Chapter 79: A Battle of Wits and Courage

  A sharp pain came, Qing Kuang clenched her teeth and forcibly swallowed the cry of pain that was about to escape. She didn't want to compromise again, absolutely not! Her shoulders hurt so much that it seemed like even her bones were aching.

  The already injured collarbone was stained with fresh blood, and the white skin was dyed red. Even the clothes were stained with blood, showing that the man had been ruthless. Later, the black flame forcibly stopped the bleeding, revealing a pattern of tooth marks in the center, like a burning flame that would never be extinguished!

  Until the print was pressed with her own mark, Mo Jiu You was satisfied, and she licked the bloodstains clean with a thumb up and down, before carrying the person horizontally in her arms.

  "When will you let me go." His whole body was immobilized, and he could only be held in his arms.

  "Not letting go!" No matter what, he wouldn't let go now that the person was in his arms. His long-held wish had finally come true, and thinking about it made him grip even tighter.

  "But you can't keep me trapped like this for the rest of my life." If that's really the case, then she'd be better off dead.

  "Silly girl, your whole life is mine, no, for all eternity you are mine. Even if you die, I will find your soul and lock it by my side." For the master of the demon realm, imprisoning a human's soul was a trivial matter. As he said this, another deep kiss followed, with Qing being forced to tilt her head back, letting him do as he pleased.

  I'd love to devour her whole, Mo Jiu felt like he was going crazy, licking those pearly whites, occasionally teasing with his tongue, and finally gently biting on her lip, soft and full of his breath, my girl!

  She closed her eyes, feeling that since she couldn't resist him, she would ignore him to the greatest extent possible. However, his overbearing aura was always shrouding her, making it impossible for her to ignore him even if she wanted to.

  Looking at that small face which had turned bright red from being choked, Mo Jiu left a resounding kiss on her forehead and gazed into her eyes, "Little girl, come back to the Demon Realm with me!"

  "I said I won't go with you."

  "You know, it's easy for me to take a human away, but I don't want to force you. What I want is for you to come with me willingly."

  "Huh, you clearly know this is impossible, are you deceiving yourself now?" She glared at him provocatively, refusing to back down.

  "He..." The man suddenly choked up, his heart clear of course, but he just wanted to confirm something again and again. However, upon hearing her words, he was greatly disappointed, feeling stifled in his heart.

  "If you don't agree, I won't let you go." Mo Jiu's words were so childish that Yu Hua was stunned as soon as they left his mouth.

  "This man is sick! Alright, let's see who can outlast whom!"

  Two people stared at each other with wide eyes, waiting to see who would be the first to back down.

  However, the two of them were more enduring than each other, but they didn't know that someone had been searching for her frantically. Long before Ximen Qingxue and others confirmed it, Shen Jun had sent people to look for Qian Kuang, but so many people had turned the entire courtyard upside down without finding him.

  "Director, not found."

  "Director, we don't have it either."

  "Dean, Dean, I've looked everywhere, but I just can't find her. You must have scared her away..." Ximen Rongxue said with a hint of blame, then sulkily hid in the corner.

  "Could it be that you're taking the kids out for a stroll? After all, little ones find everything novel...". Seeing the awkward expressions of the department heads and advisors, Beidong Qimeng quickly intervened.

  "Then we'll just sit here and wait, she'll come back when it gets dark!" Shen Jun said this with a lot of helplessness. Although he said that this girl was his school's student, but from another perspective, if what she said was true, then this fourteen-year-old girl named Qingkuang was indeed a master of medicine or even a saint of medicine. In that case, it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to wait. After all, alchemists were highly respected on this continent and naturally could look down on others. Moreover, previously they had been the ones who didn't believe her, questioned her, ridiculed her, and finally drove her away. Now they could only wait quietly.

  The whole family did nothing all day, and important things were all pushed to others. Even meals were delivered by someone, while waiting for the lanterns to be lit, even the city woke up, but no one came back.

  "Hmm..." Lian Cheng felt that his mind was a mess right now, he shook his head hard, but it was still blurry.

  "Lian Cheng mentor, are you awake?" Jing Wu hurriedly poured a cup of water and fed it to him, carefully watching him.

