Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"What is her origin?"

"High Priest?" Sa Hun and Lan Moqiu's eyes met again and they looked at Jin Xuan at the same time.

"Dad, Brother Lan?" Sa Yulong looked at the two of them in confusion.

"Put it away. Zi Yan has indeed passed the test of the magic mirror and has obtained the opportunity to participate in the preliminary selection. The rest of her life will depend on her own fate." Sa Hurricane ordered.

Yu Xiaobai squatted aside and ate the melon quietly. Although Zi Yan had obtained the opportunity to be selected, according to her previous experience of watching dramas, she would definitely face various bad guys who would do various tricks to her on the way.

"Master, it seems that this priest has to stay here with you for the time being." Seeing that His Majesty decided to stay, Lan Moqiu naturally had to follow him to prevent someone from taking advantage of the opportunity to change His Majesty's fortune.

"If the high priest is willing, of course it's possible." Sa Hurricane responded with a smile.

"Disciple will go and arrange accommodation for the high priest." Zhou Ze immediately volunteered to help arrange accommodation.

"Brother Lan, that's great. Now I can see you every day."

When Sa Yulong heard that Lan Moqiu was willing to stay at Yunji Villa, she immediately ran to his side with great joy.

"There is nothing important happening in the court right now, so it's okay for me to stay here temporarily." Lan Moqiu said coldly, with an indifferent expression on his face.

Sa Yulong had gotten used to his expressions and attitudes over the past three years. She thought he was a cold-hearted person and didn't take it seriously.

Anyway, she has a deep affinity with immortality and is extremely talented. As long as she studies hard and achieves immortality soon, she won't have to worry about not having enough time to influence Lan Moqiu's stone heart.

Lan Moqiu was arranged to live in Yunji Villa. His yard was separated from Sa Yulong's yard by only a wall. Living with him was Xiao Yuanzi, the eunuch next to Jin Xuan.

Xiao Yuanzi often saw the high priest in the palace and knew that although he was strict, he had a mild temper and treated people very well. He only hoped that the disciple selection competition would end as soon as possible, His Majesty would be eliminated as soon as possible, and they could return to the palace as soon as possible.

And before that day comes, he just needs to serve the High Priest as his Majesty.

Although Zi Yan won the opportunity to enter the sect, due to her status as a maid she could only live in the same place as before.

But just as Yu Xiaobai guessed, Sa Yulong did not give her a good ending.

As soon as she returned to her yard, Sa Yulong started to punish Zi Yan. She made her stand with her head and three bowls of water in her hands.

Yu Xiaobai hid timidly in the corner of the table, watching the scene coldly. She was worried about Zi Yan and also afraid that this young lady would vent her anger, so she even breathed lighter.

"You are just a human slave, yet you dare to disobey me. So what if you have a deep affinity with the immortal? So what if you have got the opportunity to become an immortal? I will still have the chance to make sure you fail the first level." Sa Yulong looked gloomily at Zi Yan, who was trembling due to standing for a long time.

"Miss, Zi Yan already knows she was wrong, please let her go. I will tell her to withdraw right away." Zi Yun begged Sa Yulong while pleading with Zi Yan.

She had seen how the young lady punished the maid, how she chopped off a young girl's hands without blinking an eye. She didn't want her little sister to suffer the same cruel hand, and even if the young lady didn't punish Zi Yan immediately, she would still make trouble for her on her way through the level.

"Zi Yan, listen to me and give up! Don't go against the eldest lady. Can't we live a peaceful and simple life as maids for the rest of our lives?"

"No, I won't give up!" Zi Yan gritted her teeth. Even though her body was shaking, she still persisted stubbornly.

She knew that this was the opportunity she had always dreamed of and the only chance to change her destiny, and she couldn't give up just like that.

Seeing this, Sa Yulong's face became even gloomier.

"Zi Yan, don't refuse my toast and then drink the wine for punishment. If you quit obediently, I can let you go because you have served me for so many years." Sa Yulong said in a magnanimous tone.

"Zi Yan thanks the young lady for saving her life, but cultivating immortality is my dream and I will never give up!" Zi Yan straightened her body and said word by word to Sa Yulong with a firm gaze.

Sa Yulong had a hot temper, but she was good at disguising it. At this moment, she had already lost her patience, and in a rage, she picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at Zi Yan.

The teacup hit Zi Yan's forehead, and blood immediately flowed out. The bowl in her hand and on her head fell to the ground at this time, and the bowl broke when it hit the ground, making a sound.

Zi Yan clenched her teeth, endured the pain, and looked at Sa Yulong with a firm expression.

