Chapter 194
The bird had lost sight of Zhong Xian, so Gu An did not plan to return the same way.
He suspected that Zhong Xian had noticed something was wrong and would stop him on his way back.
He no longer trusted Zhong Xian.
He looked towards the Demon Palace again. This time, after he withdrew his gaze, he looked around and finally came to the edge of the rock wall.
The howling wind blew through the mountains and across the rocks, blowing up his clothes.
He looked at the abyss beneath his feet, calmly took off his shoes, stretched out his hands, and began to climb up the steep rock wall without any protection.
This was not his first time climbing a mountain with his bare hands, and his movements were obviously more skillful than some adults.
When he returned to the top of the mountain, his palms were already bleeding from being rubbed by the rough rock walls, and when he pressed them to the ground, they left faint blood marks.
But he did not stop for a moment, instead he accelerated and ran towards the Demon Palace.
The fox, the fox is right there—
Who would have thought that at this moment, his collar was tightened and he was lifted up all of a sudden. When he looked up, he saw Zhong Xian with his head slightly lowered, looking at him with a smile.
"You didn't really think I'd leave, leaving the birds staring at me?"
Zhong Xian's face was hidden from the light, so his true emotions could not be seen.
He simply said in a calm voice, "How could a little creature that could come all the way from the wilderness by itself be a simple and harmless little sheep? I just didn't expect that the goose demon could lie."
Zhong Xian never left the vicinity of the Demon Palace.
He could see Gu An's obsession.
What does it mean to have come here from the wilderness? It is something that an average adult might not be able to accomplish in ten or twenty years.
How could I give up so easily after coming here?
Gu An clenched his teeth.
He was thinking about how to use the poison on Zhong Xian, but who would have thought that Zhong Xian suddenly let go of his hand.
He fell heavily to the ground and didn't get up for a long time.
Looking up, I saw Zhong Xian wiping his palms in disdain, then walking ahead with a restrained expression and saying:
"Follow me, I'll take you to the Demon Palace."
what?
Gu An didn't expect that Zhong Xian didn't drive him away, but instead took him to the Demon Palace.
"Really? You really want to take me there?"
He hurriedly got up and stumbled after her, chasing after Zhong Xian and asking anxiously, "Why? Weren't you very resistant to me approaching the Demon Palace before?"
Zhong Xian was indeed very resistant.
He now wanted to go back in time and slap himself twice for saving Gu An.
For no reason, he picked up the thing of someone who tried to steal Xiao Xier, and asked someone to help this guy get close to Xiao Xier. Is he sick?
Just now he was considering whether to kick Gu An off the cliff.
But seeing Gu An fearlessly climbing up the rock wall, not intending to stop even with his hands covered in blood, he was at least certain that Gu An really wanted to find the fox he had been looking for.
Xiao Xier has been unable to remember her past.
But as long as Gu An can confirm that Xiao Xier is the fox he is looking for, they will be able to find clues about Xiao Xier's past.
If Xiao Xier was a nine-tailed fox demon in the past, why is she a half-demon now?
Who are her parents?
What did she experience during the time she spent here from the wilderness?
Maybe Gu An can help him find the answer.
"I don't want to help you, but I want to understand my sister better."
Zhong Xian stared straight ahead at the Demon Palace, thinking that Yu Xi was recuperating there, and softened his gaze slightly as he said:
"The only person in the Demon Palace currently associated with foxes is my sister, but she's half-demon, half fox, half-demon, and doesn't actually fit your description."
When Gu An heard this, he thought Zhong Xian suspected that he might have recognized the wrong person, so he said seriously: "I won't recognize the wrong person, and a wild goose won't recognize its own home by mistake."
"But you just lied to me."
Zhong Xian sneered.
He didn’t take Gu An’s words about his family to heart before, but why does he feel so uncomfortable now?
Xiao Xier is his family, not Gu An’s!
"I can apologize for this."
Gu An was honest and didn't care about his face at all. He apologized directly and gently:
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you, and I did leave at that time, so it can't be considered a lie. Ultimately, your subordinates were too weak to guard against me, and they couldn't even keep an eye on a child like me."
Hearing Gu An apologizing without feeling guilty at all and even with some righteousness, Zhong Xian glanced at him and suddenly wanted to see how thick-skinned this kid was.
However, they were almost at the Demon Palace at this time, so he only said:
"Xiao Xi'er is not feeling well now and is resting. You can't disturb her, and she can't communicate with you, so I only allow you to watch her from a distance. If you make any unusual movements, I will kill you."
Gu An nodded seriously.
It was already a pleasant surprise that Zhong Xian allowed him to see the fox, so he would not ask for too much for the time being.
At this time, in the Demon Palace, Luo Chunxi and Su Xianyun were guarding Yu Xi.
Yu Xi has a slight fever at the moment, his face is flushed red, and he feels hot and cold at times, and he looks very uncomfortable.
Luo Chunxi concentrated on using magic to help her body regulate its temperature, while Su Xianyun was so anxious that he was pacing around the room.
After the puppet brought the medicine in his room, he immediately prepared the medicine at Luo Chunxi's place, trying to heal Yu Xi's body as soon as possible and make him get better.
While Su Xianyun was concentrating on preparing the medicine, Luo Chunxi suddenly noticed something.
She stood up and rushed out the door, and saw Zhong Xian bringing a goose demon over.
Zhong Xian didn't expect Luo Chunxi to suddenly appear. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Luo Chunxi speak first:
"Where did you find this?"
Zhong Xian was stunned, turned around to look at Gu An and said:
"He comes from the wilderness..."
Before he could finish his words, Luo Chunxi had already raised her hand, pulled Gu An in front of her, and lifted him up easily:
"This is no ordinary goose demon."
Zhong Xian thought Luo Chunxi was talking about Gu An's wings. "His wings are indeed broken. He is a broken goose."
"Remnant Goose?"
Luo Chunxi smiled: "No, it's the evil goose, the evil goose that can only soar in despair."
Evil goose?
Zhong Xian's eyes opened slightly, and his face became more mysterious.
Among the goose monsters, there will be a special kind of goose, which is extremely rare.
The wings of this goose are more fragile than those of ordinary geese and are easily injured, and they are unable to fly even when they reach adulthood.
But when the flock of geese dies, only one goose can escape, and that is the bad goose.
When everyone around it is dying in despair, the evil goose is able to gain the strength to spread its wings and fly. It is a goose destined to be alone.
Luo Chunxi looked at Zhong Xian again: "Why did you bring him here?"
Zhong Xian said, "He should be here to look for Xiao Xi'er."
"Looking for Yu Xi?" Luo Chunxi looked at Gu An and said thoughtfully, "Did he come from the wilderness?"
Gu An had guessed Luo Chunxi's identity the moment he saw her, so he responded respectfully:
"Yes."
Gu An originally thought that the Demon Lord would be even harder to talk to, but he didn't expect that after Luo Chunxi heard his response, he simply turned around and went back into the house and said:
"Then come in."