  "Thank you......" Indeed, after drinking water, his vision gradually cleared up.

  "Lian Cheng, how are you feeling now?" As Shen Jun asked, everyone else also turned their attention to him. If he could really be cured, it would be a huge stroke of luck!

  Lian Cheng slowly raised his hands, and he could still feel a faint pain, but there was no longer that feeling of helplessness and nerve-wracking pain. "It's okay, I guess the bones have healed, and I can use force now." Looking at those hands, Lian Cheng felt it was unbelievable - would his hands really be fine?

  "Really? That's great!" Lian Cheng himself was a pharmacist, so everyone still believed what he said.

  He withdrew his gaze from his hands and looked around the room, but he didn't see the person he most wanted to see and thank now, and couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Why can't I see Qingkuang?"

  The tutors of the college suddenly felt embarrassed, could it be that they were old and still drove a little girl away? They couldn't say anything, so they all lowered their heads in unison, those who drank tea continued to drink tea, those who admired the scenery continued to admire the scenery, oh, clothes got dirty, hurry up and wipe them clean.

  "Ximen, you say!"

  "Huh? Why me?" Ximen Qingyang looked at Lian Cheng with a bitter face. "Alright, alright, I said it's fine, don't look at me like that, you're making me lose my temper..." After saying that, he glanced at the several instructors who were lowering their heads in guilt and took the opportunity to glare at them fiercely.

  "Why was I driven away?" Having learned that his hands could heal, and feeling quite recovered himself, Lian Cheng regained his usual calmness and asked about the reason for things.

  "It's not just because of the Alchemist competition, Qīng Kuáng said he wants to substitute for you, but they don't agree."

  "Dean, I agree to let her replace me, otherwise the quota will be wasted."

  "The mentors said that Qing Kuang was not qualified, and Qing Kuang said she was even more fierce than you... Cough, I mean, I didn't mean it that way, of course, Mentor Lian Cheng, you are also very fierce! Really!" Ximen Rongxue knew she had misspoken and quickly corrected herself.

  "What's next?"

  "Then she said that in terms of Alchemist rank, she is only higher than you, not lower. These are her original words, don't represent my personal opinion." After emphasizing this several times, Ximen Lingfeng continued to say, "No one believed her, so Qingkuang was angered and left."

  "She's not one to exaggerate, I believe her!" Lian Cheng said with conviction, his eyes fixed on Dean Shen Jun. Although he had heard it before and felt a slight movement in his heart, he still believed.

  "Lian Cheng, take a look at these elixirs." Shen Jun brought the elixirs in front of him, after all they were still outsiders.

  Looking at the shape and color of these elixirs, he carefully smelled their fragrance, his expression stunned, and gave the most sincere evaluation, "Very good, from any aspect, they are high-quality elixirs. Are they refined by Light Crazy?"

  "It's a lot given by Light Chivalrous, a lot! A lot!" Ximen Yunshuang made a circular gesture with both hands to indicate that it was really a lot.

  "So we're waiting for her to come back now." With Lian Cheng's identification, Shen Jun had a bottom line in his heart.

  "It's so late, isn't he back yet?" Looking at the sky outside, it's almost bedtime.

  "Maybe something delayed them, or maybe they saw something interesting and lingered a bit."

  "No way, it's obvious, she dotes on her son so much. At this hour, kids should be asleep."

  Upon hearing Lian Cheng's words, Xi Men Lin Xue and the others exchanged a glance, then turned to Shen Jun together, "Director, let's go take another look at her courtyard."

  Shen Jun nodded, that little guy wouldn't have such a big temper, would he? Really not planning on coming back?

  So they could only continue waiting, but when several people came back panting, the answer still hadn't come.

  "There isn't a glimmer of light in the house, it seems like they haven't returned yet."

  "Alas, where has this frivolous person gone? It's really driving me to death!" Ximen Linfeng hurriedly circled around the table in the middle.

  "Could it be that he's still holding a grudge against us and is being temperamental?" a mentor tentatively said.

  "How could I?! Ximen Dajie is not a petty-minded person!" With that, the young master of the Ximen family finally lost his temper after holding it in for a whole day.

