Shen Yanxiao nodded her head. The five higher demons left to do their own things, leaving only her and Du Lang.
“What did Big Brother Du wants to say?” Shen Yanxiao asked.
Du Lang looked at the departing backs of the five demons. He slowly retracted his gaze and looked at the young girl who had not yet fully grown with a complicated expression.
On this day, he received a lot of stimulation. The demons he saw today were more than the number he had seen in the first half of his life.
“What happened between you and these demons?” Du Lang hesitated again and again but still asked the question in the end. It was very difficult for him to imagine such a situation wherein demons and human beings were peacefully coexisting. In Radiance Continent, these two races were absolute opposites and they were very incompatible.
“What happened between us is nothing. We just have reached certain agreements. You can rest assured that the demons of The Rising Sun City will not attack you.” Shen Yanxiao said with a smile.
However, Du Lang’s mood did not relax because of her answer.
“You should know the relationship between demons and humans. How can they agree with us? The higher demons are very smart. Right now, they fear the strength of the three Mythological Beasts and so they don’t dare to oppose you, but in private, it is very likely that they were planning to do something that will harm you.”
Shen Yanxiao shook her head.
“Big Brother Du, they will not, believe me.” She was not good enough to speak about the three plants. This thing was related to the demons of The Rising Sun City, and it was also related to the restoration of Xiu’s strength and the unlocking of her seal. If it was not a last resort, she did not want too many people to know about it.
“Sigh.” Seeing that he could not persuade Shen Yanxiao, Du Lang could only sigh. But secretly, he decided to let other people pay attention to the movements of the demons to prevent any accidents.
Seeing the sun going down, a group of people went back to the hall. They sat nervously on the straw beds placed by the demons.
With food in their hands, they were actually eating without tasting the food.
Shen Yanxiao silently observed the reactions of this group of people. The villagers with Uncle Jiu had little psychological pressure because they did not have much knowledge of the demons.
It was the people of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps who were very uneasy about the current situation.
Shen Yanxiao sat in the corner and propped up her chin. Well, she actually had already expected this.
However, she believed that Du Lang and the others would be able to accept the alliance with the demons one day. Because in the future, this would be the situation in The Rising Sun, wherein the demons and humans coexisted.
‘You are doing this to challenge their nerves.’ Xiu, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth in the dead of the night.
“I don’t want to, but I think Du Lang and the others will accept them because they can all accept that I am a Warlock. They are not the kind of people who are controlled by secular ideas.” Shen Yanxiao hugged her legs and turn her head sideways, making her knees a pillow, watching the clouds in the sky.
In the Barren Land, the dark clouds that persisted for many years blocked the sky above, making one unable to see the stars.
“Xiu, you say, can humans and demons coexist?”
‘At least until today, this kind of thing hasn’t happened.’
“But I think demons and human beings are not enemies. Demons eat humans because that’s the only way they can survive. But I can now provide their real food. They don’t have to continue eating humans.” The pattern of nature was naturally controlled by the law of nature. Once the laws of this pattern were found, anything could change.
‘Do you think that humans will put down their prejudice against the demons after so many years?’
“It will be put down gradually.” Shen Yanxiao was already sleepy, her eyelids slowly drooped down, and she gradually entered the dreamland.
TEASER
On the morning of the second day, Shen Yanxiao was awakened by a shrill scream.
When she opened her eyes, she saw that Vicious Wolf was sitting on the ground in horror, staring at a lower demon squatting by his bedside.
In the lower demon’s hands were several strange-looking fruits. He looked at the wailing Vicious Wolf in confusion. He hesitated before putting the fruits down and then turned around and ran out.
“Scared me to death!” Vicious Wolf patted his chest with a lingering fear. Anyone who opened his eyes in the early morning and saw a demon in front of his eyes would not be calm at all.
“Heh, people are actually giving you something to eat.” Demon Wolf smirked and teased Vicious Wolf as he looked at the fruits beside his bed.
Shen Yanxiao: For freak sake, if you’re going to court or go lovey dobby, at least do it quietly or outside!
Vicious Wolf: *blush* we’re not-
Shen Yanxiao: Don’t you know how important sleep is for a growing child! Now if it don’t grow just watch if I don’t kill you!
Demon Wolf: Growing child… and what do you mean by “it wont grow”?
Shen Yanxiao: Hmp! now then, if you let me. I’m going back to sleep, good night! *sleeps back*
Vicious Wolf and Demon Wolf: …
