Chapter 220
Lian Zhen had just been beaten by Zhong Xian and then by Ji Zhi. He followed Zhong Xian dejectedly, thinking that if he was not looking for the fourth young master, he would never come to this Demon Palace again. Saving his life was the most important thing.
When he came here, he wanted to provoke Zhong Xian, but now he wants to escape quickly.
Following Zhong Xian again, he entered the Demon Palace and saw that there was no one around. He sighed and said:
"Fourth Young Master, Gongsun Ming has never made a mistake since he came to the Demon Realm. Are you sure he has any ill intentions towards the Demon Realm?"
This was also one of the reasons why he came here today.
Yu Xi asked Zhong Xian last night if there was any city lord whose name contained the word "Ming". She had seen this person in the cave before, and he might be a spy planted in the demon clan.
Zhong Xian thought about it and the only one left was Gongsun Ming.
So Lian Zhen brought Gongsun Ming to the Demon Palace today.
"It's him." Yu Xi nodded. "I just talked to him. He thought I was his accomplice."
Hearing this, Lian Zhen's expression was not very good.
Gongsun Ming is his confidant. If Gongsun Ming has any ill intentions towards the Demon Realm, he probably cannot escape responsibility.
He came to the Demon Realm to preserve the fox clan's bloodline and seek asylum. If Zhong Xian suspected him because of this, things would be troublesome.
Just when I was feeling anxious, Zhong Xian spoke first, "I don't blame you, you don't have to worry."
Gongsun Ming subconsciously looked towards Zhong Xian, but saw that Zhong Xian was only fixing Yu Xi's hair, without even looking at him.
"Xiao Xi'er has already told me that Gongsun Ming can be kept for now. He won't do anything that harms the Demon Realm for the time being. Let him do what he should do. You just need to pay attention to what he does."
Although Gongsun Ming currently trusts Yu Xi, it is impossible for Yu Xi to leave him alone. He should at least tell Zhong Xian.
However, Yu Xi was puzzled as to how Zhong Xian knew that Gongsun Ming would not do anything to harm the demon clan for the time being. Zhong Xian was beating Lian Zhen from a distance at the time, and Gongsun Ming wanted to talk to her, so he would definitely do something to prevent Zhong Xian from hearing their conversation.
"Still keeping him?"
Lian Zhen was a little puzzled, but since Zhong Xian said that Gongsun Ming would not do anything to harm the Demon Realm for the time being, there was no need for him to deal with Gongsun Ming. Gongsun Ming was very capable in doing things.
"I understand." Lian Zhen didn't ask any more questions. "Then I'll go back first. Young Master, you still have to worry about the affairs of Xuyun Sect and other immortal sects, otherwise I really won't be able to handle it."
While speaking, he glanced at Yu Xi, wanting to invite Yu Xi to visit his South City when he had time, but Zhong Xian only responded with a single word and took Yu Xi to the library. He disappeared in the blink of an eye, without giving him a chance to speak at all.
But it doesn't matter. Yu Xi is the fourth young master, and he can always invite Yu Xi to play with him. He can also prepare some toys that children like to play with in advance.
Yu Xi watched Lian Zhen go back and couldn't help but ask Zhong Xian, "Brother, what happened to the Immortal Sect?"
Zhong Xian did not hide it from Yu Xi, and said in a relaxed tone, not sounding like he was discussing serious matters:
"Master has done something earth-shattering. Even if the Immortal Sect is cowardly, they can't just ignore it. So they're taking action now, aren't they?
"Led by the newly appointed leader of Xuyun Sect, all the immortal sects have united to slay demons and eliminate evil. They dare not enter the Demon Realm, and are mainly targeting the residents near the Demon Realm. Whether they are mortals or demons, anyone who may have connections with the Demon Realm will be eliminated.
"A lot of people have come to South City to seek refuge. Lian Zhen has been busy for days without a break. Seeing that I don't care about anything, he comes to tell me all this and even tries to annoy me..."
