Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"Together, we can definitely wipe out the demon race." Seeing Huo Ning say this, all the disciples of the immortal sect echoed in unison.

Yu Xiaobai looked at them coldly, feeling more and more annoyed.

"Xiao Yu, are you here?" A familiar voice sounded from outside.

Everyone looked out and saw a young man with a slender figure, beautiful appearance, a hint of enchantment, a hint of charm and a very majestic appearance standing at the gate of the City Defense Department.

His expression was somewhat cold, and his eyes blatantly looked everywhere the City Defense Officer was looking at, but he seemed to have completely ignored everyone's gazes on him.

Helan Ruofeng looked at the newcomer, feeling somewhat surprised, but also a little panicked. Since he had come to Hanyu City, did that mean Xiaoyu was about to leave?

Except for the disciples from Yunji Villa, everyone was attracted by the appearance and figure of the visitor.

They speculated, who was this person? What was he doing here? Why did he look so charming, yet people dared not offend him at all?

"Your Excellency the Priest..." Zhou Ze took the lead and respectfully saluted Lan Moqiu.

"Where is Xiaoyu?" Lan Moqiu nodded slightly towards Zhou Ze and asked again.

"The City Defense Department was attacked by monsters yesterday. We all went out to chase the fleeing monsters and have just returned. Junior Sister Xiaoyu is here. Let's go in and call her first." Zhou Ze replied respectfully.

Lan Moqiu nodded slightly and followed Zhou Ze into the City Defense Department. When he passed by Helan Ruofeng, he smiled at him.

Helan Ruofeng was already flustered. For some reason, he actually felt a little ashamed.

It was obvious that he liked Xiaoyu first, and it was obvious that he and Xiaoyu were in love with each other, and Lan Moqiu was the third party, so why did he feel that his actions were not upright?

Lan Moqiu, accompanied by Zhou Ze, went from room to room looking for Yu Xiaobai. With every step, Lan Moqiu wondered where she had gone, but Helan Ruofeng's heart seemed to be hit by something heavy.

Some people began to look at him as if he were a clown, and some began to whisper about him, saying that he was interfering with other people and making some unpleasant condemning remarks.

Helan Ruofeng suppressed the pressure in his heart and stood quietly watching what might happen next.

Yu Xiaobai was taking a nap when she heard footsteps approaching. She opened her eyes suddenly and saw the other person pushing the door open.

"You are here?" Lan Moqiu looked at her in a daze and asked.

"Master, why are you here?" When Yu Xiaobai saw Lan Moqiu, he stood up excitedly, walked up to him, pulled his sleeve and asked.

"If I didn't come, would you plan to settle down here?" Lan Moqiu looked normal, but there was a hint of anger in his tone.

"It's because the demons are rampant. I want to contribute together with Senior Brother Zhou Ze and the others!" Yu Xiaobai said without blushing or feeling any pain.

"You are not needed here anymore, come back with me!" After saying this, Lan Moqiu took Yu Xiaobai's hand and strode out of the house.

Seeing this, Hei Duo hurriedly followed.

Along the way, everyone opened their eyes to see Lan Moqiu holding Yu Xiaobai's hand, and some people began to believe Yu Xiaobai's words. Perhaps, the marriage between the two was not a rumor, nor was it Yu Xiaobai's wishful thinking.

They held hands and walked down the second floor step by step, through the corridor, passed the hall, and walked step by step to the gate of the City Defense Bureau.

At the last moment, Yu Xiaobai suddenly stopped and turned around to look for Helan Ruofeng in the crowd.

Helan Ruofeng just stared at her straight, and when their eyes met, he saw reluctance and determination in Yu Xiaobai's eyes.

Helan Ruofeng didn't understand. She obviously liked him and didn't want to leave him. Why did she look at him with such a resolute look? She didn't explain, and didn't even say goodbye, as if nothing had happened between them.

For the first time, Helan Ruofeng began to wonder whether his enthusiasm and sincerity, his pursuit of her across mountains and rivers, was worth it in the end.

He was actually a little annoyed with her. Why did she treat him like this? Did she think that he, Helan Ruofeng, couldn't live without her, Yu Xiaobai?

But she won, and won beautifully. From the first time she left, he knew that he could not live without her.

However, he watched her and Lan Moqiu leave until they reached the gate of the City Defense Bureau compound and until she turned around to look at him, he didn't dare to say another word to her.

What was the reason that made him not even have the courage to say another word to her? He was afraid of losing, he was afraid that she would reject him, he was afraid of the mocking eyes of everyone around him, so he just looked at her and resolutely refused to speak again.

Yu Xiaobai looked at Helan Ruofeng. She knew that once she left, the relationship between her and him would end.