  "If what she said is true, we will apologize to her when she comes back."

  "How come you're not back yet, it's so late, I hope nothing has happened! Ah, tut, tut, tut, what am I thinking?!" Ximen Yunshuang nervously walked to the door, muttering to herself.

  As the saying goes, "the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional." Beitang Qimeng thought about Ximen Rong's words and looked at the crowd waiting in the house, hesitantly speaking out, "Could it be that today's news has leaked?"

  "What do you mean, Beidong?"

  "I'm saying that with so many people around today, won't someone find out about Leng Qiang's identity as an alchemist?" He glanced at Lian Cheng as he spoke.

  At that moment, everyone's heart was a "突突" (a sudden thud), no, it can't be! Don't let it be what they think!

  "Your meaning is that someone heard our conversation and spread it out?" Ximen Rui looked at Lian Cheng's hand unnaturally, and exclaimed, "Could it be that someone has caught Qingfeng? Will she be disadvantaged? Will she be harmed?" The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, his voice no longer under control.

  Upon hearing this speculation, Lian Cheng's heart also skipped a beat. Could such a tragic event really happen again?

  This is their newly excavated genius! Don't let anything really happen! Sometimes the more ominous the signs, the more people's panic in their hearts will be magnified countless times. Commonly known as: scaring oneself!

  "Ah ah ah, no way, I have to go out and take a look, can't let anything happen to her! Oh right, she's got the kid with her too, I'll go now!" After saying that, he hastily rushed outside.

  "Ximen, don't panic first, let's not think of the worst, we're also worried, and we'll go with you in a while. Yuanzhang, take a look and see if it's possible to send out some more people?" Huangfu Mingbo pulled him back, seeking Shen Jun's opinion.

  "Alright, let's say we also have a responsibility for today's matter. Several instructors will bring people to search together. The girl can wait here, regardless of whether she is found or not, and meet at the Liancheng in two hours." As soon as the words were spoken, other instructors nodded in agreement, hoping that they could find her; otherwise, they would feel guilty.

  "Hurry up, hurry up! Now that I think about it, my heart is growing grass!" Would someone rob her of her wealth and beauty? Would she be caught and beaten to a pulp? Was someone jealous, using sinister plots to harm her? Or did some powerful force discover her talent and cripple her hands? No! Seeing Cheng's painful expression, Ximen Linshuang gulped down saliva, and her feet stumbled, almost causing her to tumble to the ground.

  "Ximen, don't be impulsive, I know you're anxious, but we also need to discuss how to find her!" Beitang Qimeng pressed down on his shoulder, forcibly pulling his soul back.

  "Oh, let's discuss it..."

  "Firstly, we'll split up in four directions to search. Also, absolutely do not reveal our true identities as detectives, after all, everything is just our speculation, and we don't want our actions to really put her in danger."

  "Alright, I understand!"

  Thus, in this southern capital with its myriad lights, several groups of people emerged, infiltrating various forces and searching for the same person in different directions.

  The war lightly crazy who was being anxiously searched for by everyone was now helplessly staying in Mo Jiu You's arms, and had even maintained the same posture for an entire afternoon.

  A "gulugulu" sound came, finally breaking the silence between the two.

  "Hehe, is my little servant hungry?" Looking at her face which had turned red with embarrassment for a moment, Mo Jiu's mood was great, and he couldn't help but chuckle. His big hand also rubbed her soft and fluffy little belly. Eh, he was so focused on being stubborn that he forgot his servant was human. He not eating or drinking wasn't a problem, but he couldn't let his servant starve to death.

  "Nonsense! Starve you for half a day, see if your stomach will protest!" She retorted with a hint of annoyance and disdain, her whole body now sore and aching, and she was also worried about Yu'er, whenever she met this man, nothing good would come out of it!

  "You just nod and agree to go back to the Demon Realm with me, and I'll feed you till you're full!" Mo Jiu Yu pondered, why did this sound so obscene? However, her hands didn't stop moving, after all, a fool wouldn't pass up a good deal! So she continued to draw circles on her belly.

  "I'd rather starve to death than go!" Skipping one meal won't kill her, trying to force her to back down, not even a door.

