Chapter 33: The Return

For a period of time from the Flame Luo Demon Palace to the Forbidden Forest, the Flame Luo Demon King let the green pothos hold his arm, and every step was so slow, as if he wanted to make up for the time he had missed with his daughter in the past hundred years; With each step, the bond between them deepened a little; With every step, his heart seemed to be younger, and the courage and emotion in his chest were slowly ignited again...... Before they knew it, they had come to the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

For a long time, he set his eyes on his daughter Luluo, she is too similar to the flower girl, gentle and bright eyes, gentle but full of yearning for freedom, just like the delicate and blood-like Manzhu Sahua, blooming wantonly, looking forward to the other side of the morning light day and night.

The Flame Luo Demon King took a deep breath and said, he took off the golden scale mask on his face and handed it to the green pothos: "It's time to separate!" Know why I'm wearing this mask all day? ”

Pothos took the mask and shook her head silently.

"Before I arrived at Huangquan, this world was originally ruled by black and white evil, and it was said that they came from another dimension through a black hole. It was not easy to make them, who had extraordinary powers, submit to me, a latecomer, and I hid my joys, sorrows, and sorrows behind this mask, and deceived them, and deceived myself. But now I have to leave you with a mask, you are too simple and kind to make the black and white evil surrender, wearing this mask can not only make them unable to see your original expression, but also remind them of my existence! Remember, no matter how empty the Yellow Springs World is, don't lose your heart, to this day, I can still find my heart, although it is late, but it is also worth celebrating. The Demon King of Yanluo said to his daughter earnestly.

Tears welled up in the already moist eyes of the green pothos, she grabbed her father's arms tightly, and prayed from the bottom of her heart that he would not leave, but she couldn't say a word, only felt that her chest was blocked by something, and she realized that even if she could speak, she would be speechless because of sadness.

"I'm such an irresponsible father who locked you up in the tower for so many years, and now I'm going to leave you here alone, I'm sorry, my daughter!"

The voice of the Demon King of Yanluo also became choked, and he once again hugged the green pothos into his arms, patted her back vigorously, and then said to himself: "It's time to go, it's time to go." ”

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and without looking back, he walked towards the forbidden forest, and finally disappeared into the gray mist in the distance.

Hyacinth had been accompanying the three boys to the huge torii they had passed as they had come, and he knew that this would most likely be the last time he would guide them. Crossing this door is another world, and his fate with them will come to an end, although this journey is short, but it is more precious, even though he has a thousand kinds of reluctance in his heart, but there is no feast in the world, he also understands this truth.

"Well, let's say goodbye!" He tried to make his tone sound calm and relieved, "Go through here, and you'll find the tunnel you came from." Walking out of the tunnel of the afterlife, you will see your true body in the bubbles at the end! Hehe, don't be frightened by the scene in front of you, because it is not your true body that walks freely in this Yellow Springs country, and when you get the spirit card, your true body will also reappear at the bottom of the lake. The spirit card in your hand is also the key to open the bubble and make your own spirit and body one, the way back is the same as when you came, keep going, don't look back, return to your world! ”

Chiki grabbed Hyacinth's hand, then hugged his shoulder hard, and asked, "Can I see you again?" ”

Ouyang Xiaoleng bowed his head to him gently, in addition to thanking Hyacinth, he also had a kind of respect from the heart.

"Thank you, and please thank the Pothos and the Demon King of Flame Luo again for us! It's hard to see each other again, but we won't forget you! Even in this Yellow Springs country, you and Pothos will have lovers and eventually become married! Xia Qiu smiled and said goodbye to Hyacinth, giving him and Pothos full blessings for the future.

Hyacinth looked at the human girl in front of him with some emotion, every word in her short sentence was worth cherishing carefully. Indeed, no matter how nihilistic this world is, as long as there is Pothos by his side, he doesn't want to go anywhere, he wants to slowly tell Pothos everything in the outside world, draw to Pothos, and never let her be alone again. Thinking of this, his heart was full of courage and hope, so he also smiled rarely, and he waved vigorously at them, and watched them pass through the torii for a long time, gradually moving away......

The three teenagers passed through the tunnel of the afterlife again, and once again the transcendent spell sounded in their ears, but it was a reverse. At the end of the tunnel, they saw their real body lying in a huge bubble, and it was really unaccustomed to seeing themselves as if they were sleeping quietly. According to what Hyacinth said, Ouyang Xiaoleng took out his spirit card from his pocket and put it close to the bubble, and sure enough, the moment the spirit card and the bubble came into contact, silver light overflowed from the bubble and surrounded him, and inhaled him into the bubble and merged with the sleeping real body inside.

Xia Qiu also put her spirit card close to the bubble, and when she was inhaled by the bubble, she felt as if she was back in the mother's body, her body was soaked in the flowing warm liquid, and in addition to the sound of water, there was also the sound of the mother's outside world summoning. In the midst of the warmth, she couldn't help but stretch her body, and when she slowly opened her eyes, she found that she was still wrapped in bubbles. Nearby, there were two pairs of eyes looking at her with concern, it was Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi, they had already woken up one step earlier.

They helped her to her feet, and then the three of them walked to the shore, and when they had reached thirty paces, the dim bottom of the lake began to shine, and after another twenty steps, they were back to the shore.

In the Yellow Springs Country, the concept of time seemed to be blurred, and they felt as if they had been there for a long time, but it was still daytime outside. To their surprise, Dong Muya was still standing on the shore of the lake looking in their direction, standing in the same position and maintaining the same posture as before they entered the bottom of the lake.

