Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"Zi Yan..." Jin Xuan was so frightened that his legs went limp upon seeing this. He had never seen such cruelty in this girl before, but the more he saw her like this, the more determined Jin Xuan became to help her.

He raised the stone in his hand and swung it hard to follow the shaking red snake demon, hoping to hit it.

Helan Ruofeng also recovered at this time. Seeing that Yu Xiaobai had been beaten like a willow catkin in the wind, he could die at any time. He ignored the pain in his body and attacked the red snake demon again.

With the addition of Helan Ruofeng, Yu Xiaobai's hair was freed, and she sucked harder. A steady stream of blood entered her stomach, and she felt her stomach begin to heat up slightly.

Then the blood seemed to have life, and it began to slowly seep into her internal organs and meridians from her stomach. Wherever it went, it was like a volcano that had been dead for thousands of years suddenly erupting, burning her so hard that she wished she was dead.

Yu Xiaobai thought, is this going to kill me? She felt like every cell in her body was about to burst, and it was burning and stinging, which made her more determined not to give in.

"Zi Yan, let go quickly, you will die if you continue like this, Zi Yan, Zi Yan..." Helan Ruofeng shouted loudly.

At this time, Yu Xiaobai's whole body turned red, his hair all stood up, his eyes turned red, and his originally cute face became hideous and distorted, as if controlled by some terrible force.

Her head was still buried in the red snake demon's wrist and refused to move away, as if she wanted to suck all his blood.

Helan Ruofeng had never seen such a situation before, and he could not help but panic. He stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes, thinking to himself: Could it be that Zi Yan was poisoned by a demon? If she was poisoned by a demon at this time, and there was no elixir here to help her detoxify, her soul would be infected by the demon poison, and she herself would eventually become a demon.

However, Yu Xiaobai had completely lost herself and could no longer hear any sound from the outside world. She had only one thought in her mind - to suck the blood of this fat snake! At this moment, a strange object slid into her throat and quickly entered her body.

The red-bellied snake demon suddenly regained its true form at this moment. Yu Xiaobai was forced to leave his wrist and let out a fierce scream.

The red snake demon who had regained his true form fell into endless madness. He dragged his huge body and roared and crashed into the entire cave without any target.

Every impact caused the cave to shake and dust to fly, as if the end of the world was coming. The red snake demon seemed to have been hurt in some way, and it kept venting its pain and anger.

"Take good care of Miss Zi Yan." Helan Ruofeng said to the panicked Jin Xuan, and started chasing the snake demon and attacking it again.

Jin Xuan put the crystal stone in his arms and tried to pick up Yu Xiaobai from the ground, but she was already surrounded by red evil spirits. He saw her slowly rising up, her eyes tightly closed, and her whole body hanging motionless.

Jin Xuan had never seen such a strange situation before, and did not dare to touch Yu Xiaobai easily. He could only watch quietly.

"Swoosh..." A figure suddenly emerged from the water. Wasn't it the crocodile spirit that escaped before?

"I never thought that a human girl like you could absorb the Yuandan from the ancient snake demon by yourself? Anyway, it's useless for you to keep this thing on you, so why don't I help you take it." The crocodile demon said with a sinister look on his face, raised his hand and reached towards Yu Xiaobai's heart.

"Zi Yan..." Jin Xuan screamed in fear, thinking that Zi Yan was dead.

Just when he thought Yu Xiaobai was dead, a red light shot out from Yu Xiaobai's body and directly bounced the crocodile demon out.

The crocodile screamed and fell into the water like catkins, splashing large amounts of water.

Jin Xuan looked at this scene in surprise, not knowing what was going on. At this moment, Yu Xiaobai's body began to emit a faint light, and when the light slowly disappeared, it fell heavily to the ground with a "thump".

After a long time... she slowly opened her eyes, her mind was a mess, she couldn't figure out who she was and why she was here.

"Zi Yan? What's going on?" Jin Xuan muttered to himself.

Yu Xiaobai did not answer his question, but moved slowly and gently to Jin Xuan's side. Her face was a little pale, but her eyes became brighter and deeper.

"Zi Yan, are you okay?" Jin Xuan asked with concern.

Yu Xiaobai turned his head to look at Jin Xuan and shook his head to indicate that he was fine. He stretched out his hand and looked for a moment, then everything that had just happened slowly appeared in his mind like a rewind.

"Where is Helan Ruofeng?" she asked softly.

"Boom..." A loud noise was heard, and the crystal stones above the head began to fall down.

"Be careful..." Jin Xuan pounced on Yu Xiaobai almost instinctively.