  The movement in his hand paused, looking at that angry brow and eyes, Mo Jiu's anger in his heart was suddenly extinguished. Hmm, not bad, indeed the little girl he had taken a liking to, even her angry expression looked so good. However, being disobedient now didn't mean he couldn't handle her. For now, let's just find something for her to eat first!

  He picked up Qing Kuang and Mo Jiu suddenly disappeared in this broken temple.

  "Ah, sir, please come in, please come in." The shopkeeper only saw a dignified man holding a young girl in his arms, and just as he was about to take another look, he was glared back, so how dare he be slow?

  "One room upstairs, one table of wine and dishes, no disturbance allowed!"

  "Ah? Oh, I see. Please, after you." The man's imposing aura made him not dare to lift his head! He thought to himself that he should hurry and send the man upstairs, so he could also catch his breath.

  For this little girl, he spoke with a humble human for the second time since meeting her, and had already broken too many examples.

  The speed of the inn was not bad, and Xiao Er quickly prepared wine and dishes. He also kindly filled the bathtub with water, sprinkled flower petals on it, making it convenient for guests to wash up. Seeing the bathtub, Mo Jue raised an eyebrow with a hint of playful curiosity.

  She tightly pursed her lips, refusing to open her mouth no matter what.

  "What's going on now?"

  "My son wants to eat too!" That lunch was gone, when had she ever been hungry for her son?

  It's that little thing again! It's him! Is this little thing really that important? Thinking back to when I met her, this little girl has always considered his kind more important than anything else. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck me, and Mo Jiu rubbed his chin thoughtfully, perhaps he had found a way!

  "Just half a minute, don't obstruct my view." This was his bottom line.

  "Eating too quickly is not good for digestion."

  "Don't eat it then!"

  Glaring at him fiercely, gritting her teeth and spitting out a sentence: "Then...half...a moment!"

  The little one had just come out and was worriedly looking at her, not forgetting to shoot a cold glance at Mo Jiu. "Mother..."

  "Hurry up and eat, dear!" Time was too short, she worried that her baby son might not be full.

  "Mommy hold me ~ hold me ~" As he said, the little man stretched out his hand to her. Don't think he didn't know that Mommy couldn't move now, he wanted to rescue Mommy.

  She had a bitter smile in her heart, she also wanted to hold her son in her arms and give him a good kiss, but with this man around, it was simply not allowed!

  "Time is almost halfway through!" One of these days, he'll replace this little thing's position, humph!

  "Xiao Hui, Xiao Hui be good, listen carefully, have dinner first, okay?"

  In an instant, the little meatball's eyes were misty with tears. "Mommy... feed me..." This made Qingkong's heart ache even more. Her precious one was fed by her, and everything was this man's fault! It was all his fault!

  "Eat it yourself, or go hungry!" Who does he think he's fooling, saying he won't eat? Nobody believes him!

  "What are you yelling about? Let me go, I need to feed my son."

  "Half of the time has passed!"

  Looking at the man's indifferent face, she panicked after a slight provocation, "Xī'er, Xī'er, hurry up and eat, listen to me, Xī'er be good, you don't want Mommy to worry, right?" After finishing her rapid speech, in her heart, she scolded this man from head to toe.

  "Hmm, I know..." After finishing speaking, the little one blinked with tears and pitifully climbed onto the chair, lowering his head to eat, while still sniffling, making my heart ache.

  This little thing is always pretending, every time it's used to frame him, making Xiao Liu think he's a bad person, even avoiding him.

  "Alright, time's up!"

  "How can it be so fast? He hasn't eaten enough yet!" Qingkong shouted in a hurry.

  "Mom, I'm full... Mom, you have to take care of yourself, I'm really full..." He said with his mouth, but his hand was still touching his belly. Suddenly, he felt that his son was being "insincere". He must not be full, what to do?!

  Come on, come on! Mo Jiu was so angry that he was fuming. How did he not know that Mo Zi needed to eat human food? How did he not know that Mo Zi had to have three meals a day on time? He's just a fake! A complete fake!

  "Hurry up and get him away from me!" The man's impatient roar, if he lets him take another look, he might not be able to control himself and slap the person flying! He must control, must control, can't let him succeed!

