TBOUMTBDK Chapter 84

Chapter 84: Demonic Beast

Such a commotion couldn’t be concealed from the others any longer. When Yun Xia, having hastily put on his clothes, got out of bed and left his room, his three unfortunate fellow disciples were all peeking at him from behind their doors.

Yun Xia awkwardly raised a hand, “Hi, good evening.”

The others: “…”

“Sorry, everyone, for waking you.”

Seeing that nothing major had happened, Zhu Wan’er turned around and went back to sleep.

Huai Ying looked at Yun Xia, then at the wide-open courtyard door, shaking his head, “You two, why are you still playing around at this hour? Can’t you just sleep properly? An old man like me can’t handle the excitement.”

Indeed, they had seen this too often recently and no longer considered it a sign of conflict between them, but rather, just them playing around.

Gong Qiu: “Don’t worry, Senior Brother, with your age, a little more excitement won’t hurt.”

Huai Ying rolled his eyes, not wanting to listen, waved his hand, and went back to his room.

Only Gong Qiu walked over with great interest.

“Senior Brother, what happened? Esteemed Lord just left like that?”

His appearance was disheveled, looking very suspicious.

Yun Xia: “Yeah, what can I do? That guy is too thin-skinned.”

Gong Qiu’s eyes lit up: “What what what, you two were in the room!”

Yun Xia smiled slightly: “You want to know?”

He was the one who took the initiative to ask, but now he was blushing.

“No no, I didn’t mean to pry. Um, Senior Brother, I’m going back to sleep too.”

Having said that, he slipped back to his room, his face flushed.

Yun Xia walked to the stone bench in the courtyard and sat down, waiting for Mo Jun Zhou, not going out to look for him.

He was worried that the man would run even further if he saw him.

Tsk tsk tsk, how lamentable. It used to be that he was manipulated by the Venerable Demon, but now he was manipulating Mo Jun Zhou.

Not to mention, it was quite interesting. He even looked forward to the next time.

After all, he might not see the Venerable Demon with this kind of expression again in the future.

Yun Xia very considerately gave Mo Jun Zhou space to digest, while he himself waited in the courtyard, leaning on the table and reading a book while he waited.

In order to prevent the small courtyard from looking too much like a haunted house at night, Zhu Wan’er had specially prepared more candlelight, which would not go out at night.

But the light was never enough, but Yun Xia didn’t mind.

The first thing he flipped through was a little yellow book he found in his storage bag.

This book collected ten different stories, from both the Immortal and Demon Realms, and was accompanied by illustrations, which were drawn very well. The overall style was sensual but not vulgar, because the clothes were revealing just right, very seductive, making people unable to stop, arousing reverie.

This was considered one of his prized books, one he had carefully selected in secret, without letting the Demon Lord know.

This was also a rare, more introverted and concealing yellow book in the Demon Realm. More common were those with extremely strong impact, with clothes so few that they were equivalent to none, and actions that were very direct and unrestrained.

Yun Xia didn’t like that type. But when he saw a book like this, where the actions weren’t conservative but still made people’s minds run wild, Yun Xia immediately bought it.

He even thought that the author of this book was someone from the Immortal Realm.

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to sort out his storage bag, but he gave up after taking out half of the things because it was too noisy. He decided to find some leisurely books to pass the time, and he happened to find this one in the corner.

After taking the book out and reading it for a while, he felt his heart surging and realized that it wasn’t right. This wasn’t the place to read this kind of book. He casually put it aside and went to read something else, thinking about putting it away later.

As a result, while reading, Yun Xia couldn’t hold on any longer and fell asleep on the table.

After another period of time, Mo Jun Zhou returned.

Seeing Yun Xia waiting for him, he was stunned and walked over quietly.

There were some sundries on the ground, and several books on the table. Perhaps Yun Xia’s movements were too big after falling asleep, and some of the books on the table were about to be pushed to the ground. So he casually picked up one, and stood beside Yun Xia staring at him.

