Ways to handle this little demon

Pacing back and forth anxiously in a little courtyard and scratching his head like crazy was Ming Zixin. Since his princess kicked off at him for a crime he didn't even know how or when he did, this prince had become like this. 

He was still clear-headed and in his right mind till his princess flirted with him by calling him "good boy. " Ming Zixin just wanna teased his princess back by kissing her foot that was touching his chin. But once his lips touched that soft and supple ankle of his princess, that's the end. Ming Zixin had no idea what he did next. It was as if he had been bewitched all of a sudden. Ming Zixin just couldn't remember anything he did after that. 

As to his princess' reaction, it couldn't be anything good. At that moment, it was as if he was trapped in a trance state. Never in his life had he ever experience such a thing. There must be something wrong. But what could it be? 

Today, he had done nothing unusual. The only thing that wasn't in their daily routine was just that overly flirting moment. No matter how terribly he wanted to do it with his princess, there's no way he would end up losing his own conscience like that. Something was seriously wrong with him. Though he had no clue about it right now, Ming Zixin had this very feeling that he would find it out sooner or later.

At the little inn Wang Li Jie was in, there was no customer left in the first floor. The owner and most of the workers had already turned in. Only one worker was there sitting next to the table, almost nodding off. 

It was not even mid night anymore. Soon, in two or three hours, the dawn was coming. Zhang Long Wei couldn't believe that it took more than three hours to eliminate all those puppets and finish his task. He promised the youth to come back as soon as possible. But he ended up taking very, very long. 

If it were up to him, Zhang Long Wei would have already sneaked into the youth's room directly through its window on the second floor. But now, as to his current condition, Zhang Long Wei couldn't do so. After handling and fighting with hundreds of puppets, his snow-white sect robe was already tainted with foul blood and layers upon layers of dirt. He couldn't walk into the youth's room just like this. 

First, he had to take a quick shower to clean up himself. To take a shower, Zhang Long Wei needed to get another room and that's why he was here, ending up right in front of the inn's door again. 

Once he came in, the sleepy worker stood up immediately and welcomed him recpectfully, rubbing his sleepy eyes. Only when Zhang Long Wei told the worker to give him a room, the man's sleepiness wore off somewhat. The man was about to tell Zhang Long Wei to follow him when he finally caught a clear sight of his untimely customer. 

With overwhelming shock, the man would have already screamed out loud at the top of his lungs if it were not for Zhang Long Wei's hand which immediately covered his mouth in time. 

"Calm down, uncle..... I'm not a demon. Look carefully.... "

Seeing the man calmed down, Zhang Long Wei sighed. Even if the man recognized his sect robe, Zhang Long Wei couldn't do anything about it. Even if the man asked why a sect disciple like him was here, he wouldn't even have the time to answer. Fortunately, this worker was also not an inquisitive one. Without any unnecessary questions, he quickly showed Zhang Long Wei to his room. 

The night was late, so it was somewhat inappropriate for Zhang Long Wei to ask the man to fill the tub for him. Besides, it would be even faster if he did it himself. So, once the man had shown the room, Zhang Long Wei immediately went downstairs. Without even bothering to boil the water, he carried buckets after buckets, quickly filling the wooden bath tub in the room before taking a shower hurriedly. This could be considered the shortest time Zhang Long Wei took to shower in his entire life.

The water was cold and the room was dark since Zhang Long Wei couldn't even spare his time to light a candle. Just five or so minutes and Zhang Long Wei had already finished showering. 

Once he'd done with his shower, the demon immediately rushed to the youth's room only to stumble upon a realization that Wang Li Jie was not there anymore. With overwhelming worry, Zhang Long Wei rushed to downstairs and asked the worker if he saw Wang Li Jie leaving. But the answer was just no. 

There's no one else in the sect who knew the youth's health condition right now. And it was absolutely impossible for Wang Li Jie to go somewhere else by himself in his current condition either.

Zhang Long Wei had never felt this helpless before. Since he had nothing or no one to care in the past, there's not even once Zhang Long Wei felt the need to worry this much for someone else. After turning the entire inn inside out but still not finding the youth, Zhang Long Wei hurried up and went to search Wang Li Jie in other places of the village as well.

The demon tried to think of other possibilities. Maybe the youth had gone out because he felt a lot better. But if that's the case, Wang Li Jie would have at least left a note to tell him that he was okay. Even so, Zhang Long Wei didn't think it was possible either. The youth's condition was still worrying even when he left him. There's no way he would get better without getting a human's warmth. 

Or, could it be that Wang Li Jie had been kidnapped by some other demons? Or, maybe the youth left with the last energy he had to ask for other people's help because he couldn't endure it anymore? Zhang Long Wei just couldn't think clearly anymore. He'd already searched the whole area of butterfly village through and through. But, the outcome was just the same. Zhang Long Wei still couldn't caught a glimpse of the youth's shadow. 

The concerned demon was about to go look for the youth in other villages as well when he got an unexpected voice transmission. Touching his temple with impatience, Zhang Long Wei was about to ask who the other was when he heard a familiar voice in their stern tone. 

"Come back to the peak immediately. "

It was immortal Wang. To get summoned by such a creepy master in the middle of the night....if it were others, it might have scared the hell out of them already. Instead, Zhang Long Wei only felt relieved.....he felt relieved and reassured because he was now sure that the youth was already back at snowy-light peak......safe and sound with his parents....