  "You bastard, what right do you have, why won't you let my son eat? What right do you have?" The young master was also infuriated to the point of pale face.

  "What's all the fuss about? You don't want him to be okay, do you?" As he spoke, he raised his hand and lunged at Xuan Xi.

  "Xiao Er, come back quickly!"

  When there was finally no annoying little thing in front of her, Mo Jiu's mood suddenly felt a wave of relief. She picked up the chopsticks and was about to feed her, but saw that she still wouldn't eat.

  "Let's eat!"

  She's so angry she doesn't want to eat!

  Want to be tough with him? He has a way. "Don't eat? Then don't eat, I'll 'eat'!" Saying that, he put down his chopsticks and reached out to untie her waistband, revealing the white belly wrap underneath.

  "I'm eating, you're not allowed to explain!" This guy is simply a shameless and despicable person.

  Looking at her small open mouth, Mo Jiu smiled proudly and once again picked up the dish to feed her, watching as she chewed with a "crunch crunch" sound, not minding at all.

  "Put the clothes on me."

  "No! Eat it like this." It looks much better this way! He's stupid if he ties it back for her again.

  Cheap man, one day she will beat him until he cries out for his father and mother, even his own father won't recognize him. Gnashing his teeth with a cracking sound, he only treats the food in his mouth as this man.

  Mo Jiu Yu completely ignored the resentful gaze, only enjoying the beauty in his arms, the warm fragrance and soft jade-like feeling. Hmm, not bad! Another mouthful, he felt very satisfied. No wonder he was so enthusiastic about feeding that little thing every time he saw Xiao Ya Tou, it turned out to be this kind of feeling! Warm, gentle, hmm, a few more mouthfuls would be good.

  "I'm full." Laughing so "flatteringly", it's nauseating to look at. And is she a pig or something? Non-stop, constantly feeding her!

  "Full?" He hasn't even had enough yet! His hand reached out to her belly, really full! But he still wanted to feed, what to do? Or he would help the little girl digest a bit, so she could eat more. Thinking of this, his big hand pressed on her soft and fluffy belly, magic power quietly flashing.

  "What are you doing?" The big hand touched him, and a layer of goosebumps suddenly appeared in an instant.

  "Have some more."

  "I'm full, I can't eat anymore."

  "How is that possible? Look, isn't there still room in your stomach?" And so, to satisfy his warped sense of humor, Mo Jiu Yu forced Qing Kuang to eat even more, then helped her digest it, and continued to feed her.

  Spitting the food directly onto his face, she glared at him with a mixture of disdain and madness. "They say she's had enough to eat, yet they still feed her! Still feed her!" She was now on the verge of going crazy.

  "Really full?" The belly was bulging round and round, it seemed really full.

  "What do you think?"

  "Now that we've eaten, let's go wash up!" He said, picking him up and walking to the side of the bathtub.

  "I don't need you, just let me go!"

  "No way, I'll wash you myself, just like you do with that little thing every time." Thinking of this, he felt jealous, why did that little thing get to see everything?

  "You're really monitoring me! I don't want it, no need for you to wash for me."

  "Don't move!" He scolded, slapping her butt, Mo Jiu Yu put the person down on the ground and stood up straight, one piece at a time stripping off her clothes, slowly revealing her pale skin. Looking at the mark on her collarbone, he was fascinated and touched it, his large hand running along her shoulder, back, and waist, slowly untying the belt, his fingers flipping over, still touching her delicate skin. In an instant, Mo Jiu Yu's breathing became heavier.

  Even with her eyes closed, she could feel the man's wolf-like gaze deeply seared into her skin.

  A large hand slid up her back, slowly unzipping the strap behind her neck as well. Finally, the white camisole couldn't find a place to cling to her slender body and slipped down reluctantly.

  Under the candlelight, the girl's smooth skin was all exposed before his eyes. Mo Jiu Yu hastily removed all her clothes, looking at the little servant girl who seemed like a newborn baby, her eyes suddenly turned red.

  Compared with men's infatuation, the feeling in a woman's heart is shame, humiliation and resentment!

