The moment he had remembered her, all the feelings that were sealed inside of him gushed out like a destroyed dam. Although they only met for one day, the moment he took her, he knows he already had no chance of escaping from Liu Muxiao.
He spent several days thinking about her. And during these days, worry, missing, affection, absence and most of all guilt, slowly consumed him. In the end, these feelings for her slowly turned into shape.
He missed her.
He really missed her so much that in the first week, whenever he closed his eyes, he could always hear her voice calling “Wushuang! Wushuang!”, but when he opened his eyes, there was nothing.
That was when he began to hate her.
… …
In these years, all Allen had dreamed of was that one day Liu Muxiao was able to stand in front of him again.
He could touch her if he just held out his arm.
Finally, that wished came true. She had returned, standing in front of him again like he had dreamed.
But when they met again, she looked at him like a stranger at most, he only sees him as Wushuang, her friend.
If she was finally here, should he not be glad?
But Allen realized sadly he could not think like that.
He cared very much.
Huh… I’m really an idiot.
Just why am I acting like this?
Allen commanded himself to stop thinking further about this issue.
Where this was no longer an illusion, and she was really standing in front of him now, so what more could he still want?
She was here. That was what’s important!
Let it be like this, Allen thought.
Let the past rest forever, no need to care about it anymore.
Because he was very tired!
“… …” Liu Muxiao stared at Allen with her large eyes wide open. Her expression had frozen but her face was red.
Stay with him? Liu Muxiao stared blankly and speechlessly as she never thought he would ask this sort of question.
Is that really needed to ask…?
How long has she been waiting for this moment?
With tears running down her cheeks, she nodded. “Un, I will go! Wherever you go, I will follow!”
Xiao Shuang, you always ask it but I couldn’t answer but, you know, your father’s here…
It’s been a long journey but he’s finally here!
Wait for us, we will finally be together again… this time for sure!
Allen smiled happily. His heart felt warm and exposed a relieved smile.
He stretched out his arms, hugged her and rested her head on his shoulder.
“You better not go back on your words.”
The warm embrace seemed like also wanting to erase the last little bit of dark thoughts in his heart.
“Un!” Liu Muxiao answered. Then she asked weakly, “Do you forgive me…?”
As she asked this, Liu Muxiao no longer had that holy appearance of not interested in with mundane affairs but had a peculiar charm of a woman.
“… It’s strange feeling, really…” Allen smiled wryly.
Liu Muxiao felt the same and the two smiled at each other again.
With the veil cast away, Allen could see her expression, particular her smile that was akin to a small flower blooming in a rainy field.
That was the gentlest smile, Allen had ever seen from Liu Muxiao. Seeing that smile, Allen felt like forgiving is certainly gives a strange feeling but it certainly gives people some peace of mind.
[ Sometimes you forgive people simply because you still want them in your life! ]
… …
With Liu Muxiao’s issue finally being resolved, obviously, the topic shifted to the unknown woman quietly following them.
Allen turned his head and looked at the woman.
“Now then, it’s your turn.”
The woman let out a sigh. It’s not from being discontented but from giving up. Her actions really backfired on her this time… who told her to get curious about a beast tamer who managed to tame outstanding beasts like the ones she had seen?
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Truthfully, she came out and approaches him because she dreaded his unknown power that could tame monsters in that level. In fact, she was already a Lv7 fox demon with five tails so she was confident in her power.
However, most of the monsters Allen had tamed were quite strong compared to normal monsters. Even the huge white snake that was always following him was terrifying compared to her, so to speak.
She felt as if she was always being watched the moment they entered the forest. Not only one but she felt as if two people were watching her every movement. If she didn’t guess wrong, it was none other than, that black clothed human youth and that huge white scaled snake.
That is the reason why she came out and tried to befriend him but she never expected for Allen’s incredible yet nonsensical strength. That really blown her mind away.
Being called, she raised her head and looked at the black clothed youth. Without showing it on her face, her vigilance was actually fully activated.
The beautiful woman’s eyes flashed with a seductive look as she took a step forward.
“What is it?” She smiled while lifting her arms and raising those wonderful jade bunnies in front of her chest.
“Don’t tell me, you’re going to do bad things to me?”
She split her legs slightly and exposed the most enticing but unspeakable things.
"Though, if it’s you I wouldn’t mind."
The beautiful woman’s voice was charming and seductive. It sounded like decadent moaning which could easily stir the desires of others.
Seeing her acting like this, Tang Yu and Sun Lingling and even Madam White couldn’t help but frown in annoyance.
What is this woman doing in front of them?
Was she actually trying to entice Allen in front of them? Is she seeking death?
Liu Muxiao was rather straightforward. Seeing the woman’s enticement, her eagle-like eyes narrowed and a cold killing intent immediately surged. She was like a sword out of its scabbard.
But the beautiful woman ignored them. After all, apart from Madam White and Allen, she was extremely confident to win against the three human female.
Watching her act like this, Allen could not help but roll his eyes and frown.
He calmly did not look at her but never show the slightest bit of fascination, nor did he deliberately turn his head away.
Allen’s expression suddenly changed, suddenly becoming incomparably ice-cold, and with his eyes also seemingly frozen, he coldly mocked: “You are a clever person, Lady but why must you do such stupid things?”
