The words of parting have been deliberated for a long time and I don't know how to say it.

Long seemed to regard him as a companion, and took good care of him. He even cleared out a large area and placed a soft bed.

After finishing all this, he squatted on the ground and stared at him with those golden eyes without saying a word.

Although he didn't speak, Ji Xingyun roughly understood what he meant.

It should be to know whether he likes it or not, whether he is satisfied or not.

"It's nice, I like it, but I can't..."

The words that had been prepared were swallowed involuntarily.

For some reason, he actually felt an inexplicable sense of guilt. The guilt was tightly wrapped around his heart like a silk thread, and when he saw the pure eyes of the other party, it reached an unattainable peak.

It's like cheating the feelings of some innocent little animal.

After getting the treasure that he had been thinking about, he wanted to leave without hesitation.

Isn't this the proper behavior of a scumbag?

But no matter what, he will eventually go.

Distressed emotions flashed in his eyes, and Ji Xingyun said with some embarrassment: "I still have things to do, and I won't stay here for too long."

Afraid that the man would not understand, Ji Xingyun could only use a more definite statement.

"That is, I will leave."

"leave?"

The man didn't react immediately, and repeated it softly, and then his pupils trembled for a moment, revealing some fragile light.

In his world, he never seemed to think that the princess would leave.

In the stories he had heard since he was a child, the dragon and the princess did experience many setbacks and tribulations before they communicated with each other.

But as long as he defeats the vicious knight, he will live a happy life with the beautiful princess.

In this one, there is no ending where the princess will leave.

The tightly pursed lips trembled, he wanted to be uncertain.

But he didn't want to talk to the princess in such a forceful tone, and he didn't want to expose his bad side in front of the other party.

In the end, he could only ask with some grievances: "Where are you going?"

"Can I go with you?"

【Can't. 】

The system said: [When we go to the demon world, the most important thing is to hide our identity, try to go quietly, come back secretly, don't disturb any demons, and leave immediately after getting the horn. 】

[But Long's characteristics are too obvious, and the demons can see through his identity at a glance. With such a conspicuous target who can arouse their hatred, the task is even more impossible to complete. 】

Ji Xingyun understands the truth, but facing such a longing face that is afraid of being abandoned, coupled with cautious eyes...

He couldn't say no to it.

After reading the message he wanted from the girl's silence, the man's expression darkened: "Can't you?"

"…Feel sorry."

The atmosphere gradually became dull and oppressive, and the slightly drawn eyelashes covered the obscure light in the bottom of the eyes.

There was a faint light on the chest, and the man stretched out his hand and tore off a black and colorful scale.

His complexion was weakly pale, and he put the scales in the girl's plain palm.

"this is for you."

"This is, my scale. It can, protect, your safety."

The scale with flowing metallic luster seemed to be alive, the tentacles were smooth, and it carried a warm breath.

Ji Xingyun unconsciously tightened his palms, as if afraid of cutting him, the sharp edges instantly became blunt.

The scale gradually shrank in his hands, and then merged into the depths of the skin, turning into a small mole.

"I'll wait for you to come back."

***

[Congratulations to the host for successfully conquering the fourth mission target and getting a reward of [-] points. 】

Ji Xingyun was a little surprised by the sudden reward announcement.

He thought about it, and remembered that he had indeed accepted such a side mission before, but shouldn't it be time-limited?

[Is this side mission not over yet? 】

The system is ambiguous: [Well... it's not over, and there may be other targets to be captured later. 】

He always felt that the system seemed to be hiding something from him, but even if he kept asking, he still couldn't get the answer he wanted, and only heard it was full of perfunctory excuses.

It's not the first time I feel familiar with these people, but whenever this kind of emotion just emerges, it will be inexplicably snuffed out, or disappear very abruptly.

Just like now, he just casually thought about it at a slightly deeper level, and before he felt strange, he forgot why he stopped and stood here.

I can't remember what I was thinking just now, and my brain is completely blank.

Ji Xingyun had already walked a certain distance, but he couldn't help but stop and glance back.

The entrance of the huge cave was mostly covered by lush trees, but a tall figure could still be vaguely seen standing there.

Like a silent statue.

Silent, quiet, motionless.

Exuding a hint of gloom and sadness, she stared at him silently.

Ji Xingyun suddenly felt that someone's figure was tightly covered with him, making his chest feel like a stone was pressed down, and he was so stuffy that he could hardly breathe.

[It's here, the weak edge of the enchantment is ahead! 】

The words raised by the system interrupted Ji Xingyun's thoughts.

