Chapter 186 Return to the Demon Clan?
Unexpectedly, just after walking a short distance, he saw Sang Yunqi and Chu Xinglan coming back together. Xu Zhuo subconsciously wanted to hide, but was stopped by Sang Yunqi.
"What are you doing in the back hills? Do you have something to talk to me about?"
As he spoke, he jumped off the flying boat with Chu Xinglan and stood in front of Xu Zhuo.
Xu Zhuo glanced at the dragon-shaped lamp in Chu Xinglan's hand, and then saw the dog mask in his ancestor's hand.
So, we are busy here, scared to death, but you two are out playing leisurely?
But he still said respectfully: "It's nothing serious. The ancestor left early. I came to see if there is anything urgent so that I can help."
Sang Yunqi glanced at him casually, not paying attention to his words, took out the bamboo slips that Fan Lou gave him from the space and handed it to him.
"Here is a list of people who have had contact with the demons. Let's find someone to check and deal with it."
Xu Zhuo didn't care about it at first, but when he heard that it was a list of spies, his eyes lit up instantly and he couldn't wait to open it and take a look.
But the more he looked at it, the more solemn his expression became. After roughly browsing through it, he rolled up the bamboo slips again and held them in his hands.
"I will definitely deal with this matter seriously, old ancestor. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now."
Sang Yunqi nodded lightly and took Chu Xinglan directly into the back mountain.
After watching the two leave, Xu Zhuo looked at the bamboo slips in his hand again and quickly hurried towards his yard.
Sang Yunqi and Chu Xinglan walked towards the courtyard, talking and laughing. Before they entered the gate, they heard a sarcastic voice coming from behind.
"Oh, you two are having a good time together, right? This dragon-shaped lantern looks great."
When I looked up, I saw Xuan Ling sitting on a thick branch of the tree in the yard with his arms folded, one leg raised and the other leg dangling in the air.
When Xuan Ling saw Sang Yunqi looking at him, he jumped up and jumped directly in front of the two of them, circling around them with a click of the tongue.
"You bastard, you are so rude. You called me to fight and then left me here alone?"
Sang Yunqi sneered and looked at him with disdain.
"Don't you have hands? Do you want me to feed you the food you prepared?"
"You still think you're right?"
Chu Xinglan, who was standing by, saw that the two were about to quarrel. For the sake of quieting his ears, he quickly took out the food he had bought in advance from his bell and handed it to Xuan Ling.
"We brought them back especially for you. Each one is carefully selected and they are all delicious."
Xuan Ling's momentum disappeared in an instant, and he took the food from Chu Xinglan in surprise. This was bought for him by the young prince himself!
I picked up a chicken leg with satisfaction and took a big bite. It smelled so good!
Chu Xinglan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Xuan Ling consciously running to the stone table and eating heartily. He then took out a jar of Langgu wine from his bell and handed it to him.
"I found this when I went out today. I think it tastes really good. Would you like to try it?"
Xuan Ling was also a wine lover. His eyes lit up. He freed one hand to open the mud seal, then raised his head and took a big sip.
Xuan Ling narrowed his eyes as soon as he tasted the rich and mellow wine. He looked at Chu Xinglan only after he had savored it.
"Your Highness, you have good taste."
Chu Xinglan chuckled twice: "Before, Bi Wu treated me to a jar of strong liquor, saying that he stole it from you. I thought you would not like this wine."
Xuan Ling waved his hand: "What would that stupid wolf drink? I put it there for them to steal. I have hidden the real good wine."
"I was in a hurry this time, so I didn't bring any with me. Otherwise, I could have let you taste it. It's a lot better than this wine."
Having said that, he suddenly looked at Chu Xinglan with bright eyes.
"How about you come back with me to the demon tribe this time? The human race is about to fall into chaos, and you will definitely not be safe here. If you come back with me, so many people will protect you, and you can do whatever you want."
Chu Xinglan didn't expect that he would suddenly mention returning to the demon clan. Although he knew that he would go back sooner or later the day he learned his identity, he obviously didn't think it would be now.
It was impossible not to be curious about the demon race. He really wanted to go back and see the place where he was born and grew up, but...
Sang Yunqi, who had been silent, became anxious when he saw him suddenly fall silent, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this proposal.
He refused directly: "No need, I will protect him naturally."
Chu Xinglan looked at his master in surprise. When he met those deep light-colored eyes, he was distracted for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.
He smiled at Xuan Ling embarrassedly: "Well, I won't go back for now. I'll wait until my cultivation level is higher. My master will protect me here."
Xuan Ling was just in a good mood, so he just mentioned it. But when he actually heard that he was rejected, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Especially Sang Yunqi's smug expression made him even more unhappy, and he complained unhappily.
"You protected him well? If you really protected him well, how could the little prince get injured one after another?"
What he was talking about was naturally the incident in Cangshan Town and this time in the secret realm where Chu Xinglan was injured.
Speaking of this, Sang Yunqi's face turned a little unhappy.
Chu Xinglan quickly came out to smooth things over, "Don't blame my master, it was me who was caught off guard, and my master has already rescued me as quickly as possible, so I'm fine, right?"
Xuan Ling became even more upset when he thought about whether Sang Yunqi could go to save his little prince this time or send him to deal with Fan Lou.
But since Chu Xinglan had said so, he didn't know what to say. He grabbed the jar of wine and took two big gulps before he suppressed his resentment.
Sang Yunqi tilted his head and looked at his little disciple: "You must be tired after playing outside for a whole day. Go back and have a rest."
Chu Xinglan heard the tone that did not even suggest negotiation, which was obviously an order to leave. He looked at the two of them hesitantly, then quietly left.
Anyway, these two people are in the yard, so there shouldn't be a fight, right? Even if a fight breaks out, I'm so close that I can rush over and stop them quickly.
Seeing Chu Xinglan return to the room and close the door, Xuan Ling put down the food in his hand and took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth.
"I plan to go back to the demon tribe soon. I came out in a hurry this time, and I'm afraid Fu Lin and his men may not be able to handle some things."
After finishing speaking, Xuan Ling paused, and then continued: "I will leave the young prince to you. I can see that he now relies on you more than the rest of us. I am afraid that even the Demon King cannot compare to you when he comes out of retreat."
"Your thoughts..."
Sang Yunqi raised his eyebrows and took out a few jars of wine from the space and placed them on the stone table.
"What am I thinking?"