Yu Xiaobai was so frightened by his action that her body froze. It was the first time she was so close to a boy, and a feeling of heat quietly crept up her cheeks.

"Do you still have time to flirt? Hurry up and use the crystal stones to attack the barrier." Helan Ruofeng was originally fighting with the red snake demon, but the two of them were not in a hurry and could not tell the priorities.

"Are you okay?" This time it was Xiaobai who asked Jin Xuan.

"It's okay, let's break the barrier first." Jin Xuan hurriedly got up.

At this time, large pieces of crystal stones had fallen to the ground, flashing with strange light.

Jin Xuan and Yu Xiaobai didn't think much about it. They did as Helan Ruofeng said, picked up the crystal stones on the ground and threw them hard towards the edge of the barrier.

Jin Xuan threw it out, but the place where he was hit by the crystal stone did not move at all, and did not respond at all.

Yu Xiaobai felt a little depressed when she saw this, but she still threw the stone in her hand with force. She didn't know anything else, so she just threw it with force, and the barrier that had been motionless before suddenly had a crack like glass, but the crack closed again in an instant.

"Huh?" Yu Xiaobai was stunned. She actually loosened the barrier. So she tried again, picked up a few larger crystal stones and smashed them towards the barrier.

Miraculously, the barrier actually disappeared.

The red snake demon that was fighting with Helan Ruofeng saw that the barrier had been broken, so it broke through the hole and ran away.

"The snake demon has escaped. Should we still chase it?" Jin Xuan asked Helan Ruofeng, whose clothes were already torn and covered in blood.

He fought with Snake Waist the longest and most fiercely. At this time, his clothes were tattered and he had countless wounds on his body. Blood seeped out from the tattered clothes and dyed his white clothes red.

"I won't chase you anymore." There was a tired but still tenacious smile on his face.

"So should we continue to catch monsters now?" Jin Xuan said and shook the empty Qiankun bag in his hand.

"Isn't there a ready-made one in the water?" Helan Ruofeng looked at the water with a bleak smile.

The crocodile demon was lying on the water, half dead and unconscious.

"Does death count too?" Yu Xiaobai asked, pointing at the crocodile spirit.

"He is not dead yet." After saying this, Helan Ruofeng endured the pain in his body, slowly walked to the edge of the pond, and began to cast magic.

As he moved, the crocodile demon, though in a coma, showed an extremely painful expression on his face. At the same time, a golden bead emitting dazzling light was slowly peeled off from his body. The bead shone with a mysterious and powerful aura, which surprised Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan.

"I only want his inner elixir, you can take it." Looking at the scene in front of him, Helan Ruofeng turned around and said to Jin Xuan. He originally came here to get the inner elixir because of his master's request. Now that he has successfully obtained it, there is no need for him to take the crocodile spirit away.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Helan." Hearing this, Jin Xuan was so excited that he trembled a little, and quickly took out the Qiankun bag and tried to put the crocodile essence into it. However, due to being too nervous and excited, he tried several times before he finally succeeded in putting the crocodile essence into the bag.

"Now among the three of us, you are the only one who has no gains, Brother Helan?" Jin Xuan felt a little embarrassed. Others fought so hard, but he got the advantage.

"It doesn't matter. We still have two days anyway." Helan Ruofeng said as if nothing had happened.

"Helan Ruofeng, are you okay?" Yu Xiaobai looked at the wounds on his body with concern. The tattered clothes were intertwined with blood. His messy hair and tired expression made him look very weak.

"It's okay, I just need to regulate my breathing." After saying that, he sat down in meditation on the spot.

"In that case, why don't we wait for him here?" Yu Xiaobai suggested.

"If we sit here for two days without eating or drinking, will we starve to death?" Jin Xuan said shyly, touching his stomach.

"Brother Jin Xuan, are you hungry?" Yu Xiaobai asked with a smile.

"You don't have to be embarrassed. In fact, I started to feel hungry after just a short while of walking. If I wasn't afraid that you would laugh at me, I would have started shouting a long time ago." Yu Xiaobai scratched his head embarrassedly.

The food at Yunji Villa was all vegetarian, but Yu Xiaobai was a carnivore, and she had all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and the sea every day at the high priest's place. But when she came to this broken villa, she was fed with all kinds of inedible food. She thought that becoming Zi Yan might make her feel better, but she still ate only bland food.

"Gurgle, gurgle..." She had just finished saying this when her stomach started growling.

"Gugugu..." Jin Xuan looked at Yu Xiaobai awkwardly, with a hint of shyness and embarrassment on his face.

