Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

Chapter 77 Yu Xiaobai's Suspicion

Helan Ruofeng looked at Yu Xiaobai in shock. He had been traveling for a long time, but the first time he killed a creature was three years ago when he hunted a crocodile in the secret realm of Danxia Peak. He didn't expect that Yu Xiaobai's first kill would be a monster this time.

Yu Xiaobai was also frightened by her own actions. She stared at the man who died with his eyes wide open. He was smiling at her strangely, and the last two words he said, if she heard it correctly, were - beating to death.

I remember Lan Moqiu once said that Mei Yu was the life sword of a good friend of his, named Zhang Sha. The man in black recognized Zhang Sha at first sight, and he himself is a demon. What does this mean?

Lan Moqiu took her to Wanbao Pavilion to buy the Pi Lingzhu at a high price, just to cover up her identity as a demon. There couldn't be only one Pi Lingzhu, if Lan Moqiu himself also had one. Then what was the identity of Lan Moqiu, the high priest of the New Moon Kingdom, whose origins were unknown? A demon?

Yu Xiaobai was so shocked by her discovery that she broke into a cold sweat. The reason she killed the man in black was simply because she didn't want to see his soul destroyed. As long as his soul was still there, he might be able to be reborn as an ordinary person in the next life. But if his soul was damaged, he would not be able to be a ghost.

"Who released the sword?" The people from the Yuling Sect began to ask loudly.

Huo Ning went straight to the body of the man in black, drew his sword, and looked at everyone around him with a sinister look.

Yu Xiaobai, who had put down his sword, was still lost in his own doubts, but when he heard Huo Ning's voice, he reflexively raised his hand.

"The sword is mine," she said guiltily.

Helan Ruofeng was also worried that Huo Ning would get into trouble, so he hurried over to help her get the sword.

"Senior brother, can you give me the sword?" He walked up to Huo Ning and stretched out his hand.

"You were also there that time outside of Chancheng?" Huo Ning asked coldly.

"In..." Helan Ruofeng only said one word.

Huo Ning stopped talking and threw the sword directly to Helan Ruofeng.

Helan Ruofeng took the sword and quickly retreated back to Yu Xiaobai.

"Why did you suddenly attack and kill that demon man just now?" He stepped back and leaned close to Yu Xiaobai and asked in his ear.

"I was just enjoying the fight just now. I was so addicted that I couldn't stop for a while!" Yu Xiaobai said nervously on purpose.

Her explanation made sense. After all, it was normal that she was so angry that she couldn't stop herself from attacking.

Gu Yunnuo also came to Yu Xiaobai.

"Is this Yu Xiaobai, the disciple of the New Moon High Priest? I didn't expect that he has such achievements at such a young age." Gu Yunnuo looked at Yu Xiaobai with admiration and asked.

"It's me. Who are you, sister?" Yu Xiaobai asked politely when he saw that she had no ill intentions.

"Xiao Yu, she is Gu Yunnuo, Senior Sister Gu from Xiaoyao Sect." Zi Yan hurried out and said.

"Oh, it's Senior Sister Qianying and the others' senior sister? I didn't expect that Senior Sister Gu is not only beautiful, but also speaks so nicely." Yu Xiaobai reacted immediately and hurriedly praised her.

I never thought that the leader of Xiaoyao Sect would accept disciples, and each of them is not only extremely beautiful, but also has such good character. He truly lives up to the name of Xiaoyao Sect.

"Thank you for the compliment, Xiaoyu. You are very beautiful too!" Gu Yunnuo and Yu Xiaobai started a round of commercial mutual praise.

"Little Fish..." Helan Ruofeng suddenly reached out and pulled Yu Xiaobai.

"What's wrong?" Yu Xiaobai asked, pretending to accidentally avoid his hand.

"The people from the Yuling Sect have left, and the people from other sects have also left, but the body is still here!" Helan Ruofeng meant, what should we do next?

"Ruofeng, why don't we find a place to bury him?" Yu Xiaobai knew that saying this would definitely attract attention, but he couldn't help but say it.

"What?" Helan Ruofeng was startled at first, then he seemed to have figured something out and nodded in agreement: "If you want to do this, I will help you!"

"Do you really want to collect the body of this demon man? He is the culprit who killed many humans." Gu Yunnuo asked in confusion.

"Senior Sister Gu, isn't it said that when a person dies it's like a light going out? He's already dead, so everything he did in the past is just like a passing cloud. Just bury him and let dust return to dust, earth to earth." Yu Xiaobai explained in order to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

"Anyway, the evildoer has been eliminated. I still have to track down other murderers. You can bury them if you want!" Gu Yunnuo said, and left.

Apart from the corpse, only Yu Xiaobai and his group of four were left at the scene.

"Xiao Yu, do you really want to bury this body?" Zi Yan asked puzzledly.

"Of course, do you want to go with us?" Yu Xiaobai looked at Zi Yan and asked.

