Chapter 24: A New Heartbeat (Sort of a Promise)

The strong sunlight shone into the house, and the noisy sound of pedestrians came and went in the bustling street, waking up Duguxue, who was closing his eyes and cultivating. Just last night, the bottleneck in the middle stage of Duguxue's body began to loosen, and with this, Duguxue broke through to the late stage of out-of-body in one fell swoop. Feeling the more powerful spiritual power fluctuations in his body, and looking at his powerful palm, Dugu Blood stood up with satisfaction. When I came to the window, it was already three poles past three poles at this time, and at ten o'clock at noon, under the high mountain at the end of the stream last night, on the water of the sleepless lake with a bright moon, what happened was still vivid......

Knock knock knock...... Dugu Blood came to the door of Tianzhao's house and knocked on the door. After a burst of hurried footsteps, Tianzhao called the door, smiled at Dugu Xue, and then was about to pounce on Dugu Xue's bad run. Dugu leaned and dodged Tianzhao, who rushed towards him. Tianzhao fell into the air, his eyes widened so that the boss stared at Duguxue in a daze, and his face was full of doubts except for resentment.

Duguxue shook the tray in his hand in front of Tianzhao's eyes, then pursed his lips and said, "Let's eat first......" After speaking, Duguxue walked straight into Tianzhao's room, Tianzhao had to gently close the door, and then obediently walked to the table and sat down. In Tianzhao's memory, in that pavilion last night, Tianzhao fell asleep later, and then I don't remember, it should be Duguxue who carried himself back, thinking of this, Tianzhao's cheeks felt a burst of heat, and in the big eyes looking at Duguxue, there was also a different charm.

Duguxue took out the food in his hand one by one from the tray and put it on the table, and then put a bowl of rice in front of Tianzhao, and ate it himself, Tianzhao also picked up the chopsticks and began to eat, at this moment Tianzhao really felt a little hungry.

"You go with me to see my father, he loves me the most, he will definitely be able to take back that order and spare your ......" Halfway through the meal, Tianzhao suddenly raised his head and said to Duguxue.

Dugu Blood looked at Tian Zhao, only to see that Tian Zhao was looking at himself in a daze, and after swallowing the food in his mouth, Dugu Blood's blood-red eyes turned around and explained to Tian Zhao: "I have seen your father, just above the Demon Tower." After saying that, Duguxue then took a bite of rice.

Hearing Duguxue say that he had seen his father, and he was still on the magic tower, Tianzhao suddenly hung a question mark in his mind, looked at Duguxue with a frown, and then asked weakly, "Did he say anything?"

"He asked me to come to this Demon Suppression City, and said that he wanted me to take you with you, afraid that you would go back to annoy him, and then go to the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave together......" Duguxue then explained to Tianzhao.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Tianzhao suddenly asked Duguxue with a resentment.

Dugu Blood was stunned for a moment, then looked at Amaterasu innocently and said, "You didn't ask either......"

Hearing Duguxue's answer, Tianzhao was speechless for a while. If he had known that he had come to this demon city on the orders of his father, Tianzhao would not have been so worried, and this alone would have shown that my father actually had no intention of killing him.

"Since my father asked you to come to the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave, then why did he let the Twelve Demon Sons hunt you down?" Tianzhao had already forgotten the hot meal on the table at this moment, and said to himself with a frown.

"Then where do I know......" Duguxue took out a wine glass, poured a glass of wine in the wine jug, and after taking a sip, he felt the heat coming from his throat, and then continued: "Then you have to ask your father......"

"You can go back to the Demon Hall with me to see him......" Tianzhao suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Dugu Blood and said.

Dugu Blood raised his head and glanced at Tianzhong, then shook his head. After that, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, which was strong, but it was satisfying Duguxue. After taking a sip of wine, Duguxue suddenly changed his face, then looked at Tianzhao and said to Tianzhao: "Last night......"

Amaterasu looked at Dugu Blood in a daze, thinking of last night, Tianzhao was still a little shy, she was so big Except for her father Demon Lord, it was the first time she fell asleep in the arms of a strange man. Before he knew it, two blush flowers climbed up Tianzhao's cheeks.

"What happened last night, I was reckless, you should have never happened......" Duguxue's voice was very small, but it was like a thunderbolt in Tianzhao's ears.

After listening to Dugu Xue's words, Tianzhao's eyes were full of incredulity, his eyes turned red again, and his face instantly turned white, so he was stunned, looking at the man in front of him in a daze. The atmosphere in the room froze instantly, the two were silent for a long time, and Dugu Xue raised his head to look at Tianzhao this time. When he saw Tianzhao who was already in tears in front of him, Duguxue suddenly looked embarrassed, quickly stood up and walked in front of Tianzhao, half-knelt on the ground, and then lowered his head to death, and said apologetically to Tianzhao: "Thank you Miss for loving me too much, I have no heart, my life is cheap, I don't deserve Miss to pay so much......"

"Why ......," Tianzhao asked in a trembling voice as he looked at the black-clothed man who was half-kneeling on the ground with his head bowed.