  He reached out with a big hand to her waist, pulling her down into his own arms, until he couldn't see anything, and only then did he suppress all his impulses. But not seeing didn't mean not feeling, the palpitations coming from between breaths were still deeply affecting him.

  One of them picked the other up and put them in the bathtub, Mo Jiu You quickly took off his clothes and got in as well, splashing water everywhere. Sitting face to face, looking at her trembling eyelashes, Mo Jiu You pulled him over and kissed him directly, their long eyelashes fluttering against each other's lips. The man's devout kiss only ended when he opened his eyes. He lightly kissed the tip of his nose, cheeks, mouth corners, gradually moving downwards, lingering on his collarbone until he sucked out red marks one by one, before finally aiming for those two red fruits.

  With both hands grasping her waist, he lifted her up slightly and Mo Jiu's lips savagely bit down on hers. Only after hearing a pained cry did he look at the small face scrunched up in pain, with tightly closed eyes trembling nonstop.

  "Girl, open your eyes and take a look at me, see if I'm good or not?" Supporting her small buttocks, he wrapped his legs around his waist, Mo Jiu wanted to see himself in those eyes.

  "Just take one look at me, just one look, okay?"

  At the sound, she slowly opened her eyes to find the man's deep eyes staring at her in a daze. Calming herself down, she looked away, and since they were both in the bathtub together, with her body still being restrained, asking him to let her go was impossible, so it would be pointless to waste her breath.

  "My little girl......my little girl......" He pinched her chin, making her slightly open her mouth, and Mo Jiu directly kissed her, tightening his waist and pressing her hard against himself. He really wanted to devour this little girl bit by bit!

  "Hmm..." His tongue was both sour and painful, still numb, and he couldn't help but let out a low hum.

  Mo Jiu's body trembled, her fingernails digging into his skin and leaving red marks. "Girl... I want you... Give yourself to me, give me... Is that okay?"

  He was suddenly awakened by a light touch, and his teeth mercilessly bit into him, biting the drunken man awake.

  "You're dreaming!"

  The man suddenly seemed to have lost his soul, stunned in place, but seeing her staring at him with anger, finally suppressed all desires. Mo Jiu Yu hugged her and changed direction, sat on his lap, wrapped his hands around her waist, and pressed his chest against her back, before speaking, "Little girl, come back to the demon realm with me! I'll pamper you, spoil you, okay?" He kissed her neck lightly all the way, his large hand also pinched her arm, pinched her leg, relieving her stiffness.

  If it weren't for this man, being full and content, taking a hot bath would be one of life's greatest pleasures! At this moment, hearing the man speak to her in such a gentle and consultative tone, she was still not quite used to it. However, it's better to say what needs to be said clearly, "Let me go first! I won't run."

  The movement in his hand paused, and Mo Jiu Yu asked uncertainly: "Really not running?"

  "Uh, don't run. Let me go first!" She felt like her whole body wasn't hers anymore.

  The man thought for a moment, even if he ran away, he could catch her back in the first time and dispel the magic on her body, setting him free.

  As expected, she had lost all sense of awareness. She furrowed her brow and massaged her arm, quietly increasing the distance between them, but was pulled back by the man. Feeling helpless, she leaned against his chest, thinking about what to say next.

  Mo Jiu took over the task from her hand, helped her massage her arm, and even used his magic to gently kiss her cheek, saying "What do you want to say?" in a good mood. He had never seen such a well-behaved little girl before, it was great!

  The soreness subsided, and it slowly became very comfortable. The light madness also relaxed the body, letting it do as it pleased. After thinking for a long time, he said, "No matter what you say, I won't go back to the Demon Realm with you."

  "You know I won't change my decision." After pinching his arm, it was time for his leg. He lowered the person to a more comfortable angle, making it easier for him to touch his leg. Looking at the obedient person lying in the crook of his arm, with their small face flushed pink from the warm air, Mo Jue couldn't resist stealing a kiss on those red lips, and was overjoyed.

  Furrowing her brow in discomfort, she leaned back into the man's arms and gazed at the ceiling, saying, "I don't want to spend my time with you like this. I have a lot of things to do. And I don't want to play such childish games with you either. Between us, apart from that one night's fleeting romance, we can only be considered familiar strangers... no, not even familiar."

