Chapter 253 Devouring
When Yun Ci woke up the next day, she went out with the team to do a mission.
During their training at the border of the Demon Realm, each disciple spent their time constantly doing tasks and patrolling.
Although the surrounding area was filled with demonic energy, there were also plenty of treasures.
Many ancient plants grow in harsh environments.
Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.
These past few days, people from the demon realm have been constantly coming to provoke us, and friction between the two sides is inevitable.
When the disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect went out on missions, they encountered people from the Demon Realm, who also gave them the cold shoulder and always made sarcastic remarks.
It's best to ridicule these demons and make them repent as soon as possible, otherwise we'll eventually take over their demon realm.
The two sides argued until they were both red in the face and almost came to blows.
They even took action several times.
In just three days, the two sides have fought sixteen times, and neither side is willing to give in.
The den of demons, ten kilometers away.
Hei Zi looked at the Right Protector with his dark eyes, "When are you going back?"
The Right Protector chuckled, his tone teasing, "It seems His Highness the Tenth Prince can't wait to take that little disciple back."
The haters did not refute.
The right protector's left eye flashed red, exactly the same as the eye that had been observing Yun Ci and the others in their room. "I don't think that little disciple from the immortal realm necessarily wants to go back with the Tenth Prince. Besides the Prince, he probably has many other friends."
Kuroko clenched his fist, his eyes filled with obsession. "Mind your own business."
Yun Ci belongs to him.
This time he will hide Yun Ci away, secretly hide him away, and no one can take him away from him.
The Right Protector looked at Hei Zi with a half-smile. Upon closer inspection, there was even a hint of contempt.
The Demon King's children are neither demons nor humans!
However, he also inherited the Demon King's powerful bloodline. It's unknown how talented this Tenth Prince, who has been wandering in the human world for more than ten years, is.
"I will create chaos tomorrow. Your Highness, take that disciple and leave directly. We will meet here then."
"Ah."
Kuroko turned and left, his figure disappearing into the moonlight.
The sky was blood-red, yet the palace was bustling with activity. A gentle breeze carried the mist over the palace, blurring its bright lights.
It seems that the current liveliness is just an illusion. Who knows if there will be an even greater unknown tomorrow that will shatter this illusion of liveliness?
......
"Wow, there are so many iridescent wisteria flowers here. I'm sure I can sell them for a lot of spirit stones when I get back."
"Hehe, this shimmering wisteria is not bad either."
"Be careful, don't get entangled."
"Yun Ci, come and pick the flowers! The wisteria flowers will all be picked clean in no time!"
"Okay! I'll be right there."
Yun Ci watched her senior brothers pick flowers while eating rice balls for breakfast.
“Yun Ci”.
Yun Ci turned around upon hearing the voice and couldn't help but be taken aback. "Hei Zi! What brings you here!"
Yun Ci quickly walked up to Hei Zi, her face filled with worry, "Did you come by yourself?"
Hei Zi cannot cultivate, so it's very dangerous for him to come here.
Before Hei Zi could explain, the Golden Core stage senior brother saw Hei Zi and his face immediately darkened. He strode over and said, "Nonsense! Who gave you permission to come out by yourself! Go back now. Never mind, you can come back with us later."
Yun Ci nodded, "Hei Zi, come back with us later. Don't come by yourself next time, it's too dangerous."
Yun Ci spoke earnestly, her expression very serious. She was genuinely telling Hei Zi not to take any risks, fearing that her friend might encounter danger.
Hei Zi looked at Yun Ci and smiled softly.
His dark eyes swirled with intense blackness. "Okay."
Yun Ci then pulled Hei Zi aside and apologized to the Golden Core stage senior brother. The Golden Core stage senior brother already had a good impression of Yun Ci, so he didn't say anything more, but he did give Hei Zi a few simple scoldings.
Hei Zi lowered his eyes, looking like he was obediently admitting his mistake.
In Yun Ci's eyes, Hei Zi's appearance was very much like a well-behaved student who didn't do well in school making a mistake for the first time and being scolded by the teacher, looking like he was about to cry.
But Yun Ci knew that Hei Zi was not such a fragile person.
Yun Ci quickly finished her breakfast and then dragged Hei Zi over to pick flowers.
Picking the flowers is quite simple; just pluck the brightly colored flowers from the wisteria and put them in a bamboo basket.
Here, the iridescent wisteria hangs down from the sky.
Surrounded by starlight, it was as if the Milky Way had fallen from the heavens.
The wisteria flowers are also very beautiful, with vibrant red blossoms.
The surrounding area smelled wonderful.
Even just standing under this cascading, shimmering wisteria for a short while makes your clothes smell wonderful.
Everyone chatted and laughed, enjoying the flower picking in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Kuroko released the demonic energy in his hand and swung it towards the flowing wisteria.
Gradually, the surrounding fragrance became stronger and stronger.
It's just that everyone has been smelling it for so long that they haven't noticed.
After a while, the Golden Core stage senior brother frowned, "The fragrance of this flower seems to be getting stronger and stronger."
An inner disciple nearby sniffed, "It really seems to be true."
A male cultivator suddenly chuckled and winked at the person next to him, "Don't I smell nice? Smell me."
The male cultivator next to him was startled. "Hey! I'm your brother!"
Yun Ci, “…” stimulated.
The crowd was confused, but respectful.
The atmosphere became pleasant again, but the Golden Core stage senior brother still frowned slightly, still worried.
Kuroko curled the corners of his lips into a smile.
ten.
Nine.
Eight.
seven.
"I feel a bit weak."
six.
five.
"Me too, I feel so sleepy. It's strange, I went to bed quite early last night."
"Me too, I'm going to sleep for a while, wake me up before you leave."
"Hey, you're really sleeping? This is the Demon Realm, are you crazy?!"
Four.
three.
two.
The Golden Core stage senior brother suddenly covered his nose and called out to those around him, "Quickly, get away from these flowers! Quick! Get away from these flowers!"
Everyone was startled, before they could even move.
Bang.
One disciple after another collapsed to the ground, their faces filled with shock.
One.
Kuroko's smile widened and widened as he slowly looked down at the unconscious person in his arms with their eyes closed, his body trembling with excitement.
Hei Zi wrapped one arm around Yun Ci, tightening his grip and then loosening it.
It's as if the person in my arms is an extremely fragile and rare treasure.
Kuroko's lips curved in a pleased smile.
It's his.
It's completely his now.
Hei Zi picked up Yun Ci and stepped into the deeper fog...
The moon-white disciple robes blended into the gray disciple robes, and the two figures were swallowed by the darkness.
disappeared.
Yun Ci was completely unaware of this.
The Golden Core stage senior brother lay on the ground, using all his strength to lift his head, squinting his eyes, only to see a figure from behind before collapsing.
