Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

"Xiao Yu..." It was the first time that Helan Ruofeng looked directly at Yu Xiaobai with an equal attitude.

He thought Xiaoyu was just a simple and ignorant girl, who was cheerful, open-minded and heartless. She couldn't see through his mind and couldn't feel his affection.

He just needs to stay by her side, love her, accompany her, let her slowly adapt to his presence, and finally choose to be with him.

"So, Ruofeng, I just want someone who is devoted to me and will never change his mind. Not someone like you who liked Zi Yan yesterday but suddenly changed his mind and liked someone else today?" Yu Xiaobai laid a lot of groundwork before saying this.

"Xiao Yu..." Helan Ruofeng understood what Yu Xiaobai meant. He only wanted someone who was devoted to him, not someone who changed his mind at will.

"If you can't be faithful to me, don't bother me." Yu Xiaobai said this in a serious tone.

She didn't dislike the person in front of her, but she had a fragile heart! What if her identity as a demon was exposed one day, and the person in front of her turned out to be the one holding a knife against her? How would she react?

"Xiao Yu... I know that I did like Zi Yan before, but that was in the past, and it has been a few years. Besides, there is nothing innocent between Zi Yan and me, and it was all one-sided. Ever since I knew that I liked you, I have never thought about Zi Yan again, Xiao Yu..."

Helan Ruofeng thought it over and said everything that was on his mind.

"Yes, it's all your one-sided love for her. She doesn't even pay attention to you, so I deserve it." Yu Xiaobai had no idea at this time that her resentment was all due to jealousy of Zi Yan.

"Xiao Yu, I promise that I will keep my distance from Zi Yan in the future..." Helan Ruofeng immediately raised his hand and was about to swear.

"What do you want to promise, Master Helan?" A cold voice came, and when I looked in the direction of the voice, it turned out to be Lan Moqiu.

Helan Ruofeng was puzzled. Wasn't he gentle before? Why did he suddenly become so cold and distant?

"Xiao Yu and I are nominally master and disciple, but in reality we have never performed the apprenticeship ceremony. So, strictly speaking, she is not my disciple." Lan Moqiu said to Helan Ruofeng with sharp eyes.

"What does this mean, High Priest?" Helan Ruofeng was also confused by his words. Why did he suddenly mention this?

"Xiaoyu..." Lan Moqiu suddenly turned around and looked at Yu Xiaobai seriously and asked, "You said before that you were willing to marry me, does that still count?"

As soon as Lan Moqiu said this, the other two were petrified on the spot.

Yu Xiaobai's mind: What? Lan Moqiu is actually willing to marry me? I had this plan at the time, after all, he is the only one who knows my identity. However, he clearly knows that my true identity is a dog, and of course I am not a dog, but he is still willing? How much love does this have to have!

Helan Ruofeng's mind: What? They are not real master and disciple, and Xiaoyu even said she wanted to marry him? When did all this happen? Why didn't Xiaoyu tell me about this? If Xiaoyu marries him, what should I do?

"How is it, Xiaoyu?" Lan Moqiu asked again when he saw her in a daze.

"What? You still remember it!" Yu Xiaobai asked with an embarrassed look, smiling face.

"Of course, you once said you would marry me, does that still count?" Lan Moqiu asked again.

"Ah, this, this..." Yu Xiaobai looked at Lan Moqiu who was determined to win, and then looked at Helan Ruofeng who was obviously panicking but pretending to be calm.

Damn, how could she be faced with such a choice? Who is she, Yu Xiaobai? She is a person with a very small brain capacity and a very simple brain circuit. This kind of question is even more difficult to answer than killing her. What should she do?

"High Priest, everyone knows that you are Xiaoyu's master." Seeing Yu Xiaobai hesitate, Helan Ruofeng turned to Lan Moqiu and said.

"Hehe, this priest doesn't care..." Lan Moqiu waved his sleeves and said in a very domineering manner.

That look and demeanor that looked down on the world and looked down on all the heroes made it difficult for both Yu Xiaobai and Helan Ruofeng not to be shocked.

Yes, how could a person who decides who will be the emperor be afraid of other people's gossip?

"But what if Xiaoyu cares?" Helan Ruofeng looked at Yu Xiaobai.

"I don't care..." Yu Xiaobai immediately answered affirmatively.

It’s just a teacher-student relationship, what’s the big deal? She really doesn’t care at all.

"Xiao Yu..." Helan Ruofeng heard her answer and obviously misunderstood. The bright light in his eyes dimmed in an instant, no longer as bright and dazzling as before.

It turned out that the person in her heart was the high priest.

They had known each other before. The high priest was as gentle as jade and took good care of her. They lived together as a master and disciple. It was normal for her to like him. How could he not understand!

"Is the little fish willing to do this?" Lan Moqiu asked more aggressively.