Ziyun knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Sa Yulong, begging her to let Zi Yan go, and cried and asked Zi Yan to give up quickly.

"Okay, you are quite tough! In that case, don't blame me for being cruel." Sa Yulong said viciously, looking around for something, but her glance caught Yu Xiaobai squatting under the table.

"You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me, I am the invisible Superman, you can't see me..." Yu Xiaobai silently recited the spell she thought was most useful, her eyes dodging.

Sa Yulong raised an evil smile, then stood up and took out a small box from the drawer of his bed. He opened the box and found a glass bell inside, which was flashing a faint green light.

"You want to become an immortal? Really? I'll make it so that you can't even be a human being." After saying this, Sa Yulong began to chant a spell.

After she finished reciting the spell decisively, she took out half of Zi Yan's soul from her body. After that thing left her body, Zi Yan became dazed and motionless.

Sa Yulong came to Yu Xiaobai fiercely, holding the bell.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaobai knew that something bad must be going on, and hurriedly stepped back to try to escape. However, Sa Yulong waved her hand and the door was shut heavily, and the bolt was fastened.

Yu Xiaobai tried her best to jump high to open the door and escape, but unfortunately she was just a dog and her claws had never been practiced before.

Why did she choose to be lazy and not practice? It would be more painful than losing her life.

"Don't get excited, you beast! I'll give you a chance to be a human being." Sa Yulong's evil smile slowly solidified.

She used the same method to extract a wisp of soul from Yu Xiaobai, and Yu Xiaobai, who was struggling, immediately became stupid.

Sa Yulong began to cast the spell with great concentration. Ziyun didn't understand what she was doing, but she heard the words "give Yu Xiaobai a chance to be a human being".

She was just a weak maid and could do nothing. She could only swallow her anger and cry quietly while holding the demented Zi Yan.

After a moment, the spell was completed, and Sa Yulong showed a look of pride and satisfaction.

Yu Xiaobai only felt herself dazed for a moment. When she opened her eyes again, she felt a sharp pain in her forehead. Ziyun was holding her and crying.

"Hey!" Yu Xiaobai thought back to Sa Yulong's words, giving her a chance to be a human? Did he mean to put her soul into Zi Yan's body? Where did Zi Yan go?

At this moment, she saw a snow-white puppy kowtowing to Sa Yulong and begging for mercy. It looked both cute and funny.

Yu Xiaobai thought, could it be that Zi Yan's soul is now in Xue'er's body? Although I really want to be a human, I don't want to use this method to rob someone else's body.

But what can she do? She is just an ordinary human girl, how can she fight against a witch who can cast spells?

"Hehehe... Do you still want to cultivate immortality? You have no chance to quit now. Just let this round-haired beast do it for you and see if you can pass it." After Sa Yulong finished speaking, he stretched out his hand again, stroked a teacup, and then threw it hard at Xue'er.

This time, Xue'er was not as lucky as before to dodge. The teacup hit her hard, making a crisp sound.

Xue'er cried out in pain, her voice filled with pain and fear.

Seeing Xue'er being hit, Yu Xiaobai felt distressed. But at this time, Yu Xiaobai was already frightened by what had just happened, and could only watch it all happen.

Her heart was filled with anger and helplessness. She felt extremely disgusted and hated Sa Yulong's behavior, but she couldn't do anything about it.

Sa Yulong looked at her masterpiece with pride, as if admiring their helpless expressions in the face of pain and torture.

Xue'er curled up on the ground, shivering, with helplessness and panic in her eyes.

In the courtyard across the wall, Lan Moqiu was lying on a chair with his eyes closed. The first time the cup fell to the ground, he frowned unhappily but did not open his eyes.

He was recalling the unforgettable memory of his first coming into the world, the red color that suddenly broke into his life. It made his heart beat with meaning, and made him feel that love was a beautiful beginning that he was willing to accept.

"Minnuo..." He opened his eyes slightly irritably when the second sound of the cup falling to the ground was heard.

He rubbed his brows helplessly. He had stayed here thinking that he could take Jin Xuan back to Xinyue Imperial City after he failed. But he didn't expect that Yunji Villa, which was so big, would be so noisy even if he chose a courtyard for it.

The person living next door is none other than the young lady. He knew that Sa Yulong had harmed his maid in his mansion.

He gave the maid a sum of money as compensation, and also found the abbot of the Nuya Temple, who was highly accomplished in repair techniques, to use lotus root to reattach her severed hand.

As for Sa Yulong, considering that Yunji Villa had been loyal to Xinyue for hundreds of years and Sa Hun was an upright person, he only reprimanded her with a few words and did not investigate further.