"My hand is injured and it's not very convenient. How about I go back to the inn first?" Zi Yan was telling the truth. Both of his arms were stabbed by Sa Yulong. It was a bit difficult for him to even get something to eat, so he definitely couldn't help.

"Cong Li, accompany Zi Yan back to the inn! You have no attack power, and she has no defense ability now, so it's safer to stay in the inn." Helan Ruofeng suggested.

After all, he and Yu Xiaobai were going to bury the body, so one less person was better than one more.

"That's right, you two are equivalent to trash now. I'll let Heiduo send you back! It would be bad if you meet other bad guys on the way." Yu Xiaobai said without knowing what was wrong.

"Okay, then we'll go back to the inn first." The waste Cong Li responded obediently.

The useless Zi Yan was not angry at all and followed Cong Li away obediently.

The guard Hei Duo followed the two of them obediently, his forked tail swaying rhythmically.

When Helan Ruofeng saw that everyone who should leave had left, he turned his gaze to the nosy Yu Xiaobai.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" asked the nosy Yu Xiaobai.

"Use your Qiankun bag to collect his body!" Helan Ruofeng suggested.

Although Yu Xiaobai was a little bothered, he still took out the Qiankun bag and collected the body of the man in black.

"Where do we bury him?" Yu Xiaobai asked cautiously.

What she did today was a little abnormal, and she was worried that Helan Ruofeng would be angry or doubt her original intention.

"Oh, you have already decided to collect his body, but you haven't decided where to bury him!" Helan Ruofeng said to her with a doting look on his face.

"After all, I took his life in a moment of impulse. Collecting his body is like repaying his debt." Yu Xiaobai took a deep breath and said earnestly.

"Just find a good spot in the suburbs and let's go out of the city!" Helan Ruofeng had to find a place for Yu Xiaobai, because he liked her after all.

Yu Xiaobai had never dealt with such a thing before, so he could only follow Helan Ruofeng's suggestion.

The two made their decision and headed out of the city.

"Did you hear what he said before he died?" As they walked, Helan Ruofeng suddenly remembered the scene before the man in black died.

"Did you hear it? What did he say?" Yu Xiaobai asked in surprise.

"I seemed to hear him say two words, tent gauze..." Helan Ruofeng tilted his head and said to Yu Xiaobai.

"Killed with a stick? Did you hear that clearly?" Yu Xiaobai asked tentatively.

"I should have heard it clearly, but I don't know what he meant by the veil." Helan Ruofeng said puzzledly.

"Ruofeng, do you think all the monsters deserve to die?" Yu Xiaobai suddenly changed the topic.

"What do you think, Xiaoyu?" Helan Ruofeng asked back.

"I think the demons, immortals, and humans are all living beings. They are all divided into good and bad, and not all of them are bad. Some of the bad ones deserve to die, and some don't. We can't generalize." Yu Xiaobai said based on the facts.

Just like her, isn't she just a good and innocent baby? She just wants to live a peaceful life, with good food and fun things to do, and that's all she wants.

"Except for Cong Li, I haven't met any other good monsters. However, Master said that Cong Li is from the mermaid clan that is in charge of the water tribe. Mermaids are naturally kind and cannot be classified with other monsters." Helan Ruofeng explained.

"Is that so?" Yu Xiaobai couldn't help feeling guilty after listening to his explanation.

"However, I also hope that most monsters are kind and will not harm us humans." Helan Ruofeng said with hope.

"I hope so!" Yu Xiaobai said helplessly.

Her true form is a dog, so what about Lan Moqiu? What is he? Or is he just a person who believes that the demon race is kind? An immortal cultivator?

While Yu Xiaobai was absent, Helan Ruofeng led her to a hillside outside Hanyu City.

"The terrain here is high and steep, with a mountain behind and a stream in front. It's a good location. Let's bury him here?" Helan Ruofeng said, pointing to a flask.

After hearing this, Yu Xiaobai took out the Qiankun bag and poured out the body of the man in black.

Not long after the corpse fell out, its true form was revealed: a giant python with a black body.

"Oh my god..." Yu Xiaobai was so scared that he dropped his Qiankun bag on the ground. When he turned around, he fell on Helan Ruofeng like a kangaroo.

Helan Ruofeng glanced at the black python on the ground, reached out and took Yu Xiaobai into his arms, gently patting her back to comfort her.

What is Yu Xiaobai most afraid of in her life? Nothing but snakes. If she hadn't seen Helan Ruofeng dying in the secret realm, how could she dare to do that? God knows what kind of determination she made in her heart to dare to do that.

Today she unexpectedly saw such a huge python again, and it was already her limit to resist peeing her pants out of fear.

At this moment, she felt her heart pounding, her hands and feet were weak, and she couldn't even stand steadily.

"Don't be afraid, Xiaoyu, don't be afraid. I'm here. He's already dead. You killed him with your own hands. Have you forgotten?" Helan Ruofeng patted her back gently and whispered to comfort her.