Yu Xiaobai had never seen Lan Moqiu so aggressive, and for a moment he didn't understand what he wanted to do.

"Xiao Yu, it seems that I have come at the wrong time today. I will leave now, so as not to disturb your master and disciple's love talk." After saying this, Helan Ruofeng turned around and left with a resolute expression.

"Helan Ruofeng...what's going on? It just happened out of nowhere." Yu Xiaobai suddenly felt overwhelmed. He stood up, jumped off the bed, and chased after him barefoot.

"You are not allowed to go..." Lan Moqiu waved his hand and isolated her room from the outside world.

"Lan Moqiu, what are you doing? Remove the barrier quickly." Yu Xiaobai suddenly shouted angrily.

Everything happened so suddenly today. What kind of nonsense did she say? If she didn't chase her out and explain it clearly, Helan Ruofeng might never have anything to do with her again.

This is not what she wants to see, she just wants to delay it for now. When she has a chance to be a normal person again, or one day she can be strong enough to not fear anyone. At that time, she will take the initiative, she will confess, and she will bravely pursue what she wants and loves in her heart.

As long as Helan Ruofeng hadn't changed his mind and fallen in love with someone else, she would definitely be willing to try to be with him. She really wanted to, but she couldn't and didn't dare to say it now.

"You shouldn't be so willful." Lan Moqiu looked at her from behind with a cold tone, feeling mixed emotions.

"I like him..." Yu Xiaobai turned around and said solemnly.

"I know..." Lan Moqiu also stared into her eyes steadily.

"Since you know that, why do you still want to make him angry and drive him away? What if he no longer likes me, just like he was driven away by Zi Yan?" Yu Xiaobai asked panicked.

"If he changes his mind, is such a person worthy of your love?" Lan Moqiu asked back.

"Yeah, is it worth it for her to give up so easily?" Yu Xiaobai asked himself.

"But I just like him! My heart won't lie to me." Yu Xiaobai asked back, poking his heart with his hand.

"Hehe..." Lan Moqiu smiled helplessly.

The man in front of him, who was once so high-spirited and said shamelessly that he would not give in to petty love, was now arguing with him for a human kid.

"You have changed..." Lan Moqiu looked at Yu Xiaobai with a strange look and said three words.

"I don't care. I'm going to go get him back now." Yu Xiaobai had no time to care about what Lan Moqiu said at this moment. She only thought about how Helan Ruofeng left so decisively. She probably hated her for the rest of her life.

"You'd better stay here and reflect on yourself!" Lan Moqiu said, then shook his head helplessly and left the house.

Outside the door, Aji and Heiduo were looking into the house.

"If she escapes, I will throw you into the purgatory burning pool and refine you." Lan Moqiu said to Hei Duo with threatening eyes.

After saying that, he strode out of the yard.

Ah Ji looked at Hei Duo in confusion: "Hei Duo, how did you offend the adults?"

Hei Duo couldn't help but shudder. He finally remembered who this seemingly gentle but actually cold guy was. Wasn't he the god who followed the demon king in and out ten thousand years ago? Why was he in the human world?

He said he wanted to throw himself into the burning pool of purgatory? Hei Duo was scared just thinking about it. He originally wanted to let his master out as soon as this guy left.

Now that he thought about it, saving his life was more important. He didn't want to be burned to death by the black glass fire in the purgatory pool. Anyway, the master had food and drink here, and there were people to serve him, so there was nothing wrong with that.

Yu Xiaobai punched and kicked at the barrier set by Lan Moqiu, but it was all in vain. She could only stop in despair, thinking that her sudden first love was over before it even began.

How long would it take her to forget Helan Ruofeng in the future? And how long would she have to wait before she met someone she loved as much as she loved Helan Ruofeng?

Facts proved that Yu Xiaobai was overthinking. Helan Ruofeng was already heartbroken for her, but she was already thinking about the person she would meet in the future.

After Helan Ruofeng returned to Hanyu City, he asked the waiter for several jugs of wine and poured them into his mouth without saying a word.

The waiter tried to persuade him to stop but failed, and could only watch him drink three pots of wine in one breath.

The fiery liquid rushed into his throat, hot and spicy, and the burning sensation made him feel that his heart was aching as well.

When a group of people from Yunji Villa came in from outside, they saw Helan Ruofeng acting crazy while drunk, and asked everyone he caught why.

Seeing this, Zi Yan stepped forward and asked.

"Master Helan, why are you doing this?" This man usually gives people a gentle and elegant feeling, so why is he yelling so uncivilized today?

"Miss Zi Yan? Miss Zi Yan..." Helan Ruofeng could not even stand steadily and staggered to Zi Yan.

"Master Helan..." Seeing this, Zhou Ze hurried forward to stop him.