Then the two of them looked at each other and laughed, and their laughter echoed throughout the cave.

"Why don't we see if there's anything to eat in the water? Maybe we can grill some fish here." Yu Xiaobai was daydreaming as he looked at the pink water in the pond. His heart was full of anticipation. It would be a unique experience if he could taste the delicious grilled fish in this mysterious cave.

"Are there fish in this water?" Jin Xuan couldn't help but ask, with confusion and curiosity in his eyes.

"Now that we have taken away the crocodile monster, the water should be safe, right?" As Yu Xiaobai spoke, he rubbed his hands together, eager to try, as if he couldn't wait to give it a try.

"Probably, there may be no fish. We made such a big noise before, even if there were any fish, they must have been scared away, right?" Jin Xuan reminded, scanning the water for any suspicious signs.

"Huh? What is that?"

Suddenly a white thing came out of the water, scaring Yu Xiaobai and Jin Xuan so much that they stared at it with their eyes wide open. At the same time, they picked up a few crystal stones, thinking that if that thing dared to cause trouble, they would smash it to death with stones.

When it got closer, we found that it was a crocodile with its belly turned up.

"Is it dead?" Yu Xiaobai turned around and asked Jin Xuan.

"It should be dead!" Jin Xuan shook his head. He didn't know either. He had never seen how a crocodile died.

"Try it?" Yu Xiaobai asked.

"How to try?" Jin Xuan asked.

"Think of a solution!" Yu Xiaobai frowned angrily. This man said he was hungry but didn't think of a solution. But he couldn't be blamed. After all, he was born an emperor and was used to being surrounded by people and being served.

"What should I do?" Jin Xuan stood up and looked around in confusion.

Yu Xiaobai sighed helplessly and threw a crystal stone into the crocodile's belly, but the guy didn't move at all. He threw another one, but it still didn't move at all. It looked like it was really dead.

Jin Xuan couldn't help but feel happy when he saw this. He looked at Yu Xiaobai excitedly, and the two smiled at each other again.

"You stay with Brother Helan, I'll go find something to lure the delicious food over." Yu Xiaobai said as he wandered around the cave happily.

She wandered around for a while and came back with a bundle of grass with her bare hands. There was not even a stick here. The only thing was the grass that had grown wildly to be almost as tall as a person.

"Is this okay?"

Jin Xuan asked curiously.

"As long as I say yes."

Yu Xiaobai connected the grasses together, tied a larger crystal stone with one end of the grass, and threw the heavy end directly out to entangle the crocodile. She pulled hard and the crocodile was pulled out of the water obediently.

There was a sharp crystal pillar stuck on the back of the overturned crocodile. It seemed that the red-bellied snake demon shattered the crystal when it was running around in the cave, and it fell into the pool and killed the crocodile.

"Miss Zi Yan, can this be eaten?" Jin Xuan asked Yu Xiaobai while staring at the crocodile with curiosity.

"Yes, I know that crocodiles are edible. As for whether this crocodile essence can be eaten, I think it should be edible as well."

Although Yu Xiaobai has never eaten crocodile meat, she has seen a lot of news about it. It is said that crocodile meat has a unique taste, and is firmer and more elastic than chicken and beef. After taking a bite, the meat is not loose, and it gradually releases delicious juice. Just thinking about it, her mouth began to secrete saliva.

"You call this a crocodile?" Jin Xuan stared at her in confusion and asked.

"If this isn't a crocodile, then what is it? Is it a monitor lizard?" Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but frown. She really couldn't tell the two things apart.

"This is a crocodile!" Jin Xuan said seriously with his eyes wide open.

"Alligator? It's a crocodile, so be it. If we want to stay here for two days, we have to eat. Now that this thing is delivered to our door, we might as well eat it."

As Yu Xiaobai spoke, he was thinking about how to cut the crocodile in half. After some trial and error, the two of them used peach wood swords and crystal stones in turn and finally cut the crocodile into pieces.

After it is cut into pieces, how to roast it becomes a problem.

Jin Xuan sat on the ground with a dejected look on his face. Fortunately, he was just a little hungry and was not so hungry that he had to eat raw meat.

"what can we do about it?"

To be honest, just by looking at the texture of the meat and its tempting color, Yu Xiaobai can imagine how tempting the crocodile meat with oil oozing out of it is.

"Why don't I go out for a walk? When we first arrived on the island, there seemed to be a lot of dead wood along the way." Yu Xiaobai looked at Helan Ruofeng who closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing, and said hesitantly. After all, someone needs to guard this place.