He would no longer hold her hand at any time, would no longer stand in front of her when someone bullied her, would no longer call her Xiaoyu in a doting and gentle voice, would no longer allow her to bully and tease him, everything would be gone.

However, Yu Xiaobai had no choice. Because she knew how much she liked and cared about him, she was even more afraid to see how he would behave after he knew her true identity.

She didn't dare to imagine it, because as soon as she thought about it, she was afraid. She was afraid that she would stand on the opposite side of the person she loved most, and she was afraid that the sword in the hand of her favorite person would stab her heart.

"Let's go!" Lan Moqiu didn't give her time to think, and pulled her decisively out of the City Defense Department.

Along the way, Yu Xiaobai was surprisingly calm.

She kept convincing herself that it was just a man and no big deal.

Lan Moqiu is also very good, and he is not just ordinary good. He is the high priest of Xinyue, he looks impeccable, his cultivation is unfathomable, and he can better protect his identity from being exposed.

But Yu Xiaobai still felt a little uncomfortable, so she continued to convince herself how bad Helan Ruofeng was.

Helan Ruofeng is a disciple of the immortal sect, a disciple of the immortal sect who specializes in targeting the demon race? His main purpose of cultivating immortals is not to become an immortal or a god, but to stay in the human world to eliminate demons and defend the way.

Eliminate demons and defend the way? Since ancient times, demons have been regarded as the evil side, so she is among those he wants to eliminate.

Therefore, Helan Ruofeng is not the best choice. These original advantages have become disadvantages due to her status. Only a fool would choose him.

After returning to the inn to pack up, Lan Moqiu sat quietly by the side watching Yu Xiaobai pack up.

Yu Xiaobai was normal at first, but as he was collecting the things, he started to become dazed, his head went blank and he didn't know what to do.

"Don't you want to leave?" Lan Moqiu looked at her and asked.

He knew she didn't want to leave. The way she looked at Helan Ruofeng seemed familiar to him. Once upon a time, he had also looked at another person with that look. However, the current situation and their identities meant that they were destined not to be together.

So he would take her away and make the decision for her.

Yu Xiaobai looked up at Lan Moqiu with a blank expression, grinned mechanically, then lowered his head and continued to pack.

This time she didn't need to be urged and finished cleaning up quickly.

"Let's go! Remember Heiduo is here." She walked forward and took his hand, smiling naturally and gently.

Lan Moqiu didn't say anything, and teleported her back to the priest's house.

"Where's Heiduo?" Xiaobai the fish called out nervously as soon as he landed.

"He has a master-servant contract with you. As long as you summon him, he will come out." Lan Moqiu looked at Yu Xiaobai with an idiot look in his eyes and said.

"Is it so magical?" Before Yu Xiaobai could call out, Hei Duo had already arrived.

"Master." Hei Duo came to her respectfully.

"You can go out and play, but you can't be too big to scare people, and you can't set fires everywhere. As for the rest, you can take care of it yourself." Yu Xiaobai looked at Hei Duo and warned.

"Yes, master." Heiduo said, and ran away happily.

She had been away for more than three months this time, and when she came back, it was already summer. Compared to the frozen Hanyu City, the new moon at this time was already full of green and a magnificent scene of blooming flowers.

Lan Moqiu brought Yu Xiaobai back and walked out of her yard without saying a word.

"Will we really get married?" Yu Xiaobai asked hurriedly when he saw him leaving.

Lan Moqiu paused and looked back at her: "Do you want to or not?"

"I..." Yu Xiaobai was speechless for a moment. Does it matter to him whether she wants to or not? If she doesn't want to, will he force her? Will he stop taking her in from now on?

"You rest first, I'll let you know when you're ready." Lan Moqiu said as he walked out of the yard.

Yu Xiaobai collapsed weakly on the bed, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes.

She had already made her choice, could she regret it? The answer was definitely yes. However, she didn't want to be someone who didn't keep her word, and if the person she hurt was Lan Moqiu, she couldn't do it.

When she was Xue'er, he treated her so well, like a father treating his child, like a friend treating another friend, and she felt that he was completely equal to her, which made her feel that she was not a dog, but a person like him.

She liked to stay by his side, he read books, she looked at him. He would allow her to eat the same food and snacks as him and treat her as a friend.

Later, she became the current Yu Xiaobai, and he told her to call him Master. He didn't teach her anything, but he would let Long Xiao supervise and give her some advice. Everything he did had already exceeded what a master could do to a pet.

Maybe at the beginning, he really treated her as his daughter. However, when Yu Xiaobai said she wanted to marry him when she grew up, although he refused at that time, he still thought about her words seriously.

"Don't think about anything, just marry him. You are afraid of death anyway." Yu Xiaobai said self-deprecatingly and fell asleep in a daze.

When she woke up again, it was already dark. Aji knocked on the door and asked her to get up for dinner. His eyes were full of resentment.

