouted, "Don't touch her! Come to me if you have any problem!"

"She did it voluntarily. I didn't force her."

He continued to struggle against the chains and snapped, "What do you mean? What did you tell her?"

Seeing Yuan like this, she was really poisoned. Finally, she couldn't stand him anymore. She stepped forward, lifted his chin, and roared, "What on earth are you thinking about? There is no way there will be any result between you two! Wake up! Be the Yuan you used to be!"

"I'm really disgusted by the way you are now!" She said and pushed him away.

Yuan was silent for a long time, and Xiao recalled their past in his mind. Yuan really did not like killing and was a very gentle monster.

Yuan murmured, "Help me, I don't want her to die."

Xiao said: "It's too late, she has already reached Qingxi Youlin."

"You actually asked her to go to the high priest. That's like hitting a rock with an egg!"

"As long as she dies, you can naturally regain the demon pill and return to your tribe." Xiao tried his best to make him forget her. Qingxi Youlin was just a trap he set up, and the high priest was not in the sea of ​​flowers.

Yuan wanted to tear off the chains on his body, but at this moment he was like a weak fox and could not shake the hundred-pound chains at all.

He was in extreme pain and could only shout helplessly. Suddenly, he felt something rushing up his throat. Blood from the corners of his mouth dripped onto his red robe. A few tears fell from the corners of his eyes mixed with blood. "Please save her. I will go back to the tribe with you."

Hearing this, Xiao was very happy. This was what he had been waiting for. So he untied the chains and formation on him and took him back to the tribe to heal his wounds.

Nan Xi and others followed Shangguan Mengrou all the way to a sea of ​​flowers.

In a loft in the fox demon territory, Xiao informed the high priest of Yuan's return. He thought the high priest would return the demon pill to Yuan as promised, but the high priest only left this sentence, "I will make my own decision on Yuan's matter."

Xiao clenched his fists, his body trembling, and after a while he knelt down with a plop. "Since Yuan has admitted his fault, Xiao dares to ask the high priest to show some mercy."

Suddenly, a powerful pressure came over him, making it hard for him to breathe. "What? Do you want your demon core to be taken away from you too?"

He felt a chill when he heard this. The high priest had no intention of returning the demon pill to Yuan and had regarded him as a useless chess piece.

Xiao lowered his head with his eyes wide open, "Xiao dare not, everything is arranged by the high priest."

After leaving the attic, he punched the wall angrily, "This cunning old fox!"

"Oh no, the sea of ​​flowers!"

Shangguan Mengrou looked at the sea of ​​flowers full of memories, and her heart was already prepared to die. However, she didn't know that her Pei Lang might never be saved.

"What is she doing here? Why don't we just go up and take her back?" Nan Xi was puzzled.

Wu Xiwen thought for a while and realized that there was nothing wrong with it, but Master had said that it was not that simple. "Master said that it might not be that simple. Let's observe it for a while."

After sighing softly, Nan Xi simply sat under a tree and picked the flowers on the ground.

Xiao didn't know how to tell Yuan about this. He stood outside the door for a long time, sighed deeply, and pushed the door open.

"How is she?" Yuan asked.

"Don't worry, she is safe." Xiao replied.

Xiao was about to leave but was shocked by what Yuan said next, "Once the demon pill is taken away by the high priest, it will never be returned."

Xiao stood there for a long time, feeling a little guilty, but he could sense from Yuan's tone that Yuan seemed to have known something for a long time.

"You don't have to blame yourself. I know you have been helping me secretly."

"If it weren't for you, she and I would have..." Before he could finish his words, he started coughing uncontrollably.

Xiao stepped forward to heal his wounds, "Yuan, I will ask the high priest for help again."

Just as he was about to leave, Yuan stopped him, "It's useless. Don't lose your life for nothing."

"How do you know if you don't try!" Xiao broke free from him.

Yuan wanted to stand up but fell to the ground instead. He shouted hoarsely, "Once the demon pill is taken away, it will be offered to that lord. There is no need to risk it for me. I am already at the end of my strength."

