Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but think that it would be quite happy if she could always be Xue'er. She wouldn't have to practice cultivation, carry this damn Pi Lingzhu, or have such horrible dreams.

"What are you doing here?" Zi Yan suddenly appeared beside Yu Xiaobai, startling her.

"Why do you walk without making any sound?" Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but ask.

"What are you thinking about? You didn't even notice me approaching you?" Zi Yan asked back.

"I had a nightmare and couldn't sleep. How about you?" Yu Xiaobai leaned against the wall and said slowly.

"Same." Zi Yan imitated Yu Xiaobai and leaned to the other side.

"What are you worried about?" Yu Xiaobai asked curiously.

"The road ahead is long, and I don't know what to worry about." Zi Yan said confusedly.

Her dream was to join the Immortal Sect and fight against demons. Now her dream has come true, but it is not the same as she imagined.

"I'm the same as you." Yu Xiaobai replied sadly.

"Where are your family members?" Zi Yan couldn't help but ask curiously. Anyone who could be accepted as a disciple by the high priest must have a good family background.

"I have no family, so Lan Moqiu is my family! Lan Moqiu has always been by my side as far as I can remember." What Yu Xiaobai said was indeed true. The first person she saw when she woke up in this world was Lan Moqiu.

"So, you were raised by the high priest?" Zi Yan never expected that Yu Xiaobai and Lan Moqiu had this kind of relationship.

"I think so!" Yu Xiaobai replied.

She certainly couldn't say that Lan Moqiu had raised her for four years. According to Lan Moqiu's calculation, she was only four years old now, a four-year-old dog.

"Then aren't you more like the high priest's daughter rather than a disciple?" Zi Yan was intrigued and asked curiously.

"How can it be a daughter? I was thinking that if I can't find someone I love in the future, I will marry him as my wife." Yu Xiaobai suddenly raised his voice.

Lan Moqiu is her first choice as her husband, how can he be her father?

"What? You want to marry the high priest? Don't you mind that he is so much older than you?" Zi Yan was also shocked by Yu Xiaobai's words.

"He's not much older than me, right? How old is he? I can accept it." Yu Xiaobai said frankly.

Anyway, there was no other woman around Lan Moqiu, and he had no feelings for Sa Yulong, the vicious woman. As the saying goes, if a woman chases a man, it will take a long time.

By then, Yu Xiaobai only needs to make a little effort and the handsome high priest will be easily captured.

"The high priest must be at least several hundred years old, right? He can be your ancestor, and you can accept it? I can't believe you have the same idea as Sa Yulong... just as weird." Zi Yan couldn't find an adjective to express her surprise.

"Hundreds of years old? How many years old is Lan Moqiu?" Yu Xiaobai seemed not to believe his ears and asked twice.

"Don't you know how many hundreds of years old he is? You want to marry him, so you don't call him master, and you call him by his name all day long?" Zi Yan now finally understood Yu Xiaobai's thoughts.

"Is he really hundreds of years old?" Yu Xiaobai asked curiously.

"Of course, legend has it that there is Lan Moqiu, the high priest of the Crescent Moon Dynasty. No one knows his origins, but we know that he is good at divination and has extremely high magical skills. The selection of emperors for the Crescent Moon Dynasty throughout the ages was all determined by the results of his divination. Once an emperor died, it was his responsibility to assist the next emperor to become successful." Zi Yan told Yu Xiaobai everything she knew.

After spending some time with her, she discovered that Yu Xiaobai was completely different from other female disciples. She didn't distinguish between family background and status, and seemed to treat everyone equally, so she was willing to get close to her.

Yu Xiaobai was completely shocked by what Zi Yan said. Lan Moqiu was actually an old demon who had lived for hundreds of years? An old immortal? No wonder he always looked calm no matter what happened.

She even naively said such ridiculous words as wanting to marry him. No wonder he looked as if he had seen a ghost. It turned out that he didn't like love that spanned several centuries.

Yu Xiaobai himself couldn't help but shiver.

"What? Knowing that he is much older than you, are you still willing to marry him?" Zi Yan couldn't help but joked.

"Who knows if I fall in love with him one day. Love doesn't care about eternity, it only cares about being together day and night." Yu Xiaobai said nonsense thoughtfully.

"What about Master Helan? He seems to like you very much." Zi Yan said affirmatively.

"Zi Yan, this is your fault. It's obvious that he likes you very much. I discovered it before in the Priest's Mansion." Yu Xiaobai looked at Zi Yan as if she was an idiot and said.

"Haha, do you know what it means that those who are involved are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things more clearly?" Zi Yan chuckled disdainfully.

