"This little friend has a very bad temper. He wants to kill my son in my territory if we don't agree with you. If you don't know, you might think you are a demon. You are so arrogant."
Lou Jinhuan breathed a sigh of relief, the Demon Lord had finally appeared.
As soon as her eyes flashed, she saw the Demon Lord appearing out of thin air between Xie Huaizhi and Jian Rong. With such unpredictable strength, he was probably not far away from ascension.
Jian Rong's expression finally became serious. He looked at the tall man in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Are you the Demon Lord?"
"I haven't left seclusion for many years, and you juniors don't even recognize me."
From the beginning to the end of his probing gaze, Jian Rong had a feeling of being seen through.
His whole body was tense, and he clenched the sword in his hand without leaving any trace.
"The talent is indeed good, and the future is limitless. Unfortunately, there is a demonic barrier in your heart. If you can't break through, your realm will only end here."
Jian Rong's heart skipped a beat, and the next moment she saw the Demon Lord suddenly swinging his palm. Jian Rong raised his sword to block it, but it felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back and he couldn't lift his hand at all.
He could only bear this palm for the rest of his life.
With a "bang", he fell to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Although we will soon be a family, if you shout and kill on my territory, if I don't teach you a lesson and everyone follows suit, where will my dignity go?"
The Demon Lord turned his head and glanced at Xie Huaiyi, "My son and your disciple are in love. I have agreed to the marriage and will go to Yuhuizong tomorrow to propose marriage."
"I -" Jian Rong wanted to say something more, but Demon Lord raised his hand to interrupt him.
"Stop talking about your big ideas. I don't want to hear it. I will ask you a question. If you don't agree, you will provoke a confrontation between the immortals and the demons. When the two realms go to war, the world will be devastated. Can you bear this crime?"
Jian Rong raised her head suddenly, in disbelief, "You want to start a war with the Immortal Sect over this trivial matter?"
"But you want to disturb the peace between the two tribes for such a trivial matter." Lou Jinhuan suddenly said, Jian Rong's expression froze, and her face looked a little ugly.
That was the embarrassment of being exposed.
"Elder Jian, why does a very simple thing have to be so complicated?"
Lou Jinhuan looked at Xie Huaizhi, who then came down to her side and held her hand.
The two of them looked at Jian Rong together, "If I marry Xie Huaizhi, I can exchange for a hundred years of peace between the two races. Do you still think it is wrong?"
Jian Rong was silent.
Lou Jinhuan found it ridiculous to see him like this.
"Since Elder Jian is silent, it must be worth it. You should go back and discuss it with the leader and give us an answer tomorrow."
After saying that, she pulled Xie Huaizhi and turned around to go to the meeting hall, "First, bandage the wound."
"good."
Xie Huaizhi responded and leaned on Lou Jinhuan's shoulder, "Jinhuan, it hurts me so much."
Lou Jinhuan patted his head with his backhand, "Don't make trouble."
The voice was helpless and doting, but it was like a knife piercing Jian Rong's heart.
He watched the two people drifting away, and the light in his eyes dimmed little by little.
The Demon Lord said softly: "What are you looking at? Did you want to start earlier? Do you regret it now? It's too late. People in your immortal sect are always sanctimonious. They talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality all day long. You don't even dare to love or hate casually. Said, life is really frustrating and boring.”
He lowered his eyes to meet Jian Rong's cold gaze and raised his eyebrows without fear: "Okay, go back. You will definitely compromise in the end. I am waiting for good news from you."
After saying that, he turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared on the spot.
Jian Rong clenched her hands and remained silent for a long time. She stood up from the ground and left without even bothering to clean the dust off her body.
…
"Hiss, it hurts——"
Xie Huaizhi leaned on the bedside and couldn't help but grab Lou Jinhuan's hand.
Lou Jinhuan stopped applying the medicine and looked up at him, "Does it hurt?"
Xie Huaizhi pursed his lips and said, "Okay, it's a little itchy."
His sword wound was in the waist and abdomen, where the skin and flesh were tender and more sensitive. It hurt and itched when the powder was sprinkled on it, and Lou Jinhuan's hand would fall on it from time to time, which was simply a kind of torture.
Lou Jinhuan looked at his red earlobes, suddenly realized, and couldn't help but smile, "Bear it."
She sprinkled the last bit of medicinal powder on it, wrapped it in a clean cloth, and tied it in a knot. As soon as she finished packing it, Xie Huaizhi grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Lou Jinhuan struggled a little, "Isn't it painful? It won't hurt anymore?"
Xie Huaizhi smiled and said, "It won't hurt if I hold you. Be good, let me hold you for a while."
"Yeah." Lou Jinhuan had nothing to do with him, so he turned to the side, trying not to put pressure on his wound.
The two were silent for a while, and Xie Huaizhi suddenly asked: "Can Jian Rong think about it when he goes back this time?"
Lou Jinhuan shook his head, "Don't worry, he knows how to choose."
"What should I say?" Xie Huaizhi tangled his fingers in her hair and played with it.
"Jian Rong became the elder of the Jade Hui Sect. In addition to his high cultivation level, another reason is that he has extremely strict requirements on himself. He really takes protecting the people of the world as his own duty, so he hates the demon clan in particular. "
"If the marriage between the two of us can ensure a hundred years of peace between the Immortal Sect and the Demon Clan, he will definitely agree. Nothing is more important than his belief, not even me."
Xie Huaizhi was silent for a moment, then raised his head and kissed the side of Lou Jinhuan's neck, "But to me, you are the most important."
Lou Jinhuan turned her head to look at him, their eyes met, she smiled softly, "I know."
Otherwise she wouldn't have chosen him.
Sure enough, not long after Jian Rong returned, the Jade Huizong issued a formal invitation, inviting Demon Lord and Xie Huaizhi to visit the Jade Huizong for a chat. Every line was welcoming.
Early the next morning, Lou Jinhuan and Xie Huaizhi followed the Demon Lord to the Jade Huizong.
The original leader in the Yuhui Sect and the senior sister among her peers suddenly turned into the future Demon Queen. This change in identity was unacceptable to many disciples of the Yuhui Sect.
They gathered in the square and looked at Lou Jinhuan, who was walking side by side with Xie Huaizhi, with mostly sympathetic eyes.
Lou Jinhuan was confused, [Why are they all looking at me like this? 】
001 explained: [Maybe they think you are forced to sacrifice yourself for the Immortal Sect and the human race. 】
Lou Jinhuan: [……]
She's not that noble.
"Senior sister!"
Lou Jinhuan was startled, it was Cong Xin.
She watched Cong Xin separate from the crowd and run over, "Why are you here?"
Cong Xin pursed her lips, looked at Xie Huaizhi and then at the Demon Lord, and asked without fear: "Senior sister, are you doing this voluntarily?"
Lou Jinhuan smiled: "Of course."
The light in her eyes couldn't be faked. Cong Xin felt relieved and her eyes were a little moist. "That's fine. As long as you are happy, will you come back to Jade Huizong in the future?"
Lou Jinhuan paused, looked around, and shook her head: "No way."
"I understand." Cong Xin took a deep breath, "I will go to the demon clan to see you in the future."
Lou Jinhuan raised his hand and touched her hair, "Practice well, I'll wait for you."
