Waking up from the darkness, Huai Zhu slowly opened his eyes and found that he was no longer kneeling in front of the main house, but lying on a warm bed.
"I'm..."
Huai Zhu looked at the familiar things in the room and felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes again.
The sudden disaster at home made the young girl, who was only in her twenties, unable to accept it for a moment. When she thought about her homework, Qin Lan, and even her father's corpse, her heart ached so much that she could hardly breathe.
"Creak…"
The door opened gently, and Yu Ping was seen carrying a bowl of porridge as she carefully walked in. When she saw Huai Zhu waking up on the bed, her eyes lit up slightly, and she hurriedly came to the bedside and softly said,
"Miss, you're awake. Come and quickly have some porridge. You and Miss Qin Lan have both been chilled by the wind.”
With Yu Ping's support, Huai Zhu gently got up and asked Yu Ping.
"I remember that I was at the main house. Now..."
"It was Young Master Lin who brought you and Miss Qin Lan back.”
In Huai Zhu's mind, the last scene before he fainted suddenly flashed past.
It was a figure dressed in white, stepping on the bright sunlight.
After eating some porridge and taking a nap, Huai Zhu finally recovered from the cold. Seeing that Yuping had fallen asleep, she put on her coat and pushed open the door.
It was already late at night outside. Under the bright moonlight, an elegant figure was like a fairy, waving the three-foot-long blade in his hand.
The cold light was cold and threatening.
Sensing the movement, Lin Tian drew a sword in his hand and gently sheathed it. He walked towards Huai Zhu.
"I need a map."
Lin Tian's expression was indifferent as he went straight to the point.
Huai Zhu's words of gratitude were blocked by Lin Tian. A bitter smile appeared on her beautiful and gentle face as she said softly.
"Things like maps have long been burned to ashes in the fire last night. When Qin Lan and I arrived, it was already too late.”
Hearing Huai Zhu's words, Lin Tian frowned slightly. The map of the Divine Fire Villa was gone. It was equivalent to wasting two days here!
As if he could see the change in Lin Tian's mood, Huai Zhu's red lips parted slightly as she said.
"If Young Master Lin doesn't mind, Qin Lan and I can lead the way for you. In the human territory, we sisters are quite familiar with it.”
Lin Tian looked at Huai Zhu. Seeing that she was sincere, and that there was no better way at the moment, he nodded.
"Alright."
After saying that, he turned around and left, returning to his room to rest.
Looking at Lin Tian's back, Huai Zhu's expression was a little complicated.
The entire Divine Fire Manor was no longer considered to exist in name only. Other than himself, Qin Lan, and the maid Yu Ping, there was no one else in the entire manor.
The old owner died in the hands of Jin Rinfeng, and Jin Rinfeng and the guards he had won over were all killed by Lin Tian that night.
The villa had also been reduced to ruins and no longer existed.
It was completely impossible for her and Qin Lan to prop up the Divine Fire Manor by themselves.
Moreover, the most important thing now was to protect himself and pass on the bloodline of the Eastern Spirit Clan.
Huai Zhu had only just become a greater demon king, while Qin Lan was only a lesser demon king. The two sisters 'cultivation levels were not stable in this world.
Not to mention the fact that Jin Renfeng had spread the bloodline of the Eastern Spirit Clan. If the world really knew about the Eastern Spirit Clan, the two sisters would be in danger.
The Eastern bloodline was born with spiritual power. It was famous for its Demon-Killing Divine Fire's pure Yang flames and was given the name of the Spiritual Race.
As for the females of the Eastern Spirit Race, they could pass their spirit energy to their children if they were willing. If an outsider married a female of the Eastern Spirit Race, they could pass their cultivation results directly to the next generation. It was equivalent to having the cornerstone of a powerful family!
With this ability that everyone coveted, Huai Zhu's strength as a mere Greater Demon King was completely unable to guarantee his and Qin Lan's safety. They would not be captured by powerful aristocratic families and become fertility machines.
Huai Zhu had a good impression of Lin Tian. He had saved his life several times, and it had long left a deep mark in Huai Zhu's heart.
Under such circumstances, other than following Lin Tian, Huai Zhu could not think of any better way.
The strength that Lin Tian had displayed was at least at the level of a demon emperor. He had the ability to protect himself and Qin Lan. Moreover, even if he coveted the eastern spiritual vein, Huai Zhu did not resist.
After all, compared to the other choices of becoming a fertility machine, wasn't it best to choose someone she liked?
Moreover, that night, Lin Tian had also heard Jin Renfeng's words, but he did not show any curiosity about their bloodline. He was as cold as he was.
In this world where he and Qin Lan depended on each other, the only people he could trust now were Lin Tian and his maid, Yu Ping.
Raising his head, Huai Zhu's watery eyes stared at the moon in the night sky.
"Father, what should Qin Lan and I do?"
"What should I do in the future?"
A low murmur filled with confusion and unease rang out in the courtyard.
A gust of night wind blew, and her soft black hair fluttered gently behind her head, making her look like an otherworldly fairy.