Thinking that Sa Yulong could be so arrogant in the priest's house, what would happen in her own territory? Before he had time to think deeply, a sharp dog barking sound came from next door.

"Xue'er?"

Lan Moqiu instantly thought of the dog with snow-white hair, and he couldn't help but stand up and climbed over the wall to Sa Yulong's yard.

"Brother Lan?" Sa Yulong panicked when she saw Lan Moqiu suddenly arrive, but then she pretended to be calm and didn't look at Xue'er who was rolling on the ground and crying miserably.

"Master Priest..." When Ziyun saw Lan Moqiu, he immediately lowered his head and knelt down in panic, while at the same time pulling Zi Yan beside him together.

At this moment, half of Zi Yan's soul had been replaced by Yu Xiaobai. She had been with Lan Moqiu for quite a while and knew his temper, so she was naturally not afraid of him.

"What happened?"

Lan Moqiu glanced at the people in the yard and his eyes fell on Xue'er.

Xue'er had long, thick hair, and was hit by two cups thrown by Sa Yulong in succession. She had two bumps on her head, but she still couldn't see it from the outside.

Xue'er at this time was no longer the same Xue'er. When she saw Lan Moqiu hesitating timidly, she looked at Sa Yulong with fear.

When Lan Moqiu saw the broken pieces of the teacup beside Xue'er, a layer of coldness appeared in his eyes.

"This priest knows that Miss Sa doesn't like Xue'er. In this case, just give it to this priest." After saying that, he walked to Xue'er, bent over, picked her up, and flew directly to the wall.

"Also, Miss Sa has already learned a lot. This priest has limited abilities, so there is nothing I can teach Miss Sa."

After he said that, he flew down the wall and with a wave of his hand, he set up a barrier around his wall. In this way, if there was any sound from his side, Sa Yulong would not be able to hear the slightest movement.

"..."Sa Yulong was speechless for a moment.

She didn't expect Lan Moqiu to treat her like this. During the three years in the Priest's Mansion, she often hung around him under various excuses. He didn't teach her many magic skills, just some simple and amusing ones.

He also deliberately avoided her deliberate intimate actions, and sometimes he didn't see her for several months.

She always thought that one day she would become an immortal, and with her father's protection, she would be able to enter his heart over time.

It can be seen from Lan Moqiu's words today that her position in his mind is not as important as that round-haired beast.

"He actually knew all along that I don't like that beast. It seems that the High Priest has been really wronged in the past three years." Sa Yulong muttered to herself, staring at the distance with an angry tone.

With a "click", Xiaobai, who had a head injury and no bleeding, fainted.

Before he fainted, he cried in his heart. She was just a child, why did he treat her like this?

In the first sixteen years of her life, even her parents were reluctant to point a finger at her.

Now she has become a character that everyone can bully. How many immoral things did she do in her previous life?

"Zi Yan, Zi Yan, wake up... Miss... Zi Yan... please let Gu Zi Yan go..." Zi Yun kowtowed and begged timidly.

"You don't need to serve these Japanese girls. You are responsible for taking good care of them. They have to participate in the entrance selection. If anything happens to them, I will not let you off easily."

Sa Yulong changed his previous gloomy expression and gave the explanation with a strange look on his face.

After saying that, she turned and walked out.

"Zi Yan, it's okay. The young lady has let you go. I'll take you back to the house to apply medicine." Zi Yun dragged the heavy Zi Yan back to her room.

Here at Lan Moqiu's place, Xue'er, who possessed half of Zi Yan's spirit, was still squatting beside him with a timid look in her eyes, not as lively as before.

"Master Priest, has Xue'er always been so aloof? I saw it rolling around in the snow before, it was quite lively." Xiao Yuanzi squatted on the ground and stared at Xue'er blankly.

"Go get it some delicious food to feed it." Lan Moqiu ordered.

He was just about to reach out to touch Xueer's head, but saw her timidly avoiding him again.

"You beast, you don't recognize me after just one day of not seeing me?" Lan Moqiu said with some annoyance.

"It's all my fault. I've already told that woman today that you should just follow me from now on. I will never let you suffer any injustice again."

A long time ago, he and Minnuo also had a snow-white dog, also named Xueer. Minnuo always liked to carry it wherever he went, and as time went by, he also liked to carry it wherever he went.

Later, some things happened and Minnuo was gone, and only Xueer was with him all the time.

He disliked Sa Yulong the first time she went to the Priest's House. This dislike was innate.

But when he saw the little snow-white fur creature in her arms, he suddenly didn't hate her so much anymore.

In this way, he reluctantly accepted Sa Hun's request and allowed Sa Yulong to live in the priest's house as he wished.