  "I'll make you familiar with me, isn't it now?"

  "You also understand that the way we are now is not because I couldn't resist, but because it's what I wanted." And to be bathing in the same bathtub with a man she had only met a few times, probably no one else could do something like this except her!

  Punishment bit her once, Mo Jiu You continued to give her a massage, "Don't be allowed to say that."

  "I won't go back to the Demon Realm with you, change your request! As long as I can do it, I'll try my best, and then we can really part ways, each going our own way?" The exhausted girl closed her eyes and said softly, this was her bottom line.

  "I think you have me in your heart." As long as the young master has him in his heart, he will never leave him again, and it doesn't matter whether it's the demon world or the human world.

  "You know this is also impossible." She was now trying her best to control her disgusted emotions.

  "Then I won't let go, this way I can see you every day and that's enough for me." Mo Xiu stroked the slightly drunk little face, and directly became a rogue.

  She suddenly opened her eyes and wondered if everything she had just said was in vain?

  He covered her eyes with his large hand, and the palm was tickled by her blinking eyelashes. "Don't look at me like that." Until she calmed down, there was a long silence between them again.

  What's good about this? For the first time, Qing Kuang was confused and even began to regret why she had to find someone so troublesome.

  The current situation is also not what Mo Jiu Yu wanted to see. If he were to forcibly take her away, he could still do it, but what about afterwards? He would likely incur even more of her dislike, verbal sparring, and possibly even a complete break. Or perhaps something even more terrible would happen. When did the Demon King ever learn to know when to stop? However, looking at this exquisite little person, he wouldn't give up! And in order to subdue the snake, one must hit its seven inches; as for where Little Yu's seven inches were, that goes without saying.

  "Alright, you don't have to return to the Demon Realm with me."

  Looking up at him, she asked lightly and suspiciously, "Really?"

  "Really."

  "If there are any additional conditions, just say it directly. Of course, if you want me to like you, then don't mention it anymore." There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world, everything has its corresponding price, so it's better to be straightforward about the conditions.

  "You know I'm a demon, and that little thing is also a demon. And the difference between demons and others, you should have noticed by now. Human children wouldn't grow this big in just one year, it's because he has passed the initial demonic spirit." Her fingers twirled around her hair as Mo Jiu spoke nonchalantly.

  What's going on? Why did it suddenly turn into a discussion about Xi Er? Is there some kind of conspiracy?

  "So?"

  "The Demon Clan is different from humans, so naturally they can't grow up in the same way as humans. I believe you also saw the pain that little thing went through on its first birthday, that's the initial demonic spirit."

  Looking back on that day, she still feels terrified to this day. She has always known that her son is different from others. But will her treasure have to go through more hardships in the future? She doesn't want to see her son suffer like that again, what should she do? What can be done?

  Those bright, watery eyes, with a pleading gaze, reflected in the ripples of the water's surface, truly made her beauty shine. Only when it came to that little thing did those eyes focus so intently on him, and once again, she lifted her chin, and Mo Jue savored her red lips, savoring the taste, the sound of swallowing saliva right between their ears.

  Looking at the person pressing down on her, she didn't dodge or hide, instead she tilted her head back and let him kiss her lips, his breath filling her mouth. This wasn't the time to provoke him, regardless of whether what he said was true or not, anything related to Yu'er or any potential danger, she had to eliminate it.

  "What's next?"

  "Then, for the demon clan to grow up and become adults, they still have to go through many stages, and each time it's more painful than the last. Last time, he was lucky to get through the initial demonic spirit, after all, this is the human realm, not suitable for the growth of the demon clan. And as long as he wants to continue growing up in this human realm, he will experience a thousand times more pain. Are you sure that when the time comes, you can solve it?"

  "You didn't deceive me?" Upon hearing this, his heart tightened with a burst of anxiety and confusion.

  "I wouldn't deceive you over something as trivial as this." Overbearing, he grasped her slender hand in his own, and Mo Jiu's eyes locked onto the panic in hers, knowing he had made a correct bet. With an air of composure, he smiled, pulling her hand to his lips for a gentle kiss.

  She calmed herself down, suppressing her panic, and gazed calmly at the man who was taking advantage of her, "What does what you said have to do with us?"