Yu Xiaobai didn't know how she had offended this guy again. She was feeling a little depressed and ignored him.

"Hmph!" Seeing that she didn't say anything, Aji started to hum from time to time.

Yu Xiaobai never responded. She was in no mood to pay attention to him.

"Hmph...why are you ignoring me?" Aji turned around and looked at Yu Xiaobai and asked.

"You keep humming. What do you want me to say?" Yu Xiaobai didn't understand what he wanted to do.

"Do you have to marry me? Are you so unwilling to be my junior sister?" Aji asked aggrievedly when he saw her paying attention to him.

"Hmm..." Yu Xiaobai was even more confused. After all the fuss, he was actually angry about this.

"What? You are my only junior sister, and you actually want to marry an adult. What should I call you in the future?" Aji became even angrier when he saw her expression.

"You can call me whatever you want. It's up to you." Yu Xiaobai didn't want to argue with him. He was just a kid of eleven or twelve years old.

"Even if you still want me to call you whatever I want, the adults will definitely not agree." Aji suddenly said sadly.

"Do you just want a little junior sister?" Yu Xiaobai asked softly when he saw him like this.

"I really want a little junior sister, or a little junior brother is fine. Although you go out often, I think it's good to have a little junior sister." Aji muttered in a low voice.

"Aji, in my heart, you are not my junior brother, nor my junior brother, but you are like a younger brother." Yu Xiaobai looked at Aji and said seriously.

"Brother? I'm the one taking care of you, okay?" Aji said unwillingly.

"A younger brother is a man, and it's his duty to take care of his sister. So, what I want to tell you is that no matter whether the high priest and I are married or not, I will always treat you as my younger brother, and our relationship will not change. It doesn't really matter what you call me." Yu Xiaobai said, patting Aji gently.

"Really?" Aji didn't quite believe what Yu Xiaobai said.

"Really." Yu Xiaobai nodded heavily.

I’m afraid that one day you will be scared by me after you know my identity. I hope that day will never come.

When they arrived at the dining room, Lan Moqiu had already quietly sat at the dining table. There were three sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table. Yu Xiaobai took the initiative to help Lan Moqiu serve the rice and dishes.

"Eat quickly, or it will get cold." Lan Moqiu said and picked up the chopsticks first.

Aji obediently served the rice, sat aside and started eating.

Yu Xiaobai also sat next to Lan Moqiu.

As soon as she picked up the bowl, Lan Moqiu put some food into her bowl.

"These are your favorite dishes, eat more." Lan Moqiu said gently.

"Sir..." Aji looked at Lan Moqiu in confusion.

Lan Moqiu thought he was jealous and put some food into his bowl.

"Sir, why does Xiaoyu taste so similar to Xueer?" Aji asked puzzledly.

"Cough cough cough..." Yu Xiaobai almost choked to death. Lan Moqiu quickly put down her chopsticks and patted her on the back.

"Oh, junior sister, you really are..." Aji shook his head with a look of disappointment.

Yu Xiaobai and Lan Moqiu looked at each other and then chuckled.

"Are you finally willing to smile?" Lan Moqiu reached out to stroke Yu Xiaobai's hair.

Yu Xiaobai seemed a little embarrassed. They used to get along very naturally. After all, they had lived together for three or four years and were like family.

However, ever since she got together with Helan Ruofeng, she began to resist his touch.

Yu Xiaobai is good at acting. During the meal, the three of them were talking and laughing all the time, and there was no dull moment.

That night, under the powerful self-hypnosis, Yu Xiaobai fell into a sweet dream and had no dreams all night.

On the second day, Zi Yan and Jin Xuan, who had not been seen for a long time, went out incognito together.

This was the second time that Yu Xiaobai had seen Jin Xuan after he had recovered his original appearance. Compared to what he had seen three years ago, Jin Xuan had completely changed. He had transformed from a weak and stubborn boy three years ago into a young emperor with a firm gaze and a strong body.

Zi Yan was dressed as a guard, looking heroic, and standing next to Jin Xuan, they were strangely a good match.

"Zi Yan, Jin...Your Majesty." Yu Xiaobai called Zi Yan affectionately. The word "Jin" almost came out of her mouth, but she immediately took it back.

Jin Xuan only knew Miss Zi Yan, who had shared hardships with him, and not Yu Xiaobai, whom he had only met once.

"Zi Yan and His Majesty are really a good match." Looking at the two of them, Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but praise them sincerely.

"Oh? Really?" Jin Xuan heard Yu Xiaobai say this and happily went to hold Zi Yan's hand.

"Your Majesty, Xiaoyu..." Two red clouds appeared on Zi Yan's usually cold face.

"Zi Yan is actually shy." Yu Xiaobai looked at Zi Yan and teased her.