!?
“Cut out your disgusting Charming Magic. That kind of level only works for people with weaker mental strength. In front of me, it’s child’s play!” Allen looked at her with a smile yet not a smile.
The beautiful woman’s eyes widened in shock and her body slightly trembled.
But it was indeed true. Even if her level is higher than him, Allen’s will and fortitude are already far different than any normal human possess.
He can still even stand his own against Alkrasha’s charm whose power and strength is heaven and earth compared to her, how could he be affected by it?
Wouldn’t it be insulting towards the infamous Insect Queen?
Furthermore, their power levels only differed by much. To him, this level of charm is nothing!
Allen said with a sneer, “If you did it again, then don’t blame me, Ye Wushuang for being impolite!”
Allen half squinted his eyes, and his body suddenly emitted bone piercing cold killing intent.
The beautiful woman instantly paled and she trembled from head to toe. And immediately her charming magic that could cause people to be bewitched instantly disappeared without a trace.
Now looking at Allen, her expression was somewhat dejected, although she knew that the black clothed youth was someone that was not so easy to seduce, she still couldn’t help but want to try, because she wanted to have a strong person like Allen to become her servant.
But unfortunately, this human was truly unfathomable; she wasn’t able to charm him, much less control him.
He will not kill me right, She clenched both of her hands, as she was absolutely terrified seeing Allen’s ice-cold eyes.
The woman’s complexion turned blank, then lightly sighing, she said with a bitter smile: “Please forgive Meihua, Meihua swears, hereafter I will never use Charming Magic in front of you.”
“Meihua? So your name is Meihua?”
“Yes, this lowly maid is surnamed Li, given name Meihua with the character for Beauty and flower.” The beautiful woman named Li Meihua bowed as she introduced herself.
“You became somewhat humble~”
Hearing Allen, Li Meihua smiled bitterly, “I ashamed of my early behavior. I sincerely hope that young monarch wouldn’t mind it…”
Beastmen are more straightforward than humans.
Li Meihua had already seen Allen’s unbelievable powers and knows that no matter what she does, she would never be able to win against him. If she still acted arrogantly at this moment, she would be a pig with no intelligence.
Furthermore, Allen’s ice-cold gaze that seems to show that he can kill her any minute greatly terrified the girl.
“Whatever, to make no bones about it,” Allen began in a strong tone. “What I want to ask is that, do you know about two fox demons named Li Tian and Li Lian…?”
Li Meihua was dumbfounded, and her eyes flashed with surprise. “Li Tian? Li Lian? How do you know about them?!”
“So you did know…” Allen softly smiled and said.
“Where are they?” He asked in as placatory a manner as possible, “I’m looking for them.”
“What for?”
“None of your concern.”
Li Meihua thought for a while and finally answered. “Indeed I know of them. In fact, we are from the same tribe.” After pausing for a bit, Li Meihua continued. “However, they are now expelled from the tribe.”
“What?” Allen’s voice broke in.
Li Meihua was dismayed to see the icy hardness of the youth’s eyes.
The change in the atmosphere suddenly terrified her, after all, not only one but he could feel three killing intent focusing on her.
Looking around, she realized that aside from the woman beside the youth and the huge snake, the other human female was also looking at him with grim expressions.
What happened? What is this for?
Allen drew a deep breath, “What happened for them to end up like that?”
Allen spoke, feeling himself grow angry in spite of his determination to remain cool.
But this was certainly weird. From what he had remembered, in the previous life, Li Tian and Li Lian weren’t expelled from their tribe. So what’s going on here?
Li Meihua blanked, then bitterly smiling, she lowered her voice: “I don’t know the clear reason but suddenly a divine oracle appeared within our tribe. She had prophesized that Li Tian and Li Lian would follow a demon, leading the destruction of our clan.”
“A divine oracle?” Allen frowned.
“That’s right. The divine oracle predicted various things and saving our tribe several times. So the Oracle was already proven trustworthy.” Li Meihua spoke with a hint of admiration in his voice. Maybe due to her admiring the Oracle, she completely failed to notice the growing anger from the three people around her.
“So the tribe decided to expel the two foxes…”
Before she could finish her words, Allen suddenly appeared in front of her and grabbed her neck.
“What the, you……” Li Meihua was about to rain down the curses, but seeing the ice-cold eyes of the youth, she involuntarily swallowed the remaining words.
“Demon? That Oracle seems like she possesses quite a bit of gut…” Allen said coldly.
Demon? Is that oracle talking about him?
With what Li Meihua had said, it’s not difficult to assume that the Oracle she was talking about was none other than a returner. After all, there was no such person in their previous lives.
It would be absurd if they think she just suddenly popped out from nowhere.
Even Tang Yu and Sun Lingling never thought of that possibility.
90% percent possibility that it was a returnee and a person that doesn’t think well of Allen.
“I really wanted to meet her now, to see who this bastard thinks she is!” Allen said sharply. His grip tightened and Li Meihua felt as if she was suffocating. Behind her, five fox tails suddenly appeared and on top of her head, fox ears sprouted.
She tried to struggle but Allen’s strength is just too much compared to her and she couldn’t get away.
She was already losing consciousness when, fortunately, “Wushuang.” A voice called out.