Although Duguxue had already prepared his words, when Tianzhao asked, Duguxue was still a little speechless, and after a while, Duguxue suddenly raised his head and explained to Tianzhao: "The next life is clear, there are some things, there are no ...... in the next life" After finishing speaking, he lowered his head again.

"Don't you don't believe in fate?" suddenly Tianzhao's voice sounded in Dugu Xue's ears again and asked.

"I ......" Duguxue's body trembled, not knowing how to answer. Yes, Duguxue doesn't believe in fate, but watching the relatives around him leave one by one, Duguxue doesn't want it, Duguxue is afraid, afraid that Tianzhao will be next, this is a kind of fear from the soul......

Tianzhao wiped the tears on his face, then helped Duguxue on the ground up, and then suddenly asked Duguxue: "Do you still remember the words you made in front of me that day...... "Qianshu."

It was in Bell and Drum City, Tianzhao saved Duguxue, when Duguxue woke up and the two met for the first time, Duguxue had nothing to repay, so he swore an oath, Duguxue thought about it, and then Tianzhao nodded, indicating that he still remembered.

"I'll wait for you......" Tianzhao suddenly said to Duguxue, looking at Duguxue with a firm gaze, Duguxue was just about to reply, but before Duguxue could speak, Tianzhao interrupted Duguxue and continued: "When you end your past one by one, then you can't refuse me anymore......"

Dugu Xue's face was hideous and he suddenly smiled bitterly, and then asked Xiang Tianzhao: "What if I can't finish my life?"

"Then I'll wait until I'm old!" Tianzhao replied directly without even thinking about it.

Looking at Tianzhao, Duguxue didn't know how to explain it, his past grievances involved the entire Eastern Regions forces, Zhongzhou, and thousands of years ago.

"I could die ......"

"I'm ......" Tianzhao began to choke, and then hugged Dugu Blood in front of him. Looking at the person who kept trembling and sobbing in his arms, suddenly Duguxue seemed to feel his heartbeat, plopping... Thump...... Very weak, but with infinite strength, Dugu Blood felt a warm current crashing around in his body, as if he wanted to break through the layers of prohibitions that hindered it.

"I... I can be widowed......" Tianzhao slowly relaxed while holding Duguxue's arm, and then said softly in Duguxue's ear.

Duguxue slowly pushed Tianzhao's body away, and then under Tianzhao's tearful gaze, he slowly raised his arm and slowly stretched out his hand to Tianzhao's cheek......

After a while, Dugu Blood clenched his hand into a fist, withdrew it and put it down, took a deep breath and spit it out heavily. After that, Duguxue looked at Tianzhao and smiled slightly, and then gently comforted: "Don't cry, no one wants it if you cry...... Tell me about the Demon Suppression Cave Mansion......"

Looking at Dugu Blood, who was in a dilemma and withdrew his outstretched hand, Tianzhao knew in his heart that in the heart of this mallet, he still had his own. Looking at the clumsy Dugu blood, Tian Zhao burst into tears and smiled, with a delicate face, as if blooming in the rain, and then looked up at Dugu Blood and said: "You can't forget the promise you said, you said that you will protect me for generations, in order to repay me for saving you, a manly man, it is difficult to chase after a word!"

"Promise?" Duguxue was stunned, looking at Tianzhao in front of him, who turned crying into laughter, muttered, thinking that he remembered something.

"Doesn't it count?" Tianzhao's face suddenly changed, and he looked at Duguxue with a pair of resentful eyes, and he was about to cry out again......

"Count... Count ......" Dugu Blood quickly changed his words when he saw the changes on Tianzhao's face, and said in agreement: "Sort it out......"

Dugu Blood looked at Tianzhao, Tianzhao looked at Dugu Blood, the two looked at each other like this for a long time, and I don't know when the food on the table was already cold......

"Only the high-level officials of the Demon Hall know about the Demon Cave Mansion, and I also ......heard my father mention it by accident," Tianzhao took the lead in breaking the embarrassing atmosphere after stabilizing his emotions, and explained to Duguxue.

Dugu Xue saw that Tianzhao actually knew, he must have been interested, stared at Tianzhao with a pair of red eyes, and hurriedly asked: "Do you know the origin of this cave?" Seeing Dugu Xue looking at himself deadly, Tianzhao couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and his eyes were a little evasive.

"Do you think that I have some ......" Tianzhao asked weakly while dodging Duguxue's gaze. But before the words were finished, Duguxue's answer sounded in the room: "No!"

Tian Zhao looked at Dugu Xue, and saw that Dugu Blood was still staring at him, so Tian Zhao went on to explain to Dugu Xue: "The Demon Ancient Cave, according to legend, is the place where the demon died in ancient times. ”

"Where the devil died?" Dugu Blood looked at Tianzhao suspiciously, as if he was puzzled.

Tianzhao then explained: "It is rumored that a demon in ancient times, for the sake of the continent, was later killed by countless ancestors here, and then this city was called the Demon Suppression City, and the place where the demon died turned into a cave, which is now the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave. After Tianzhao finished speaking, he looked at Duguxue again, only to see that Duguxue fell into deep thought, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time......

Dugu Blood has always had a question in his heart, Demon, is there really a demon in the world? What does a demon look like? Like a human being, is it still ......