As he spoke, Zhong Xian thought of Lian Zhen's enchanting way of seducing him, and he snorted in disgust.
Although they all have fox blood, Xiao Xier is the cutest!
Yu Xi was worried, "What are you going to do, brother?"
After the great war between immortals and demons a thousand years ago, it is said that nearly half of the entire continent was destroyed. For the next hundred years, no secret realm could be opened, and the smell of blood was so strong that it took decades to dissipate.
Although the Immortal Sect does not intend to provoke a war at present, if they deliberately cause trouble for the Demon Clan, there will definitely be casualties in their dealings.
"If they come to kill us, we will just kill them back."
Zhong Xian said calmly, "Destroy demons and monsters? We'll have to see if they have the ability to do that! I'll strengthen the defenses near the Demon Realm. It wouldn't be a bad idea to let Su Xianyun or Ji Zhi go out and bite people if they have nothing to do."
Ji Zhi looked over blankly, and quickly asked, "What? Someone's targeting my sister again?"
Otherwise, why would he be allowed to go out and bite people again?
Zhong Xian rolled his eyes and didn't want to talk to this idiot.
It is said that a scholar cannot explain himself clearly when he meets a soldier, and there is no difference between meeting a fool and meeting a soldier.
Yu Xi felt a little relieved when he heard Zhong Xian had a solution, but he still had a question in his mind.
"Brother, how did you know that Gongsun Ming has no intention of harming the Demon Realm for the time being?"
"Isn't that what Xiao Xier asked for?" Zhong Xian glanced at Yu Xi jokingly. "The higher you stand, the harder you fall. Xiao Xier is pretty good at imitating me."
Even if Zhong Xian left Yu Xi, his attention would never be diverted from Yu Xi. Therefore, when he discovered that Gongsun Ming was secretly setting up the barrier, he was already on guard.
Gongsun Ming's cultivation level is there. He can guard against others, but he can't guard against him. He can hear everything that is said clearly.
Yu Xi didn't expect that Zhong Xian had heard her entire conversation with Gongsun Ming!
Thinking of how she had to put on airs in front of Gongsun Ming, her face instantly flushed red, even her fluffy white ears felt hot. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could dive into Zhong Xian's arms and never come out.
"Are you upset that I eavesdropped?"
Seeing Yu Xi looking around awkwardly, Zhong Xian couldn't help but move closer to her, kissed her forehead and coaxed her:
"Brother apologizes to you, okay? Don't mind it, Xiao Xier. From now on, you can learn how to speak from me, okay? You can learn whatever you want, Xiao Xier. I like it!"
Hearing this, Yu Xi's embarrassment subsided a little. She just shook her head and said, "I'm not unhappy... Brother, don't you want to ask me how I made Gongsun Ming trust me?"
"Xiao Xi'er, if you want to talk, just say it. If you don't want to talk, I won't ask."
Zhong Xian smiled and said, "Even children need privacy. I respect you."
Seeing that Zhong Xian trusted him so much, Yu Xi felt a complicated feeling, happy but also a little sad.
The feeling of being trusted unconditionally is always reassuring.
She couldn't help but ask, "Brother, aren't you afraid that I will do something that harms the demon world?"
Gongsun Ming trusted her so much, so she must be suspicious in the eyes of outsiders.
Who would have thought that Zhong Xian didn't even think about it, his narrowed eyes now showed an even deeper smile, his handsome face, which was not like that of an ordinary person, was full of envy:
"Xiao Xi'er, if you really want to destroy the Demon Realm, I will help you destroy the Demon Realm, and I will bear all the bad reputation. Do you understand?"
Seeing Yu Xi staring at him in a daze, he rubbed Yu Xi's head and said more happily:
"It doesn't matter what you want to do. Just drive me to do it. I'm a wicked man, full of murderous sins. I don't have anyone to care about except you."