"Xiao, I just want to ask you one more thing, take me to see her."

At this point, Xiao didn't want to ask him whether it was worth it or not, but his brother's life was in danger, and he was powerless to do anything. His eyes couldn't help but become wet, "Okay!"

After a long time, Xiao brought Yuan to the flower sea of ​​Qingxi Youlin. Yuan saw the familiar figure, staggered to her, and called softly, "Mengrou."

Hearing this, Shangguan Mengrou turned around slowly. He was smiling brightly at this moment. She smiled and threw herself into his arms. The two of them hugged each other in the sea of ​​flowers for a long time, as if the world belonged to only the two of them at this moment.

Wu Xiwen looked at this warm scene and perhaps understood their love to some extent. She looked up at the sky and smiled.

Nan Xi sighed and shook her head, "That demon is about to die, she won't commit suicide for love, right?"

Bai Yu pointed at a demon dressed in purple and white sitting on a hill in the distance, "There's a fourteenth-level fox demon!"

Suddenly, Nan Xi felt an itch on her waist. She glanced at Bai Yu beside her and said with a slightly red face, "Hey, Bai Yu, what are you doing?"

"Are you okay?" Bai Yu reached out and touched her forehead.

Then he looked at Wu Xiwen again. Who touched her waist just now? He couldn't help but think to himself, "Is there a ghost?"

He instantly thought of his previous experience and the message from their senior sister. If they really showed up, it would be even worse. Shangguan Mengrou alone was already troublesome enough.

"Pei Lang, your demon pill, and why are you here?" Shangguan Mengrou realized something and let go of him, asking with concern.

"Meng Rou, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't stay with you forever in this life." Yuan stroked her cheek softly.

Shangguan Mengrou's tears fell like bean-sized pearls, her lips trembled, and her throat seemed to be blocked by something and she could not make any sound.

"I went to find him, and Xiao told me to exchange my life for the pill." He choked.

He pulled her back into his arms and said, "I can't get my demon pill back!"

She slapped his back repeatedly, trying to break free from his embrace. She didn't believe it and was unwilling to accept this fact. She cried out at the top of her lungs, "I'm going to go find him and get the demon pill back. Xiao, come out. I'll give you my life. Please give the demon pill back to him."

Xiao, who was far away, heard this, turned around, a tear rolled down from the corner of his eye, and he could do nothing.

"Mengro, being in love with you in this life is enough!" He hugged her tightly and kissed her neck gently.

"Wait for me, I'll go find your high priest." After saying that, he cast a spell to tie him up.

She was determined to fight to the death, but a cultivator at the second level of the Golden Shadow Realm could not withstand a single attack from a fifteenth-level demon.

Yuan knew that she wanted to die, and shouted, "Shangguan Mengrou, don't do stupid things, it's not worth it for me!"

Shangguan Mengrou paused when she heard that, turned around and replied with a smile, "It's worth it! Because I love you!"

Xiao rushed over to stop her, "You can't even handle a single move from the high priest. You might as well spend the rest of your time with Yuan."

"Get out of the way!" Shangguan Mengrou put the sword against his neck.

Xiao took the opportunity to remove the spell from Yuan's body and left the spot in a flash.

Yuan held her in his arms, bent down and kissed her soft lips. She dropped the sword in her hand, wrapped her arms around his waist, and indulged in this moment.

Fireflies fly around at night, lighting up the surroundings.

"Are we here to watch a show or to save people?" Nan Xi turned her back and complained, but a ripple appeared in her heart.

A voice sounded in my mind, "Nanxi, something is wrong with you."

I thought to myself, "Who?"

Mu Huayan walked around behind her and covered her mouth with her hand, "Shh, it's me."

Wu Xiwen and Bai Yu were sleeping soundly on the side, only Nan Xi was full of energy.

"Senior Sister? Why are you here?" he asked her in a low voice.

She just smiled and said nothing.
