Chapter 213 Dream of a Past Life (19)
Chapter 213 Dream of a Past Life (19)
The man was on the verge of tears, as if he was about to commit suicide because Yun Zhao was not taking responsibility for him.
Yun Zhao sighed helplessly, "Humans and demons are destined to be different..."
"I don't care," Qi Yan muttered angrily, "I don't care about any of that, I just want one thing from you: do you want me or not?"
Before Yun Zhao could utter any more heartless words, he suddenly transformed into a gigantic gray wolf with light gray fur and a long tail that could encircle Yun Zhao.
Qi Yan nudged Yun Zhao, "Zhao Zhao, this is my true form. I've shown you my true form, which means I've chosen you. No matter where you go, don't even think about leaving me behind!"
Yun Zhao didn't hear what he was saying at all; all she could see was the furry creature.
"Can I touch it?"
Her hands were itching to touch, and Qi Yan readily agreed, inviting, "Touch me anywhere, anywhere!"
Yun Zhao cheered and buried himself in Qi Yan's fluffy fur.
So soft and smooth, you can't help but love it!
Lingxu Palace is not without demonic beasts; Yun Zhao has even touched them, but for some reason, she feels that none of them can compare to Qi Yan.
Waaah, I really want to sleep with a fluffy big wolf!
Qi Yan seemed to sense her thoughts and nuzzled against her affectionately, "Zhao Zhao, do you want to hold me while you sleep? It's super soft and comfortable, want to try?"
Yun Zhao... was moved!
Who could resist a big, furry wolf?
And so, Qi Yan climbed into bed again, this time Yun Zhao took the initiative and held him tightly.
Thus, the disciples of Lingxu Palace saw a wolf demon following their palace master, the two inseparable.
Qi Yan enjoyed Yun Zhao's kisses and hugs, but after Yun Zhao made him maintain his original form for three consecutive days, he stopped giggling.
Okay, okay, you only like his physical form and not his human form, right?
How can he eat meat then? He's unhappy!
After much deliberation, Qi Yan decided to maintain his original form during the day and transform into a human at night. Although he would have to endure Yun Zhao's complaints afterward, he could simply transform back into his original form to appease her.
Over time, Yun Zhao got used to it. Although her memories hadn't returned, Qi Yan occupied an increasingly larger place in her heart.
Until the day Xue Huairui returned, she brought news—Qi Yan's true identity.
A few days ago, there was news about the Demon Clan, and Xue Huairui went out to search for them. Before she could find any of her clansmen, Wu You sent her a message.
Qi Yan was really favored by Yun Zhao. Wu You was afraid that he was a spy sent by other forces. Last time he slandered their Lingxu Palace for colluding with the demons, and next time he might accuse them of colluding with the demon race.
Given that Qi Yan's identity was unclear, Zixu instructed Wuyou to keep an eye on Qi Yan at Lingxu Palace while he went out to investigate Qi Yan's identity.
Wu You also sent a message to Xue Huairui, asking her to investigate as well.
They were shocked when they investigated. Qi Yan hadn't bothered to hide his identity, and their investigation was spot on every occasion.
Qi Yan is actually the Demon Emperor of the Demon Realm!
Zixu and Wuyou were bewildered, but Xue Huairui remained calm.
Appearance, physique, cultivation, background... My sister is a demon god, and I'm just a mere demon emperor. Sleeping with her is no big deal.
In the past, those old guys from the Demon God Palace would grumble every day about wanting to find husbands for Yun Zhao, but Yun Zhao didn't like any of them, which made them very worried!
Now that Yun Zhao has found someone he likes, they can finally rest easy, right?
The old man she was referring to: "..."
Guess why we only recommend our own family members!
It doesn't matter who Yun Zhao takes a liking to; what matters is that she's happy. Xue Huairui doesn't care.
Zixu and Wuyou initially disagreed, after all, he was the Demon Emperor, and if others found out, they would condemn Lingxu Palace for colluding with the demon race.
But after Xue Huairui persuaded them, they stopped worrying about it.
Xue Huairui said, "Someone is keeping the Palace Master from running around. If you can, you can also drive away the Demon Emperor."
Zixu and Wuyou fell silent.
Thus, Qi Yan discovered that since the return of the Vice Palace Master Xue Huairui, the two protectors who had previously been dissatisfied with him had become much more accommodating towards him.
Well, let's just assume they've accepted his identity.
As the days passed, the Nine Heavens Palace still hadn't found out who had instructed their disciple Yu Bin to slander the Lingxu Palace.
It's worth mentioning that Yun Zhao regained her memories of being a demon god, but she did not regain the memories related to Qi Yan.
After some time, they forgot about those matters, not because they didn't investigate, but because a terrifying thing had appeared in the cultivation world.
--The aura of annihilation.
Wherever the aura of annihilation passes, life is ravaged. Whether cultivators or demonic beasts, anyone who comes into contact with the aura of annihilation will have their souls scattered and disappear from the world.
Humans and monsters fled in panic. When they discovered that the aura of annihilation could not enter the secret realm, they rushed to seek refuge there.
Back then, secret realms in the cultivation world were extremely rare, not even enough to accommodate one in a million of the human race. Therefore, major powers and families would send their best disciples into the secret realms, while the rest would stay behind.
The cultivation world is their home. Regardless of any past grievances, they unite against external forces to protect their home!
When Yun Zhao discovered the existence of the Annihilation Qi, the passage between the human and demon realms had already been mostly occupied by the Annihilation Qi, but she could have easily returned to the demon realm.
However, her demon subjects could not return with her.
The passageway cannot withstand so many people; once inside, they will either get lost or be crushed to death.
Xue Huairui acted decisively, leading several clan representatives to kneel and beg Yun Zhao to return to the Demon Realm.
"Ah Rui, I can't leave."
Yun Zhao said solemnly, "It's not just because I can't take you with me, but also because I am the Demon God, the only god under the Heavenly Dao, and it is my duty to protect the world."
"The existence of this 'Extinction Aura,' which disregards all natural laws, will destroy this world!"
Xue Huairui disagreed: "Sister, I don't care what they do, I just want you to live well, I..."
Yun Zhao had anticipated her response, and she said directly, "Arui, are we going back or not? I've already cut off the passage."
"The aura of extinction has already taken over that place. If I go back, it will possess me and then wreak havoc on the demon realm."
"Let's stay here and find a way to eliminate the aura of extinction, then we'll go home together."
Qi Yan didn't leave either. He decisively severed the passage between the human and demon realms. The demon realm was now managed by someone, and he, as the demon emperor, had done a lot for it. It was time for him to abdicate.
“Zhao Zhao,” Qi Yan stood at the highest point of Lingxu Palace, holding her hand, “whether in life or death, I will be with you.”
Yun Zhao paused for a moment, "You could have left, why..."
"Think about the reason yourself," Qi Yan said unhappily. "I say it many times every day, and you still haven't remembered it. Then I'll have to say it even more times in the future!"
I tell her "I like you" countless times every day, but she still can't remember.
I'm so angry!
Seeing his sullen expression, Yun Zhao suddenly chuckled and squeezed his hand back, "I was just kidding, I'll remember that."
"Ah Yan, I like you too~"
Whether in life or death, we will face it together.
