Chapter 26: A Wolf Cub
“Junior Brother!” Lou Yunxiao’s body that just relaxed tensed up abruptly. He said: “You’d better not make this kind of joke anymore!”
Having interacted with Ning Ke for a few months.
Lou Yunxiao knew this Junior Brother of his always loved to tease him, joke with him.
But he always took feelings very seriously.
Really couldn’t put these words on his lips like Ning Ke.
“Ouch ouch, alright alright, Senior Brother, I apologize, I was wrong.”
Seeing he teased the person into exploding, Ning Ke hurriedly stopped, obediently coaxing him.
He hugged Lou Yunxiao tighter, rubbing rubbing rubbing, acting coquettish: “Senior Brother don’t be angry with me okay? Thousand mistakes ten thousand mistakes are all A-Ke’s mistakes, A-Ke won’t tease you like this in the future.”
“…” Lou Yunxiao thought, probably no one in the world could resist this Junior Brother’s coquetry.
He relaxed, not forgetting to say: “Matters of feelings should not be trifled with. You really need to rein in your temper.”
Ning Ke pretended to cover his head, acting like Sun Wukong listening to Tang Seng chanting sutras: “Okay okay okay, Senior Brother stop chanting stop chanting…”
Only then did Lou Yunxiao let him off.
The next day, Ning Ke was woken up by the sound of firecrackers.
The small flame floated dutifully beside him to keep him warm; the quilt was also wrapped tightly around his body.
But Lou Yunxiao was missing.
Ning Ke put on the fluffy red cloak. The circle of fur on the hood made his face look even smaller. His overly bright and exquisite appearance, at first glance, people who didn’t know could really easily mistake him for a woman.
This resulted in him stepping out the door and charming the young boys and girlsâwho came under the pretext of finding Ning Xiaoxiao to play but actually to see the Immortal Mastersâinto forgetting the actions in their hands.
Staring at him blankly.
“Da Niu, if you don’t let go, that firecracker will burn your hand!” Ning Xiaoxiao couldn’t help reminding the dark-faced honest boy.
“Ah!” Hearing this, the boy hurriedly flung his hand, unexpectedly throwing it right towards Ning Ke’s direction.
“Immortal Master be careful!”
Just as his words came out, looking again, that firecracker was already frozen into ice, instantly misfiring, falling onto the ground.
Ning Ke curved his eyes, looking at the approaching Lou Yunxiao and… the husky he was carrying?
Specifically, Lou Yunxiao used a tree trunk to carry a “husky” with only its head not frozen, and the husky was still cursing and shouting.
“Dog sword cultivator! This young master just stole a few sheep, hurt a few people, didn’t cause any deaths, what right do you have to arrest me!”
“Eldest Senior Brother, you came back so fast!” Ning Xiaoxiao walked over, slapped the husky on the head, saying: “You wolf demon, stole sheep from our Ning Family Village and still unrepentant. Not teaching you a lesson, you really think us Human Realm has no one!”
Those few young boys and girls who stared at Ning Ke just now, seeing Lou Yunxiao brought the wolf demon back, also gathered around, criticizing the wolf demon one after another.
Lou Yunxiao walked to Ning Ke’s side saying: “Villagers said a wolf demon was causing trouble, so I went up the mountain.”
He asked Ning Ke: “Did you just wake up?”
“Mm.” Ning Ke brushed off the dirt Lou Yunxiao got on his robe for him, also looking at that wolf demon: “How do you plan to deal with this wolf?”
The Human Race and Demon (Yao) Race actually didn’t have big feuds; in the past it was all small skirmishes.
Cultivators eliminating demons only eliminated evil demons who infiltrated the Human Realm and ate people, not killing all other demon kinds to the last one.
But Lou Yunxiao was different.
His sect was wiped out by the Demon Race; now catching a demon again…
Sure enough, in the next moment Lou Yunxiao summoned the Cangyin Sword, pointing straight at that wolf demon.
The previous gentle appearance tore apart inch by inch. The killing intent around him scared those onlookers young boys and girls into retreating a few steps.
He asked Ning Ke: “Junior Brother, what do you think I should do?”
The wolf cub also sensed something, eyes turning red instantly: “Wu wah, dog sword cultivator, you wouldn’t really kill me right?! Wah wah wah, this young master is just a hundred years old, going to die young? Wu wu eh?…”
Halfway through speaking, he suddenly saw Ning Ke beside Lou Yunxiao, wolf eyes widening round.
“De, Demon Sovereign sa…”
“Hahaha, hahaha, Senior Brother, I think, how about this, let’s investigate, if this wolf cub didn’t harm human lives, let’s spare his life okay?”
Ning Ke broke out in cold sweat from fright, hurriedly covering the wolf cub’s mouth, winking at him, then looking at the surrounding young boys and girls, asking: “Everyone, you also say, is it better to kill him, or punish him?”
Da Niu blushed as soon as he saw Ning Ke, hurriedly lowering his head saying: “I think, he is wrong, but not to the extent of killing him.”
Others also nodded.
Only then did Lou Yunxiao sheath his sword, but the coldness on his face didn’t fade completely.
If before experiencing the annihilation, he still held a tolerant attitude towards the Demon Race.
Then now, he indeed harbored hatred towards all demons as Ning Ke thought.
However, he remembered he still had Junior Brother A-Ke beside him. He wanted to know what the other would do encountering this kind of thing.
Because having companions, friends, he also wanted to respect everyone’s choice.
Ning Ke breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up the wolf cub with one hand and went around behind the house, saying: “Then I’ll interrogate him alone first, you guys wait a while.”
“Brother, why interrogate alone? We can call the villagers to interrogate together?”
“…” Truly the annual Pit Brother Award!
Ning Ke smiled awkwardly, saying, “Okay, then you go call people.”
Then he tried his best to carry the wolf cub to a place further away, lowering his voice saying: “Stinking brat, absolutely don’t talk nonsense! Otherwise I can’t save you either!”
Demons were most sensitive to demons’ aura; this was a connection existing in the bloodline.
So Ning Ke wouldn’t be recognized by humans, but easily recognized by demons.
This sudden situation almost made him drop his biggest disguise.
Scared out a cold sweat.
“But Demon Sovereign Your Honor you are so strong, how can that stinking sword cultivator beat you?”
“My main body is in the Demon Realm! I am just a tail!”
“Oh! I know!” The wolf cub had starry eyes, full of admiration: “Demon Sovereign Your Honor, you doing this must be to probe the internal situation of their Human Realm sects, to catch them all in one net! Then unite the Demon Realm and Human Realm!”
“You are truly too amazing! Worthy of being our strongest Sovereign!”
“…” Ning Ke held his forehead, explaining: “Think whatever you want, but remember absolutely, don’t expose my identity, and don’t tell people in the Demon Realm about this matter.”
“Also…”
His gaze turned cold, pressing on the wolf cub’s crown, interrogating.
“Did you really not harm human lives?”
The wolf cub shrank his neck scared by his killing intent, hurriedly saying: “No! Absolutely not!”