Yun Xia’s face was pressed against the stone table, and his lips were slightly pursed due to the pressure.

Mo Jun Zhou’s gaze inexplicably lingered on them for a long time, his thoughts running wild. When he came back to his senses, he realized what he was looking at.

He immediately turned his face away, and the heartbeat he had finally suppressed began to accelerate again.

He took a deep breath and flipped through the book in his hand as if to cover up. He was dumbfounded when he saw it, the people on it were…

As a demon, he wasn’t unfamiliar with these things. People in the Demon Realm were naturally unrestrained and bold, and they weren’t ashamed of it.

But Mo Jun Zhou had never been interested in this aspect. As someone who cultivated both demonic and spiritual energies, he mustn’t allow himself to indulge in these things.

His world was originally full of killing and violence.

But during this time, he was forced to be with Yun Xia and experienced many feelings he had never had before, as if all kinds of dyes had fallen into the dark and calm water surface. Those dyes couldn’t dissolve in the water, so little by little, they dyed that water area with various colors.

If it were someone else, he would have been able to put it down without changing his expression, and then continue doing what he was supposed to do. But now, in front of him was Yun Xia. The young man who had charged in and out of beast tides multiple times without changing his expression had trembling fingers and a rapidly rising and falling chest. That book was like a hot potato, making him wish he could throw it away.

But he didn’t.

He just put the book back in its place, then glared fiercely at Yun Xia, turned around, and ran out again.

……

Two hours later, it was dawn. Yun Xia frowned and opened his eyes.

Having slept in that position all night, his body was now very uncomfortable. His arm was numb, his waist hurt, and his face was a little sore.

He looked around. Had Mo Jun Zhou not returned last night, or had he just gone back to sleep? Why hadn’t he woken him up?

He beat his waist and got up to look around the room, but no one was there.

Yun Xia: “?”

Was he that angry? It couldn’t be, he had only touched his butt, was he so angry that he didn’t come back all night?

He could only quickly put away all the things on the ground and the table. After thinking about it, he decided to go out and look for him.

It was early in the morning, the sky wasn’t very bright yet, and the forest was even darker.

Yun Xia realized as he walked that his body felt like it didn’t belong to him after sleeping outside like this for a night. He grumbled in dissatisfaction as he walked, “Staying out all night, huh? When I find you, I’ll tie you to a tree and make you sleep outside for a night!”

He searched quite far, calling Mo Jun Zhou’s name as he walked, and also released his Demonic Energy to probe.

“Where did he run off to? He wouldn’t have been seduced by some fox spirit, would he? Mo Jun Zhou, you’re something else, you’ve learned to be bad.”

There was a picture of a fox spirit in the little yellow book he had read last night, and he was now using it offhandedly.

“A male fox or a female fox? An immortal fox or a demon fox?”

He had long left the range of the space barrier. That barrier wasn’t big, and he had already walked out of it countless times. Recently, in order to collect Burning Cloud Grass, he and Mo Jun Zhou had become very familiar with this area.

“That kid wouldn’t be deliberately hiding from me, would he?”

Having searched for a long time without finding anyone, and not having slept well last night, Yun Xia was already unhappy. Mo Jun Zhou’s spiritual sense was so strong, how could he not have sensed that he was looking for him? That kid wouldn’t be watching him from the shadows, deliberately not saying anything, would he?

Yun Xia simply shouted loudly: “Mo Jun Zhou! If you hear me and don’t come out, I’m going back myself!”

……

There was no response. Yun Xia snorted lightly, turned around, and walked back.

After walking out ten meters or so, Yun Xia heard a sound approaching him from behind.

He’s finally coming out… No, wait!

The sound went from far to near, approaching very quickly. The footsteps didn’t sound human, but rather like a wild beast!

Yun Xia was about to turn around and dodge, but the other party suddenly accelerated. The speed was so fast that Yun Xia couldn’t react at all and felt sharp wind blades.

“!”

At the crucial moment, the black shadow suddenly let out an angry roar, and the wind blades were deflected a little, cutting off a strand of Yun Xia’s hair.

