In the palace, the black-haired young man closed his eyes and meditated on the seat, one hand hanging slightly, casual and lazy.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he found the little girl sitting next to him, looking at him motionless.
This startled him. He quickly put away his hand and said, "Your Highness."
His soul was out of body, and his body was still there, so he looked as if he was asleep. Naturally, he couldn't feel when Qiao Xiyin came.
"I've been looking for you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to sleep here," the little girl said flatly, "Go back to your room and rest, don't sleep on the chair."
He Yunchao's heart softened and he said warmly, "No. Someone just called me."
Qiao Xiyin knows this.
The ways for demons to enter the human world are, firstly, by cultivating a race to become demons, and secondly, by being summoned. However, generally speaking, demon kings cannot be summoned. Very few people have the power to summon the Demon King.
Now that there are only two of them in the demon clan, they can't summon the demon king, so they can only summon He Yunchao.
"An arrogant human being," he sneered, "want to cooperate with us, he has great ambitions."
He doesn't think of cooperation as cooperation, but as the first sacrifice since the demons came to the mainland.
If the demons are to be reborn, someone must bleed.
The old fox, full of evil thoughts, thought he was pretending to be the best, but he didn't expect that the flaws were all written on his face.
He has experienced so many worlds, and if he couldn't see through that little trick, he would have been obliterated long ago.
Qiao Xiyin asked, "Then what are you going to do to him?"
He Yunchao asked, "He wants us to help him seize power. Does Your Highness want to play with him?"
"Okay," the little girl's eyebrows curved into crescents, "I haven't been out for a long time."
Although the life of the demon clan is comfortable and leisurely, Qiao Xiyin is a person who cannot sit still. After living a stable life for too long, I can no longer rest.
Now that I have the opportunity, of course I have to go out and take a look.
The place where the third elder is located is the royal city.
Previously, He Yunchao was a soul and was summoned, so it was easy to come and go.
Now two people have to walk together, and the royal city is far away. Fortunately, there is a teleportation circle, so it is not particularly troublesome.
When the two arrived at the royal city, the royal city was very lively.
A dozen blue birds pulled the crystal-carved carriage, swooped down from mid-air, and landed slowly. The white petals are spread all the way from the entrance of the royal city to the road leading to the church, making you feel like you are in a sea of flowers.
The wedding procession entered the royal city in a mighty manner. The bride with golden curly hair was sitting in a crystal carriage with a smile on her face and was extremely happy.
Qiao Xiyin glanced at it from a distance.
Of course she knew this person, her sister, Carol, another blonde princess of the royal family.
She disappeared, so Carol married her by mistake. Originally it was Carol who was getting married, but he was about to become her, and when she left, he became Carol again.
But looking at Carol's expression, she seemed to feel very happy and satisfied, without any discomfort. It seemed that she had taken the initiative to accept the marriage. Otherwise, based on the king and queen's love for her, they would definitely find another way instead of sending their daughter off to get married.
How come the person who cried and said he would not marry before changed his mind
she thought with interest.
She entered a restaurant, which was near the city gate. There were all kinds of people there, and everyone around her was talking about it.
"I heard that Prince Bruce's new princess is still the girl of his dreams. No wonder it's such a grand event."
"Three princesses have died. Guess how long this princess can live?"
"It's really rare for a princess in a little blond kingdom to have such a pure hair color. She's still a very young girl. It's a pity."
Seeing that Qiao Xiyin was distracted, He Yunchao took a sip of water and tapped her table gently, "Your Highness."
"Ah" the little girl bit her lip, her eyes darkened, and she pointed to the wedding procession ahead, "That's my sister."
He Yunchao's expression paused and he looked at her silently.
"If you hadn't taken me away, I would have been the one to marry you."
Listening to her light voice, for some reason, he felt a little happy but mixed with a little unwillingness.
Since you took it away, why did you say it in such a regretful tone
"Your Highness, do you still want to marry?"
"Of course I don't want to," Qiao Xiyin quickly shook her head, "I just didn't expect to meet her here so soon."
At this time, He Yunchao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He said that Qiao Xiyin was so eager to leave at that time, how could she regret it now
And he heard the people around him talking about this marriage, and they were not good words. They even looked at the sister who had married him with pity in their eyes. How could Qiao Xiyin marry her
The two rested for a while in the restaurant and then went to the largest mercenary union in the royal city where the bounty mission was released.
The third elder gave the news, saying that the great elder had recently issued a bounty mission to find a rare medicinal herb in the North Forest. After getting the herb, the Grand Elder will personally meet you. This is a good opportunity to get close to the Grand Elder.
