The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2234 - 2231: Humans and Demons

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King heard this, and couldn’t help but smile awkwardly, scratching his head, and said: "Brother Ye, that was just playing around with Cao Yi, that girl is very naive, just teasing her a bit."

Saying this, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King also turned to glance at Cao Yi in the distance, who looked wary.

Ye Xuan glanced at the Tianchi Xiaopeng King, and then looked towards Cao Yi in the distance.

Feeling Ye Xuan’s gaze, Cao Yi was startled, but remembering that senior, namely the Holy Daughter hidden on the Xuanhuang Emperor Road, her warning made her dare not show disrespect to Ye Xuan.

Yet for Ye Xuan, who killed her senior brother, it was impossible for her to show complete reverence.

So Cao Yi quickly shifted her gaze, pretending not to see Ye Xuan.

That scene made Ye Xuan smile inexplicably.

Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze, looked at the Tianchi Xiaopeng King, and said calmly: "Have you gotten close with her?"

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King scratched his head repeatedly, smiling foolishly: "No, not close, I just feel a bit fond of her."

Ye Xuan’s mouth slightly curled: "That’s pretty good."

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King suddenly said seriously: "Brother Ye, if you think she is an eyesore, then I won’t like her anymore."

"After the Emperor Road, I, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King, have acknowledged you as the destined master."

"I am willing to follow you forever!"

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King bowed deeply to Ye Xuan, very solemnly.

Ye Xuan smiled lightly and said: "If that’s the case, then cultivate well. Don’t let me become an Emperor and find you still in the Great Saint Realm."

Ye Xuan didn’t exactly dislike the Tianchi Xiaopeng King.

But if his strength can’t keep up, he isn’t qualified to become Ye Xuan’s subordinate.

"Rest assured, although I can’t catch up with your pace, I definitely won’t stay in the Great Saint Realm forever!"

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King straightened up, speaking with excitement.

Because he knew Ye Xuan’s words were akin to a soft agreement.

As long as he worked harder, he could follow Ye Xuan!

This matter, he had been contemplating for a long time!

Even though he had followed Ye Xuan for a while on the Emperor Road, he actually understood that back then Ye Xuan didn’t really care about him.

But now it’s different, this is a true agreement.

"Go then."

Ye Xuan waved his hand and turned to enter the Qingming Cave.

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King waved his hand, but upon seeing the direction Ye Xuan headed, his face instantly changed: "Young Master, are you heading to the Qingming Cave?"

Unfortunately, Ye Xuan did not answer the Tianchi Xiaopeng King’s question, directly disappearing into the Qingming Cave.

Seeing that scene, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King was stunned on the spot.

Damn it, the Qingming Cave is in a closed state, in this situation the Qingming Cave is untouchable!

Even a Quasi-Emperor Realm cultivator would fall!

"Hmph, this guy finally shows some self-awareness, knowing that being alive is a trouble."

Cao Yi in the distance was initially startled by the scene, then snorted lightly.

But her words were immediately heard by the Tianchi Xiaopeng King, who suddenly looked at Cao Yi coldly.

Cao Yi was startled and then glared back, "What are you doing?"

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King said coldly: "Don’t think I have a bit of a liking for you so you can dare speak ill of the Master in front of me."

"Do you believe I’ll twist your head off?"

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King was extremely cold.

These words directly made Cao Yi dumbfounded.

She looked at the serious Tianchi Xiaopeng King, her pretty face blushing.

This Tianchi Xiaopeng King...

Likes her?!

What on earth is going on!?

Cao Yi felt strangely ashamed and annoyed, and retorted coldly: "What nonsense are you talking?"

"You’re a demon, I’m a human."

"Our clans are naturally opposed!"

Cao Yi shouted coldly.

"What a load of nonsense." The Tianchi Xiaopeng King laughed mockingly: "Do I have to care about who you are or what clan you belong to just because I like you?"

Cao Yi was directly stunned.

This Tianchi Xiaopeng King...

"Alright, alright, I’ll let you off this time, but if you dare speak ill of the Master again, see if I won’t deal with you."

The Tianchi Xiaopeng King waved impatiently, then added: "Moreover, your senior brother’s death can’t be blamed on the Master, I have news that it was your Evergreen Immortal Sect’s people who recklessly sought trouble with the Master, and were slain by him."

"In this world, the strong are revered."

"This is survival of the fittest."

With that, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King spread his wings, transformed into his true form, and disappeared from Cao Yi’s sight.

As he flew, his heart pounded.

Although he seemed completely unconcerned while saying those things, in reality, he was extremely nervous.

If the Master hadn’t said, "That’s pretty good", he truly wouldn’t have dared to express his feelings so openly.

He wondered if Cao Yi liked him?

What if she doesn’t, then what?

Eat her?

Or twist her head off.

Hmm.

He felt that was pretty good.

If she doesn’t like him, then let there be destruction!

Huehuehuehue!

At the same time.

Upon hearing the Tianchi Xiaopeng King’s words, Cao Yi’s expression was somewhat complex.

She looked in the direction the Tianchi Xiaopeng King departed, momentarily unsure what to say.

"An arrogant smelly bird!"

"I spit!"

After thinking for a while, Cao Yi bitterly muttered.

But for some reason, there was a trace of other feelings in her heart.

In fact.

The two of them had no prior conflict.

But during the latter half of the battles on the Emperor Road, when she saw the Tianchi Xiaopeng King besieged by peerless geniuses from other worlds, she couldn’t bear it; out of the camaraderie of being from the same Qing State, she chose to help.

However, Cao Yi’s strength was limited, not only failing to save the Tianchi Xiaopeng King but instead placing herself in danger.

Fortunately, at the last moment, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King broke through his bottleneck, his power skyrocketing, turning the tables.

In the end, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King saved Cao Yi.

And he said: You idiot, I was intentionally suppressed by them to comprehend the life-and-death crisis and thus break through, you almost got me killed.

Cao Yi was momentarily speechless.

But she was very displeased with the Tianchi Xiaopeng King’s attitude of not showing gratitude.

Yet later when encountering crises, the Tianchi Xiaopeng King helped her several times.

Although the Tianchi Xiaopeng King looked at her with a mocking attitude every time, driving her mad.

But now upon careful reflection.

Maybe it was then that a subtle change occurred.

Thinking of this, Cao Yi’s pretty face blushed again, lightly patting her cheeks, she whispered: "Wake up, Cao Yi, this Tianchi Xiaopeng King is a demon from the Demon Race, opposed to my Human Clan, and he follows Ye Xuan, the villain who killed senior brother, how can you believe his sweet talk?"

Although she said this, deep down Cao Yi had a different thought.

Humans and demons opposed?

If that were truly the case, then the Xuanhuang Great World would leave no place for the Demon Race.

As for Ye Xuan, the villain who killed her senior brother?

He is someone even that senior respects and admires; what can she even comment on?

Carrying these complex emotions, Cao Yi returned to the sect to enter seclusion.

As for the affairs of these two, Ye Xuan is completely unaware, nor does he have any interest.

At this moment.

Ye Xuan has already entered the Qingming Cave.

Qingming Cave.

Rumored to be the ancient residence of the Qingming Immortal King from the Ancient Immortal Realm...