Yun Xia fell to the ground and saw clearly that the black shadow was a demonic beast with three tails. It turned around and attacked someone.

Unsurprisingly, that person was Mo Jun Zhou.

That demonic beast was obviously the leader of a region, and its strength shouldn’t be underestimated. Mo Jun Zhou couldn’t use Demonic Energy, so he spent most of his time dodging, narrowly avoiding the ferocious claws of the demonic beast.

Yun Xia didn’t have time to think about why there would be such a powerful demonic beast here. He shouted loudly to remind him: “Demonic beasts have weak spiritual senses, attack their weak points!”

Mo Jun Zhou barely avoided a swift attack from the demonic beast. He looked a little disheveled, but his spirit was high. His eyes were focused on the demonic beast, and there was even a hint of excitement on his face.

He must have heard Yun Xia’s words, but he didn’t turn around or acknowledge him.

Yun Xia assumed that he couldn’t spare the attention, so he hid aside and observed carefully.

That’s right, there was no way Mo Jun Zhou wouldn’t know the weak points of demonic beasts. Most demonic beasts had powerful physical bodies, making them difficult for ordinary people of the same level to deal with. If they had to say, their weak point was their spiritual sense.

Although there were few spiritual cultivators, it wasn’t as if everyone was without means to deal with them. Some people who frequently went into the mountains to hunt demonic beasts would bring magic artifacts or pills that targeted their spiritual senses.

But Mo Jun Zhou was a spiritual cultivator, so there was no way he wouldn’t know.

Since it had come to this, and Mo Jun Zhou was even faintly suppressed, could it be that this demonic beast was an exception?

Was its spiritual sense very strong?

Yun Xia thought for a moment and immediately rummaged through the storage bag on his body: “Hold on! I have a way to deal with it!”

At this time, Mo Jun Zhou and the demonic beast were fighting nearby. Yun Xia ran around while searching. Mo Jun Zhou’s eyelids twitched.

“Get out of here!”

“Get out of where? I can’t abandon you. It’s not like I’m a useless piece of trash!”

He remembered that he had…

Where was the storage bag? Why couldn’t he find it?

“Damn it!”

A flash of inspiration struck him, when he was packing, he was thinking about how he was only going out to find someone, so he left his storage bag in the house!

Yun Xia couldn’t believe it. At a critical moment, he realized that he hadn’t brought the key item! What could be more infuriating than this!

Ahhh, why didn’t he carry it with him? It’s not like the storage bag was big!

His voice caused Mo Jun Zhou to pay some attention to him. At this moment, a cold light flashed in the beast pupils of the demonic beast, revealing a sly look. It deliberately pounced at Mo Jun Zhou. Mo Jun Zhou dodged, but halfway through the pounce, the demonic beast suddenly turned towards Yun Xia with extreme speed.

“Roar!”

Yun Xia’s figure was enlarged in the beast pupils. After hearing the noise, he looked up, revealing a look of panic.

The demonic beast smiled ferociously.

At this moment, Mo Jun Zhou’s pupils trembled violently, and a certain scarlet color emerged. In that instant, heaven and earth seemed to freeze.

Yun Xia watched the demonic beast approach, his body completely unable to move. The short moment seemed to be stretched out. He could only watch himself die tragically in the mouth of the demonic beast…

Huh?

Yun Xia blinked. Before his eyes was the demonic beast’s scarlet mouth, its thick fangs flashing with a cold light, and the stench of its saliva filled his nostrils.

The demonic beast was unable to move less than half a meter in front of him. It suddenly stopped in mid-air. When Yun Xia looked up, he saw the demonic beast’s green beast pupils trembling madly. Fear was constantly rising within them, and the corners of its eyes were constantly widening in fear, as if they were about to crack.

Yun Xia quickly retreated backward, his legs going weak and he fell to the ground.

A dark lotus slowly bloomed under the demonic beast’s feet, engulfing the demonic beast like fire.