[Before that, we still need to do some basic camouflage. 】

About camouflage...

Ji Xingyun held the sharp horns on his head with his hands, for fear that they would accidentally fall off.

He was wearing a pitch-black short skirt, which was a bit short, barely covering the middle of his thighs. A pair of white and slender legs were completely exposed, and there were metal leg rings of the same color on his ankles, which made his ankles look very white and delicate, as if frozen After the milk.

He tugged the hem of the skirt down to his knees.

The cool wind blew by, and he shivered.

The long, fluffy tail behind it slowly turned around, then froze for an instant, and drooped limply.

The tail and horns are too realistic, as if they are really growing on their own body, and they can also move at the same time according to the change of mood...

Ji Xingyun reasonably doubts that the system that can provide such a set of clothing may have some side business behind his back.

The world of demons is very different from the world of humans.

Their skies were a bloody brown, like the crimson of the sky when the sun goes down, but far more oppressive and dull than that.

There is no sun, no moon, and no distinction between day and night.

Or, they don't make such a distinction.

The landing place this time is much luckier than last time.

He appeared out of thin air at the corner at the end of the street, surrounded by people of all kinds in different clothes.

They all have a common symbol, that is, a pair of horns of different colors, lengths, and shapes grow on the top of their heads.

Ji Xingyun's appearance did not attract too many people's attention.

Because demons always do what they want, appearing suddenly and disappearing suddenly, it is nothing to be surprised about.

However, this demon seems a little too beautiful.

The snow-white and small face, the clear and shining eyes, the expression of ignorance of the world, the eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, revealing a little panic.

Compared with all the tall demons, his body is too slender and petite, like a rabbit that fell among wolves. No demon should have lost his hostility and evil thoughts, but exudes a harmless aura.

No matter from which angle you look at it, he doesn't look like a qualified demon.

More like an angel strayed into hell.

All kinds of eyes of unknown meaning focused on the girl, but they only paused for a moment, and their expressions became pale and frightened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

They found the Lord's mark on the girl.

Just looking at it, there was an unbearable pain in both eyes.

High-level demons have an unimaginable deterrent effect on low-level demons. It is just a mark that has faded due to the passage of time, making those with ulterior motives flee in fear.

The people around quickly fled from him like scattered birds.

Ji Xingyun thought that some accident or disaster had happened, so he ran after him.

For some reason, the person in front ran even faster, as if he was some kind of scourge.

In the end, it turned directly into a bat, its wings fanned out afterimages, and it flew away in a panic.

A doubtful question mark slowly floated above Ji Xingyun's head.

The surrounding area was calm and nothing happened.

These people... are not afraid of themselves, are they?

Could it be that what kind of powerful demon he was disguised as?

This question is destined to be unanswered, because as long as the demons who have met him face to face, they will run away in a hurry in the end.

But it's a good thing that there is no one else around, at least you don't have to worry about the risk of your disguise being exposed.

Ji Xingyun couldn't help but touch the horns on the top of his head. At first, there was only a little warmth on the horns, but now for some reason, a nerve has established a connection. Just a light touch made his whole body freeze. .

Very... strange feeling.

I don't know if his horn can be used as a quest item.

Hearing his inner voice, the system snorted softly: [Don't even think about it, you are not a real devil. 】

[The approximate location of the Devil's Horn has been marked on the map for you, we will strive for a quick solution. 】

Ji Xingyun only took one look, and couldn't help but frowned.

Almost the entire map was marked in red, with countless red dots, and every horned demon around seemed to be marked by the system.

But what's the use of it?

He can't run on other people's heads and pull off their horns, can he?

Not to mention whether he has such great strength, the devil can't let him pull it out indifferently.

But the next question is not to consider whether to pull it out, but whether to find a demon who is willing to let him approach.

The fine red dots moved rapidly to the distance, and finally the area with Ji Xingyun as the center became a vacuum area within a few hundred meters.

Ji Xingyun was silent: [………]

Why are these demons so afraid of him?After seeing him, everyone ran away without stopping?

It seemed wrong to say that they were afraid, Ji Xingyun recalled their gazes, at first they were obviously sizing up, but also concealed some sticky malice that made him uncomfortable.

But in the next instant, a strange change occurred.

It was as if through him, they saw something that made them fearful.

No matter what the reason for their fear was, with his strength, it was impossible to blatantly obtain horns from living demons, so it was better to do the opposite and look for those red dots that would not move.

If it can't move, it means that there is a great probability that the horn has no owner.
