The Right Protector of the Demon Sect is reborn

The room was extremely quiet. The oil lamp had burned out at some point, and the room was plunged into darkness. Lou Xinzhou opened his eyes from meditation and looked out the window.

It was still dark and the moon was still high in the sky, but it was obvious that it had been a long time since Nan Rongnian left.

Lou Xinzhou couldn't help but frown slightly and got off the bed. Suddenly, he realized that the rabbit on the bedside had disappeared. He was stunned and released his spiritual sense to look for it. Only then did he find its trace in the corner beside the table.

The little rabbit seemed to be hungry and kept groping in the corner. Seeing this, Lou Xinzhou walked over lightly, squatted in front of it, then turned his wrist, took out some spiritual plants from the space, and placed them in front of it.

The spiritual plants carried the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. As soon as Lou Xinzhou placed them on the ground, the little creature came over impatiently.

Seeing that it was eating happily, Lou Xinzhou stood up and walked to the window.

Nan Rongnian had been out for too long, and she was still a little worried.

Lou Xinzhou leaned almost half of his body out of the window, and released his spiritual sense, and finally found the young man's trace not far outside the city.

“You actually ran that far.”

But fortunately, everything is fine. Let's wait for him to come back.

Lou Xinzhou breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go back to continue meditating when he suddenly sensed an unusual aura. His eyes suddenly widened, and he jumped out of the house, hurrying out of the city.

What is Xunlang doing?

......

"Don't worry, you just turned back into your original form."

Xun Lang looked at the small antique copper bell in his hand and spoke softly. He didn't know what he was thinking of. The smile in his eyes faded a lot at this moment, and was mixed with many other emotions. He was alone under the moonlight and looked a little lonely.

Lou Xinzhou was seeing this scene when she arrived. She took a quick look and locked onto the object in Xunlang's hand. Her heart tightened, and she turned her wrist to summon the magic sword. In a blink of an eye, she moved in front of Xunlang, and then lightly lifted the tip of the sword to snatch the ancient copper bell from Xunlang's hand.

The whole set of movements was smooth and flowing, leaving Xunlang no chance to react.

"Your Excellency, you came a little too quickly."

Xunlang was not surprised at her appearance at all. Seeing her fall into the middle of the river, he turned around and smiled, his tone very casual.

Lou Xinzhou stood on tiptoe above the water. The spiritual sword in his hand was just an ordinary earth-grade one, but with the blessing of the dark blue spiritual light, the snow-white sword body reflected the cold moonlight, and it actually had a bit of subtle charm.

"what have you done?"

Lou Xinzhou asked in a cold voice, with a hint of anger in her tone that was difficult to conceal. She had never been like this when she was besieged by six gates.

"You don't have to be so hostile to me." Xun Lang smiled and said, "We are not enemies."

"It's still unknown."

However, Lou Xinzhou still did not let her guard down. She put her left hand behind her back, tightly holding the ancient copper bell, not daring to relax even a little.

Seeing her so alert, Xun Lang shook his head and smiled, then took two steps towards Lou Xinzhou. Seeing this, the latter rolled over and moved a few meters away from him.

"..."

Xun Lang lowered his head and smiled again. There was an inexplicable light in his eyes, and no one knew what it meant.

"Your Excellency, don't you know that? He is my creation. Everything I do is to help him regain his past."

"Getting back the past?"

Lou Xinzhou frowned.

"You, Venerable Bai Yun, can also refine weapons, so you should be able to understand." Xun Lang explained, "When something that I worked so hard to create is damaged for some reason, I will want to repair it."

"..."

Silver light sprinkled on the water. Lou Xinzhou tightly grasped the magic sword in her hand. The night wind ruffled a few strands of her hair, making her look cold and unkind.

Xunlang didn't know whether she had heard it or not, so he continued to add after a long time.

"I understand you are wary, but don't worry, I am really not your enemy."

"Then what are you doing here this time?"

After hearing this, Lou Xinzhou raised his eyes and asked.

"Let's see how it goes." Xunlang answered without hesitation, "He can now transform into his original form, proving that my previous efforts were not in vain."

"..."

Hearing this, Lou Xinzhou lowered his head slightly and looked at the ancient copper bell in his hand. There was golden light flowing on it, and it was obvious that it was extraordinary.

It turns out this is his true self.

Lou Xinzhou felt a little surprised, and thought the small object in his hand looked very cute. He gently stroked the bronze body of the ancient bell with his fingertips, and felt a lot more relaxed.

"Although he can transform back to his original form, he is still very weak, and his strength is less than one thousandth of what it was before, so you don't have to worry, he will be able to transform back soon."

But there was no expression on her face, so Xun Lang thought she was worried, so he spoke softly.

"how long it takes?"

Lou Xinzhou asked, but did not look up.

"If we hurry, we can change back tonight."

Xunlang laughed.

"I see."

Lou Xinzhou returned and finally put away the magic sword. After a long time, he saw that the man did not leave, so he asked again.

"Is there anything else, Your Excellency?"

"How heartless."

After hearing this, Xunlang shook his head and sighed, then waved his sleeves and turned away.

Seeing this, Lou Xinzhou lightly tapped her toes, causing a faint ripple on the water surface. She turned nimbly in the air and landed back on the ground.

"Oh, right." But the man hadn't left yet, and a voice floated back, "Just a reminder, your good disciple seems to be worried and wanted to commit suicide just now, you'd better pay attention."

Seeking death?

Lou Xinzhou opened his eyes slightly, feeling surprised and a little bit unbelievable.

I didn't expect it to come to this? But he really didn't mention it at all.

These days, she saw him talking and laughing as usual, but she didn't notice anything.

But why?

Is it because of fear of the future, the coming war or something else?

No, it should be something else.

Lou Xinzhou understood a little. She looked up at the sky tonight. It was already late night, and the clouds were getting thicker. Pushed by the wind, the clouds blocked much of the light of the full moon, and she could not see its full picture.

"..."

After a long moment, she gently placed the small copper bell in her hand against her heart. The sound of her heartbeat was strong and powerful, and she spoke softly.

"Did you hear me? Ah Nian, I am here and I will always be here."

......

When Nan Rongnian opened her eyes, she found herself being gently held in someone's arms. A familiar fragrance lingered around her nose, and she could even feel a hint of ice and snow chill where she was close to that person. His head was right on her chest, and if she held her breath and listened, she could hear his slow and clear heartbeat.

He opened his eyes slightly and looked up quietly.

What came into view was the familiar face of that person, but he was still sleeping soundly.

"Did you hear me? Ah Nian, I am here and I will always be here."

The words she had said not long ago echoed in his mind, hazy yet clear. He couldn't help but clench his hands gently, and after a long time, he lowered his head again.