"Oh, I can't explain it to you anyway, but I am sure that the person Ruofeng likes must be you, not me." Yu Xiaobai continued to tease Zi Yan.

"He may have liked me before, but now I'm sure he doesn't like me anymore." Zi Yan said with a chuckle.

"Well, you two are still awake chatting about men in the middle of the night. Are you two feeling horny in the winter? You disturbed our sleep." Mo Xiaotan murmured in his sleep.

This sentence was a bit explicit, and in the dim light, Zi Yan and Yu Xiaobai blushed unconsciously.

"Go to sleep! We'll discuss this issue tomorrow." Yu Xiaobai said in a low voice.

The two of them quietly retreated to their room and lay down without saying anything more.

In a cave a few dozen miles away, Helan Ruofeng sneezed one after another, waking up Cong Li who was sleeping soundly.

Taibu Xingjun fell asleep leaning against a haystack with a peaceful look on his face.

On the other side, Bai Qiyang was like a plaster, sticking to Cong Li and shouting loudly.

There was a bonfire burning on the ground, and Helan Ruofeng sat alone by the bonfire, thinking.

Cong Li took great effort to pry open Bai Qiyang's hands that were holding him.

He walked slowly to Helan Ruofeng's side and sat down, looking at him in a daze.

"Helan, are you worried about something?" Cong Li asked curiously. The two of them had known each other for ten years and had long been brothers who could talk about anything.

"I'm doubting Xiaoyu's identity and origins." Helan Ruofeng directly expressed his doubts.

"Is there anything special about Xiaoyu's identity and origin?" Cong Li asked.

"Do you still remember what I told you about encountering the red-banded snake demon in the secret realm?" Helan Ruofeng said.

"Of course I remember how you and Miss Xinyue worked together to defeat the red-banded snake demon. You told it more than once." Cong Li looked at him with amusement and said.

"The first time I met Xiaoyu, I felt that she was familiar. Her personality was more like Zi Yan three years ago. And the current Zi Yan and the Zi Yan three years ago, except for their similar appearance, are completely different people." Helan Ruofeng carefully recalled what he had observed.

"Is there anything special about this?" Cong Li still asked with the look of an innocent baby.

"Xiao Yu suddenly asked me today, if she was a red-bellied snake demon, would I be friends with her? Why did she say that, was there any other meaning?" Helan Ruofeng continued.

"You mean that the current Miss Xiaoyu is a red-banded snake demon, but I don't sense any demonic aura from her?" Cong Li said in surprise.

"That's not what I meant. Anyway, something is wrong." Helan Ruofeng was also confused by Yu Xiaobai's performance.

"Why don't you just ask Miss Xiaoyu directly next time you meet her? Why bother yourself?" Cong Li would not think too much and would just ask directly if there was anything.

"I wanted to ask too, but she didn't say anything. Women's thoughts are really peculiar." Helan Ruofeng said depressedly.

"Don't think too much and go to bed!" After Cong Li said that, he returned to Bai Qiyang and lay down quietly.

As soon as he lay down, Bai Qiyang's hand came over again. Cong Li glanced at Bai Qiyang and naturally took his hand away. Bai Qiyang let go of it again, and Cong Li simply slapped him, and Bai Qiyang went to sleep peacefully.

The next day, in the forest...

Yu Xiaobai was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by the shouting and screaming outside.

She got up and saw that she was the only one in the room still sleeping in. She got up and went outside and found that all the male disciples were learning skiing from Ah Zuo. The screams and shouts were coming from them.

I saw them using a wooden skateboard to slide down from the highest point of the mountain. The whole way was so smooth that Yu Xiaobai was eager to try it.

After watching for a while, she realized that there were not only male disciples, but female disciples had also joined in.

Some of them fell down, got up and continued sliding, then fell down again and got up again. The group had a lot of fun.

"Now that you're awake, do you want to play too?" Zi Yan saw Yu Xiaobai wake up, so she walked over to her and asked.

"Sure, but I want to eat first." Yu Xiaobai is not someone who likes to play on an empty stomach.

At this moment, the Qiankun bag in her arms suddenly moved. Yu Xiaobai then realized that the pet she had obtained with so much difficulty was still locked in the bag.

"Oh, my dear, I'm sorry. I'll let you out right now." Yu Xiaobai said as he quickly took out the Qiankun bag and released Heiduo.

After Hei Duo was freed, he ran out like crazy. He ran around the forest several times, leaving thick white smoke wherever he passed.

Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but rub his forehead. It looked like this guy was so pent up that he started to poop everywhere when he was free.

Fortunately, the ice and snow here cannot cause fire, so the melting snow forms circles of thick white fog.

"Is he defecating?" Zi Yan asked tentatively.