Yu Xiaobai took a deep breath for a long time before calming her pounding heart. She said fearfully, "Ruofeng, why don't we just not bury it and leave! My scalp goes numb just thinking about what it looks like."

"How about you come down and wait aside and I'll bury it?" Helan Ruofeng continued to coax.

"No, you can't let me go." Yu Xiaobai begged in a trembling voice.

"Or, let's burn it on the spot!" Helan Ruofeng thought that since he was already here, how could he make a wasted trip?

"Then he shouldn't be completely dead, right?" Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but ask.

"No, we only cremated his body, not his soul." Helan Ruofeng explained softly.

"Okay, then you cook it!" Yu Xiaobai said, but he was still hanging on Helan Ruofeng.

"I can't use the Lust Technique when you're like this." Helan Ruofeng looked at the octopus on his body with a helpless look.

"I can get back on your back. I won't get off anyway." The octopus said shamelessly.

Helan Ruofeng could only helplessly move Yu Xiaobai from his arms to his back.

"Hold on to me tight, I'm going to cast the Fire Control Technique, don't fall down!" After Helan Ruofeng gave the instructions, he began to concentrate on casting the spell, and soon the giant python's body began to burn.

Helan Ruofeng carried Xiaobai on his back and stood there guarding until only a handful of dust was left on the ground.

"This way he can be reincarnated, right?" Yu Xiaobai asked again when he saw this.

"According to what the master said, it is like this. After death, all sentient beings in the six realms will go to the banks of the Netherworld River and wait in line to enter the next reincarnation." Helan Ruofeng said as he walked with Yu Xiaobai on his back.

Where is Yu Xiaobai now? She has long forgotten what she said last night. What about keeping a distance, what about treating Helan Ruofeng as a brother? Now she is treating her brother as her cattle and horses.

While enslaving her brother, she talked about keeping her distance.

The two of them walked along the way. Yu Xiaobai smelled Helan Ruofeng's slightly fragrant long hair and fell asleep unknowingly.

It was already evening when we returned to Hanyu City.

When Yu Xiaobai woke up, she asked to get out of bed and walk, and Helan Ruofeng obediently put her down.

I thought, she didn't seem scared when I killed the man in black, but she was so scared that her legs went weak when she saw his true form. If she saw the red snake demon back then, she would faint.

"Xiao Yu, you are afraid of snakes, right?" Helan Ruofeng asked. It was a pity that he had suspected that she was a red-bellied snake demon at the beginning.

"Well, that thing is soft and cold. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle and I can't walk." Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but feel scared when he thought about what he had just seen.

"You are so scared of dead snakes, what if you see a living snake?" Helan Ruofeng asked again.

"Hmm?" Yu Xiaobai thought for a moment and replied, "There are two possible outcomes. One is that I muster up the courage to kill him, and the other is that I get scared and die."

"What does 'Liangliang' mean?" As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Helan Ruofeng's memory suddenly went back to a day three years ago.

That was a close call. If you had also fallen and couldn’t get up, we would both be really finished. Ah…hahaha, what does “cold” mean? Let’s get on with our journey. Anyway, thank you for pulling me up. I’ll explain to you what “cold” means later…

Three years ago, when they were trying to pass the Danxia Peak, Miss Zi Yan also said the word "Liangliang", but she has not explained to him what Liangliang means until now.

He had probably guessed what Liangliang meant by now, but what surprised him was why Xiaoyu also liked to say that.

"It's a bit cold... It's probably what it means literally, that the result is not as good as expected... That's probably it..." Yu Xiaobai explained vaguely.

Back at the inn, the place was much busier than the previous few days. There were several more waiters, and even the shopkeeper came to greet the guests.

When Zhou Ze heard about Yu Xiaobai's killing of the demon tribe today, he thought highly of her. Mo Xiaotan and others were also envious and jealous, wondering when they could be so powerful.

Sa Yulong stood beside Zhou Ze without saying a word. She secretly observed every immortal sect disciple in the inn, eliminating the demon spy one by one.

Zhou Ze grew up with him and is the son of a high-ranking official in Xinyue, so naturally he couldn't be a demon.

Xing Fang and his followers are all children of officials from prominent families, and they are definitely not demons.

Children from merchant families like Tong Yi and Mo Xiaotan must be carefully observed.

Zi Yan, Zi Yan knows everything about the matter, so it is impossible for her to be related to the demon clan.

The one next to Zi Yan? There's no demonic aura on him. I don't know which sect he came from for the trial. I need to pay more attention to him.

Yu Xiaobai? She was Brother Lan's disciple, so she could be ruled out.

Helan Ruofeng? When he entered Yunji Mountain Villa to participate in the election, he had already reached a high level of cultivation. Therefore, he is a big suspect and needs to be paid more attention to.

There are so many remaining disciples of the Yuling Sect and Gu Yunnuo of the Xiaoyao Sect, and they are all people who need to be paid attention to.
