Demon King's Pampered Wife

Zi Ling felt that she should have drawn the wind to pay attention to him. From the looks of it, he didn't look as though he was seriously injured, not to mention that he had boundless power in his meridians.

She forced her hand back. "Although you were injured when you saved me, I helped you save a group of people. A dozen or so Xuan Generals and a few dozen Xuan Masters; this group of people would not be weak even if they were placed outside."

Violet Ling's meaning was very clear. Qi Hao saved him and injured him, but he also returned a lot, so they didn't owe each other anything.

With that said, Zi Ling directly walked to the bedside and sat down cross-legged, slightly closing her eyes and began cultivating.

Qi Hao didn't say anything, but his gaze fell on Zi Ling's face. A long time later, Zi Ling heard a door slam and let out a light breath. She opened her eyes and looked at the closed door.

She quickly retracted her mind and released her divine sense to cover the entire village.

In a spacious room at the end of the village, a dozen gray-clothed people gathered in one place.

"Big Brother, are you really planning to let them go?"

The oldest man in gray sighed, "I know this is against the clan rules, but they have cured our people, we can't repay their kindness with hatred."

After saying this, everyone in the room fell silent.

"However, if we don't report this to the clan leader, then if the clan leader finds out, most likely all of us will be implicated."

Everyone held their tongue, and the oldest man in gray revealed a troubled expression, "After this incident, I will personally ask for forgiveness from the Patriarch, even if it would be better to take my life than endangering all of us."

"How can that be? Big brother, if you ask for forgiveness from the family head, it would be exposing them."

The eldest brother shook his head. "I won't tell them."

As Zi Ling saw this, she believed that this gray-clothed man had a wooden head, and once he explained the situation to the chief, the chief would naturally investigate. As for how to investigate, there were too many methods, and every one could be easily found. Since he had done all this, he naturally could not let them go and beg for punishment from the patriarch. It seemed that he would have to raise another condition tomorrow.

There was much debate about the matter, most of it disagreeing with their eldest brother's confession to the patriarch, and a small part of the room foolishly and faithfully believed that the rules could not be broken.

Seeing that they at least didn't have any malicious intent, he retrieved his spiritual sense, but at this moment, he discovered Qi Hao and Skybird standing by the cliff at the back of the house.

"Master, we can't stay here for too long." Master, we can't stay here for too long.

Qi Hao nodded. "In a while, you can let Wu Di and Bloodstained go down the mountain first and act according to my previous arrangements."

"Yes, Master." After Skybird finished, he seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated.

Zi Ling was preparing to withdraw her consciousness when she heard Bird say, "Master, you clearly know that the power that broke the seal by force will be wiped out by this world, so why did you do this?"

Skybird's expression now was completely different from usual, with a trace of humility and respect.

Qi Hao turned his head, not replying for a moment. After a long time, he said, "If we hadn't saved her at that time, she would very likely have died."

Skybird suddenly raised his head. "But Master saved him, so I'm in a dire situation."

Qi Hao let out a soft sigh. "Skybird, you have been by my side for the past few hundred years. I am very grateful to you, but I know what I am doing."

Skybird pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, he resisted.

"Your subordinate is just unhappy. Qi Ming is just a clown. If it wasn't for …"

Qi Hao swept a glance over, and Skybird swallowed his words again, "Subordinate, this subordinate understands."

In the instant that Skybird lowered his head, Qi Hao suddenly raised his head and glanced in the direction of Zi Ling. That gaze seemed to pierce through the wall and see his true self. Hurriedly withdrawing her consciousness, Zi Ling suddenly felt that she had spied on a shocking secret.

Qi Hao said that Sky Bird had been accompanying him for hundreds of years, but looking at Sky Bird's and Qi Hao's skeletal age, they were clearly only a few decades old. What was even weirder was that Qi Ming, as one of the few mysterious kings of the Anze Continent, had become a clown in Sky Bird's mouth.

What exactly is Qi Hao's identity? What about the boundless power and seal in his body?

A series of questions caused Zi Ling's face to turn slightly pale.

Big brother Qi, there's no delicacies within the valley to entertain you. Xue Yi appeared at the door carrying some simple yet exquisite dishes, just as Qi Hao walked out from the back of the house.

Qi Hao nodded. "Thank you, young lady." After which, he took the tray and prepared to enter.

"Big brother Qi, thank you for saving my loved ones. I will think of a way to convince Big Grandpa and the others not to tell the chief about you guys having come here."

After saying that, he saw that Qi Hao didn't have any reaction. He raised his head to look at the room, bit his lips, and suddenly asked, "That woman in the room, is she really your wife?"

"Of course not!" Bird, who was following behind Qi Hao, immediately denied Zi Ling's identity. From his point of view, since these people already knew that their master wasn't the clan leader, it didn't matter if Zi Ling pretended to be their mistress or not.

Sure enough, after Xue Yi heard what the Heavenly Bird said, her eyes lit up even more, and two dimples appeared on her cheeks from her smile. He was also a rare beauty!

Bird silently evaluated. Although this girl's beauty couldn't compare to Ye Ling's, she wasn't too inferior either. If Master really liked her, then that would be too good.

Skybird was in the middle of thinking happily when he suddenly felt a cold gaze sweep over him. He secretly cursed and didn't dare to look up at his master. He respectfully took the tray from Qi Hao's hands and didn't say another word.