"That's right, he's setting fires everywhere!" Yu Xiaobai didn't understand why she let this guy out in the first place.

Black Dora finished, shook his forked tail and stood in front of Yu Xiaobai.

"Master, you've locked me up for a long time this time. I really can't hold it anymore. I'm sorry." Hei Duo stood respectfully in front of Yu Xiaobai and said sincerely.

"He can actually speak?" Zi Yan looked at Hei Duo in front of her with surprise.

"My spiritual pet is an ancient demon beast. Not only can it speak, but it can also transform into the appearance of a human." Yu Xiaobai boasted proudly.

As soon as she finished speaking, Hei Duo turned around and quickly turned into a human, a short, fat little boy with a red face.

"Hahaha..." Yu Xiaobai couldn't help laughing.

The black dog looks so mighty and majestic, but when it turns into a human, it looks so funny.

Seeing that he was making fun of her, Hei Duo quietly restored her true form.

"Xiao Yu, he doesn't seem to like the way you laugh like this." Zi Yan reached out and grabbed Yu Xiaobai, who was laughing without caring about his image.

"Master, I'm hungry." Heiduo said to Yu Xiaobai with a complaining look.

Yu Xiaobai was stunned. He forgot that this pet had to be fed! And this one was quite special. He liked to eat flames. Where could he find flames for him?

"Is Samadhi True Fire okay? What else do you like to eat besides fire?" Yu Xiaobai asked after looking around to no avail.

The climate here is extremely cold, and she couldn't be so selfish as to waste the hunter's firewood.

"Master, I like fire, and I also like other things, such as... evil spirits, ghosts or other things." Hei Duo looked at Yu Xiaobai as if he was an idiot.

"How can you eat random things? Evil spirits? Ghosts? Or something else? Are you a Huotou or a Taotie?" Yu Xiaobai didn't know that raising a monster as a pet would be so troublesome.

"Let's go hunting in the woods, pheasants, rabbits and so on. Do you want to eat them?" Yu Xiaobai could only ask in a different way.

"Sure, I can hunt by myself." Heiduo looked at Yu Xiaobai sensibly and said.

After all, he is a monster that has lived for tens of thousands of years. How could he starve himself to death?

"Okay, let's go out hunting now. Remember, your current identity is my pet dog, and you can't hurt anyone outside, okay?" Xiaobai warned carefully.

"Understood, Master." Hei Duo replied respectfully.

The three of them swiftly left the room and walked towards the group of people skiing not far away.

"Junior Sister Xiaoyu, Junior Sister Zi Yan, do you want to go skiing?" Xing Fang rushed over excitedly when he saw the two of them, but when he saw Heiduo beside Yu Xiaobai, he retreated in fear.

"Junior Sister Xiaoyu, will your monster bite people?" Several people asked fearfully when they saw Hei Duo.

"Don't call him a monster. He is my spiritual pet from now on. His name is Heiduo. He won't bite people and he can talk. If you don't provoke him, he won't bite you." Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but say angrily.

"Xiao Yu, let's go over there and take a look somewhere farther away." Zi Yan called from the side.

"Let's go, Heiduo, let's go hunting." Yu Xiaobai gave an order, and Heiduo rushed out happily from the front and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Yu Xiaobai and Zi Yan followed closely behind, running all the way until they came to a deep forest where the trees were much denser than in other places.

The groans of the wild beast could be heard from a distance. When they got closer, they saw that Hei Duo had turned into a huge monster over three meters tall, and its appearance was much more ferocious than before.

Under his feet was a tiger of considerable size, which looked at him in horror. When the tiger saw Yu Xiaobai and Ziyan coming, its eyes were full of pleading.

Yu Xiaobai and Zi Yan were so scared that they took several steps back. She liked Heiduo who looked like a dog, not the huge monster in front of her with a ferocious look.

"Xiao Yu, why do you, why do you like him to be your spirit pet?" Zi Yan asked with some stuttering.

"Because, because, because he looks as cute as a dog, with a forked tail." Yu Xiaobai looked at Heiduo in front of him and said hypocritically.

"Is that a forked tail? It's clearly two huge pillars." Zi Yan also murmured while looking at Hei Duo.

At this moment, the tiger let out another weak cry for help. Not far away, two other tigers were also frightened by Hei Duo and their legs went limp. They looked at their captured companions with sadness.

"Why does this scene feel a bit heartbreaking?" Yu Xiaobai hated this kind of separation of life and death, but he didn't want his pet to starve to death.

While she was hesitating, Hei Duo grabbed the tiger and threw it directly into her mouth.

He just mumbled a few times, burped with satisfaction, and blew out a circle of fire.

Yu Xiaobai thought he was full, but he saw him looking at the other two tigers again.