"Senior Brother Zhou Ze? Senior Brother Zhou Ze... do you know... I also had a crush on Zi Yan. But... but... she ignored me, she didn't like me. At this time Xiaoyu appeared, Xiaoyu appeared..." Helan Ruofeng spoke nonsense incoherently.

Everyone looked at Zi Yan with gossip.

"Weren't they in the same group during the selection?"

"Yes, there is also His Majesty, they are a group of three."

"Could it be that since then, Helan has been attracted to Junior Sister Zi Yan?"

"But what does this have to do with Junior Sister Xiaoyu?"

"Could it be that Junior Sister Xiaoyu also likes Helan Ruofeng, so Helan is in a dilemma?"

"No way, then wouldn't Junior Sister Xiaoyu be the third party?"

"Don't make blind guesses. Didn't Helan say that Junior Sister Zi Yan ignored him? Junior Sister Xiao Yu is not the third party. At most, she is just a substitute."

"What substitute? If Junior Sister Xiaoyu is a substitute, why is Helan courting death here?"

Faced with the sudden gossip, everyone was talking about it, and all kinds of speculations emerged one after another, and they could instantly come up with several stories in their minds.

Zi Yan stood aside expressionlessly, not saying a word. Did Helan Ruofeng fall in love with her at first sight? Was it possible? She was just a maid at that time.

"Mr. Helan, you are drunk. Let me take you back to your room to rest!" Zhou Ze helplessly reached out to support Helan Ruofeng.

"Brother Zhou Ze, Brother Zhou Ze..." Helan Ruofeng called Zhou Ze, wanting to cry but not tears, and said, "I felt bad when Zi Yan ignored me at first. But today, Xiao Yu said that she wanted to marry the high priest, and the high priest wanted to marry her, and I felt even worse. I felt very sad."

"What?" Sa Yulong was furious when she heard this. The man she had been thinking about for many years was actually going to get married? And he was going to marry a little girl who appeared out of nowhere.

In addition to Sa Yulong's angry expression, everyone present who knew the relationship between Yu Xiaobai and Lan Moqiu was shocked.

In a country that places such great importance on ethical relationships, there was actually someone who openly said that she wanted to marry her master, and the master actually ridiculously agreed?

What kind of ridiculous joke is this?

"Brother, you guys stay here and continue your training. I want to go back to Xinyue." Sa Yulong was so focused on Lan Moqiu's marriage at the moment that she had no idea what the man in black had told her.

Zhou Ze glanced at Zi Yan beside him, thinking that if Sa Yulong left because of the high priest, she would not think of harming Zi Yan, so he agreed to let her go back to Xinyue and reminded her: "Okay, be careful on the road."

Sa Yulong wanted to go back to the High Priest's Mansion to find out what was going on, so she didn't want to delay any longer. After getting Zhou Ze's permission, she immediately went upstairs to pack her bags and set off without caring about the darkness.

"Why is this senior sister in such a hurry?" Mo Xiaotan asked puzzledly.

"I heard that she lived in the priest's mansion for several years before, thinking that she could marry the high priest and become his wife. Now that the high priest wants to get married, she is naturally unwilling." Wei Xin said with contempt.

"Get married? You can't get married... I don't agree..." Helan Ruofeng was drunk and was forcibly helped upstairs by Zhou Ze.

"Oh, I didn't expect that Junior Sister Xiaoyu is so likable." Tong Yi said in a tone of mocking smile.

"You like it too, right?" Mo Xiaotan walked up and kicked him.

"I'm just kidding, I can't talk about it yet..." Tong Yi screamed in pain.

After Helan Ruofeng got drunk, the person who felt the most uncomfortable was probably Taibu Xingjun.

His own disciple was crying and shouting, crying and laughing and refusing to sleep, and he was the one who was tormenting him.

"Wei Qing... you came here to overcome a tribulation, or a tribulation of love?" Taibu Xingjun muttered to himself, looking at Helan Ruofeng, who was already fast asleep with tears in his eyes, with disdain.

"Xiao Yu...you are not allowed to get married...you are not allowed...I don't agree." Helan Ruofeng was still protesting even in his sleep.

He was just trying to save face and suffer in the end. He left the priest's house with such determination that he regretted it so much in his dream.

Why did he meet Zi Yan first? Why didn't Xiao Yu meet Helan Ruofeng first?

A few days later, Lan Moqiu found an inner elixir from somewhere and went to see Yu Xiaobai.

When Yu Xiaobai saw him, his face was full of resentment, as if he was looking at the enemy who killed his father.

Lan Moqiu didn't seem to care at all, and continued to find the furnace to refine the magic pill.

"Don't look at me like that. Didn't you say you would work like a slave to repay me for saving your life? Now that you haven't repaid me, you start to hate me?" Lan Moqiu said to himself.