  "Of course, it matters! I'm also a demon! I've grown up like this, so of course, I've gone through all the stages. So when you little things 'grow up' each time, if I'm there, it's different, right?"

  "Do you want to take the child away?" The hand was quickly withdrawn, and the soft voice involuntarily grew louder.

  "What's on your mind? I said I wouldn't take him away, and I meant it." He stretched out his hand, waiting for the young master to voluntarily offer his hand.

  "What do you mean? Let me make it clear first, I won't go back to the Demon Realm with you."

  "Of course, you can also choose not to return to the Demon Realm..." He gazed at her with a hint of amusement, and she took the bait.

  "Will you help Xier?"

  "Kiss me and I'll tell you." She said, stretching her face out, waiting for her to take the initiative.

  "Don't be so greedy!" Are you still dissatisfied with the cheap price and want to take advantage of it? The bastard, she's not even wearing clothes and is sitting in his arms now!

  "Hehe, I'm waiting for the day you take the initiative to kiss me. As for a way, of course there is one, but if you don't go back to the Demon Realm with me and still want him to be safe and sound, then this matter won't be easy to handle!" The man looked at her with a seemingly troubled expression, waiting for her to speak up herself.

  After careful consideration, it suddenly became clear that his intention was to stay by her side.

  "Right! Just as you thought, my little girl is really clever!" Pinching her cheek, Mo Jiu praised her.

  What on earth is this guy thinking?

  Staying by your side, you can get the moon first near the water tower, and also drive away all the "flies" around you, then slowly move your heart, and time will breed feelings. Such a three-in-one thing, of course, must be done.

  Two people, you look at me, I look at you, expressions constantly changing.

  "You want to stay by my side, that's not impossible. But don't bully my son, don't interfere with me, don't intervene in my affairs, don't touch me casually, and don't appear in front of me. Can you do that? If you can, I'll agree to it."

  "As long as he doesn't come to provoke me, I naturally won't go to provoke him. Your decision I absolutely will not interfere with, but the last two points..."

  "You don't agree?"

  "What do you think?"

  "Alright, I'll take a step back, you can appear in front of me, but don't touch me. If you don't agree, then forget it!"

  "Deal!" The two of them slapped each other three times, and neither could back down. But when the time comes, whether or not it happens is not up to you, little girl! The man looked at her with an enigmatic gaze. "Alright, after such a long time, the water has gone cold, let's go out first." He then wanted to carry her out.

  Dodging his hand, she took a step back, her eyes warily fixed on him. "You just promised not to touch me again!"

  "But can't you just stay like this forever?"

  "Get out!"

  "What's the point of me leaving if I want this room?" He said, standing not far away staring at her with a gleam in his eyes.

  "You!"

  He pulled someone out of the water with a single hand, and Mo Jiu couldn't help but laugh triumphantly. Had he lived in vain for ten thousand years?

  "Let go, let go, your words don't count!" She struggled non-stop, and was extremely annoyed at this moment. She's just a muddle-headed person, why does she always short-circuit when she encounters this man?

  "Be still, go to sleep." After draining the water from her body, Mo Jiu Yu once again restricted her movements and didn't even give her a single piece of clothing to wear, directly embracing her in his arms.

  "You're just a despicable person, a scoundrel, a rascal! Let me go, let me go! Why are you holding me back again?" She now wished she had sharp teeth to bite him to death.

  "If you scold again, I won't let you speak at all!" When she finally shut up, Mo Jiu Yao kissed her forehead and hugged her tight, saying: "Girl, sleep!"

  The two of them looked at each other in silence, their minds constantly turning over thoughts.

  Qing Kuang thought that as long as this person could help her Hui'er escape safely, she would endure for the time being and kick him away later, out of sight, out of mind.

  Mo Jiu's fantasy was that as long as he always appeared in front of her, one day he would be able to move her and make her obedient.

  But in this contest, who will win and who will lose?

  In the dark room, everything fell silent, and all that could be heard was the man's breathing slowly becoming heavy, a suppressed voice spat out a sentence: "Girl, can you hold me tight? I couldn't bear it..."

  "Get out!"
