Chapter 238 Hope
"Yes, I almost forgot. Within this 'secret realm,' there is actually a third gate."
Seeing everyone gathering around him, and all of them looking much more relaxed, Chu Qianqiu was also happy for them.
This is indeed a good thing.
As long as the Demon Race delays their arrival by one more day, he will have a chance to become stronger.
It would be best if he becomes invincible before these damn guys reward him.
In that case, he might be able to single-handedly resist thousands of troops and easily save this world.
"Then everyone should go back first."
"Temporarily assign two people to guard this place."
Giving orders to the strong members of the Monster Race, Batian also expressed his agreement.
He quickly arranged for two Monster Race members who were good at speed to guard the Gate of Reversal, and then the other Monster Race members returned to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
The human world is filled with a kind of annoying atmosphere, which is ultimately not suitable for them.
They still prefer to be in harmony with nature. Those buildings and walls make them feel like they are living in a cage.
Except for Bai Xuan and Xiao Hong.
Now, most of the Monster Race has left, leaving only Xiao Hong and Bai Xuan.
Xiao Hong's situation is understandable.
As the owner of this little guy, Chu Qianqiu should naturally follow her.
But Bai Xuan staying here puzzled Chu Qianqiu.
"Aren't you going back?" he asked.
"No, my lifelong wish has been fulfilled. It doesn't matter where I stay now."
Bai Xuan said with a hint of sadness, tears streaming down as she held her mother's scales and snake teeth in her hands.
"I have fantasized countless times about the true occurrence of this day, but when I actually saw all of this, I still find it hard to believe, and I find it difficult to bear."
She continued to sob while holding her mother's relics.
To comfort this poor "girl," Chu Qianqiu could only hold her in his arms.
"It's okay, at least I'm here, right?"
"Yeah... thank you, you... little human."
Raising her tear-filled eyes, Bai Xuan wiped away her tears and forced a mischievous expression, as if trying to charm him.
"You, you've grown up so fast. The first time I saw you, you were just a fresh piece of food in front of me, but now you have become someone I can rely on."
"Being by your side gives me a sense of security."
Nestling in Chu Qianqiu's arms, Bai Xuan's skin felt cold, giving him a different feeling.
"You cold-blooded little snake, can't you stop saying such heartwarming things? You're almost moving me."
"You're the one... I was once called the Snake Immortal by you, the Green Python!"
"How can you call others a little snake?"
As they laughed and played, the relationship between the human and the monster gradually became closer.
A small figure appeared, staring intently at the two of them, like a jealous third party.
Bai Xuan suddenly realized something and turned her head, only to see the humanoid loli dragon, the Lord of the Holy Dragon, glaring at her with a puffed-up face.
"You, why are you getting so close to my master?"
"Lord Holy Dragon!"
"I know I'm wrong!"
Suddenly frightened, Bai Xuan let go of Chu Qianqiu from her embrace.
The suppression from deep within her bloodline made Bai Xuan feel a sense of nervousness like a thorn on her back. She couldn't stop trembling, and cold sweat kept pouring down.
"Xiao Hong, don't scare her. Didn't we make an agreement?"
Chu Qianqiu intervened in time, pinched Xiao Hong's nose, and touched her head before walking away.
"Hmph, I didn't scare her at all!"
"It's just that every time I get close, she reacts like this on her own!"
Doduo walked away in anger, feeling unjustly accused.
Bai Xuan, feeling slightly better, nodded slightly to indicate that it was true.
"Yes, Lord Shenglong didn't do anything to me."
"She is a noble Dragon Race, and I am from the Snake Clan. Our two races have a blood connection, and my ancestors were a branch of the Dragon Race. So, when facing a pure-blooded Dragon Race, I can't help but feel fear."
"In fact, Lord Shenglong has been trying to suppress her Dragon Race aura, but even so, I still can't control the trembling blood in my body."
"I see..."
After listening to Bai Xuan's words, Chu Qianqiu nodded, not expecting this twist.
According to this explanation, isn't Xiao Hong Bai Xuan's ancestor at the ancestral level?
A little girl, actually the ancestor of a mature lady...
Hmm... this relationship is quite exciting to think about.
"So, you're not going back to the mountains now, but want to live with me in the human world?"
He asked another crucial question.
Seeing Bai Xuan's indecisive expression, he had already guessed the other party's thoughts and true intentions.
"Well... for me, everything is over."
"I want to find someone worth entrusting my life to and live together. I don't want to stay alone in the mountains, only thinking about revenge... I'm tired. I want to be with you... Can you agree to take in this parentless Monster Race little monster?"
Pleadingly, Bai Xuan stole a glance at the distant Lord Shenglong before throwing a seductive look at the man in front of her.
Chu Qianqiu saw the damn snake spirit regain her mature lady demeanor, and the two kidneys that had already calmed down involuntarily started to ache again, recalling the painful and happy memories.
"Cough... well, I need to think about it again."
"You, I know what you're thinking!"
"Don't worry, sister will restrain herself more in the future!"
"I also know, you humans can't do too much at once, otherwise your body won't be able to handle it, and you won't be able to perform."
"What? What did you say! Who said I can't perform!"
"I can do it a hundred times a day! Come and fight me if you don't believe it!"
"Alright, I'm more than willing to accompany you. So, you're agreeing to let me stay by your side, right?"
"Cough... I just asked Xiao Hong, and she said she agreed, it's not that I agreed."
"Alright, I knew you cared about your reputation!"
Nestled in his embrace, holding her mother's keepsake in her hand, Bai Xuan shed two clear tears.
From this moment on, her life was no longer worthless without her mother.
She was no longer a lonely snake; she now had her own home.
A new haven that could heal the scars in her heart.
...
Seeing the intimacy between the man and the snake, it was not appropriate to disturb them.
The only remaining Tang Zhao and Hu Mo also tactfully walked away.
Now, the storm has temporarily calmed down, giving them time to rebuild their empire.
Before the Demon Race truly invades, they must resist the disaster with the common people, build new cities, and forge stronger city walls, doing everything they can.
