C71 (1/2)
Hua Hua's face was pale, her heart was beating incessantly, her shoulders were trembling nonstop, and her frail body was swaying in the cold wind. It seemed as if she would be blown down by the ruthless wind at any moment, making her appear weak and helpless. The countless nightmares of terror in the dark night, the invisible force that gripped her tightly in the darkness, making her unable to break free, dragging her back to that eerie world of death. Suddenly, a pair of sinisterly cold hands reached over and grabbed her throat tightly. A wave of sinister laughter resounded from the darkness, and gradually, those hands became tighter and tighter, like a flower about to suffocate. She felt her soul flying out of her body, the sky was spinning and the earth was spinning, and her vision gradually blurred...
Dugu Jiuyi gave her a comforting look, which was filled with love, serenity, and warmth, as if he was telling her: Don't be afraid, we're all here! A year ago, the lonely flowers flowed here, ragged clothes, thin yellow face, bare parts of the legs and feet were cut by thorns, mottled and painful. Those innocent eyes were filled with hostility, fear, sadness, and the rare tears of youth that Dugu Jiu knew must be the tears of poverty and hunger. On that cold winter's day, she fainted outside Yi An's house. She was rescued by Dugu Jiuyi and placed into a warm room. After lying there for three days and three nights, she slowly opened her eyes and saw Dugu Jiuyi's warm and gentle smile.
From that moment on, Dugu Jiuyi decided to leave the flower in Yi An's house and accept her as his adopted daughter. Even though Dugu Jiuyi had guessed her true identity the moment he saved Hua Hua, that was: a lesser demon that had the lowest rank in the world of demons, who could not endure the cruel and dark rule of the world of demons and did not want to become an emotionless and unfaithful tool of murder, who could escape without permission, had to endure the entire chase from the demon realm. Dugu Jiu Yi understood the viciousness of Li Fengxian's methods, killing the fleeing lesser demons as an example.
Ever since he saw the clean, pure, innocent and childish eyes of the flowers, Dugu Jiuyi's heart had suddenly been stirred up by the inexplicable strong fatherly love. Yes, he was already at the age where he could not be tempted. Alone and alone, hanging by his side, he had no attachment or attachment to his feelings. The appearance of the flower ignited the heart of fatherly love that he hadn't felt in a long time. That feeling of helplessness and helplessness sharp pierced into his heart and awakened a similar rough experience from his youth. He secretly made a decision that he must protect this innocent and kind little girl and help her grow up by defending her from the heartless and merciless hunt that came from the Demon World.
At this moment, the sound of swords being unsheathed came from outside. Dugu Jiu recovered from his shock.
”Flower Demon, hurry up and come back with me to the reappearance of the leader,” a cold and heartless voice along with a moaning, wailing wind was sent inside, ”You ran away from the demon realm on your own, you deserved to die for your crimes, and you still dare to come here and fight back, hurry up and come back with me to your death!”
At this moment, everyone understood the whole story. Yun Jiu Tang's expression was dark as he berated: ”This demon realm is too insolent, to actually gather people to capture such a small matter, don't you allow lesser demons to pursue and be free?”
Shen Jingyang was filled with rage, ”This Demon World is so rude and presumptuous, I'd like to go out and show them what I can!”
”Brother Shooting Sun, don't be impatient.” Li Zongyin took a big stride forward and stopped Shen Jingyang, who was about to rush out. His eyes were filled with hesitation, ”The six realms have a common agreement that each realm, when chasing after their fugitives across the border, can move unrestrained and freely. Today, the Demon World's hunt for the Flower Demon, on the surface, is in accordance with the rules of the Six Realms. Even if we want to take action, we need to find a suitable excuse. If we were to act rashly, wouldn't we be giving the Spirit Demon Realm the truth of slandering Supreme Profound? ”
Li Zongyin's words were not without reason, causing the angry Shen Jingyang to stop in his tracks.
Dugu Jiuyi murmured, ”Young Hero Li's words are not without reason. I've invited all of you here today in order to give everyone a magnificent journey, but who would've thought that it would actually implicate everyone.”
”Old Dugu, what are you saying?” The silent Murong Dawn spoke up. He jumped down from his chair, and with his staggering steps, he said, ”Now that Yi An is in trouble, how can we just stand and watch without doing anything?” Although the words were resolute, the steps that he took to get to the door of the hall had been retracted.
At this moment, the clamoring of the demons outside Yi An's residence became louder and louder, like a wild horse on the verge of breaking free, who knows what kind of action it would take in the next moment.
Gu Xueluo watched the trembling flowers on the side. The beautiful Nutmeg girl had been mercilessly hunted down, disqualified from being an ordinary person. Even if Flower was born to be a demon, she still had the right to choose her own life. Gu Xueluo walked in front of Hua Hua and tightly held her hands. She whispered to her, ”Hua Hua, don't be afraid. With me here, no one will be able to hurt you.” With that, she walked out.
Yun Jiu Tang stood in front of her and said, ”Miss Xue Luo, you'd better not go to something like this. Your actions are causing a conflict between the immortal and demon worlds.” After all, the Demon and Demon Realms are fixed. If the Demon World were to really pursue the matter, then it would be easier for the Demon Ancestor to take control of it. ”
All of you are very distinct and bear the heavy responsibility and mission of different worlds. ”Shen Zhongyang stepped into the hall and said,” I, Shen Zhongyang, have no status or status, and my actions are the most convenient. If the Demon World wants me, they can just look for me. As soon as he said that, he leaped like a wild goose falling to the ground, his figure already jumping several dozen feet away.
Everyone headed for the door, wanting to see what was going on.
Outside of Yi An's residence, the lights and shadows of swords and the sound of thunder could be heard. Shen Yiyang moved as fast as lightning. He didn't even need to summon his hidden bow to instantly kill a few of the Demon Apostles in the lead. The few Spirit Demon disciples staggered up from the snow ground, baring their teeth, they shouted: ”Who are you, we are here on orders to capture the fleeing Little Demon, what does it have to do with you! Don't meddle in other people's business! ”
”Don't you dare act so atrociously in front of my friends. Get lost before I get angry. If you anger me, don't even think about leaving here alive!”
The demons were like headless flies, madly attacking him. Shen Jingyang roared and soared into the sky. Suddenly, a gust of strong gale swirled and swept up the snow on the ground before flying down. The gale wrapped around the snow and whistled down. It was like invisible hidden weapons had hit the bodies of all the demons. Before the crowd of demons could react, Shen Yushi had already sent out several sharp palm shadows. Wherever they struck, the demons cried out miserably and their blood and weapons scattered all over the ground.
The remaining dozen or so demons blankly stood there. They glanced at each other, raised their swords, and fiercely pounced over. Shen Jingyang backed up a few steps, his upright body suddenly bending down slightly. Stretching out his palms, it was as if he was supporting himself with the force of a hundred thousand jin. ”Boom!” A loud sound rang out, and a huge bow appeared in his hands. This was the Dark Hidden Bow!
The rest of his hands moved strongly to move the bowstring. When the bowstring was full of arrows, with a ”sou” sound, dozens of beams of misty air flew out, turning into icicles that pierced through the snow and ice, piercing towards the frenzied demons.
In the time it took for half a cup of tea to boil, the previously aggressive crowd of demons were already lying on the ground, their sharp swords scattered on the ground as they twitched in pain.
Shen Tianyang seemed to be in the middle of a battle. He never expected the Demon Lord to be so weak. Just as he was about to attack again, he was stopped by Dugu Jiu.
”It's enough to teach them a lesson. If they were to throw their lives away, another incident might occur.”