Ignoring Skybird and Snow Robe, Qi Hao turned around and entered the house.

Xue Yi was slightly disappointed, he stared at Qi Hao's back, his eyes unable to look away.

Bird lightly coughed for a while. He had seen this situation too often. Wherever his master was, the women would always look at their master this way. In the past, he had always been the one to drive away these peach blossoms on his master's behalf.

However, the current situation was different from the past. Lady Xue Yi's character was outstanding, and when compared to Ye Ling, how could one compare her to be better dressed in snow clothes?

Xue Yi's gaze finally withdrew from the closed door. In the blink of an eye, she saw Skybird's smiling face and her face reddened slightly. "Big brother Qi, he …" Since he and that girl aren't husband and wife, how can they live together? "

"You want to ask who that girl is, does my master like her?" Bird smiled: "Miss Xue Yi, if you want to know anything then come with me. I'll tell you everything."

Xue Yi hurriedly nodded her head and agreed. Then, she and Skybird quickly disappeared from the entrance.

Although Zi Ling had already retracted her consciousness, her hearing was sharp and her eyes were sharp. The two of them spoke at the door, so naturally, their conversation would fall into Zi Ling's ears.

But she didn't open her eyes, she still maintained her cultivation, even after Qi Hao entered the room and felt his gaze on her, she still didn't open her eyes even once.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she knew instinctively that she had to keep her distance from him. She just hoped this was the place, away from him. Perhaps the feeling of being infected with the Gu would disappear.

Qi Hao didn't make any sound to disturb him, but similarly, sat in another corner of the room and began cultivating.

Neither of them touched the things that the snowsuit had delivered.

For the first time, the purple silk felt that the night was long. Normally, she would just close her eyes and circulate the spiritual energy for a few days before the sky turned bright again. It was unknown if there was an extra person in the room today, but the spiritual energy in her body still could not circulate smoothly. This made her feel as if this night had been too long.

The sky finally brightened as Zi Ling quietly exhaled. Outside, the Qi Family clansmen from the holy land were already waiting for them.

When Zi Ling pushed open the door and left, ten gray-clothed elders walked up to her.

"How's the girl?" The leading man in gray said.

Zi Ling nodded. "Don't worry. I will finish the treatment for the remaining people today."

Hearing her words, the people in gray all let out sighs of relief.

Zi Ling didn't even look behind her. She had already decided to save him today. She then used the Sacred Pond's recovery excuse to think of ways to take away some of the Divine Dragon Marrow.

"However... I have another request. "

The people in gray stopped in unison. The leader in gray asked, "I wonder what other requests you have?"

If it was yesterday, he would probably not easily agree to the rest of her request. However, he had personally witnessed her easily saving the lives of eight relatives, and each of them said that their cultivation would be even smoother.

Thus, the gray-robed figures had already decided that as long as they were able to accomplish this, they would do their best to satisfy their opponent.

Zi Ling smiled slightly, "My request is very simple. You are not allowed to mention that we have come here, and even more so, you are not allowed to go and ask for punishment from the clan leader."

The ashen-robed leader's expression changed. He did not understand how the other party knew about the contents of their private discussion.

Zi Ling raised her brows, "What's wrong?" This request is very difficult? If you can't do it, then I can't save them either. "

The dozen or so Profound General level elders simultaneously revealed troubled expressions. In the end, all of them turned their gazes towards their eldest brother — the gray-clothed leader.

The leading gray-robed man let out a long sigh, "Little girl, is there anything else you don't know?" His tone was filled with helplessness and compromise.

Zi Ling smiled, "As long as you keep your promise, I know nothing."

The old man closed his eyes. In the end, he still chose to bury this matter in his heart for the sake of his relatives and did not tell anyone else.

"Don't worry miss, we will absolutely not leak the news that you've come here."

"That's good, then I'm also prepared to save him."

That day, Zi Ling was busy saving people, while Skybird was busy matching up his master and Xue Yi. As for Wu Di and Xue Ran, they had already quietly left the Sacred Land.

"Miss Xue Yi, my master is not interested in food. Can you make tea?"

Xue Yi's face turned red as she nodded lightly: "I know a bit."

"That's great. This is a ten thousand year snow mist. If you steeped it and gave it to my master, my master would definitely have a whole new level of respect for her." Bird encouraged.

Xue Yi extended her hand to receive it. "Thank you, Big Brother Skybird."

"Why are you thanking me? Hurry up and go soak in it." You have to try your best. Ye Ling's appearance is better than yours. However, you're better than being gentle like water.

Skybird waved his feather fan, thinking that he had a good plan. He turned his head to face his master's gaze.

Skybird was startled, but quickly suppressed it and slowly walked to Qi Hao's side.

Qi Hao didn't even look up as he said, "Skybird, sometimes, when you're helping others, it's not to help others, but to harm them."

As expected … Master saw through it. Skybird hurriedly fanned himself, "Master is right." He answered it in one piece.

Qi Hao glanced at him and then ignored him. He thought that once he woke up Skybird, it wouldn't do anything stupid, but he didn't expect that Skybird would be so determined to keep Ye Ling away from his master. If he had known earlier, he definitely wouldn't have done it.