She grew her mouth with an expression of disbelief and ecstasy, and then she couldn't help but exclaim, "You guys, didn't you just go to the bottom of the lake?" ”

Only Ouyang Xiaoleng could still calmly ask her, "How long has it been since we disappeared from your eyes and entered the bottom of the lake?" ”

"In just three or five minutes, I was just about to leave, and I didn't expect you to come back. There is such a legend about the country of Yellow Springs, saying that the law of time is deranged there, but I didn't expect it to be true! Now that you're the only ones who can make it back from there, no one but me has any more real information about it! Dong Muya did not leave the bank in three sentences, and her excitement was overflowing, firstly, for their safety and soundness, and secondly, for her to get such a valuable piece of information.

For a few teenagers, this is undoubtedly great news, the time they fought in the Yellow Springs Realm was only a blink of an eye in this world, but obtaining the Earth Talisman was equivalent to half the success of saving the precarious Demon Realm.

On the other hand, although time has not passed here, the fatigue of the three of them from within is real. Especially for Xia Qiu, who had just signed a blood alliance with Ouyang Xiaoleng and experienced the catastrophe of being taken captive by the Rakshasa Mother, she suddenly returned to the warm and bright Yongchuan from the cold and gray world, and was shone on her face by the autumn noon sun, the light and scorching heat made her feel dizzy for a while, and she fainted forward as soon as her feet were soft.

Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi found it at about the same moment, and stepped forward to support her together.

Qianqi preemptively asked, "You don't matter, right?" ”

"Well, it's okay, it's just that I feel like I haven't seen the sun for a long time, and I'm really not used to seeing it again all of a sudden."

Xia Qiu knew that the most crucial thing now was to return to the demon world from the maze of Ouyang Ancient Mansion as soon as possible, and she was afraid that she would drag everyone down because of her temporary weakness.

Ouyang Xiaoleng said to her almost in a commanding tone: "Since the earth talisman has been obtained, you can stay in Ouyang Ancient Mansion today and rest in peace, and I and Qianqi will return to the demon realm first." ”

I don't know why, Xia Qiu at this moment doesn't want to be separated from him from the bottom of her heart, she clearly knows what he will face when she returns to the Demon Realm, will Elder Cheng and the other royal clans of the Demon Realm continue to embarrass him? Ouyang Hongye and Mochizuki, did their trip to find the Heavenly Talisman go well? Especially after seeing the deep affection between Pothos and Hyacinth, she felt that at such a critical moment, it would be a torment if she couldn't be by his side.

She shook her head and looked at Ouyang Xiaoleng with earnest eyes: "It's really okay for me, let's go back together, together!" ”

Qianqi showed his bright smile again and said, "If you really want to go back, I will carry you back." ”

He didn't ask for her permission, but squatted down and grabbed her legs with his backhand, and carried her firmly on his back, and cried out very happily, "Go! Hey, we'll see you over there later! ”

Originally, Ouyang Xiaoleng still wanted to arrange for Xia Qiu to return to Ouyang Ancient Mansion to rest. Unexpectedly, Qianqi carried her on his own initiative and didn't give him time to react at all.

Seeing this wonderful relationship between the three of them, Dong Muya on the side shook her head with a smile, she could best understand the thoughts of these young boys and girls, because she didn't come from their age. Before separating from the teenagers, she talked about the very important information: "While helping you find information about the Earth Rune, I also collected an important clue about the Sky Rune. ”

Ouyang Xiaoleng was in a hurry to leave, and when he heard her words, he stood still and asked, "What is it?" ”

"It is written in a record that there is a mural in the private garden of the city lord in the Nanzhejiang Palace, which hints at where the heavenly runes were left in the demon world."

"Do they know about Momiji?" Ouyang Xiaoleng then asked, once again admiring Dong Muya's ability to manage and collect information.

"Don't worry! I sent the thorns to them early in the morning. ”

"Good! When we return to the royal castle today, we will hand over the talisman to Yong-sama for safekeeping, and we will take a short rest and set off tomorrow to support Momiji and Mochizuki. ”

"Well, if there's anything I need to do, just let Thorns inform me at any time." Dong Muya nodded, knowing that she didn't want to keep them for a while, it seemed that they couldn't hold it anymore.

"Got it!" Ouyang Xiaoleng responded.

Without waiting for Xia Qiu to say goodbye to Dong Muya, Qianqi ran away, and then swooped into the air.

"Let me go!" Xia Qiu begged.

Although he is already familiar with Qianqi, he is a boy after all, and Xia Qiu is a little uncomfortable to be carried by him like this. But he ignored her at all, and flew higher and higher on his own.

Ouyang Xiaoleng mobilized his whole body demonic power and chased after them, his heart was furious, but his face showed disdain: "Compare one by one, let's see who arrives at the Xuanlang of the Two Lives first!" ”

Qianqi heard the spirit: "Compare and compare!" ”

They competed with each other, flying higher and higher, leaving behind the fatigue of the battle they had just fought against the Yellow Springs Realm. A gust of wind whistled past Xia Qiu's ears, making her have to hug some Qianqi's neck slightly. The whole picture of Yongchuan slowly came into her eyes, this small city surrounded by mostly greenery, and she couldn't remember how long she had not wanted to appreciate its tranquility and beauty. She vaguely found her home and school, and couldn't help but take a few more looks.

With Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi, she didn't feel afraid even if she was high from the ground, the sunlight became more and more dazzling, so that she had to close her eyes and fall asleep unconsciously.
