Chapter 22 - tarve to Death or Seeking Death? (2/2)

Nan Xun was moved and quickly took her arm. “Thank you, Hong Chou, but don’t blame Lan Shui. In this whole demon domain, who dares defy the Demon King’s orders?”

Hong Chou said: “I’m not defying it, but the Demon King hasn’t been present for a few days and doesn’t know I’ve been here.”

Nan Xun was embarrassed to ask, “Hong Chou, I’m a little hungry. Can you get me something to eat?”

Hong Chou was stunned at first, then laughed loudly, “Wang really forgotten that his wife is not like us and needs to eat all kinds of grain.”

With Hong Chou’s help, Nan Xun has escaped starving to death.

It’s just that she is worried again. Xue Ming clearly said not to step out of the palace, now that she is out, she doesn’t know if she can return?

The answer is obviously no.

“Madam, quickly return to your palace. You’re exposed to the knife’s edge right now. Those old demons have long wanted to take your life.” Hong Chou urges.

Nan Xun looked embarrassed. “Can I return once I leave?”

Hong Chou laughed and said: “The average person can’t, unlike them, you are his wife and have the Demon King’s love for several years. The Demon King’s scent already lingers on your body. Only a meager amount of Xuan can let you break through the barrier and enter.”

Nan Xun was shocked after hearing the words, “several years” and asked the void beast, “Little eight, did I spent several years living in the Demon King’s palace?”

The void beast answered, “Yes, or so you would think.”

For a moment, Nan Xun felt endless emotions. She listened to Hong Chou and went directly to the enchantment, but her forehead was repelled by the barrier.

Nan Xun couldn’t help but look at Hong Chou, didn’t she say she only need a little Xuan?

Hong Chou said, “Sorry madam, I forgot that you’re just a junior master.”

Nan Xun felt that she had made rapid progress but heard the disdain from Hong Chou’s mouth.

When she first arrived in the demon domain, she was still an apprentice. Xue Ming fed her all kinds of elixir every day and now is a junior master.

From an apprentice to junior master, she feels that her progress was amazingly rapid. The palace was above the demon realm. There were almost no natural elements within the air, it was all dark elements. She can only practice with that element. Besides, she spends very little time practicing daily and the rest of her time is devoted to a certain snake.

Hong Chou thought for a moment and said: “I have no intention spying from the shadows. If the madam doesn’t dislike it, I’ll be in your shadow and go with you.”

Nan Xun was in a daze, thinking back to when the Demon King had hidden in the long-eared rabbit’s shadow. Wasn’t this a secret method, how can Hong Chou use it?

Nan Xun immediately clap her hands, “Very good.” Then said with a thick face, “Why don’t you take some more food with you?”

Hong Chou waved the storage bag in her hand and smiled: “Here, it’s all dry food.”

The two people went together with Hong Chou hidden within Nan Xun’s shadow. With her help, Nan Xun easily entered the protective enchantment and returned to the palace.

This time with dry food reserves, Nan Xun doesn’t have to worry about starving to death.

In the palace, Hong Chou left her shadow, and dumped the dry food from the storage bag onto the ground.

“Thank you, Hong Chou. I’ll say a few nice words in front of Xue Ming when he comes back. Quickly leave, if you leave your scent here, you will not be happy when Xue Ming comes back.” Nan Xun reminded.

Hong Chou didn’t answer, she stared at Nan Xun incredulously, and her voice was slightly elevated. “Xue Ming? You called wang’s name directly!”