In front of the counter, a tall and thin man was lazily counting gold coins. In front of him was a huge wooden board with tasks divided by levels marked on it. The elder was rated S-level and hung high on the top.
The North Forest is located at the forefront of the Royal City. During the war between humans and demons, it was the first line of defense for the Royal City. There are a large number of magical relics left behind. In addition, the North Forest itself is full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will fall deeply into it. Therefore, Few people want to go there.
The thing the Great Elder is looking for is in the deepest part of the forest, so it makes sense that it would be rated S-level.
He Yunchao wrote his and Qiao Xiyin's names in the registration office. Just as I stopped writing, three more people came outside the door, "We want to take on that S-level mission."
The tall and thin man raised his eyelids and said, "I just haven't had time to tell you that S-level missions can only be opened with a team of five or more people. You can register together."
Bounty missions also pay attention to the protection of the personal safety of mercenaries. There is no way to save their lives, but the basic principle is still to go into the North Forest alone or something, don't sign up here.
Qiao Xiyin and He Yunchao both turned their heads.
The three of them were all young and looked to be in their early twenties. They were wearing neat uniforms with exquisitely cut materials and looked expensive.
There are two men and one woman. One boy is very big and has muscles all over his body. The other looks closer to a normal person, but his face is full of arrogance. The girl was also very tall, and she crossed her arms lightly, looking very disdainful.
"We want to form a team with others," the boy who was closer to a normal person said, "Please, we are students of the Imperial Academy of Magic High School."
He pointed to the school badge he wore on his chest. There were several stars on it. The girl had one less star than him. I guess this should symbolize strength.
When he heard "High School of the Imperial Capital Academy of Magic", the tall and thin man's face changed slightly, but he didn't look very surprised, "This is a rule."
Students who can study at the Imperial Magic Academy are usually rich or noble. Such people have one thing in common: they are very arrogant and arrogant. There are often students here from the Imperial Magic Academy. They have learned a lot of theoretical knowledge in school and think that they are not afraid of anything. They come here to take on the most difficult tasks, but in the end they are ruined by their ignorant hands.
He has seen many such people, so he is not so surprised.
The boy wanted to say something else, but the man blocked his mouth with "Or don't take this task."
The mercenary union covers the entire royal city, and even ordinary nobles dare not provoke them. They are not stupid enough to do anything here. Therefore, although he was dissatisfied, he could only nod his head in agreement.
"Your Highness," He Yunchao said softly, "I also think that two people are enough."
When he said this, he did not deliberately lower his voice. Several people present heard it clearly, and their faces were not very good. However, the man had already distributed the tokens to them one by one, which represented the success of the team. There is a teleportation array here, which is directly linked to the trade union and cannot be escaped.
Five people walked out of the union gate one after another.
"When are you going to enter the forest?" the girl asked, shrugging.
The tall boy snorted, "Of course now. If the people behind you don't want to follow, then don't follow."
They usually targeted He Yunchao. He Yunchao was slim and slender. He didn't look like he could fight, but he looked like a pampered nobleman. As for the cute little blond girl next to them, they couldn't bear to scold her yet.
But, didn’t He Yunchao really bring the little girl here to play
These two nobles were really interested in coming to North Forest to play.
"We have a cooperative relationship now," He Yunchao held Qiao Xiyin's hand with an indifferent expression, "Be more respectful."
He looked gentle and gentle, not like he would lose his temper. The other boy's attitude was actually a little more friendly, "My name is Edmund, and those are Mike and Beverly. You should have heard that we are all students at the Imperial Academy of Magic."
He Yunchao hadn't spoken yet, but Qiao Xiyin said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Qiao Qiao, and that is my knight He Yunchao."
She seemed to be the youngest among the five, and she had a soft voice. Even Beverly's expression softened somewhat, "North Forest is very dangerous."
"We know," the little girl smiled sweetly, "It's just because it's dangerous that we want to see it."
Beverly didn't say much.
Everyone has signed their names, and the fate of life and death depends on their fate. The mercenary union does not recognize this. The innocent little girl is going to wander into the North Forest, and the people around her will not care about her. It will only be up to her.
There was only one knight guarding her, and neither of them looked very durable. She doesn't want to have a teammate who will hold her back.
"North Forest is very big. If we enter the forest now, we will probably have to spend the night in the forest," Edmund analyzed calmly, "You should be prepared."
The other people nodded one after another.
He walked at the front and led a few people out of the city.
