"I'm not really sure about the specifics!" Xiang Xueer replied, feeling confused.
As a result, Duck quickly leaned in and said, "I know, I know! That Luring Demon Pot was found by Ling Zhu when she went to Bai Ling Mountain. I saw her use this Luring Demon Pot to capture the Black Widow!"
Black Widow? It seems like a type of spider mentioned in textbooks. Xiang Xueer finally understood that Ling Zhu thought she had stumbled upon a treasure and wanted to use it to find her husband, but ended up failing.
"However, what kind of Demon is Ling Zhu?" Lian Cheng Xue expressed great interest. "Duck is a monster and can't go to Bai Ling Mountain, but Ling Zhu can go there, which makes me curious."
Duck wore a mysterious expression and wiggled a finger in the air. "No, no, no! Ling Zhu is not a monster; she is Bodhi Fruit. In our terms, that means Celestial Fruit!"
"Celestial Fruit? Can it be eaten?" Xiang Xueer’s eyes lit up; this was indeed what she cared about the most. Platypus nodded. "Sister, when you were poisoned last time, Ling Zhu used her blood to help you drink it, and it actually helped alleviate the spread of the poison!"
Ah? So Ling Zhu had done that before. Although she was forced by the Heart Demon, Xiang Xueer felt that Ling Zhu's nature was still kind.
"Poor woman!" Xiang Xueer sighed, feeling genuine sympathy.
Li Yunyang's face darkened as he turned to glare at Xiang Xueer, still angry about being excluded by them. "Hey, didn't you dislike Ling Zhu? Why do you suddenly feel sorry for her?"
Xiang Xueer shot Li Yunyang an annoyed glare. "I was suspicious of her motives before, but after all, she saved my life. This much I can clearly distinguish!"
"Oh?" Li Yunyang rolled his eyes. "If you can distinguish so clearly, then help her find her husband! Don't just talk big!"
Is Li Yunyang deliberately trying to provoke me today? How dare he challenge me in front of others! Hmph! Trying to use reverse psychology? I'm not falling for it. Helping Ling Zhu find her husband would definitely involve dealing with the Heart Demon, and that guy is not easy to handle.
As soon as Li Yunyang finished speaking, someone nearby chimed in to add fuel to the fire. Lian Cheng Xue immediately agreed with Li Yunyang's idea: "That's right! Brother Li is right; we should indeed help Ling Zhu!"
Qingtian turned to look at Xiang Xueer and could see her hesitation. He smiled and said, "This matter isn't so simple; our opponent is the Heart Demon. It's cunning and much harder to deal with than the Black Dragon Saint Lord!"
Reading (online): "That's right!" Duck immediately agreed with Lan Ran Qingtian's words and drew a line in the sand, standing on Xiang Xueer's side. "Don't just stand there talking without feeling any pain; if I have to go against the Heart Demon, my legs feel weak just thinking about it."
"Is this Heart Demon really that terrifying?" Lian Cheng Xue turned to look at the others with a hint of surprise. Qingtian nodded, "The Heart Demon was one of the most capable generals under the Demon Lord, also known as the Strategist. Not only is his combat ability impressive, but his command skills are also remarkable!"
"Huh? Is he stronger than my elder sister?" Duck blinked, while Xiang Xueer frowned and touched her chest. The Witch was still inside her, and the Heart Demon was stirring, secretly plotting something: "We are in the light, while they are in the dark; we really don't have the advantage!"
"This matter should be considered carefully!" After saying this, Xiang Xueer turned and left. Her mind was filled with thoughts about the Heart Demon's plans and how the seal of the Demon Lord could be broken. It seemed she would have to wait until Ling Zhu woke up to ask her; perhaps she could find out something from her.
In the middle of the night, Xiang Xueer sat on the roof of the inn, looking up at the moon. Suddenly, Lan Ran Qingtian leaped onto the roof as well. Seeing her lost in thought, he walked over and patted her shoulder: "What are you thinking about?"
"Qingtian, it's you?" Xiang Xueer turned to glance at Qingtian, putting on a smile: "It's nothing; I just came out to sit for a bit because I was bored."
Qingtian was a thoughtful man. He turned to sit beside her: "Ever since you cured the poison of the Miasma, you've become a bit more introspective. Has something happened that you can tell me about?"
Only Li Yunyang knew about the identity of the Witch, and aside from that, Duck probably understood some things too. Qingtian and Lian Cheng Xue were completely unaware. Should I tell them?
Xiang Xueer glanced at Qingtian. If she told them, perhaps they could all research together and figure out what the Heart Demon was really planning. However, she had too many worries in her heart.
"Qingtian!" Xiang Xueer grabbed his hand, her eyes fixed intently on him. This sudden action made Lan Ran Qingtian's heart race, and he swallowed hard.
"W-what's wrong?" Qingtian stammered, feeling a jolt from her warm hand that sent electricity through him. This feeling was strange.
"I-I...!" In her mind, two voices were debating whether or not to reveal the truth. After a moment, she looked at him eagerly: "Qingtian, how do you see me in your heart?"
"Huh?" Lan Ran Qingtian suddenly felt his ears heat up, thinking she was going to ask about that kind of thing, leaving him completely unprepared.
That day in the Illusionary Forest, he had been dazed by the effects of the Aphrodisiac Flower, leading to some embarrassing fantasies. Now those memories flooded back—her slender waist, warm breath, and those soft lips...
Seeing him sweating profusely and looking dazed, Xiang Xueer reached out to touch his forehead: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, no!" Qingtian swatted Xiang Xueer's hand away. Oh no, his mind was filled with inappropriate thoughts—wanting to hold her, wanting to kiss her, wanting more, so much more...
He hurriedly tried to get up, but his foot slipped on a tile from the roof, causing him to lose his balance. Seeing this, Xiang Xueer quickly grabbed him, and they ended up tumbling down together from the roof.
With a loud thud, they landed heavily on the ground. A scream pierced the air as Xiang Xueer opened her eyes, puzzled. Why didn't it hurt? She looked down and realized that Qingtian had become her cushion.
"Ah!" He grimaced in pain; that fall was quite hard. Lying on the ground, he couldn't move. Xiang Xueer was sitting on his waist and saw his pained expression. She quickly leaned over and asked, "Hey, Qingtian, are you okay?"
A man lying on the ground with a woman straddling his waist—how ambiguous could that be? Qingtian instantly turned as red as an apple. Wasn't this twenty-year-old man a bit too innocent for ancient times?
Xiang Xueer didn't realize the implications of their position. Looking at Qingtian lying beneath her, his face flushed and pained, she thought he must have hurt himself badly. She hurriedly began to check him over, from his face to his chest and then to his arms: "It's okay, it's okay, you're not injured!"
Feeling embarrassed, Qingtian pushed Xiang Xueer away slightly: "I'm fine; you should get up!"
Huh? It was only then that Xiang Xueer realized she was still sitting on him. She quickly rolled off, and Qingtian stood up, still blushing. Xiang Xueer finally understood the situation and burst into laughter while covering her mouth: "Oh my, Qingtian! You're an adult now, yet you're still so shy!"
"You little girl! You just love making these kinds of jokes!" Qingtian replied irritably. Xiang Xueer immediately felt mischievous and wanted to tease him further.
She smiled seductively as she leaned closer and touched his face: "Oh my, look at you; your face is so hot."
Then she slowly moved her hand toward Qingtian's chest: "Oh dear, is your heart racing? Do you feel a certain emptiness in your body? No wait, emptiness is for women; men should feel something else."
